Chapter 190: Life and Death

An Liya, Cruise, and Zhou Xiaoming all made statements, and now, only Zhao Lan is still silent. So the eyes of the three of them looked at Zhao Lan together.

Zhao Lan woke up from his contemplation and smiled lightly at the three of them: "In that case, what else is there to say, let's start accelerating, we can use a spaceship as our coffin, the explosion of a high-yield hydrogen bomb as our funeral flowers, and this infinite sea of stars as our graveyard after we die, we ...... What else is there to find fault with. ”

The atmosphere in the maintenance cabin immediately relaxed. An Liya and the three of them looked at each other and smiled, Zhou Xiaoming took the lead in stretching out his palm, Cruise followed, An Liya was third, and Zhao Lan did not hesitate at all, and also stretched out his hand. So the four palms were tightly clasped together.

"With your company, this Huangquan Road is not lonely." Zhou Xiaoming sighed. An Liya smiled and said, "Not to mention not being lonely, if there is really a netherworld, the name of our adventurer team will also spread in the netherworld." ”

"Count me in." Zhao Lan also smiled and said, "If you have a chance, I would like to ask your boss to see if your adventurer team is willing to accept new members." ”

"The three of us can decide this." Cruise said with great seriousness, "We have decided to accept you as the fifth member of our adventurer squad. As for the boss...... I'm sure the boss will be happy for you to join us. ”

"Zhao Lan, welcome to join us." Zhou Xiaoming and An Liya said in unison.

"Well, from now on, we're teammates." Zhao Lan said. "It's a pity that there is no alcohol here. We can't celebrate. ”

Zhao Lan is the kind of good girl in the usual sense. I haven't drunk alcohol since I was born, and I don't know what it tastes like. But now I don't know why, Zhao Lan suddenly had a strong desire in his heart, wanting to take a glass of wine, take a sip of it, and feel the legendary knife slashing through his throat.

"Who says there is no wine?" Cruise said mysteriously, and then groped with his hand in his arms, waiting for it to come out. There was a flat steel flask in his hand. Cruise shook the flask to his ear and said, "There's still more than half left, enough to drink." ”

An Liya immediately raised her eyebrows: "Bald! You guy, how many times have I said that you are not allowed to carry alcohol on missions! Say! How much did you steal during this mission?! ”

Cruise looked a little embarrassed, and seemed to have turned red on the top of his head: "Just drank a little...... Just a little. You know, when you don't have alcohol at work, you can't lift your spirits. ”

"Where is there so much nonsense." Zhou Xiaoming said, directly snatched the wine jug from Cruise's hand and unscrewed the lid. Then he raised his head and took a big sip. Then he wiped his mouth and shouted: "Cool! ”

"Leave me some!" Cruise screamed, then snatched the flask and took a big sip as well. Before the flask was put down, An Liya snatched it into her hand, took a big sip, and then said, "Come on, I will also break the rules once today." ”

After An Liya finished drinking, she naturally handed the wine jug to Zhao Lan. Zhao Lan took it without hesitation, then raised his head and poured the remaining half of the wine jug into his mouth. Then Zhao Lan felt as if there was a flame from his mouth all the way to his stomach, and it seemed that the whole person began to burn.

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Lan began to cough violently, and shouted without a ladylike temperament while coughing: "Good wine, really good wine, it turns out that wine is so delicious." ”

Looking at Zhao Lan's appearance, An Liya and the three laughed together, Zhao Lan patted her chest and began to laugh.

After a while, the laughter stopped, and the people were still the same four people, but the feeling to Zhao Lan was completely different. Zhao Lan lost her parents when she was a child, and since then she has been living alone, and she has no friends, and she has long been used to the taste of loneliness, but now Zhao Lan feels very warm in her heart. For the first time, Zhao Lan felt that she was not alone.

"Alright, let's get to work, while the pursuers haven't caught up yet, let's hurry to that space node......"

In the vast universe, with the huge blue planet as the background, the tail of this small spaceship spewed bright blue flames, and began to move towards the infinite sea of stars in front of it.

That space node is two million kilometers away from Earth. Of course, this distance is a straight line, and it is obviously impossible for a ship to travel in a straight line while sailing. Zhao Lan had already calculated the course in advance, and the final conclusion was that the spacecraft needed to travel a distance of 2.3 million kilometers to reach that space node. And with the ship's power system, it would have to sail for at least another three hours to get there.

