I changed the timeline with the game.

Chapter 1047: Shadow Approaches
that's it,
Everyone has truly arrived at the [Kuiper Belt Platform Area].

But many people are not too excited because they all know how depressing the current atmosphere is.

But in the crowd,
The distant starlight that was blowing towards him made Su Wen raise his hand instinctively.

That is the starlight that is gradually broken at the edge of gravity.
now,

Compared to the sun that humans can see when looking up at the sky from Earth, it may now be just a slightly brighter spot in the constellation map.

After a long journey of astronomical units, the glow of Xihe had already been shattered.

But in the monitor carried by Su Wen in his space suit, they simply slowly turned into a drifting spectral waterfall.

The gravimeter showed that the sun's tidal force decayed to the order of 10^-14N, and even the movement trajectory of ice crystal fragments began to show weak probabilistic cloud characteristics.

Watching all this happening around me,
Su Wen just said slowly:

“The known boundaries of human civilization.”

The iceberg girl standing next to him also nodded slightly:

“If we exclude the borders beyond fantasy like the Lost Sea.

perhaps,

Even Gabriele Veneziano, the founder of string theory, might agree:

Humans must first reach the Kuiper Belt.
Then travel to the Oort Cloud.

Eventually, we will reach the real Milky Way and embark on an interstellar voyage that belongs to our civilization and to us.”

But I heard her sigh.

Su Wen smiled gently.

“It seems that the Origin Century has accelerated this process a little too fast.

Phyllis, is the camera ready? "

"OK."

Miss Watcher nodded seriously.
"Although there was some signal lag just now, I have just completed the parameter fine-tuning and it can be used normally."

Then,

Phyllis raised the deep space camera in her hand and switched it to quantum imaging mode:
instantly,

Through the data screen, the originally silent void in front of everyone's eyes seemed to be boiling with a silver-blue Fermi Sea.
Those methane ice cores that have been wandering at the edge of the solar system for billions of years are constantly emitting spiral solid helium glow into the vacuum under weak interactions.

And on the other side,
Compared to the professional surveying operation that Phyllis is conducting.

The handsome scholar finally saw the iron miracle they were heading to next, which was suspended at the edge of the solar system, the Kuiper Belt:

There are countless circular drilling platforms connected by pipelines, each with a diameter of about 30 kilometers.

The solid ice they are drilling into also contains countless rare metals from the edge of the solar system, some protozoa of life, and even a few precious relics from distant borders.

Drilling platform after drilling platform is being wrapped in seven layers of composite protective shields, leaving only lavender energy ripples flowing on the transparent dome.

Time passed slowly like this,
Just as they were about to enter the entrance, a cold mechanical voice suddenly sounded:
[Hello to all researchers who are about to complete border transfer work, please pay attention to the gravity gradient under your feet in time]

[You are about to cross the gravitational field boundary]

【Gate No. 1 has been closed】

【Gate No. 2 has been closed】

[Air exchange system has been activated]

Perhaps it is because it is so many times farther away from the sun that the gravity here feels completely different from that on Earth.

Therefore, some drilling platforms have also set up simulated ecosystems that transform through psychic energy.

And through the dome,

He even saw the unusual blood-red starlight of Neptune, which intertwined with the pale afterglow of the sun in the vacuum to form a strange aurora.
In fact, their faint light has already coated the thousands of mining ships in the anchorage area with a strange rainbow color.

Since Su Wen and the other two came as Lorenz Riel research scholars, they were not assigned any mandatory tasks.

So the leader simply gave him a research institute near the border gate with a relatively high security factor:

"You can only stay here for 72 hours at most.

Once the timeout period has passed,
Even if your fifth-level dean comes here to intervene, we can only forcibly repatriate you according to the rules.

Let me confirm again.
You should have known how dangerous this place is before you came here."

"I see."

Su Wen nodded slowly, knowing that this group of people were all thinking about him, and he didn't want to continue communicating anything.

This period of time is enough to complete the research and help the little sirens fulfill their long-cherished wish.

of course,

At least he had never enjoyed this kind of treatment in some of the ruins.

Although the human civilization of the Fifth Era is still lagging behind in the technology tree, it still has a little more human touch.

The three of them carried their personal belongings and walked into the independent research room.
even,

This independent research room actually comes with a rest cabin.

Unfortunately,
There is only one bed in the rest cabin.

But this is not a problem for the chief player who carries [storage space] with him and can build a beach villa on the spot at any time.

After closing the door, Phyllis finally stretched lazily, feeling very relaxed.

She simply grabbed the back of the chair and sat backwards in the research chair, and Miss Watcher's action was very similar to what Su Wen would do.

of course,

She is not lazy, but too nervous, so relax:
"Did you feel it? The atmosphere just now was really too depressing."

Miss Watcher, who was not that strong-willed to begin with, really didn't like this feeling.

Therefore,
Even the last Kuroshio crisis in the Philippines.

She just managed to complete the coordination of the entire process.

Looking at her movements, Jiang Menghan suddenly remembered the movements that Su Wen often made in high school.
She smiled softly with her hands covering her mouth, which was rare and gentle:
"Are you that scared?"

“It really is.

Their faces are indeed a little too serious.”

Because Phyllis knew Su Wen's secret, she was almost considered a core member of the Dawn System.

The three of them usually chat a lot.

So she didn't try to hide her inner thoughts at all. Instead, she hugged Jiang Menghan and acted coquettishly:
"We are finally here safely. Let's finish the work and then go back."

But when I heard her say that,
Su Wen, who was leaning against the porthole on the edge of the huge drilling platform, only made a gentle promise:
"Don't worry,

Maybe our work isn’t done yet, but the matter has already been settled.”

As soon as he finished speaking,

There was a thunderous vibration coming from deep in the port of the drilling platform closest to them.

Such a huge tremor directly shifted the attention of countless people to the distance outside the window:
In that position,
Three Bruce-class mining ships are unloading.

But some backlit shadows from distant stars seemed to have 'slowly swallowed' the mining ship.

"They did arrive a little too quickly."
