Chapter 1742: rescue

It doesn't matter if Miss Jianniang's head is strong or not, anyway, she thinks headbutting people is a very interesting thing, and what Hao Ren is concerned about now is no longer the three pirate ships that fell into the planetary rift, but It was the white airship floating in the sea of clouds that looked like it was about to explode and disintegrate at any moment.

That ship is two circles smaller than the Giant Turtle Rock Terrace, but it is still considered a big ship. Perhaps it is precisely because of its huge size that it has good protection and damage tolerance, so that it can survive being attacked by a pirate ship. After bombing for such a long time, it is still barely able to maintain a floating state, but just looking at the miserable appearance of this ship at the moment, even if you think about it with gallstones, you can tell the fact that it can't last long.

There were countless large holes in the ship, and sparks sizzled along the metal parts of unknown use. The white sheet-like structure like a sail was hanging on the sides of the ship, and a large part of it had obviously been disconnected from the hull. The actual connection was lost, and only a little residual structure was barely maintained—Hao Ren didn't know what those sail-like things were for, but seeing the large number of pipes and lines broken between the "sails" and the hull could Understand, they must be super important.

Then this ship must be hopeless—unless the Laherian people have pointed out Nolan's black technology that only the steering wheel can repair itself.

"Come closer, be careful, don't accidentally knock them apart," Hao Ren directed Nolan to move closer to the white flying ship, "It always feels like the ship is about to fall right now..."

Nolan adjusted the angle according to her words, and approached the white flying ship cautiously, but the moment she started to move, the picture from the external monitor showed that the humanoid creatures on the deck of the white ship were in panic : They started running around in a panic.

The data terminal fell on the console with a thud: "... Damn it, hitting three ships in a row just now must have caused a psychological shadow on people. They probably think we are targeting."

Hao Ren felt that the data terminal had told the truth, and he looked at Nolan helplessly: "Look at you ruining your image... Find a way to send a signal of goodwill to the people on that ship, otherwise I'm afraid they will jump ship. "

Nolan thought for a while, then flashed his headlights towards the white flying ship not far away...

Charlemagne and his personal guards rushed onto the deck. The cold wind in the high-altitude open environment was separated by a magic barrier. Behind the translucent magic barrier, he watched the huge silver-white ship slowly adjust its direction. And moved closer to the White Pearl.

Everyone on deck—whether it was the experienced crew or the brave passengers who came up—all screamed.

Charlemagne also clenched the long sword in his hand for the first time. He witnessed with his own eyes how the silver-white ship crashed into three pirate ships—it was like swatting flies one by one, ruthless and unstoppable, although When it first attacked the pirates, it seemed that this might be an ally, but when it turned the bow to face this way, no one could not feel their legs go weak.

Then Charlemagne saw several bright lights suddenly appear in front of the silver white ship, and then flashed a few more times.

"Your Highness," a personal guard approached and whispered nervously, "Please leave here, this place is very dangerous..."

"Let everyone not panic!" Charlemagne said, "Don't do the stupid thing of abandoning the ship and escaping at this time, the silver-white ship should not be hostile."

"How do you know..."

"Can't you see that it's slowing down?" Charlemagne said angrily, "And it didn't turn on the lights when it hit those pirates before!"

While speaking, the bow of the silver-white ship suddenly opened a gap, and then a deafening voice suddenly came out of it: "Please keep calm and quiet the ships ahead... We are not hostile... Repeat , please keep the ships ahead..."

The panicked crowd on the deck of the White Pearl really calmed down at this time.

On the bridge of the Giant Turtle Rock Terrace, Hao Ren turned off the microphone and walked towards the exit of the bridge: "Come on, let's go down and meet the locals."

Liya was still a little dazed at this moment: "By the way, since your spaceship has speakers and language interpretation functions, why did you turn on the lights just now?"

Nolan explained with a bit of embarrassment: "I forgot about this new device—how could a normal spaceship think that there is still a loudspeaker on its head that emits sound to the outside world? Who is it listening to in space?"

Leah glanced at Hao Ren who was walking ahead, and then at Nolan who was left on the bridge with an embarrassed expression on his face, thinking: "This design is a bit confusing..."

Four humans, one man and three women, stepped out of the silver-white giant ship, using some kind of beam-like "magic" to arrive on the deck of the White Pearl—although they were dressed in strange costumes, the obvious human features at least dispelled Charlemagne. Doubts about "Guest from the Abyss" and "Ancient Wanderer".

