Wasteland Online players are notoriously warm-hearted, especially cloud players who are eager to grab their helmets and help out in person.

Shortly after the medical miracle was posted, lines of comments quickly refreshed below the post.

"It's not easy to pretend to be crazy, you just have to act in your true colors."

“emmm…… Dry a bowl of hot Xiang first? ”

"Gross-"

"It's so spicy to the eyes! And if you eat secretly, you will be banned! ”

"I think it's only ...... in public"

"Grass, what's so hard about pretending to be crazy, you get up and dance a section of subject 3, and then a section of shouting! Not to mention NPCs, Ah Guang, who is guaranteed to peep at the screen, is completely confused! ”

"Poof——, no, my toes have already been picked out of the four-bedroom living room for Ah Guang."

Looking at those unfamiliar IDs and reservation player tags, the medical miracle was a little confused, and after brushing for a long time, he didn't have a serious suggestion, and he almost didn't squirt out the takeaway in his mouth.

"Holy! Serious advice! ”

Fang Chang: "Is there a possibility, what they give you is serious advice." (Squint)"

Medical miracles: "? ”

Elf King Fugui: "?!" Brother Fang?! ”

The mole in the canyon is on the run: "Wait, aren't you in the sky?" (Confused)"

Debt-indebted: "What's the task?" Isn't it already done? (laughs)"

Irena: "That's too fast, I guess people just came down and talked to their teammates on the sidelines." ”

An hour ago, Elder Brother Fang was still pretending to be forced on the forum, saying that he was about to save the world, but he turned his head and appeared on the forum again.

Everyone was surprised that this guy had the leisure to fill the forum on the way to the mission.

Maybe he also realized that now was not the time to touch the fish, Fang Chang just bubbled up and disappeared from the post, no matter how Aite didn't appear in the back.

The post quickly skewed up.

The original theme was obviously to discuss how to pretend to be crazy and stupid, but the conversation ended up talking about the synchronous orbit and the "mysterious mission" that the Burning Corps was doing.

Medical miracles tried to break the topic back several times, and it seemed that it was about to succeed, but an ID appeared and broke the topic that he had managed to straighten up.

Quit smoking: "Uh, messed up. (Weak Heart)"

The air was quiet for many seconds.

The originally lively post was like a silence spell, and there was no new reply for several seconds.

Just when all the melon-eating people thought that the server was stuck, one reply after another erupted like an avalanche.

Siss: "......? ”

Tail: "??? ”

Canyon Fugitive Mole: "What the hell is screwed up?" (Confused)"

Commander of the Spring: "Can you Burning Corps finish the words at once, don't jump a sentence for a while, it will make my heart bad." (Khan)"

Lao Bai: "Haha, I'm sorry everyone, people have misses, horses have stumbled, not to mention things we have never seen before...... In short, it was put aside. ”

Edge paddling: "Groove ......"

Commander of the Spring: "It's not a joke to ...... up."

Lao Bai: "So it's not a joke. ”

Debt Big Eyes: "Really fake?!" (frightened)"

Construction site boy with bricks: "That is...... It's the end of the world?! (frightened)"

Professor Yang of the Thunder and Lightning Law: ", the price of silver coins is about to collapse?!" (frightened)"

Fujito: "You guy is using silver coins as stocks...... (surprised)"

Raven: "No, I don't want to reopen the duck!" QAQ”

Lao Bai: "Ahem, don't talk nonsense, even if we miss, it doesn't mean that the alliance will lose, and the near-orbit defense platform that is being installed is the main event." ”

Tempest: "Well, at least we've figured out the reality of the USS Orion. ”

Fang Chang: "I'm afraid that the manager and we will treat each other as the last hole card...... (Squint)"

Lao Bai: "Don't say such frustrating words, it's just a small setback, and it's not as big as the few times we planted it in Borneo." (bared teeth)"

Fang Chang: "Anyway, we did our best...... Either another research ship from the Academy will have to be tried, or you will have to wait. ”

Medical Miracle: "It seems that I am the only one to save the Alliance!" By the way, what about after pretending to be crazy and deceiving the interrogator? How can you mix into the high-level of the Enlightenment Society, do you want to brainstorm it. (bared teeth)"

Battlefield Atmosphere Group: "Speaking of night ten?" Usually he is the first to jump out, but this time I didn't see him. ”

Murderous Dagger: "Hungry...... His little girlfriend is cold, probably in the emo bar. ”

Edge paddling: "What?!" Jiang Xuezhou...... He's dead? ”

Tail: "Giao...... (surprised)"

Fang Chang: "That situation...... It's hard to say that you will survive. ”

Lao Bai: "After all, it's in space." ”

Most of the people in the post were in mixed moods, and they didn't know what to say for a while.

