Chapter 56 - 17: I’m Really Too Tired
After a moment of disorientation, Lin Miao felt the gravity binding his body suddenly fade away, making his entire body feel light. He blinked and looked around, only to discover that he seemed to have arrived in another world.
No clouds, no blue sky, the entire sky of this world was made up of boundless black night and sparkling stars. In the endless universe, there was only the dazzling hot sun and a faint grayish-blue planet hanging overhead.
The ground beneath his feet was even more soft, made of dust, a casual step could create a deep footprint.
"This... is the surface of the moon?"
Lin Miao stared in a daze at the obvious footprints beneath him, feeling a sense of shock and an inexplicable excitement.
He seemed to understand somewhat the words of that great man from last century.
This is one small step for me, but one giant leap for mankind.
It was the first time humanity extended its reach beyond the cradle in the endless universe.
But unlike the desolate moon Armstrong saw, Lin Miao saw not only boundless moon dust and craters, but also human industrial bases and orbital ports. Buildings bore large ’Orbital Aviation’ trademarks, and there were numerous workers in heavy spacesuits laboring, along with soldiers holding rifles standing guard around them.
