On the lower deck of the ship, the walls and floors were all metallic and silvery.
Only in front of him, several laser beams locked a black-haired boy in the corner of the deck like a prison pillar from top to bottom.
The boy didn't look very old, and his face was still a bit childish.
His black hair with a little brown was softly attached to his cheek.
He sat cross-legged on the metal floor, staring at the laser line in front of him with a dazed expression.
It has been a while since he came to this interstellar world, and he is still in a state where he doesn't quite understand the current situation.
The world that could only be seen in novels, movies and comics is now truly displayed in front of his eyes, making him feel like he is dreaming.
He was just an ordinary student. It stands to reason that this age is the moment when he is full of vitality and youth.
Unfortunately, he can't fly.
Suffering from a strange internal organ failure since he was a child, he was already at the limit at the age of fifteen, and the doctor said that he could no longer sustain his life.
After hearing the doctor's conclusion, his parents gritted their teeth and decided to freeze him. He thought about waiting for more than ten years, when the medical science has advanced enough to treat his strange disease, and then thaw him out.
However, when he woke up, he went from the Earth era when the construction of the Mars base was just started, to the interstellar era tens of thousands of years later when star warships and spaceships can be seen everywhere.
So in fact, the original cryo-surgery failed so he was dead and then time-traveled
Or was there an accident in the original freezing operation that caused the original freeze to be thawed after 20 years, instead of thawing after tens of thousands of years
... It feels that no matter what the possibility is, his ending will be miserable.
The protagonists in novels, movies, and TV shows travel to ancient times, which is a rhythm where they can use their rich modern knowledge to play cool and pretend to be cool anytime, anywhere.
As for him...
Hehe, do you know what it feels like for primitive people to travel to modern society
Well, in this interstellar age, he's that primeval.
In fact, he is more inclined to the possibility of traversing than the possibility of an accident in the freezing operation and the thawing after tens of thousands of years.
Although it seems that he still has the same appearance and body as before, but his body is very healthy now, and what he saw when he opened his eyes was an old man with white hair, and the old man claimed to be his grandfather, saying that his parents died unexpectedly , now only the two of them are left.
But he just woke up and didn't understand anything, so he had no choice but to follow the old man.
At first, as a primitive man, he knew nothing, not even the common language.
The old man was very patient with his only grandson, taught him the common language, taught him how to use those daily utensils that were extremely high-tech for him, and also taught him some of the most basic things in this era.
He lived with his 'grandfather' in a small house for more than a month, and just barely got used to the life of this era. For some reason, the old man was suddenly anxious to take him away from this planet and go to... the Dar galaxy. See the old man's expression Said it seemed something serious had happened.
Naturally, he followed 'grandfather' obediently. When he got on the civilian spaceship, he was still a little excited.
After all, in his time—the stars and the ocean were every teenager’s dream.
However, before he had time to feel the taste of traveling in the sea of stars for the first time, the legendary interstellar pirates came calling.
Then the passenger spacecraft was blown in half.
Then he and 'grandfather' were caught.
Then he was locked up here alone as a cargo, and it was said by those pirates that he was going to be sold.
The black-haired boy sat in a cold corner, the metallic coldness penetrated into his skin through his clothes.
His head was resting weakly on his knees, his face was a little pale and bloodless.
During the few days he was imprisoned, the pirates didn't give him any food, they just gave him a small bowl of water every day, which made him dizzy and weak from hunger.
You really don't have to worry about my resistance.
The boy, who was so hungry that his consciousness began to blur, was thinking bitterly.
Even if you give me ray guns and laser swords, I won't use them at all.
… and don’t know how his cheap grandfather is doing now.
He thought in a daze.
Although the grandfather was a stranger to him, but during the more than a month of dazed and uneasy when he just woke up, this old man was by his side and taught him many things. He still really does not want that kind old man what happened.
Just when the young man was about to fall asleep while suppressing his hunger, suddenly, there was a loud bang.
The whole room shook violently.
It's like the pirate's warship hit something hard.
The loud noise and vibration woke up the young man who was about to be in a daze.
While the metal floor under his feet was still shaking violently, there were two more bangs.
It vaguely sounded like the sound of shelling, the entire floor suddenly tilted to the left, and the black-haired boy sitting on the floor slid to the left, and slammed into the metal wall with a bang.
it hurts! ! !
The boy touched his forehead that had been bumped into a big bag and shouted in his heart, feeling a little lucky.
Fortunately, the hull is tilted to the left, if it tilts to the right...
With lingering fear, he glanced at the dozen laser beams on the right that looked like railings, and then imagined how he had been cut into dozens of pieces by those laser beams...
Code... Hurry up to code the bloody and violent scenes in your brain.
The sound of fighting came from outside, gunshots, shouts, and metal impacts one after another.
The black-haired boy subconsciously wanted to stand up and go to the laser beam bar to check the situation.
But he hadn't eaten for a few days, he was very hungry, and he was weak all over. After trying several times, he couldn't stand up, so he could only use his hands and feet to move in the direction of the gate.
Just before moving to the laser beam bar, the sound of fierce fighting outside stopped abruptly, and the battle seemed to end in an instant.
The door of the warehouse was closed, and he couldn't see what was going on outside, so he felt very uneasy.
Just when he was staring hard at the closed warehouse door, trying to see through the hard titanium alloy door with his eyes.
Suddenly, there was a bang.
The metal prison door was opened.
Someone walks in.
Because he was sitting on the ground, his eyes fell on the lower part of the door, so the first thing he saw was a pair of long legs wrapped in black tights that looked even more slender.
