dark moon

Chapter 569: End point, set sail

All the stars in the sky were extinguished, and the void fell into darkness.

In fact, it was not starlight, but the nebula that once passed by. The splendid light of the nebula once shone on this planet, making it as bright as daylight every moment, but at this time, the position of the nebula was dimmed. The planet is also shrouded in darkness.

Because the nebula has been swallowed by the rift space and turned into a component of the Great Rift, the gorgeous and colorful space is only left with a piece of coldness and nothingness. No one can imagine how hot and gorgeous it used to be.

The Great Rift is approaching, but the Brown Stars remain dormant.

Nearly two thousand immigrant spacecraft are spread out on the planet, occupying almost half of the planet's surface. Each spacecraft lies on the surface like a huge steel monster, motionless, waiting quietly.The lights on the spacecraft were all turned off, and no light could be seen for hundreds or thousands of kilometers. Only the bridge command room was brightly lit. In every spacecraft, the captain was dressed in neat military uniforms, standing upright. In front of the podium.

No one spoke, and there was no communication with each other through radio waves. The only thing that changed was the beating numbers on the timer. All the captains looked solemn and stared intently at the picture on the monitor, where the darkness representing the Great Rift was moving. Get closer.

Now there is no time for the Brown Star people to regret it. The Great Rift is right in front of them. Even if it takes off now, no spacecraft can escape the pursuit of the Great Rift. The Brown Star civilization has no room to look back. This planet, This is the place chosen by the remaining captains on behalf of all brown star creatures. Thousands of years of exile will soon stop here. Tens of thousands of years of civilization inheritance will also end on this planet. Here, there will be brown The last stop of the star civilization in the home world, the last footprint left behind.

No one regretted, no one was sad. In the three days before the berth, some people had cried, but at this moment, all the captains seemed to be completely relieved, waiting for the last moment in an unusually calm manner.

"How long?" Only people on the Jackdaw, which was serving as the flagship at this time, were still busy. Shuer and Moria were staring at the big crack on the screen, while Delia, who was wearing a holy robe, The two of them were busy, constantly summarizing various data.After observing for a long time, Shuer suddenly called Delia, "Exact time."

"Three hours and seven minutes." The girl gave the answer without raising her head. "This is the time it takes to reach the closest point of the planet. In theory, it should take some time to completely devour it, but I looked at the previous records and it seems that the process is instantaneous. Done, no time wasted.”

"There is indeed none, and it is not something that mortals can identify if there is." Shuer nodded, "The detection results, what is the situation of the void evil spirits in the outside world?"

"It's very strange." Delia frowned. "A large number of void evil spirits have crossed our planet and rushed deeper into the universe. Although there is an endless stream of follow-up, it is just like the previous one, seeming to destroy us. Act as if it doesn’t exist.”

"No, this is normal." Shuuer explained, "This time, because a giant planet is used as a spaceship and it travels through the rift space for a long time, Lady Luna is worried that while maintaining the new brown star, her strength will not be able to support the whole journey, so The forest goddess Anika also joined the action. Now it is she who protects the planet instead of Luna. Luna is mainly responsible for driving the planet. While protecting the planet, Anika uses the breath of the forest to protect the planet. It covers the aura of the souls of all creatures on the planet, so it’s not surprising that the void evil spirits can’t find us.” “That means there must be no problem?” Delia muttered as if to comfort herself, “The two gods have joined forces, We can definitely ensure that the plan goes smoothly.”

"Wrong, it's three people." The corners of Shuer's mouth turned up, revealing a smile that seemed to have everything under control. This smile was what Delia liked to see the most. Every time she saw her uncle smiling like this, the girl felt extremely at ease. "A god offered to help. If I refused, the god would be embarrassed. Besides, how can I not make good use of the free help I have sent to my door, don't you think?"

"Ha, ha, ha." Delia rolled her eyes, "Uncle, I still remember the way you were kicked back by the goddess. Are you sure you don't take back what you just said?"

"Ahem, that was an accident, just an accident." Xiuer coughed a few times and explained in a serious manner, "Although the great god who is fraternal, kind and willing to help others is still relatively weak, he is not strong enough to support such a large-scale operation. , but fortunately there are several gods working together to support her, so there is no problem in doing some auxiliary work. Therefore, with the escort of these three gods, at least you don’t have to be nervous at this stage. What you should really worry about is Forget it, let’s talk about the specific issues after you arrive.”

"Uncle, is it troublesome?"

"Well...it's just a little different from my original design, so I said that the most annoying thing is the unexpected change." Shuer curled his lips and shook his head hard, trying to get the complicated problem out of his mind. Throw it out, "But those are problems later. Everything must be done step by step. What we need now is to deal with everything in front of us first, for example, advance into the Great Rift."

"Ha, I understand, uncle." Delia was stunned for a moment, nodded thoughtfully, her original smile returned to her face, and she skillfully turned on the communication device on the console, sending the sound to every spacecraft around the world. "Attention all captains, the estimated contact time is two hours and forty minutes. The final preparations will begin, and all items carried will be thoroughly checked to ensure that nothing is missing. If there are any missing items, report them to the flagship immediately. No private actions are allowed. Remember , this is the first and only opportunity, we have been together for thousands of years, and I don’t want to see anyone leave the team at the last minute.”

No one wants to see this kind of thing, so even though they have done it several times, the captains still carefully check the status of the spacecraft. During the long-term exile life, everyone has long understood that a slight negligence may bring disaster. There will be irreversible consequences. Only by not letting go of any detail can we ensure the smooth progress of the operation.

As time passed, the green lights indicating the completion of preparations lit up one after another. Even though the edge of the Great Rift was close at hand, the planet still maintained the calmest atmosphere. The captains no longer even looked at the rift space. After finishing the final preparations, every captain raised his head in unison and cast his nostalgic gaze into the void of his hometown. His gaze was so greedy that he seemed to want to forever carve the scene of his hometown into the deepest part of his memory.

"The time has come." Delia's voice was obviously trembling, but there was no hesitation at all. "People, we set sail."

The next moment, darkness fell, covering everything.
