Superbase Evolution

Chapter 250 Dark Night
Lin Shen brought the medicine soup into the house and drank a bowl himself first. When he felt nothing unusual, he gave a bowl each to Lin Miao and Ximen Jianke.

Lin Miao and Ximen Jianke both still had high fevers and were a little confused. Lin Shen could only hold their teeth together and force the medicine into their mouths.

This medicinal soup is indeed useful. After drinking it, after a while, the fever was obviously not as severe.

Taking out the information given by Hai Daxiu, Lin Shen carefully studied the information of the giant ring star.

The time calculation method of the universe is very special. Most habitable planets have their own timekeeping method. However, no matter which planet's timekeeping method it is, a day is 24 hours. It’s just that how long 24 hours is on each planet is different.

Therefore, there is also a universal timekeeping method in the universe. No matter what time it is on your planet, the time in the universe will not change.

The cosmic time is calculated based on the time of the transmission device. The countdown on the watch is one hour, which is a standard cosmic hour. The timing of all transmission devices is unified without exception.

What is strange is that this cosmic time is surprisingly close to the time on our home planet. Even the calculation of the entire cosmic time is surprisingly close to the timekeeping method on our home planet.

One cosmic year is roughly equal to one human mother planet year, with a difference of a few days, usually ten days or half a month at most.

It has only been seventeen cosmic years since the giant ring star was discovered, and it is a planet with not very high level of development.

Currently, there is only one teleportation device that can teleport to the giant ring star, and it is in the hands of the Celestials.

The main body of the teleportation device has not been found on the giant ring star yet. Anyone who is teleported here will have a black watch on their wrist, which also shows a three-day countdown.

However, after the three-day countdown is over, you will not be teleported out directly. You can choose to stay or teleport back. As long as you don't choose to go back, you can stay on the giant ring star forever.

"This is almost exactly the same as the mode of teleporting from Hulu Mountain to King Kai's Planet. Could it be that Hulu Mountain itself is a teleportation device?" Lin Shen speculated in his heart.

Continuing to look at the information about the giant ring star, it is probably the same as what Lao Yu said. The giant ring star is extremely large, with many genetically modified creatures on it. The interior of the planet is mainly populated by genetically modified creatures, and there are ascended creatures in some areas.

There are a large number of ascended creatures above the star belt, and they often come down from above to hunt.

Because it is a planet with a relatively short development time, there is not much information about it. The following article focuses on some of the taboos of giant ring planets.

Most of them are about what things cannot be touched and what areas cannot be visited. There is also a particularly eye-catching rule, which is that after dark, you must stay in a closed space and not go out casually, otherwise your life will be in danger.

The specific reason is not mentioned in the information. It only says that the location of the giant ring star is at the edge of the galaxy, and the degree of influence by stars is very low. It may even leave the galaxy and become a wandering planet at any time.

The main source of light for giant ring stars is the star belt. What makes the star belt glow is not the suspended islands, but the star belt itself.

The light of the star belt will usher in a dark period every eighty cosmic hours, which will last for nearly forty hours. This period of time is the night of the giant ring star.

Lin Shen couldn't understand what it meant that the star belt itself was emitting light. Wasn't the star belt formed by those suspended islands? The suspended islands didn't emit light, but the star belt itself emitted light. It sounded contradictory.

Unfortunately, there was no answer in the information. Lin Shen asked Lao Yu again, but Lao Yu couldn't explain it clearly either.

He gave Lin Shen a timetable with the dark time period of the giant ring star, and reminded him again that when night falls, he must go back into the house and close the door.

If you don't get back in time, find a cave outside, seal the entrance with something, and wait for the night to pass.

Of course, for this information and schedule, Lin Shen paid another two Tianbi in debt.

The stone houses were not free, of course. Each stone house required a day's rent. After taking the timetable and roughly calculating, there were less than three hours left until the next dark night. Naturally, Lin Shen was unwilling to risk going out, and planned to make plans after this dark night.

After Lin Miao and Ximen Jianke drank the medicine, they felt better. Lin Shen told them in detail what he had learned, in case they were unaware of the situation and ran out in the dark.

Originally, the three people each had their own stone house. Lin Shen asked Lao Yu to give up one of the stone houses, so he and Lin Miao could live in one.

Lao Yu agreed to return the stone room, but today's rent cannot be reduced.

Lin Shen didn't originally want to save money. The Giant Ring Star was too strange, and he was afraid that something might happen, so he felt more at ease with Lin Miao.

Lin Shen asked Lao Yu to prepare a few more bowls of medicinal soup and put them into the water bag so that they could drink it when night fell.

Lao Yu really likes people like Lin Shen who spend money lavishly on credit, and is not afraid at all that Lin Shen will not pay back his debts.

He left a bag of medicinal soup for Ximen Jianke and warned him not to go out as night was about to come.

In fact, Ximen Jianke is very weak now, with black spots all over his body. It is difficult for him to get out of bed, so he probably won't go out.

Ximen Jianke didn't say anything, but he looked at Lin Shen with a strange look.

"It's also Lin Shen's first time on the Giant Ring Star, so why does he seem to be fine? What's wrong with me?" Ximen Jianke was very depressed.

"It's almost time. After I leave, lock the door from the inside." Seeing that he was in much better spirits, at least he was conscious again, Lin Shen closed the door and went out.

After returning to his eldest sister's stone house, Lin Shen closed the door, locked it from the inside, and gave his eldest sister another bowl of medicine soup.

The eldest sister didn’t feel so uncomfortable anymore and was finally able to get some sleep.

There was nothing inside the stone house except a stone bed. There was not even a stool. There were a few large stones that seemed to be used as stools.

Lin Shen found a stone that was comfortable to sit on, sat down and waited for the night to fall.

"What will happen in this dark night?" Lin Shen pondered in his heart.

Finally, when it was dark, although the stone house had no windows, the light coming through the crack in the door suddenly disappeared.

It was not the kind of darkness that comes when the sun slowly sets, but more like the lights suddenly going out in an already dark room.

It was dark, so dark that there was no light at all, and you couldn’t see your hand in front of you.

Lin Shen wanted to look through the crack in the door to see what was happening outside, but he could see nothing. There was no light at all outside and his eyes were completely useless.

Lin Shen originally thought that after his eyes adjusted, he should be able to see some light, but after waiting for a long time, his eyes still couldn't adjust. It was as if he was blind and couldn't see anything.

Suddenly, Lin Shen heard a faint voice, as if someone was singing next door.
