It wasn't that Czedow was wrong. It was true that there were very few robberies in this area, and even a hunter would have to behave themselves. After all, the influence of the few big families in Sector H was too great, and everyone had to give them some face. No robber would be stupid enough to come to this place and rob.
However, what happened right now was truly out of everyone's expectations. No one would've thought that something like this would happen in this place.
The moment Huimao noticed the commotion in the passenger cabin, he immediately went over to watch the show. Czedow didn't want to stay here any longer. Although the passenger cabin where the accident happened wasn't the one Silin was in, the two cabins were very close to each other. There was no telling what might happen.
Silin had been sleeping very well at first, and he even deduced a couple of formulas in his sleep. But he was woken up by a series of explosions. The passengers around him were very panicked, and they only calmed down a little after the flight attendants came over to calm them down. It was because everyone believed that no serious accident could happen in this area, and even if something did happen, someone would come over very quickly to deal with it.
However, to their disappointment, the cabin door they were in was blown open with a bang the moment the group of people in the cabin sat down. Two brawny men with guns and shoulder cannons stood outside the door. It was their shoulder cannons that blew open the cabin door just now.
The cabin door was controlled by a password, but the captain didn't tell them the password. After their jammer came into effect, the door was shut even tighter. The only way to save time was to blow it open.
The appearance of the two people at the door caused the passengers who had just calmed down to panic once more. It was only after the two brawny men fired a couple of shots to silence the passengers that the cabin finally quieted down.
Normally, people who rode passenger starships didn't have powerful backgrounds, and they weren't rich people either. If that was the case, who would ride passenger starships in the first place? They would've flown away in their personal spaceplanes a long time ago. However, although the people here weren't exactly rich, they were still relatively rich compared to the normal people of the other Sectors. Most of the people who came to Sector H were here to 'make a fortune'. Sector H was one of the Sectors ranked at the top of the ten Free Trade Sectors in terms of overall evaluation.
Robbers?
This was the common reaction of the people in the cabin when they saw the duo.
The flight attendant and the mechanical assistants did not move at all. They did not know what to do because the guards on the starship did not appear. They had not appeared yet. In other words, if they were to continue like this, they wouldn't be able to count on those guards.
What about the defense system? It was also malfunctioning, as if the signal had been interfered with. Now, the control room on the starship had been completely replaced. The original pilots had been beaten unconscious and thrown to the side and tied up.
No captain spoke, and no guards appeared on the starship. The passengers knew that there was no point in looking forward to it. Saving their lives was more important. They just hoped that these robbers would let them go.
However, to everyone's surprise, one of the robbers went straight to a seat and then pulled the person on the seat away without looking at anyone else.
"Hey, what are you doing? I don't have much money on me … Don't hit me, don't hit me, I'll give you whatever you want, okay? Don't kill me! "The person who was being pulled like a little chick said shakily.
However, the strong man who was pulling him ignored him completely and walked away, leaving the group of passengers staring at each other. However, there were still two strong men standing guard at the door, so they did not dare to move carelessly. Even people who thought they had good mobility would not dare to act carelessly. Didn't they see that the robbers were fully armed? Two fists are no match for a cannon barrel.
There was an uncle sitting next to Silin. The uncle looked at the two people at the door with trepidation and was about to share his feelings with the people next to him when he realized that there was no one beside him since some time ago.
Celine had already hidden himself when the cabin door was blasted open. The seat he had bought was close to the corner, so he didn't have much of a presence. Just now, while everyone's attention was attracted by the explosion, he had already made his move.
These people did not look like robbers, but more like violent people. There was not much greed in their eyes, but more disregard for life. In their eyes, these passengers were not even comparable to insects.
They were organized and planned violent people. They were definitely not after money. The person who was taken away just now was a doctor. Silin was sure that he was just an ordinary doctor with no special background. Even such a doctor was forcibly taken away. Could it be that these people's target was the doctor on the starship?
The fact that they were able to go directly to that seat after coming in showed that these people were very familiar with the information of the passengers on this passenger starship. Silin used fake information, so he was not afraid that they would find out anything.
The person who was being pulled was directly taken to a lounge, which belonged to the main people in charge of this starship. The others would not have such good treatment.
There was a person lying on the bed in the lounge, a woman who was almost middle-aged. Because of her injuries, she looked very weak. Her complexion was very bad, and her skin was a little dry and cracked. Even if the person sitting next to her kept using the humidifier to relieve her, it did not help. No matter how beautiful a person was, after being tortured to this state by illness, she would not be much better, at least on the surface.
There were two people sitting next to the patient on the bed. One was the person who kept using the humidifier, and the other was fiddling with some medicine. He should also be a doctor. However, looking at the way they interacted and how casual they were with each other, they should be in cahoots.
"Boss, here he is." The strong man who walked in put down the poor doctor in his hands and pushed him forward.
The doctor was originally frightened, and his legs were weak. He was still fine after being pulled all the way here, but now that he was put down and saw the people in the room, he felt his legs go even weaker, and he directly knelt on the ground.
