Li Sheng stood on the gravity-sensing floor of the protagonist effect room, thinking.

The prisoners in the narration cage were all thugs or heroes who left their names in the sea of ​​stars, but here, they were and only were prisoners.

‘No wonder Isaac carved words on the bedside railings, no wonder the prisoner in the lower right corner cell became demented, every time he escaped from prison, he would tear himself apart, and after a few times he would be either crazy or stupid. ’

He stretched out his hand and gently brushed the gray-white wall of the isolation room. The wall was made of an unknown material, solid and smooth, without any potholes, as if he could hear the crying and roaring coming from inside through the wall.

Just as the metal sliding door was about to open, the wooden door at the back was pushed open with a "pop". Hui Yu stepped into the compartment. Facing Li Sheng's puzzled eyes, he said frankly: "How about you cooperate with me and escape together?

I have been in this prison for half a year. During this period, I tried to escape ten times. The most successful one was to press four engine room buttons in eight hours, and I was only one point away from the last room [Retracement Continuity].

The success probability of two people conspiring together is always higher than that of one person."

"."

Li Sheng's heart moved slightly, but he still said tactfully: "Each engine room will generate traps according to the escapee. Are you sure it won't increase the difficulty if two people are together?"

"Don't worry about this. The missing Isaac once said that he tried to escape with his cellmate in the lower left corner. The difficulty of the trap is the same as that of a single person. Secondly,"

Hui Yu raised his right arm, and the slender palm with gray skin gradually melted and deformed until it turned into a huge chainsaw sword.

Liquid metal? T-1000 robot? The problem is that she was drinking corn juice with great enthusiasm just now. Could it be some kind of cybernetics?

Squeak——

The metal sliding door in front of them opened completely, and what appeared in front of them was no longer a square room, but the bridge of a spaceship.

At this moment, Li Sheng and Hui Yu stood at the end of the T-shaped corridor. Officers and soldiers in military uniforms kept running past the intersection in front of them. They all wore magnetic boots on their feet. Every time they ran, the red and green lights on their boots would flash, firmly adhering to the metal floor.

The soldiers were clearly divided into different levels, and the pilots wearing helmets wore black uniforms.

The engineers who held up the communication device and shouted, coordinating the energy distribution of the engine and the ship's shield wore red uniforms.

The medical staff who transported the wounded wore green uniforms.

The maintenance personnel who installed multifunctional mechanical arms and repaired the damage inside the ship wore yellow uniforms.

These "people" looked strange, including purebred humans, cat-dog subhumans like those in the wasteland world, octopus-like creatures that could float in the air, and rhinoceros people with horns on their heads.

And the spaceship they were in seemed to be experiencing a fierce battle. The cables were sparking, the octagonal corridor was flashing red alarm lights, and the broadcasting system was broadcasting all bad news.

[The power supply of the artificial gravity system dropped to 9%, and all the crew members of the Blood Eagle immediately activated the magnetic boots]

[The starboard power room was hit by a missile, and the crew was repairing it. It still took 15 minutes and 13 seconds to repair it]

[There is an 8.7% light speed torpedo accelerating at the seven o'clock position on the port side. There are still 48 seconds before the impact. Shield energy has been allocated]

The corridor was in chaos, and no one noticed Li Sheng and Hui Yu in prison uniforms in the dark for the time being - because the gravity disappeared, the two had to hold on to the wall to avoid floating off the ground.

"Put away your weapons."

Hui Yu lowered her voice and reached out to grab Li Sheng's arm - her arm turned into liquid again, flowing and sliding against Li Sheng's skin, covering the prison uniform.

Maybe it was liquid metal, or maybe it was some kind of mercury magic prop whose principle was not yet known. After covering the prison uniform, this thing gradually changed color and turned into the yellow uniform worn by the maintenance personnel in front.

In addition, the liquid metal was also constructed into the shape of magnetic boots under Li Sheng's feet, fixed to the ground (in fact, there is no magnetic suction function, but a slot grows at the bottom, which can be stuck into the grille of the metal floor)

"Captain Isaac!"

An engineer in a red uniform ran quickly through the corridor and ran towards Li Sheng and the others.

Hui Yu immediately dodged sideways and came to a liquid crystal panel, pretending to be a maintenance worker reading the parameters. Li Sheng also understood and squatted on the ground to study the sparking power lines, muttering, "Hydropower is soft, thermal power is warm, nuclear power is hard, and wind power is soft"

He was not surprised by Hui Yu's liquid metal deformation ability. What he cared about was this spaceship named Blood Eagle and "Captain Isaac" in the engineer's mouth.

Isaac Lord, the former owner of Li Sheng's cell, the captain of the interstellar pirate, and the original owner of the perfect-level equipment particle release gun [Death Redemption].

