Chapter 1044

The reason is very simple.

Even when they were being as careful as possible.

They still couldn't 100% avoid being injured by spatial rifts.

When damaged severely, they had to use evolution points for repairs.

Fortunately.

The Cui Can Fleet had plenty of evolution points.

That was truly plenty.

Therefore, it didn't affect anything.

The little chatterbox Qin Fuyue gradually became quiet.

The originally quiet people became even more reticent.

Perhaps it was the 100% unconditional trust in Xu Zi'an in their hearts.

That kept their emotions from losing composure.

Additionally, over these three months.

Ever since the discovery of the Purple Qi Coming from the East.

Perhaps it was because their luck had run out.

Around them, they hadn't seen even a tiny bit of anything else.

Not even meteorite dust.

This absolute vacuum environment was so empty that there was truly nothing.

No light.

No radiation.

No visible matter of any kind.

Only the omnipresent dark matter and bio-energy.

Although there was dark matter here too.

But the dark matter between the positive and anti-universes was clearly unable to interconnect or communicate.

It was like a thick barrier, dividing them into two completely different worlds.

Perhaps the only thing worth being happy about.

Was that the barrier didn't seem as unreachable as Xu Zi'an had imagined.

At least according to the observations over the past three months, the barrier that was originally estimated to take ten or several decades to reach.

Seemed to be reachable in three to five years at most.

I don't know if it's because the anti-universe is also moving like the positive universe, and both universes are moving simultaneously, causing the distance between them to shorten.

Regardless.

From the original journey of ten or several decades to the current three to five years...

Xu Zi'an could accept it.

Checking the time.

Xu Zi'an said into the communicator: "Let's take a break."

"Since we came in, it seems we haven't had hotpot, right? Let's have some hot..."

This time.

Xu Zi'an still hadn't finished his sentence!

Bai Xiaoyuan's joyful voice suddenly rang out in the communicator.

"Wait!"

"I've made a discovery!"

"It seems... it seems... Hiss!!! This, this is a starship?!"

"Heavens!!!"

"A starship!!! I see a starship!!!"

Bai Xiaoyuan was full of shock.

Xu Zi'an's expression went blank.

Last time he mentioned hotpot, they discovered the Purple Qi Coming from the East.

This time he mentioned hotpot, they discovered a starship?!

So.

Is it heaven's will that I shouldn't have hotpot with the ladies, or does having hotpot bring good luck?

But damn it, we haven't even started yet!!!

And upon suddenly hearing the word 'starship'.

Everyone was startled.

They hurriedly shouted for Bai Xiaoyuan to share the screen, their expressions suddenly becoming tense.

The previous dull atmosphere was swept away.

Xu Zi'an also became solemn, hurriedly looking at the shooting angle of the shared reconnaissance drone.

I saw that in the footage.

Under the super-strong light beam of the reconnaissance drone.

A massive object, entirely green, gradually appeared before everyone's eyes.

Green.

That was just the starship's paint job.

It wasn't anything else.

And with just one glance.

Xu Zi'an immediately recognized that this starship belonged to the Insectoid Race!

Because regardless of the paint job, or the part of the design currently visible, or the components currently visible, they all confirmed this to Xu Zi'an.

At the same time, seeing the state of this starship, Xu Zi'an couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

Because this starship was riddled with holes.

After experiencing countless baptisms by spatial rifts, it had long since lost its shape.

It was just a lump of scrap metal; it couldn't even be called a starship anymore.

So, it wasn't alive.

This made everyone immediately feel at ease.

In the anti-universe, if you are unlucky enough to encounter a super powerhouse of an enemy side...

That would truly be a case of calling to heaven with no response and calling to earth with no answer.

After Xu Zi'an let out a sigh of relief, he was overjoyed and hurriedly ordered: "Quick!"

"Send the coordinates immediately, we're going over now!"

"Also, look carefully, what level of starship is this!"

Bai Xiaoyuan immediately complied.

Soon.

Accompanied by the reconnaissance drone's scouting.

The appearance of this scrapped starship in front of them was completely revealed to everyone.

This was actually a Longitudinal Starship!

Even though it was riddled with holes, from the basic shape, it wasn't hard to see that the original volume was extremely huge.

It definitely exceeded sixty thousand meters in length!

So this was a Longitudinal Starship.

This discovery.

Made everyone, especially Xu Zi'an, even more excited!

Discovering a starship here definitely didn't just mean there was a possibility of obtaining food and other supplies on it—

Although the possibility of there being food was infinitely close to zero.

After all, if food really existed, then this dignified Longitudinal Starship captain wouldn't have died.

Of course, it's also possible that there was still food, but the starship had endured too many baptisms by spatial rifts and had no evolution points left. ===== CHAPTER 1046 =====
