Interstellar Super Empire

Chapter 100

"...The power zone is out of control, the power zone is out of control..." The voice of the announcement has become very sharp, as if urging the passengers to escape as soon as possible.

Death is getting closer.

"Go and open the hatch, I'll hold him back." Zhang Xiao made a decisive decision, put his hand on Zhong Yun's waist, and pushed him to the "rescue cabin" with all his strength.Under the counterforce, I rushed towards that person.

Zhong Yun was stunned for a moment, he had already arrived at the door of the rescue cabin, he shook his head, since it was not the time to desert, he quickly pulled the password input button and entered the password to open the cabin.

Thanks to his strong memory, when boarding the plane, the staff member only said the eight-digit cabin opening password once on a mission, but did not forget it at the critical moment.

With a "beep", the hatch slowly opened, revealing the egg-shaped rescue capsule inside.

There was a loud bang, and at the same time there was a violent shock, and the entire spaceship seemed to turn over.Under the violent vibration, the three people in front of the rescue cabin couldn't control their bodies, and they all hit the metal wall, and they were all dizzy.

After the shock finally ended, Zhong Yun was the first to wake up, and immediately looked at the only hope of survival, the rescue capsule.

Fortunately, the rescue capsule stayed on the launch chute and did not fall out.

"...explosion in the power room, severe trauma to the spacecraft, will disintegrate in 10 minutes, repeat..."

silence.

Zhong Yun's face changed drastically, and he immediately looked at that person.The man trembled all over, and his eyes revealed desperate fear.Suddenly, that distorted face became ferocious, and the eyes looking at Zhong Yun were filled with infinite killing intent.

Zhong Yun narrowed his eyes, he knew that if he didn't get rid of this person, he would never let himself go to the rescue cabin.And be quick, if someone else finds it, it will be tricky.

Zhang Xiao also understood this truth. He and Zhong Yun looked at each other, stretched out their feet and kicked the wall, and flew towards that person.On his hand, a milky white air mass had already formed.

However, those who can board this spaceship are not idle people. At the critical moment of life and death, people can often burst out with more powerful strength than usual.Although that person was younger, Zhang Xiao definitely couldn't solve it with one or two strokes.

Taking advantage of Zhang Xiao's opportunity to entangle him, Zhong Yun opened the door of the rescue cabin and climbed up, "Zhang Xiao, hurry up." While shouting, he took out something and threw it at the person.

Zhang Xiao and Zhong Yun had been training together for two months, and they had a tacit understanding. With their feet on the wall, they flew towards the rescue cabin like a cannonball.

Suddenly, Zhang Xiao felt his figure slow down, and a hand grabbed his foot like an iron hoop. At the same time, there was a painful groan.

That hand didn't pull Zhang Xiao's body to a stop, but instead flew that person towards the rescue cabin.

Zhang Xiao turned his head and saw an extremely ferocious face with blood in his eyes. On his right chest, there was a metal block the size of half a fist embedded in it, and a small part was exposed. Zhang Xiao recognized it. That metal block is the communicator that was sent when I got on the plane.

The man suffered such severe injuries, he kept coughing up blood from his mouth, and the blood foam he spit out floated in the air, and then stained his face and clothes.

In those eyes, in addition to the despair that makes people hopeless for survival, there is also the madness to risk everything.Zhang Xiao only felt his scalp go numb, and a cold air shot up from his back to the top of his head.

In an instant, he understood the content in those eyes: I can't live, and neither can you.

In order to hold him, the man did not hesitate to have his lungs pierced.With no hope of survival, he chose to die together.

A person with the will to die is extremely difficult to deal with, and besides, this person's strength is almost the same as his.

Zhang Xiao's body stopped in front of the rescue cabin, half an arm's distance away, his blood congealed instantly, his fingers bent as if he was about to grab something.

A burst of noisy voices came from the passage, and at the corner, a figure appeared and rushed towards the rescue cabin.Behind him, followed by a large group of people who had become like beasts in order to survive.They tugged at each other, fearing that others would take the lead and take away the chance of survival.

Still here.

Zhang Xiao's heart sank to the bottom. His hand was only half a meter away from the door of the rescue cabin. This distance could usually be reached with a single touch, but at this moment, it was the distance between life and death.

It's only half a meter, just 50 centimeters more and I can survive.

