Chapter 324 – Attacking the Three-body System (3)

The shrinking s.p.a.ce brought the world ahead closer.

The expanding s.p.a.ce pushed the world behind further away.

Through the efficient use of dark matter, a race of insignificant intelligent life finally broke through the limit and sailed at a speed far exceeding the speed of photons.

Now, this race of intelligent life was out to explore the mystery hidden under the universe’s skirt…

When the s.p.a.cecraft Chen Yu and the others rode on exceeded the speed of light by 500 times, the sky’s originally static stars started shifting gradually.

Simultaneously, unimaginable changes had also occurred inside of the s.p.a.cecraft.

For a time, everyone looked at each other with panic in their eyes.

Everyone discovered that aside from themselves, the bodies of everyone else had deformed.

When the partic.i.p.ants looked at the people standing in front of them, they found that these people had all turned into giants.

When the partic.i.p.ants looked at the people standing behind them, they found that these people had all turned into midgets.

[What the? What’s going on?]

[The s.p.a.ceship became a triangle… The front is narrow, and the rear is wide.]

[This should be a result of the s.p.a.cecraft being squeezed in between two different s.p.a.ces, right? Will there be any danger to this?]

[This must be a spatial distortion! Host, slow down. Don’t let any accidents happen.]

[By the way, does the s.p.a.cecraft not have an acceleration process? How can it go from 100 times to 500 times the speed of light instantly?]

[This is not a normal type of acceleration, so how can there be a normal acceleration process? It’s basically the same as teleportation.]

[This is a little scary…]

[Where did the female a.s.sistant go?]

“Everyone, no need to panic.” Chen Yu, who stood in the middle of the hall, immediately explained, “This is still part of the spatial lens I talked about before. It’s just that the spatial expansion and contraction efficiencies have gotten too high, causing the external Kerry diffusion effect to spread inward. You really don’t need to worry. Both the s.p.a.cecraft’s interior and the independent s.p.a.ce outside are still stable. The only thing that has changed is the visible light.”

Hearing Chen Yu’s words, everyone inside the hall immediately breathed out a sigh of relief.

Afterward, everyone started looking at each other and couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

Meanwhile, as soon as the laughter began, there was no stopping it.

Looking from the front, the opened mouths of the people at the back looked ma.s.sive. Looking from the back, the opened mouths of the people at the front looked tiny.

The sight was a funny one, no matter how they looked at it…

After waiting for the event partic.i.p.ants to calm down, Chen Yu clapped his hands to attract everyone’s attention. “Traveling at 500 times the speed of light is still insufficient. This is only the s.p.a.cecraft’s medium speed. At this speed, it’ll take us at least three days to reach Alpha Centauri. Hence, we will further accelerate to 1,000 times!]

[Speed of Light x1,000]

[2.0 AU/s]

As soon as Chen Yu finished speaking, the s.p.a.cecraft instantly accelerated from 500 times the speed of light to 1,000 times! Simultaneously, both the stars’ movement and the effect of the spatial lens inside the s.p.a.cecraft became even more intense.

Now, the people at the front looked like mountains to the people in the back, while the people at the back had shrunk to a point where they could no longer be seen by people at the front.

Xing Biqi, who had been hiding at a corner, stretched out her hand tentatively. Her white, slender arm immediately turned into a sharp spike, making her look like the liquid robot that appeared in the movie Terminator.

[That looks fun.]

[Fun? Why do I feel afraid instead?]

[How magical.]

[If I was aboard the s.p.a.ceship, I would definitely show my manliness to the people behind! I’ll let them see what a real man is like!]

[Amazing thinking!]

[You can give it a try.]

[Give it up. Even if you do that, the beauties at the rear will find you to be small.]

[Where did the female a.s.sistant go?]

Due to the exaggerated spatial lens effect, everyone had a difficult time seeing each other. Hence, Chen Yu stopped caring about showing himself to the camera. After finding a random corner to sit down, he said, “I said before that to minimize the voyage’s duration, I will ignore the dark matter consumption and advance at full power. Now, although the s.p.a.cecraft is already moving at what it considers high speed, this is still not its limit.”

Shutting his eyes, Chen Yu observed the changes to the s.p.a.cecraft’s overall parameters for a moment before saying decisively, “Three thousand times!”

