Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Chapter 1419 - 705: Isolated Space—Take Everything! (Part 2)

”No, this must be confirmed.” Xu Xin squeezed Li Wenxi’s hand and looked at Xu Ying.

”...” Xu Ying’s eyebrows were already furrowed, ”I understand what you mean. Right now... I can’t teleport outside the battleship.”

Her words made Xu Xin squint slightly.

Just as expected.

”Ah?” Li Wenxi exclaimed in a low voice, ”Yingying, is there a problem with your abilities?”

”No, it’s not that her abilities are the issue, but there’s a problem with this battleship.”

Xu Xin glanced at the few alien invaders that remained unmoved several meters away, and whispered the conversation he just overheard to the two women.

”This battleship can actually isolate space teleportation...” Xu Ying murmured.

”... Then we can’t just go out casually now...” Li Wenxi also tightened her grip on Xu Xin’s hand.

Facing such a situation inside the enemy’s battleship, it’s impossible not to feel fear.

Especially since they have the main mission outside to destroy the scarlet crystals.

They initially thought even if nothing is found here, Xu Ying could take them back at any time, which is why they came out to explore.

But now, they can’t leave!

If they can’t get out, what happens to the plan outside!

This is absolutely unacceptable.

The current situation is completely beyond Xu Xin and his team’s expectations.

”... Reasonable.” Xu Ying said softly after a few seconds of silence, ”This battleship definitely should have this capability.”

”The ability to isolate space, I thought so too.”

Li Wenxi gently nodded and said softly.

”I was wondering earlier, this battleship has been caught in a temporal and spatial vortex; does time and space only affect the exterior of the battleship and not the interior?”

”All three battleships were destroyed, and the exterior of this battleship has become so damaged, yet why are these alien invaders still alive inside? Isn’t the interior affected by time and space then?”

”However, it seems there is now a reasonable explanation.”

Li Wenxi glanced at the body of this battleship and said, ”The hull of this battleship can isolate space, turning its interior into an independent space. How... impressive.”

Xu Xin was also observing the surroundings: ”Perhaps only this battleship has this capability; the other three do not. That’s why only this battleship returned, while the other three were destroyed.”

Even the most powerful battleship needs pilots and staff.

Although the alien invaders have relatively advanced artificial intelligence, as seen from those little jellyfish, piloting a battleship through the universe is something that can’t be left to AI, at least not in crucial moments.

Therefore, if the interior was also affected by the temporal and spatial vortex, crashing would almost be inevitable.

This battleship being able to return intact is likely thanks to this capability.

”Yes, and this ability to isolate space also prevents someone from teleporting into the battleship’s interior.” Xu Ying said, ”The aliens’ space teleportation technology is very powerful, and without precautions, the battleship’s interior could be easily invaded.”

The transmission devices are the technology of the alien invaders.

And the Transmission Array emitting the purple-black light beams is as well.

The glowing white crystals dug up on Earth are meant to be transported back to their home planet using space-crossing teleportation.

The alien invaders’ teleportation technology is indeed very powerful.

Naturally, there would be criminals among the aliens who would use teleportation to do certain things.

Thinking about it now, taking precautions in this area is quite normal.

Yet, for us Earthlings, it’s much more unfamiliar, to the point we didn’t consider this before coming in.

It’s well-known, the World Tree actually also has the ability to disrupt space and prohibit teleportation.

But that doesn’t affect Xu Ying.

Unexpectedly, this battleship directly cuts off space and forms an independent time-space.

Just like... how the interior and exterior of their World Tree with different time-flow rates are.

”So, our biggest trump card has been stripped away.” Xu Xin sighed.

”You mean the card where encountering danger, I teleport you both away? Not exactly.”

Xu Ying pursed her lips.

”Although the space inside the battleship is isolated from the outside, it is also a very stable space. I can teleport freely within this space, provided I’ve been there or can see it.”

”Oh...” Xu Xin’s eyes brightened slightly, ”That’s good.”

Though temporarily unable to exit, at least their safety is somewhat assured.

They wouldn’t be doomed upon discovery.

He immediately felt a bit of relief.

”Then we should continue exploring within this battleship,” Li Wenxi suggested.

”The more we explore, the more places Yingying can teleport to, and the safer we are.”

That’s indeed the case.

But...

Xu Xin rubbed his eyes.

A bit... sleepy?

A bit tired.

What’s going on...

Is he not acclimated to the battleship?

The air here differs from the outside, hence making him sleepy?

No...

Could it be...?

He glanced at the little creature in his arms.

This little creature revealed half its face and one furry ear, sleeping soundly.

Wrapped in its tail, sleeping so sweetly, even a bubble forms from its nose.

”This little guy...” Xu Xin immediately felt exasperated.

At a critical time, it’s affecting him again!
