I have a map editor

Lucas whistled in his mind: "Heh... woman."

……

After a day of adjustment, the atmosphere on the ship returned to normal in the evening.

I guess, except for Zhuo Yisi who was truly reflecting on her alcoholism, the other women were just reflecting in vain.

There is no need to guess what Luo Ruier is thinking. It was written on her face when she came here in the morning: worse than a beast!

As for Claire: She will dare to do it again next time.

Because there was no big goblin watching the monitoring equipment, the submarine airship was in a stopped state when there was no one in the cab.

Although there is a "I think" method, I had to travel in a hurry and did not have much time to "I think", such as automatic obstacle avoidance or automatic navigation functions.

After dinner, Lucas rechecked the reconnaissance equipment on the bridge.

It was discovered that this area was filled with numerous small land fragments similar to meteorites, creating an area of ​​floating gravel.

After briefly recalling the space environment I passed through today, I decided to drive for a while longer and return to a rock the size of a football field that I passed by before. I would use the rock as cover and stop there for the night.

As he was sailing, Emily came in with two cups of tea, pulled up a chair next to him, and handed him a cup of tea.

"Didn't you say to stop the boat for the night?"

"Yeah, but I'm not sure about staying in the air like this, so I plan to go back and find a place with some terrain cover."

"Oh"

Since Lucas was driving the boat, Emily didn't hang out with him, for fear of a real traffic accident that would shed tears for his family.

The equipment on the ship all uses computers as control units, and can be connected to the current magic network anytime and anywhere - it is called a magic network, but the main means of communication is satellite signals.

It is estimated that after countless years of evolution, the space of the Misty Realm has a good shielding effect on any magical reconnaissance or magical signals, but it does not restrict technological communication methods at all, but has an enhancing effect. This is why the radio equipment in Guanying Mountain, which originally had a communication range of only tens of kilometers, can communicate with military bases in the neighboring state hundreds or even thousands of kilometers away.

It’s just that something might have happened at the military base in the neighboring state, and they can no longer be contacted.

Many of the original Flower Country land masses around the original Guanying Mountain have gradually lost contact due to various reasons - both man-made and natural disasters.

We all know what man-made disasters are, so I won't go into details. As for natural disasters... they are mainly about the environment on the floating landmass after the crossing and the possibility of secondary or even multiple eruptions of space-time rifts.

The environmental theme of Crown Eagle Mountain is a cold winter with alternating day and night. According to radio contacts, the environmental themes of different floating land masses are also different. Some are eternal nights with normal temperatures, and there is a starry sky above that astronomy enthusiasts who are familiar with the starry sky (meow???) will curse after observing.

Some are in eternal dusk, with visibility almost pitch black. In these two environments, it is impossible to grow crops. It is the so-called God does not give food to eat, so the surviving people there... Hehe, traditional arts can be purchased for free? It is much more tragic than that. Before losing contact, the fat lady who was in charge of the radio operator in the county bureau heard the obituary there the most: So-and-so was killed and eaten by so-and-so.

Of course, there are definitely normal environments with day and night alternations.

The light during the day can serve as sunlight, which is suitable for the growth of most plants and crops. As long as there are seeds, and the survivors above are a little cooperative and organized, with the Flower Country's pancake-style living habits and a low population density, there will basically be no population, food or farming land crisis within two generations.

But are the people of Flower Country ordinary people? They always come up with new tricks.

There aren't many people, and many floating landmasses that are much larger than Guanying Mountain have only a few tens of thousands of people at most. Yet it can be like the Romance of the Three Kingdoms... No, it's the Warring States Period, the Warring States Period in District 11, when residents of a village can form gangs and organizations for whatever reason, and then dozens or even hundreds of such organizations will fight and raise poisonous insects in various ways.

Just as Lucas worried some time ago, there are decent people who grow vegetables and grains, but these decent people are often no match for the ruffians and hooligans. These ruffians and hooligans also have their own forces. What do they grow?

Leaves! Even the kind of professional unique product that cannot be described.

Even proper crop seeds and fertilizers and pesticides are hard to find, and I don’t know how they collected these things in a doomsday environment.

The magical or ironic thing is that such forces are often more powerful when placed in the Flower Kingdom system.

It's just like Silko in the League of Legends Twin Cities War, it's outrageous that when he grows up he goes back to his mother's house, it's outrageous to the extreme.

If this kind of rotten fish and shrimp were put into the mysterious country, they would have been turned into bun fillings by the twin machine guns of infantry fighting vehicles long ago, and they would have to be shoveled out afterwards, and they would be impossible to lift.

Ordinary people who are trying to survive in the doomsday are exploited by them and have almost no living space. Instead, the sick trade with leaves and unique products as the general equivalent is booming abnormally.

Men either worked in the fields in chains or took up arms and became thugs.

Women either work in the fields with chains or work in beds with chains... Of course, for the sake of political correctness, we cannot discriminate against women, and some women have become thugs and abusers in this environment.

To use a line from a cartoon: It's the world that's wrong, but it's each and every one of them who has made it so twisted.

