Chapter 15: The Siege of Deep Space!

There is no exact record of when this group of forces appeared, and the records about it are all accompanied by intrigues intertwined with blood and fire, they are like a group of hyenas wandering in the universe, but wherever they can smell the smell of profit and blood, they can always find clues behind them.

No one knows where their nests are, or if they don't have a fixed nest at all, or what purpose they have.

Sometimes they look like a mess of loose sand, like ordinary star thieves as a cameo robber, and when they are in a good mood, they will tell you about the salute before the soldiers, as long as they take the most valuable item of the merchant group, it may be a main gun, or it may be the most valuable frigate in the merchant group.

But sometimes, they are like wolves under the full command behind the scenes, and they can always play the role of the second fuse or the role of a stab in the back in some historical events.

This repugnable habit finally led them to kick an iron plate four thousand years ago, the Spark Council.

I don't know what kind of basket the Sakura Association poked, so that the Spark Council directly issued a wanted notice for the entire multiverse, but in just a few thousand years, the Sakura Association was greatly damaged, and had to flee to the edge of the universe to lick the sores, but it made the originally noisy universe a lot quieter.

After the collapse of the First Empire, the Spark Council, which was mostly hidden behind the scenes, also surfaced, and was even regarded as a first-class rival by several superpowers.

To everyone's surprise, even after the collapse of the empire, the Spark Council not only did not take the opportunity to expand its influence, but became more and more secluded, and even rarely appeared in the eyes of the world.

Even if the two subsequent full-scale civil wars of mankind knocked out all the brains, the Spark Council did not intervene in the slightest and became more and more mysterious, but the wanted Sakura Society has always been carried out.

This relatively quiet situation only lasted until thirteen years ago, and at that time, I don't know what kind of wind the speaker of the Spark Council smoked at that time, it is said that a time-space experiment came out of the basket, blew up his lair to the sky, and the decision-making level lost most of it, and since then, the once-prosperous Spark Council has existed in name only...

And the Sakura Society, which has been wandering on the edge of civilizations like a lost dog, finally has a chance to appear on the stage again, perhaps because it is afraid of the residual influence of the Spark Council, and has been relatively conservative in its external decision-making for more than ten years, and has not seen too obvious actions, so that all civilizations have subconsciously ignored it.

Who would have thought that this top-secret operation, which was regarded as a matter of national system by the Silver People's Federation, would provoke such a tricky force, and it was even certain that they were by no means a whim.

Looking at the radar screen full of a large number of unsightly battleship signals, even if it showed that most of them were just the smallest frigates or even armed merchant ships, Zhou Yuehong, who had heard of the combat style of the Sakura Society, still felt the endless cold.

She suddenly realized that this was probably the most critical moment in her life, and any decision she made at this time was related to the life and death of everyone on the Icarus, and even more to the national fortunes of the Silver Federation in the next thousand years.

"High-energy upheaval reaction detected! The Icarus has been locked by the main guns of the 3,000-energy battleship! A fatal blow is expected in twenty-three seconds! The adjutant interrupted Zhou Yuehong's thoughts in a sharp voice, "Captain, request to open the force field shield!" ”

"Nope! The Icarus's energy reserves cannot be wasted here. Exit intelligent navigation, change to manual steering, emergency auxiliary propulsion engine ready to start, accelerate with maximum thrust, ready to change the navigation track! Dodge the main guns of enemy ships! ”

Zhou Yuehong almost didn't hesitate to give an order that completely contradicted.

Suddenly hearing this expected but extremely cold order, the crew of the bridge all changed their faces, and the adjutant reminded with a pale face: "But the military transformation of the Icarus was only half completed, and during the period, a lot of civilian facilities and warehouses were loaded in order to increase the amount of stockpiling, and the only emergency device can at most offset the thrust of two Gs, and the most important thing is that because of the insect infection, it is impossible for almost all passengers to return to their seats in time... If you do that..."

Zhou Yuehong had never imagined what heavy consequences this would bring, she was silent for a moment, and ordered: "Issue an emergency notice of gravity change, no matter what, the Icarus can't be stopped here, we can't afford the consequences of downtime!" We must hold out until reinforcements arrive! Ladies and gentlemen, this is a war, a battle to block the future of the Federation! For the Federation! ”

"For the Federation!" After hearing this order, the crew of the entire bridge obviously showed a trace of nervousness and despair in their eyes, but they adjusted their emotions at the first time, and gritted their teeth with solemn faces.

......

As luck turned out, good luck always ran out, and during the journey from Ward 13 to the central spiral passage, David's group encountered a noticeable increase in infections.

