There were originally a few doctors and nurses guarding her outside the door.
There were also her brother's subordinates — the "warriors" who were burly and angry.
Under the attack of the Air Quake, they had already turned into rolling gourds, and no one knew where they rolled to.
Pep turned on the lights on her protective suit and groped in the dark, twisted corridor. She encountered a lot of crew members along the way, but they were all bent over like shrimps, vomiting until tears flowed down their faces. They could not even stand straight, let alone stop her.
Some of them staggered as if they were drunk and giggled when they saw her. Their weird expressions made them look like a bunch of lunatics.
Pep knew that this was a special concussion caused by entering the space jump state in a hurry. The brain had experienced the process of "three-dimensional disintegration, four-dimensional teleportation, and three-dimensional reorganization" in a short period of time, which was also known as "Space Jump Syndrome".
Because the jump was too sudden, almost no crew members were prepared. Therefore, most of them were hit and could not come back to their senses for a long time.
Only Pep was safe and sound.
A dream creator who could communicate with a Void Hunter was the person with the most stable brain and the strongest soul.
Pep, on the other hand, had been influenced by Shanuya during her communication with him. Her brain was also influenced by Shanuya, and she was more adapted to the side effects of a space jump than ordinary people.
This was her biggest trump card.
It was also the key to her escape.
Following the instructions of her portable crystal processor, the girl stumbled to the escape area.
Thankfully, there were still three escape capsules that had not been launched. Also, the medical ship was still in an emergency state, so the escape capsules could be launched!
Pep crawled into one of the escape capsules without hesitation.
When the escape capsules were designed, they adopted a fully automatic operation mode to ensure that every child in the fleet could grasp the most basic settings and piloting methods.
The universe was vast and dangerous. Only such a design could ensure the survival of the "tinder" in a fleet to the greatest extent.
"Chi —"
Pepe heard an ear-piercing sound coming from behind the escape capsule, as if someone had kicked her in the back. After a moment of dizziness, the twisted steel was replaced by a bright cluster of stars, and she was launched into space.
Behind her was a cluster of starships that were still spinning.
In front of him was Shanuya, who was quietly floating in the universe, his life and death unknown.
Pep gritted his teeth and set the direction of the escape pod's dash. It flew toward Shanuya at high speed.
"Hold on, Sanua, I'm coming!"
Although it was only a tiny escape capsule, when all the starships were still in shock and had not regained control, the directional flames that it spurted out were still rather abrupt.
Soon, the escape pod's communication channel beeped, and a familiar voice rang out. "Who's in the escape pod? Have you lost control? Why are you flying toward the Void Hunter?"
It was her brother!
Her brother was still alive. He should be on the flagship with her father. Did that mean that her father was fine?
Pep felt a lump in his throat. He resisted the urge to respond and lowered his head.
"… Pep?"
Maybe it was his intuition, maybe it was because the brother knew that Pep was the only one on the medical starship who could recover from the space jump syndrome so quickly, or maybe it was because the brother knew that Pep was the only one who would go to the Void Hunter in the escape capsule stupidly. He asked tentatively.
Pep didn't have to answer, but she couldn't stop her tears from flowing down. The girl's voice trembled as she said, "Brother!"
"Pep, is it really you?"
The brother was overjoyed at first. Then, he burst into fury. "What are you doing? Come back!"
"No … I can't!"
Pep gritted her teeth so hard that blood flowed out of her lips. She said in a shivering voice, "I'm doing what I should do. I'm going to save Shanua!"
"What … What did you say?"
The brother bellowed, "You're crazy!"
"I'm not crazy. I'm sober enough to see everything clearly and remember everything that happened just now!"
The girl shrieked. "Just now, Shanua saved us without caring about his own life. He saved everybody in this fleet! He did not hesitate at all. He did not consider the gains or losses. He did not suspect or suspect us at all. He regarded us as his best friends, friends who were worth saving with his life!
"Now, I'm going to save him, too, just like how he saved us just now. He's my friend. He's Prince Shanua. He's unique. I — I'm our best friend. Is there a problem, brother?"
"Hilarious."
The brother said, "How are you going to save him?"
"I'm going to tell him the truth. I'm going to ask him to get away from here to a place where there are no human beings and never come back."
Pep gnashed her teeth. "The signal starship that you used to activate the 'explosion drug' inside his body was destroyed in the air shock just now, wasn't it? It will take at least one day for you to prepare a new signal transmitter, which will be enough for Shanua to escape."
"What if he doesn't escape?"
The brother said coldly, "What if he is infuriated after learning the truth and decides to destroy our starship and kill all of us?"
"Why do you always pronounce other people's death sentences with hypothetical questions?"
Pep's shrieks were even sharper and sharper. "If it weren't for Shanua's sacrifice, we would've all been killed! All the starships would've been ripped apart by the 'air shock', and everybody would've been reduced to cold dust in the sea of stars! Sanuya has just sacrificed himself to save us, but you have begun to suspect it and try to kill it before you get rid of the 'space jump syndrome'. What — what are you thinking about exactly in the heads of the adults?
"I — I have to tell Shanua the truth. Even if … he bursts into fury after he hears it, we all owe him our lives. Whatever the consequences are, they — they are what we deserve!"
The communication channel was silent for a long time. The brother seemed lost for words.
"… Brother?"
The girl, however, had a bad feeling.
As she expected, very soon, she saw a bluish ray of light rushing close from the starships. Very soon, it caught up with the round, clumsy escape capsule.
It was the brother who was wearing the universal armor.
Such a weapon of spiritual energy that was designed for assaults and sprints in wars was naturally much faster than the escape capsule.
At this moment, they were still ten thousand kilometers away from Shanua.
The brother opened his arms, with flames of spiritual energy dancing around him. Like a raging fiend, he stood in front of the escape capsule.
"I'm sorry, Pep. It's my duty. I can't let you move forward."
