Chapter 295: Departure to the Interstellar Space
The four leaders stood silently, their gaze fixed on their receding figures. As they vanished, the entire passageway, as if being slowly pulled by an invisible hand, began to shrink and dissipate. The light gradually dimmed, until the last ray of light vanished completely. As if time had flown backward, the entire room returned to the state it had been when they first entered. Silent and empty, only a lingering trace of spiritual energy in the air proved that the thrilling scene had not been an illusion.
"It has completely disappeared!" Leader Nangong widened his eyes slightly, his face full of astonishment. He slowly walked forward a few steps and came to the location of the passage. He squatted down and carefully observed the ground, trying to find any trace, but found nothing.
"Well, let's go. We should listen to the girl here and not let anyone in. But as long as someone shows up here, people outside will know." Leader Qin sighed slightly and turned to walk towards the door.
Although they were still concerned about the safety of Su Siyi and Nangong Jingming and worried about whether they could reach the interstellar space safely, at this moment, all they could do was pray silently and wait patiently, hoping that they could return safely and bring back hope and light to the interstellar space.
Su Siyi and Nangong Jingming walked hand in hand slowly through the long, dark passage. The passage was silent, with only the sound of their light footsteps and slightly rapid breathing echoing in the empty space.
The surrounding walls radiated a cold, flickering light, as if hiding countless pairs of prying eyes, a chilling feeling. They walked cautiously, each step feeling like treading on the strings of time, tense and filled with uncertainty.
They walked for who knows how long, but just when it felt like they would never reach the end, a faint glimmer of light finally appeared ahead. At first, the light was as faint as a firefly's, flickering in the endless darkness, but as they got closer, the light gradually grew stronger and larger, like a warm helping hand reaching out from the darkness, giving them hope and strength.
"Brother Nangong, look, it's the exit!" Su Siyi exclaimed excitedly, her voice trembling slightly with excitement, her eyes gleaming with joy and anticipation. She quickened her pace, eagerly running towards the light. Nangong Jingming followed closely behind her, their figures gradually moving further and further away in the passage, rushing towards the unknown interstellar world.
"Is this the interstellar space? Why is there no one around? And there are not even any plants here. It feels like a desert!" Su Siyi stood in this strange and desolate land, frowning, his eyes full of confusion and disbelief.
She slowly turned and looked around. All she could see were rolling dunes, yellow sand dancing in the air, howling in the wind like ferocious beasts, seeking to devour everything. The sand beneath her feet was scorching hot, and she could feel the scorching heat through the soles of her shoes. The distant horizon was distorted and blurred by the steaming heat. The whole world seemed shrouded in a golden veil, silent and desolate.
"Maybe the place we were teleported to is a desert!" Nangong Jingming also had a serious look on his face. He raised his hand to cover his forehead, squinted his eyes, and tried to find a clue in this vast sea of sand.
"System, what kind of interstellar world is this?" Su Siyi was helpless and could only silently call out to the system in her mind, hoping to get some useful information from it. In this unfamiliar place with no relatives and a harsh environment, the system undoubtedly became their only support and guidance.
"Master, this is a level three interstellar world, two levels higher than your world." The system's cold and mechanical voice sounded in Su Siyi's mind. At the same time, it quickly began to collect various data and information of this world, like an invisible big net, quietly spreading to every corner of this world, not missing any details.
"Oh, so our world is now a Level 1 world!" Su Siyi nodded slightly, pondering the gaps and connections between the two worlds. She knew this meant the challenges and opportunities they were about to face would be unprecedented, requiring them to explore and adapt everything from scratch.
"Yes, this world is very short of natural plants. Many planets are desertified cities like this, and nothing can be grown at all, so they all drink nutrient solution. Natural food is very popular in this world." The system reported the collected information in an orderly manner. Every word was like a precious treasure, lighting a faint lamp for Su Siyi and Nangong Jingming in the darkness.
"Oh, then how are we going to find a place where there are people now?" Su Siyi's voice revealed a hint of worry. She looked around anxiously. The vast desert was endless and there were no landmark buildings for reference. She was completely lost and didn't know where to start looking for traces of human beings.