According to Hui Yu's statement and the clues in the cell, this Isaac was unfortunately missing during the prison break. How could he appear in the [Protagonist Effect Room]?

Could it be that he was trapped like Li Sheng in the [Misdirection Room], thinking he was still in the normal world line and time stream?

The engineer in the red uniform didn't care about the two prisoners disguised as crew members at all, and continued to run straight to the bridge.

Li Sheng lowered his voice and asked Hui Yu: "What's going on? Why is Isaac here?"

"I don't know."

Hui Yu also had a tense face and whispered: "He almost couldn't remember his name at the end of the period. He didn't tell anyone about the last escape, and I don't know how he disappeared.

I have been through this [Protagonist Effect Room] several times, and I have never encountered this situation before."

Li Sheng looked around and noticed that the status of the Blood Eagle was clearly projected on an LCD panel.

This is a cigar-shaped, or cylindrical, warship, with a total length of 815 meters, a width of 152 meters, and a height of 223 meters. It has 16 large-caliber particle cannons installed on the left and right sides, and an ultra-long rail gun with the Blood Eagle logo spray-painted on the front. , in addition to a series of weapons such as sublight torpedoes, missiles, and close-range dogfighting drones.

The entire ship is equipped with energy shields and hyperspace jump engines, allowing it to jump between stars.

At a glance, Li Sheng could conclude that the technological content of this ship far exceeded that of the earth in the real world, and it could crush the new human civilization that had just begun to explore the star sea in the last wasteland world.

Not to mention robbing the ship, even stealing a cannon or grabbing a tablet used by the crew. As long as they can successfully return to the real world, it will be a huge fortune.

Organizations such as the Secret Service, the Global Occult Alliance, and even demon scientists will definitely lower themselves to cooperate with them and agree to all their requests in order to lead hundreds or thousands of years of technology.

money? It’s just paper, give as much as you want. Name the new aircraft carrier warship after yourself? It’s not impossible. Cancel the anti-addiction system for online games for minors

Well, strictly speaking, Li Sheng is still a minor, so he has to avoid becoming addicted when playing games every day.

The problem is

Li Sheng's mind is extremely clear. The killing scene will not leave such a low threshold and obvious loopholes that can allow players to reach the sky in one step. The narrative trick in the [Misdirection Room] almost turned the escapees into characters in comics, and the [Protagonist Effect Room] Not necessarily any better.

That's what I say, but it's really true.

Li Sheng moved his fingers slightly on the LCD panel to reduce the screen ratio.

Fighting against the Blood Eagle were thirteen smaller cigar-shaped warships painted with uniform pirate patterns. The two sides faced off at a distance of several light seconds, constantly launching torpedoes and missiles.

However, the hit rate of both sides was frighteningly low. Most of the missiles missed and passed by the Blood Eagle. A small number were intercepted by close-in defense guns and drones, and a very small number were able to hit the energy shield.

The real weapons of the two warships are the heavy guns on the left and right sides, as well as the bow.

In space, due to factors such as the center of gravity of the ship, the layout of the engine, and the angle of attack, the cylinder is one of the most reasonable configurations for the ship, even with shield technology.

At the same time, because space battles are three-dimensional and both sides of the warship are several light seconds away, observing enemy maneuvering units from a long distance will produce an observation delay effect, making it impossible to accurately determine the opponent's precise position.

As a result, observers can only roughly calculate the possible position of enemy mobile units (battleships, drones) in a few seconds based on the opponent's initial velocity, acceleration and other information, and fire in that direction.

This phenomenon is the space battle probability cloud.

Under this phenomenon, both sides of the space battleship will first rely on small units (cruisers) to launch sublight speed missiles and torpedoes to harass the other side, forcing them to reduce their maneuvering range, which is the probability cloud space.

Then use the battleship's main gun, which can really blast away the energy shield, to achieve a fatal blow.

"Isn't this back to the battleship era of giant ships and cannons? In the interstellar era, are you still keen on going backwards? Could it be that they are all P Club players?"

Li Sheng complained silently, started to think in multiple lines, and moved his fingers rapidly on the LCD screen, relying on the translation function of the killing field system to collect more information.

At the same time, he raised his ears and listened carefully to what was happening on the bridge.

"etc,"

A girl with bunny ears wearing a high-ranking officer's uniform stopped the engineer in red uniform and asked quickly, "Why are you here?! Didn't I ask you to repair the hyperspace engine?"

The engineer gave a military salute to the rabbit-eared girl and said bitterly: "The engine has been repaired, but the Y-ray energy storage devices of ionization chambers ①, ③, and ⑧ are seriously damaged and cannot support a long-distance space jump."

Although the Blood Eagle is a pirate ship, the crew members on the ship wear uniforms and behave like serious officers, and they must perform military salutes when speaking to their superiors.

"The farthest you can jump."

