The Empire's First Fleet is defeated, and the calm, beautiful, undefeated First Commander Shen Que is severely injured, becoming a frail invalid.
Even more shocking news arrives:
Th...
"This asteroid belt was created during the formation of the Ikaros galaxy due to the explosion of the satellite of the White Sand Star."
The leading researcher introduced them.
"Crystallized gold sand generally grows on the three larger asteroids on the outer periphery."
"But the route the young lord drew is deep in the asteroid belt." Xingyao tapped the light screen. "He said that there are many similar symbiotic stones growing in that area. They are very beautiful."
He said, turning his head to look at the wreckage and debris flying outside the screen...
It seems to have nothing to do with the word "beautiful".
"Hmm..." The researcher frowned as he looked at Pei Ji's route.
"To be honest, we rarely go deep into the area. There's a lot of debris and wreckage there, so it's very easy for a collision to happen."
"There don't seem to be many asteroids that can accommodate human traffic," he wondered. "I wonder where the young lord got that stone from."
As the road goes deeper, there are more and more stars around.
"Eclipse Sky" circled several times among the densely packed planets and then came back.
"I'm a little confused."
His voice came from the microphone.
"It should be around here."
"What are the features near the asteroid where you got the stone?" Shen Que habitually called up the three-dimensional model.
"There's a strong gravitational vortex around there, and some turbulent currents of unknown origin. It's easy to get sucked in."
Pei Ji recalled.
"At that time, Luo Yuan and I separated to avoid the vortex, and the optical computer seemed to be disturbed a little and kept flickering."
Gravitational vortex?
Shen Que's eyes darkened.
One of the most destructive forces in the universe, any matter that comes within its range is either warped or torn apart.
"You're lucky you weren't torn into molecular pieces."
Pei Ji laughed clearly: "Not only did I not become a molecule, I also found a wedding gift for you."
Shen Que: “I didn’t praise you.”
Pei Ji felt a sour taste in his heart, and his nose also felt sore. He tried to adjust himself and pretended not to hear it.
"Actually, I'm not sure it's a gravitational vortex, but the space around it seems to be distorted. It feels very similar."
He looked at the fragments dancing peacefully around him.
"It's not such a peaceful scene anyway."
Shen Que: "Did you suddenly feel the gravity, or did you discover there was a vortex there in advance?"
Pei Ji thought for a moment and said, "It's hard to say. It's like I've gone around in circles a few times, and suddenly everything around me has changed."
Shen Que paused as he moved the model. "No other features?"
"There shouldn't be...wait!"
It was as if something suddenly lit up the depths of my brain, and the memory of a certain moment suddenly became clear.
Even Pei Ji himself was stunned for a moment.
"I think I saw a shooting star."
