Chapter 641 - 314: Tycoon Seeking a Powerful Ally
The simple artificial black hole, supported by abundant energy resources and various technical personnel, finally succeeded within a predetermined time frame. Yu Feng’s military warship, though idle for two years, had no issues operating in any part.
To support longer travel times, all energy resources that could be scavenged were unearthed to the fullest extent, and apart from the empty rooms, there was nothing left in the entire base that could be reused—all had been moved aboard that military warship.
Under the guise of a military warship, its defense capabilities were naturally exceptional. When the artificial wormhole was torn open, producing extremely terrifying fragmented turbulent flows, this warship remained unshaken, steadily navigating into the turbulent wormhole.
Although expected earlier, when it truly happened in reality, even Yu Feng couldn’t resist being overjoyed and showed emotion. After all, he and the people in the base have been in a desperate environment for so long that finally seeing the dawn of life inevitably brings smiles.
"Thank you... I won’t forget your kindness." Yu Feng found Su Jiameng and sincerely said, "Without you, I can’t imagine what the future would be like... Even though I have ways to solve it, the wait was too long, long enough to drive me crazy before leaving."
"It doesn’t matter, saving you also means saving myself? We’re merely mutually beneficial, seeking a win-win path to survival." Su Jiameng felt excited but deliberately controlled herself, not letting her emotions get too high. This is just the beginning; there’s still a long road ahead, and she doesn’t qualify to be happy yet. "We’ll wait half an hour more, and then start the first Space Jump, right?"
Yu Feng nodded and spoke naturally, "That’s correct, but this artificial wormhole’s environment isn’t safe. Its stability is too low, making a Space Jump here very difficult. If anything goes wrong, we might be utterly destroyed."
Therefore, they need to calculate even more precisely to ensure nothing goes awry! He has waited for far too long for this moment...
Su Jiameng also understood the stakes and naturally knew that haste won’t suffice. She could only quietly wait while those high-intelligence technical personnel checked the data to determine when to perform the first jump. Soon after, Yu Feng went to the control room to oversee operations, while Su Jiameng quietly meditated in the hallway of the training room, waiting until the entire warship’s broadcast sounded...
[Attention everyone, attention please, the warship will undergo its first Space Jump in three minutes. If there are any occurrences such as power outages or vibrations, please stay calm. The jump will last ten minutes before everything returns to normal... Announcing again, attention everyone, attention please, the warship will...] The synthesized electronic female voice sounded, gentle yet dignified, very much to Su Jiameng’s liking.
Due to it being the first jump, coupled with the instability of this artificial wormhole, the shake during the jump was significant. Fortunately, they endured this once, and ten minutes later, the paused power system returned to normal. Su Jiameng continued to meditate silently, the cold gleam of Xi beside her flickering. Now, only this knife accompanied her, preventing loneliness and confusion.
The second jump occurred ten hours later, lasting fifteen minutes... In this silent wormhole, the passage of time seems utterly meaningless. Inside the wormhole, there is no specific time, no light, no sound, everything outside is pitch black, and nothing can be seen, like a world desolated to its extreme, seemingly abandoned.
She remembers clearly, back when liaised with Major General Su, the troops marched hastily, jumping space almost every half hour. During the jump, people’s senses would get confused, and maintaining this state for a long time is very harmful to the human body.
However, now... she hopes every jump could be shorter, while the maintained duration could be longer...
Because only then, the hope of escape will be greater. She took a deep breath, trying to keep her senses clear. Severe confusion could cause major trouble. Perhaps a lot of time has passed, perhaps only a few days, after finishing a nutrient-rich meal, Yu Feng came bringing unfortunate news... Although she felt this news was a bit frustrating.
"We’re running out of energy..." Yu Feng’s eyes were bloodshot, his whole being falling into a state of despair, looking somewhat scruffy, not as spirited as before. "I underestimated the surrounding environment; this area has many spatial turbulent flows causing great difficulty for the jump and unnecessary energy waste... resulting in energy exceeding expectations..."
