Interstellar raising cubs: I rely on mobile infrastructure

"Li Jing!"

In the dark grotto, Nina was lying on the stone slab, waving her arms in disbelief.

Pulled, a huge pulling force came from the arm.

The boy raised his head and grabbed Nina with one hand.

"I'll pull you up!"

Nina gritted her teeth and leaned back, trying to pull Li Jing back to the stone slab.

The boy's body was not heavy, but it was not light either, not to mention that there was no object on this small stone slab that could be used for strength.

Nina pulled it up with all her strength, but she felt Li Jing's hand was continuously sliding down.

He didn't hold it.

"Hurry up, hurry up!"

She yelled loudly, but the boy just looked at her, with a look of unwillingness on his brows, but he continued to fall uncontrollably.

Finally, at the moment when Nina was struggling to pull up, Li Jing's hand slipped out of her palm.

The strength she had been bearing suddenly disappeared, and Nina staggered backwards and fell on the stone slab.

"what!"

Her eyes were wide open, her eyes were empty, and Li Jing's scream sounded beside her ear.

He fell, he really fell!

"Li Jing!"

Nina swooped over, but only saw a bottomless black abyss.

Li Jing's figure disappeared.

She froze, and after a moment she shouted into the abyss.

"Li Jing, are you dead?"

She frowned briefly, as if she didn't think this statement was too serious, so she quickly added.

"If you're still alive, just shout whatever you want!"

The abyss was silent, and there was no sound.

Nina froze in place, looking back at the vast darkness.

Li Jing is dead, and I am afraid that I, a sound idiot, will die here too.

"&%%..."

An indescribable mixed shout came out from the bottom of the abyss with an echo.

Hope emerges in Nina's world.

"Is that you, Li Jing!"

Without waiting for too long, Nina saw the place where Li Jing fell, and slowly rose up to a red-lit platform.

The young boy sat on top, glanced at the stone slab thoughtfully, and was fiddling with the lighting device in his hands.

"You're not dead?"

As soon as Li Jing came up, he saw Nina questioning her with an unbelievable expression.

He felt a little uncomfortable.

"Do you really want this superstar to die?"

The young man snorted coldly and laughed wildly.

"Then you should die. This superstar won't die in such a strange place for no reason."

Nina was speechless all over her face, and smiled helplessly with her eyelids down.

Li Jing didn't immerse himself in arrogant emotions for too long, and soon put on a serious expression.

"I seem to realize something."

"We should be in the capsule, and the thing that connects the two grottoes may be light."

Nina blinked and murmured thoughtfully.

"capsule?"

"You mean the parallel space, the capsule used to guard against outsiders entering?"

"Yes."

She nodded knowingly, and quickly asked the next question.

"What do you mean by connected things? What's wrong with light?"

Li Jing frowned tightly, waving his arm without a bright lighting device.

"I'm just guessing."

"Previously we thought that the reason the lighting fixtures weren't working was that it was absorbing light."

He pointed to the red-lit platform beneath his feet.

"But the light emitted by the platform can normally illuminate an area. Only the lighting system we brought in and the light from the detector cannot be maintained."

"Could it be that this light was absorbed and transferred to Sister Wu Yu, their area?"

Nina was thinking seriously, fiddling with the detector in her hand.

"Energy doesn't just disappear, quite possibly."

"And there will indeed be some communication between the spaces where the capsules unfold at the same time."

Following this thought, Li Jing continued to develop the remaining possibilities.

"Well, when I fell just now, this platform appeared out of thin air under my body."

"It's different from other platforms, it emits red light."

"Perhaps this is the impact of another grotto."

"At the same time that we are affecting their environment, they are changing our environment."

The young boy lowered his eyes, and under the red light, his long eyelashes were coated with a strange and soul-stirring color like fresh blood.

"Is it the sound?"

"We have been unable to contact them. Perhaps the key element in the middle circulation is the voice."

Nina roughly understood, and then shouted a few times around, but didn't hear an answer.

She breathed a sigh of relief, and continued to output.

"Anyway, let's move on."

Li Jing stood still and started a new round of attempts.

Only this time, it wasn't as smooth as before.

The number of squares lit up in front is somewhat small.

Moreover, I haven't found the nearest stone slab lit up yet, even the one under Nina's feet hasn't been lit up yet.

"what happened?"

Listening to Nina's questioning voice, Li Jing raised his eyebrows.

"I'll try a rising and falling pitch, or a lower pitch, a higher pitch."

He tried several notes one after another, and several slates lit up not far away.

But the stone slab under his feet was still not lit.

Li Jing's expression became more and more serious, and his brows became higher and higher.

"I will try again."

Before Nina could say anything, Li Jing started to make some high and low notes that Nina thought shouldn't be made by humans.

The tone-deaf lady had a look of shock on her face.

Fortunately, there is a professional, otherwise, who can make this kind of voice.

This time, the stone slab under Nina's feet finally lit up.

She looked into the distance, and compared the approximate order of the lit slates just now, she clicked.

"Not enough, certainly not enough."

"The number of these illuminated slates must be much worse."

Li Jing's eyes looked into the distance, he was hesitant at first, and then a playful smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth.

There is a little wildness in the smile, as if facing a challenge, full of excitement.

"It seems that this superstar has really guessed it, but he may face a lot of trouble."

Hearing the boy's hearty voice, Nina suddenly formed a guess in her heart.

"Isn't it those stone slabs, it depends on Sister Wu Yu and that guy to light them up."

Li Jing nodded casually, without stopping to smile.

"Well, most likely yes."

Nina felt her scalp go numb, and her body even had goosebumps from the cold.

"It's crazy, how is it possible?"

"Let's not say that we can't communicate with each other, even if we can—"

"Can they really hum such difficult notes accurately?"

Li Jing smoothed his hair, and was startled at that moment.

He seemed to be aware of the disappearance of the helmet and protective clothing, but soon calmed down.

"The first lesson taught by this superstar is to trust your companions."

"If you can't trust your life in the hands of your companions, it's better to go all the way alone."

Li Jing seemed to be very proud of his words, and a complacent look gradually appeared on his face.

Nina had nothing to say, looked at the young boy's face and wanted to open her mouth, but finally stopped.

"Um, big star?"

"Why, are you overwhelmed by the demeanor of this superstar?"

Nina controlled her eyes from rolling to the sky.

"All in all, let's go forward a few stone slabs first."
