Chapter 75 Riding the Gravity Flow

When Bai Xing and Xu Min discovered that the aircraft and ship were being pulled by unknown forces, they could no longer escape.

Although they knew that Xu Min's decision was equivalent to crossing the river by touching stones, none of them thought that they would stray into the undercurrent of the river.

None of them started to steer the rudder, but the aircraft and ship seemed to have activated automatic homing, heading in the same direction as the meteorites passing by.

The road ahead is pitch black.

"Look on the bright side, at least no one is chasing us now." Bai Xing looked at Xu Min who was frantically searching for detailed records of their current location on the star map, and tried to comfort her.

Xu Min was a little upset that she could still remain calm at this time. "The star map doesn't show our location at all. You still have the heart to make sarcastic remarks."

"Normally, people have only explored less than 35% of the entire galaxy." Bai Xing tilted his head and looked at her, "We are riding on the gravitational flow in the galaxy."

Xu Min was stunned for a while, and then he remembered what the gravitational flow in Bai Xing's mouth was.

"Turn off the kinetic energy, don't waste fuel." Bai Xing suggested after seeing her face slowly calm down. "If we are lucky enough, we will encounter a pouring port at the end of the gravity flow. At that time, fuel operations will be needed."

"What if you are unlucky?" Xu Min asked quietly.

If they are unlucky... they encounter a gravitational flow that stably forms a Möbius strip... or the end point of this gravitational flow is far enough away that they will not be able to reach it even if their lifespan is exhausted.

But who can say for sure about this kind of thing? In my impression, there are very few people who have successfully encountered and reached the end of the gravitational flow. Basically, all they can leave to the world are some last words whose location cannot be traced.

"I just said it, think on the bright side..." Bai Xing leaned back on the driver's seat, obviously resigned to his fate, and narrowed his eyes to fall asleep.

For the first time, Xu Min listened to her words and reduced all the kinetic energy of the aircraft and ship to a minimum and entered a dormant state.

All lights in the cabin were also turned off, leaving only the emergency lights to provide weak and limited illumination.

Bai Xing was very conflicted. She didn't know whether to send a message to the Annihilators at this time to explain her current situation.

But as soon as she made the beginning, she felt that the light brain signal was coming and going.

forget it.

Bai Xing felt very tired, and the hard emotions that had accumulated since yesterday came rushing back. She just wanted to close her eyes and have a good sleep. Maybe when she woke up, they would arrive at a safe place.

She turned sideways, pressing the part where the gun was stored tightly under her body, and blocked it with her hands, then folded her arms and fell asleep lightly.

I don't know how long it has been...

She was awakened by a regular tapping sound.

When he opened his eyes again, the cabin was still dark.

tom!tom!
Bai Xing suddenly straightened up her upper body from the driver's seat. The sore shoulder seemed to cause a burst of paralysis in her arm. Only then did Bai Xing remember that her shoulder was still injured.

Bai Xing subconsciously touched the gun and felt its presence before she found another person in the cabin.

Where is Xu Min?
She was not in the cockpit, but the safety door to the aisle was ajar.

tom!
There was another knock, and Bai Xing stood up, holding his breath and listening carefully.

There seems to be something strange.

Bai Xing waited for a while, but did not hear the knocking sound. However, she was surprised to find that they seemed to have left the gravitational flow, the machine hovered, and came to an unknown territory...

She couldn't sum up the current situation immediately, so she could only quickly turn on the optical brain, planning to check the time and contact Luo Luo or Annihilator, whoever it was.no signal!

Bai Xing was a little flustered. In the darkness, she tried to shout twice in the direction of the aisle.

"Xu Min, Xu Min..."

Fortunately, her call was quickly answered, and the sound of neat footsteps was immediately heard from the aisle.

It was Xu Min. She returned to the cab from the aisle in a panic. When she entered the cab, she actually had a machine gun in her hand.

She opened the safety door of the cab and closed the door firmly with her backhand. On her shoulder, she also carried a machine gun of the same model.

"What's going on?" Bai Xing lowered his voice and watched as the other party nervously came to her side and stuffed the machine gun into her arms. "We escaped the gravitational flow? When did it happen?"

"You've been sleeping for six hours." Xu Min's breath was a little unsteady. "But I also fell asleep. When I woke up, we were here."

Bai Xing held onto the machine gun and heard Xu Min's somewhat hasty and confused voice, "I feel like something is... crawling outside the fuselage."

A gust of cold air climbed up Shirahoshi's arms, instantly causing goosebumps.

"What do you mean?"

"Can't you understand?" Xu Min cursed in a low voice, "They are living creatures, crawling outside the fuselage, and they are hitting our aircraft and ship."

Impact?Could it be that the sound that woke her up just now was the living thing in Xu Min's mouth?

"How are you sure..."

"I heard it!" Xu Min repeated: "I heard it while sticking to the cabin! I heard the sound of claws scratching the machine."

Bai Xing closed his mouth and looked down at the gun in his hand.

"What the hell is this place? Your optical brain, your optical brain has no signal, right?" Seeing her silence, Xu Min started to circle in front of her like a headless fly.

"No more." Shirahoshi began to load the machine gun. "Have you tried starting the machine gun?"

"Should we do this?" Xu Min asked doubtfully.

"I don't know, but if you want to wait here for those things in your mouth to leave, then I can wait with you." Bai Xing also said with an uncertain tone, "But..." After saying this, the voice outside the fuselage The crashing sound came again.

"But if these things don't go away, we can't stay here forever. What kind of place is this?"

Xu Min was also at a loss.

"You decide." Bai Xing held the gun in his arms. "As you said, I will listen to your arrangements throughout the process."

After thinking twice, Xu Min decided to start the machine, get to know the surrounding situation first, and if possible, quickly leave this strange area.

Both of them returned to the driver's seat holding the machine gun. Under Xu Min's operation, the aircraft slowly woke up, and the lights in the cockpit immediately turned on.

At the same time, the spotlight on the front of the aircraft and ship was also turned on, and the scene in front of the aircraft and ship was immediately displayed in front of the two men.

It was really dark all around, and the spotlights in the cabin could only illuminate an area less than ten meters from the front. In this visible area, there were many objects suspended in mid-air, pulled by only one thread. Oval tumor.

The sizes of these nodules are very uniform, but the hovering heights are inconsistent. Among the closer nodules, the spotlight even penetrates the shell of the nodule, reflecting a immersed in the flow. In the liquid, there is a substantial object similar to a shrimp with a long tail.
