Chapter 999 Arrived as Promised

  Chapter 999 Arrived as promised

  ”That’s it.”

  In the gym on the lower deck, “Luo Yi” floated at the door of the room and raised the gun in his hand.

  The source of the electronic warfare invasion was right in front of it.

  A huge stream of data was attacking the shipboard server of the Orion missile cruiser through the communication module of the landing craft in front of him.

  Before that, it and its comrades behind it seized the control of the starship through this backdoor.

  However, this little mouse was still a step slow after all.

  No matter how fancy the hacker was, he couldn’t stop the shot on the forehead.

  Although it was 200 years late and faced many obstacles, it finally fulfilled the long-cherished wish of its comrades.

  There would be no more accidents this time –

  passing through the obstacle in the air, it floated into the room.

  Just as it was about to step forward to complete the final blow, the surrounding magnetic field suddenly became as violent as boiling magma.

  Feeling the sudden change in the magnetic field beside him, “Luo Yi” suddenly became alert, but it was too late to dodge.

  The moment it turned its head, the alloy fragments and wreckage floating in the air seemed to be grabbed by an invisible hand and rushed to its side!

  ”Luo Yi” almost instinctively raised his alloy arms and knees to resist, and then a crisp sound of “clang!” spread throughout his body, hitting him like a baseball and flying out!

  His back hit the wall heavily, and the sensors all over his body shook, and the electronic components almost short-circuited.

  Looking at the steel bracket stuck on his body like a chain, “Luo Yi” was shocked and angry, and tried hard to push it away, but found that not only the steel wreckage, but also himself was magnetized and sucked to the alloy cabin wall behind him.

  Feeling the crackling static electricity behind him, he instantly understood what happened.

  ”I see… the magnetic field is induced by electric current.”

  ”But it’s too naive to expect that this level of magnetic field can trap me.”

  It sneered, and the nitrogen from the jet pack behind it surged out, pushing its entire body forward.

  At the same time, it had adapted to the resistance and began to use its hands to remove the magnets stuck to its body and the wall behind it.

  This was probably the last trap.

  Just as it was thinking this, it saw a figure standing in the dark room.

  It was a boy of about seventeen or eighteen years old.

  In his hand was a universal nuclear battery, probably pulled from a power armor.

  Looking at the hair that was floating due to static electricity, it instantly understood where the manic current came from.

  But what shocked it was far more than that, but this guy could move in a vacuum without wearing protective equipment just like itself!

  He was also a bionic man? !

  Realizing the danger, “Luo Yi” immediately increased the output power of the motors all over his body to the maximum, trying to break free from the steel debris imprisoned on his body.

  However, it soon discovered in horror that the magnetic field imprisoned around him suddenly magnified in an instant.

  Not only that –

  the huge magnetic field was still fluctuating violently!

  And between the peaks and troughs of the high-frequency changes, terrifying energy was accumulating!

  Luo Yi’s consciousness was in a trance for a moment, and then the image captured by the lens sensor showed obvious jamming and tearing.

  Unlike organic bodies.

  Although bionic people can ignore the killing of neutron plumes, they cannot be exempted from the influence of magnetic fields!

  And the more sophisticated and miniaturized the components are, the more so!

  ”… High-frequency changing magnetic fields… will destroy your… control circuits…”

  ”… Quick… stop…”

  With the consciousness of jamming, Luo Yi’s pupils stared at the boy in the center of the magnetic storm, and raised the gun in his hand while persuading him to stop.

  However, due to the interference of the magnetic field on the sensor, the muzzle of the gun kept shaking, and it could not aim at the guy who was not far away from him.

  ”Bang–!”

  It finally pulled the trigger and fired several shots in a row, but the man standing in front of it seemed to be fine.

  Suddenly, Luo Yi saw that the bullet that broke out of the barrel actually stopped in the air, as if it was stuck by an invisible spider web!

  While this guy was imprisoning it, he actually had the remaining computing power to mobilize the magnetic field to defend against its attack!

  ”Luo Yi”‘s pupils flashed with disbelief, staring blankly at the boy standing in the center of the magnetic storm.

  ”…You…are…what on earth…”

  The man did not answer his question, but looked down at his eyes expressionlessly.

  Tiny metal fragments were suspended beside him, connected in series by the arcs that jumped like silver snakes, together with the bullets he had fired earlier.

  The sight seemed to penetrate his circuit board, causing his empty soul to surge with a trace of unprovoked fear——

  ”Go to hell——”

  ”You fake!”

