It took an entire day for all the warships to complete a full body scan as ordered, but they did not find anything.
This result made Lin Yu feel a little more at ease, but not completely at ease.
After all, before they captured the parasite, who knew if it had the special ability to avoid body scans?
They could not possibly cut everyone's body open to see if there were any parasites inside, could they?
In any case, Lin Yu put aside the parasite issue for now and focused all his energy on the strange area in front of the fleet.
However, even on the last day of the plan, there was still no breakthrough until …
"Commander, we have a situation!"
Just as Lin Yu was about to announce that they had given up and move on with the parasite capture plan, the radar team leader's voice suddenly rang out in the bridge.
While reporting, he operated to open an observed image and projected it into the bridge.
The void that was originally empty suddenly cracked open, and then hundreds of King Zerg flew out from it.
These King Zerg ranged from Rank 1 to Rank 5. Although most of them were Rank 4 or Rank 5 King Zerg, there were as many as three Rank 1 King Zerg.
However, this was not the end. As the King Zerg appeared, a large number of Zerg swarms began to appear. There were no low-level combat Zerg, all of them were high-level Zerg Guards!
After a full hour, when the void was filled with more than 50 Zerg Guards of various ranks, the strange crack gradually closed until it finally disappeared completely …
"I know what's going on in this area!"
Suddenly, Lei Li, the team leader of the expert team, shouted excitedly.
"Lei Li, did you find something?"
"Yes, I know what's going on in the area in front of us!"
Lei Li nodded, his face was still full of excitement. As a scientist, what could be more exciting than suddenly finding a breakthrough in something that they had been researching for a long time?
"It's like this. Previously, we detected that this area has a 37.29% similarity with the report in the database, right?"
"For the past few days, I haven't understood. If the area in front of us is a time bubble, why can't we see anything in it?"
"You should know that the time bubble won't hide anything trapped in it. However, based on all the data, I'm very sure that the area ahead is covered by the time bubble. This is somewhat contradictory!"
"However, just now, when the Zergs opened up that strange tunnel, we conducted a comprehensive investigation of the crack. The data obtained from the investigation finally let me know where all the contradictions were!"
Lei Li was very excited as he danced with joy!
"Get to the point!"
Lin Yu, who had known Lei Li for decades, frowned.
He knew that if he did not stop Lei Li from continuing, this guy could talk for a few days and nights from a technical point of view without reaching a final conclusion.
Hence, Lin Yu mercilessly interrupted Lei Li who was in the midst of his excitement.
"Uh, alright!"
"This is a small universe, and it's a small universe where the flow of time is different from the great universe!"
Little universe?
Lin Yu was a little surprised.
Of course, Lin Yu was not surprised that there was such a thing as a small universe in this world. After all, the Federation had long proven the existence of small universes, and there had always been related research in progress.
Lin Yu was surprised that the Zergs had a small universe, and they were using this small universe with a different flow of time to continuously strengthen themselves!
"Are you sure that this is a small universe?"
"Of course, more than ten years ago, the Federation's strategic scientist, Academician Li Lizi, had already proven the existence of small universes and published many papers. I've read all the papers related to small universes!"
"According to the newly detected data, I'm very sure that this is a small universe!"
"Combined with the data in the time bubble report, to a large extent, I can confirm that this is a small universe where the flow of time is different from the great universe!"
"Of course, at present, I can't determine whether the difference in the flow of time in this small universe is man-made or natural. Similarly, I can't determine whether the difference in time is a contraction effect or an expansion effect, or what the speed of the time effect is!"
Alright, Lin Yu understood.
However, he was still frowning.
After all, just knowing this was not enough. He needed more information before he could make a decision.
If he wanted to obtain more information, there seemed to be only one way, and that was …
"Can we enter this small universe?"
"Yes!"
"There's a way?"
Hearing Lei Li's confirmation, Lin Yu was a little excited. Perhaps … he could really take care of both sides?
"Actually, it's very simple to enter. According to Academician Li Lizi's research and her published papers, once the small universe and the great universe build a bridge, ah, a channel, this channel must be bidirectional, unlike the space channel which is unidirectional."
"In other words, we just have to wait until the next time the Zergs open the channel, and we can directly sneak in!"
That simple?
Lin Yu was a little speechless.
This meant that as long as he waited, he could secretly sneak in and obtain information about this small universe?
However, the method was very simple, but the problem was that he did not have the time!
If, no, it should be said that the Zergs opened the channel regularly to send a new batch of Zergs to the great universe, how long would the interval be?
Lin Yu quickly came up with a vague answer. It was no less than seven days!
After all, his fleet had been spying here for seven whole days, and this was the first time they saw a Zerg come out.
Furthermore, it was no less than seven days!
Alright, eight days was no less than seven days, eight years was no less than seven days, and even eight hundred years was no less than seven days.
This was a little tricky!
"Is there no other way to enter?"
"There is!"
"Really?"
Lin Yu asked again with the intention of trying. He did not have much hope.
However, Lei Li's answer surprised him!
"There must be another way. Otherwise, how did the Zergs open the channel?"
"However, our understanding of the small universe is still very shallow. Currently, we still …"
"That means there's no other way now?"
The corner of Lin Yu's mouth twitched a few times. He interrupted Lei Li's words and said snappily.
"Uh, currently there's no other way, but as our research deepens, we will definitely be able to …"
"Stop, you can go and rest …"
