"Mom, I'm afraid."

"Be good, it will be fine, don't cry."

On the LCD screen, the refugees comforted and encouraged each other, praying for a miracle to happen.

Li Sheng turned his head and glanced at Hui Yu in surprise, not to mention how much empathy and compassion she had as a prisoner in the narrative cage (probably a non-human being).

These refugees are most likely just false images generated by the protagonist's effect room.

Hui Yu guessed what Li Sheng was thinking and explained: "Isaac mentioned that he once tried to rescue a boatload of refugees from the Zero Civilization. In the early stages of its development, this civilization used sublight speed navigation technology to colonize the stars. Due to the shortage of population in the colony, , the extensive use of robot labor has resulted in some robots becoming self-aware and demanding citizenship rights.

At this time, a civil war broke out on the home planet of Zero Civilization, and the nuclear war resulted in the death of a large number of people. The robot city-state located in the distant colonial star built warships and returned to the home star to help the government forces suppress the rebellion. Therefore, Zero Civilization decided to grant citizenship rights to robots.

This tattoo is used to distinguish machine citizens from native humans. "

Hui Yu stretched out his finger and pointed at the LCD screen. Some refugees had a pattern of concentric circles nested in triangles printed on the backs of their hands, while others did not.

"In order to maintain his personality, Isaac often talks to himself in his single cell, talking about memories he can still remember."

Huiyu said in a deep voice: "He did not explain the cause of the incident, but the result is unique. In the end, none of the refugees from the Zero Civilization survived, and they all died of a severe airtight cabin leak."

Robots don't need to breathe oxygen, and they can die from leaks in their airlocks, which can severely damage the hull itself and throw those inside into a vacuum.

That means time is running out.

Li Sheng turned to look at the bridge. At this time, the crew had already started their first space jump.

"The field guide is collecting Y-rays, and the current progress is 100%."

"The reactor is running at full power and is opening the space matrix."

"The space matrix has been opened, inertial control is activated! The stagnation field maintains the space-time flow rate of the entire ship!"

I saw the trapezoidal nozzle below the Blood Eagle emitting a light blue ripple, forming a dark vortex with a diameter of about 500 meters in front of the ship.

The battleship advanced at full speed and rushed into the vortex. The dazzling light of a star illuminated the entire ship. Everyone was kneaded and stretched like ramen noodles.

As if a moment had passed, and then hundreds of years had passed, the Blood Eagle suddenly appeared one and a half million kilometers away, which was five light seconds away.

It was only a few kilometers away from an enemy pirate ship.

Thousands of meters in space, there is no difference from face to face. Before the enemy warship could react, the Blood Eagle, which had already adjusted the direction of its gun muzzle, opened fire. The sixteen heavy cannons on the starboard side blasted out high-energy particle beams at the same time, hitting the target enemy ship.

boom!

The sound simulation system on the bridge of the Blood Eagle simulated the explosion sound effects of enemy ships in a vacuum.

"Everyone is here," the adjutant with rabbit ears shouted loudly: "Prepare for the second space jump! The field guide counts down two minutes and ten seconds!"

We can't wait any longer. In Isaac's memory, the Blood Eagle will be severely damaged, and the bridge may not be safe.

"I'm going to push the button, cover me."

Li Sheng said to Hui Yu in a deep voice, clenched his fists and released the Kirigakure technique.

sand--

With him as the center, the thick fog surged and spread to all sides, immediately filling the entire corridor and dispersing to the direction of the bridge.

"what's the situation?"

"Where did the fog come from?!"

"Is the gas line leaking?"

The crew of the Blood Eagle had no idea what was happening. Some thought it was a leak of high-temperature toxic gas, and they fled in panic. They soon discovered that the fog had no temperature.

Li Sheng followed the bridge terrain outlined in his memory, fired the bat grapple gun, bypassed the obstacles in the way, and went straight to the control console.

The soldiers on the bridge felt a strong wind blowing and subconsciously tried to stop him, but they all failed.

This [Protagonist Effect Room] has a similar effect to the [Misleading Room], but the difference is that the latter fabricates memories and creates illusions out of thin air. The former extracts existing memories from Isaac's mind, creates an illusion, and traps him here.

The reaction of everyone on the Blood Eagle was not their real reaction, but the reaction that Isaac remembered these people should have made.

Sudden——

Suddenly, a strong wind came, and the hair on Li Sheng's body stood up instinctively. He hurriedly twisted his body, pulled out a 170 straight knife from the void with the palm of his right hand, and slashed somewhere to the side with the knife.

