In the boundless unknown space, the lights of the fourth group of warships were gradually swallowed up by the darkness, completely disappearing from the sight of Lin Yang and Que Tian, and continued to sail into the depths of the unknown the searchlight of the battleship, Lin Yang felt an indescribable sadness and loneliness in the endless darkness.
All I could see was darkness, not a single ray of light.
In this kind of environment, let alone external dangers, even if there were none, staying there for a few days would cause people to have all kinds of negative emotions.
There was no color, no light, and no sound.
A dead silence.
"Team leader..."
Suddenly, Que Tian spoke.
"I still have a few compressed biscuits on me, do you want some?"
Lin Yang was startled: "You still have this thing with you?"
"Haha, it's a habit. When I was in Taixuan, I often had to go to some harsh environments for training. Sometimes I couldn't eat for many days, so I developed the habit of carrying some snacks with me." Que Tian smiled, "But it's hard to bring other things, so I only have these compressed biscuits."
"Okay, then give me a piece. This stone sculpture will be gone in two days. Then I'll fill my stomach, have a battle with some life forms, and die a full ghost on the road." Lin Yang was not polite either.
With his and Que Tian's current physical fitness and strength, there would be no problem for them to go without food or drink for a period of time.
But the hunger still exists.
They have not yet reached the level where they can practice long-term fasting.
In other words, even if there is no danger, if you drift here for ten days or half a month, you will become weak due to lack of food.
In just over a month, they will starve to death.
Not eating for more than a month is the limit that super gene warriors of their level can endure.
However, their individual combat equipment contains extremely compressed life-maintaining fluid for emergency use.
One serving of maintenance solution can replenish the basic nutrients and water needed to maintain the body, and the effect can last for three days.
Each person's single combat device is equipped with enough to last for three months.
If a person is in an extreme survival state, with his own resistance plus this life-sustaining fluid, plus a tenacious will to survive, a person can survive for up to half a year.
Half a year is generally enough time to hold out until the Human Alliance comes to rescue.
Therefore, each person’s quota is limited. After all, there is actually not much available space in a single-person combat device. If more maintenance fluid is added, other functions will be compressed.
Moreover, compared to storing more life-sustaining fluids, more people would actually choose to take more energy.
Their philosophy is: instead of waiting for rescue, it is better to open fire and annihilate the enemy!
Some extreme members even didn't use the life-support fluid at all, and instead used it all to place two more energy modules.
In their words, it is better to die in battle than to live in misery!
Some people don't like the weak state of being kept alive by maintenance fluids, and prefer to fire directly.
If the energy is exhausted and the loss of energy supply to the weapons cannot resolve the danger, then it would be better to die in battle.
Because life support fluid tastes terrible.
To be precise, it’s not unpalatable, it’s extremely unpalatable!
It doesn't taste like food, it tastes more like medicine.
One bite and your stomach will churn and you’ll feel so nauseous that you’ll want to vomit.
And there is basically no difference between taking the maintenance solution and not taking it. It can only maintain the body so that it does not have problems due to lack of food and water.
The instinctive desire for food is still there.
The reason for this is not because of insufficient technical skills and inability to make the food more delicious.
This is mainly because relevant experts believe that if people are too comfortable in desperate situations, they will lose their perception of danger and reduce their instinctive desire to survive.
So, that thing was deliberately made to be extremely unpalatable so that people would always be alert.
Therefore, in the past few days, Lin Yang and Que Tian have not used the life-sustaining liquid.
Anyway, they are not going to die now, so neither of them wants to eat that thing.
Now Que Tian took out a few bags of compressed biscuits, which was a big surprise considering their current situation.
Although the taste of the compressed biscuits was not that good, it was delicious compared to the life-sustaining liquid.
In particular, compressed biscuits can bring a strong sense of fullness!
There is nothing better than a full belly.
"Here you go." Que Tian threw two compressed biscuits over. "There are exactly four left, two for each person."
"Haha, thanks." Lin Yang laughed and took the compressed biscuits.
Then, silence fell again.
Two more days passed.
"It's the seventh day." Lin Yang looked at the time and sighed: "In a few hours, this stone sculpture will be gone."
Que Tian nodded, and then said calmly: "In the past few days, the number of transparent life forms and new life forms has gathered a little too much. After the stone sculpture leaves, I estimate that they will swarm here. Maybe one wave of impact will tear us to pieces."
Lin Yang pondered for a moment, and suddenly said: "Quetian, what do you think? If we stay on the stone sculpture and hold on to it tightly, when it jumps, is it possible for us to leave here with it?"
"Hmm?" Que Tian was startled, and after a moment's hesitation, he said, "The stone sculpture is so strange, maybe we were separated at the moment of the jump."
“Who will know if you don’t try?” Lin Yang’s eyes were burning.
