Time is racing against these four people.

Osius's words made Mo Ye think for a long time, and she couldn't understand what was going on with the bodies of these four people.

"No one else was affected?"

"No, there are only four of them, and the dormant cabin can only do basic physical testing and maintenance to maintain the operation of the body's functions, there are no wounds, no pain, only accelerated aging, and they continue to age at several times the rate. ”

It is absolutely impossible to coincidence that the four physical surgeons who are in good health, have physical skills at about the tenth level, and have excellent physiques have inexplicably begun to age in almost the same period of time, and various organs are constantly failing.

Mo Ye's mental power turned around the four of them, and there was nothing special to find, except for the weak fluctuations in mental power caused by deep sleep and aging, everything seemed extraordinary.

Soon, the results of the examination of the medical cabin appeared, and the examination data of the four people popped up on the light screen, as Osius said, there was no disease, no internal or external injuries were found, internal organs naturally failed, and the body functions were aging.

Everything was normal, except for their age estimates, which were very different from the actual situation.

Whether it is bone age or other means of testing, the data is almost the same, showing that these are four elderly people over 270 years old, and the data detection did not find abnormalities, normal abnormalities.

If these people are really old people who have come to the end of their lives soon, then these data are extremely ordinary and normal, birth, old age, sickness and death, and any living body needs to go through such a life process from fresh to withered and finally dead.

However, Oseus said that the real age of these people is not like this, they are young adults who are strong and have a lot of time, then such data is extremely abnormal.

Assuming that what Oshous said was true, it would be really difficult to explain what happened to these four people.

"Accelerated aging skills or diseases are not uncommon in the Star Alliance. ”

Yan An's words attracted Mo Ye's attention.

"Tell me about it. ”

"Some special attribute abilities can directly destroy genes when attacking, disrupting the operation of body functions through some hormones or other means to accelerate aging, and there are also some genes born with defects that will cause diseases that accelerate aging, but it is indeed very rare to age fast to this extent. ”

Mo Ye turned his gaze back to the four people lying in the medical cabin with their eyes closed, the youngest of them was already difficult to speak, even his breathing was extremely weak, and his tired and aging body had come to an end.

Without oxygen support, they can't even breathe freely.

"Is it possible that the Zerg?" After all, the Zerg Domain has been working on all kinds of weird genetic research, and it doesn't seem impossible if this is their newly developed attack method.

Another data analysis chart pops up on the light screen of the medical cabin, accompanied by an intelligent explanation: "No suspected parasites or viruses have been found, these are four healthy natural aging human bodies." ”

Mo Ye twisted his eyebrows and yawned, a little headache.

Turning his head to look at Osius on the side again, "Can you tell me about the situation at that time?"

Oshous nodded, at this time, Oshous was a little less arrogant and pompous than the last time he was in Takar City, the golden crown and scepter were taken off, and he did not have the habit of teasing beauties, and the whole person was like an old wine with a sealed lid on it, and he couldn't see the depth and only the light and long aroma of the wine overflowing.

It's a lot deeper and more introverted.

To be honest and honest, with the handsome appearance and slender and straight figure of Oshous Elf, such a restrained and deep temperament at this time invisibly adds a bit of convincing.

Mo Ye suddenly remembered the guard who had been following Osius like a shadow, but he didn't see the figure of that person.

Oshous nodded, "That's exactly what I mean." ”

Oshous didn't take the initiative to mention why they suddenly appeared in the Covenant, when they came, what their purpose was, and what happened to the planet Norseman.

Rather than Norsman's question, Ink Night was more interested in the black crack and how they managed to escape and survive.

On the night of Mo, Yan An and Oshous moved to the restaurant on the second floor of the Egg Cake, and of course it was at the table that they could pay attention to such an important matter.