  The violent current shrank in an instant, and the electromagnetically accelerated projectiles hit “Luo Yi” who was supported on the wall by the steel wreckage like a rainstorm, shooting it into a sieve!

  The solid alloy shell and bionic skin were vulnerable to the electromagnetic gun’s shooting, and they were torn into pieces in an instant, turning into fragments and splashing around.

  Ye Shi did not stop his actions, nor did he give his opponent a chance to breathe, but poured all his anger on the gushing metal storm.

  He drained the last bit of power from the nuclear battery in his hand, and threw all the working fluids that could be used as shells at hand at once, until the capacitors on his prosthesis finally couldn’t stand the overload and burst out silver arcs!

  As for “Luo Yi”, who was at the center of the surging firepower, it had been completely smashed into pieces.

  When the last bullet was nailed into its chest, the indestructible steel body seemed to have turned into a crooked rag, hanging unconscious on the tattered alloy wall, twitching intermittently under the effect of static electricity.

  It’s over…

  Fortunately, he caught up.

  Looking at “Luo Yi” who had completely lost his ability to move, Ye Shi felt as if all the strength in his body had been drained, and he relaxed all of a sudden. The

  nuclear battery in his palm floated out from his fingertips and rolled to a corner of the room like a hollowed-out can.

  A line of numbers was printed on the shell of the nuclear battery.

  Although he didn’t know which warrior this line of numbers belonged to, he thought he should be one of the 3,000 warriors on the Orion missile cruiser.

  ”Thank you…”

  Ye Shi muttered in his heart, recalling those familiar faces.

  Sure enough.

  Time is irreversible.

  Their existence eventually disappeared in this universe, along with the plan called “Dawn”.

  However, he still didn’t think that the decision they made at the moment of death was in vain.

  If it weren’t for that experience, he would probably be like a headless fly bumping around in this strange maze, instead of calmly looking for the exit of the maze like now.

  Moreover, the map of the maze seemed to be imprinted in his mind, and he even felt that he was more familiar with it than the guy who called himself “Luo Yi”.

  He vaguely realized something.

  In the whole event or copy, something actually traveled through time and affected the past and the future at the same time.

  It’s just that his mind is very confused now, and he hasn’t gotten rid of the feeling of time and space confusion, and he can’t organize the vague perception in his mind into language for the time being.

  But after all this is over, he will write this legendary experience on the forum and share it with other interested people.

  Not only this magical experience,

  but also the 3,000 crew members on the Orion missile cruiser, and the plan codenamed “Dawn”.

  History should have a page for them.

  At the moment when the long night was about to come, a group of people with ideals made the same choice –

  what they left behind in the face of death was hope.

  They left the chance to live to the living without hesitation.

  The only regret is that the promise of “reunion in 200 years” was finally broken…

  Just when Ye Shi couldn’t let it go for a long time, he suddenly noticed something floating up from the remains of the bionic man.

  It was a silver-white metal fragment with a circle of fine chains hanging on it.

  The bionic man had been holding it tightly in his palm before, and due to weightlessness and static interference, it floated out from the open fingers.

  Looking at the slowly floating metal fragments, Ye Shi suddenly felt his heart twitch.

  Almost subconsciously, he reached out and held it.

  It seemed to be an identity card, with a line of tiny words engraved on the front.

  [Sergeant Luo Yi]

  The moment he saw this line of words, Ye Shi felt his heartbeat slow down, and an unprecedented throbbing surged from his chest.

  They didn’t break their promise!

  They have always been here!

  They finally met!

  ”I didn’t expect… to meet like this.”

  Gradually understanding everything, Ye Shi wanted to take a deep breath and suppress the emotions that were gradually becoming unbearable, but found that he couldn’t breathe, so he could only hold the soldier card tightly in his palm.

  At this time, a weak signal floated out of the communication channel.

  This signal seemed to be sent by the scrapped bionic man.

  After being beaten up by himself, only the communication module on its body could still work.

  ”… Do you… know me?”

  Ye Shi didn’t want to pay attention to it, but this guy had already started talking to himself, so he replied impatiently.

  ”I don’t know you.”

  With its broken head drooping, it asked anxiously in a staccato voice.

  ”Then… do you know… the owner of this soldier card?”

  ”Yes.” Ye Shi said bluntly, “I met him once, he is a respectable man… completely different from a half-baked fake like you.”

  Hearing the word “fake”, the signal in the communication channel fluctuated slightly.

  It seemed to resist this word.

  However, nailed to the wall, it could do nothing except protest mentally.

  ”This is impossible… I… don’t know you.”

