Data Wasteland - chapter 943 Divine Power
The fire is bright in the huge arched passage. Two rows of goblins held torches and explored next to the cave wall.
Chen Xing and the seventh princess followed, walking along the track.
Ten minutes passed, and the scene in the tunnel remained unchanged. There was a bottomless darkness in front, hard walls on both sides, and cold tracks underneath.
Driven by Chen Xing, the goblin changed from walking into a trot, and then into a run of a wolf cavalry.
But ten minutes later, it was still the same scene.
To be safe, the two decided to return the same way. But at this moment, something incredible happened!
The two walked back several hundred meters, and they saw the railway platform.
The old steam train stopped at the edge of the platform, exactly the same as the scene when it left.
The two quickened their pace, returned to the platform, checked around, and found that it was the original place.
“What’s the matter? We have obviously gone a long way!” Chen Xing looked at the seventh princess, and pinned the answer to the master’s huge knowledge base.
But seeing the seventh princess shook her head, she didn’t seem to have a clue.
“Try again.”
The two returned to the train tunnel. In order to improve efficiency, Nova summoned the phantom feather snake to explore the way ahead, while Chen Xing summoned the White Wolf King, took the Seventh Princess, and ran at full speed on the rails.
After more than ten minutes, the two ran more than 30 kilometers. Feeling almost done, I turned around, but after running for less than half a minute, I returned to the platform again.
“hiss……”
Looking at the familiar sight in front of him, Chen Xing couldn’t help taking a breath.
Next, the two tried a few more times, and the results were the same each time. No matter how far they ran, as long as they turned around, they would be able to return to the railway platform for a few hundred meters.
The situation is too weird, it seems that moving forward is just an illusion in the mind, they have never left the range of the platform. This also explains very well why at the very beginning, Chen Xing couldn’t feel how far the wolf cavalry ran.
Chen Xing couldn’t help but think of ghost stories he had heard when he was a child. Could it be that they encountered the legendary “Ghost Strikes the Wall”!
Just as Chen Xing was thinking about it, the princess 7 who was frowning and contemplating suddenly raised her eyelashes, revealing an active expression, “I see!”
“Do you know what?” Chen Xing asked subconsciously.
“I know what the reason is!” The Seventh Princess looked at Chen Xing, slightly excited, “Do you know the reason and characteristics of the world fragments?”
“Know a little…” Chen Xing nodded.
World debris is the space debris left behind when a certain world ushered in its end. They are silent in the undercurrent of time and space, until one day they flow into other worlds. In the case of features, it is activated again.
The space debris that flows into other worlds will gradually communicate and merge with this space.
There are two ways of fusion. The first is rejection, which is incompatible with the world, which will eventually cause the space to explode and turn into dust into the world. The second is stable fusion, which gradually merges into the world over a long period of time.
“Then have you heard of the vase theory?” The Seventh Princess asked again.
“Vase theory?” Chen Xing wondered, “What vase represents a woman’s vase?” He looked at each other, “Are you a vase?”
A vase usually refers to a woman who doesn’t seem to be useful, she is beautiful and has no talent.
“You are really a bad guy.” The seventh princess seriously commented, and then made an explanation, “The vase theory is an extension of the broken window theory, revealing the formation process and internal laws of world fragments through the movement and changes of the vase…”
“When a vase falls from a height and falls into countless fragments on the ground, what is the law of the shape, size and number of these fragments?”
The seventh princess asked herself and replied, “Vases are irregular objects, and they must rupture from the weak points first, and the strong parts will most likely form complete fragments.”
“Do you know what factors determine the weakness and strength of space?” Seventh Princess asked, like a little teacher teaching students.
“This classmate…” Chen Xing patted the other person on the shoulder, “Do you know my educational background?”
“The statistics show that you haven’t read elementary school.” The Seventh Princess replied.
“Yeah, I haven’t even studied in elementary school. Why do you ask me so many questions?” Chen Xing said grimly, “Just say what you want, don’t keep asking questions, okay! Classmate Zhao, Teacher Nova !”
“But, I think you are quite clever.” The Seventh Princess turned her face, “Although you haven’t studied in elementary school, you are more cunning than many scholars.”
After listening to Chen Xing, he smiled immediately, “No one has told you…”
“You are good at chatting,” he said.
“Thank you for your compliment!” The seventh princess nodded in return.
Then, she went on to explain the vase theory.
The strength of a space is determined by the energy contained in the space. There is a proportional relationship between the two, that is, the higher the energy intensity, the larger the total amount, and the stronger the space.
This is why the undercurrent relics can be found in the fragments of the world.
Without the support of these powerful energy substances, the space might have been shattered long ago. At the same time, if a world fragment is mined and all the energy-containing matter is taken away, then the speed of space fusion will increase geometrically.
This railway station is completely preserved and its spatial structure is stable. It must be because of certain powerful substances containing huge energy that separate this space from the originally ruined world.
Having said this, the seventh princess slowly turned her head and cast her eyes on the ancient steam train.
Chen Xing instantly blessed his soul and said, “You mean, the main reason for forming this space is that infinite steam engine?”
“The infinite steam engine is the energy core that supports the existence of this space.” He draws inferences about it. “Because the core was removed, the space was in chaos, so no matter how we walked, we couldn’t leave the station.”
“You are so smart!” The Seventh Princess looked surprised. Because the information in the database tells her that if you want to gain the favor of this man and reduce the risk factor of joint action, you must praise the other person more.
Then she went on to explain, “According to the vase theory, the greater the correlation between the space and the energy core, the more complete the preservation.”
“The extension of the infinite steam engine is the train, the extension of the train is the rail, and the extension of the rail is the platform and tunnel…”
“So?” Chen Xing couldn’t understand it again. “You mean, the space will return to normal if the infinite steam engine is installed back?”
“Not necessarily.” The Seventh Princess pointed to the steam train, “If we can start it, maybe we will be able to reach the next stop.”
Chen Xing walked over and put his foot on the locomotive. As a result, he didn’t move at all, and he didn’t even make a sound. He only felt as thick as a mountain and rock solid.
“This thing is so heavy, how do you start it?”
The seventh princess did not answer, but stepped forward, and with a slight pause, countless parts flew out of the void and assembled into a thick steam armor on a petite body.
She lifted up two giant mechanical gloves, slapped it hard, grabbed the locomotive, pulled her lunges with her feet, and pushed forward forcefully.
“Millions of steam power!”
In an instant, the six air columns behind them soared into the sky, and the entire station vibrated. The rust on the train slipped off and the metal structures rubbed against each other, making a huge noise.
“Crunch, crunch!”
“Rumble rumbling…”
Chen Xing’s eyes widened involuntarily. This kind of power is so amazing, it doesn’t look like a human creation at all. The seemingly petite body has exploded with overwhelming power.
“drink!”
In the deep and tender drink, the steam train, which was as heavy as the mountains, started slowly.
