My empire of stars

13,000 kilometers from Jupiter, inside the Rescuer

Li Jialu closed the tablet and stared blankly at Jupiter in the distance. In ten minutes, the spacecraft will reach the ring surrounding Jupiter.

Jupiter is beautiful in the sunlight, with countless ice shards, meteorites, and dust forming this beautiful yellow halo.

"We will reach the target orbit in five minutes." The system's synthesized voice came from the computer.

Li Jialu quickly pressed a few buttons, and the image on the halo was captured by a billion-pixel lens. As Li Jialu continued to press it, it slowly enlarged.

Nothing at all! The place where the wreckage of the alien spaceship should have been was empty! Li Jialu's pupils shrank instantly.

Wait, what is that? Li Jialu's sharp eyes quickly discovered anomalies on the screen. She quickly enlarged the image and saw a black wreckage with the logo of half of the Pan-Earth Alliance on the wreckage.

If she remembered correctly, the debris in this shape must have come from the kind of aerospace fighter carried on her own spacecraft! The Alliance's spaceship must have encountered some kind of attack here!

Hey, she soon discovered that there was a strangely shaped cross-shaped wreckage under the wreckage. She hurriedly woke up Allen, Danji, and Ivanov who were sleeping.

Soon Danji piloted an aerial fighter plane to salvage the cross-shaped wreckage, which was as tall as a person, back to the Rescuer.

Allen was responsible for staying behind, while Li Jialu and Ivanov flew towards the wreckage. The lights on the spacesuits reflected silvery white light on the wreckage.

"This wreckage doesn't look like a man-made object. You see, the material is similar to jade and metal." Li Jialu said to Ivanov.

"Let me see what material it is made of." Ivanov pointed the laser cutter in his hand at the shell of the wreckage and pressed the switch. After a few seconds, the area irradiated by the cutting laser showed no change at all and was still as smooth as jade.

Unbelieving, Ivanov adjusted the cutting laser to maximum power and aimed it at the shell of the wreckage again. After dozens of seconds passed, the laser cutting machine emitted a red flash of powerlessness.

When they took the cutting machine away, they found that there was still no damage to the original shell. The two were a little dumbfounded. This temperature did not cut it open. What kind of power could destroy it like this? This must be on earth. Conventional weapons cannot reach it.

The two of them and Danji, who had parked the fighter jet and hurried over, worked together to push it into the cargo hold of the spacecraft. With the bright light in the cabin, the three of them discovered that there were several unknown interfaces and a red switch on the wreckage. .

The red switch is covered by a glass-like cover with unknown symbols printed on it.

"I guess it must say no touching." Li Jialu said to the two of them with a smile.

"I think so, but there is only one red switch in the whole white wreckage, and people always want to press it for no reason!" Ivanov scratched his head and was confused.

According to a small experiment, a person is placed in a room. There is a small button in the room that says "Never press it." Even if the person inside knows that pressing it may destroy the world, but before being sure of the answer, he is strongly tempted. Curiosity will surely drive him to push the button.

Now the three of them are faced with such a situation, and the only thing they can do with the entire wreckage is a small button.

"Why don't we press the button and give it a try? This thing doesn't look like a weapon. What's more, it fell from the spacecraft and suffered such serious damage. There should be no problem." Danji, who is afraid of the world being in chaos suggested.

"Okay." After Li Jialu said that, she stretched out her hand.

"Don't really press it!" the two people exclaimed after seeing Li Jialu's movements.

But Danji and Ivanov obviously underestimated Li Jialu's persistence. In the blink of an eye, Li Jialu had lifted the "glass cover" on the button.

"No!!!!" The two wanted to stop it, but it was too late. Li Jialu had already pressed the button hard.

quiet! Unexpectedly quiet! Nothing happened! The three of them breathed a sigh of relief.

"I was just joking, but you really pressed it." Danji's face was full of fear.

"Didn't nothing happen? Let's save everyone the trouble." Li Jialu shrugged like a normal person, turned around and floated out of the warehouse. Danji and Ivanov looked at each other and drifted away.

Inside the wreckage that no one could see, a small remaining energy crystal slowly disappeared. A red light flashed on the shell of the wreckage, but the three people who had left the warehouse did not notice it.

The few people who had just sat down found that the outer shell of their spaceship began to glow with an inexplicable blue light!

"What's going on!!" Li Jialu and others panicked.

"The energy detector shows a large amount of energy escaping outside our spacecraft!" Allen shouted anxiously.

Seconds later, the Rescuer disappeared from Jupiter's orbit in a blue flash.

"Thank you Li Jialu, we will finally never see the earth again." Ivanov muttered to himself desperately looking at the endless purple world outside the hanging window.

"I didn't know that this thing turned out to be some kind of super-light engine, but after my inference, we are probably no longer in the original time and space." Li Jialu was also a little annoyed.

"We know without you having to tell us that the original time and space was not this boundless purple!!!" Ivanov's tone was a bit serious.

Li Jialu felt very guilty and could only comfort everyone: "Entering this kind of hyperspace should consume energy. It is estimated that we will be able to leave here in a day or two at most, maybe an hour or two...Probably. Maybe." In the end, she said I don’t believe it anymore.

"Hopefully!" Others closed their eyes helplessly.

Ten days later, inside the Rescuer

"It's been ten days and we haven't left this damn space. I feel sick when I see purple now! If I can return to Earth in the future, I will definitely throw away all the purple objects in my house!" Danji yelled while lying on his bed.

Fortunately, they are all carefully selected astronauts, and their mentality is still good even in this desperate situation. Of course, this is because the materials in the ship can last for a long time, and everyone will not go crazy until they reach a real desperate situation. .

Li Jialu stroked the tablet in her hand. She didn't dare to answer the call now because her impulse caused everyone to enter this unknown space and couldn't get out. In the end, she even imagined that she could get out in a few days, but reality hit her hard. Face!

Twenty days after the spacecraft entered unknown space

Li Jialu and four other people were sitting together, each holding a tablet in their hands and playing cards. Twenty days of despair and boredom had passed, and they still couldn't escape from this boundless purple world. Everyone had lost their way out. The idea, what everyone wants now is to spend the last period of their lives happily.

Although they were prepared to die before setting off, no one expected that they would die in an unknown space. This can be regarded as the first time in human history. Maybe future generations can enter this space and find their remains. Maybe.