Strong unwillingness and despair surged in Zhang Xiao's heart. Could it be that I am going to die here?

Will he give me a hand?Zhang Xiao couldn't help looking at the cabin door hopefully, as long as he stretched out his hand and pulled himself...

Impossible, put yourself in the shoes, if you were Zhong Yun, you would never give yourself a hand.Because, there is still a person dragging on his feet.If you give him a hand, you have to deal with the person behind him. If you want to calm down, the two of you can join forces and kill that person within ten seconds.

But do they have ten seconds left at this point?Not for a second.

Ten meters away, there is a group of red-eyed survivors who are like wolves and tigers.As long as they stay for a while, they will pounce on them, and when the time comes, they will be unable to leave even if they want to.

How insignificant human nature is in the face of death.

Zhang Xiao was already in despair, he turned his head quickly, and looked at the person who was hugging his feet tightly and taking away his hope of survival, a crazy smile appeared on his face at this moment.There was a strong sneer in his eyes.

See, I can't live, and neither can you.

Before I die, I will make you regret living in this world.

Zhang Xiao roared in his heart, looking at this person who stripped him of his vitality, he felt a monstrous hatred.It is bound to make this life worse than death.

Suddenly, a strong hand grabbed Zhang Xiao's wrist, he looked forward in disbelief, and Zhong Yun's face appeared in front of his eyes.

That unremarkable, ordinary face that makes people forget at first sight, at this moment, is actually shining with dazzling brilliance.

this fool.

Zhang Xiao only felt that his throat was blocked by something, and he used all his strength to shake Zhong Yun's hand.Then, he turned his head, stretched out the foot that was not hugged, and kicked hard on the blood-stained face.

There was a muffled "click", and Zhang Xiao's sense of touch on his feet told Zhang Xiao that the man's nose had been kicked and collapsed.However, his hands did not relax at all.

He lifted his foot and kicked it down again. During the lift, he saw the shapeless face with a mocking expression, as if laughing at his dying struggle.

"Hold on firmly." Zhong Yun's calm voice rang in his ears, Zhang Xiao had already been pulled to the hatch, he put down his foot, and quickly pulled the hatch, exhausting all his strength.

After pulling the rescue capsule, the hope of survival rose again in his heart.

No, not yet.

He turned his head and saw that among the group of people, the front one was only seven meters away from the rescue cabin.He and Zhong Yun are still in danger.Life and death are still only a thin line.

It’s over!Could it be that Zhong Yun and I are going to be buried in this place?Damn it, if it weren't for me, Zhong Yun wouldn't... He raised his head and looked at Zhong Yun. In addition to apologizing, there was also the excitement of life and death in his heart.

In this world, how many people can be found who are willing to give up their lives to save themselves?

At this moment, Zhang Xiao felt that even if he died here today, it would not be in vain.

There was no expression on Zhong Yun's face, and a purple light flashed across his body.He raised his fist.

This is……

In Zhang Xiao's mind, the scene of the bald instructor's huge body flying up appeared.Zhong Yun's stunning blow not only touched the hearts of all the instructors, but also touched the hearts of all the students present.

Suddenly, the air in the passage gathered towards Zhong Yun.The wind blew everyone's clothes rattling.

However, except for Zhang Xiao, no one cared about the strange wind. They all found with ecstasy that because of the wind, their speed of "swimming" to the rescue cabin accelerated.

"break"

An angry shout made everyone's eardrums buzz. Zhang Xiao had been prepared for a long time and opened his mouth wide. Even so, he was still dizzy from the shock.

At the same time as the sound sounded, an incomparably fierce air mass blew past Zhang Xiao's back, and the strong wind brought by it almost made him lose his hand holding the hatch.

With a sound of "click", Zhang Xiao felt his foot drop, and then his foot became hot.He didn't look back, he could imagine his end from what happened to the bald instructor.

Losing his burden, Zhang Xiao climbed into the rescue cabin. On his feet, there was a shocking pool of blood, which was still hot.

The group of people who were chasing up were staggered by the horizontal tornado with a strong smell of blood, and then they watched in despair as the hatch of the rescue cabin slowly closed.

Inside the life-saving cabin, Zhong Yun's hand pulled the trigger, and Zhang Xiao couldn't bear it. After the life-saving cabin was activated, the launch door must be opened. As long as the door is opened, the dozen or so people behind will have no way out.

