Chapter 1214: Chapter 1078-1079: Another Mistake – Investigation (Two-in-One)

Bentley directly said, "I don’t feel it, but that’s not the point. The key is why the space fluctuates?"

"I don’t know either," Qinghu shrugged his hands and replied frankly, "The mysteries of the universe, who can say for sure?"

Qu Jianlei spoke up in time, "I believe this. Old Ben, don’t say any more."

Bentley has always been convinced by his words, but this time he couldn’t help but be serious, "But why does it fluctuate?"

"Because there will be changes," Nutrient Injection spoke up, stating earnestly, "This might be an opportunity."

"I don’t agree with this!" Rarely, the Paranoid got serious, "You’re saying there will be a treasure near Qingyuan Star?"

Nutrient Injection shrugged, "Not necessarily a treasure, it might be a disaster. Who can say for sure?"

This statement aligns with everyone’s understanding of the sudden space fluctuation.

Qu Jianlei decisively made the decision, "Alright, this issue... we need to prioritize understanding it."

"Even if not for treasure or disaster, just to understand the stability of near-Earth teleportation, a thorough investigation is necessary."

Alright, we won’t pretend anymore, we have indeed mastered the secret of near-Earth teleportation.

Nutrient Injection’s lips curled into a smile, "Looks like I won’t need to enter the lifeboat again when leaving the planet in the future."

In the following days, Qinghu and Bentley rested peacefully in the feudal territory.

This teleportation mishap did have negligible impact on Qinghu—Supreme’s body was indeed solid enough.

Bentley was not so fortunate; although he was clad in armor during teleportation, he still suffered multiple scratches, and even some internal organ displacement.

At least a rest of ten to eighteen days is required for recovery to normalcy, a full recovery might take around twenty days.

During their recuperation, Qu Jianlei controlled the Little Lake to explore news about space fluctuation.

However, regrettably, there was no related information on the internet.

The Omen Ship deep in space also received the news, released many miniature detectors, yet still failed to observe.

But this issue cannot be left unresolved. On the fifth day of Qinghu’s return, Qu Jianlei planned to investigate.

Upon hearing this, others also expressed their intention to go—everyone genuinely cared.

However, someone must remain in the feudal territory, after discussion, the group decided to leave Qinghu, Bentley, Celestial Sound, and Claire behind.

The former two needed rest, while the latter two were B-level, in case of space anomalies, defense capability is too poor.

This time, for the journey there, they definitely could not use teleportation anymore, but had to borrow a small business starship from the steward.

The steward trusted these tenants a lot—after all, they earned back so much face for the house, borrowing a starship wasn’t an issue.

He didn’t ask what the tenants intended to do but still advised best to send two employees on the ship, in case of an inspection it would be easier to deal with.

Nutrient Injection straightforwardly refused, "If we encounter trouble, we’ll contact you."

That night, the small business starship quietly took off, heading towards the depths of space.

However, even at night, various observation equipment on Qingyuan Star continues to operate normally.

Very quickly, someone noticed, "In the Gustine’s feudal territory, a business starship took off."

Within the noble’s feudal territory, most starship takeoffs require no reporting, but there are corresponding management regulations.

Like this business starship, it is registered and documented on Qingyuan Star, belonging to the Gustine Clan’s advanced tool ship.

With this starship coming forth, like the last time of accommodating four large transport starships for landing, the government can directly ignore.

Of course, the government can remain indifferent to the tool ship itself entering and exiting the planet.

However, even so, corresponding entry and exit records must exist, this is beyond doubt.

Very soon, related records were automatically entered into the database.

Qu Jianlei and others piloted the starship to a distance of two million kilometers beyond Qingyuan Star, beginning starship modification.

First, the control system of the starship needs replacing.

This is easy; just add an Anti-Smuggling Terminal.

Though its computing power isn’t particularly strong, for controlling such a small starship, it’s sufficient.

To operate better, Qu Jianlei took out two Anti-Smuggling Terminals and connected them together.

The others were already used to his operations, even Nutrient Injection showed no curiosity.

After replacing the control system, he took out more than ten gun-type probes.

These are his labor results from recent days, designed specifically to explore space fluctuations.

The Imperial government has specialized equipment for detecting space fluctuations, but those are relatively larger and more strictly controlled.

Qu Jianlei’s homemade Scanner is no less effective than specialized equipment—even slightly superior.

However, from the appearance, it’s somewhat unsophisticated, feels like it’s crudely made.

However, when crafting devices by hand, expectations shouldn’t be too high, function is all that matters.

Qu Jianlei didn’t rush to install, waiting until the starship flew beyond three million kilometers from Qingyuan before starting work.

Near the habitable star over two million kilometers, starships often linger, the official actively monitors.

Qu Jianlei’s gun-type probes seem inconspicuous, but... why bother drawing attention? 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ

After simple modifications, more than ten gun-type probes extended through weapon holes and locations, reaching outside the starship.

Though many probes were added, extending outside the starship isn’t long, barely noticeable unless closely examined.

However, once active exploration begins, the energy demand from the gun-type probes becomes significant.