The person sitting next to the bed holding the humidifier with his back facing the door finally turned his head slowly. He was also a very strong and burly man, with thick brown hair covering his head. Just one side of his face, and he did not even look directly at the eyes, but it made the poor doctor feel as if he had been cut by a knife.
His aura was too strong, and it was oppressive and tyrannical. It was like a steel knife with a threatening murderous aura, making people who saw him tremble in fear, afraid that they would not be able to avoid him in time.
"Come here," the man said.
It was just two words, but it made people feel unusually depressed. The doctor who was kneeling on the ground trembled and felt that he could not breathe. He moved forward a little timidly, and then directly went limp.
The eyebrows of the person who pulled him over trembled. He did not expect that the doctor would be so useless, and he had already fainted before he could be used.
"Boss, this … should we get rid of this?"
The person at the door did not dare to look at his boss. He was afraid to look directly into his boss's eyes.
"Throw him out."
The person sitting on the bed looked at the patient and said without turning his head.
These three words were light, but it made the big man guarding the door clearly feel that his boss was now even angrier, but because of the person on the bed, he had been suppressing his anger. Don't be fooled by his gentleness to the patient on the bed, if it was someone else, he would definitely not have such an attitude.
"Yes! We are looking for other doctors on the passenger list, and I believe that someone will be sent here soon … "
The voice of the big man at the door was getting smaller and smaller. He originally wanted to comfort his boss, but now the more he spoke, the less confidence he had. He wanted to slap himself a few times. Seeing that his boss did not speak, the big man carefully raised his head and looked over. His boss still had his back facing the door, and he was gently nursing the patient with the humidifier. However, after the person who was dispensing the medicine on the other side gave him a look, the big man hurriedly picked up the person who fainted on the floor and took him out of the room.
The person holding the bottle looked at the patient on the bed, then looked at the other one, sighed softly, and continued to fiddle with the medicine in his hand. Although they had long been used to seeing life and death, and were also prepared to meet God or go to hell in the next moment, when it really came to this moment, they were reluctant, especially when the person who was about to leave was their dear friend. The feeling of helplessness was even stronger.
No one could escape death, and no one was willing to bear that kind of helplessness and despair.
The person sitting next to the bed carefully moved the humidifier, so that it could work better. Suddenly, his arm that was moving the humidifier paused, and the next moment, his other hand was already holding a gun, pointing at a certain part of the room, and fired three consecutive shots.
The penetrating power of the bullet was very strong, and it went through the wall of the room and shot to the other side of the wall. The wall that was left with bullet marks cracked outwards from the bullet holes, turning into debris and falling down. The originally small bullet hole became the size of a fist in less than a breath's time.
He raised his hand, raised the gun, and shot, and this series of actions was also completed in an extremely short period of time.
The person holding the bottle on the other side of the bed also stopped what he was doing, took out his gun, and looked at the bullet hole vigilantly. There was someone on the other side of the wall, and it was not one of their people. Before entering this room, they had cleaned up the surrounding rest rooms, and there were people guarding the outside, so how could someone enter the room next to it? Their own people would definitely not do it, and they knew their boss's temper, so it could only be someone else!
Through the three fist-sized holes, the two people on this side saw the unknown person on the other side. They did not know him, but this would not lower their vigilance.
Under the gaze of the two people on this side, a finger poked into one of the holes, and then cut to the side, like a knife cutting bread, it looked very easy, and soon, a door-shaped passage was cut.
The person holding the humidifier narrowed his eyes. He was sure that he had hit the person on the other side of the wall just now, or there would have been another sound of the wall being pierced. But who was this person?
Czedow passed through the wall and walked over, but he did not approach. If he approached recklessly, the other party would become even more hostile towards him, and this was not Czedow's intention.
Seeing that the other party did not move or move closer, the person sitting on the bed asked, "Are you from the Sixth Corps? Or the Fifth Corps, the Eighth Corps, or even the Second Corps? "The person put down the humidifier in his hand and looked at the person walking over from the other side of the wall. This was the first time he put down the humidifier in his hand since entering this room.
"None of them."
This voice did not belong to Czedow.
Behind Czedow, Silin walked over from the other side of the wall.
"Blood Eye Aiken?" Silin looked at the person sitting on the bed.
After Silin exited the passenger cabin, he snuck into the room next door through the air vent at the top of the passageway. It was also there that Silin received Lung's specific information.
The reason Sector H was under martial law right now was because there were reports that a dangerous person had entered this Sector and stolen a luxurious spaceplane.
Aikenthus, one of the major forces that had recently risen up in Sector V — the leader of the Freedom Army. Because Aikenthus's eyes were as red as blood, he was also called Blood Eye Aiken by the people. However, no one knew why Aikenthus would come here.
He was a dangerous person. He was bad-tempered, tyrannical, and very strong. It was obvious from the fact that he was able to detect the movements in the other room through the wall just now that his senses were very strong, and his actions of firing the gun were extremely fast. Just now, Czedow was just trying to touch the wall to install a surveillance device. He did not expect to be shot three times the moment he touched the wall.
