"How many more secrets do you have?"
In the control room, Mia weakly leaned against the window, looking at the 'young man' who was equally hungry and thirsty but not weak.
Another twenty days had passed since the final battle in space. Within these twenty days, almost half of the people in the cabin had died of hunger and thirst. The remaining people, other than the corpses of their comrades, did not have a single grain of food left. They were all curled up weakly in a corner with their eyes sunken and lifeless.
They were once the proudest elites in the world, but now they were like maggots with cracked lips and closed eyes, murmuring in their sleep.
When the last piece of the corpse was eaten, the remaining one-third of the people could only rely on the little bit of recycled water to survive.
They did not know if they would be saved in the end. They no longer had the energy to think about these questions. In a half-conscious state, they quietly waited for death or a miracle.
The lifeboat seemed to have become the only aircraft in space, silently sailing.
Everything seemed extremely quiet, even breathing had become a luxury.
The 'young man' did not eat the corpses. Although he was hungry, very hungry, when he saw a soldier beside him chewing on a bloody piece of meat, he suddenly felt like vomiting. It was as if there was something terrible that he did not want to remember.
He gave the last of his food and water to Mia and the sharpshooter teammate, and then continued to starve.
The hunger and thirst made him unable to sleep, so he had to think of many things to divert his attention from the hunger and thirst.
According to the degree of his extreme hunger and thirst, he should have died of hunger and thirst long ago. It was impossible for him to still be alive.
But not only did he not die, what was even more strange was that he did not weaken like the others and lose the bio-energy that came from eating. After the critical point of hunger and thirst passed, the power in his body became more and more obvious, entering the starving cells on a large scale, taking over the task of sustaining his life.
He did not know where this power came from, but it was as natural and endless as if it was flowing out of his life. Without the interference of new biological energy, it finally transformed every part of his body as easily as breaking dry weeds and smashing rotten wood. It was as if he had rebuilt a new life system, but it was still very weak.
His appearance also changed rapidly in these twenty days. Now, he no longer looked like a young man.
The sharpshooter teammate joked, his eyes were filled with vicissitudes of life.
Miya said that the vicissitudes of life could break a person's heart at first glance …
His messy hair often prevented him from seeing the stars outside the window. There were several times when he wanted to cut them off, but he didn't want to draw his sword. Alran wasn't by his side, so he just ignored them.
But his fingernails had stopped growing at the rate they had been growing. Mia had trimmed them for him and they had not grown much.
He didn't look in the mirror because he felt like a monster in his heart. Although his Sharpshooter teammate, Little Tanuki, was sure that he was becoming more and more like a sharp sword, his eyes were a little older.
Looking at the weak and motionless Mia, he shook his head and said, "I don't know."
Little Tanuki leaned weakly against the wall of the ship and said, "Mama Berg's Reka committed suicide. What a wise choice. Otherwise, he would have starved to death like us."
Raika was the heavy weapon in their team of three. Because he had been injured in the fight, he hadn't been able to board the escape ship in time. Now that he thought about it, perhaps that outcome would have been better.
Mia closed her eyes and didn't speak anymore. Little Tanuki sighed and looked out the window.
Time passed bit by bit. The entire lifeboat was silent as if it had fallen asleep. The curled figures floating in the increasingly empty cabin were not sure if they were asleep or dead.
Gradually, he was the only one awake. He looked out the window at the cold planet that was getting closer and closer.
The energy on the spaceship was also gradually used up. The lights dimmed, and it was pitch black.
Loneliness, solitude, and coldness hit him wave after wave. No one responded to him, and no one was willing to open their eyes to look at the outside world.
He felt like he was trapped in a cold coffin, drifting in the universe. It was suffocating, but also like a cage.
He began to recall his' life ', but it stopped abruptly in front of the memory of' very cold '.
He began to accumulate power that could be clear and hazy, but the progress was slow. There seemed to be an invisible cage there too.
In the end, he cut his arm and used his blood to feed Mia, Little Tanuki, and the others. He fed them once a day, one by one. He was very afraid of the endless loneliness that he would feel when he was the only one left.
Day after day, he didn't know how many days had passed. About eleven days, or maybe thirteen days, he couldn't remember. Finally, a spaceship appeared outside the window.
He only took one look and realized that it was the spaceship of the alien fleet!
He wanted to wake Mia up and quickly steer the spaceship to avoid it. They weren't a match for the other party. Maybe it would only take one attack to dismember the lifeboat.
He didn't know if it was because he used his own blood to sustain his life, but Mia miraculously woke up. She was only in a daze for a moment. Under his alarm, she saw the unidentified signal on the screen and immediately controlled the spaceship to escape.
The spaceship immediately caught up and launched an attack from a long distance. The rear cabin was instantly grazed and a large hole was created.
He didn't have time to say anything. He immediately put on his spacesuit and grabbed the weapons of the soldiers guarding the empty warehouse. He opened the valves and floated to the gap in the rear cabin. While fixing himself, he raised the assault gun in his hand and aimed at the alien spaceship that was chasing after him.
