Chapter 55 Arrival at the Magnetic Reconnection Belt
have to say.

From the time he traveled through time to now, Gu Wei still has a deep impression of several of his colleagues on the ship.

Especially Milo.

This captain behaved quite honestly and reliably when they first met. If it weren't for the arrival of Birna's pursuers, Gu Wei would have been fooled by him.

In some later events, Milo gradually revealed a character different from his appearance - he was certainly not treacherous or sinister, but he was a bit mercenary or even a gangster.

If I have to give an example, he is probably a little bit similar to Liu Bang, the first emperor of Han Dynasty.

So Gu Wei once thought that he was on a pirate ship.

But after spending more time together, Gu Wei has a new understanding of Milo.

Whether it was the guarantee of the registered place in front of the WoWotou alien, or the practice of letting him try to launch Nono with his own hands today, it showed that Milo actually had a very delicate heart under his mercenary appearance.

At least he did think about it to help him fit in on the ship.

After all these experiences, although it may not be considered unconditional trust, Gu Wei has more or less developed a sense of belonging.

"Okay, Gu Wei," after a moment, Mee Mee turned her head and looked at the direction of the main control room, and said, "The inertia phase has ended, and the spacecraft parameters have returned to normal. It's almost time for us to meet up with the other teams."

Gu Wei nodded, pulled his mind back to reality, and waved to Nuonuo: "Nunuo, let's go back."

Nono jumped to his side, still looking a little unsatisfied: "The blast bomb is so boring, can Nono install it in the cluster annihilation cannon on Uncle Kai's mecha and fire it out next time?"

Gu Wei: “.”

Although I don't know what kind of weapon the cluster annihilation cannon is, just looking at the word "annihilation" I know it's definitely not as simple as playing house. This little guy is as unique as ever.
But then again.

I don’t know if Nuonuo regarded the launch process as some kind of friendship test ceremony, but after returning to the spacecraft, her attitude towards Gu Wei seemed to be more friendly - before, if Gu Wei waved to her, this girl would not cooperate so well.

Then they flew back to the main control room. Milo was already standing next to the control console. He nodded when he saw them come back.

Gu Wei also nodded to him.

it is more than words.

Then Gu Wei took a few steps forward and came to Milo's side. He looked at the keys on the console and said, "Captain, how far is the place we are going to next from here?"

"It's quite close, and there aren't many obstacles on the road," Milo pointed to a small dot on the three-dimensional projection. "It will take two or three days to fly along the seventh chordal plane and you'll be there. Converted to the distance you understand, it's probably a little over 10 billion kilometers."

"Hundreds of billions of kilometers." Gu Wei repeated the number: "That's not far."

During this period of time, Gu Wei has learned some knowledge about space navigation.

For example, the so-called seventh chord plane is a type of space scale divided by the Star Sea Civilization for the universe. The entire space is divided into eighteen chord planes in total, which is somewhat similar to a clock in nature.

When describing a direction, the chord plane is usually determined first, and then coordinate planning is performed within the chord plane.

This approach may seem redundant, but you have to remember that in some extreme scenarios the universe may be discontinuous or non-flat.

If a chordal surface parameter is not introduced, even the simplest coordinate transformation formula in complex Euclidean space will have three more expressions, not to mention other more advanced data.

According to Kay, this spatial scale is also used in mecha air combat, and even when getting started, you have to solve a lot of complex equations by hand.
His eyes returned to reality.

Perhaps it was because of his identity as the captain, after standing on the control console, Milo also took on some of the momentum of a helmsman, and waved his hand domineeringly:
"Mee-mee, start the phase transfer engine at full speed, target the planet Berunas, reunite with the rest of the fleet as soon as possible, and try to capture the alien life!"

A reply from the main thread of MeeMee soon came from the ceiling: "Received."

See this situation.

Gu Wei, who was standing next to Milo, couldn't help but straighten his body a little, and felt an excitement in his heart to conquer the vast sea of stars.

But before Gu Wei could be so excited for five seconds, Milo on the console yelled, "Oh my god. Mee-mee, don't really use the phase transfer engine to full blast, it will burn our coffins! Can't you just take it easy?"

Meimei's voice quickly became a little confused and aggrieved: "But Captain, you clearly said to start at full speed."

"This is a slogan, understand? Don't you think it sounds very impressive?" Milo rolled his eyes and looked at the energy reserve bar representing the phase transfer engine with heartache:

"As for the actual operation, we just need to maintain a speed of about 10% of the speed of light to ensure that we are not the last to arrive. Slow down quickly. Oh, and remember to fake some signs of burning caused by super-high-speed sailing outside the ship. I will see if I can find someone to reimburse some of the energy costs."

Gu Wei: “.”

Well, I still think highly of my captain's integrity.
Then quickly.

The Flutter Flutter broke away from its inertial navigation and began to move rapidly towards a certain direction.

Although the spacecraft's engine was not running at full capacity of 27% of the speed of light, the average speed of around 14% still made the scene outside the starry sky appear quite distorted.

That's right, distorted, not blurred.

Because as the spacecraft approaches the speed of light, the light from the front will be blue-shifted (the frequency will increase), while the light from the back will be red-shifted (the frequency will decrease).

Some of this light will be blue-shifted into the ultraviolet or even X-ray regions, beyond the range of visible light, or red-shifted into the infrared or even radio bands, also beyond the range of visible light.

So the field of view in the spacecraft will gradually shrink after the engines are started, until most of the light is concentrated in a small area directly in front of it.

Eventually, you'll see that all the light is compressed into a small point or thin line, forming an intense light source.

In the following period of time, the entire Fuleng Fuleng was in a relatively stable repair state.

Jin's daily task is either to look up information on weaving point necklaces or to repair Kai's Streamer Mecha in the hangar. Nuonuo and Li Zi are studying the squirrel fish cooking method provided by Gu Wei.

As for Gu Wei himself, he continued to follow Kai to familiarize himself with the operation of the mecha, and successfully made the mecha fly 50 meters into the air.
that's it.

Three and a half days passed in a flash.

At noon on the fourth day, the Flutter Flutter returned to normal gear from near-light-speed travel, and the scene outside the starry sky gradually returned to normal from being distorted.

then
In the field of vision of Gu Wei, who was lying on the star curtain, a green ribbon slowly floated in the starry sky.