The rabbit-eared girl asked. At this moment, the Blood Eagle was one against thirteen, barely holding on. If the hyperspace engine cannot be repaired, the shield energy will be exhausted sooner or later.

The engineer replied: "800 light minutes, this is the limit distance, any further will cause the reactor to melt. However, at this distance, the enemy pirate group will catch up."

The engine is damaged and there is no way to retreat. Any further delay will just lead to slow death. The entire bridge fell silent, and everyone's eyes were focused on a tall figure.

It was a stalwart figure two meters tall, wearing a straight black and red military uniform, a hood on his head, a yellow ribbon hanging on his shoulder, a strange-looking pistol on his left waist, and a long sword on his right side.

Hui Yu silently poked Li Sheng with his finger. Just from the appearance of the pistol, he knew that the figure was Isaac Lord.

"."

Isaac, who had been standing quietly, turned around silently. He, or rather Him, was not a living person, but a skeleton made of black metal. There are no complicated lines on the surface, and there are faint blue flames dancing in the eyeballs.

"If long-distance jumping is not possible,"

Isaac spoke slowly, his mechanical voice indistinguishable from male to female was extremely majestic, "Can it support multiple short-range space jumps?"

The engineer nodded silently, "Multiple jumps will greatly shorten the total voyage. Based on a distance of 5 light seconds, the maximum jump is 7 times."

"Seven chances are enough."

Isaac stared at the three-dimensional space projection above the square table on the bridge and said calmly: "Everyone return to their posts. After three minutes, gather all the shields to the starboard side, jump to the rear of their last ship, and fire at the enemy ship with the starboard side. Then adjust the muzzle and prepare to jump again, directly jumping between the two enemy ships No. 12 and No. 13."

Everyone on the bridge of the Blood Eagle was stunned. The experienced officers immediately reacted. Isaac was going to survive in a desperate situation. Relying on short-range jumps, he jumped behind the enemy ship and used the enemy ship as a probability cloud cover.

After destroying a ship of enemies in one round of firing, he jumped directly to the middle of the two enemy ships and opened fire instantly with the heavy guns adjusted in advance on the port and port sides.

You must know that the biggest advantage of the Blood Eagle over the enemy pirate group is the ultra-high capacity energy shield carried by the large ship. At very close distances, the elemental particle heavy guns of both sides can exert 100% of their power, and the shield is useless.

Isaac's decision was similar to that of a gambler who went all-in at the gambling table. He was gambling the lives of all the people on the ship for a very small probability, and he was gambling seven times in a row.

After a brief moment of shock and confusion, all the crew members on the bridge, whether pilots or engineers, returned to their respective posts. There was no persuasion, no argument, and they silently executed the captain's extremely dangerous decision.

"This command ability is probably not surnamed Yuri." Li Sheng lowered his voice and complained.

"Who is Yuri?" Hui Yu asked, "Is he famous?"

"He is the cousin of Eula, the cousin of Yuna, the righteous brother of Ymir, and the master of the Tokiwadai Psychological Queen Shokuhou Misaki. He once invented a musical instrument called ukulele. I like to take the postgraduate entrance examination. If I fail, I will take the third exam."

Li Sheng talked nonsense, his eyes spanning the entire bridge, staring at the command room.

The bow of the Blood Eagle adopts an open design. A large number of senior officers and operators sit behind the operating table to coordinate and control the ship's artillery, communications, energy allocation, and engine power.

The console was filled with densely packed panels, joysticks, and buttons, but there was only one button that was bright red like blood.

According to the nature of the narrative cage, it was most likely the button for the [Protagonist Effect Room].

‘This Isaac is probably also a heroic figure, and he is still trapped in the engine room, unable to distinguish between reality and illusion. I can only find an opportunity to press that button while the chaos is going on. ’

Li Sheng’s mind raced, and his thoughts were focused on the inventory, focusing on [Thunder Horn] and [Deathbed Redemption].

The strength of the Blood Eagle’s internal structure was far inferior to that of the narrative cage. According to the description of the Thunder Horn, it was estimated that it could destroy the bridge, and at worst could cause a commotion.

Snap.

Hui Yu reached out and gently pulled the corner of his clothes, with a subtle expression.

“What’s wrong?”

Li Sheng turned his head and saw Hui Yu pointing his other hand at the LCD panel, which showed the emergency shelter cabin at the core of the ship, which was protected by heavy armor. Due to its special structure, even if the entire ship is bombarded by artillery, the emergency shelter will not be deformed or damaged.

In the cabin, there are hundreds of women, elderly people, and children.

They are dressed in ordinary clothes, physically healthy, and their faces are only panic-stricken, without the fear left by long-term torture and abuse. Some women even hold picture books and dolls, trying to comfort the frightened children.

These people are not like prisoners of war or slaves, but more like protected refugees.
