Allen stood in front of the side porthole. At this moment, outside the porthole was the deep and dark universe. On the left, a huge nebula curled up. From a distance, it looked like cotton, a myriad of colors slowly spreading out. It was filled with boundless vitality and a myriad of phenomena. It added a lot of color to this monotonous space. The nebula seemed to be within reach, but in reality, Allen knew that it was very far away. How far is it? Even if they flew for half a month, they might not be able to reach it.
However, the location of this flying ship was completely different.
This place was lonely and desolate, as if they had arrived at the edge of the universe. It was a stark contrast to the flourishing atmosphere of this star field. Everywhere was lifeless, and there were no stars to be seen. However, there were a few clusters of meteorites piled up with rocks.
Another figure was reflected on the window.
Allen didn't need to turn his head to know who it was. "You can't get in touch?"
Catherine, who had lost a scorpion spear, only had the folded handle of a snake scythe in the martial equipment bag at her waist. She looked lonely. Holding the tactical board, she pursed her lips and shook her head. "The distance is too far. We can't send a message back to the Garden of Eden. We've lost contact."
"As expected." Allen flicked the porthole with his finger. "Look, how beautiful that nebula is."
"You still have the mood to look at this?" Catherine put away the tactical board. "We're in a bad situation. We don't know where this ship will fly to."
"Maybe it's hell." Allen said casually. He then turned around and smiled brightly. "But with you around, there's no difference between heaven and hell."
"Have you never thought that we might not be able to go back like this?"
"If I can't go back, then so be it." Allen smiled bitterly. "I just didn't have time to say goodbye to Lucy. I don't know if she will be angry with me."
Kathlyn's gaze softened as she leaned on Allen's shoulder. She didn't know if it was impossible for her to return after this trip. Allen reached out and wrapped his arms around her slender waist. She closed her eyes and said, "In the year of the heavy snow, the king snake attacked our village. That day, my father, who I had already forgotten what he looked like, was treated as food by Wang She. Before I was eaten, he wanted me to live. So I survived. But this time, I probably won't be able to keep my promise. "
Allen clenched his fists and said indifferently, "It's not too early to talk about this. Anyway, I won't give up until the very end. "
Catherine looked at him in surprise.
He looked out of the porthole, at the nebula that was gradually disappearing like cotton, and said, "Because I also promised someone that I would live on. If I die without doing anything, I'll be letting her down. "
Nebula light surged, forming Lanny's face, and like a bubble illusion, it flashed and disappeared.
Catherine didn't know it was her? Or him?
"Young master!"
Belmond came to their side with a solemn expression and nodded to Catherine. However, there was an unconcealable surprise on her face. After Catherine shed her indifference, the weakness that she inadvertently revealed made her want to be embraced and protected. Seeing Belmond, Catherine quietly brushed away Allen's hand and left the shoulder that she temporarily relied on. Standing up straight, she returned to the Major General of the Federation who could face ten thousand troops alone.
"What is it?" Allen retracted his hand that had a faint red mark on it and looked at his follower.
Belmond turned around and looked ahead, "You might have to take a look." His expression was seven points anxious and three points mysterious. Allen could guess why he was anxious, but he couldn't guess the mystery no matter what.
He shook his head and glanced at Catherine.
Wait for me here. Catherine read the meaning in that glance and nodded with a smile. She was stunned again. Since when did she have the same thoughts as him? Then, she was slightly angry, thinking that she was much stronger than him, so why should she listen to him? However, she still found a quiet corner to sit down. Ever since her father had died in the snake's stomach, there was nothing else she needed to wait for. It was worth it for her to wait. But now, there was finally one.
Then Lola came over. The wild Hulma woman slammed her sword on the floor and almost burst out a sentence from her mouth, "What exactly is your relationship?"
According to his previous temperament, the snake sickle should have shown its ferocity this time. But now, Catherine was in an exceptionally good mood, so she blinked and raised her head, "Guess?"
Lola probably couldn't guess, or she guessed and didn't want to accept it, so she would rather not guess. Allen didn't need to guess. When he arrived at the porthole at the front of the cab, he saw a planet.
This was a grayish-white planet, hanging alone in the dark curtain of space, giving it a sense of independence from the world. Originally, there was no need to be too surprised to see a planet, just like Hubble and Talikova. However, Allen and Belmore looked at each other. This grayish-white planet reminded them of their memories. That day on Planet Heaven, Vera had used a painting to predict that the painting was related to a grayish-white planet. Until now, both of them remembered the deathly silence and desolation in the painting.