"Our cargo ships have always been used to communicate trade between the Covenant and the Empire, and in order to avoid conflict with the Empire or the armies of either side of the Covenant and be drawn into war, we try to choose different interstellar lanes for each trip, and try to avoid patrolling teams. ”

Oshous took out a recorder, the size of a fingernail, and a small object that could be worn as an ornament on any part of his body, was activated and placed on the dining table.

Seconds later, a holographic star map appeared above the dining table.

"This is the route we were sailing on at the time, and the cargo ship was in this position before the incident. Osius pointed to the flashing green cursor in the star chart.

"The video content in the black box has not been edited, it is already the full version, only those, in order to improve the possibility of being rescued, the content of the cargo ship's black box is sent to the full range of the world, as long as the password can be parsed, you can see the content. ”

This also confirmed some of Mo Ye's previous speculations about that video, and sure enough, she was not the only one who knew that something happened to the black crack.

"That black crack, you've seen it with your own eyes, what is it?"

Oshous's expression froze and puzzled for a moment, as if he didn't know how to describe it accurately, and he was stunned for a while.

Mo Ye didn't urge, and beckoned to the kitchen to serve food.

The robot chef puts plate after plate of delicious food on the table.

The few people who followed Oshous sat upright, unmoved.

Mo Ye sighed slightly, if this is the one in his own family, I am afraid that there is nothing left to prepare for the second round.

Mo Ye slowly picked up the dishes, waiting for Osius to speak.

After a while, Oshous finally spoke, "No, you think it's a torn crack, a large spatial rift like a black hole that can devour everything?"

Mo Ye's eyebrows were slightly raised, the chopsticks holding the barbecued pork stopped in mid-air, and his eyes looked at Oshous, who was sitting directly opposite, "Huh?"

"Hehe," Oseus shook his head with a smirk, "No, it's a line, just a black line." ”

Okay, Oshous successfully threw the Master into the sea of question marks, and he was dizzy from the ups and downs of the question marks.

Slowly retract his hand and put the barbecued pork on the plate with chopsticks, and tap the plate, "What do you mean?"

Oshous took a breath, obviously recalling the image at that time was not a pleasant thing for him, his fingers curled up, his knuckles tapping lightly, and he paused for a moment before continuing, "It's not a gap, even though it looks like a black crack tearing the space on the video screen, but in reality, it's just a black line." ”

When talking about this, Mo Ye noticed that not only Oshous, but also several other people under his command were doing the same, and their mental power fluctuated and fluctuated to varying degrees.

"It's a scene I've never seen in my life, I've never imagined, and it's hard to describe accurately. Oshous lowered his head, and several low vibrations came out of his throat, as if laughing, but also indistinguishable.

"It's a black line, an infinite black line that stretches without bounds, and I'm pretty sure I'm right. Oshous said and pointed to the holographic star map, raising his hand to draw a black line in the void, "It's like a line like this, sometimes it's vertical, sometimes it's horizontal, I don't know how those changes came about, as if it was forbidden to move, but it could appear behind the ship for a split second." ”

"Everything it passes through is gone, it's not devoured, you don't see the planets or meteorites being swallowed by the cracks that have been torn apart, or you feel the strong pulling force and so on, it just appears. ”

Oshous raised his hand and pulled a black straight line in the air, "It just suddenly appeared, and then the area it passed through left nothing, everything disappeared as if it had never appeared." ”

There is nothing left.

Mo Ye and Yan An glanced at each other, both of them had too many doubts in their hearts, this matter might be more dangerous than they had estimated at the beginning.

"How did you get out?"

"Run?"

This time Oshous really smiled, the coldness on his handsome face as if it was beautifully carved melted for a moment, and the corners of his mouth rose in a mocking arc.

I'm still alive and well, and the escape pod has dodged the black cracks.... The devouring of the black line is intact until now, although later encountered the strange space zerg and almost died in the space drift.

All in all, survived, didn't it?

"Do you think an escape pod can escape a black line that even warships, mechs, and planets can't dodge?"