Especially Fang Chang.

He couldn't help but think of Dolly, and then there was a pang in his heart, and it was so painful that it was impossible to breathe.

Players can be revived no matter how many times they die, but NPC death means that the data is permanently deleted.

He couldn't imagine the world without her.

It is precisely because of this that he understands Ye Shi's mood and feelings very well at this moment.

That must have been a bad feeling......

Fang Changgang thought like this, but a familiar ID jumped out of the screen.

Jiujiu loves pineapple: "Wait...... No, my brother is still online, are you making a mistake? (Confused)"

Fang Chang: "? ”

Quit smoking: "How is it possible?!" ”

Jiujiu loves pineapple: "Do you want me to wake him up?" (worried)"

Fang Chang: "...... No, leave him alone and let him wake up on his own! ”

Tempest: "It's a little weird, let's see." ”

Jiujiu loves pineapple: "Wow! Roger that! (Salute)"

Medical miracle: "Holy!" Look at me! (Crazy)"

Angry fatty liver: "Honor." ”

“……”

The message in the post is still refreshing.

Fang Chang, who was sitting in front of the computer, waited for a long time and didn't see Ye Shi's ID appear, his tense expression finally relaxed and smiled, and the stone hanging in his heart was gently put down.

“…… It seems that I am self-inflicted. ”

People are not dead yet.

Looking at the helmet placed next to the computer, Fang Chang's heart moved, and he reached out to hold it in his hand.

What if it's a misunderstanding?

Maybe......

None of them died.

By divine spurt, he put his helmet back on and leaned back in his computer chair.

Deep darkness soon overshadowed his vision and thoughts.

Just when his heart was pounding, a line of light blue pop-up windows appeared in front of his eyes, making his originally excited mood sink to the bottom again.

[Resurrection remaining time: 70 hours, 30 minutes, 15 seconds]

The beating number was like cold water poured in his face, and Fang Chang smiled bitterly and took off his helmet.

"It's also ......"

He shook his head and placed his helmet on the corner of the table.

"The whole scientific research ship was blown up, how could anyone survive......"

……

Time goes back to an hour and a half ago-

In the depths of outer space, a magnificent starship is floating silently in a cemetery that no one cares about, accompanied by the vast steel wreckage like the sea.

In the vast expanse of the cemetery, there are not only broken steel structures and severed cables, but also corpses in spacesuits.

Judging from the oxidized corpses in the spacesuit, most of these people were starved to death or frozen to death, and only a few died of lack of oxygen.

There are also some fragmented Aerospace Forces uniforms, whose owners are no longer visible.

Their bodies either exploded or were shredded by orbital junk.

Without the protection of a spacesuit, it would be almost impossible to keep a whole corpse in space.

If Vault 13 is a paradise on earth, then the missile cruiser "Orion" is undoubtedly a hell in heaven.

Even though two centuries have passed since that war, the devastation of the ruins can still clearly see the brutality of the battle......

At this moment, on a certain deck of the abandoned starship, a man with a jetpack on his back stared at the hibernation pod in front of him expressionlessly.

The door of the dormant pod was open, and a cold skeleton lay inside.

The skeleton was covered with a military uniform from the era of the People's Union, and the badge with gold rimmed was still vivid in the light of the flashlight, and it was not covered with dust by two centuries.

Luo Yi stared at the skeleton for a long time, confirming the almost unrecognizable face.

After a moment, he seemed to be convinced that this was the person he was looking for, so he reached out and rummaged through the skeleton's body for a moment, finally pulling out a bright silver metal disc from under the folded phalange.

That's the soldier's badge.

It is also the only relic left.

By the light of the flashlight, Luo Yi confirmed the name and rank engraved on the badge.

[Luo Yi, sergeant.] 】

That's his name!

A trace of nostalgia floated in Luo Yi's eyes, and his thoughts couldn't help but drift back to more than two hundred years ago.

But just then, a voice from the communication channel interrupted his thoughts.

"A UFO is approaching, and there are only 1,200 kilometers left in a straight line from us."

That's the sound of the starship control system.

If it's on the ground, this distance is nothing to worry about, but on an astronomical scale, a straight-line distance of 1,200 kilometers is almost equivalent to the distance of a face to a face.

With a slight tap of his index finger next to his ear, Luo Yi looked up at the ceiling and asked expressionlessly.

"Can you confirm their identity?"

Gentle electronic tones continued.

"Their ship is the same model as the one you parked outside."

Hearing this, Luo Yi had already guessed the identity of those uninvited guests, and the corners of his mouth slightly curled up with a sneer.

