Chapter 328 327. Frozen Storm

After taking stock of the harvest, Lloyd was a little tired. He wanted to take a short nap before the 'rescue cabin' had 'landed', but not long after he closed his eyes, there was a sudden sound in his head. Severe dizziness and discomfort.

Why am I 'jet lagged'?

He quickly took out the 'Synchronized Hourglass', knocked it a few times to eliminate the discomfort, and then took out his pocket watch and took a look at the real time outside.

It's still afternoon...

Then, Lloyd came up with another inspiration and used the [projection] outside the 'rescue cabin' to check the status of the space storm.

He found that the relative position of his current space was far away from the storm and also far away from the academy.

Therefore, the 'time period' we are in is synchronized to the present world.

At the same time, because of the change in the speed of time, the previously turbulent space storm that seemed to be sweeping the world suddenly became calm?

But they did not disappear, but because of the speed difference of time, they suddenly became very slow, as if they were frozen, presenting a very unique spectacle.

Lloyd felt something in his heart for a moment, and quickly focused his whole body on the solidified storm, quietly admiring it, or greedily comprehending it.

But they are so 'fragile' and so 'changeable' in this alien space...

Then, Lloyd reached out his hand casually, mobilized the spiritual power in his body, and at the same time opened the [Realm of Distortion], and then drew a square frame in the air.

But he smiled for no reason, and then threw the instrument back into the storage bag.

So theoretically speaking, Mizkatok at this time is in an embarrassing situation where he can't get in and can't get out.

It was truly a past worth remembering and yearning for.

Lloyd sighed sincerely in his heart, and continued to think about these messy, complex and profound issues.

No calculations were made, no instruments were used, just a simple swipe, and the portal opened smoothly.

Lloyd couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

He felt that he no longer had any use for this kind of thing.

Even without pushing the door open, he knew there was Mizkatok behind it.

If the previous experience of being in the center of the storm was more detailed and microscopic, then this current distant observation is a more holistic and macroscopic observation.

But the concept of [space] can be said to be the cornerstone of shaping the world; and [time] can be regarded as the cornerstone of human thinking, rationality, and even the entire civilization on a certain level...

So he slightly modified his current plan and took out the space pocket watch from his arms.

What's more, that space storm is currently sweeping through Mizkatok, and the corresponding coordinates and readings are probably already a mess.

Until the 'rescue cabin' was getting closer and closer to the real world, beyond his observation range, and he could no longer appreciate the frozen space storm.

And based on his current spatial location, he is already very far away from Mizkatok. Ordinary space equipment cannot open a portal at such a distance.

How amazing!

How did humans in the glorious age discover this kind of alien space, and how did they establish areas like Mizkatok or the Dream Theater in it?

At this moment, Lloyd experienced the incomprehensible gap between the new era and the old era in a more profound way. The gap was so big that it seemed like two completely different civilizations.

But enough is enough...

But Lloyd was still able to open the portal accurately.

He could probably feel that in this mysterious, strange, and unpredictable space, [time] and [space], two concepts that should have been very objective, had become unstable and unstable, as if they could be manipulated arbitrarily. Fiddle with and modify in general.

The space at his fingertips was like a weak bubble that was easily pulled away, revealing a portal inside.

His [Space Control] skill has not been upgraded, but his previous distant view of the freezing storm made his understanding of space suddenly take a big step forward, and his 'ability range' has been greatly improved.

Lloyd had a vague sense of confidence that he might be able to do something that Professor Lawrence couldn't do with the help of [Space Control], right?

He couldn't help but smile and sighed in a low voice:

"It's a pity that we can only play like this in a different space. It would be great if we could have such freedom in this world."

With that said, he turned back and picked up the still unconscious lecturer and teaching assistant, threw them into the portal, and then walked in casually.

And this temporary rescue capsule made of half a canteen, Lloyd did not abandon it, but guided it to continue slowly drifting towards the present world, feeling that it might still be useful in the future.

…………………… Time goes back to a slightly earlier time, when the space storm just started.

