Chapter 425: Gray Star
readx;
A scene that lasted less than an hour made Gu Hanhan sweat coldly, pressed his hand on the controller, and wanted to turn off the monitoring several times. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The life of the Acropolis and the Lighthouse Star is like a flash of light, and the most civilian place Gu Hanhan has ever been to is the university town. She knew that the noble mansions of the Acropolis and their estates on the Beacon Star were home to a large number of slaves, that almost every country in the universe, whether monarchical or republican, approved and encouraged slave ownership, and that the Vault Dweller's trading market handled billions of slaves every day, and that she now had five hundred slaves in her family. She knew that life as a slave would never be easy—but that was it.
Whether it was at home, or in the Acropolis or somewhere else, the slaves she came into contact with were all high-level, personal valets, high-ranking maids, Mr. housekeepers, these people were all around her all day long, and no matter David or Anthony or any other high-level superpowered nobles she had seen, even Su Yu, who she thought was the most like a slave owner, they never moved a finger of these slaves, and they didn't even speak ill of each other - at least not in front of Gu Hanhan.
The tradition of segregation of the noble and lowly of the Acropolis aristocracy and even the entire Beacon Star high society allowed Gu Hanhan to see with his own eyes only the most glamorous and flashy side of the high-ranking slave, and the shadow of the other side as a slave was always shrouded in huge obscurity-
And the scene in front of him is like tearing off the last fig leaf under the skirt of the noblewoman, and the sin and ugliness are exposed to the sun. The glitz faded, the thick fog of shadows dissipated, and the most miserable side of the slave as a class was presented in front of Gu Hanhan in this straightforward way, hitting Gu Hanhan's heart in one fell swoop, making her speechless for a long time.
"Let's go, Hanhan. ”
David threw a backpack into the escape pod, then turned around and pulled Gu Hanhan's hand. Gu Hanhan was pulled onto the escape pod by David, but it wasn't until the escape pod ejected the spaceship that she was relieved from that sad and inexplicable emotion.
"What's going on?" she looked left and right in surprise, "where are we going, not on a boat." ”
David was trying to control the escape pod according to the instructions, and the instructions were spread out on the console in his hand. He studied as he pressed the button on the console. Hearing this, Gu didn't look back, but just replied to Gu Hanhan: "Go to the gray star, in the northwest of the Diana Star Field." The Gordon ship has now brought us to Diana's field, and we must go by ourselves here, and we can't take another hitchhiker. The Gordon family's training camp is in the southwest, and the orientation is very different. ”
Gu Hanhan opened his mouth, and was about to speak, when suddenly several light spots jumped out of the monitor, showing that there was a dead light coming from behind. Immediately, it turned into an exclamation: "Energy cannon!
"I know!" David pursed his lips, his fingers slamming on the.
The escape pod was able to avoid the death, but soon more shelling was fired, and the mobile battery on the side of the Gordon slave ship floated up, and the death light covered their escape boat in the center in a three-dimensional cross. The distribution of energy on the monitor stack reveals an extremely terrifying sight.
"The slave traders of the Gordon family are beating us, David!" Gu Hanhan cried, "and they will not be able to rest when they find out that we have stolen their ship." ”
"This can't be, this escape pod is shielded by my energy field, it's completely invisible on the probe, they can't see it at all! There must be some other reason!" David hurriedly pressed the button on the console while hurriedly flipping through the instruction manual.
Article 37, anti-shielding system. David carried the book in one hand and only showed it to Gu Hanhan, "I know, it's the qualitative balance of the spacecraft." The mass of the escape pod was unbalanced after it broke away, so they knew. They can't see us, but they can attack according to the preset trajectory of the escape pod—"
Gu Hanhan didn't want to hear it at all. "Look up there, there's a shot coming to us!left!right!left!left!!!!!
David continued to flip through the instructions: "We're going to have to change it to full manual mode, and then get out of the preset track and out of the dead light-"
However, seeing David's hurried appearance of grinding his gun, especially compared with Anthony's majestic appearance when he was playing the game, Gu Hanhan was very uncertain about whether David could complete the so-called "change it to full manual mode, and then break away from the preset track and pass out of the dead light".
"Do you need my help......" she asked tremblingly. She was really nervous under the shroud of death.
"Yes!" David said immediately, "help me hold on to this lever, and press this, this one doesn't move—"
Gu Hanhan pressed down the operating lever with one hand according to David's command, and pinched at least five buttons with the other hand, facing the artillery fire coming from all directions, the tendons all over his body were straightened, and his muscles were so stiff that he couldn't move at all. The rest is all in David's hands.