If there is a chance to survive, you should naturally try.
"Then let's give it a try!" Que Tian also became excited.
Soon, seven days passed.
"There are only five minutes left! Hold on tight!" Lin Yang took a deep breath.
The stone sculpture was so huge that no matter where they were on it, they were like a speck of dust, with no way of securing themselves with equipment such as ropes.
You can only rely on yourself to hold the stone sculpture firmly.
Soon, the last five minutes passed.
The stone sculpture also moved on time.
“It’s moving! The stone sculpture is moving!”
Lin Yang and Que Tian held their breath for a moment and became a little nervous.
Whether we can rely on the stone sculpture to escape from this area depends on this!
hum!
The next moment, an invisible force wave spread out, and the stone sculpture disappeared from its original spot.
but……
"Failed……"
A slightly bitter voice came out of Lin Yang's mouth.
At the moment the stone sculpture disappeared, an invisible force swept across its body, sweeping him and Que Tian down.
In other words, they were unable to use the stone carvings to leave the area.
Buzz!
It was at the moment when the stone sculpture disappeared.
A large number of transparent life forms rushed towards Lin Yang and Que Tian frantically!
It was as if a group of hyenas smelled blood and pounced on them madly!
"Team leader, fight hard."
Que Tian chewed some compressed biscuits, set up an energy cannon and fired, while at the same time pulling out a sharp blade and actively killing the transparent life form that was rushing towards him.
That's his weapon.
As a super gene warrior, Que Tian is better at close combat.
The same is true for Lin Yang.
The energy cannon has extremely limited killing power on these transparent life forms. It mostly uses the force of space to vibrate and slow down those transparent life forms as much as possible.
"Damn, these damn life forms are too tough, it's really hard to kill them!" Que Tian quickly shouted angrily.
Lin Yang smiled bitterly: "Their biggest characteristic is that they can take a beating."
"If this continues, we will be exhausted soon and there will be no chance of escape."
Even though he knew there was no chance of survival, at this moment, Que Tian still felt a little unwilling!
There were too many transparent life forms gathered together, and they were very resistant to attack. They surrounded him and Lin Yang in layers, making it impossible for them to fight their way out.
All the current attacks can only delay the approach of living beings and slow down the time of death.
"I really don't want to die at the hands of this kind of evil thing!" Que Tian shouted.
Lin Yang was silent.
suddenly--
"Team leader, please step back!"
Que Tian's eyes flickered, as if he had made a decision and asked Lin Yang to step back.
"What? What are you going to do?" Lin Yang couldn't help but frown.
"I am the genius of the ancient Taixuan Dynasty!" Que Tian only replied with this sentence.
Lin Yang was stunned at first, and then he understood what Que Tian meant, and asked in surprise: "Do you also want to use the power of the Forbidden God?" "That's right! Anyway, you will die sooner or later. Instead of dying, you might as well give it a try. I also have the power of the Forbidden God. After using it, I may be able to create a short escape route for you. You can take the opportunity to run."
Que Tian's eyes were dim, and a vigorous aura began to emanate from his body.
Lin Yang's heart was shocked, and he couldn't help but said: "Que Tian, you..."
"Team leader, there's no need to say more. There's no point in everyone dying here!"
As Que Tian spoke, the energy in his body became more vigorous again.
It already looked somewhat like what happened when Yuan Mo and Huo Sen displayed their forbidden divine power.
Lin Yang was silent for half a second, then stopped him and said, "Que Tian, maybe you can let me try first, and you don't have to use your forbidden power yet."
"Hmm? Team leader, what do you mean? Do you have any other means to deal with these life forms?" Now it was Que Tian's turn to be stunned.
"No."
Lin Yang shook his head, and in the face of Que Tian's puzzled look, he smiled bitterly:
"You should know what happened to me in front of the Universal Alliance Building, so let me try it first. That senior left me a life-saving item that can be triggered when I am dying."
Que Tian was stunned for a moment, and then said with a strange look: "No wonder you are so calm all the time, it turns out you have a trump card."
Everyone in the universe knew about the incident in which the silver-haired woman overwhelmed those old human monsters in front of the headquarters building of the Universe Alliance. Now that Lin Yang mentioned it, he naturally understood what Lin Yang meant.
Lin Yang didn't know whether to laugh or cry:
"How can I be calm? Although that senior gave me something to save my life, she is also in trouble and may not be rescued in time. Moreover, in this unknown space, I don't know if it will be effective, so I am not sure."
The reason why he didn't mention it a few days ago was because he was not sure whether he could use the life-saving item to save his life again.
As for the fat old man.
Totally unavailable here.
So Lin Yang was unsure and prepared to die here.
“In that case, then you try it first, team leader. If it doesn’t work, step back in time and I will use the power of forbidden gods.” Que Tian also restrained his strength again.
