black sky

What if such a thing happened to me?

Chus twirled the cup, leaned on Sae Young's shoulder, and looked at the galaxy outside the porthole, a little dazed—if the same thing happened to him, how far could he do it?Under the premise that he may disappear forever, will he move forward without any scruples...

But this kind of question is actually meaningless, after all, he has not really experienced that choice, so no matter what he thinks at this moment, it is just a hypothesis.

Chu Si withdrew his gaze, drank the last bit of water in the glass, stretched his hand back and scratched Say Yang's chin without looking back: "Go to the cockpit to see?"

Say Yang gave a "hmm" and then asked with a smile, "Is my puppet still qualified as a pillow, sir?"

"Barely, the muscles are too hard and not comfortable enough." Chu Si stood up while answering.

"But you obviously liked it 10 minutes ago."

Chu Si: "..."

At certain times, the extraordinarily serious Chief Chu looked at him blankly for a few seconds, stuffed the empty cup into his arms, and lowered his head slightly into the front cockpit.

By the time Say Yang flushed two cups and threw them into the sterilizer, and returned to the cockpit, Chief Chu had already occupied the only driver's seat, tapping the buttons to scroll through data and notifications.

Say Yang simply sat on the armrest on the left side of the driver's seat, "Honey, I find that you always like to avoid this kind of discussion."

Chus glanced at him, "I just distinguish between public and private, and switch to business mode when the private affairs are over, what's the problem?"

As he spoke, he suddenly reached out and tapped the bottom of the screen, and said, "Did you count the time when you planned the route before? Here it shows that it has sailed for 113 minutes. If I am not mistaken, aircrafts like the Black Swan have never It usually takes 70-90 minutes for the complete planetary land to leave, enter orbit, and then go half a circle around the planet. Isn’t the 113 minutes a bit long now?”

More than a little, it took half an hour.

Chus pointed to the historical information on the screen again, "And I flipped through it just now, and I changed tracks a total of 8 times. The problem is that there are two repetitions in the middle."

Sae Yang leaned forward, tapped on the case with one hand and flipped through the information on the screen—as expected, he actually went back in the middle.

It's like changing from track A to track B, and then to track C. After a while, I switched back to track A again. The walking route is like a mental retardation.

Chu Si gave a "tsk", knocked on the console, and said delicately: "The black swan's intelligent system is an undercover agent embedded by the people from the City of Silver, right?"

Sae Young smiled.

As if to confirm what Chu Si said, the autopilot system in the cockpit sounded a reminder again, and the mechanical electronic voice said without any ups and downs: "Re-plan the route."

"The route is planned."

"Prepare to jump."

Chus: "..."

He said meanly with no expression on his face: "This silly swan probably only knows such a skill as leap."

The complete sentence was interrupted into two parts by the instantaneous vibration during the transition.When his voice fell, the electronic voice of the autopilot had already said: "The transition is complete."

Originally a fairly simple route, it was forced by this aircraft to walk out of nine bends and eighteen bends.

Changing tracks 8 times and jumping twice, no matter how you look at it, it seems that the effect will only be achieved if you get lost.

"I see……"

The two opened their mouths almost at the same time. Chu Si and Say Yang looked at each other, and saw that the other party called out the star map data, not the one that was updated in real time, but picked a few from the continuously changing star map Time nodes, cut out a few pictures and listed them together for comparison.

On the star map with a voyage time of 22 minutes, the Aquila gamma star completely appeared in the position where it should appear, and the black swan was also in the expected orbit.

On the star map with a voyage time of 39 minutes, the dots that originally represented the star Eagle γ suddenly disappeared, but a few scattered small dots appeared in the blank places on the star map, and the black swan changed its orbit for the first time.

On the star map with a sailing time of 41 minutes, the positions of those small dots changed, so the black swan changed its orbit again.

……

There are a total of 11 star maps. After reading them, Chu Si muttered, "Sure enough."

The self-regulation of time is not limited to the planet Skyhawk γ, but includes the entire star region affected by the Silver City, and even the entire star sea.Therefore, the black swan also traveled through several different time and space zones during its voyage, just like Chuse and Thay Young who drove through various eras before.

In the space-time zone during the 22-minute voyage, the Aquila gamma star is still intact, so the black swan can still go to the destination according to the established orbit.