If these people had arrived a few days in the morning, before he could restart the backup reactor and take control of the starship, he might have to be a little more afraid.

But by now it was too late.

Although the starship has been sunk for two centuries, it does not mean that it has been turned into scrap metal.

After a pause, he said in a deep voice.

"Search for a usable melee weapon."

After a brief pause, the gentle electronic sound rang in his ears again.

"There's an electromagnetic acceleration point defense cannon...... According to ballistic computer calculations, it is possible to cover their navigation area. ”

Luo Yi immediately ordered.

"Knock them out."

A mild electronic voice responded.

"Okay...... The fire control unit is being energized and is expected to be completed in 30 seconds. ”

One last glance at the badge in his hand, Luo Yi put it in his pocket, then pressed the switch of the jetpack and returned in the direction of the starship bridge.

At the same time, outside the starship, a silver-gray scientific research ship was slowly approaching.

Finally passing through the asteroid belt composed of space junk before the energy of the shield capacitor was exhausted, Jiang Xuezhou breathed a sigh of relief, and relaxed his shoulders on the back of the seat.

"Got it done......"

Seeing that he had arrived at his destination, Ye Shi reached out to unbuckle his seat belt, but was stopped by Jiang Xuezhou, who was sitting on the side.

"Wait a minute......"

Ye Shi stopped his hand to understand the seat belt and cast a puzzled look at Jiang Xuezhou.

"What's wrong?"

Biting his lower lip slightly, Jiang Xuezhou lowered his head and whispered.

"Can you ...... Are you here with me? I'm scared alone. ”

Ye Shi was stunned for a moment and said in wonder.

"What's there to be afraid of, isn't the most dangerous area already in the past?"

Jiang Xuezhou's face was full of hesitation, and he didn't know whether he couldn't explain the reason or didn't want to say it.

Seeing that he was about to arrive at the station, Ye Shi didn't want to wait anymore, so he was about to get up.

Seeing that he was leaving, Jiang Xuezhou couldn't care about being embarrassed, and said with self-abandonment.

"That's it, it's deep-sea phobia! Haven't you heard of that disease? Some people are born to be afraid of that kind of very dark place...... What can I do. ”

Yes?!

Ye Shi looked at this guy dumbfounded, and squeezed out a sentence from his mouth for a long time.

"Can't you get over it?"

"......" Jiang Xuezhou didn't speak, just stared at him with red eyes.

Ye Shi finally relented, sighed, and tapped his index finger twice on the helmet.

"Lao Bai, I have a situation here......"

Before he could organize the language, Lao Bai's hearty laughter came from the other end of the communication channel.

"Haha, got it, you just stay in the cockpit."

Night Ten: "?!" Did you put surveillance on me? ”

Lao Bai said with a smile.

"Not really, but I can probably guess. In fact, to tell you the truth, Fang Chang had planned to do so from the beginning, and there was no need for everyone to go down, so it would be good to leave someone on the scientific research ship to take care of it. Remember to keep an eye on offline news and don't focus on your friend. ”

Ye Shi was speechless for a while, and finally hung up the communication in silence.

Knowing that he was discussing with his teammates, Jiang Xuezhou, who was sitting in the driver's seat, stared at him intently, and immediately asked after seeing him make a call.

"What did your teammates say?"

"They didn't say anything, they said let me see it,"

Facing the pair of expectant eyes, Ye Shi suddenly became a little embarrassed and looked away.

The NPCs in this game are too human-like.

It can't be played by a real person, right?

That's embarrassing.

"I'm sorry, I've had a lot of nerves since I was a child, and I can't experience anything like heights, motion sickness, 3D, etc. So what kind of deep-sea phobia must be similar...... Anyway, you've made it so far. ”

I didn't expect this guy to be able to say things that cared about people, Jiang Xuezhou felt that his cheeks were slightly hot.

Feelings of embarrassment prevailed, and she hurriedly looked away, twisting her face to the side.

"Well, it's not as exaggerated as you say...... In fact, hard work can still be overcome. ”

Looking at this hard-mouthed guy, Ye Shi finally didn't restrain the urge to be cheap, and jokingly ridiculed.

"Shall I go?"

“！！！”

Looking at Jiang Xuezhou, who turned around in a panic, Ye Shi couldn't help but laugh out loud

"Haha, I'm kidding-"

Before his words fell, an alarm suddenly crept into his heart, and his heart twitched involuntarily.

It was a feeling like never before.

Even if he was on the verge of death countless times, or even experienced death, he had never felt the same way.

It feels like ......

He was about to lose something more precious than his life once in three days.

