Chapter 61: Urgency! Tremble in the balance

"Snort...... Sneer......"

The speed of the [Yi Xun] in the main internal passage of the Jasmine became slower and slower, and finally, after a few weak white smoke spewed out from the main and auxiliary engines, no matter how Yun Yi drove it, this mecha no longer reacted. Yunyi checked it, and the screen was still on, indicating that the energy core was not damaged, if nothing else, it was estimated that the engine had been damaged.

The battle with the Aquarius God General caused [Yi Xun] to be extremely damaged. Originally, if he was just traveling at an ordinary speed, he could hold on for a while, but after learning Zhao Xiyue's whereabouts, Yun Yi was anxious, and the speed of his flight was much faster unconsciously, but when he didn't notice, the engine of [Yi Xun] had already died.

With only a slight inspection, Yun Yi knew at a glance that this mecha could no longer operate for at least a short time, and had to be sent back to the company to replace the engine.

Pushing open the cockpit, Yun Yi jumped down in the air, looking back at the mecha full of mutilations and scars, he touched the slightly hot shell, and muttered: "Yixuan, you are here to rest and rest now, and when my affairs are over, I will rebuild a new body for you." ”

After speaking, he looked into the depths of the passage, took a deep breath, and ran at high speed with his legs.

……

If someone accidentally walks into it without wearing protective clothing, he will be unknowingly contaminated with radiation particles, and without any abnormal sensation in the body, his mind will become blurred in a short period of time, and in a maximum of five minutes, the human brain will be completely dead, and there is no possibility of life.

This is the news that Zhao Xiyue once knew when she was chatting with an innate master who had served in the military on the flagship of the fleet. Except for those who have worked on flagship-class battleships, few people will know about this kind of thing, even their own master Xu Wei, they don't know.

At this moment, Zhao Xiyue opened a pair of godless eyes without focus, and silently walked on the road to the end of the spaceship.

It was empty, and there was no sound except for the sound of her own footsteps. The lights in the corridor are very sensitive voice-activated switches, walk a few steps, the front lights will gradually turn on, and the back lights will gradually go out, although the lights around the body are very strong, illuminating the corridor as if it were day, but it is too quiet here, under normal circumstances, except for the staff responsible for overhauling the main engine of the spacecraft, no one will come at all. In addition, they are still in a state of combat, and those staff members are probably already hiding in the escape pod, and they can leave at any time when they find danger, so who will come here at this time?

"Dash...... Da ...... Da ......"

In my ears, there was only the crisp sound of my own leather shoes stepping on the metal floor, and the empty corridor was dark at the end. Zhao Xiyue suddenly stopped and looked back. Behind, too, there is no end to the darkness.

Not a single one.

Zhao Xiyue, who was standing in the middle of the corridor, felt that she was extremely small at the moment, as if the road in front of her was infinitely far away, and no matter how she walked, she couldn't reach the end.

It's like......

When I was in school in Chang'an Four-Star, when I saw those ghost horror movies on the Internet, the strange situations encountered by those protagonists were average. Moreover, many of those stories take place on spaceships. At that time, I liked to watch horror movies very much, because whenever I saw a scary plot, I could hide in my brother's warm arms without any scruples and justifiably. If you usually want to enjoy your brother's arms, but you will always be taught by him, saying "girls should look like girls, be ladylike, and be dignified", and then he will push them away. Therefore, the biggest reason why I like to watch horror movies is because of this.

Now, the aftermath of watching horror movies is here.

Zhao Xiyue looked at the front and then at the back, wanting to take a step, but she seemed to have lost the strength of her whole body.

What will lie ahead?

Zombie?

Phantom?

Or an alien alien creature?

Zhao Xiyue has not forgotten what she is here for, she is not afraid of death, but she is afraid that she will become the kind of half-dead monster, such as a ghost, the kind that jumps out and scares people when she is fine. Or maybe it's a zombie contaminated with a xenovirus that wants to bite someone and turn him into a kind.

A feeling of terror overwhelmed her like a tidal wave.

"Brother...... Where are you, I miss you so much. ”

At this time, she wished that Yunyi could appear by her side, and then hide in her brother's warm and safe arms, and no longer have to be afraid and worried.

However, in the long, silent corridor, she was alone.

"Buzz ......"

Suddenly, there was a violent tremor under his feet, and a whistling sound resounded throughout the corridor in the blink of an eye. Zhao Xiyue, who was already very frightened, was so frightened that her body went soft and fell to the ground. In just an instant, her face became extremely pale, and she retreated to the cold corner with her hands and feet, looking at all this in front of her in horror.

Just now, what happened?

Could it be that there are really ghosts?

"Brother...... Where are you......" She sobbed quietly, cowering in the corner like a frightened bunny, looking so pitiful and helpless.

