Chapter 269: Ten Thousand Times Light Speed Slave World
Through the star map intercepted from the Imperial Fleet, Zhang Hong learned that his current location was already at the edge of the Solar Star Region.
It was very close to Terra.
——Less than 20,000 light years.
Compared to the previous journey from the Hope Galaxy in the Ghoul Star Domain to Terra, which almost spans the entire Milky Way and is more than 80,000 light years away, it is indeed much closer.
The experience during this period has brought about some changes in Zhang Hong's mentality.
He decided to travel in a different way.
No longer using the webpath, but traveling by physical flight.
It was a good opportunity to test the knowledge he had gained from the Black Library of the Laughing God Xigod and the Well of Time.
Zhang Hong has a deeper understanding of the cosmic laws of the Warhammer world, which has also allowed him to develop more ways to utilize his abilities.
The Angel of Vengeance and the Shadow Prophet were both taken into the reincarnation space.
Zhang Hong was not prepared to travel with these two burdens.
He looked at the starry sky and determined the direction of the solar system.
He took a deep breath, clenched his fists, and flew into the depths of the universe.
Zhang Hong struck the classic Superman flying pose, with his fists facing forward, eyes looking forward, and his abdomen and back parallel to the direction of flight.
Although this posture is not handsome, it saves a lot of effort.
Convenient to reach maximum flight speed.
The biological force field covers the surface of the body, offsetting the interaction between Zhang Hong and the physical universe.
In a flash, Zhang Hong broke through the speed of light and turned into a [black light] invisible to the naked eye, rapidly shuttling through the physical universe.
Ten times, twenty times, thirty times... Zhang Hong kept accelerating.
Finally, when it was close to one hundred times the speed of light, Zhang Hong's flying speed reached its limit.
Zhang Hong felt that this speed was the limit of his normal flying speed.
Although he could still speed up, it would make him feel tired and unable to maintain long-term flight.
Just like ordinary people switch from walking to running.
You can walk all day, but you can only run for an hour or two.
low efficiency.
But Zhang Hong's flight acceleration has just begun.
In addition to relying on Superman's own flying ability to fly, he also has other super powers.
Zhang Hong's eyes were covered with a layer of blue light.
He controlled his super vision and switched to a field of vision that was not visible to the human eye or even to observation instruments made by humans.
The dark universe turned into a colorful spectrum in his eyes, full of colorful and changing ripples.
At this time, Zhang Hong's eyes could even see gravitational waves directly.
As the perspective switched, the boundaries of the physical universe, subspace, and multiple cosmic dimensions appeared in Zhang Hong's eyes.
Zhang Hong's mental power, which was enough to move the stars, surged out and condensed around his body, just enough to cover the narrow space around him.
Pry open the subspace energy, the dark matter and dark energy of the physical universe.
Swish!
As if accompanied by a silent sound.
Zhang Hong immediately broke through the barrier of the physical universe and entered the boundary of the dimension. His flying speed increased instantly.
It suddenly increased from one hundred times the speed of light to ten thousand times the speed of light, a full one hundred times increase!
Zhang Hong used his powerful mental power to break through the barrier of time and space and entered the edge of the dimension intersection.
Moving quickly through the universe in a kind of skipping stone manner.
If the physical universe is equivalent to water and the subspace is equivalent to air, then Zhang Hong's movement at this moment is like a flying fish skipping on the water.
Much faster than swimming in water.
But he did not completely leave the water and enter the air.
Therefore, he would not be disturbed by the subspace, nor would he crash into the subspace and fall into the gathering of four vendors for unknown reasons like last time.
Zhang Hong also referred to the technical principles of Wangdao and added a layer of protection for himself to ensure that he was always in a safe dimension.
By drawing on the principle of curvature navigation, a compressed space bubble is created around the body to achieve multiplied superluminal flight.
Zhang Hong was very satisfied with the test flight results.
With almost the same energy consumption as "walking", the flying speed has increased by two orders of magnitude, easily reaching ten thousand times the speed of light.
If he maintains this speed, Zhang Hong would theoretically only need less than two years to reach Terra.
It’s a similar experience to ordinary people traveling around the world.
This is the time consumption that Zhang Hong feels is ideal.
Not too long, and not too rushed.
On the way, you can also take a look at the scenery of the Milky Way and investigate the conditions of various human planets you pass by.
Think of it as a trip around the galaxy.
Thinking of this, Zhang Hong flew a distance of several light hours in an instant. The surrounding starlight was stretched into countless endless straight lines that passed by him.
……
Taking the solar system as the coordinate, it is located at the northeastern edge of the Milky Way, the Ghoul Star Region.
The dim stars here are far away from the hustle and bustle of the empire, but not far away from the suffering of war.
Elias, a lost planet not recorded in the empire's territory.
Since the Dark Age ten thousand years ago, this place has been forgotten by Terra.
There are countless worlds like Ilais in the Milky Way. Because of the turmoil of the Dark Age for five thousand years, they lost contact with the solar system. Even after the Emperor launched the Great Crusade to reunite humanity, these worlds failed to return to the embrace of the Empire.
The Milky Way is too huge, and the Empire's millions of worlds are only a few or even a dozen times the size of human civilization in the Golden Age.
In fact, the number of human planets throughout the Milky Way far exceeds millions.
Because of its long-term isolation from the outside world, Elias gradually declined into a semi-feudal and semi-slave society. Although some technologies were retained, a large amount of culture and knowledge had been lost.
City-states stand on Elias, and the rulers called "City Lords" rule the city-states and are also the largest slave owners in the city-states.
Although unfortunately it has lost contact with the central government of Terra, fortunately, Ilais has rarely suffered large-scale invasions by aliens and demons.
Occasionally, a small number of alien creatures drift here and cause some minor trouble.
There are more endless wars between city-states.
Marriage, alliance, conquest, division and integration are the eternal themes of human civilization.
Ten thousand years have passed, and since the split in the Dark Age, the forces on this planet have not been able to achieve integration and unification.
The largest city-state of Elias, called Olympia, was built on a majestic mountain.
The castle lord's family found some ancient mythology and named their mountain castle after the place where the king of the gods was located in the myth.
The scattered stone buildings extend in circles to the top of the mountain. The rulers here spent thousands of years building a mountain city. The entire city was built on the mountain, and the city lord’s majestic palace stood on the top of the mountain.
The minerals on the mountains, the rivers and fields at the foot of the mountains are all the territories of the Mountain City.
The nobles lived on the top of the mountain, the military and the wealthy lived halfway up the mountain, and the citizens lived at the foot of the mountain. As for the common people and slaves, they were not worthy of having a residence in the mountain city and could only live in the villages on the plains and in the wilderness.
When war comes, these villages are the most vulnerable to attack and looting.
Although 90% of the harvest had to be handed over to the landlords, the common people were satisfied to have a stable job and to barely make ends meet.
And with the slave class as a contrast, the sense of happiness of the civilian class suddenly emerges.
Slaves were not well fed or clothed, lived in dirty thatched huts that looked like pig sties, and worked more than ten hours a day. They would often be over-exploited and die from overwork after a few years.
