After the message was played, Shen Jingheng shouted into the black box like crazy: "What's the matter with you, is it dangerous?"
However, there is no response.
This is just a piece of audio from a few light years away. It is impossible to guess how long this black box has traveled. Strange things may happen every moment in the universe, and time does not pass at a constant speed.
Shen Jingheng panicked. He frantically played the audio from the black box back and forth. Hearing Chu Yu's calm and methodical voice, sadness and anxiety crushed him like a boulder.
With the help of the director of the research institute, they finally saw the precious information Chu Yu left in the black box.
They logged in to the Worm Planet. Since Chu Yu had the experience of logging into the Worm Planet once, they carefully explored the road under their feet, trying to avoid places with a lot of crystals and minerals. Every time they explored an area, they would collect some soil samples from that area. .
This kind of exploration could not go on any longer - one of the members of the exploration team suddenly bled to death.
They didn't meet any insects face to face, Chu Yu just watched a living person suddenly bleed out of his body, twisted into a ball on the ground, and finally bleed to death, with a struggling and painful expression.
His death cast a cloud over everyone's hearts, because the death was so sudden that they didn't even know when he was parasitized by worms, or maybe it wasn't worms, but some substances on this planet that were harmful to the protoss. It is poisonous to humans.
Fortunately, the exploration team also brought some professionals from the research institute. While checking the cause of death, they continued to explore the insect planet.
The conclusion of the cause of death investigation came out quickly: the waters that the exploration team passed two days ago contained insect eggs. Like leeches, these insects feed on blood, and finally sneak into human blood vessels to lay eggs until the blood vessels are filled with eggs If the blood vessels cannot bear it, they will burst, and it will cause that horrible death.
The members of the exploration team have been very careful to wear isolation suits and splash in the water, but they are still unable to guard against the trick.
After knowing the reason, the panic among the exploration team did not decrease much—because no one knew whether their bodies were already occupied by tens of thousands of insect eggs.
The minds of those selected into the exploration team are strong enough, but some people still have mental breakdowns in the face of this terrifying, unknown and hopeless situation.
"...I want to go home, I don't want to explore anymore."
"Admiral, please withdraw the team, this planet is too terrifying, it is not the place we should come to at all."
Chu Yu calmly said a word, making everyone silent for an instant.
"Go back to our planet, and then bring new unknown bugs to the family?" Chu Yu said lightly, "...we have no choice but to exchange information with our lives. When we set off, we should do this well psychological preparation."
This sentence is like a boulder smashing into everyone's heart.
Indeed, they have no choice at all, and there is no turning back at all. They also don't want to bring this kind of thing back to their homeland... This will undoubtedly make the homeland that is already in danger worse.
"Everyone... We may not be able to take anything back with us this journey." Chu Yu analyzed the current situation with everyone, "Our primary purpose now is to explore the Zerg race, and the more types of bugs we find, the better, so that at least we can give you a better life." The living left precious research materials."
Shen Jingheng looked at Chu Yu who was calmly analyzing in the video, his eyes were covered with a thick layer of mist.
He really wanted to rush into the video and grab Chu Yu and ask him why he always made such righteous decisions.
Maybe to be more straightforward... When making these decisions, have you ever thought about how painful it would be for him to lose him.
The exploration was still going on, Shen Jingheng looked at Chu Yu with red eyes and they were actively looking for all kinds of Zerg like a death squad, and the team size was quickly reduced from a hundred to ten.
Blood and human lives were exchanged for one kind of unknown bug after another, some were grotesque, some were gigantic, some were equipped with plasma cannonballs, some came and went without a trace, and some were transparent... Finally, when they hit by mistake... On this day, they broke into the planet's Zerg core lair.
Here, they saw the most beautiful and terrifying bug.
It's not so much a worm as it is a lump of transparent slime. The slime can transform into anything it sees—including protoss.
The moment Chu Yu saw it, it was as if he saw exactly the same himself.
If it weren't for the bug's gray eyes with no pupils, he would almost think he was looking in a mirror.
The Chu Yu transformed from the mucus confused everyone, but Chu Yu felt that his consciousness seemed to have left his body, and his body was completely out of his control!
He has always believed in science, and has never believed that anyone has a soul in his body, but now he really feels that his consciousness has been separated from his body.
"Chu Yu" stretched out his hand to him and moved it in the void. His consciousness drifted towards "Chu Yu" unconsciously, and he could even look back to see the out-of-focus eyes of his body.
"Chu Yu" made a voice he couldn't understand, and seemed to be speaking a language he couldn't understand.
And as the sound came out, he saw a layer of extremely complicated rune inscriptions appearing around his body, wrapping around him, as if providing some kind of energy.
Chu Yu could still think, his mind was spinning fast. Seeing is believing, even if he no longer believes in the existence of magic, ghosts and gods, he must believe at this moment.
He was getting closer and closer to "Chu Yu", only to see that "Chu Yu" had turned back into that lump of transparent slime.
As soon as Chu Yu's ideological foot touched the transparent slime, he felt the pain of burning his soul instantly.
Chu Yu used what he could imagine to explain the situation at the moment. If he guessed correctly, this bug was using his consciousness as nourishment and was devouring his consciousness... In terms of fantasy, it is spiritual power.
