[Hint: The player transitioned into unknown world coordinates.]
The transition lasted more than five minutes, and a line of ga hints slowly appeared on the retina.
After a brief bout of turbulence, the ship gradually stabilized.
Ahead, through the ship’s tal-glass window, sunlight began to erge from the black chaos.
Outside the ship was a vast green prairie.
"Transition complete, initiating ship premonition check procedure..."
"Ship’s current damage level is severe, imdiate maintenance required..."
As the transition completed, Li Zixuan imdiately checked various ship diagnostics on the control screen and instructed the ship’s control team to begin inspections and develop an ergency repair plan.
Wayne and the rest of the players felt a sense of relief.
It had been intense.
The turbulence during the transition had been so violent that they were genuinely worried sothing might go wrong with the ship.
They had finally arrived safely.
And judging by the outside environnt, this place didn’t look bad at all?
After nearly a month of staring at dim yellow dust storms, the sight of blue skies and white clouds instantly improved everyone’s mood.
"Conducting external domain scan."
"Detected traces of life forms in this star zone..."
"Assessing biological threat level... Threat: none..."
"Atmospheric pressure: 1.1 standard..."
Due to the lack of resources, the ship was only equipped with the most basic detection instrunts. The sensors could only perform basic scans and had a very limited radius.
"Looks like the environnt here is pretty good." Fang Heng nodded toward Li Zixuan. "Let’s go outside and have a look around."
"Alright. I’ll begin analyzing the safety index of this world and handle the ship repairs. Stay in contact."
Wayne and his team stepped outside in protective suits and tried jumping around a few tis to get a feel for the environnt.
Soon, after Li Zixuan confird that the air in the current world was breathable, the team took off their protective suits.
This world was extrely similar to the one they originally lived in!
Fang Heng tried throwing out a few rune papers. The Lickers spread out in all directions, searching for usable ores and energy materials.
"Boss Fang, how about giving us a break?"
Fang Heng extended his perception and confird there were no threatening native creatures nearby. He nodded and said, "Alright, two days off."
"Whew, vacation ti!"
The players completely relaxed, sprawling across the grassland.
After more than half a month stuck in that god-awful dark place sorting ores, they finally got a chance to unwind.
Soon, Li Zixuan and her research team stepped off the ship to gather information about the local world.
Li Zixuan crossed her arms, feeling the breeze brush her face, inhaling the scent of nature.
Standing beside her, Fang Heng asked quietly, "How’s the ship doing?"
"Mm, the ship’s damage level matches our premonitions fairly well. If materials are available, we should be able to finish repairs in three days."
Li Zixuan, in a good mood, chuckled and said, "But since you gave us two days off, now we’ll need five days total."
"Alright then." Fang Heng shrugged, gazing into the distance. "Any clues about the ’Ancient Humans’?"
"I’m not sure. I don’t have enough intel. I suspect the ’Ancient Humans’ may have left behind ruins of so kind..."
Li Zixuan thought for a mont. "The detailed information is in the hands of the Eastern Federation, but I believe since our ancestors lived here, traces shouldn’t be too hard to find."
...
The ship stayed in the New World for a full seven days.
During those seven days, the Lickers scouted most of the New World.
The planet’s surface terrain was vast. The Lickers discovered so wild creatures scattered throughout the world, but their threat levels were low, and there were no large-scale groups—mostly scattered individuals.
If this were a ga world, this New World probably wouldn’t even qualify as a low-level world.
The planet’s ore reserves were also pitifully low. Most of what was found were low-level ores, and there were nearly no energy crystal ores at all, making it seem like it had already been heavily mined.
Wayne’s team also led several player search parties, but found nothing.
By now, the ship’s damage had been fully repaired, and the next stage of shipbuilding—rebuilding compartnts and internal systems—had begun.
Due to the scarcity of materials, many items couldn’t be directly forged and had to be obtained through the spawn exchange system.
A huge loss.
In addition, no traces related to the ’Ancient Humans’ had been found.
Fang Heng and Li Zixuan discussed the situation, wondering if there had been an intelligence error.
"In recent years, I’ve been undercover in the Western District Federation and haven’t followed up on late-stage ’Ancient Humans’ research, so I can’t help much. But I can confirm the coordinates are accurate. The environnt of this world matches the records."
"Then let’s keep searching for a while longer and hope we find sothing."
Fang Heng decided to stay a bit longer to continue the search, while also continuing ship construction and upgrading its level, until it could accept missions from the spawn system.
Just as he left the main control room, Fang Heng suddenly rembered sothing and slapped his forehead.
Idiot!
He suddenly realized one thing.
He was no longer in the ga!
While the ship had lost contact with the outer world, he could use the imprint on the back of his hand to return directly to the ga!
That way, he could contact the Eastern Federation!
Ti to try it!
Fang Heng glanced around, then closed his eyes.
This ti, things were slightly different from his past entries into the ga.
After closing his eyes, he saw a gate covered in a black mist.
As usual, he tried pushing the door open.
The gate opened a crack.
Instantly, thick black mist began pouring out from the gap!
His vision plunged into darkness.
If soone had been standing near Fang Heng at that mont, they would’ve seen black fog rapidly surge out of him, enveloping his entire body until he disappeared completely.
...
It was unknown how much ti had passed when Fang Heng reopened his eyes.
Death Realm.
He was back.
Fang Heng realized he had successfully returned to the ga.
It worked.
But the scene he had seen just before entering the ga was a bit strange.
Was it because he had unlocked the ’lock’ in the real world?
Fang Heng pondered this and raised his head, frowning slightly.
He rembered his last visit to the Death Realm was more than a month ago.
Compared to last ti, the aura of death in the Death Realm had significantly weakened.
Was it because he took the ’Death Realm Orb’ away?
"Mr. Fang Heng."
Kotal, having received word from his people, quickly arrived with a few clan mbers to greet him.
"Kotal, it’s been a while. How’s the Death Realm holding up?"
Kotal sighed internally, "To be honest with you, the situation is very bad. Our people have already begun transferring into the new world."