……

After the shock, Yun Yi leaned against the wall of the corridor, his brow furrowed slightly.

"Sakura, what just happened?"

After a moment, Sakura's voice came from the wrist light brain: "Boss, just now, when a Yseras battleship was about to be destroyed by the dragoons, it detonated the power core at close range, producing an extremely strong explosion. Because the ship was located very close to the Jasmine, the ship also received some energy shock, and there was no damage. ”

Yun Yi breathed a sigh of relief, looked up at the deep passage in front of him, took a sharp breath, and ran with his legs again.

There should be as many as three passages to the tail end of the ship, if I am not mistaken. Two of them are equipped with surveillance systems, Yun Yi asked [Sakura] to check before, and Zhao Xiyue was not seen to pass through the location of the detection system in the channel for two days, so she is most likely to appear in this channel without any monitoring system. In fact, this is not an ordinary passage, but a backup passage that will only be used when the ship's personnel urgently repair the main engine, and it is generally closed. But Zhao Xiyue has the highest authority of this spaceship, no matter which door it is, she can easily pass through.

When Yunyi came to the entrance of this passage, the door was closed, although it was the designer, but Yunyi did not have any authority on the Jasmine, so he could only use [Sakura] to forcibly invade, and it took nearly three minutes to open the door.

Time was pressing, and he didn't dare to waste even a second of his time.

The passage is not straight, because it has to avoid some important parts of the hull structure, so the design is curved and even spiral-shaped in some places, which makes the overall length of the corridor very long, almost nearly five kilometers or so. At Yun Yi's current speed, it will take about five minutes to complete this corridor. He didn't know when Zhao Xiyue set off, if she left too early, five minutes would be enough for the radiation generated by the engine crew to kill all her brain cells.

At this time, the benefits of the innate level four were manifested, and Yun Yi was completely sprinting forward at a speed of 100 meters, although his body felt extremely tired, it was not unbearable to go. As he ran, he mobilized his inner breath, flowing calmly in the meridians, restoring the vitality and strength of every inch of muscle. In this way, he has been able to maintain a high speed and run wildly through the corridors.

Seeing the situation in front of him, Yun Yi's face was full of bitterness.

Once when Yun Yi participated in the battle on the warships of the Restoration Army, he saw many battleships being damaged. Engineers in charge of maintenance often make it impossible to pass through the passage due to damage to the hull of the ship when they reach the parts that need to be repaired. Therefore, when designing this Jasmine, there will be two or three passages parallel to each other in these passages, although the destination is the same, but with the current situation, he doesn't know whether Zhao Xiyue has reached the engine crew or is in the passage. If he found a random passage to go through, in case Zhao Xiyue was still in other passages, but he was surrounded by radiation particles, I was afraid that when Zhao Xiyue came to the rear end of the engine, he would only see his own corpse.

However, Yun Yi only hesitated for less than a second, and then continued to run wildly.

Regardless of whether Zhao Xiyue had reached the end or was still in the passage, he had to run near the crew first. If Zhao Xiyue wasn't there, she would look back one by one. Only in this way is the safest, as for the radiation to which you are exposed...... Maybe a moment of damage won't make you feel good.

Yun Yi thought so.

In fact, he also knew the power of those radiation particles, but for the sake of Zhao Xiyue and his oath, he had to do so.

……

The little girl huddled in the corner staggered to her feet again, rested for a while, and gradually plucked up her courage again, and walked towards the end of the passage.

"Actually...... I'm a scourge. Every time because of me, my brother would be seriously injured. Mom, why did you entrust me to my brother in the first place, if I had left this world with you, I wouldn't have so much to do today. Every time I see my brother running around the universe for the goal of recovering the country, in his spare time, he trains hard, earns money, learns mecha engineering, warship design, and those military commands or something, my brother has devoted all his life to realizing the ideal of recovering the country, and there is no time that belongs to him at all, all of which we imposed on him. Mom, do you know, every time I see my brother's hard work, my heart hurts, and I can't wait to replace him......"

Walking in the passage, Zhao Xiyue seemed to have forgotten the horror, and muttered to herself while holding on to the wall.

“…… I know that Sister Moxue likes her brother very much, and my brother likes her very much. But...... I also like my brother very much, when we live together, my brother will take care of me every day to eat, sleep and go to school; When he protected me, he forgot to die, even if he was about to die, and he didn't want me to be hurt in the slightest; Thinking that I liked to sing, he started a record label for me and built me such a beautiful boat; And for my future, he has been running around in the starry sky all year round, without any leisure...... I know everything he has done for me, but ...... Mom, do you know, I hate so much, why should I be a princess of the Zhao Song Empire, instead of an ordinary girl. In that case, I can compete fairly with Sister Moxue......"

