Chapter 288: Death's Revenge
Starve to death!
Orin's heart was beating violently, she couldn't imagine how desperate the humans on this ship must have been, they were separated and imprisoned in this very different area and starved to death, the process must have been extremely tragic, and even cannibalism, suddenly, Orin thought of those mutilated corpses......
……
"Vomit...... Zhou Sen, let's go. Orin retched, despite desperate restraint.
"Hmm."
"Peng......
Suddenly, there was a faint crashing sound outside.
"Not good!" Zhou Sen's face changed color, and he suddenly turned around and rushed out.
"What's wrong?" Orin hurriedly chased after him.
"Our ship."
"What happened to our ship?"
"Our ship must have been blown up." Zhou Sen wailed.
"Ah......h
……
The two of them galloped to the interstellar dock, and when they were still far away, they saw the flames outside the melted hole.
Really!
When the two of them rush to the hole, they find that their ship has been blown apart and completely disintegrated, and the space is littered with burning parts.
The two of them watched in a daze as the wreckage of the spaceship scattered across the sky, unable to speak for a long time.
"Did the unknown creature do it?" A chill ran down Orin's spine, and she subconsciously glanced at the unfathomable holes in the metal walls behind her.
"It's not." Zhou Sen shook his head.
"Who did it?"
"It's the revenge of death."
"Ah......h
"This ghost ship saved us." Zhou Sen shrugged.
"You mean that if we don't make an expedition on the fly, we're going to blow up and die on that ship?" Orin looked at the flames that were dying out in space.
"Yes."
"But the problem is, I'm just going to live a few more days." Orin smiled wryly.
"Seven days. The circulatory system of this spacesuit can last for three months, but the nutrient solution can only last for three days, that is, if we save some food, it will be fine for seven days, and in the extreme case, it can last for ten days. ”
"It's just ten more days to live." Orin's voice flattened, and she realized that she was not afraid at all, and she did not understand why she was so calm.
"No, no! Ten days can do a lot. Besides, if I can get this spaceship to activate the life system, even if it's partial, then food won't be a problem, because I have a lot of food in my space button, and it won't be a problem to eat it for months. Zhou Sen shook his head and said.
"Even if you can start this spaceship, we don't want to return to the five star fields in our lives, because, this spaceship is so big, not to mention the difficulty of acceleration, it is impossible for the two of us to control such a large spaceship, let alone the five star fields, even if it is impossible to reach the edge stars of the five star fields, however, if it can be started, at least we can find a way to survive on this spaceship, theoretically, this spaceship should have food and seed banks and the like......" Orin suddenly burst into joy inexplicably, It would also be nice if I could spend the rest of my life on this spaceship, planting flowers and grass every day, and looking at the stars in a daze if I had nothing to do.
The more Olin thought about it, the more excited she became, but then there was a fever on her face.
"You're thinking too much." Just when Orin was secretly planning the days ahead, Zhou Sen directly poured a scoop of cold water.
“……”
"A large spaceship like this, there will be a lot of lifeboats and frigates, especially frigates, which are very fast, as long as we find a frigate, we can go to the edge star and wait for the spaceships passing by the five star fields to rescue us."
"Oh......"
"You don't seem to be happy?" Zhou Sen sensed that something was wrong with Orin.
"I'm happy, I'm so happy!" Orin forced a smile on his face.
"It's good to be happy. Hehe, our luck is also against the sky, if it weren't for this ghost ship, we would have been blown to scum by now. Zhou Sen said with a smile.
"That Grim Reaper is really revenge." Orin said with palpitations.
"People are the god of death, the god of death, and you still expect him to have a bodhisattva heart? Ignore him for now, and when I fix him later, I'll go back to the main control room when I get this hole done. Zhou Sen stretched out his arms, and the hole that he violently cut was blocked by metal.
"Why plug it?" Orin asked.
"Plug it up and be safe, if we start this ship, this place will affect the pressure."
"Yes."
"It's okay if the spaceship blows up, the Grim Reaper thinks we're all dead, and it won't haunt us for the time being."
……
The two returned to the main control room again.
The corpses floating along the way made Orin extremely uncomfortable, and she could imagine that the ship was a cannibalistic hell on earth.
Nothing to say all the way.
After returning to the main control room, Zhou Sen began to study the giant spaceship, while Orin was also looking for clues. Orin doesn't know anything about the structure of a spaceship, but she wants to be able to help.
It is conservatively estimated that this spacecraft is at least 900 years old, because the human interstellar federal government of the five star fields has been established for more than 700 years, and 700 years ago, the five star fields have been separated from the mother planet Earth for more than 200 years.
It can be difficult to start a giant spaceship that was more than 900 years old.
Of course, the problem facing Zhou Sen now is not whether this ancient spaceship can be started, in Zhou Sen's opinion, this spaceship is likely to be able to start, because it itself is well preserved, and it has always been in a stationary state, and the most important thing is that this type of exploration spacecraft is designed to have a very long lifespan, five hundred years is a conservative estimate, and its actual life span is not difficult to reach one thousand years.
Now, the problem Zhou Sen faces is that he doesn't know how the ship works.
Although the scientific and technological civilization of the five star fields originated from the ancient earth civilization, because the time span has reached a thousand years, the development of human science and technology can be said to be changing with each passing day, and the knowledge mastered by Zhou Sen may not be able to come in handy.
One day.
Two days.
Three days.
Four days.
Five days.
Five days passed, and Zhou Sen did not make any progress.
In the past five days, Zhou Sen has been busy, because this main control room is too big, there are thousands of buttons of all kinds, densely packed like stars in the sky, what makes him feel incredible is that he didn't find the button to start the main engine.
On the fifth day, there was not much food left for the two of them, because the amount of nutrient solution in the spacesuit was designed to last for three days.
"Zhou Sen, rest for a while." Orin sat on the ground and leaned against the wall, facing the anxious Zhou Sen.
"There's no time, we don't have time......" Zhou Sen kept checking the dense buttons and the off indicator lights, muttering to himself.