He was quite straightforward.
As long as there is hope for life, Que Tian naturally does not want to die.
After unleashing the power of the Forbidden God, he will surely die.
Lin Yang didn't say anything more and rushed directly towards the transparent life form.
He wanted to try to use the attack of the transparent life form to see if he could activate the life-saving item left for him by the silver-haired woman.
Soon, the transparent life form's attack hit him directly.
"hiss……"
The huge pain made Lin Yang gasp.
Puff puff!
Lin Yang directly confronted the transparent life forms in front of him.
It was just a series of confrontations that lasted for several minutes.
Lin Yang even turned off his combat uniform and endured the attacks of these transparent life forms, exposing himself to the brink of death without activating the life-saving item.
Obviously, the attack power of these transparent life forms is very special, or not strong enough. In short, they cannot trigger life-saving items.
"Forget it, Team Leader, you should save some energy and prepare to run away."
Seeing this, Que Tian sighed, increased his strength again, and was about to fully release the power of the forbidden god.
Lin Yang felt very uncomfortable.
He wanted to say something.
But in this case, any words are powerless.
"Team leader, get ready to run!!"
Que Tian’s momentum reached its peak and he punched around him.
Lin Yang was about to speak, but suddenly froze.
Que Tian's movements also couldn't help but pause.
I saw...
A huge, mottled, gold-plated toe suddenly appeared in front of the two of them.
Yes.
That's right.
The familiar stone sculpture appeared again!
As the stone sculpture reappeared, the transparent life forms that had originally surrounded Lin Yang and Que Tian fled in an instant.
Soon, just like before, he moved away from the stone sculpture and stood far away.
"This……"
Lin Yang and Que Tian looked at each other in surprise.
This stone sculpture is back?!
"What's going on?"
Lin Yang was a little confused.
Shouldn't the stone sculpture have followed the Suzaku, or rather, followed the fourth group of warships in the jump?
Why did you come back again?
Que Tian was also stunned for a long time, and then he shouted in surprise as if he had survived a disaster:
“Who cares! The return of the stone sculpture means we’re safe again!! Hahahaha, it seems like God doesn’t want me to die here!”
“……”Lin Yang was silent.
After a while.
"Quetian, this stone sculpture is not coming for you, right? It has been following the Suzaku ship before. Is it because you are on the ship?"
Lin Yang looked at Que Tian.
Que Tian was stunned for a moment: "Team Leader, isn't your speculation a bit too wild?"
"But apart from this possibility, there is no other reason why the stone sculpture returned."
Lin Yang said.
"When you were about to release the forbidden god power, the stone sculpture suddenly came back. Isn't this equivalent to saving your life in disguise?"
Lin Yang couldn't help but think about the situation at hand!
Que Tian was stunned again.
Lin Yang's words made him start to doubt: "Could it be that it's really because of me?"
"Have you been to an unknown space before?" Lin Yang asked.
"No, this is the first time!" Que Tian answered firmly.
"That's strange." Lin Yang muttered, and then said: "No matter what, at least we can get temporary safety now."
As he spoke, he glanced at the stone sculpture, then at Que Tian, and said:
"It's easy to verify whether this stone sculpture is following you. Wait another seven days. If the stone sculpture disappears on time again, then we can persist for a while after it disappears to see if it appears again. If it appears in front of you again, it will be verified."
Hearing this, Que Tian nodded, and then said: "What if he doesn't follow me, but follows you, the team leader?"
"Ah? This is impossible. It didn't appear in time when I was fighting with the transparent life form just now, but appeared in time when you were about to release the forbidden god power." Lin Yang frowned.
"Who knows? Anyway, it's just the two of us, so it's easy to verify. After seven days, when the stone sculpture disappears, we try to separate as much as possible and see who the stone sculpture appears in front of. How about that?" Que Tian said.
"This... is fine, let's just give it a try anyway." Lin Yang agreed without much hesitation.
Afterwards, the two stopped communicating, sat cross-legged at the feet of the stone sculpture, and began to recover and heal themselves.
Seven days passed in a flash.
The stone sculpture moved again and soon disappeared from its original spot.
"Team leader, fight separately. If the stone sculpture doesn't come back before its power is exhausted, I will release the forbidden god's power."
Que Tian took the initiative to lead away a large number of transparent life forms and away from Lin Yang.
Lin Yang dealt with the remaining transparent life forms on the spot.
"Last time, it took about ten minutes for the stone sculpture to reappear. This time, I wonder if the stone sculpture will reappear. If it does, in front of whom will it appear..."
Lin Yang was silently calculating the time in his heart.
Soon, more than ten minutes passed.
The stone sculpture actually appeared again.
And the location where it appeared this time was...