Faced with this situation, a fierce argument broke out among the current community management of Guanying Mountain, and those who believed that they should not ask for trouble and did not agree with rescue operations in these places prevailed.

The reason is very plausible. Crown Eagle Mountain itself is now facing a threat to its survival - the One-Eyed Family, the pirate king of Fantos.

Lucas did not express his attitude, but his inner choice was to ignore it... because if he wanted to lend a helping hand, the management cost would be too high, and some necessary management measures would also cause a lot of controversy.

By comparing with the airspace map brought over from Stuart, the approximate locations of the Flower Kingdom's floating land masses have now been determined, and they are basically all located in areas where "space-time rift phenomena" are frequent.

If you leave it alone, it won't be long before you really don't need to care about it anymore - it is precisely because Lucas is facing such a dilemma or moral dilemma that he decided to go out for a trip to relax.

The last situation is that the residents of the Flower Kingdom on the floating landmass that were swept in did not have time to reel inward, and a second or even multiple time-space rift events broke out, and then these people did not know where they were swept away to.

……

Emily opened the game on the computer next to Lucas and played Candy Crush Saga.

It took Lucas an hour to find the football field-sized rock.

However, after getting closer and observing the rock through the monitoring equipment on the ship, he couldn't help but grit his teeth.

The goggles that were originally used to observe the "Gate of Time and Space" are now one of the observation devices on the ship.

On a monitoring screen, the upper surface area of ​​the rock block was clearly shown, with a circular portal that appeared to be glowing blue.

The circular shape and blue light indicate that this is a space-time channel in a stable state. Whether it appears or disappears, it is a gradual process. It will not appear or disappear suddenly. It is one of the several space-time gates that can be passed through safely.

When passing by before, Lucas didn’t notice that there was such a space-time channel above, probably because he was too far away.

Volume: Volume 2

0001

At 10 o'clock in the evening, after making thorough preparations, Lucas drove the submarine airship into the "time and space channel" that he had further stabilized with magic arrays and materials, which would become permanent with a little maintenance.

The "space-time channel" which was originally only a few meters high and wide was raised and lengthened by him to the point where a submarine airship with a radius of about 8 meters could enter.

With the Elf's "welding machine" in hand, one can fill the gaps in a roughly built portal array and fix it to a floating rock the size of a football field underfoot in just a few hours.

Several women on the ship were mobilized, each holding an elf to participate in the construction work. They may not understand mystical knowledge, but they can still do simple physical labor.

High-end magic facilities often only require simple mystical knowledge, and only three sets of magic runes with a total of no more than 15 magic runes, which are relatively basic magic runes, can expand the "space-time channel", make up for the natural dispersion of space-time stability and constrain it in the magic array constructed by magic runes, as well as several magic runes that can be used to control free magic.

A magic storage array that transforms elements into space-time magic array energy, integrating absorption, transformation and storage.

The most critical thing is the arrangement and combination of magic runes, which is the difficulty that hinders the promotion of 99% of magicians.

The rest are not a problem in a world full of rich magical elements.

Only when all the above conditions are met and the "submarine airship" is available as a means of transportation, will Lucas be interested in entering the unknown "time and space channel" for adventure. Otherwise, with his "old cautious man" temperament, goodbye, he will not choose to stay here at night.

During the construction process, he also conducted several other experiments, such as using a submarine to push the floating rock to see if the "space-time channel" above would move with it.

Otherwise, it would be too coincidental that a "space-time channel" appeared just above a floating rock. Couldn't people have appeared directly in this foggy space?

……

The crossing process was uneventful and without any surprises.

It's like driving on the highway only to go through a tunnel through the mountains.

That is to say, inside the space-time tunnel, the scene of bright clouds with faint traces of lightning is very magnificent - this is actually a bit dangerous, but it happens to be in Lucas's knowledge area, and the submarine airship has protection against this kind of space-time energy. The reason why it dares to travel in an area where space-time rifts frequently occur is that the most targeted protection of the entire spacecraft is in this aspect.

This situation did not last too long, only a few tens of seconds, and the submarine airship reached the end.

There was no fog in the passage, and it could be observed directly with the naked eye. Lucas saw a swirling cloud in front of him - this was a space-time passage with a one-way exit. The passage did not directly penetrate the two time and space, but the clouds in front showed that although it did not penetrate, there was only a barrier that was more fragile than cardboard between it and the opposite world.

At this time, you can still return by reversing the car and exit from the entrance you came from.

He looked at the people around him. Claire, Laurel and Zoeys were all getting ready to go to bed. They were wearing pajamas, leaning against the portholes with their buttocks sticking out, marveling at the magnificent bright blue light in the space-time tunnel. Emily beside them was also focusing her attention outside.

Maintaining a constant speed and activating all protective measures and stealth capabilities, the submarine airship passed through the fog.

……

What meets the eye here is a pure space scene.

Most of the view from the porthole is filled with the endless black space, and the lower half of the view is occupied by a sphere whose size is unknown and refracts sunlight - the Earth.

