Wow! The item-dropping rate is really high!-Chapter 893 - 630 Shield Field_2
Every fragment of God brings a sudden explosion in a certain field of technology.
So the God fragment discovered by the Bauhinia Republic's exploration team on an unmined planet has become Bauhinia Republic's hope for a resurgence.
But somehow, the news leaked unexpectedly. On the way back, the transport ship was ambushed by the Peak Alliance. Only Catherine escaped in time, smuggling the fragment back alone, leading to the encounter at Freeport.
Through an encounter over the God fragment, after understanding the cause and effect, Bai E had a general understanding of this universe's theme.
'This is indeed a good thing...'
Bai E sighed inwardly, without much greed.
The thing is good, but it was discovered and mined by others.
As the actual ruler of this Stellar District, the Peak Alliance's act of robbery was already disgraceful. If he became like them, what would that make him?
Not to mention, he hadn't even returned to his own power yet, holding onto it would be useless.
"Isn't this a bit too secretive?"
"It's okay." Catherine smiled at the corner of her mouth, "You're not one of those beasts from the Peak Alliance, I trust you. Besides, once we are on this spaceship, we will head straight back to the Bauhinia Republic. By then, all our words and actions will be watched, and it won't be good to talk about these things with you anymore."
From a national standpoint, the fewer people who know about such important secrets, the better.
If the country knew that the suspected Planetary Level powerhouse before them also knew this secret, who knows what trouble might arise.
"It's your turn." Catherine nodded slightly, "Earlier, you mentioned there were things you wanted to inquire about?"
"Hmm..." Bai E was insatiably curious about the new things seen in the universe.
Like the basis of their Psychic Energy Canopy technology.
For instance, their spaceship's technology for travelling through high-dimensional space seemed quite common.
What about bugs? Beastmen? Demons?
How do human civilizations in the universe perceive these disasters?
When facing a previously unknown planetary power, would their attitude be peaceful acceptance or plundering warfare?
The universe, in front of him, was like a layered onion, with one mysterious layer after another waiting for him to unravel.
This female warrior from the Bauhinia Republic trusted him so much, perhaps it would be okay to let her know a bit about himself?
While waiting, the two had already followed the crowd, queuing into the departure port hall of Freeport.
Sitting on the spaceship, amidst a slight vibration, Bai E felt the smooth acceleration of the spaceship gradually leaving the port.
The profound and vast feeling from Spiritual Energy washed over him once more, and under the current circumstance of not possessing much power himself, that sense of insignificance was especially vivid.
Having had one encounter, Bai E couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive about high-dimensional space.
Sitting shoulder to shoulder with Catherine, Bai E looked at the ship's wall beside him, trying to look through the grey iron wall ahead to see the true void space outside, "Have we already entered the high-dimensional space route?"
"Hmm..." Catherine nodded calmly, feeling a bit excited inside.
This technician Bai was powerful and mysterious.
Possessing abilities stronger than hers, yet seemingly having little understanding of the world.
Such an existence should have already encountered many truths about this world, but his behavior appeared somewhat... ignorant?
The strange mismatch between strength and knowledge had already aroused a bold speculation in her mind.
And now, perhaps was the moment when this speculation might be confirmed.
A person's knowledge comes from many aspects; some basic concepts can reveal more significant issues.
"Isn't there any danger here?" Bai E asked quietly.
"Danger?" Catherine was taken aback, "What danger?"
"The danger of accidents." Bai E turned to Catherine, speaking solemnly, "My spaceship had an accident once."
"An accident?" Catherine frowned, "Was it hijacked by the Black Pirate King?"
A spaceship with a powerhouse like Bai E could only have been hijacked by the Cosmic Pirate King, another Planetary Level powerhouse, what else could it be?
Bai E slowly shook his head, "No, it happened right in this high-dimensional space."
"Accidents in high-dimensional space are very rare; this is the safest place."
Though, theoretically, high-dimensional space is not absolutely safe, in all her adventures, she had never seen a spaceship have an accident directly in high-dimensional space.
The odds of an accident are likely less than one in ten million.
Even if some fatal problem arises in the spaceship's structure, it will explode only after the ship exits high-dimensional space.
Although the high-dimensional space inhabited by high-dimensional demons is not peaceful, in terms of spaceship navigation, it is considered one of the safest places in the universe.
Bai E stared into her eyes and said solemnly, "But we did encounter an accident."
Though she had guessed it earlier, hearing it confirmed made Catherine narrow her eyes slightly, "So your spaceship... did not have a Shield Field?"
Bai E's eyes darkened slightly, "Never heard of it..."
"Daring to charge straight into high-dimensional space without a Shield Field..." Catherine's pupils shrunk slightly, "I bet it wasn't an accident right after entering?"
In their universe, spaceships entering high-dimensional space must be equipped with a "Shield Field Generator" to travel freely, which is a common consensus among everyone.
This consensus comes from the explorations of some daring adventurers.
Any spaceship without a "Shield Field Generator," upon entering high-dimensional space, would immediately suffer from the natural corrosion of that space.
If they notice in time and retreat, usually not much trouble occurs.
But the fact that this technician Bai's knowledge and ability are both evidently not from this Stellar District, and now he talked about his spaceship having encountered an accident in high-dimensional space, his origin is almost evident.
This mysterious powerhouse must have come from a remote, unexplored corner of the universe.
High-dimensional space is not absolutely related to the material world, but they are positively correlated.
Humans will never stop exploring the unknown.
Their current Stellar District might be considered a remote region in the entire human map, but to them, the cosmic space within hundreds of light-years around has been thoroughly explored, never missing any planet capable of hosting a civilization.
The fact that the other party could appear here must mean he carried his spaceship across the endless cosmic space until the ship malfunctioned due to the lack of a Shield Field and he had to eject from high-dimensional space, thereby stranding him here.
The continuous corrosion of human spaceships in high-dimensional space happens incessantly, yet their spaceship managed to navigate far through this space without a Shield Field due to a mighty Spiritual Energy user's will protecting the whole ship.
Realizing this, Catherine's pupils shrank, realizing the other party might be a transcendent leader stronger than herself.
He led his civilization to develop spaceships capable of interstellar travel but didn't develop a Shield Field to protect them during high-dimensional space travel.
This great leader attempted to lead his people into joining the universal family using his abilities alone, but ultimately ended up deserted and stranded in a foreign place.
