"Could you tell me the difference between these spacecraft?"
After being stunned for a long time, Fang Er asked Bu Yun Bu Yu his most pressing question.
"Oh, brother, it seems you're a real rookie!"
Bu Yun Bu Yu chuckled, shook his head, but didn't answer him. Instead, he asked back, "Could you first tell me about your space ability?"
Space ability?
The moment Fang Er heard this term, he suddenly felt as if he were in a novel.
When he was taking out the wine earlier, he had already thought of how to explain it. However, Bu Yun Bu Yu's guess meant he no longer needed to use his original explanation.
"Are you talking about this?"
He waved his hand and placed another bottle of 'Men Dao Lu' on the table.
Bu Yun Bu Yu nodded, and the others present also looked over.
Space ability, the most mysterious ability in legends, was enough to arouse anyone's curiosity.
Fang Er smiled, "I don't know if this counts as a space ability."
"Before, when my two brothers and I were working in the mine, we were accidentally bitten by a poisonous insect, and then we gained this ability."
Bu Yun Bu Yu's eyes instantly lit up. "Brother, do you remember what kind of poisonous insect it was?"
"I'm sorry, that insect escaped after biting me, so I didn't get a clear look at its appearance."
Fang Er shook his head and then looked at him curiously, "Brother Bu, you just said I have a space ability. Are there other abilities too?"
Bu Yun Bu Yu sighed in disappointment. He hadn't seen its appearance clearly, and it had escaped! Where was he supposed to find that poisonous insect?
"As far as I know, on some planets, there are very few beings who, for some special reason, awaken abilities that ordinary people don't have."
"But this is just hearsay. The only one I've truly seen with my own eyes is a strongman."
"That was an Antarian. He could lift more than a thousand times his own weight!"
"Hiss..."
Fang Er couldn't help but gasp. Ten thousand times!
He didn't know how big the Antarians were, but even if they were only similar in size to humans, a strength of ten thousand times would allow him to lift over 200,000 catties of weight!
This is simply...
He was an existence even more monstrous than himself!
Bu Yun Bu Yu continued, "According to the strongman himself, he contracted a strange illness that couldn't be cured even after years of treatment. But suddenly, his illness was cured, and from then on, he awakened his super strength ability!"
"Such ability users are almost one in billions of living beings."
"Brother, you've had such a fortunate encounter, your future is boundless!"
His three eyes looked at Fang Er with envy and jealousy.
Finally, he answered Fang Er's earlier question.
Spore-class spacecraft were the lowest and most numerous of all spacecraft. They were driven by the energy released from the fission of Andromeda coins, with a maximum speed of 5 times the speed of sound.
These spacecraft were often sold as commercial vessels and were also widely equipped in the military as carrier-based aircraft or ground patrol vehicles.
The Eternal Storm-class spacecraft were large dual-purpose military and civilian vessels, also using Andromeda coins as an energy source. However, on this class of spacecraft, it was no longer fission but fusion that was used, with a maximum speed of one-thousandth of the speed of light, or 1 million kilometers per hour.
As for the Emperor-class interstellar motherships, they used antimatter technology. When flying, they collected cosmic ct antimatter and normal matter to annihilate and propel the spacecraft, approaching the speed of light to the maximum extent, but only approaching it.
Above the Emperor-class, there were also Star-class spacecraft, which Bu Yun Bu Yu had only heard of but had never seen!
Star-class spacecraft were equipped with quantum engines, allowing them to enter a quantum state during flight, propagating as waves until they encountered massive objects that attracted them back to normal state, achieving true light-speed flight. This was highly risky and had low feasibility.
However, due to their superior performance, Star-class and Emperor-class spacecraft were classified as controlled aircraft by the military and prohibited from being sold to the public.
After listening to his explanation, Fang Er couldn't help but gasp again.
According to this, the Lomor spacecraft he had encountered before were actually just spore-class spacecraft for ground patrol!
As for the spacecraft numbered 3838438 that he took to Ear Star, it was very likely an Eternal Storm-class vessel.
Damn it...
Under normal circumstances, since the Star-class was already in use, there must be something that surpassed Star-class spacecraft somewhere!
Perhaps it was technological reserves, or perhaps it was still in the experimental stage!
Regardless of which it was, it held immense temptation for Fang Er!
Kepler-425b was located in the constellation Cygnus, 1,400 light-years away from Earth.
He still had 190 years. As long as the spacecraft could reach 20 times the speed of light, he could travel from Earth to Kepler-452b and back before the main world collapsed.
As for whether he could bring the star core back, it all depended on having suitable transportation.
Moreover, he wasn't worried about living to be 190 years old at all. Having already interacted with extraterrestrial civilizations, these beings with technology superior to Earth's would surely possess life-extension technologies.
Furthermore, there was a dedicated project team at the Australian Research Institute working diligently on this.
As Fang Er was contemplating, he felt a pat on his shoulder.
He looked up and saw Bu Yun Bu Yu pointing out the window, "Brother, look, that's our mothership ahead! The Eternal Storm-class, the Jones, and it's our flagship!"
At some point, they had escaped the pursuit of the Ear Star guards and entered space.
A massive spacecraft was parked before them, visually larger than the 3838438 he had taken before.
Dozens of spore-class spacecraft were heading towards the Jones.
As they flew closer, mechanical arms extended from the Jones spacecraft and secured them to the hull.
The one Fang Er and his companions were on was no exception.
"Squeak... Kaka..."
The spore-class spacecraft made a series of mechanical grinding sounds, and then Fang Er saw a passage open up in what was originally a smooth hall-like ship wall.
"Come on, let me show you our mothership!"
Bu Yun Bu Yu casually grabbed Fang Er's arms and affectionately rubbed them.
Fang Er couldn't help but shiver, a layer of goosebumps rising all over his body. He quickly withdrew his hands.
"Hahahaha, you're too kind, Brother Bu. I can walk by myself."
