Chapter 157
After the church deacon left, the taskers in the area dispersed in tacit understanding.
Those who fight fight, and those who trade trade.
Because she completed the task efficiently, she actually aroused the fear of other taskers, which invisibly saved Ye Bai a lot of trouble. Seeing that she chose a direction to leave, the people nearby tacitly avoided her.
The farther away from the wormhole area, the darker and deeper the surroundings become. With Ye Bai's eyesight, he can only see a little faint starlight from who knows how many light years away.
Fortunately, with the improvement of her mental strength, the psychological fear that some intelligent creatures would experience during their fragile periods in Ye Bai basically disappeared. Flying alone in such an environment, she no longer had any strange feelings. Instead, she kept her distance while sorting out the gains of this trip.
Two thousand star points that can be used flexibly, and the manufacturing technology of the rare material Youci.
No wonder as soon as the mission appeared, one hundred B-level and A-level psychics willing to participate were quickly gathered. Ye Bai's reward for first place was of course the most generous, but other ordinary taskers would not be too bad either. At least it would be much more stable and generous than earning points in the trading area.
Of course, what is probably more attractive to the taskers is that the Church of the Stars also possesses technologies that are even rarer and more advanced than those in the exchange zone.
What appeared in the exchange area now was obviously the second-level technology that had been screened. Ye Bai could see the clues when he saw it for the first time, not to mention other people who had been active in the chaotic star sea for a long time.
Then, Ye Bai recalled the content of today's mission and was still full of doubts.
After actually getting involved in the task of closing the wormhole, she could clearly feel that it was not structurally stable, and perhaps its 'front' was different from the wormhole in the solar system that she knew.
After all, the latter can accommodate a large number of spacecraft to pass stably and can be compared to a stable tunnel, while the former gives Ye Bai the feeling of being a precarious natural crack that may collapse at any time.
Ye Bai felt that the tasks he had done before were somewhat like filling the cracks.
But what was the purpose of doing this? The Church of the Stars didn't look like a charitable organization, and there were no living creatures in this desolate deep space, so the meaning of "environmental protection" was really unclear.
Or...it has something to do with the wormhole connection?
Ye Bai looked up at the uninhabited deep space. The wormhole had been filled, but its impact on the surrounding space still remained.
She extended her mental power, searching for a faint spatial ripple, and then used the same method she had used to mobilize gravitational waves to close the wormhole to influence the weak spot.
The difference is that the previous task was to smooth out the fluctuations, but Ye Bai is doing the opposite this time.
After a while, she stopped.
This attempt was extremely inefficient. Ye Bai consumed one-third of his mental energy, but the impact he could cause was less than one percent of that at the wormhole.
"never mind."
Shaking his head, Ye Bai gave up trying to satisfy his curiosity and prepared to go back.
Perhaps it was because the Church of the Stars was wealthy, or perhaps it was because the location of this place was special and it was impossible to use the wormhole in the redemption area for teleportation. Instead, after the mission was completed, Ye Bai received the same free mission teleportation as when he came here.
Even though there was no one else around at this time, she still carefully positioned the other end of the wormhole near the asteroid belt, some distance away from the black hole's lair.
Having never personally used space technology before, Ye Bai was not familiar with it. After activating the wormhole, he had more detailed feelings.
Different from the feeling of a large wormhole that affects the entire body, the micro wormhole gives Ye Bai the feeling of a bullet that can temporarily penetrate space, so each time it appears, it is extremely short, and the user is like following the trajectory of the bullet, passing through the briefly formed cavity.
Although he didn't understand where the power to fire this "bullet" came from, Ye Bai suddenly had an inspiration when he saw this scene.
As the temporary wormhole was opened, wrinkles appeared in the space, and the weak spot that Ye Bai was unable to push just now became more obvious.
Seizing this opportunity, Ye Bai mobilized his mental strength and tried again.
"Bang..."
This time, after investing a large amount of mental power in a reverse manner, Ye Bai felt that she had finally succeeded in breaking through a certain crack. Her spiritual body even made a crisp sound as if it were an illusion.
Ye Bai felt that his mental power broke through this space and explored some unknown place.
However, there was silence on the other side.
Ye Bai had used Insight at an extremely fast speed, but had not obtained any information. If it were not for the obvious feedback before, she would probably have thought that everything was just an illusion.
The next moment, the wormhole structure was completed and appeared in front of Ye Bai.
The aftermath of the final impact of the "bullet" covered the weak spot that Ye Bai had broken through before, like a wave. She immediately retracted the mental power she had extended before the gap was covered.
Perhaps there's another similarly silent space across the way, or perhaps it's the dark universe or something...
