Chapter 299: Traveling at Top Speed

Translator: Lordbluefire  Editor: Lordbluefire

“Traces of life activities? What is the situation? Alien races?” Upon encountering this unexpected surprise, Feng Lin instinctively thought toward the pessimistic direction.

“No, these are traces of artificial excavation. This planet was excavated by humans before, and it was not too long ago. Roughly, they were just here about eleven days, one hour, and thirty-six minutes ago.”

“Oh?” Feng Lin contemplated as his heart stirred.

This was the very edge of the Milky Way Galaxy. Although he had lost his way, in theory, he shouldn’t be too far from the Great Wall University.

The people that had been here had a very high possibility of being people from the Great Wall University. If he found them, wouldn’t that mean…

“Charge your energy to the max level, we will travel full speed ahead,” Feng Lin commanded.

The flying shuttle began to start up a moment later.

Those worker robots unleashed their greatest efficiency and began to build mineral extraction installations.

Blocks of high-energy minerals were being collected and stirred into a material shredder to convert them into a sufficient amount of energy.

The flying shuttle’s energy index surged up, from 10% all the way to 100%.

Now, the asteroid that was as large as a mountain had been completely excavated. All of its energy minerals were fully mined, leaving behind only rocks and ruins.

Boom!

At the tail-end of the flying shuttle, intense flames shot out as the temperature increased. It took only a short time to power up as it began flying into the depths of the starry space.

Speed up, increase speed, even faster!

The ship began to turn illusory, manifesting many after-images. It was like a beam of silver light that directly shot through space.

This was it becoming a unique phenomenon, reaching sublight velocity state.

During the Ancient Earth Era, the theory of relativity pointed out that the closer one was to the speed of light, the mass of the object would increase indefinitely.

Unless an object passed through a wormhole, it was basically impossible for the acceleration of matter alone to exceed the speed of light.

The sublight velocity state was one of the most energy-saving, high-speed driving modes.

Beyond this threshold, the more it accelerated, the more would the energy rise exponentially, which was of little significance.

Red dwarfs were a result of star collapsing. They had a huge gravitational pull that would capture a large number of asteroids, forming an incredibly dense ring of stars.

The flying shuttle sped forth swiftly. With such high speeds, no matter how vast the solar system was, it wouldn’t take him more than half an hour to traverse it.

Countless minor planets in all shapes and forms whisked past them.

There were planets made of only water, diamond-packed planet with gold mines along a huge gold vein in the land’s nucleus, and a radioactive planet purely made up of radioactive matter…

Feng Lin stood in the flying shuttle, sighing with emotions as he stared at these scenes.

The wonders and vastness of the universe would always cause people to sigh in magnificence every time they saw it.

By staring into the horizons here in outer space, one could sense how vast the universe was. Feng Lin sighed at how tiny and inconsequential humans were.

All of their successes and glory weren’t even worthy of mention in comparison.

His heart and mind seemed to have been baptized, becoming clearer than ever.

Feng Lin sat cross-legged. There were no distractions in his heart as he began his breathing exercises.

On the way there, the flying shuttle activated its scanner radar, tracking the minuscule signs of human traces.

Those traces were growing clearer and clearer.

It seemed that their traveling speed couldn’t be considered fast. The traces then were ten days ago but now, Feng Lin was only three days away. This indicated that the distance between him and them was growing closer and closer.

After being lost for so long, he finally found his way.

Feng Lin involuntarily felt pleased.

In the blink of an eye, two days passed.

The A.I. voiced out something, causing him to awaken.

“Master, I’ve already tracked the human flying shuttle. The Flowerfruit Mountain has entered concealment mode automatically!”

Feng Lin opened his eyes and saw that there was indeed an extremely large object slowly flying through the space ahead.

This was a flying shuttle whose exterior was completely made from metal. It had a strange shape and looked like a bloated giant wheel with many patches covering it from repairs. It looked extremely tattered and shabby, looking like a botched product.

The hull of that flying shuttle was shaking like it was made from a garbage dump. The parts on the flying shuttle seemed like it would be shaken off at any time as the whole thing seemed liable to collapse with no warning.