Zheng!

The sparks produced by the metal collision flashed out in the mist.

Li Sheng felt his arms were sore and numb. He didn't bother to draw his knife to dodge. He replaced the grapple gun in his left hand with a nuclear lighter and sprayed a pillar of blazing fire forward.

The blazing flames briefly dispersed the dense fog, and Isaac was seen standing in front of Li Sheng like a rock. The skull's eyes were burning with blue fire, and his left hand made of black metal lightly caught the rusty sword.

He took off the cloak from his shoulder with his right hand, rotated it to catch all the fire pillars, then thrust it out, and grabbed Li Sheng's wrist through the layers of cloak.

As a metal skeleton, Isaac could hardly be said to be afraid of flames. He hugged the fire pillar to a large extent to protect the crew. But Li Sheng has not yet left the category of carbon-based organisms, and he will inevitably be burned if he is covered by the high-temperature cloak.

He turned off the nuclear lighter, popped out the mantis bone blade from his left arm, punched forward, and cut Isaac's chest and abdomen with the bone blade.

Tear--

The military uniform tore apart, exposing the metal skeleton inside and the fine and complex cables buried in the gaps between the bones.

The bone blade cut through several cables, sparks flew, and Isaac's right hand was also crooked, failing to grab the opponent's wrist.

Opportunity.

There was no fluctuation in Li Sheng's eyes. His multi-threaded brain was desperately calculating all factors, including the distance between the two sides, height difference, joint size, and floor bearing capacity.

Finally, it came together into a plan.

He took a half step forward with his right leg, and his upper body tilted toward the left and back, then twisted forward. While twisting, he swung his retracted left fist forward. Since the effective mass of the torso is much greater than that of the arm, it can exert greater power in this low-gravity environment.

The fist hit Isaac's jaw directly, and it rotated violently at the moment of contact, further enhancing its strength.

If this punch hit a person, let alone an ordinary person who had not been enhanced, even Leonardo, who was level 8 in the previous script mission and had undergone a lot of transformation, would have his jaw blown away, leaving only the upper half of his teeth.

However, it is unknown what material Isaac in the form of a skeleton is made of. He just tilted his head, and there was no fracture.

Squeak——

He pushed forward the palm of his left hand holding the machete rapidly, and the palm scraped against the machete's edge violently. He grabbed Li Sheng's right arm with sparks and lightning, and twisted it to the left. He was about to break his arm.

Li Sheng immediately stepped on the ground. The magnetic boots on his feet were originally fakes made by Hui Yu, and had no actual function. After he left the ground, he was in a low-gravity environment, and his body easily floated and rotated, removing Isaac's power.

The cooling time of the bat claw gun is three seconds. At this time, the cooling is completed. Li Sheng, who is suspended in the air, releases the handle of the rusty sword, shoots the claw towards the ground, and rushes to the red button again.

As the captain, Isaac knew very well that there was no person like Li Sheng on his ship. He threw away the machete and did not rush forward to stop the other party - he obviously did not run as fast as the claw gun.

Instead, he drew a gorgeous ceremonial sword from the right side of his waist and swung the sword diagonally.

In the real world, modern navies of various countries are also equipped with a ceremonial sword, which is often used in sword-granting ceremonies and has no actual function.

Isaac's ceremonial sword was obviously not just for show. The blade with green light cut through the air, constantly deforming and stretching in the air, and swung at the opponent's body like a long whip.

Li Sheng's bone arm guard sprayed a torrent of death curses, forcibly changing the trajectory of movement, avoiding the long whip by a hair's breadth, but also moving away from the red button.

"Increase the power of the bridge ventilation fan!"

The rabbit-eared adjutant's sharp voice was faintly heard in the thick fog. As the ventilation fan rotated desperately, the originally thick fog inevitably became thinner.

"Outsider? How did you get in?!"

The rabbit-eared adjutant gritted his teeth, his eyes fixed on Li Sheng who was slowly standing up. He reached for the pistol on his waist and shouted to the guards around him, "Hold it."

The word "he" solidified in the rabbit-eared adjutant's throat. Hui Yu took advantage of the thick fog to get behind the adjutant and strangled her neck. The metal in his left hand liquefied, deformed, and solidified, turning into a thin and sharp needle, hanging on the side of the rabbit-eared adjutant's temple.

"Everyone, don't move!"

