In the faint blue nebula, a dark blue stripe could be seen clearly, but no one knew what it was. Old Jalopy's face drained of blood. "Heavens! Shan Lang! ‘
The blue stripe was visibly thickening.
Everyone's expression changed drastically!
The blue stripe grew thicker, and the faint blue nebula around the starship began to tremble. Even the starship itself was shaking. Everyone here was extremely sensitive. How could they not feel it? It was like a bolt of lightning, the might of Heaven and Earth shattering all of humanity's illusions.
The nebula trembled more and more violently. Everyone almost stopped breathing in the face of this unimaginably vast wave. What a surging blue tide! The wave was hundreds of thousands of kilometers high, and its length was endless, with no end in sight.
Everyone on the ship was shocked.
Only four people remained calm - Ye Chong, Rui Bing, the young boy, and the scarred bodyguard. In fact, Ye Chong's heart was beating so fast that he could feel his body tensing up. However, he knew that if he did not stay calm now, he would lose his only chance of survival.
The might of Heaven and Earth was unstoppable!
The young boy's eyes glowed a faint blue. Ye Chong could not help but think of Mu and Shang's bionic eyes. Ye Chong smiled wryly at himself for having such thoughts at a time like this. His anxiety was eased a little.
"How much time do we have?" The young boy asked, his voice sounding indescribably mature.
No one answered. They were all scared out of their wits. Ye Chong stared at the images from the optical system, and quickly calculated in his mind.
Perhaps the danger before him had stimulated Ye Chong. His mind was unusually clear, and his calculations were fast. "15 minutes! "The first one to calculate was the young boy. Five seconds later, Ye Chong got the same answer. He looked at the young boy in surprise.
"What amazing calculations!"
The young boy jumped down and ran to the photon processor. "Move!" His childish voice was full of majesty.
The bodyguard in front of the photon processor was shocked. He quickly recovered from his shock and scrambled to the side.
The little boy was too short, so he had no choice but to climb up the chair and stand on it. A pair of delicate little hands clumsily operated the optical computer. Ye Chong frowned at his clumsy movements, and hurried to the photon processor. He moved the boy and the chair to one side and quickly said, "Tell me what you want and I'll do it. ‘
The little boy was stunned for a moment before he smiled and said, "Big guy, you're the best. As soon as he finished speaking, his tone became serious. "Turn on the firepower system. ‘
Ye Chong's hands glided across the controls smoothly, unlike the clumsy movements of the little boy. However, the little boy seemed to have turned a blind eye to it. At that moment, he gave off a feeling of extreme calmness. Rui Bing even had the illusion that the little boy was not human.
'Mark the weapon configuration. ‘
"Open the energy supply light path. ‘
"Turn on the manual repair system. ‘
'Begin light circuit connection …' A series of data and component names came out of the boy's mouth. It was so fast that it was almost inaudible.
Ye Chong heard it clearly! "What a bold plan," Ye Chong thought to himself, but his hands did not slow down. He quickly understood the little boy's intention. The boy was actually trying to change the energy distribution method to increase the starship's firepower in a short period of time.
What surprised Ye Chong the most was the boy's familiarity with the starship's light circuit system. This was not something an average person could do. The industrial design of starships like this was already very mature, and it was not easy to make even the slightest change, much less to this extent.
The thought flashed through Ye Chong's mind, and he quickly turned his attention to what was in front of him. A string of nouns and technical jargon flowed out of the boy's mouth. Ye Chong had to concentrate to keep up with the boy's speed.
This was a very strange scene. A little boy was standing on a chair, staring at the optical computer with a serious expression as he spoke incessantly. Beside him, a young man was sweating profusely as he tried to operate the optical computer, his hands moving so fast that it was difficult to distinguish them from each other.
Three minutes passed, and the two still showed no signs of stopping. The little boy's forehead was beaded with sweat, but he was still talking fast. His blue eyes shone brightly. Sweat beaded on Ye Chong's forehead like soybeans, hanging off his forehead.
Five minutes passed, and the little boy's forehead was beaded with sweat, his face pale. Ye Chong's sweat flowed down his face like a stream, but he was still focused, showing no signs of fatigue, and his hands did not slow down at all.
