NOVPUBSomewhere within the Milky Way galaxy, a fleetmmanded by Ju Ling was navigating through the universe. At that moment, a silver river adorned with endless starlight and carrying a vast current seemed to divide two worlds apart.
This was the Milky Way!
To be honest, Ju Ling was utterly astonished at the first sight of the Milky Way. Was this truly the Milky Way that spanned across the galaxy?
"Alice, how are the analysis results?" After the initial shock had passed, Ju Ling inquired.
"Incredible! Arding to Alice's analysis, this section of the Milky Way is 600 light-years wide and nearly a hundred light-years deep. The specificnditions within the Milky Way arempletely undetectable," Alice's voice was filled with wonder.
It was unimaginable. There existed such a miraculous phenomenon in the universe, even more astonishing than a black hole!
Upon divering the Milky Way, Ju Ling immediatelyntacted Su Chen, because such a special phenomenon as the Milky Way demanded attention.
Ju Ling was aware that it was the overflow of the Milky Way that had trapped the Imperial Star of the Rota Empire, leading to the loss ofntrol over it. Without the Imperial Star, the entire Rota Empire had no power to resist under the fleet of the Red Alert Empire.
Once the Red Alert Empire gainedntrol of the Milky Way galaxy, the Milky Way would also bme a trouble for them. Getting to know the Milky Way in advance was a good strategy.
Some time later, Su Chen arrived on a planet that was the closest to the Milky Way, and he was not the only one; Yun Ru and others also appeared there.
Looking at the distant and splendid Milky Way, everyone uttered exclamations of amazement.
"I never thought the Milky Way would be this beautiful. Compared to it, all other scenes pale inmparison," Yun Ru sighed.
Su Chen, however, wasnsidering a different issue: "Is the Milky Way dangerous?"
Just thinking about a river thatuld appear in the starry sky of the universe indicated that it was extraordinary, and if there were dangers within it, Su Chen had tonsider whether to bypass it.
"Based on the intelligence we've gathered from various planets, the Milky Way does indeed pose certain dangers. Any space technology bmes ineffective within the Milky Way, we can't cross it, we must traverse it," Ju Ling stated.
Su Chen frowned, space technology would fail within the Milky Way, so theyuld only rely on the speed of the warships themselves to cross it?
But with a width reaching hundreds of light-years, even if the warships were fast, it would take a very long time, wouldn't it?
"With our current warship technology, how long will it take to cross this section of the Milky Way?"
The person who answered this time was Yun Ru. A semi-transparent interface appeared in front of her, displaying a three-dimensional image of the Milky Way: "Arding to Alice's scanning and calculations,upled with the current warship technology of the Empire, it would take at least a hundred years to cross this section of the Milky Way, and that's assuming there are no unforeseen circumstances."
It was hard to imagine that it would take a hundred years just to fly out of the range of the Milky Way.
In other parts of the Milky Way galaxy, with the use of Hyperspace Teleportation Devices and Spatial Folding Devices, a great deal of timeuld be saved.
Not to mention, they had divered several wormholes in many places thatuld also shorten the journey.
"Does this mean that if we can find a narrower section, we can pass through it quickly?" Su Chen becamenscious of this possibility.
"Correct, however, we have yet to find such a place. If I'm not mistaken, such places are likely to be bustling hubs of activity, an important port."
Following that, theynducted numerous experiments on the Milky Way, essentially to assess the level of danger it posed.
Su Chen instructed Alice tontrol an ordinary warship to directly enter the pe of the Milky Way.
In an instant, the Warship, which had been soaring through the void, was inexplicably dragged away by some power, descending directly upon the surface of the Milky Way, transforming into a boat.
"This is an ability of the Milky Way; any object within its range will be drawn in, falling upon its surface. That is all there is to it," Alice explained.
Su Chen nodded,ntinuing his observation. However, as the Warship penetrated deeper, Alice's brow began to furrow. Less than ten minutes had passed when she suddenly said, "I've lostntrol of the Warship."
The fact that the Milky Wayuld sever artificial intelligence'sntrol over the Warship was a point to be noted.
"Alice, have the Warship return."
The Warship carried a fragment of Alice'snsciousness. Shouldntact be lost, that fragment would surely direct the Warship to return immediately.
Yet, ten minutes passed, then an hour, and even an entire day went by without sight of the Warship's return.
"What in the world is going on? Wasn't the Milky Way supposed to be safe?" Su Chen's eye twitched in frustration.
If this wasnsidered safe, then there were no dangerous places left in the Universe.
Fortunately, he had Alice test with the Warship first. Otherwise, if a large number of Warships ventured in, they might never return.
"Based on my analysis, once the fragment bmesnscious of the break in ournnection, it should return as quickly as possible. But it hasn't returned for such a long time; I suspect it may have gotten lost," Alice said with a slight frown.
"Are you suggesting that the Milky Way might interfere with our navigation?" Yun Ru pondered the possibility.
"It's highly likely," Alice nodded.
This experiment was just the beginning; there were many more tontinue with, for this Milky Way was a vast river that the Red Alert Empire must eventually cross.
In matters of research, Su Chenuld not intervene. Just as he was preparing to take some people back, Leng Yuwei suddenly tugged at his hand.
"Yuwei, what is it?" Su Chen asked, puzzled.
Leng Yuwei's brow was slightly furrowed, a trace ofnfusion in her eyes. She pointed towards the Milky Way, saying with some uncertainty, "I think I can sense a familiar presence inside."
Su Chen's expression changed. Whatuld make Leng Yuwei sense a familiar presence, if not that woman? 𝖓𝔬𝔳𝔭𝖚𝖇.𝔠𝔬𝖒
Could it be that a fragment of that woman was within the Milky Way?
This would be the fourth fragment he had divered—the first being Leng Yuwei herself, the snd she had absorbed, the third still at the Base. If Leng Yuwei's sense was not mistaken, then this was indeed the fourth fragment.
"Are you sure?"
"It's just a faint feeling."
Regardless, Su Chen trusted Leng Yuwei's instincts. This fragment, they had to find.
Meanwhile, deep within the Milky Way, a vast fleet was navigating its waters.
But there was something off about these fleets; their surfaces were battered and torn, some Warships were even missing large parts, and yet they still sailed upon the Milky Way, a sinister atmosphere enveloping the area.
Suddenly, a woman's voice resonated, "This sensation...uld it be other fragments? I didn't expect to find a snd fragment awakened, just like me." (To bentinued)
