Chapter Sixty-Six: The Star of Death
Cheng Shi saw that the sea water of the entire mermaid planet was gray-black, and a few small convex pieces looked like land, but they were black crystals, and there were many black crystals floating in the ocean, and the whole planet was dead and silent, and there was no life in sight, and it was even a little terrifying.
Although there are occasional huge waves rolling, these waves are mixed with those black crystals, which reminds people of how dangerous it would be if a ship were moored on the surface of the sea.
"It's horrible, that kind of thing has destroyed the entire planet." North looked at the mermaid mother planet as if talking to himself, and looked surprised.
Cheng Shi heard this, looked at North and asked, "North, what was the state of that thing you said when it first attacked your mermaids?" Or how did the merfolk react after being attacked? ”
North thought for a moment, then said, "The merfolk who were attacked died in pain, not so much because they were killed by this thing, but because they committed suicide. Noston paused, and the other three cast puzzled glances at her, "The upper body of the mermaid is made of water, and it is difficult to really die in the ocean, but after being attacked by that thing, the mermaid is first mentally lethargic, and then the lower body begins to fester, until it is completely rotten, the whole process is very painful, it will take about half a month, and when the lower body disappears, the upper body is forced to turn into water and be reborn, and the reborn mermaid begins to automatically grow the lower body, but in the process of growth, it will festering from time to time, and it will continue to circulate, Later, many mermaids couldn't endure this repeated torture, so they chose to commit suicide, it is very difficult for mermaids to kill themselves, so we created a mermaid self-destruction device, almost similar to the coffin of your earth humans, mermaids who want to commit suicide will enter this device on their own, and after the upper body of the mermaid lying inside turns into water, it will not be in contact with the ocean, and life will naturally not recycle, and in the end there is only death. North shook his head and sighed.
Cheng Shi and the three of them fell into a long silence after listening to the statement of the mermaid North, although they did not witness what kind of miserable life those mermaids who were attacked by biological weapons, but just by imagining, they knew how terrifying it was, at this moment Yang Yang's stunned expression seemed to be petrified, and Barbara was also wooden.
"Is this how your queen left you?" Cheng Shi thought for a long time, but still asked the question he didn't dare to ask.
Although the experience of the mermaids was very tragic, it had been a long time since then, and North was relieved to tell those stories from a long time ago while reminiscing, but North was a little surprised when he saw Cheng Shi with a solemn expression, and felt that Cheng Shi seemed to care about their queen very much.
"The experience of our queen is the most tragic, she has experienced nearly a hundred rebirths, personally supervised the construction of our Provence escape spaceship, until the day we took off, hundreds of times of body ulceration and torture, which requires a strong will, which is also the main reason why my mother enjoys a high reputation in the mermaid kingdom, I still clearly remember that the moment our spaceship took off that day, she stood on the sea and waved goodbye to us, I didn't see her lying in the self-destruction device, and I couldn't bear to look at it, she was selfless, We are our queen who deserves eternal respect. North looked at Cheng Shi and said calmly, although it had been so long, she could still see the pride on her face.
When North said that their queen had been reborn hundreds of times, Barbara and Yang Yang's bodies shivered, while Cheng Shi barely held on, maintaining his apparent composure.
After North finished speaking, there was a prolonged silence in the cockpit of the ship.
After another while, after Cheng Shi calmed down, he opened his mouth to break the silence.
"Xiaoqiao, open the shield, get close to those black crystals, and check what those things are?" Cheng Shi sat on the captain's seat and said in a normal tone.
The shield of the Kate Eagle was quietly opened, Cheng Shi saw that the four wings of the spaceship lit up with blue outline lights slightly, and the spaceship immediately moved forward, and after a while, it came to a large black crystal, Cheng Shi saw that this was the appearance of a spaceship, this spaceship was roughly in a V-shaped structure, very much like a spaceship made by intelligent beings who had just entered the space civilization, but now the entire spaceship has been completely covered by black crystals, and the outline of the spaceship can only be vaguely seen.
"Master, this ship has scanned this object covered with black crystal, it should be a spaceship, it is hollow inside, this ship has sampled the black crystal and is analyzing." The sound of the information bridge came from inside the cockpit.
"Xiaoqiao, is there any way to get into the interior of the ship?" Cheng Shi asked with some doubts.