As she walked, Zhao Xiyue stopped again, she lowered her head and looked at her body, unable to hide her sad expression.

“…… Why, why haven't I grown up yet. I am already 17 years old, and Teacher Xu Wei told me that when she was 17 years old, she was already 1.7 meters tall, and the bulging places on her body were also bulging. But why is it that I, who am also seventeen years old, am only so small, and my chest has not changed at all, and there is almost no difference between me and when I was twelve? My brother doesn't like me, it must be because my figure is not as good as Sister Moxue's. ”

She raised her head a little dazedly, and continued to move her steps firmly, a cruel smile on her face.

"Huh...... But now, none of that matters, and if I leave this world, my brother won't have to carry so many things for me, someone he doesn't like. In the future, he will live only for himself. Got rid of the shackles of his oath, his future will belong to him, and I believe that with his brother's talent, he will definitely be the top people in this universe. And without me, my brother should be married to Sister Moxue soon. Without me, there would be no war, no fighting, and they would have lived happily together for a long, long time...... Oh? Has it already arrived...... Brother, I wish you eternal happiness......"

She smiled and looked at the closed door in front of her, made of radiation-resistant alloy. On the door, a few big words clearly tell everyone who comes here that they must wear protective clothing to enter, otherwise it is strictly forbidden to enter.

"Is it strictly forbidden to enter...... Zhao Xiyue smiled, and entered a line of numbers on the cipher that popped up next to her, and the alloy door instantly opened to both sides, and suddenly a large space was displayed in front of her, which was full of huge machines, and from time to time there were blue lightning flashes on it, and through those pipes, a huge amount of energy flow could be seen from the pipes into those machines almost with the naked eye.

"This boat was given to me by my brother, Little Bear, and it is a gift from my brother just like you. So, in the last minute, I will hold you tightly. I don't know where people will go after they die, in which world, will there be someone like my brother to protect me? ”

Zhao Xiyue's body trembled slightly, hugged the cloth bear tightly to her chest, moved her steps, and walked towards the depths......

……

At the moment, what is Yunyi doing?

A gate marked "no entry without hazmat clothing" completely blocked his path to the engine crew.

"How's it going, haven't you opened it yet?"

Yun Yi's face was pale, and he walked around the door anxiously, and asked a question.

[Sakura]'s voice came from the wrist-type light brain: "Boss, the calculation method of this door is completely different from the previous one, it may be that the designer specially used the master control light brain to encrypt these dangerous parts in order to prevent accidents. And the main control light brain of this spaceship is not comparable to those ordinary spaceship light brains, it seems that some kind of special structure is used, and I still need time to calculate. ”

Hearing this, Yun Yi slammed a punch on his head, full of regret.

When designing this spaceship, in order to protect Zhao Xiyue's safety, he specially went to the professional optical brain manufacturer Tomorrow Technology Group Company, and used its equipment and technology accumulation, coupled with the unique technology he got from Paradise Island, it took nearly half a month to create this unique optical brain, and installed it on the Jasmine. But he didn't expect that what he made would one day become an obstacle to his way.

"Tell me, how long will it take you to open this door?"

After two or three seconds, Sakura's voice sounded, "It is expected to take at least ten minutes." ”

Yun Yi was silent, but [Sakura] was not silent, and suddenly shouted, "Boss, the detection system installed near the engine crew has found the target." ”

"What!" Yun Yi exclaimed, [Sakura] quickly transmitted the picture, Yun Yi's eyes widened after just one glance, that little figure holding an old ragdoll bear, who else could there be besides Zhao Xiyue!

"I command you to open this door for me in a minute!"

Yun Yi only felt an inexplicable irritability surging in his heart, and he roared loudly. However, solving the problem of calculating optical brain data is not something that can be done by giving an order.

"I'm sorry boss, I can't do it in a minute."

Yun Yi took two steps back and forth, and then his gaze fell on the alloy gate, gradually becoming resolute.

"It seems...... The only last resort is to resort. ”

Yun Yi took a deep breath and stretched out his right arm, his fists clenched together.

All the data of this door, he clearly remembered in his mind.

THICKNESS: 0.5M.

Materials: Optimized Tanfuler No. 7 multi-material composite alloy.

WITH SUCH A HEAVY ALLOY GATE, EVEN WITH A GAUSS GUN WITH A CALIBER OF LESS THAN 30CM, IT COULD NOT BE BLASTED OPEN IN A SHORT TIME.

However, Zhao Xiyue is inside, that is the person he cares about the most in the deepest part of his heart.

Even if she brought him countless troubles, that person was still the most important person for him.

His gaze gradually cleared, and Yun Yi let out a long breath, and the fist of his right arm gradually loosened, and then moved to his neck.

"Come out...... My Combo Mech ......"
