664 Spacecraft
Somewhere in the vast space--
*Vroom*
A huge metallic beast in the shape of a snake, opening its mouth wide and exposing its sharp fangs, passed at high speed, interrupting the deadly silence of space
No, it is not a beast. There is no living creature that can survive in the harsh conditions of space in which the planets swim. That thing was definitely a spacecraft!
The ship was a kilometer long and at least 100 meters wide at the very least. Although sound does not spread in space, one can imagine how loud this machine was just by looking at the amount of energy that comes out of its massive tail to push it forward.
In fact, *space* is not completely empty, but rather it is full of asteroids that can threaten anything that moves, asteroids that range in size from a tiny rock to nearly the size of the moons! However, this vehicle did not slow down or take those asteroids into consideration, it would rip anything that came in its way open with its sharp fangs.
The massive size of the spacecraft, its incredible speed, its destructive power, as well as its terrifying appearance... all of these things are more than enough to make anyone tremble in fear when they see it.
"Damn it, I'm tired of this nonsense!!" A large man inside the ship stood up and hit his head on the metal wall
Or was it not really a man? That thing was at least four meters tall and had gray scales covering various areas of its body, forming several incomprehensible patterns. Its eyes were as sharp as those of snakes, and when he spoke his tongue appeared to be split in two, he also had a thick tail!
"Hehe, you are the one who chose to be at the vanguard, Ohun, you have to endure." Another person nearby, who was sitting on a chair and drinking a cup, laughed and shook his head
That person did not have the same specifications as the giant called Ohon. His height was about 170 cm as a normal human, and his skin color was also normal and didn't have this obvious greyness. He had no slit in his tongue and no tail either. The only thing that separated him from humans outwardly was his snake-like eyes.
"Damn you, Bendal! I chose the vanguard so that I could be at the front of the army and fight the new worlds alone before support arrived, not to wander in space for years in vain!!" The giant called Ohon shouted
"This is part of the job, buddy~" Bendal shrugged his shoulders, closing his eyes and raising his head facing the ceiling, "In order for us to find an inhabited planet and have the opportunity to attack it first and collect the first batch of spoils, we must first find that planet. You have been with us for 7 long years, but you're bored already? We could spend a hundred years without finding a single one!"
Then he looked at Ohon with pity, "It is true that there are many inhabited planets, but the universe is massive... We are now, for example, moving forward in a straight line, but that does not mean that everything behind us has been explored. Do not forget that there are also directions above us, below us, to our right, and to our left, and every direction is open almost to infinity!"

Then he looked at Ohon with pity, "It is true that there are many inhabited planets, but the universe is massive... We are now, for example, moving forward in a straight line, but that does not mean that everything behind us has been explored. Do not forget that there are also directions above us, below us, to our right, and to our left, and every direction is open almost to infinity!"
"~Hiisss~ That's right, and don't forget that just as out of every thousand planets you will find only one that supports life, most planets are not a safe distance from the stars or do not have water." Another person in the room nodded slowly, "Trying to find a planet that supports life and is close to the support centers is simply more difficult than searching for a needle at the bottom of the sea."
"If finding planets with spacecraft was easy, we would not have been able to find only 9 planets during the 10,000 years of our great empire, and 5 of these planets we have not yet been able to completely subjugate!" A different person spoke. They all shared the eyes of snakes but differed in the rest of their physical characteristics. Some were very close to humans, while others looked like semi-reptilians.
"What does this mean? Am I going to spend my whole life wandering through fucking space with you?!" The person called Ohon smashed the chair next to him, shattering it. His aura at this moment suggested that he was a mid-level Emperor.
Then he quickly looked at another person in the command room. That person was standing with his hands folded in front of his chest and looking out the spacecraft glass window with a frowned forehead, well he had no eyebrows. His body was moderate, about 220 feet tall, and he also had a thick tail.
"Captain Seagal, give the order." Let us get out of this circle of research. If we search freely, we may come up with better results!"
"..." The ship captain's facial expressions did not change, as if he had not heard anything
"Haha, you want us to move away from the support point, you idiot?" Bendal laughed out loud, "What if we lose our way and can't come back? What if our bad luck lands us on a planet under the rule of another Planetary Empire and we had to fight alone? Think about what you say before you open your mouth!"
"So what if we find another planetary empire? We'll just crush them!! Is the Great Serpent Empire afraid of anyone? This wouldn't be the first time we've destroyed a planetary empire anyway." Ohun hit his chest hard.
"Sigh~ Guys, this guy is hopeless. Why did the specialists appoint him to our elite team and not throw him into one of the regular Vanguard ships? Remind me to write an official protest when we get back!" Bendal shook his head, "Tsk~ Listen, you combat freak, it's true that we're not afraid of anyone in the Young planetary Belt, but know that all the planetary empires in the Young Belt have a strong supporter from the higher planetary belts, otherwise they wouldn't know anything about interplanetary travel, and we don't want to accidentally crush a powerful person's empire and cause problems for the Overlord, understand? The empire that we previously crushed belonged to one of the Overlord's enemies, and he was the one who gave us the green light to destroy it. Other than that, we must avoid problems for his and our sake."
"..." When Giant Ohon heard the word Overlord's, he swallowed everything he wanted to say again, and just kicked a chair and shouted, "Damn it!!"
"...There's something happening on the horizon." At this moment, a voice came from the front of the spacecraft, It was the Captain.
"Hmm?" Everyone present left their seats and rushed to the front glass window to stand next to their captain, "This..?"
At this moment, a giant vortex was forming in the vehicle's path. This vortex was huge at the edges, but narrow in the middle until its center was almost invisible.
"What kind of bad luck is this?" Captain Seagal gritted his teeth, "Change course quickly, that thing is probably a wormhole!!"
"W-- wormhole?!" When everyone heard this term, their colors changed. These two words had only been heard about in cosmic navigation books. According to their studies, if they fell into a wormhole, they would be transported to a random place in the universe. But this is a theory and has not been confirmed because no one has ever entered a wormhole and returned alive. Also, wormholes are unstable, as they appear and disappear quickly, so there is no time to study them!
"No, we're late!"
"Nooooo!!!!"
All ten officers took a few steps back in fear. The tape of their memories began to pass before their eyes as they felt the space around them shaking like a leaf caught in a storm.
Ohon tried to pierce through the spacecraft to jump into space to try his luck, but he was too late... The wormhole seemed to be targeting them, In a moment it formed, and the next moment it swallowed them.
*Awwmmmmmm*
-----------------
After an unknown period of time---
*Swoosh*
"AAHHH!!!"
"NOOOO---- no?"
Suddenly stability returned inside the spacecraft, and the commanders began to look at their limps and look around at their colleagues to see if they were okay, or if they were not dreaming at all.
"Did we just survive... a wormhole?"
"Hey, look out the window!!"
"This...?"
The spacecraft's crew continued to experience shocks, but this time it was not a very bad shock
They found in front of them a huge planet, tens of times larger than the normal size of the planets, It was also clear at first glance that it was an active planet containing life on its surface
The planet was dominated by blue color... And had a strong gravity pulling the spacecraft towards it.