Silin looked at Aikenthus. Right now, Aikenthus's eyes were no longer blood red. Many people recognized Aikenthus from his signature blood red eyes, but that was not the case right now.
Right now, Aikenthus's eyes were a little off. Even their movements were a little stiff, and they did not have much luster. This was because Aikenthus had used drugs. He knew that his signature blood red eyes would be easily recognized by others, but his eyes were too special. A lot of drugs were useless against him, and he could not wear contact lenses or dye them conventionally. In the end, it was Inleyson, the person who had been concocting the drugs next to him, who finally came up with the drug after a period of research. However, the side effect was that after using the drug, one's eyesight would decrease, and their eyes would not be able to keep up with the body's movements. Even so, Aikenthus's senses were undeniable.
The drug controlled the color of his eyes. When Silin first saw them, they were brown, a brown that did not have much luster. However, after Silin said Aikenthus's name, his eyes began to change. It was as if they were dyed with blood, and the brown color spread from the edges until it covered his entire pupil.
Some people described Blood Eye Aiken's eyes as hell, and they were not lying. At the very least, Silin felt like it.
When the color of blood covered Aikenthus's pupils, everything around him seemed to have fallen into a space filled with blood. In reality, this was just an illusion caused by the psychological pressure of a gaze, but there were not many people who could resist this kind of pressure. When people looked at Blood Eye Aiken, they felt that everything around them had been dyed red.
Hearing Silin reveal his true identity, Aikenthus did not continue to disguise himself. Moreover, the drug would restrict the movement of his eyes. The enemy was clearly very strong, and Aiken did not expect the people outside to be of much help. Therefore, he decisively removed the drug's control. This way, he would be able to deal with what was coming next better.
The blood eyes that had returned to their original color showed that the owner of this body was extremely hostile towards the newcomers. It was as if he wanted to come and kill them immediately.
"We are just passersby. We are not from the military, and we have no intention of tangling with you," Silin said.
Aikenthus did not trust Silin. In fact, the number of people Aikenthus could trust could be counted on one hand, and considering the environment of Sector V, it was already good enough that people like them could be trusted.
At first, Silin did not plan to get involved. After all, he was also on this starship, and all he needed to do was pay attention to the enemy's movements. He would not participate in anything else. However, he did not expect that Czedow would be discovered. Since he was discovered, he could not go according to plan. According to the information Lung provided, Aikenthus would not let Silin and Czedow go easily.
Silin was not afraid of fighting Aikenthus head on, but he did not want to expose too much at a time like this. Aikenthus was operating in secret, and he himself had to conceal his tracks.
Aikenthus was not planning to let Silin and Czedow go. He was not afraid even if the enemy had shown him his uniqueness just now. Just as Aichenthus was about to attack, Celine spoke up. Celine's words caused Aichenthus, who was about to attack, to stop in his tracks.
"She can't hold on for much longer. Fifteen minutes at most. You know what will happen after fifteen minutes."
The person on the bed was very weak. From the rhythm of her breathing and the weak sound she made, Silin could tell that she was one step closer to death with every passing moment.
"She's been poisoned. Plus, her body may be weak to begin with. It's one disaster after another, "Silin continued.
If Silin's first sentence was to stop Aikenthus, then Silin's second sentence temporarily cut off Aikenthus's thoughts. Right now, he had no effective way to slow down the bedridden patient's condition. However, Silin's words allowed Aikenthus to see a ray of hope. He was willing to try even if it was just a tiny bit.
They did not go to Sector E because the military was keeping a close eye on that place. Sector H was undoubtedly the best choice other than Sector E. Sector H was a very prosperous Sector because of the existence of great families like the Andriera family and many famous families with long histories in the League of Stars. They supported the prosperity of Sector H. Sector H had a lot of things, and its development was not limited to just one area. From food, clothing, housing, health care, literature and education, all of them were well developed. They came to Sector H for treatment, but they did not expect some mistakes to occur along the way and be discovered.
The water vapor in the bedridden patient's body was seriously evaporating, and she could not even eat normal food. What was even stranger was that liquid food would accelerate the rate of her body's exhaustion, and she could not be injected with nutrients through the infusion tube. She could not easily swallow dry rations either, so she could only rely on small specially made nutrition pills to support herself.
While speaking, the fingers of the person on the bed moved. Her eyes moved on the dry, dead skin and flakes on her face, but they did not open.
"Aiken, I … saw it." The person on the bed said. Her voice was very hoarse, and there were a few words that she could not utter.
After saying this, she fell into a deep slumber again.
"Ten minutes left." Silin looked at Aikenthus.
"You can save her? As long as you save her, I will agree to anything you want, as long as I can do it, even if it means going against the eight great legions! "
Looking into Aikenthus's bloodshot eyes, Silin shook his head, "I cannot save her, but I can delay them."