And at 39 minutes, Black Swan has arrived in another time and space zone. In that time and space, the star Eagle γ has been disintegrated, and the fragments where Fort Barney is located have been scattered in the sea of ​​stars, so for Black Swan, the destination There was a sudden displacement and it had to re-plan its route.

……

After a few trips, the historical navigation route of the autopilot system turned into a fool.

This situation is a bit dumbfounding.

Sah Young used the system to build a model based on historical voyage data and star map data, tapped his fingers quickly and looked at the numerical results and said to Chu Si: "Report, one good news and one bad news, which one to listen to first?" one?"

"Whatever you want, let's talk in order." Chu Si said calmly.

To be honest, since he opened his eyes from the frozen capsule, he was almost numb to hearing the bad news, and there was really nothing he couldn't bear.

Sae Yang nodded and said: "The good news is that although our silly swan has been scurrying around, the overall trend is still getting closer and closer to Fort Barney, so it is inevitable to finally reach the destination. The bad news is... …do not know if the remaining fuel in the fuel tank will last until then.”

Chus: "..."

Brain started to hurt again.

He squeezed the space between his brows, turned his head and said to Sae Yang solemnly: "Should I add a compliment to you now?"

Sae Young: "Huh?"

"Turned one black swan into a hundred without authorization." Chus stood up with a magnanimous face, gestured "please" to the driver's seat, and said, "You're welcome, I'll give you a chance to show off. Excellent synchronous driving technology, connecting other swans one by one, and sailing in a low-consumption state, can save a little bit, so we have more than 90 fuel supply cabins."

Sae Yang raised his eyebrows, moved his knuckles and sat in the driver's seat, "Alright sir, you're really smart."

A mighty long line of one hundred black swans suddenly changed their formation in the sea of ​​stars, spreading out in dizzying ways, while passing through, the connecting port buzzed out from the side and rear of the fuselage.

In the blink of an eye, the black swan, which seemed to be disorderly at first, quickly joined together amidst the sound of "clicking" ports.

One for two, two for four...

The seemingly chaotic queues were quickly put together in the constant merging, and the originally independent one hundred black swans were all connected in the blink of an eye, forming a complete unity.Then, except for the leading one, all the other black swan signal lights suddenly went dark, and they all entered the low-power mode.

"More than 90 fuel supply tanks—" Say Yang quickly scanned the values ​​of each fuel tank, and said, "It's enough for this silly swan to lose his way for half a year."

Chus: "..."

Fortunately, Sah Young is not a crow's mouth.

They were prepared for a protracted battle, and the black swan actually took them to their destination, Fort Barney, in just over two hours. During this period, they changed orbits 17 times and jumped 9 times in a row.

They originally planned to go directly through the space-time curve, but when they were about to reach the entrance, the black swan who had been played with for three hours finally lost his temper, and the electronic sound of the intelligent system suddenly sounded: "The transition system has entered a temporary sleep, The protection system enters a temporary hibernation, and will automatically restart after two hours."

"..."

What a fucking time!

The moment of entering the entrance of the time-space curved path, the transition system and the protective barrier must be activated simultaneously. Even if it is a black swan, it is impossible to enter directly by the face in a daze, otherwise it will still be the result of the crash of the plane.

Seeing that the space-time curve was close in front of him, Say Yang yanked the joystick quickly with his hand, and at the same time lowered the speed to the minimum with the other hand. The huge black swan phalanx rubbed against the entrance edge of the space-time curve, and suddenly slanted Turning his body sideways and raising his head, he drew an astonishing arc around the curve of time and space.

After two big circles in a row, it really fell to the vulgarity in the circle, and slowly landed towards the ground in the Fort Barney area.

There is no danger!

Say Yang threw away the joystick, leaned against the back of the driver's seat, and scoffed, "This thing has a pretty temper."

Chus let go of the hand holding the crossbar above his head, then bent down to look at the scene outside through the porthole, pondered for a moment and said, "It's still two hours, why not go to Fort Barney and wait, and take care of the situation by the way." Let’s check the stolen goods.”

With the convenience of Fort Barney's equipment, they can just see if they can recover the historical information in the vice president's communicator, and maybe they can also find out what the metal disc that Mond Hollis left him is.