Driven by that strong omen, he blurted out a ghostly debut with a ghostly expression.

"Something is targeting us......"

The moment he heard this, Jiang Xuezhou, who was raising his fist and making a gesture to knock him on the head, immediately put away his look of shame.

Without a trace of hesitation and suspicion, she almost subconsciously pounced on the operation interface, and her ten fingers pointed out the afterimage on the holographic panel, controlling the scientific research ship to make a sideways maneuver, changing the original trajectory of movement.

Even if there is no warning radar reminder!

Almost at the same time, an instantaneously amplified electromagnetic signal appeared on the operation interface of the research ship along with the alarm that the radar detected a high-speed moving object!

Looking at the series of mass points on the radar screen that passed by the scientific research ship, Jiang Xuezhou's forehead broke out in a cold sweat for a moment.

It's dangerous!

Just a little bit!

After all, the scientific research ship of the Academy is not military equipment, but scientific research equipment.

Although the deflection shield on the scientific research ship can resist the attack of the mass accelerator, they are facing a phalanx formed by the cruiser of the People's Union Aerospace Force after all!

Not to mention that they had only just escaped from the space junk coverage area, and the energy of the shield capacitors had only recovered to 30%......

Even if there were only one or two point defense cannons aimed at them, it would be enough for them to drink a pot!

"What happened?" I almost didn't get strangled out of the seat belt overnight, and I coughed several times before I gasped.

It's thanks to the slow hand just now that he didn't unbuckle the seat belt, otherwise I'm afraid that he would have been sent away just now.

Jiang Xuezhou's reaction was quite calm, and he calmed down after taking a few deep breaths.

"It's a point defense system!"

Ye Shi was stunned for a moment.

"What's that?"

"It's that thing on the South China Sea Alliance destroyer...... Pretty much something like that anyway! Jiang Xuezhou explained, while constantly operating the holographic screen on the control interface with both hands, trying to avoid the tracking of the point defense cannon.

Ye Eleven looked at her side face with a confused face, and couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth.

"Damn?! This broken ship has been parked for more than 200 years and can still fire?! ”

Jiang Xuezhou said anxiously.

"It's not on Earth, how can things in space break so easily! What's more, it's still a leaky ship...... Get your teammates to sit tight! We're afraid we won't be able to slow down! ”

"They're very steady...... I'm already scolding my mother. Ye Shi grinned with his index finger on his helmet and stared intently ahead, trying to make his perception more useful.

However, he soon discovered that his instincts were of little use in a "hand-to-hand" contest other than the initial one.

Under Jiang Xuezhou's control, the scientific research ship moved in a snakeskin, and the whistling mass bomb and the omen of death never stopped at all!

There is no doubt that -

His instincts reminded him that they could successfully evade the Dot Defense System countless times, but if they failed once, they would die without a place to die!

Less than 300 kilometers away almost like face to face!

Both sides are anticipating each other's predictions and silently calculating their next attacks and dodges!

As a passive beaten party, Jiang Xuezhou's side obviously has no advantage at all.

The best strategy at this moment is not to get close to the past at all, but to retreat immediately-

But they had no choice.

100,000 neutron torpedoes have fallen into the hands of the celestials!

They have no way back at all!

"Ahhh......h

The pale blue data flowed in Jiang Xuezhou's pupils, and the slightly open mouth let out a fierce roar.

In order to operate the flight of the research ship more accurately, she connected her consciousness to the deep operating system of the research ship, and used the computing power of the spacecraft and all sensors, including the panoramic camera, to control it more directly!

She's completely out of the way!

Thinking of this guy's "deep-sea phobia", Ye Shi couldn't help but feel a little distressed, but he didn't know how to help.

At this time, Fang Chang's calm voice came from his ears.

"Night Ten! Let Jiang Xuezhou not have to slow down, just throw us directly near the broken mouth of the starship! ”

Ye Shi was stunned and blurted out.

"Fuck, you're crazy, aren't you?!"

This isn't an airplane!

The speed and inertia are no joke, let alone knocking people into flesh, and a bad person disintegrates in mid-air before his feet hit the ground.

Fang Chang continued in a calm voice.

"This is the option with the highest chance of winning, the nitrogen cylinder should have enough reverse force to slow us down before we get close to the target, and we can also share some of the firepower of the point defense system...... Compared to everyone dying in the same boat, with my method, I can always make it in alive! Don't grind, hurry! ”

Hearing the urging in that voice, Ye Shi didn't dare to hesitate, and hurriedly looked to the side and shouted.

"Snow Continent! My teammates said, when you get close to the starship gap, you don't need to slow down, just open the hatch! ”

Jiang Xuezhou replied without thinking about it.

