Chapter 32: Under the Sea of Stars

"Simple", these two words make Linling and the system look at each other.

The easy difficulty in the last world left a lasting impression on both.

But compared to the interface that doesn't even have an introduction to the world in the beginner quest, this quest is really much milder.

At least there is a general direction.

As long as the human side is investigated first, it will be fine.

But this has to be done within humanity first.

She looked into the distance to the central battlefield where flames and beams of light intertwined.

The bones of human soldiers are piled up everywhere, and the sound of gunfire and roars continues throughout the land.

The charred black on the ground is also the mark of all kinds of burns.

A soft clay-like alien approached Lin Ling from behind.

Lin Ling pulled out the gun inserted in the spider alien skull, and pulled the trigger backwards without looking back on her shoulder.

The beam instantly drowned out the monsters that tried to sneak up.

A scorching smell came from behind her, causing Linling to move her position slightly.

"It's almost time to retreat." Lin Ling looked at the gradually shrinking formation not far away, hung the system on the side of her outer armor on the combat uniform, and ran towards the large army.

Her mind was still integrating the memories of the original owner of the identity, but most of them had been corrupted, presumably because of the pain of death.

However, Lin Ling still learned the basic situation of the battle.

It's just an invasion journey of "alien creatures".

But compared to the "alien creatures" who are naturally powerful, humans are obviously much more vulnerable.

Even with the help of high technology, the human death rate is quite high.

This is a rather sad fact.

For now, the campaign is also a delaying tactic to protect the retreat of the population.

A death tactic made of flesh and blood.

Lin Ling looked at the signal line that shot into the sky in the distance, stepped over the bones all over the ground, sighed and ran towards the retreat line in the memory of the original owner.

The crowd began to retreat gradually, and some of the team members who were already preparing for death began to stay behind and use heavy cannons to strafe the monster tide.

"Hurry up!"

Standing in the spaceship cabin looking at Lin Ling, who was the last to run over, the captain with only one eye tried to reach out and pull Lin Ling onto the spaceship.

But as soon as he pulled Lin Ling's collar, he felt a sinking in his hand, as if he was lifting something in a few tons, and his strength was completely useless.

He wanted to tell the recruit to throw away the things he didn't need, but he saw the man jump onto the cabin as nimbly as if nothing was happening.

[There are a few more people in the back!] Seeing the hatch about to close, the system hurriedly said to the officer.

The results caught everyone's attention.

"Take care of your machine."

The one-eyed captain looked at Lin Ling's words, frowned and said.

This is not because the words of the system are wrong, but because of the instinctive rejection of the combat robot as a weapon of war as a combatant who has been fighting on the front line for a long time.

He looked at the vast sea of monsters in the distance and the fading flames and beams of light, gritted his teeth, "Let's go!" Take off now! ”

He knew that there were people like the broken corpses on the ground, who would never come back.

So the rest, he had to bring back.

The sound of the ship's engine starting, and the wind and waves caused by the liftoff hung on the surrounding land, rolling up layers of dust and sand.

Lin Ling sat in a chair and fastened her seat belt between her body.

She looked back at the window, at the figure drowning in the waves in the distance, and turned her head expressionlessly.

The silence spread through the spaceship, and all the soldiers present had some scars on their bodies, but she was the only one with torn combat uniforms.

Some people bowed their heads and were silent, and some people stared at the strange combination of Lin Ling and the system.

Among those eyes, there is an extreme rejection of the system as a combat robot, and it seems that the system is not popular from the performance just now.

Others, their eyes were full of questioning, staring at Lin Ling's unscarred appearance.

The man sitting in front of Lin Ling was one of them.

Lin Ling looked at him and noticed that everyone had obvious characteristics of wounds.

She probably understood that she was being treated like a deserter.

Holding the system in her arms and blocking the man's view, Lin Ling gently placed her hand above her waist.

Afterwards...... The system, which was thinking about whether he had said something wrong, suddenly heard a "click" sound.

Crisp and very obvious came from Lin Ling.

Lin Ling withdrew the hand that had broken her ribs, and blood was left from the corner of her mouth.

"Cough ......" In order to be more real, Lin Ling also forcibly coughed a few times, so that the blood gushing out of the throat directly coughed up to her hands.

She covered her mouth and lowered her head slightly, blood dripping from between her fingers.

The eyes around him froze for a moment, and they retracted in a hurry.

Even the man opposite lowered his head guiltily.

It seems that at this moment, everyone understands their misunderstanding of being partial and comprehensive.

And everyone didn't notice Lin Ling's smile hidden under her fingers.

He had been lying on his back with the system in Lin Ling's arms, staring at his host numbly like a square.

In a sense, it feels like it's a pity that this woman doesn't act.

And it is guaranteed that the performance is absolutely real.

But it didn't dare to say it directly, so it could only complain secretly in its heart.

The mood that was still a little depressed was also completely disappeared by Lin Ling at this time, it looked at the people around it, and the sweeping gaze made the soldiers fixed on the seats feel inexplicable.

Alas...... What a bunch of simple boys who are easily deceived.

The system shook its head and shrank into Lin Ling's arms.

"Attention, the curvature jump is about to begin, please fasten your seatbelts and close your eyes. At the same time, please secure the small items in your hand to the socket next to you to prevent casualties in non-war time. ”

"Again, the curvature jump is about to take place, so please fasten your seatbelts and close your eyes. At the same time, please secure the small items in your hand to the socket next to you to prevent casualties in non-war time.

The spaceship AI sent out a reminder on the radio, and the soft female voice eased the originally oppressive atmosphere a little.

People fasten the gun in their arms to the socket of the seat.

Lin Ling did the same, and at the same time stuffed the system into it.

[......] The small ball glared at Lin Ling with a protesting expression, and what she got was a subtle shrug from the latter.

Fortunately, no one paid attention to this scene.

Lin Ling tightened her seat belt a few more points, leaned back on the seat, and looked up at the orderly metal parts of the spaceship cabin.

She felt the vibrations coming from beneath her, and didn't close her eyes like the others.

A blinding halo of light bloomed out of the ship's window at that moment.

The distorted scene of time and space caused by the curvature shuttle was spread all over the spaceship at that moment, and the bizarre scene seemed to tear everything apart, and the indescribable splendor infected the entire space.

After a few glances, the system felt the burning of its own vision device, and hurriedly turned off the external vision program.

Unlike the system, Lin Ling always looked out the window at the gorgeous scene, but there was no reflection in her orange eyes.

She watched, then sighed silently and closed her eyes.

And in the direction she had looked, in the chaotic time and space, there was a huge figure flashing here.