Ignoring the rabbit-eared adjutant's struggle, Hui Yu firmly held her hostage in place and shouted, "Otherwise I will kill her!"

It seems that the adjutant has a very high prestige on the ship. The guards holding long guns and short guns on the bridge were at a loss, and their eyes turned to Captain Isaac.

"."

The metal skull was silent for a moment. At this time, the Blood Eagle battleship had just completed its first space jump and was still charging for the second jump.

A large number of enemy pirate ships fired torpedoes and missiles at this side like crazy. Most of them were blocked by the shattered hull or energy shield.

"Hyperspace jump engine, currently charged 31%."

"Hyperspace jump engine, currently charged 33%."

The mechanical voice of the battleship AI echoed in the bridge, and through the floor-to-ceiling windows, one could clearly see the chain of explosions and flames outside like the end of the world.

"I clearly remember the names and appearances of the 7,829 crew members on the ship. And the more than 1,300 refugees I took away from Zero's home planet and Proxima A."

Isaac spoke slowly, his voice hoarse and rough, "Who are you?"

Proxima A?

Li Sheng's eyelids jumped. This word has appeared several times. The first time was in the newspaper in the vending machine. The content of the article was that a local public school had a collective food poisoning of students.

The second time was in the newspaper obtained in the misleading room. The content of the article was that a group of unidentified terrorists detonated a nuclear bomb in the city center.

He stood up, shook his sore and numb arms, and simply put away the Mist Hidden Art. "Is Proxima A part of the Zelo civilization?"

"What else?"

Isaac tilted his head and said calmly: "You haven't answered my question yet."

"It doesn't matter who we are. What matters is why you, as a pirate, are so kind to rescue a group of refugees."

Li Sheng slowly took out an object from the void and said, "Just answer my question, and I won't use this thing to destroy this ship."

The thing he took out caused a commotion on the bridge.

It was a pistol, futuristic sci-fi style, dark green in color, with scratches all over the triangular barrel, and a broken glass sphere installed on the side of the gun.

The crew was dumbfounded, "Isn't that the captain?"

"Death Redemption?!"

This pistol is very famous, and everyone recognized it, and instinctively looked at the left side of Isaac's belt.

There is also a pistol of the same style there, almost identical in all places. The difference is that its glass sphere (the so-called stable superheavy element particle container) is not broken.

Li Sheng did not try to convince Isaac, telling him that this place was actually an illusion created by the [Protagonist Effect Room].

There are two reasons. First, according to Hui Yu, Isaac has been missing for three months and has been in the [Protagonist Effect Room] for who knows how many years. The degree of brainwashing is much more serious than him.

The second is to take out the gun and make Isaac himself doubt whether this place is real, which is much more effective.

Sure enough, after seeing another [Death-Born Salvation], Isaac, who had always been calm and serious, couldn't help but be shaken. The blue flames in his eyes trembled slightly, "What's going on with your gun? If I didn't remember, If it’s wrong, Star Sea Forger Baladin only made a gun.”

"Haha, you don't know this, right?"

Li Sheng smiled slightly, "Baladin also has a younger brother named Balazhen, who is also a forger, but not very famous. The two brothers once studied forging technology together, but they separated because their mother remarried. Together they are [Yiyan] Thimble, identified as: Mom Province].

He also made a [Death-Death Salvation] and gave it to me. The difference is that my gun is male and your gun is female. "

? ? ?

All the crew members were confused, thinking that in their interstellar era, "Journey to the West" had not been popular, otherwise someone would have stood up and complained, "There are male and female divisions, do you think this is a purple gold gourd with gold and silver horns? Come on!" Please apologize to Teacher Six."

Only Hui Yu in the audience guessed that Li Sheng wanted to use two [Death-Death Salvation] to stimulate Isaac's memories and make him think that this was actually an illusion.

Unfortunately, Isaac remained silent for a moment and said, "The reason why I saved the refugees from Zero Civilization is simple. They were my former compatriots."

As the owner of Deathly Redemption, Isaac clearly knows every data of this gun. Even if the glass sphere of the gun in Li Sheng's hand has been broken, he can still fire the last time.

The sealed environment of the bridge was enough to cause a devastating blow to the Blood Eagle, so he could only cooperate with the other party, "For some reason, I left there and became an interstellar pirate.

When I received news from them, I learned that the Zero Civilization was about to lose the Iron Plague War. These people on the ship were the last group of civilization fires that I could save. "

"Iron Plague War?"

Li Sheng caught the key word, squinted his eyes and asked, "What is that."