"Are your teammates' brains shaken apart?! Or is it the wrong tendon?! Do you think this is an airplane?! ”

"But there's no other way, is it! There is no way to slow down in this situation...... Listen to me, it's best for you to fly straight over that gap and drive all the way in the direction of the bow. ”

Looking at Jiang Xuezhou, who was still hesitating, Ye Shi took a deep breath and said in a serious tone.

"I believe you...... Calculate with your expertise and try to get them in, please! ”

Jiang Xuezhou gritted his teeth and closed his eyes tightly.

"I'll try ......"

Truly.

There is no way to slow down in the current situation, so you can only take a risk!

As long as the deceleration distance is sufficient, they may not be unable to rely on the thrust of the nitrogen cylinder to complete the "autonomous merger".

Just as Jiang Xuezhou changed his strategy and accelerated towards the gap in the side of the starship, Luo Yi, who had just walked to the bridge and sat down, was admiring the elegant "dancing" through the dusty floor-to-ceiling window.

At that time, the silver-gray research ship was indeed played by the insects of the wasteland, but so what?

Seeing that the dying and struggling little insect suddenly began to accelerate, a cold smile appeared on the corner of Luo Yi's mouth.

"Insect carving skills."

He was a soldier of the Aerospace Force, so he could naturally see the plans of these people at a glance.

Want to log in?

He won't let them get their way.

Closing his eyes, Luo Yi, who was sitting alone in the captain's seat, slowly spoke.

"Starship Master Control."

A gentle electronic sound drifted into his ears.

"I'm here."

Looking at the research ship that was getting closer and closer to the Orion missile cruiser, he ordered with a blank face.

"Fire a neutron torpedo."

"I'm sorry, I'm afraid this distance is not appropriate, with the killing radius of the neutron beam, you will also be affected."

There was a hint of hesitation in the gentle voice.

As the onboard AI of the starship Orion, it must first and foremost think about the safety of passengers.

Luo Yi had an unconcerned expression.

"It doesn't matter, do as I say."

The captain's order was absolute.

Even if there is a conflict between the order and the safety regulations.

The shipboard AI only hesitated slightly, then approved Luo Yi's repeated order and activated the torpedo that had been hanging on the launch pad for nearly two centuries.

Although the torpedo had fallen into disrepair and even the sensors had failed, it was still no problem to blow it up.

There is no need to aim at such a close distance at all.

They're dead!

At the same time, after some dodging left and right, the scientific research ship finally flew to the side of the Orion starship!

Without a trace of hesitation, Jiang Xuezhou immediately opened the hatch of the scientific research ship and lifted the safety locks of the seats.

Under the effect of inertia and air pressure difference, the power armor sitting on the chair was like a spinning top, drawing a parabola and smashing into the starship that was close at hand.

"Steady! Brothers! ”

"Hold on to the nitrogen cylinders in your hands! Squirt in the direction of the starship! ”

"Where's the starship?!"

"Gross! I'm going to throw up—"

One thing to say, Jiang Xuezhou's calculation of the trajectory is still very accurate, and it is not surprising that most people can fall into that small hole.

However, the process of throwing was so brutal that even the Awakened could not stand it.

The situation of the agile players was slightly better, and Fang Chang relied on the agility talent "Bullet Time" to hold the nitrogen cylinder for a while, and barely made the speeding seat stop spinning.

But at this moment, a flickering white light suddenly lit up from the dark deep sky, stealing his vision in an instant.

Is that......

Neutron torpedo?!

A burning sting came from the surface of his skin, and Fang Chang tried to call his teammates, but the communication equipment was out of order.

Objectively speaking, the power of this thing is greater than that of conventional nuclear weapons, after all, power armor is designed to deal with the nuclear, biological and chemical environments.

Although the "Xiaguang" power armor is produced and developed by the alliance itself, its performance is not much weaker than that of the pre-war power armor.

Especially with biochemical protective power......

The invisible blood bar faded away at a speed visible to the naked eye, and Fang Chang saw the silver-gray research ship crash uncontrollably into the wreckage of the Orion starship with the last of his eyes.

Like a fly with its head cut off, it crashed uncontrollably into the vicinity of the lower deck.

The sparks of the explosion bloomed.

He saw a flickering and tumbling flame, and he saw the shards of alloy flying in all directions.

His heart fluttered involuntarily.

He has never taken death seriously, and he has never been so afraid of death.

"No ......"

The game is not paused.

The next second-

The cold numbers had come into his eyes.

[Resurrection time remaining: 72 hours, 0 minutes, 0 seconds]
