#503 - Chapter 503 Folding Space
"Our warship suddenly jumped from here to here," Dai Zheng pointed on the map.
At this time, the warship's displayed position had just left the Chang'an urban area not far away.
Dongfang Chen pondered for a moment, pointed at the map and said:
"We suddenly turned back from here just now, and now we are flying this way again. When we are about to reach the turning point, stop in advance."
"Yes!"
Dongfang Chen wanted to see if there was any barrier or something at that turning point.
...
On Qin Lao's aircraft.
"Report, Chief, the target warship suddenly disappeared," the soldier reported.
"Sigh, I know, continue monitoring," Qin Lao sighed.
"Yes!"
He knew that Dongfang Chen would not listen to him so easily.
"No one can help you now. Whether you can get out depends on your own fortune!" Qin Lao shook his head and muttered to himself.
...
Soon, Dongfang Chen's several warships had arrived at the turning point again.
They stopped in advance and began to observe carefully.
Everything seemed normal. There were no masks or portals in front.
"Send a miniature drone out," Dongfang Chen ordered.
"Yes!"
Dai Zheng performed a series of operations on the panel. A small window opened on the warship, and a miniature drone quickly flew out.
Flying forward 5 meters, 10 meters, 20 meters... When it reached the turning point, the drone suddenly disappeared.
At the same time, a small green dot appeared near the Chang'an urban area.
It seemed that the drone was also teleported back.
But there was nothing in front. How did the drone suddenly go back?
"Have any abnormal fluctuations been detected?" Dongfang Chen asked.
"No!" Dai Zheng shook his head.
"Strange, really strange!" Dongfang Chen couldn't figure it out.
"Don't act rashly for the time being. Wait for my order!" Dongfang Chen ordered.
"Yes!" Dai Zheng accepted the order.
Dongfang Chen nodded and turned to leave.
He planned to make some thin threads and hang them on the drone to observe what was happening here.
To make thin threads, a queen bee needs to be dropped to the ground.
The queen bee can only obtain raw materials from the soil to produce after it is dropped.
Even if it is only producing some filaments, a small 5-meter square production cabin needs to be built. By the time the production is completed, it will be early the next morning.
These filaments have similar characteristics to spider silk, but the diameter is thicker and the weight is slightly heavier.
Making it thicker is also for easy observation.
Soon, a drone fixed with thin threads was released.
Unsurprisingly, this drone also suddenly disappeared after reaching the turning point and went to Chang'an City.
"This is really seeing a ghost!" Dai Zheng punched hard.
The thin thread did not break, but suddenly disappeared at the turning point.
The thread reel in the warship was still turning non-stop.
The other end was still firmly pulled by the aircraft.
This scene was extremely strange. The thin thread seemed to penetrate space. This is very similar to when sewing clothes, the embroidery needle pulls the thread through the plane of the fabric to reach another plane.
"Xiaolin, is there any content similar to space folding in the space station's database?" Dongfang Chen asked.
"Sorry, Commander, no search results found," Xiaolin replied.
It was mentioned earlier that the information in the space station gathers the highest technological achievements of the Nata civilization, but it is not omniscient and omnipotent.
It seems that I still have to rely on myself.
"Dai Zheng, send all the drones out, and fly to different places respectively. Track their flight trajectories at any time, and record all the turning points," Dongfang Chen ordered.
"Yes!"
Five warships, each with 5,000 miniature drone robots.
After receiving the order, they swarmed out of the warship and flew in all directions.
All the special forces members on the warship quietly watched the screen, waiting for the final result.
Their current position is at the northernmost end, so the drones flying north disappeared first, followed by northeast and northwest, and so on.
The drones flying south flew the farthest, having already passed Chang'an City.
Three hours later, all the drones returned.
It turned out that no matter which direction they flew, the drones would eventually be turned back to a fixed appearance point in the west of Chang'an and deep in Mount Li.
All the turning points connected together are a standard circle with the appearance point deep in Mount Li as the center and a radius of 400 kilometers.
"We're going here," Dongfang Chen said, pointing to the appearance point drawn on the screen.
"Yes!"
They don't need to fly back. As long as they fly a little further forward, they will be automatically teleported back to the appearance point.
The drones need half an hour to recharge.
Half an hour later, Dongfang Chen sent them out again to explore the way.
This time they were flying towards high altitude.
Since the drones traveled a shorter distance this time from the appearance point, it only took 1.5 hours for all of them to return.
