Destiny Mission of game 'Star Ring'-Chapter 1508 - 1195: Analysis (First Update)

Su Mo quickly issued the sailing order upon receiving the device, parted ways with Augustus and others, and set out towards the dark side of Ceres with the hope of countless people.

Three days later, in the Star Destroyer Grey Fin’s meeting room.

Su Mo convened a high-level meeting attended by Gris, Captain Salile, and others.

The main character of this meeting was not Su Mo but Gris, who, after obtaining the drifting distress device, thoroughly analyzed the information within it.

Gris raised his electronic bracelet, inputting a series of commands. He then projected a very simplified star map, where one could clearly see the center marked as Negative God Star and the surroundings marked as Ceres, etc.

"Through my analysis of this distress device, we can basically estimate the target preliminarily. The target we need to search and rescue is likely in the starry sky on the back side of Ceres."

Upon hearing this, Salile and others appeared increasingly solemn but did not voice any complaints.

Su Mo said to Gris, "Go on."

"As far as I know, the Federation’s Freedom Fortress has been missing for about two years, and from the mechanical scale read from this device, this drifting device was placed 1 year and 2 months ago. And it takes about a thousand years for Ceres to orbit Negative God Star, so the time deviation of a year and more wouldn’t be too big, but..."

Gris suddenly looked serious.

"But what?"

Su Mo asked in a deep voice.

"Based on the information and speculations I obtained, I’m quite certain that Freedom Fortress mistakenly entered the Absolute Forbidden Zone."

"Absolute Forbidden Zone? What’s that place?"

Su Mo asked curiously.

"You should be quite aware that Negative God Star and Ceres themselves are very special existences. Research shows that these two create a special gravitational field, which normally isn’t very strong. So when we travel from Star Ring City to Ceres, as long as the anti-gravity system is activated, we didn’t notice it. However, when the special gravitational field of Negative God Star collides with that of Ceres, a violent reaction occurs, pulling each other to form a special region, the Absolute Forbidden Zone·Demon’s Eye. Anyone who enters it can almost forget about coming out, and the area I entered before was this region."

Gris said in a deep voice.

Su Mo rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache, and said, "Can the range where they fell be determined?"

"No, if luck is good, the entry depth might not be so great. If luck is bad, it might be deeper than what I entered before. No one can say for sure."

"Alright."

Su Mo responded helplessly.

"But I can responsibly tell you that it’s more dangerous in there than you imagine. The special starry sky environment breeds special monsters, and various unprecedented dangers. I hope for this rescue mission, you can trust me and heed all my suggestions."

Gris warned seriously.

Salile solemnly stated, "Rest assured We will follow all orders."

"Then that’s fine."

Gris didn’t say much more.

At this moment, Su Mo stood up and said, "I believe with everyone’s concerted effort, we can certainly conquer this Absolute Forbidden Zone. Let’s do it."

"Let’s do it!"

...

Half a month later.

In the Grey Fin’s command room.

Su Mo was gazing at the distant starry sky through optical devices.

The entire starry sky was almost dark, with occasional drifting asteroids and debris visible around.

Initially, upon departure, they occasionally encountered wandering monsters.

However, with the Star Destroyer Grey Fin’s capability to stealth, they avoided most troubles, leaving only a few unavoidable monsters, which they spent some effort to deal with.

But as they went deeper, the number of monsters encountered along the way significantly decreased, until now, they didn’t even see any trace of monsters.

Sometimes, Su Mo even felt a delusion, as though the endless deep space ahead was like a fierce beast opening its jaws, ready to swallow them, with an inexplicable oppressive feeling.

At this moment, Salile looked at Gris and asked, "Should we continue heading in this direction?"

"Yes, keep the course, make sure the mechanical level gauge doesn’t deviate."

Gris replied in a deep voice.

Since the start of the voyage, Gris had stayed in the command room, eating and sleeping there. Apart from necessary sleep, he had been keeping watch hands-on, appearing somewhat possessed, with bloodshot eyes.

The people in the command room felt quite pressured too.

"Gris, why don’t you take a good rest? Such intensive work is wearing on your body."

Su Mo walked to Gris’s side and said.

"No, no, I feel we are close to entering the Absolute Forbidden Zone."

Gris shook his head and responded.

At that moment, the whole Star Destroyer suddenly shook violently.

Buzz buzz~

The entire holographic display image immediately became chaotic, even the control console’s resolution instruments were completely paralyzed.

To know under normal conditions, even though there’s heavy interference on Ceres’s side, the worst affected are equipment like scanning devices.

Now it was apparent that intelligent devices were all impacted by the interference.

"What’s going on?"

Salile turned his head to look at his subordinates, with a dark expression.

"Captain, our instruments are severely interfered with, most are absolutely disabled."

The operators present hurriedly checked the control console and then given a terrifying conclusion.

"Switch to manual mode immediately."

Salile suppressed the unease in his heart and immediately ordered. The current situation was terribly bad. Knowing some instruments hadn’t completely failed earlier, they could still use internal instruments to somewhat judge and estimate the sailing situation.

With the current situation, they’re essentially blind.

Gris remained unusually calm, seemingly anticipating this situation, he said in a deep voice.

"Don’t panic, if there’s no accident, we’ve already stepped a foot into the Absolute Forbidden Zone, the real challenge is just beginning."

Standing nearby, Su Mo gazed at the distant starry sky through optical devices, from a visual standpoint.

The starry sky looked as usual, with no anomalies.

If not for the ship’s equipment malfunctioning, Su Mo might even believe everything was normal.

Su Mo mused for a while and said.

"Everyone, stay alert."

"Yes!"

Everyone answered one after another.

...

In the central administration building of Star Ring City.

Icaroya City Lord sat before the office desk, with numerous intelligence reports placed on the spacious desk.

Scanning over them at a glance, from the titles you could see.

Eternal Sleep Clan·Kali Bay Star Domain Nest Distribution Intelligence.

Eternal Sleep Clan·Light Meteor Sea Nest Distribution Intelligence.

Eternal Sleep Clan·Level 6 Hatchery Nest·Chikame Hiding Intelligence.

Eternal Sleep Clan·Ceres East Latitude Power Distribution Map.

...

These varied intelligence documents numbered one hundred and thirty-two in total.

The intelligence almost covered all strategic deployments and logistical bases of the Eternal Sleep Clan.