Eight minutes passed, and the little boy's forehead was no longer sweating. Instead, his face was unnaturally red, but his blue eyes were still frighteningly bright. Ye Chong was still sweating like before, but he was still highly focused, his hands moving at the same speed as before. His current movements were already faster than the little boy's dictating speed.
12 minutes passed, and they were finally done! The little boy's face was pale, and Ye Chong noticed that his breathing was ragged. However, he still stood stubbornly on the chair. While his movements and posture were ridiculous, no one dared to laugh at him, not even Ye Chong. He used his actions to show everyone his strength.
Looking at his bodyguards, the little boy said, "Each of you, take a shooting chamber. Destroy all the large rocks." Having said this, he closed his eyes and fell from his chair. Ye Chong, who was beside him, quickly picked him up and handed him to Rui Bing. "Take care of him. ‘
"Alright." Rui Bing nodded. There was nothing she could do to help with the current situation.
The scarred man was the first to move. He sat in one of the shooting chambers without a word. The little boy's bodyguards seemed to have woken up from a dream, and all of them had expressions of shame on their faces. In the He Yue galaxy, if their master was in danger, and they had to sacrifice themselves, that would be the greatest humiliation to them.
They all entered the shooting chambers with bloodshot eyes.
The starship was equipped with 15 shooting chambers. These chambers were usually in automatic mode, but could be switched to manual mode with professional shooters.
Ye Chong could not help them at all. Under such circumstances, there was no room for him to do anything. In fact, there was a limit to what they could do now. It would be a miracle if the starship could survive such a huge wave.
Ye Chong stared at the holographic screen, his muscles tensed up.
The starship was shaking badly. Old Jalopy and Fei Si were secured. Ye Chong and Rui Bing, who had basic combat experience, were in better shape.
There were only three minutes left. The wave would hit Cornerstone. Everyone's face was pale to the extreme. When you looked at the endless waves crashing towards you, the deep shudders that burst forth from your bones burned in every inch of your nerves.
While there was no sound, everyone could hear the continuous rumbling of thunder in their ears.
Even the scarred man, who had always been indifferent, had turned pale from overexertion.
The starship was ascending. Under the force of the wave, the starship's engines were no longer functioning. It was like a small sailboat in the middle of a storm.
It was close!
This huge wave was like a boundless dark blue wall, pressing down on them in a way that humans simply couldn't resist.
Suddenly, the starship fired its first beam. Ye Chong did not have to think to know that it was the scarred man's doing. Soon, the other bodyguards recovered from their initial shock.
Beams of light rained down. Although these beams of light were insignificant in the face of the horrifying waves of the nebula, it was difficult to see a single ray of light. However, they represented an unyielding faith, a human spirit that would never admit defeat. Since ancient times, it had been this spirit that pushed humanity forward.
If an ant met an elephant, would it give up on the elephant's last struggle, and be trampled into a pile of minced meat under the elephant's disdainful gaze?
Everyone was doing their best. Ye Chong realized that these bodyguards were ridiculously good at shooting. Among them, the scar-faced man was the most amazing. It was as if he didn't need to lock onto his target. From the very beginning, he didn't stop at all and didn't miss a single shot.
In fact, Ye Chong and the little boy were thinking of the same thing. The scariest thing about this huge wave was not its enormous strength, but the rocks and other hard objects that were pushed to the front by this force. These rocks, under the force of the wave, were extremely destructive. The most terrifying thing was the large rocks. If the starship was hit by them, the starship would definitely be destroyed.
Hence, the little boy thought of redistributing the energy, increasing the starship's firepower, and then using the bodyguards' shooting skills to smash the large rocks.
Bang! The starship was sent flying. The world was spinning. Fei Si was in the worst condition, and vomited on the spot. Old Jalopy looked terrible as well. Only Ye Chong and Rui Bing remained in their original positions, rooted to the ground. The little boy was carried by Rui Bing, and he did not seem to be in a good condition either.
Unexpectedly, these bodyguards, who looked like embroidered pillows, were extremely fierce at this time. Their firepower was maintained at a very high state. As soon as a slightly larger rock entered their firing range, they would open fire without hesitation. Even under the turbulent conditions of the starship, their aim was still very accurate.
Clap, clap, clap! The rocks hit the armor of the starship like raindrops on a banana leaf. It was a very unique sound. Unfortunately, no one was in the mood to enjoy it.
The alarm went off, and Ye Chong's heart skipped a beat.