However, there were so many things after that, not to mention Belmore, even Allen himself had forgotten about it. Only at this moment did he remember Vera's prophecy when he saw the grayish-white planet hanging in the distant sky.
Could it be that the planet that the girl had predicted, the Death Star that Allen would encounter incomparably dangerous things on, was the one in front of him?
Suddenly, Allen had an intuition that the airship's terminal was probably here.
No matter what, the flying ship continued to advance at a constant speed. Even if he didn't want to, the result would still come. Whether it was the Death Star in Vera's prophecy or not, the grayish-white star was firmly enlarging in front of the porthole. Two hours later, Allen finally saw the planet clearly.
This planet is dead.
This was his first thought.
But he wasn't completely dead.
This was the second.
He saw that there was only half of the grayish-white planet left. Half of the lower side of the star had already collapsed. Looking from the flying ship, one could still see a gray dragon below the planet. It was made up of the fragments of the planet that had collapsed. They drifted in all directions of the universe, and it would probably take many years before they completely dissipated. And now, this gray dragon was like a gray waterfall that flowed out of a celestial body, displaying the tension of death amidst the silence.
So strictly speaking, this is a dying planet.
If you look at the star's ecosystem, it is indeed dead. Even the force field has disappeared, otherwise the star would not have collapsed. It was said that it wasn't completely dead because of the many antennas, fortified buildings, flickering lights of various colors, and the many sharp cone-shaped objects that rose from the surface of the planet. Of course, these things would not be natural things on the planet, but man-made additions.
There was no way to know the function, but at first glance, this Death Star was like a Star Destroyer. With Adahua Planet's strength, it could only build one super-giant ship that was as big as a planet. The planet in front of him was naturally not a Star Destroyer. It had only been modified to a certain extent, but there was no way to know how effective it was. As the airship glided down and saw the other side of the planet, everyone on board was speechless.
The planet turned around, and from the perspective of the bottom, the star's body was almost hollowed out. Even though the planet was pitifully small, it was probably less than half the size of the moon. However, no matter how small it was, it was still a planet. The hollowed out planet was filled with many buildings, and it was like a huge base hidden in the planet. The center of the sphere was empty, and the surroundings were fixed with metal armor. It seemed that these fortifications had not been completed yet. One could see space engineering ships floating within, and there were even Grai giants carrying things with their bare hands.
Everyone on the airship looked at each other. Who would have thought that the outsiders would secretly build a space base here!
At this moment, the airship was flying towards the space base within the star. From afar, one of the beehive-like docks could be seen, and one of them was slowly raising the armored cabin door. Two tractor beams shot out from within, leading the airship that Allen and the others were on inside. Without a doubt, it was this space base that had remotely controlled the airship. It seemed that it should be the terminal of the mothership.
At this moment, in the command hall in the core area of this outsider space base. A slender figure covered in a black robe stood on the high platform. The high platform was suspended in mid-air. Below it was a gravitational device that firmly fixed the high platform in this position, and it could be moved freely through the console. Around him was a circle of light screens, each of which reflected a corner of the space base. Regardless of which corner it was, what appeared on the screen were fortifications that were being built.
At this moment, a Grai giant floated onto the platform and respectfully said to the black robe, who was less than a tenth of his height, "Lord Berukai, Lord Ohm has instructed the recovery of the M317 escape ship to enter Pier 8. Please instruct us on the next step."
Two balls of faint blue flames suddenly lit up in the hood of the black robe, and a sharp voice rang out, "Ohm, that stupid pig, can't even defend the Vanguard. Doesn't he know what this mothership means? Half of His Majesty Frius's painstaking efforts have been destroyed by him! "
As a fellow Grai, it would naturally not be a pleasant thing to hear his boss being scolded. They often called the Catus wild boars, but that didn't mean they were willing to be called pigs. However, the giant did not dare to be angry. After all, the person standing on the platform was Agares' supreme general, Berukai, who was known as the Fire Demon. Not to mention him, even the expeller didn't dare to breathe in front of this big shot.
It was a pity that Allen wasn't here. Otherwise, he would have recognized that this figure was the alien lifeform he had seen in the Chaos Canyon of Frost Star that day.
Berukai walked back and forth, blue flames constantly flying out from under his black robe. The giant cautiously retreated a little. He didn't want to be touched by these beautiful flames, not even a small handful. Berukai finally stopped, and two balls of flames lit up in his hat. "Without the Vanguard, the most important step of the Death Star Project will not be completed. I can only start the backup plan. Listen, tell Ohm when he comes back. No matter what, keep an eye on Death Star until I come back! "
Then he flicked his sleeves and left.
"My lord, about the escape ship?"