"It's better not to be curious."
Ye Bai whispered and shook his head, then stepped into the wormhole without delay.
The exchange area wormhole cannot be used here. If you miss this wormhole, it will be troublesome to go back.
A familiar feeling of traveling through time came over him. At this time, Ye Bai had put aside his previous thoughts and started thinking about the relevant matters regarding the production of ghost magnetism.
Suddenly, the roots of Ye Bai's hair hidden under the irregular mimicry stood up one by one.
A stream... or rather many streams, which she could hardly describe, like a torrent of mental power and information, suddenly descended and poured down on her head.
It’s not quite right to say that it was drenching, that was just the feeling at the beginning.
Immediately afterwards, Ye Bai, who was traveling through time, felt that he had lost his physical body, leaving only the spiritual body that dominated his consciousness, and he was hit head-on by a surging wave of information.
Whispers, knowledge, dynamic images... countless information poured towards Ye Bai.
She was swept up by the strong impact and instinctively wanted to remember something and keep something, but everything was too much and too fast. Even trying to capture this behavior made Ye Bai's mind fall into a numb stagnation.
Because the information could not be received, it finally penetrated Ye Bai's spiritual body and disappeared just as suddenly as it appeared.
It seemed like an eternity had passed, but when I thought about it carefully, it seemed like less than three seconds had passed.
“Buzz buzz buzz—”
When Ye Bai regained his self-awareness, he was covering his head and floating in the empty space. Not far ahead, there was a familiar meteorite belt.
What just happened…?
Ye Bai retrieved the memory in her mind, and with another buzzing sound in her brain, she vaguely remembered the information that she had tried her best to understand and remember.
"Don't get caught."
"Beware... the stars."
Ye Bai murmured these two sentences, which were the only information she understood in the flood of information.
Other than that, all that remained of her memory was a small flash.
Ye Bai couldn't even tell what the flash was, but as the only surviving image, it was obviously very important, and... it inexplicably gave her a sense of déjà vu.
But no matter how hard she tried to recall, she could not find any clues.
His body instinctively absorbed cosmic energy to restore his mental strength. After a long while, Ye Bai finally let go of his hands that were supporting his head.
After seeing the environment in front of her, her expression changed again.
There is a deviation of several hundred kilometers between this place and the teleportation location that Ye Bai had previously located. Although a few hundred kilometers can be considered "short" on the scale of space, it is impossible for this distance to be the distance that Ye Bai could float unconsciously when he lost consciousness.
Rather, the positioning of the micro wormhole has deviated.
Was it because of the sudden flood of information? Apart from this explanation, Ye Bai couldn't find any other reason.
Moreover, it was obvious that the flood of information that appeared during the previous shuttle was also due to the attempt that Ye Bai had made on a whim just a moment ago.
But Ye Bai never expected that just an attempt out of curiosity would cause such a change when traveling through the wormhole.
——Even if there is something on the 'other side' of the wormhole, why is there such a delay in the reaction!
Ye Bai habitually complained in his heart, and then countless questions followed...
What is this sudden flood of information? Who is it coming from? Is it well-intentioned or malicious?
At the same time, the message to Ye Bai mentioned "don't be discovered". Who did she want to avoid being discovered? What did she have that she didn't want others to discover?
...Is Ye Bai Bai Ye's identity? Or is it about her knowledge of the Wanjie strategy?
Thinking of this, Ye Bai frowned. This was her biggest secret. Perhaps the Star Alliance had already guessed this secret, but no one in the Chaos Star Sea knew it yet.
But the huge torrent of information that conveyed such content that seemed to be "caring" about her was really difficult for Ye Bai to understand and seemed illogical.
And the last part, "Beware of the Stars"... is it referring to the Church of the Stars? Or perhaps, the "god" that this church believes in?
The torrent of information was so vast that even Ye Bai, an atheist, felt that it could only be described as a "god".
And the Church of the Stars called on psychics to seal the wormhole. Was this to limit the opening of the passage "over there"? But if that was the case, then the Church of the Stars was taking it too lightly.
If someone tried like Ye Bai, wouldn't they also be able to obtain information? Wouldn't the Church of Stars be afraid of being discovered?
Taking a deep breath, Ye Bai, feeling that his strength had been restored, tried to sense the surrounding space again.
"It really doesn't work..."
If it was the "water surface" before, now the space is like the surface of crystallized ice.
Moreover, after this shock, Ye Bai would never dare to make the same attempt again. Whether the flood of information was well-intentioned or malicious, she should be vigilant.
After sorting out his thoughts, Ye Bai flashed and quickly rushed back to the Ether Laboratory.
