The old man slowly told Mu Ran about their origins. He seemed to be at the end of his life. His words were intermittent, and even after a long time, he could only give a general idea.
They came from a distant desolate planet. When the Cold Star fleet left, although they did not take them with them, they left behind a small spaceship.
Thousands of years later, generation after generation, they gradually prospered on the undisturbed desolate planet. Although they were still very backward, they could barely enter the small spaceship that was left for them to learn.
In the small spaceship, they learned the small spaceship's language, and learned many things that they had never learned before. They quickly grew up.
When they understood the truth of their ancestors' history and understood the dangers of the future, with the rapid advancement of technology, they gathered the manpower and resources of the entire world in an attempt to build a larger spaceship that could carry more people and leave the dangerous desolate planet.
At that time, they did not know that it was near the end of the Milky Way. The third battlefield at the edge of the galaxy had become a sea of blood. Their star field was still quiet. The universe was so big that one place could be a sea of blood and a mountain of corpses, and another place could be as quiet as a forest. It was as if they would never interfere with each other.
The first test flight of the spaceship suffered a disastrous failure. Their technology was still too backward, but disaster struck before they could even wait for the second test flight.
A battleship riddled with scars broke into their peaceful world.
However, they were instantly defeated without any ability to resist. Those once proud weapons, in the eyes of the enemy, were no different from toys. The war quickly ended. After a large number of their compatriots were slaughtered, a small number of people were brought into this warship that seemed to have experienced a bitter and bloody battle.
They thought that they would be like their ancestors, once again reduced to slaves and test subjects. Perhaps they would appear on another planet, another desolate planet.
However, this spaceship was too damaged, and it had been desperately escaping, as if it was being chased by someone. When it flew out of the Milky Way, it suffered dozens of different but extremely dangerous attacks. As a result, in the small dark domain outside the Milky Way, the enemy, who had suffered heavy casualties, had no choice but to use them as navigation 'slaves', repairing the spaceship, and so on.
However, even if the enemy was so weak that they only had one breath left, they could not resist, and could only become 'slaves' for eternity.
However, it seemed that the heavens did not completely abandon them. In the dark domain, the spaceship encountered a spaceship that was as miserable as the enemy. In order to get resources to cross over, both sides immediately fought with all their strength.
The old man did not know why the enemy who captured them did not kill them at the most difficult time. Instead, they protected their lives, but that was all. It seemed that they only wanted them to live.
The spaceship that came to steal resources also saw this and used this as a weakness. They almost won, even destroying all the space alien embryo storage in the spaceship. but in the end, they still failed.
However, in this war, those 'bandits' used them to wreak havoc inside the spaceship. They attacked their enemies, allowing them to be armed quickly. They had many ways to deal with the 'slave masters'.
This included the dying machine behind them. This intelligent machine had fought alongside them for a very long time. It was not only a weapon, but also a comrade that they relied on for survival. It was still barely hanging on to this day.
Although the bandits had died in battle, they had helped them obtain part of the authority in the spaceship. This was one of the reasons why they could live until now.
In this desperate war, they did not know how many of their own kind they had killed. Today, they were actually in despair. Even with the malicious' help 'of those bandits, they were still defeated because the gap between them and the enemy was too big. If not for the destruction of all the embryos, if not for the fact that the enemy did not want to kill them all, they might have been killed long ago.
The appearance of Mu Ran and the others reignited their hope. The small spaceship that left behind the barren planet seemed to vaguely indicate that the gods who left thousands of years ago were one of their kind.
Therefore, even though they knew that this was the enemy's plan to lure them to give up on suicide, they could not help but fall for it. They believed that as long as those people from back then came back, they would definitely be able to defeat today's enemy, and their race would not be completely wiped out.
When Mu Ran approached them step by step, they could not attack, and they hesitated to commit suicide. They could only desperately want Mu Ran to wake up and get rid of the enemy's fake world. For this reason, they had to kill countless of their companions.
Seeing that Mu Ran was only one step away from them, and the machine behind them was about to be turned off, they were about to become 'slaves' again and lose the last chance to commit suicide. Mu Ran finally "woke up". They won.
As for Mulan's companions, only two of them survived. Between the real and the fake, there were also real confusion. They had indeed saved five people from the cold planet. The two who had just died probably died because they had made a wrong choice after a moment of hesitation.
After Mu Ran heard this, she still had many questions, but these desolate aliens could not answer them.