Bang bang bang …
He fired dozens of shots in one breath until the magazine was emptied.
Unfortunately, he didn't hit the spaceship. It was too difficult to aim while it was floating.
Moreover, an assault rifle was no threat to it at all.
At this time, Little Tanuki came out from the valve and took the assault rifle in his hand. She quickly changed the magazine and said calmly, "I'll aim and you shoot. It has to be a combat skill. Otherwise, it'll be useless even if you hit it!"
He nodded and frowned. Little Tanuki skillfully hooked onto the pipe on the cabin wall and fixed her body. She had already raised the gun and aimed again.
Time was tight. He didn't think too much. He reached out and channeled the strength in his body into the assault rifle. He pulled the trigger heavily.
Bang!
A flame shot through the air, like a beautiful straight line of flame.
Boom!
The alien spaceship that was chasing after the lifeboat suddenly exploded like fireworks. Fragments scattered in all directions.
Little Tanuki was stunned for a moment. She reacted excitedly and wanted to say something. This was the first alien spaceship they had shot down. It might even be the first spaceship in the entire war!
However, she suddenly found that the assault rifle in her hand had already been broken into pieces. With a single move, it turned into thousands of pieces.
…
The soldiers in the lifeboat woke up one after another. There were only a third of the original number left. Including him, there were only sixteen people left.
The desolate planet was right in front of them. The desire to go home stimulated everyone's survival instinct. Those who piloted the spaceship piloted the spaceship, those who repaired the rear cabin repaired the rear cabin, and those who could not help retrieved their weapons and armed themselves.
In the midst of their work, they seemed to have forgotten that they were still alive. Although their bodies were still weak, there was a fire burning in their chests. This was especially so for Mia, who had the highest energy level.
However, she didn't have time to think about what was going on. She was focused on directing the spaceship to fly quietly towards the desolate planet.
The main fleet of the alien fleet was not here. It might have really lost its power and energy. There were only a few small spaceships patrolling around the desolate planet.
They probably thought that they had completely eliminated all space forces on this planet. Their space security was very lax, not to mention a blockade. They were only protecting an orbit that led to the ground.
However, they had already been discovered by an alien spaceship. Danger was definitely present. They had to speed up and return to the planet. Otherwise, they would definitely be surrounded and killed.
Mia decisively ordered the spaceship to use the last backup energy source to push the spaceship's thrusters to the maximum. Since they were already exposed, life and death depended on this.
As expected, before the lifeboat entered the orbit, two more spaceships sped up from the side. Their pitch-black outer shells shone with the aura of the Grim Reaper under the light of the stars.
Once they were in range, they opened fire.
Mia gritted her teeth. She manually controlled the spaceship to cut through the atmosphere and forced its descent.
At this moment, the entire spaceship was shaking violently as if it was going to fall apart at any time. Creaking sounds could be heard everywhere.
It was impossible to fight back like before. Furthermore, there were two spaceships. If they were hit once, they would be finished.
The outer shell started to catch fire. The friction with the atmosphere caused the spaceship to plummet at high speed.
The two spaceships were still in hot pursuit, firing continuously. Although they had dodged the main attack, the lifeboat was still riddled with holes.
The number of survivors dropped once again. There were less than ten people left!
The air in the cabin leaked out. All kinds of instruments short-circuited and sparked. The alarms were getting louder and louder.
However, Mia's decision proved to be correct. The small alien spaceships obviously did not have the technology to ignore gravity. If they did not want to be dismembered and burned like them, they had to follow the best path to enter the atmosphere.
This caused the two alien spaceships to brush past them in the nick of time. When they turned back, they were already in the atmosphere.
The number of survivors dropped once again. There were only eight people left. Two of them died in the explosion in the cabin.
The outer shell of the spaceship had already separated. Mia manually opened the landing cabin to leave. During this period, another three people died. There were only five people left.
After that, the remaining five people finally entered the landing cabin. The dismembered lifeboat fell to the ground at high speed.
"We've done everything we could. Whether we live or die, we'll leave it to the Overgod!"
Mia looked at the four people in front of her one by one. Her gaze finally landed on him. She smiled sadly.
"Cespia, thank you."
There was a bang outside. The umbrella had opened. Next, they would have to face the impact on the ground.
The increasing gravity made him a little uncomfortable. He had no choice but to tie himself tightly to the landing cushion seat.
The five of them held weapons in their hands. On the ground, the flames of war had already reached the sky.
Below the red landing pod was a huge city. At this moment, the flames of war were everywhere. Screaming people were running out of the city. Behind them, there were neat rows of soldiers in silver uniforms. No expression could be seen under their cold masks. The tadpole-shaped flying machines flew over their heads, slaughtering the fleeing people and even every living creature.
Even further away, tens of thousands of cavalrymen were attacking cities under the banner of the King of Hunters. Wherever they passed, blood flowed like rivers. The cavalrymen of the Divine Temple and the warriors of the Hull family were scattered and scattered under their rolling hooves.
Enjue, who was at Energy Rank Level 9, held a corpse in his arms. He looked at the invincible cavalry formation that was charging at him like a flood.