"Master, I have copied the main brain information here. Wherever you want to go, I can set a map route for you." The system quickly provided a solution. The efficient service ability made Su Siyi breathe a sigh of relief, and a feeling of gratitude surged in his heart.
"Haha, you're really fast, thank you." Su Siyi smiled with satisfaction, and her tense nerves relaxed a little. With the help of the system, they finally stopped running around like headless chickens in this unfamiliar interstellar world.
"Brother Nangong, the system already knows the route here. There is only one city on this planet, and the rest of the place is half forest and half desert like this." Su Siyi couldn't wait to tell Nangong Jingming the information she had just learned, her eyes flashing with excitement and anticipation.
"Siyi, get them out!" Nangong Jingming checked his smart device and quickly noticed an update to the shared map. The map of their current planet was clearly displayed before him. He studied it carefully and realized they were still quite a distance from their only city, needing to cross a vast desert. Considering the long and arduous journey, he decided to bring everyone else out of the space to discuss strategies and face this uncertain journey together.
"Okay!" Su Siyi suddenly remembered that her family in the space must be extremely anxious, constantly concerned about the situation outside. She quickly closed her eyes, concentrated her mind, and in a flash, she entered the jade pendant space.
Inside the space, everyone had been waiting for a long time. When she came in, they gathered around, asking about the situation outside. Su Siyi briefly explained the situation and then led everyone out of the space.
As they emerged from the interstellar space, everyone was immediately captivated by the scene before them, and they looked around curiously. "This looks just like our world! Isn't the desert back there like this?" Su Wenxin crossed his arms, a hint of disappointment in his eyes. He had imagined the interstellar world to be a place full of fantasy and high technology, but he hadn't expected to see this familiar, monotonous desert landscape.
"It's indeed impossible to see here. We have to get out of the desert first. This planet is a very small one with only one city." Su Siyi said loudly to everyone, trying to make everyone clear about their current situation and mission.
"Ah, only one city on a planet?" Everyone was in disbelief when they heard this, their eyes widening and their mouths hanging open, as if they had just heard some fantasy. In their minds, a planet should be vast, populous, and full of cities. It was hard to imagine that a planet could have only one city.
"Yes, although the interstellar population is large, they have also discovered many planets, so the population is sparsely distributed." Su Siyi explained patiently. This knowledge was just told to her by the system. She knew that everyone was full of curiosity and doubts about this strange interstellar world. As a messenger of information, it was her responsibility to let everyone understand the basic situation of this world as soon as possible so that they could better adapt and survive.
"That's right, if our country could discover a habitable planet, we would definitely migrate there," Su Shiqian nodded thoughtfully. As the elder of the family, he was knowledgeable and sharp-minded, and he quickly saw from this phenomenon a trend in the future development of the world.
Under the pressure of limited resources and population growth, exploring the universe and searching for new habitable planets will become an inevitable choice for the development of all countries.
"Okay, let's talk about it on the way. But with so many of us, we'll need a few more off-road vehicles," Nangong Jingming said, frowning as he carefully observed the surrounding terrain. While this desert wasn't considered extremely desertified, the sand in some places was very hard, making it difficult for vehicles to drive. Fortunately, the off-road vehicles they had were capable enough to handle such road conditions.
"Okay, I'll get the car out!" Su Siyi responded. In a flash of light, six majestic off-road vehicles appeared out of thin air before everyone.
The cars' sleek lines and rugged styling, along with their massive, thick, and sturdy tires, seemed poised to conquer the desert at any moment. Each car could accommodate five people, leaving plenty of room, even with a few empty seats. The Su family, plus Nangong Jingming, could fill two cars, with the rest allocated to the remaining vehicles.
Just as everyone was getting ready to get on the bus and leave, Su Siyi suddenly seemed to remember something important and quickly raised her hand to signal everyone to wait a moment.
She turned aside, squatted down, and carefully took out the mysterious golden test bead from her backpack. The bead shone brightly in the sunlight, as if it contained endless mysteries and power.