Even if the other party crashes around in an airship that can't fly, at least they can communicate with each other inside, and since they can communicate, no matter how big the problem is, it won't be a problem.

However, Charlemagne still managed to control the urge to talk to the man and three women: Of course he hoped to understand the situation as soon as possible and establish communication with the silver ship that was most likely from a strange force, but the years of training He and education made him understand that he was no longer safe around him, and there might still be eyes from nowhere lurking here. In this case, he must continue to keep a low profile.

The personal guards also performed their duties well, scattered around seemingly randomly like ordinary passengers, watching everyone's movements on the scene.

After Hao Ren arrived on the deck of the "White Ship", his first feeling was that this ship must not stay still. The slight tremors under his feet and the obviously skewed deck all proved that this thing was about to lose power and control completely, unless the ship was on board. There is a group of black-tech damage control teams that can ride the boiler back to Hong Kong when the ship disintegrates. Otherwise, no one will be able to recover.

Of course, letting the self-discipline machines carried by Nolan come out to work may forcefully extend the life of this ship, and even if the life is extended too far, this ship will have the ability to travel out of outer space at thirty times the speed of light, but This is not what Hao Ren came here for.

"Who's in charge here?" he yelled. "Send someone to talk to me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that the crowd standing in the distance dispersed a little, and then a man wearing a long white coat, gray beard and hair, strong like a bear, accompanied by two crew members came to this side. come over.

"Below is the captain of the White Pearl, Borken Golian," said the strong old man who looked like a bear. "Thank you very much for your help. Excuse me..."

"Don't ask, let me ask. Time is running out," Hao Ren waved his hand, "Can your ship still be repaired?"

The old captain choked for a moment, but he replied quickly: "Frankly speaking, it can't be repaired, and it's only a matter of time before it crashes."

The surrounding crew members and a few passengers had sad expressions on their faces after hearing this sentence, but no one was shocked—the situation has deteriorated to this point, and those who dare to stand on the deck are basically aware of the situation in front of them. Those who still have illusions are still shivering in a ball in the cabin at this time.

This answer was expected by Hao Ren, he waved his hand: "Then don't waste time, come with me, board the boat!"

Without even a second of hesitation, the old captain turned his head and shouted to the first mate and the second mate: "Organize everyone to go on deck! Procedure No. 3, board the ship and escape!"

The sailors acted immediately and efficiently under the captain's order.

At this time, a cabin door not far away suddenly opened, and several dirty crew members ran out from it, followed by a long-haired girl in a long skirt—the girl was also covered in dirt. , Pieces of gray-black oil stains even covered the original color of that beautiful long dress. She seemed to be busy down there before, and she didn't know what was going on outside. At this time, she saw a huge silver-white spaceship floating in the sky, and the surrounding pirates went to nowhere. The girl's face was filled with astonishment.

She ran to the captain: "Captain Borken, what happened..."

"Miss Awenna," the captain said quickly without waiting for the girl to finish speaking, "The White Pearl is seriously damaged, we are transferring passengers, please follow my first officer, we are going to transfer to the silver-white flying ship Get on the boat."

The girl named Ai Wenna froze for a moment, her eyes quickly swept between the silver spaceship and Hao Ren, and then she noticed the serious expression on Captain Borken's face, and nodded slightly: "I understand. But my brother..."

"I'm here," Charlemagne walked quickly to Awenna's side, "Awenna, are you okay?"

"It's okay, the magic center exploded, but I'm not injured," the long-haired girl wiped her oily face with her sleeve as she spoke, and at the same time swept her gaze over Hao Ren and his party calmly, "Brother ,they are… "

"They were the ones who took care of the pirates," the curly gray-haired man said succinctly, "The White Pearl can't hold on anymore, we can only accept their kindness."

Aiwenna blinked: "...Understood."

Hao Ren watched the actions of these Laherian people not far away the whole time. In his opinion, the actions of these "air crash parties" were quite efficient. Although there were some panicked passengers, most of them were orderly. Execute the evacuation mission accurately, especially those crew members, who managed to follow the orders and prohibitions in such a chaotic and critical situation, and acted quickly and accurately, just like well-trained soldiers.

But because he didn't know the situation in this world, Hao Ren didn't know whether the performance of these people could represent the average level of Laherien.

He also noticed the long-haired girl who ran up from the lower deck and the young man with extraordinary temperament and gray curly hair, but his eyes did not stay on those two for too long—their clothes and the surrounding Ordinary passengers are not much different, and their words and deeds are also normal, and there is nothing worth caring about.