But it wasn't thin and slender. On the contrary, the tight muscles on the legs tightly wrapped in black pants made those long legs present a smooth curve almost like a work of art.
The jet-black leather belt with a silver pattern showed off the tight waist, wide shoulders and wasp waist, and a tall figure. The silver and black military uniform seemed to be custom-made for this person.
Pat, clack.
The man stepped towards him.
The black military boots stepped on the metal deck and made a steady and powerful footsteps.
It was a young man who seemed to make the whole world quiet the moment he appeared.
A thin rope made of golden silk thread crossed the tightly buttoned black collar and clasped the cloak around his shoulders.
When the young man stepped forward, the light white cloak unfolded behind his slender body, flapping endlessly.
He was obviously wearing a silver-black dark military uniform, but the moment the white cloak was undone, it seemed to refract all the light, as if it was shining with brilliance.
Behind the laser beam bar, the black-haired boy remained sitting on the floor.
He raised his head, his slightly parted lips made him look a little confused.
His wide eyes clearly reflected the young man who suddenly appeared in front of him.
The black hair like the night fell on the man's snow-white skin, and the ends of the hair on his neck were hidden in the upright black neckline, and the inexplicable sense of abstinence in the general's uniform was magnified without limit.
Light-colored lips, a thin layer, like the color of cherry blossoms falling on the snow.
The man's face was dazzling to the extreme, and his snow-skinned star eyes almost gave people a feeling of beauty to the point of shining.
The slender eyes, with the corners of the eyes slightly raised, if they were on a woman's face, they would be a pair of extremely charming phoenix eyes, but at this moment, on this beautiful young man's face, they gave off an inexplicably sharp feeling.
Perhaps it was because of his eyes, when he looked over, there was always a layer of frightening coldness.
Standing there, his whole body was like a sharp knife out of its sheath, showing its sharpness.
The slender Danfeng eyes narrowed slightly, and the man looked down at the boy who was looking at him with a bewildered expression on the other side of the laser barrier.
"what is it call?"
With a movement of his thin lips, the man's voice was deep and cold, with no emotion to be heard.
"… what?"
"..."
Looking at the boy who looked at him blankly with his head up, the young man squinted his eyes no matter how he looked.
"Mute?"
"Huh?... yes?"
Realizing that the other party was calling his name, the young man subconsciously sighed and nodded.
The man hummed in a low voice, as if confirming something.
Then, with a swish, he pulled out the gun on his waist.
The moment he saw the gun in that handsome young man's hand shining with metallic luster, and the muzzle of the gun seemed to be swaying in his direction—
Almost instinctively, the boy lowered his head abruptly, holding his head with both hands.
To be killed!
His whole body tensed up, and his mind went blank.
There was a bang, and the gunshot was close to his ears, but not on him.
The boy holding his head and shrinking back looked up cautiously.
As soon as he looked up, he found that the laser beam bar that was blocking his eyes twisted a few times in the air, and soon disappeared.
He raised his head to look again, and found that the laser console not far away was smashed by a shot just now.
Seeing the boy holding his head and hiding behind him, the man raised his sword eyebrows.
But he didn't say anything, just slipped the gun back into the side holster casually.
He stood there, his posture straight.
So the boy who was kneeling on the ground and still holding his head with his hands looked even more embarrassed in comparison.
He looked down at the boy with a condescending attitude.
"From now on, you follow me."
He says.
That tone was neither a discussion nor a solicitation of the other party's opinion, it was just a notice.
The boy sitting on the ground looked up at the man, blinked, and blinked again.
Probably because he felt it was too dry, the boy couldn't help but licked his dry lips.
Just reacting from the fear of being killed, his fingertips were still very cold, and his mind was also very confused. What this man said made him very confused. He didn't know what this man wanted to do and what he wanted to do with him.
follow him? … What's the meaning? ... to be locked up in another place? To be this man's cargo? This good-looking man is also a pirate
But he is wearing a military uniform, so he should be a soldier, and he should not do things like human trafficking or slave trading... No, no, the old man who claimed to be his grandfather warned him to stay away from soldiers and not to approach them, now The soldiers of many local forces will do the same things as pirates and even more cruel...
The more the boy thought about it, the more confused he became. The sense of oppression from men was too strong and terrifying, which made him panic. He pursed his lips and thought for a long time, but he didn't know how to answer. But he didn't want to show timidity in front of the other party like this, and he didn't want to show a look of fear, so he tried his best to look calm and look at the other party.
So now, even though he looked at the man calmly on the outside and said nothing, in fact, his mind was already in a mess, thinking about countless answers and rolling around in it, but he just didn't know which sentence to choose to answer. is the correct answer.
Don't be afraid.
This was the only thought he was holding on to looking at that oppressive man right now.
Can't admit defeat, no matter what this person wants to do, showing cowardice will only make people look down on him more.
The boy stared at the man like this, and didn't speak for a while, so a subordinate who followed the man became impatient.
"Stinky boy, why are you in a daze?"
The red-haired subordinate slapped the wall hard and shouted at the boy.
"Call back!"
Frightened by such a slap and start from the red-haired subordinate, the chest trembling boy opened his mouth, completely lost his mind, and just rolled out a sentence.
"I think it's not good to pretend too much."
The black-haired boy who tried his best to create a relaxed atmosphere looked at the other party with extremely sincere eyes and said this.
After thinking about it, he quickly added two more words.
"real."
Young man: "..."