"Master, this ship has done a material analysis of the crystals, this is the crystalline stone left after being attacked by the cosmic rule weapon, but why it is evenly distributed on a spaceship, this ship cannot speculate for the time being, in addition, the crystalline stone is very strong, it is difficult to cut it, if you want to enter the spaceship, you can only blow it up." Infobridge said in a normal tone.
Cheng Shi was both a little surprised and felt expected when he heard the information bridge mention the rule weapon, he thought to himself that the mermaid is an undead race, it is difficult for ordinary weapons to completely destroy them, including biological weapons, because the lower half of their body can grow back after resurrection, and the mermaid planet that he sees now is obviously completely destroyed, so it can only be a rule weapon.
"Small bridge, blow up a gap along the corner of the spaceship, try to minimize the damage to the spaceship, there may be important clues inside." Cheng Shi said cautiously.
"Okay!" The information bridge simply replied that it may have fired for the first time after transforming into a spaceship, and he was a little excited.
I only heard the sound of gurgling in the spaceship, and then a white light emitted from the center of one of the wings in front of the right side of the Kate Eagle, and this white light seemed to be a sharp blade, cutting off a corner of the V-shaped spaceship in front of it, and the Kate Eagle immediately sailed forward and adjusted the direction, scanning the incision, Cheng Shi saw the part that was cut, and he could already see the inside of the spaceship.
"Xiaoqiao, if we get out of the spaceship, do we have to wear that set of life-support clothes?" Cheng Shi asked in the air.
"Yes, master, but you have to read the instructions first, the operation is not complicated." The information bridge replied.
Cheng Shi heard the sound and came to the rear compartment of the hexagonal spaceship, North and Barbara also followed, and Yang Yang walked timidly at the end, after being tortured by that clothes last time, she wanted to stay away from that kind of clothes.
After Cheng Shi looked through the instructions, he found that the operation was really not complicated, he found that in the drawer containing clothes, there was a low cylinder, a drawer can be opened on one side of this cylinder, just put the clothes into this drawer, and then stand on the cylinder to automatically put it on, if you want to take it off after use, you can automatically take it off when you stand back on the cylinder, Yangyang's previous wrong operation of directly opening the clothes is used in an emergency state, put on clothes in this state, The default is that you can only take off your clothes by cutting.
After figuring out how to use it, Cheng Shi tried it himself, he put a piece of clothing into the drawer of the cylinder, and then stood on it, and the clothes were successfully put on his body, and the others found that after Cheng Shi put on the clothes, it was completely different from Yangyang's clothes, and they saw that Cheng Shi's clothes and skin seemed to have crossed a layer of transparent yarn, and they couldn't even see it if they didn't look carefully, and then Cheng Shi pressed his neck, and the whole head was immediately covered with this layer of yarn.
"Try it, you don't feel the presence of this garment at all." Cheng Shi reversed his left and right hands, looked at his clothes that didn't seem to exist, and said casually.
Barbara and North also put on their clothes when they heard the sound, and the result was the same feeling as Cheng Shi.
Yang Yanghu looked at the three of them suspiciously, still skeptical, and didn't dare to try.
"Yangyang, we're going out to explore that mermaid spaceship, if you don't want to go, just wait for us in the spaceship, and we'll be back soon." Cheng Shi said when he saw Yang Yang standing on the side.
"No, you can't leave me alone in the ship, I'm going too." Yang Yang replied immediately.
Cheng Shi looked at Yang Yang, then shook his head to look at the cylinder on the ground, and motioned for her to hurry up and get dressed.
In the end, Yang Yang stood on the cylinder under the gaze of the three people, and her body shook and came down, she looked at it and found that her life support clothes were the same as everyone's, so she smiled at the three and stuck out her tongue.
"Let's go out and have a look." Cheng Shi said and motioned for the three of them to follow him to the hatch of the spaceship, "Xiaoqiao, open the hatch." Cheng Shi said as he stood at the door of the spaceship.
The hatch of the spacecraft opened silently, and the four of them immediately stepped out of the hatch and flew into space.
It is said that the set of life-support clothes they wore is really high-tech, which can lead it to fly forward according to the user's thoughts, and the four of them have mastered the skills of using it after a little adaptation in space.
After the four of them got out of the cabin, the Kate Eagle immediately transformed into a ship model and followed Cheng Shi, and they soon came to the incision of the mermaid spaceship that had been cut, and smoothly entered the spaceship.
However, as soon as they entered, the black crystal covering the outside of the ship quietly closed the entrance.