Why could the tiny creatures find the traces of the fast spaceship? Was it a coincidence, or was there another reason?
According to the old man's description, she naturally thought that it was the Red Man.
If the tiny creatures were really the Red Man, then it would be too terrifying. When they were on the desolate planet, everyone, including Chu Yunsheng, was deceived by them!
She vaguely knew that the tiny creatures had proposed a coordinate for the original cold planet fleet to go there to study the method of creating Source Body for the Red Man. If they really went there, and the tiny creatures were indeed the Red Man, then it would be a huge trap!
The Red Man fleeing in all directions after seeing the fleet was destroyed was simply a lie. On the contrary, it was very likely that they went to that coordinate to set up a trap.
Mu Ran felt a chill down her spine. At that time, they were still very weak. If they fell into the trap carefully arranged by the enemy, and the enemy already knew about them, they would have almost no chance of survival.
But the cruelty and ruthlessness of space was like this. Even if their own kind were killed one by one in front of them, as long as the other party did not discover their true identity, they could act as if nothing had happened. They would not be angry, sad, excited, and would not die. They would only calmly continue to plan all kinds of schemes until they achieved their goals.
How many of their kind died was not their first concern.
But were the tiny creatures really Red Man? After all, no one had really seen the Red Man, so Mu Ran could not be sure.
The only thing she could be sure of was that the tiny creatures were indeed very interested in human beings. According to their original statement, they lurked in the desolate planet for tens of thousands of years just to steal human beings.
Looking at the two surviving comrades who also had lingering fears, as Ali's assistant and the highest commander here, Mu Ran immediately said, "the enemy must still be alive, the battle is not over yet. Lao San, you are proficient in the system. Try to find a way to use the invasion program left by the space race that deliberately helped the desolate planet to control the battleship. Only by controlling the battleship can we have the qualification to fight the enemy."
"Deputy Captain, don't worry, I have secretly learned a section of the Wu Nu people's code. As long as it enters the enemy's internal system, it will work. To be honest, Brother Da Jun's system is good, but I prefer the coldness and viciousness of the Wu Nu people's code." The cold planet called Lao San had escaped from death many times, and his mind was tough. Ignoring the large number of bodies around him, he had already skillfully begun to learn the system of this spaceship.
"You didn't secretly learn it. Yiyi let you learn it on purpose." Mu Ran had never told him the truth because she did not want to hurt his pride and confidence when he secretly learned it. Yiyi had told her at the time, but she had been hiding it until now.
"It doesn't matter, Deputy Captain. I have learned it anyway." Lao San seemed to be a cold-blooded person. Maybe he had seen too many comrades die, so he did not have a strong reaction to the two who had just died, or maybe he was used to hiding his feelings deep inside his heart. His eyes were cold, and he did not like to talk.
On the other hand, the other surviving comrade looked sad, but he also tried to control himself. After quickly saluting the two dead comrades with Mu Ran, he automatically became responsible for the surrounding situation.
Mu Ran began to calmly think about the current situation. According to what the old man said, the micro-creature had indeed contacted one of their main battleships, and it would arrive soon. If they could not seize the control of this battleship before that, it would be very dangerous.
She did not expect Lao San to be able to completely control the battleship. That was too difficult. Even if they had trained and learned for a long time, they would not be able to defeat a real cosmic race. Even if they had the help of those "robbers". Her real goal was to let Lao San use a section of the Wu Nu people's code to seize the opportunity to send a signal to the fast battleship and the main fleet.
As long as the signal was sent out, no one would be able to catch it, and they would have a chance to survive.
This place should not be too far away from the fast battleship, and the speed of light of the signal was always much faster than any spaceship.
"What else can I help you with?" the weak old man asked.
Mu Ran thought for a second and said, "I do have a plan, but you will be sacrificed …"
…
Recently, Chu Yunsheng had been going back and forth between the new spaceship and the fast battleship to ensure that the two spaceships could rendezvous smoothly.
When he appeared in the fast battleship again, using the spare lifeform that the battleship temporarily created for him according to the simple method of the Drow, he walked out of the storage area. Through the highest authority, he found that the fast battleship had received a signal from Mu Ran and the others ten days ago.
The content of the signal was very compressed, there were no coordinates, it only mentioned that there would be a willing descending body, and it would keep the consciousness in an intense mood …
Chu Yunsheng left a message for Miya, and then immediately returned to the bubble world again.
At this time, a huge oval-shaped battleship was already very far away from Mu Ran's spaceship.