Oshous's expression was smiling, but it made people feel that it was more sad than crying, "It stopped. ”

"It's so incomprehensible, it suddenly stops, without warning, as if it had appeared before, without warning, suddenly appearing, suddenly disappearing. Osius picked up a knife and fork to cut the roast in front of him, "Lucky, isn't it?"

Mo Ye glanced at the other people sitting on either side of Oshous, they didn't say a word, and their mental power fluctuated but they were very consistent.

There were only nine of them in the escape pod, and four of them were in a strange state of aging, and the others on the starship didn't need to ask much, I am afraid that they were all bad luck.

"Only one escape pod succeeded?"

"Yes, the lucky ones are always in the minority, aren't they?"

This sentence is very reasonable, but at this moment it is obvious that Oseus is not happy with such a result.

"The entire starship, 1,638 people, only nine of us have survived until now, and the black line suddenly stopped, disappeared without a trace, without the slightest trace, together with the starry sky it passed by, there was nothing left, how lucky, how lucky. ”

Oshous's last words were almost murmuring.

It wasn't clear if it was lucky Mo Ye, but Mo Ye didn't show the slightest sense of comfort, and just said plainly, "Only by living can we figure out what is going on, and only then can we know where that black line took those starships and those people." ”

Oshous looked up and smiled, "Of course, I will definitely find out, and that's why I found you." ”

"When did the aging of those four warriors begin?"

"After the black line disappeared, the aging rate was very fast, and after a few hours we realized that something was wrong, and tried all the methods that could be tried in the escape pod, but it still failed to stop this aging, sending them to the frozen hibernation pod was our last resort, but it still didn't work, it only slowed down the aging rate a little, and aging became an irreversible trend in their bodies. ”

Oshous started the recorded video, and the four people were lying in the sleeping pod, and the originally youthful and bright muscles gradually grew into layers of folds.

Mo Ye also noticed this, and the only people who slept in the frozen hibernation pod were the four people.

Yan An, who had been quiet, suddenly spoke, "Did anything happen, during this period, why did only those four people have premature aging, is there anything special?"

"Or did you encounter other attacks after that, such as clinging to the Zerg on the shell of the escape pod. ”

"No, the aging of the four of them has nothing to do with what happened later, when the black line appeared, the most special point is that the four of them were responsible for launching the escape pod, and they were the last people to enter the escape pod, which is the only difference I can think of. ”

If psychic power sensing hadn't deceived Moye, then what Oseus had said so far was true.

"But how can you be so sure that this must have something to do with the black line, maybe it's some kind of special space zerg?" Yan An asked.

Oshous's attitude was too determined.

"This isn't the first time I've seen a case of Progeria like this. ”

Mo Ye held the soup bowl and drank the refreshing pumpkin soup spoonful by spoonful, waiting for Osius's next words.

Underneath the casual and careless laziness is the concentration of undivided attention.

"On the Norsman Star. ”

"Starships, aircraft, satellites disappear mysteriously, and the appearance of Progeria symptoms is not very common, and I wouldn't have connected them if it weren't for the situation I have now. ”

"There is also such a black line on the Norman Star?" Yan An was extremely surprised by this.

The doubts and uneasiness in Mo Ye's heart have aggravated again, what is the appearance of the black line, and is there any rule to follow?

Why did even the Norsman, a place far away from the Covenant and blocked by a spatial barrier, appear, what was it, what purpose was it, was it man-made or just an unavoidable natural disaster?

"There have been many similar incidents in various parts of the Star Alliance, including the Weilan Empire, but there have never been survivors and there is no premature aging......" Yan An said as he suddenly stopped, and he looked at Mo Ye.

Mo Ye noticed Yan An's eyes, and also remembered that the reappeared starship of the Weilan Empire, the old and corrupted corpse in the starship, seemed to be a battleship that had passed through an unknown number of years.

It's not a disease, it's not a virus, it's not a zerg, it's an injury, what if it's just that the flow of time has accelerated?
