"Prepare to initiate the jump."
The elderly, infirm, and disabled on the luxury ship stayed in their respective rooms, under the serious command of Lu Yan and the bald man in the autopilot cockpit.
The bald man's voice was broadcast throughout the luxury ship via the loudspeaker, while the crew continued with their work, completely unconcerned about any unforeseen events.
They used to make jumps frequently when they were in a hurry or escaping, so this trip was just a regular occurrence for all the crew members, a small side dish to accompany their drinks.
Lu Yan, sitting in the autopilot cabin, thought differently.
The bald man stood to one side, pointing his rough fingers at the screen in front of him, and said, "Look, there is a new wormhole here. If we cannot successfully jump over it, we may be forced to be sucked into the wormhole and fall into spacetime chaos."
"Should we abandon this mission and tell Lu Mingming the truth?"
Lu Yan then asked, "How much fuel and energy do we have left?"
The bald man took out the forms from his pocket and placed them on the table, analyzing them for Lu Yan one by one: "Over 80%, more than enough to use the security system's auto-start function. But I still feel a little uneasy..."
Contrary to his rugged appearance, the bald man was a very meticulous and cautious person.
"Go for it. With me here, no one will get hurt. Hopefully, there's still time. The worst outcome is ending up in Sin City."
Despite giving the orders, Lu Yan remained seated in the control room, unwilling to leave. His calm, unwavering eyes were fixed on the approaching wormhole.
Inside the room.
"Please locate the safe room in each room; we are about to perform a jump."
Fortunately, there was a small sticker on the wall of the room indicating the location of the safe room.
Lu Mingming, holding Hongyu, opened the secret passage in the wardrobe, where a completely transparent, semi-enclosed crystal coffin was quietly placed at the very back.
The crystal-sealed coffin was filled with various kinds of nutrient solutions, with a breathing mask placed to the side, and anti-collision and protection systems installed around it.

Lu Mingming changed into special clothes, put on a helmet and breathing mask, and made the same set for the cub, holding it in her arms as they tried to lie down together in the safe room.
It felt like being in a coffin…
Lu Mingming made random associations, letting the nutrient solution slowly rise from her ankles to her chest and abdomen, eventually submerging her entire head, sinking step by step into the light, floating aquatic environment.
I hope everything goes smoothly and we arrive safely on Earth.
Lu Mingming made a silent wish in her heart.
The safe house faces a sealed window, through which the dreamlike starry sky slowly recedes.
As time passed, the stars gradually disappeared from sight, turning into shooting stars and sliding backward, which could be used to guess the speed of the giant ship.
Meanwhile, the increasingly high frequency of the giant ship's movement gradually matched the frequency of Lu Mingming's breathing.
Although it wasn't a true leap, the excessive speed made Lu Mingming's heart pound wildly, and his back felt as if it were being weighed down by a thousand pounds, making it almost impossible to breathe.
Her face was deathly pale, and she involuntarily bit her lip. A thin layer of sweat appeared on her temples, wetting the hair around her face.

The colors of everything in front of me seemed to be accelerating, receding into small blocks of color, or distorting into black and white patterns.
The little cub in Lu Mingming's arms was also not feeling well.
Hongyu, who was already seasick, clung tightly to Lumingming's slender arm.
Beads of sweat appeared on the little guy's nose, and waves of dizziness made him curl up in discomfort.
He used to be the head of a clan, how could he have suffered such a torment?
Outside the ship, many crew members who were working stopped what they were doing, crouched down with their heads in their hands, and tried to find a place to lean on to stabilize their center of gravity.
"What's going on? Why is this jump so unstable?"
"Let's find somewhere to hide quickly. Hopefully, we haven't encountered one of the 5% of crises..."
"Please, I haven't earned ten million star coins yet! I haven't used the money to get married! I absolutely cannot die!!"
While they were talking, an announcement came over the loudspeaker: "Everyone get ready, we will reach the jump point in ten seconds."

Ten, nine, eight…
The moment the bald man's voice appeared, it served as a stabilizing force for everyone.
Lu Mingming hugged Hongyu tightly, comforting himself: Just ten more seconds and we'll get through this safely. Keep going!
The bald man's tone abruptly changed the next second, followed by a series of crisp knocking sounds from the broadcast and his forced calm reminder.
"An emergency has occurred! On my orders, all crew members, proceed to the underground safe room. The wormhole ahead is unavoidable, and we will have to change our planned warp route!"
Her words were abruptly cut off amidst the spatial distortion, leaving behind only the faint hum of a busy electrical current.
The crew members were on high alert and dropped all pretense, running with all their might towards the underground safe room to escape for their lives.
Lu Mingming's breath hitched, and her thoughts strangely calmed down.
She gently patted the back of the cub in her arms to comfort it, and tried to gaze at the scenery outside the window.
The stars in the sky had lost their usual silvery glow, their original appearance unrecognizable. They looked like a ribbon stretched into a line, or a sharp sword shooting forward, as if everything had been torn and stretched by an invisible giant hand.