However, just like Gu Hanhan didn't know the bottom, David used ten fingers of his two hands, and added Gu Hanhan's two hands, and the four hands were stunned that they couldn't play with this small escape pod. It flew up and down in the dead light, like a headless fly, and several times the dead light was rubbed against the skin, and to be honest, it was all due to luck that it had not crashed until now. Gu Hanhan's stomach was turned upside down, if it weren't for the time to vomit earlier.
The rescue pod rolled ugly under the control of the two of them, and then plunged headlong into the dense artillery fire, and at the same time there were at least a dozen dead lights shooting at the cabin, and there was nowhere to hide. Gu Hanhan propped himself up on the console, his eyes were straight, and he shouted vigorously, "David!
"Fuck it!" David pushed his hands on the console, completely giving up control. Immediately afterward, a huge energy disturbance radiated from the center of his body, and the dead light diffused in the cosmic space turned around at the muzzle of the cannon, shooting towards the zenith, converging into a dazzling small sun.
Gu Hanhan let out a long sigh of relief and lay on the console, feeling that he was tired and paralyzed. She said, "David, we're really useless. It is better to use energy early than to know it early, and it will save people shame. ”
David was visibly relieved as well. "Sometimes I really can't understand how their combat system can control such a complex mecha combat boat on the battlefield, with ten fingers. He said to Gu Hanhan, "Of course, I don't understand it now." ”
Under the control of David's pure spiritual power, the escape boat quickly moved away from the slave ship of the Gordon family. Gu Hanhan looked back at the shining little sun in the direction of the ship's zenith, and couldn't help but burst into tears.
"You're such a good man, David," she said, "that if a bastard had done this, the dead light would have not been deflected by 90 degrees, but turned 180 degrees, and returned to the muzzle." ”
David was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Thank you for reminding me, Hanhan, when I go to the battlefield in the future, I must think about turning them 180 degrees." ”
The escape pod was finally put back into automatic mode. According to the coordinates provided by David, it landed on a gray planet after flying for three hours in automatic cruise mode.
The time on this planet is still night. The hatch opened, and a dry wind blew in with a special smell. Gu Hanhan was just about to go down, but was caught by David.
"Be careful, it's all lava ash outside, and if you don't pay attention, you'll sink in. ”
He grabbed Gu Hanhan's arm and jumped out of the escape pod, and the energy field spread out under his feet, supporting them from directly touching the surface.
The earth was gray and cloudy, and it was an endless stretch of lava ash. The light of the three moons shone down from the sky, illuminating the gray earth like a silver desert. At the end of the horizon, there are several tall volcanoes, all still alive, fiery red lava like a lighthouse in the night, and white smoke rising from the top.
"Gray Star is less than 70 percent similar to Earth - all the planets chosen for training camp are not very similar to Earth, and planets similar to their parent planets have never been fertile ground for superpowers. It's hard for humans to survive, but it's just the planet that just can't die. David said to Gu Hanhan: "Gray Star is full of active volcanoes, and one-third of the earth's surface is covered with this lava ash. The gravity of the planet is 1.5 times that of the earth, there is no rainfall, the main component of the air is sulfur, and the oxygen content is very low, so it is difficult for normal humans to survive here before the transformation. ”
"This planet is the training camp for the Duran family. The first training I did here was in this lava swamp – the lava on the surface of the gray star would be hundreds of meters thick, fluffy, and gravitational so strong that if you stepped on it, you would sink like you were stuck in a swamp. That's why we all call it the man-eating ash swamp. David bent down and felt in the lava ash for a while, and found an emerald. He smiled and said, "The only interesting thing is that there are a lot of gems in the rock ash, and the colors are all beautiful." ”
The shape of the emerald is very irregular, the surface is somewhat rough, and it is simply ugly to hold in David's beautiful hand. But after David cut off one-third of its surface and polished it smooth, the dazzling brilliance emanated from the inside, and the beauty was intoxicating. David punched a hole at one end of it, pulled a thin chain with the metal at the bottom of the cufflinks, and threaded it and hung it around Gu Hanhan's neck.
"Let's go and have a look on the other side. "There's an oasis over there, there's a small town, and there's a base for the training camp." I'll take you to see where I've lived before. Heber said they were still there, but after all these years, I hadn't been back to see them once. ”
David picked up Gu Hanhan and led her slowly towards the back of the volcano. They flew over vast vastness of rock-ash swamps, over magma-tumbling active craters. Finally, it landed halfway up the southern foothills.
At the foot of the mountain is a magnificent city, majestic and magnificent, like a monument to the conquest of the universe by mankind in the era of great voyages. The city, which stretches for hundreds of kilometers, is shrouded in a huge ecological cover, and in the center of the city, a glass building in the shape of a pine tower rises from the ground, beyond the top of a volcano and into the sky, towering and tall like a tower of Babel.