The maximum speed of the existing combat spacecraft of the human government military is about 200 kilometers per second, and it will take at least four hours to catch up with this hydrogen bomb spacecraft, including the time required for acceleration and deceleration. This means that, in theory, the pursuers will not have an impact on the hydrogen bomb ship. The only thing to consider is that the spacecraft that was originally near the space node received an interception order to intercept itself. However, although human civilization has entered the interstellar age, the total number of spaceships is actually very small, and it is basically impossible for a combat spaceship with interception capabilities to exist there.

However, the speed of a radio signal is the speed of light. So, when the hydrogen bomb spacecraft began to accelerate under the command of Zhao Lan, the signal receiving equipment received information from the military. The wording in the message was harsh and the attitude was tough.

"Zhao Lan! Ann Liya! Cruise! Zhou Xiaoming! Listen, four of you! The ship that is chasing you has already departed, and it will only take a few hours to catch up with you, and there is no chance of you escaping! Stop your senseless attempts to resist and flee at once, surrender immediately, and we promise that the court will judge you fairly and justly! ”

"If you try to resist, we will take coercive measures, and may even use ship-based weapons to destroy your ship! Give up resistance, give up resistance, surrender now, surrender now! ”

Zhao Lan glanced at the communication instrument that kept coming out of the voice, shrugged his shoulders, and directly reached out to turn it off, so the maintenance cabin was quiet again.

"Don't worry, they won't attack this ship until the last resort, I've dealt with them many times, and I know their style of behavior very well." Zhao Lan said.

"Do you think they're idle...... I know that we will not surrender, but we always waste our tongues, and we don't waste our saliva. An Liya snorted coldly.

"Who knows? Maybe it's a habit. Zhou Xiaoming interjected.

All the sailing parameters have been set, the spacecraft has entered the automatic sailing mode, and everyone is idle. So in addition to the navigation information that Zhou Xiaoming would report every once in a while, the maintenance cabin was quiet again.

It's okay if you're busy all the time, at least you don't have the time to think about anything else, and it's different once you're free. Perhaps because of the influence of Fang Cai's big sip of wine, Zhao Lan felt that his thoughts were very chaotic at the moment.

Zhao Lan had no doubt about the firmness of his heart, but ...... Dying with this spaceship and destroying it in this sea of stars is just a choice of last resort, if you can live, who would want to die?

But...... Even if you don't want to die, what can you do?

Zhao Lan came to the porthole and began to stare at the dark galaxy outside the porthole. At this moment, Zhao Lan remembered many things, including the warm picture of being with his parents when he was a child, the picture of being bullied and crying alone in the corner after being bullied in school, the high-spirited spirit of getting his ideal job after graduation, and the anger when he was wronged and molested by scum......

These many pictures have been flashing in Zhao Lan's mind. It was only now that Zhao Lan realized that in this life, he seemed to have many things he had not experienced, and he had not even talked about a relationship.

Zhao Lan wanted to make a list of these things, one by one, to take stock of what else he hadn't experienced, but after only trying for a while, Zhao Lan gave up this idea. Because there are so many things that he has not experienced, Zhao Lan himself has no way to count these things clearly.

Zhao Lan suddenly remembered something that seemed to be somewhat unrelated, that is...... I haven't bought the beautiful dress I liked a long time ago. At first, I thought that I would buy it when I had paid my salary and had the money to spare, and like most women, I fantasized about how beautiful I would be in that dress, but then a series of things happened, and I didn't have it in the end. Originally, this matter had been forgotten by Zhao Lan, but now I don't know why it appeared in his mind again.

"It's a pity...... I've never had a chance to wear it in my life. Zhao Lan sighed silently in her heart.

"There is still an hour to go until we get to the intended location." At this moment, Zhou Xiaoming's voice came, interrupting Zhao Lan's thoughts, "According to the current speed, the pursuers will sail to this space node in an hour and a half." Well, they can't catch up with us. By the time they arrived, our ship had already exploded. ”

"Is there a time difference of half an hour...... Zhao Lan thought silently, and suddenly, a thought suddenly flashed in Zhao Lan's mind. Zhao Lan immediately turned around, and because he was too excited, Zhao Lan's face turned red.

"Perhaps...... We don't have to die, I think, I have a way......" (To be continued......