  ”Really? This just proves that you are a fake,” Ye Shi sneered and mocked, “I don’t know how Tianren got you out, but I think you can’t really have his memories except that you look exactly like Luo Yi.” The

  bionic man nailed to the wall couldn’t refute it.

  It really didn’t have that thing.

  ”Tianren” told it that its name was Luo Yi, with a rank of sergeant, and was a member of the Orion missile cruiser. Because of a rebellion, it became an electronic ghost without a body… There was nothing else.

  The part of memory it was missing was exactly what it had been trying its best to find.

  It wanted to be him!

  However, at this moment, it fell into unprecedented chaos.

  A young man who claimed to know Luo Yi stood in front of it, and it was just a fake.

  ”This doesn’t make sense… I… he… died 200 years ago. How could you know him? Are you lying to me? No, you must be lying to me…”

  ”Believe it or not.”

  Looking at this nagging guy, Ye Shi threw down this sentence impatiently.

  He had no obligation to explain to it, and he was too lazy to explain so much to this guy.

  However, the bionic man’s brain seemed to be broken, and fell into a cycle of self-doubt.

  After a while, it only muttered a sentence.

  ”…Who am I?”

  ”Ask yourself.”

  Ye Shi couldn’t help but complain and cut off the nagging signal source.

  If nothing unexpected happens, Jiang Xuezhou, whom he is looking for, should be on this strange spaceship in front of him.

  As for why she is here, I think she should tell me when she wakes up.

  At this time, the originally dark room suddenly lit up.

  Not only this room, but also the corridor outside, which was like a deep well, became bright.

  The sudden light was like a touch of white at dawn when the long night was about to end.

  At the same time, his communication module received an unfamiliar broadcast signal.

  It seemed to be sent by the central broadcast of the Orion missile cruiser.

  ”The system has been reset, and the new commander’s biometric information has been logged in. The note number… Captain Jiang Xuezhou, Executive Officer Ye Shi.”

  ”The reactor operation status has been checked, the low battery alarm has been lifted, and the power supply to the lower deck is being restored…

  ”The artificial gravity system is restarting… The ship will enter low gravity mode in 5 minutes. All units please prepare.”

  Hearing the gentle electronic sound, Ye Shi couldn’t help but feel a little happy.

  There is no doubt that

  it was Xuezhou’s work!

  Maybe it’s not just her –

  when he was fighting with Luo Yi’s clone, she successfully broke through the firewall of the Orion missile cruiser and took back the control of the starship that had fallen into the Lagrange point space station!

  ”Well done!”

  He couldn’t help but waved his clenched fist, and then an arc of electricity was released from his palm, and under the traction of electromagnetic force, it floated towards the spacecraft embedded in the hull armor. The

  half-closed hatch was pulled down by him effortlessly, but when he saw the bright red hibernation capsule, his heartbeat froze involuntarily.

  ”No——”

  The excitement fell to the bottom in an instant, and he threw himself on the hatch of the hibernation capsule in a daze.

  The hatch, which should have been transparent, was covered with a layer of red frost, and the edge of the hatch was even stained with blood that had just solidified.

  Anger instantly surged to his head, and he wanted to turn around and go back to the room just now to completely crush the fake that had been shattered into dregs!

  Just when Ye Shi was anxious, the recorder inserted next to the hibernation capsule suddenly caught his attention.

  Not just the recorder.

  Right next to the recorder, there were several frozen plastic bags on a silver metal tray.

  A note was attached to the plastic bag, and a line of scribbled words were written on the note.

  [Rescue needs to be carried out under normal temperature and pressure. Please close the cockpit door first, and manually open the emergency airlock of the landing craft cockpit according to the instructions in the recording. ]

  Everything seemed to be prepared.

  The key to open the door was placed where he could see.

  Just like the bag his mother prepared for him in advance when he went on a long journey for the first time.

  Without any hesitation, Ye Shi immediately turned back and closed the twisted and deformed hatch, and then ran to find the emergency airlock in the cockpit in a hurry.

  Unfortunately, he was a complete amateur in flying a spacecraft, and he couldn’t find the switch after searching for a long time. It was not

  until then that he suddenly remembered the recorder, so he obediently returned to the “Task Prompt”.

  At the moment when he pulled out the data cable from his neck and plugged it into the recorder, a familiar voice floated into his ears, causing his dazed consciousness to drift back to the stopped time and space.

  ”I don’t have much time, so I can only make it short. I hope you listen carefully…”

  ”About the method of thawing the hemostatic gel…”