"Professor! I observed the traces of the space elevator's operation. They are back!"

Researcher Dandy looked at the series of data in front of him and suddenly burst into excitement.

He was supposed to be on vacation in this world today, but he encountered this unprecedented storm and was forcibly called back by Professor Lawrence.

At this time, there were more people in the laboratory than when Lloyd first came in. The entire space department was basically gathered together. Lecturers, teaching assistants, researchers, and even students were all gathered here, and except for Professor Lawrence , and two other professors studying other fields were present.

Even the location of the entire laboratory has changed, from the original single floor to three floors, as if three laboratories were superimposed. Various people can be seen busy in it, and there are even more people in mid-air. Various light curtains and data are flying.

The good news brought by Dandy injected a boost of excitement into the already solemn atmosphere, and a series of cheers suddenly sounded in the laboratory:

"Okay, okay! They are finally back. It's not worth wasting my vacation to come back!"

"Haha, didn't I just say that before? The space elevator built by our equipment department is very strong and reliable. They will definitely be able to come back!"

"They were so lucky to be able to escape from this storm? It is said that the person driving the elevator is a freshman? Isn't it amazing?"

"Okay, okay, now that people are back, let's continue to observe the data. This is an unprecedented super storm."

"Ah? Are you still in the mood for observation? I just want to run away. I'm afraid the academy won't be able to survive such a terrible storm, right?"

"Shut up! Our mission now is to protect the academy, or you can try it. Can you still escape?"

Professor Lawrence breathed a long sigh of relief when he heard such good news, and couldn't help but curse in his heart:

This guy Lloyd didn't know how to come back early. He had to go to such an extreme. It really raised my blood pressure. I must criticize and educate him when I go back!

As he said that, he looked back at the other two professors who were in the highest level area with him.

The two men, named Pierce and Albert, were responsible for basic theoretical research and space equipment development respectively.

Although they are both in the space department, the three professors have different ideas and their personal relationship is not very good. Professor Lawrence often compares the two professors to 'old academics in the ivory tower'.

But at this critical moment of life and death, everyone can still put aside their prejudices and unite to resist the disaster.

After hearing the good news, the two professors breathed a sigh of relief, and then complained bitterly in their arms:

"Although they are back, Lawrence, your abruptness and recklessness still almost caused a disaster. You would actually send a freshman to participate in such an important operation? I think you are really crazy!"

"Yes, this is really hard to understand. Why would you trust a freshman so much? Are you stupid?"

Faced with the accusations from his two colleagues, Professor Lawrence did not refute, but looked down at the busy students and researchers in the laboratories on the two floors below.

There are only so many people in the space department. If you refute yourself and let the following people know about Lloyd's magic and outrageousness, it's hard to say how many people can survive...

So Professor Lawrence simply said nothing, looking like he was lying down and letting the ridicule go, and he did not provide any explanation for his thoughts.

The two professors didn't hold on to it. They still had a lot of things to do, but that didn't mean they would let go of Professor Lawrence's major mistake easily. It was just not the time for internal strife right now.

"The space elevator is about to arrive at the academy. Judging from the trajectory, there is some deviation from the scheduled landing area. It should land..."

Researcher Dandy below continued to talk, and then suddenly there was a hint of smile in his tone, and he added:

"It will just fall on the Knowledge Square and hit the sculpture on the head..."

There were a few chuckles of schadenfreude in the laboratory.

But soon they stopped laughing...

"Oops! The flow of this storm is shifting! It has deviated from the trajectory we previously calculated and turned...directly towards the college!"

A researcher looked at the changing data in front of him and exclaimed with a livid face.

Then came a series of exclamations and wails:

"What?! Why is there an inexplicable deviation?"

"Oops! If you just pass by the academy, it might be okay, but if you log in directly here at the academy, then..."

"How could this happen? Then what should we do? The scale of this storm is too exaggerated. With the current defense of the college, it may be difficult to survive, right?"

"I'll tell you! I told you before! We can't escape! We will all die here! I shouldn't have gone back to the academy today!"