Fortunately, after Wang Yan was injected with a luxurious nano-medical robot, his injuries recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye in a short period of time, plus three partners who were also from Yinkai University and Luo Yanchuan, a bounty hunter who was also not weak in combat effectiveness, although he encountered a small group of infected bodies more than once along the way, he could be regarded as forcibly breaking through the past without danger, but he also paid the price of six travelers.

And during this period, the remaining seven or eight people also adjusted their emotions in the experience of the death of their companions one after another, although David and his party are strong, but after all, they are not selfless and fearless saviors, and in most emergency situations, even if they want to save people, they are powerless, after all, at any time a negligence is bitten by an infected body, it is the end of death, and David will personally execute them.

Everyone was silent about this, after all, there were enough infected people on the ship, and no one wanted to have infected people who were familiar with them behind them.

Of course, not all bitten people will be as willing to use death to change their predetermined fate of becoming a walking corpse like Liu Jichuan, to be precise, most people will have a fluke mentality until the last moment, maybe their will is strong enough not to become that kind of thing, or there may be this vaccine on the ship.

For such people, David will respect their wishes and then hammer their heads into a puddle of rotten watermelons.

Under this cold-blooded treatment, the group finally came to the central spiral passage, but the reality was that people felt cold.

The remnants of their sanity allowed the infected to know that there wouldn't be much 'food' in the warehouse area either, so they had the opposite idea of Davy and wanted to go through the central spiral passage to the living quarters.

So when Davy and his party rushed to the wide square, they lost their shelter and were instantly exposed to the eyes of a large wave of infected people who were walking through the spiral passage, and even worse, it seemed that because of the movement generated by the battle along the way, they were also blocked by a large number of infected people on the way to come.

"What to do! We have no way out! The bald man asked with a sinking face, but he hadn't lost his composure.

David also sighed heavily in his heart, although he said that things were man-made, but sometimes he had to admit that luck would also play a decisive role in a critical moment, and a little imbalance in the balance of fate would completely push people into the abyss.

"I'm afraid I'll have to go back the way I came." Luoyanchuan Road.

Everyone was silent, and if they did so, they were not only doomed to unimaginable casualties, but they would also fall into unprecedented passivity if they were not armed. But even so, it is better than the total annihilation.

Just as David was about to lead everyone back from the same way, a piercing siren suddenly sounded above the ship:

"Attention everyone, please note that an emergency gravity change alert is hereby issued, Icarus is about to change its sailing track and enter an emergency acceleration, please return to your seats immediately, fasten your seat belts, or fasten the emergency security lock to the safety armrest! The Icarus is getting ready to accelerate! ”

"Repeat the broadcast, all..."

The people who had already planned to retreat suddenly heard this emergency announcement, and their faces became extremely ugly.

Anyone with a modicum of physics knows what hell they are about to face.

"Mr. David! Let's get back to the emergency lane! Otherwise, there is only a dead end! Giverson suggested in a hoarse voice.

"Nope! Immediately rush to the central spiral channel! There is no way back! Now take a step back! It's a dead end! Follow me! This is our only chance! ”

"But!" Gilvinson was about to retort, but was interrupted by David's look.

David didn't say anything more, and he didn't have time to say anything more, there was a great terror between life and death, he didn't have the right to choose life and death for others, everyone should also have a choice.

And he has already made his own choice.

In the face of the almost invisible frenzy of infected bodies, a charge was launched!

But this time, he was not alone, almost as soon as he stepped out on his front foot, Luo Yanchuan behind him chose to follow him almost without any thought.

"Anyway, he saved my life, so let's go through it with him!" Wang Yan and his four classmates looked at each other, and gritted their teeth to follow.

"Crazy! Lose your marbles! It's crazy! Don't take me with you if you want to die! Finally, a middle-aged fat man couldn't stand this fear of life and death, and almost broke down and fled towards the emergency passage where he came.

And his actions also woke up the rest of the people, except for Gilvinson, the rest of them chose to retreat like the fat man.

In their eyes, the actions of David and his party are completely like moths to a fire, and there is no life!

"Made, people die and birds are facing the sky, and they will not die for thousands of years, fight!"

Gilvinson looked at David's back, his face changed back and forth a few times, but he finally chose to follow, although he didn't know what David's plan was, he still chose to believe the other party.

If you want to ask why, he can't find an answer, perhaps, because of the other party's eyes at the time.

In this situation where everyone has lost hope, only in David's eyes, the former brilliance has been restored, and even stronger than before.

Is that the desperation and madness that belongs to gamblers?

No!

That is the self-confidence and fighting spirit of living to die!
