This was the Hope's first month in space. Other than encountering a few groups of star beasts, the Hope hadn't encountered anything else.
In this one month's time, Lv Zi was diligently cultivating every day, and Qin Chuan was holding the book Ximen Weiyang had given him and was studying the information about the outside world. Most of the things recorded in the book were the guesses of Ximen Weiyang and others about the outside world. There were very few things that were truly useful, but Qin Chuan was still reading with great interest.
"So it wasn't someone who invented a new language during the Age of Chaos for the human and demon race to use. This language has always existed!"
Qin Chuan looked at the records in the book and couldn't help but reveal an extremely shocked expression. He didn't expect there to be such a secret regarding language.
"If the writing and language of the human race and the demon race are the same, doesn't that mean that the human race and the demon race have already achieved the same writing and writing many years ago?
Perhaps not only the human and demon race, but also the entire universe … "
"The origin of the name 'Banished Land' is quite unique. According to legends, the Banished Land is a place used to banish races that have committed serious crimes. Could it be that the human and demon race used to live in the outside world and were banished here because they committed serious crimes?"
Reading through the book's records and speculations, Qinchuan's confusion grew. At the same time, his curiosity about the outside world grew.
Just as Qinchuan was thinking about these things, the Hope suddenly trembled slightly. However, it soon became more intense, like an earthquake!
Sensing the Hope's abnormal reaction, Qinchuan immediately stood up. At the same time, Bai Yuu's figure appeared before him. She said in a serious tone, "A whirlpool suddenly appeared at the bottom of the Hope. This whirlpool's suction force is very strong. The Hope is having a hard time moving!"
Qinchuan's face flashed with shock. He asked, "The Hope can't escape from this whirlpool?"
Just as Qinchuan asked this question, Lü Zi, who was cultivating in the cabin, walked out and asked in confusion, "What happened?"
Bai Yuu briefly explained the situation to Lü Zi before turning to Qinchuan. "I've tried, but the Hope is unable to escape from this whirlpool. Furthermore, as the whirlpool grows bigger and bigger, there's a high chance we'll be sucked into it!"
Lü Zi frowned slightly and asked, "What's behind the whirlpool?"
"I don't know." Bai Yuu shook her head. "This is the first time we've entered the depths of the universe. I'm not sure either."
Hearing Bai Yuu's answer, Lü Zi knew she had asked a stupid question. She looked at Bai Yuu and asked, "Can you put the Hope away?
After all, the Hope is too big. It would be bad if the Hope was damaged. "
Bai Yuu shook her head. "If this was before we encountered this whirlpool, I might have been able to do that, but now I can't. This whirlpool is restricting me."
Qin Chuan and Lv Zi's expressions became somewhat gloomy. They had only been in the universe for a month, and they had already encountered such a situation. It was too vexing.
"None of us know what's behind this whirlpool, so I suggest the two of you leave the Hope temporarily. If there's no danger behind the whirlpool, I'll try to contact you."
Bai Yuu looked at Qinchuan and Lü Zi. "The Hope will be trapped, but there's still a chance for the two of you to leave."
Hearing Bai Yuu's words, Qin Chuan rejected Bai Yuu's suggestion without even thinking. He shook his head and said, "No, let's not talk about abandoning our companions. If you can't get out of the vortex, Lv Zi and I can only survive in the universe for three to five days at most. There are too many uncertainties and too much danger. Our best choice now is to face this vortex together. No matter what is behind the vortex, we have to face it!"
Hearing Qinchuan's words, Lü Zi and Bai Yuu fell silent. Behind the whirlpool might be another world or death, but no matter what, they couldn't escape from it!
As the whirlpool grew bigger and bigger, the Hope was finally swallowed whole. When the Hope entered the whirlpool, it only lasted for a few seconds before disappearing. It was as if nothing had happened.
…
Hum.
Qinchuan felt his head grow heavy. It felt like he was traveling through time and space. His soul and body seemed to be separated, and the connection between them was lost.
Just as Qin Chuan was trying his best to wake himself up and regain his composure, an ear-piercing laughter suddenly rang out in his ears.
"He's awake!
Hahaha, I bet this kid will be the first to wake up!
I've won! "
"Motherf * cker, I'm so unlucky!"
"Stop talking nonsense, hand over the money, hand over all your star coins!"
Amidst the loud laughter, Qin Chuan slowly opened his eyes and looked in front of him. In front of him, there was a black furry thing that was swaying non-stop. Before Qin Chuan could see what it was, a ferocious face covered in fur suddenly appeared in front of him. It looked like a cat!
"Kid, don't you know it's rude to stare at other people's buttocks?"
Qin Chuan looked at the figure in front of him and felt the aura that was as vast as the ocean coming from him. He couldn't help but reveal a trace of shock on his face!
Qinchuan was sure that if this person wanted to kill him, it would only need a finger to crush him to death!
"What are you looking at?
Kid! "
Hearing the other party's joking voice, Qinchuan suddenly realized that he could understand the other party's language. However, that wasn't the most important thing right now. He needed to know the situation of Bai Yuu and Lü Zi!
"Where are my companions?"
"If you're referring to the girl and the ship, then they're over there."
The black cat pointed a finger with a sharp nail at Qinchuan's side. Qinchuan turned to look at the unconscious Lü Zi and the Hope. He couldn't help but sigh in relief. Everyone was fine.
"Kid, what race are you?"
The black cat reached out and pinched Qin Chuan's face. "You look like a human from the legends, but your bloodline doesn't seem to belong to the human race. How strange. Could it be that you're just a humanoid?"
Qin Chuan did not quite understand what the black cat was saying, but he could roughly tell that the black cat had no intention of killing him for the time being. He turned his gaze towards the strange faces around him, and felt the astonishing energy fluctuations coming from these people. Pursing his lips, he asked, "Where is this place?"
The black cat laughed wickedly and said to Qinchuan, "Friend, this is the Red Sail pirate ship. Welcome!"
