Chapter 106: Deep Space Adventure

Miles woke up the next day with a fresher mind. The trial itself wasnt painful, but only mind-numbing. Of course, he could sleep through it, but as his mother advised, benefiting from it was much more valuable, and so that was exactly what Miles did. He almost learned all the information his mother stored in his brain and then cross-checked them with the texts he found in the mysterious cave.

Miles looked around the room and noticed his eyesight was better than before. The items, colors, shapes he could see were more accurate, and his speed of thought was much faster. He could bring up any memory or information more easily and calculate faster as well. If he was a regular computer before, now he was a supercomputer with better hardware all over.

When Miles woke up, his mother was by his side. Unlike last time, she didnt leave but slept on the chair, her head at his bed. Miless heart ached when he saw his mother sleeping in such a posture to look after him, and woke her up slowly.

Hey, you woke up? Evelyn smiled as she woke up.

Yeah. Thanks, mom. Miles didnt apologize, she was his mother after all. But expressed his gratitude anyway. His mother helped him greatly this time. Not only did she stop working on her project, which was something major for Evelyn. She also helped him learn much essential information that couldn't be found without connections. Miles did have the connections, but he wasnt willing to use them to clear himself from the name of Cross.

Dont be silly. Of course, I will help you. Evelyn smiled brightly, and Miles felt like the room brightened up. Come to me again for the second serum.

Will do, mom. Miles nodded and asked, Can you test me again, I want to know if I have improved. Miles asked his mother to test him again, but he wanted his mother to give him more confidential information.

Of course, Evelyn saw through it too but ignored it. She prepared information that could last more than 10 minutes when she first tested Miles, and if he could do it, she would let him learn all of them. But since Miles lasted only two minutes, she would adjust them to be stored for the second test when Miles wanted to use the second serum.

But Miles was just like her, and had an insatiable desire for knowledge. Since it was so, Evelyn wouldnt be shy to share it with her son.

In the endless black, a ship made of the strongest alloy on Earth swam silently. They would use the rockets to travel, but something that happened the other day frightened them to even think about it.

When the ship was sailing silently, a giant mass appeared at the end of their sight. Neither alarm of the ship, nor radar showed anything approaching. The giant mass got bigger and bigger as it approached the ship. When it was not so far away from the ship anymore, its whole size couldnt be seen from the ship, but people in the ship could see what it was.

The worm-like, white thing had one eye and a giant maw. The eye itself was bigger than the ship, the whole size of the creature was colossal. It could wrap up a city with its length.

Stop the engines, now! Captain of the ship ordered. The ship stopped in endless space. The monster opened its giant maw, but no sound came. Maybe it didnt make any sound, maybe it was because the sound couldnt be heard in space. Monsters eye locked with the ship for a small window of time, but to those in the ship, it felt like a lifetime.

When the monster left their sight, all the crew felt their back was wet with sweat. These people werent weak at all. The weakest of them all was Form-Rank and fought with monsters hundreds of times, but the monster as big as a small city frightened them to their core.

But that wasnt all. All of a sudden a bright light filled the sky, and a path made of a rainbow light formed in the black space. The rainbow followed after the monster. Because of their speed, the things in the rainbow light didnt see the lone spaceship, but people in the spaceship saw that things inside the rainbows were space crafts, chasing the monster.

Ever since people in the spaceship were too afraid to run their engines. Thrusters silently worked to push the spaceship back to Earth, but the crew was too afraid to cause any big energy fluctuations to alarm the alien civilization that dared to chase after the monster.

After a few months, they saw the blue marble once again pinned in the sky. Engines ran fully, and the spaceship returned to Earth.