There was no expression on Zhong Yun's face, but Zhang Xiao could see Zhong Yun's unbearable heart from his slightly trembling hands.

"I can't die."

Zhong Yun murmured, veins appeared in his hands, and he was about to pull the start button.A hand stretched out and folded over his.

"We can't die." A smile appeared on Zhang Xiao's face, "No matter what, we will bear it together. Even if it is a murderer."

The starter handle is pulled down, by both hands together.

In the sound of the "ring bell" alarm, the launch door opened, and a strong suction force sucked all the people in the aisle into the cosmic space, completely turning them into dust in the cosmic space.

During the countdown, Zhong Yun closed his eyes.

survived.

At the end of the countdown, the rescue capsule ejected and flew into the vast and boundless universe.Zhang Xiao looked behind him, and through the transparent hatch, the huge giant-like spaceship at the back was already suspended, and a huge gap was opened in the spaceship, and it was about to fail.

Pressing the outer protective cover, Zhang Xiaoyi turned his head without hesitation.What should be worried at this time is how to get rescue before the energy is exhausted.

The two did not speak for a long time.In order to persist for a longer period of time, except for the necessary functions, they turned off all other devices that could be turned off.

This rescue capsule is made according to the standards of advanced civilizations. One person can last in the universe for a year, and Zhong Yun and Zhang Xiao can last for seven or eight months if they save money.

It seems that seven or eight months seems to be a long time, but in the whole universe, seven or eight months is just a short moment, and there is little hope of encountering passing spaceships in such a short period of time.

But Zhong Yun is not worried at all, if there is no accident, Xiao Ling will drive the "Mars" over in a few days.With the powerful detector of "Mars", it is not difficult to capture the distress signal sent by the rescue cabin.This distress signal contained the secret signal agreed upon by Zhong Yun and Xiao Ling.

However, fate always likes to play tricks on people, especially in this universe where anything can happen.

After floating in space for a day, the two of them were woken up by a sharp siren. This familiar siren made them feel like frightened birds, and they trembled when they heard it.

"Attention, 300 billion kilometers ahead, a star has abnormal activity. It is predicted that a stellar storm with an intensity of level [-] will occur. Please avoid it. Repeat it again..."

The two were scared out of their wits, a stellar storm with a level three intensity? "Blowing" over will immediately make their bones disappear.

"Adjust the speed to the fastest and escape the influence of the stellar storm." Zhong Yun did not hesitate to turn on the power of the rescue capsule to the maximum.

The rescue capsule flew in one direction at the fastest speed, and it was only at this time that the strength of the rescue capsule was reflected. In less than half an hour, the speed reached sub-light speed.It's just a rescue pod.

It took a whole day to fly out of the influence of the stellar storm. Zhong Yun and the two just breathed a sigh of relief and checked the status of the spacecraft as usual.

The detector is broken.That is, they can no longer detect the direction in advance.They will be like a headless fly, bumping into the universe.

Losing direction in the endless universe is no different from being sentenced to death.

Could it be that I will really die here?
At this moment, Zhong Yun's heart was slightly shaken.

After a day of flying at the maximum speed, the remaining energy of the rescue capsule can still maintain four months of operation.

Will they be rescued during these four months?Both of them felt unsure.

Losing the detector, it was a difficult choice before the two of them.

Whether it is a spaceship that stays where it is waiting to pass by, or is it flying in the vast universe, see if you can meet it.

Both of them were silent, and the invisible pressure almost made them breathless.Facing the threat of death and such a slim chance of survival, neither of them could be calm.

After a long time, Zhong Yun lay down. There was about ten cubic meters of space in the entire rescue cabin, and he could move his hands and feet when he was tired.

"It seems that I am doomed this time." Zhong Yun sighed faintly, "I didn't expect that I would die in this miserable place, which makes people a little unwilling."

Zhang Xiao also sighed, "Where is death is not death."

"That's different. The fox dies in the first place. Being able to die in your hometown is the best destination." Zhong Yun said.

"Fox? What is that?" Zhang Xiaoqi asked.

"A kind of animal that you haven't seen before." Zhong Yun explained casually. Of course, he would not say that the fox is a kind of animal from a beautiful blue planet that is not known how many light-years away.

There is his hometown.