After removing all the impossible, the only possibility left, no matter how outrageous, is the truth.
What they are facing is not a race with the same civilization and technology as them, but a race whose civilization and technology far surpass them!
Chu Yu struggled to escape, the more calm he became at this time. Since it is mental power, as long as he is not afraid, calm down, as long as he is not controlled by this lump of slime, he may be able to control this lump of slime in reverse!
Chu Yu stabilized his mind, his eyes were firm, and he stared at the lump of slime. For a moment, the two of them really formed a tug-of-war posture.
Others aren't so lucky.
The continuous exploration day and night has already made them mentally exhausted. They were already filled with determination and despair, but when faced with this lump of slime, they were left with a sense of powerlessness.
Their consciousness was easily sucked away by the mucus, leaving behind the shells with open eyes, which were slowly entangled into cocoons by the spider-like insects summoned by the mucus.
Seeing the end of his companion, Chu Yu was in a trance for a moment, and seemed to be no longer so determined.
The mucus seized this opportunity, pulled Chu Yu's consciousness and approached him suddenly, a force surged out of Chu Yu's consciousness to stabilize his figure, and then, Chu Yu's consciousness broke the mental bondage of the mucus, and he With a sudden bump into his body, he was finally able to control his body.
Without hesitation, he took off the flash bomb attached to his waist and threw it at the slime, then quickly turned around and escaped from the Zerg nest, and ran desperately to the starship.
In this exploration, he lost all his companions in the exploration team, and in exchange for the most precious information—if he guessed correctly, this lump of transparent slime is the owner of this planet.
When the master is in danger, the entire Zerg race will rise up and resist.
Sure enough, when Chu Yu just came out of the lair, the bugs in front of him had already piled up into a mountain...
The insects, densely packed like stars in the sky, made Shen Jingheng's scalp numb in front of the video.
Chu Yu had no way out.
Everyone watched the video with bated breath, and everyone's hearts sank. No one thought that Chu Yu could survive the siege of insects.
Chu Yu himself didn't believe it, so he took out the black box and recorded the words that were conveyed.
After doing all this, Chu Yu took out a jade flute, sat down calmly on the spot, and put the jade flute to his mouth.
There was a relieved smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he had finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The sound of the flute came out of his mouth slowly. It was a familiar nursery rhyme called "Lullaby".
The lullaby came out slowly from the black box, and the last scene on the screen was those crazy bugs pounced on Chu Yu—
The sound of the flute stopped abruptly.
Shen Jingheng's heartbeat also stopped the moment the flute stopped.
After a long time, he shouted heart-piercingly: "No!!!"
Tears welled up in his eyes, and his heart was torn into countless pieces. He angrily smashed the black box to the ground: "I don't believe it! He won't die!! He won't die!!!"
Shen Jingheng rushed out of the door, broke into the starship pilot system with a full face, and found the adjutant.
Seeing Shen Jingheng's appearance at this moment, the adjutant was terrified, he looked like a god of evil.
"You... what are you going to do?"
Shen Jingheng directly released Alpha's coercion, and with his pure blood, the adjutant's knees softened and he knelt down in front of him.
"Live to see people, die to see corpses." Shen Jingheng said coldly, "I will never live alone."
The adjutant wanted to stand up to stop him, but was pinned to the ground by Shen Jingheng's coercion, unable to move.
"Are you willing?" Shen Jingheng looked into the adjutant's eyes, "You can enjoy the information that the admiral sacrificed his life for with peace of mind, but you, as his adjutant, are here to make a living here. Do you deserve to be his subordinate?"
The adjutant felt a pain in his heart: "This is the general's order... We should follow the overall arrangement. If possible, I even want to die on the battlefield with him, and I don't want to hide here like a deserter."
"Then give me the right to pilot the starship." Shen Jingheng said coldly, "No one in this world loves him, and no one is worthy of what he has done for this galaxy. The pawns and umbrellas in your eyes are my most cherished The person... you don't love him, I will love him."
The adjutant struggled for a moment, then simply turned his head away: "I haven't seen you today."
"Thanks."
Shen Jingheng went straight to the starship, when he heard the director of the research institute calling him.
He turned his head slowly, and the director of the research institute ran towards him driving the first-generation mecha.
"There is nothing that can support you, I'm sorry, although this is just an experimental product, at least it's better than bare hands."
Shen Jingheng glanced at him gratefully: "It's enough."
The director of the research institute is all eyes red: "At least let the admiral walk less lonely."
Shen Jingheng was silent for a moment, and said: "I don't know why, but I have a strange feeling... He is not dead, and he is calling me from a distant place."
The director of the research institute was cruel: "Let's go! You will be found out that you are driving a starship without permission!"
Shen Jingheng nodded, and boarded the starship with the first-generation mecha.
He sat in the familiar driver's seat, looked at the seat beside him that should belong to Chu Yu, closed his eyes lightly, and when he opened them again, there was only a dead silence in his eyes.
"Wait for me, here I come."
[The author has something to say: Shen Jingheng: Maybe this is telepathy.
Chu Yu: ... Mysterious.]