I don’t know if it is the Earth that everyone knows, because I haven’t made a detailed comparison yet. Through rough observation, it is basically consistent with the image of the Earth taken from space: the blue is the ocean, the white is the clouds, and the mottled colors are the land.

The submarine airship seemed to be located exactly between the sun and the earth, and the shape of the earth's surface could be clearly observed with the naked eye.

"Oh my god, this is space?"

"That's our Earth down there? We're back!?"

"Oh my god, I'm floating, there's no gravity here, it's really space!"

Emily, who was sitting next to him, turned her head and stared at Lucas with her lovely blue eyes wide open, her face full of excitement, and her body slowly floated up from her seat.

Lucas smiled.

He himself was also somewhat excited and curious. After all, this was space. Even in his time, the most successful commercial operation would cost several million. It was not an experience that ordinary people could enjoy.

He tried to make himself float in his seat, and also used a spell similar to "flying" to allow himself to choose the direction he wanted.

He knew this spell, but lacked the corresponding casting skills and basic mana, so he could not release it. However, since he was already floating in the air, he had no problem using some of the flying techniques.

The women in the cab were not sleepy at all. They excitedly "flew around" in various postures in the small space, such as flying while lying down and crossing their legs.

Sometimes, if you can't control it well, it will turn into an invincible hot wheel until it hits something in the cab.

They shouted and laughed excitedly, like unrestrained kids in an amusement park.

Lucas only tried it briefly, and after calming down, he began to adjust the submarine airship.

This is a floating airship that uses anti-gravity, so there is no need to worry about the gravity problem on it and the power problem in space. By the way, there are areas with disordered gravity in the "sub-space" area in the foggy space, but they just didn't encounter it.

But the submarine itself is designed to deal with these situations.

Lucas also has a very imaginative mind. In the time-travel setting he envisioned, this side of the "space-time channel" is space, or even directly a star, so the submarine airship can also be used as a spaceship to sustain human life activities for a long time. In the most extreme situation of being thrown into a star, if the submarine airship's protection measures are turned on to the maximum, 30 minutes of escape time can be gained before the hull completely collapses. In one of the rooms of the airship is the teleportation array.

And there is no need to worry about the supply of magic power - how can there be a lack of energy when you are already in a star? Regardless of the cost, the power of the conversion array will be turned to the maximum, and the magic power obtained in a short period of time can even be used to cast

Several forbidden spells that are as powerful as nuclear eggs.

However, seeing that the woman at home was having so much fun, he did not immediately adjust the anti-gravity rune array on the ship, but instead took other countermeasures first.

Cut off the magic power supply of the automatic water production device and close the vector nozzles distributed throughout the hull: this thing sprays air, and its principle is the wind magic circle, so it is ineffective in space.

There are also ventilation and sewage outlets.

When the highest level of protection is activated, the submarine airship will generate a closed energy shield on its surface. This shield can be regarded as a completely enclosed small space.

Use the spells fixed near all the entrances and exits to seal them again. Although the closed structures of these entrances and exits are already sealed in terms of physical design, this is the way of the cautious people.

Don't give any chance for accidents.

In addition, because it was originally flying in the air using "anti-gravity" in a gravity environment, the "anti-gravity" part of the submarine airship that was responsible for navigation was still operating according to the original mode. While the women were playing, it was actually flying away from the "earth".

Lucas first offset the spacecraft's reverse flight inertia by adjusting this part of the "anti-gravity", and then adjusted the spacecraft's flight posture and altitude - well, Lucas knew a little bit about everything, but he didn't know the specific flight altitude in space, so he could only make random adjustments to keep the entire spacecraft in a fixed floating position relative to the ground like a satellite.

At this time, the women, both big and small, had calmed down a little, and Emily paddled back to the control panel as if she was swimming.

Lucas took her hand, and the girl took the opportunity to sit on his lap, kissing and biting him and asked:

"Honey, can we go back to the ground? This spaceship... this ship can travel in space, right? Oh my God, I can't imagine that there will be a day when we can return to Earth."

These topics also successfully attracted the other three women, who also rowed over like Emily, climbed onto the bridge or gathered around Lucas and Emily.

"Dear, calm down..." Lucas looked at a few people, all of whom had excitement on their faces, and continued:

"We can fly in space and come back to the ground, but the ground... uh, no, but this Earth is probably not the Earth you have... Look carefully at the coastline below. Although I have returned my geography knowledge to the teacher a long time ago, I can roughly tell that those coastlines are different from the ones we are familiar with."

The women were so excited that they didn't notice that the first word Lucas used was "you" instead of "we". Following the direction he gave, they bounced or rowed back to the porthole, head to head and body to body. Claire even stacked herself on the other three women, and the four women looked out together.

"Ah... It doesn't match at all. It's definitely not the coastline we are familiar with."

"Is it...really?"

"So, this is not our Earth?"

"It's still Earth, just not mine"

"Parallel space, parallel universe, parallel earth"

"Ah... then we won't be able to find our parents?"

"If it's just the parents, I think you should do the same voyage we've been doing these days in the misty space near the sub-space. As long as you find the city of Rossanki, you will most likely find our parents."