This was a universe flying shuttle?

Feng Lin was completely stunned.

Although he had seen many things before and had a broadened horizon, he had never expected something like this.

(Can this even be used?)

Although it looked tattered, from it, one could see traces of human technology.

With just a glance, Feng Lin could tell that this wasn’t a flying shuttle from the Great Wall University.

As one of the top ten universities in the cosmos, the Great Wall University naturally had peak-level geniuses that were gathered from the field of science. Their standards of science and technology would never allow them to produce such a shabby product.

The origins of this flying shuttle wasn’t clear at all.

But even so, Feng Lin decided to continue following it. Very soon, he discovered something strange.

Although the exterior looked shabby, like it was on the point of collapse, its functions seemed stable and its traveling speed couldn’t be considered slow. It traveled stably at a speed which was ⅓ of the speed of light and there was surveillance equipment protruding out from it.

This was already at the edge of the Milky Way, and the coordinates of this place were very near the Great Wall University. It was just that Feng Lin didn’t know what was the exact direction.

He could easily tell with a glance that this tattered-looking shuttle was active in these surroundings all year round. It was very possible that they had accurate coordinates for the Great Wall University.

However, the universe was too dangerous. Without a suitable opportunity, they might view him as an enemy if he simply went near them.

If that was the case, things would surely be awkward.

It would be extremely troublesome.

Even Feng Lin whose will was so tough also felt mentally fatigued. He didn’t want to stir up trouble if trouble could be avoided.

The Flowerfruit Mountain entered concealment mode and followed this tattered-looking shuttle silently from far away.

All of a sudden, the gigantic tattered-looking shuttle seemed to have discovered something. It slowed down and landed on one of the planets.

After that, tens of robotic arms resembling centipedes protruded from the hull, looking extremely thick but durable. They became giant drill bits and began buzzing as they drilled through the ground, into the earthcore of the planet.

All sorts of minerals were crushed into slag and extracted before quickly screened out and absorbed back into the hull.

(Is this shuttle a mining ship? No, it’s more than that!)

Feng Lin noticed that a large amount of fresh water was also being absorbed in.

“Interesting!”

After accomplishing its objective, the flying shuttle took off again, leaving behind a barren planet.

The Flowerfruit Mountain followed behind it.

The tattered-looking shuttle would often stop every time it came across a planet with resources. It would then began the whole process of extraction.

Feng Lin began to silently speculate.

(The shuttle collected so many mineral resources, and the amount has already surpassed what their flying shuttle needed. Where are they shipping these resources to?)

(This remote region near the edge of the Milky Way should only have the Great Wall University here, right? Could it be that it is the university that requires so many resources?)

His heart stirred. Following his speculations, wouldn’t he be able to reach the Great Wall University just by following this flying shuttle all the way?

After realizing the truth, Feng Lin was no longer in a hurry. He might as well just allow his flying shuttle to follow behind it as he focused on his cultivation.

The more he experienced, the clearer he was regarding the cruelty of the universe.

The flourishing period of humanity that looked extremely rosy actually had countless people bearing the burden at the back.

The law of the jungle was too brutal.

Ordinary people might be able to live in their own small corner, but Feng Lin couldn’t do that.

Cultivators were the core of humanity’s strength!

As one walked down this path, they would encounter alien races sooner or later. Cultivators had no qualifications to relax.

Genetic potential +1.5, +1.5, +1.5…

With this thought in mind, Feng Lin cast aside all distractions as his genetic potential surged up while he cultivated. After some time, it reached 126.2 and he obtained another free transcendent genetic point.

But even before he could make the decision to add it to whichever gene, a warning rang out from the A.I..

“Master, there’s a large number of unidentified flying objects up ahead!”

Feng Lin opened his eyes and glanced toward the horizons. At this moment, he saw many ancient-styled propeller-equipped flying shuttles. Boiling steam gushed out from them, leaving behind white trails of smoke.

(This is…? Steam-powered flying shuttle?!)