[Speed of Light x3,000]

[6.0 AU/s]

Instantly, the distortion caused by the spatial lens became even greater.

Now, if two people stood more than one meter apart, they would lose sight of each other.

The people at the front had basically shrunken down to the size of bacteria for the people at the rear. In contrast, the people at the rear had enlarged to a point where they covered the entire starry sky for the people at the front.

The world in everyone’s eyes had become bizarre and twisted.

In this situation, Chen Yu couldn’t help but admit that human sight was an extremely poor tool for experiencing FTL travel.

Can it still accelerate?

Shutting his eyes again, Chen Yu a.n.a.lyzed the s.p.a.cecraft’s overall situation and cautiously accelerated it by another 500 times.

[Speed of Light x3,500]

Noticing that the s.p.a.cecraft still operated steadily and no warnings were given, he further accelerated it by another 500 times.

[Speed of Light x4,000]

[Speed of Light x4,200]

[…4,500]

[…]

Finally, the s.p.a.cecraft reached 5,000 times the speed of light!

The s.p.a.cecraft’s spatial manipulation ability also seemed to have reached the critical point at this speed. Through careful experimentation, Chen Yu found that he could still accelerate the s.p.a.cecraft past this speed. However, when he did so, a series of warnings about the hull’s distortion would constantly ring out in his mind.

This should be the limit…

Opening his eyes, Chen Yu looked at the chaotic world around him and narrated, “The s.p.a.cecraft moving at 10 astronomical units per second. Meanwhile, the Oort Cloud is about 60,000 astronomical units away from the sun. In other words, at 5,000 times the speed of light, we will be able to thoroughly exit the solar system in roughly two hours.

“It’s going to take a little over seven hours to reach Alpha Centauri. This is going to be the longest livestream in the channel’s history.”

[Like.]

[The longer, the better.]

[How can a man complain about being long?]

[The host isn’t just long, but he’s fast as well!]

[The fastest man in history—Mr. Chen.]

[Fastest man, lololol.]

[??]

[Where did the female a.s.sistant go?]

Ten minutes later, Chen Yu verified that traveling at 5,000 times the speed of light wouldn’t generate any dangers. He then relaxed and said, “Everyone, how do you feel? Are there any problems?”

“No.”

“I’m good.”

“I feel a little dizzy…”

Hearing the responses, Chen Yu stood up and said, “The distortion caused by the spatial lens is too powerful. To avoid suffering any injuries, I recommend lying down and closing your eyes. I’ll create a virtual world for you using brain waves.

“As for the friends in front of the screen, I don’t have a solution for you. So, for the time being, you can go rest or do your own work and return after seven hours. The distance between galaxies is too significant, so today’s livestream won’t be as streamlined as before.”

…

“It’s you! It must be you!”

Earth, Jinzhou City, Chen abode’s living room:

Chen Yike was close to bursting into tears as she looked at the image displayed on her phone. “You took Xing Biqi with you, yet you didn’t think of taking your own sister! I’ve seen through you now!”

Placing down her phone, Chen Yike walked up to Chen Yu’s room angrily and knocked hard on the door.

Bang, bang…

Naturally, no response came from the room…

…

Like the cat litter used by orange cats, time disappeared quickly.

In the blink of an eye, more than seven hours had gone by already.

The s.p.a.cecraft carrying nearly 30 Earthlings finally crossed the distance of 4.3 light-years and the Alpha Centauri system.

“We’ve arrived.”

Looking at the notification displayed in his mind, Chen Yu stretched his waist and said, “Alpha Centauri has two relatively large stars named Alpha Centauri A and B and a small red dwarf. The gravitational environment here is very complicated, so to be on the safe side, we will now exit FTL mode.”

After saying so, Chen Yu immediately sealed off the dark matter storage and cut off the dark energy generator. The s.p.a.cecraft’s original speed of 5,000 times the speed of light also instantly came to a grounding halt.

Opening his eyes, Chen Yu found that the world around him had returned to its original state. He then stood up and approached the cabin’s transparent wall to look at the ultimate scenery outside. After a long silence, he said in a slightly trembling voice, “The visible light is normal now. Everyone, you can open your eyes.”

Hearing this, everyone immediately climbed up from the ground and opened their eyes. They then followed Chen Yu’s line of sight excitedly, wonderful expressions appearing on their faces immediately…
