Chapter 55: Accept your fate and be entangled for a lifetime
The battleship traveled through the universe, Shen Wei sat in the cockpit, staring at the operation panel.
The red dot on the panel kept approaching the preset coordinates. A subordinate spoke to Shen Wei, but Shen Wei said nothing, frowned, and occasionally looked outside the ship.
His expression was very serious, and the atmosphere in the entire cabin was depressing.
Soon, Chen Wei and his men arrived at the coordinates.
Chen Wei was the first to step out of the warship.
His men followed him out of the warehouse.
The location of these coordinates is a marginal planet that almost no human has ever set foot on.
At this moment, a certain area of the planet was in ruins, with debris flying and dust rising, and it seemed that there was no sign of life at all.
Shen Wei's face turned ashen.
Everywhere I looked, there were piles of rubble, and I didn't see any signs of the jump ship being attacked and crashing.
On the way here, Shen Wei had already learned the complete information of T.
Eight and a half hours ago, Jiang Yuan and his crew were on their way back to their home planet when they unexpectedly encountered space pirates roaming the universe. The pirates recognized that the jump ship was made on the planet of Ershixing and, wanting revenge, they bombarded the jump ship directly. The jump ship was shot down and landed on this marginal planet. Then, the pirates escaped.
Fortunately, the climate of this planet is not too bad, and humans have a chance to survive. What's more, they are all Alphas and their physical fitness is not too bad. The only thing to worry about is Jiang Yuan's body. During the jump, he had not yet woken up from his fainting state and was attacked again.
It is difficult to say what his living conditions are.
Shen Wei's face turned pale, and he suppressed his emotions. He quickly dispatched a team and took detectors to search.
However, due to the attack of space pirates, the information field was completely destroyed and the detector became completely ineffective.
Shen Wei took a deep breath, and he quickly changed his strategy. He sent a message for help to the headquarters, and then commanded the team to quickly find the person through primitive methods.
His men immediately took action, heading in different directions to conduct the search.
Chen Wei understood that this incident would not only affect his relationship with Jiang Yuan, but also the relationship between the two planets and the external image of Erhai Star. If they could not find Jiang Yuan and his group in time, they would have a hard time reporting back. Looking at the entire Erhai Star, Chen Wei's ability was obvious to all, and he had completed tasks perfectly many times. This was also the reason why his superiors sent Chen Wei to carry out the mission.
Relying on his keen intuition and rich experience, Chen Wei marked several places where the jump ship might crash and began searching from the most likely place.
This is an extreme test of the leader's ability. If the judgment is off, it is very likely to delay the rescue time, causing the rescued person to be in danger.
The fighters who received the order quickly went to the dangerous marked points to conduct search and rescue.
Looking at the backs of the team members walking away, Chen Wei rarely began to doubt himself.
Because he has no way of guaranteeing that his prediction is correct, and if there is no mistake in the prediction, it will only make the situation worse.
Shen Wei's physical condition did not allow him to conduct the search and rescue himself, but in self-doubt, Shen Wei decided to lead the remaining fighters to search other places.
Because Shen Wei found that he couldn't afford the gamble.
A station attendant advised him: "Colonel, leave the search and rescue mission to us, your health..."
Chen Wei didn't dwell on the words. He said directly, "You all, just obey orders."
As soon as these words came out, they could all sense that Shen Wei was in a very bad mood.
It is extremely rare for Shen Wei to show his emotions at work.
But as Shen Wei's subordinates, they didn't need to say anything more.
Time passed minute by minute, and Chen Wei led his men to search among a pile of rubble. Not to mention people, even the fragments of the jump ship were not seen.
Sweat began to form on Chen Wei's forehead, and he could feel his back was wet with sweat.
He understood that the later they found the person, the greater the danger they would be in.
Half an hour had passed and there had been no progress in the search.
Of course, there is also the worst possibility. After the jump ship is attacked, there is a probability that it will catch fire and explode. The hull fragments and people on it may be burned and sublimated by the high temperature, and disappear from the universe forever.
Shen Wei couldn't think any further.
The back of his neck began to sting, and the wound irritated his nerves due to his large movements.
Some subordinates came to persuade him to take a rest, but Shen Wei refused.
"I'll rest after the planetary support arrives."
The subordinate didn't say anything else.
Time passed, but there was still no sign of Jiang Yuan and his group.
Shen Wei quickly contacted his superiors and confirmed that the intelligence was correct.
His body was a little unstable until Bai Xu led the support to this desolate planet, and he held onto Chen Wei's shoulders.
When Chen Wei turned around, Bai Xu saw how bad his face looked.
"You need to stop and rest immediately!"
Chen Wei broke free from him and said, "Bai Xu, start the search and rescue immediately."
"Can you please stop trying so hard? Look at how bad your face looks."
Bai Xu lowered his voice and quickly directed the soldiers to search and rescue.
"Didn't you say you didn't want to come to the front?"
Shen Wei said with a cold face: "I have the right to decide where I am."
"Is Jiang Yuan so important?"
Bai Xu asked him, a little emotional, exposing Shen Wei's persistence.
Shen Wei's pupils suddenly shrank, and his chest rose and fell rapidly.
"No......"
"Wake up! If you haven't found it after so long, it's probably gone!"
Chen Wei also lowered his voice and said, "The mission is not over yet, Adjutant Bai, you need to obey my command now!"
Bai Xu gritted his teeth and said, "Yes."
The search range gradually expanded, and Chen Wei also participated in it. However, while searching, a starship suddenly appeared on the horizon.
Chen Wei raised his head and recognized that it was the star pirate.
Before Shen Wei could react, he had already boarded the battleship and flew towards the pirates.
Because the battleship was traveling too fast, sparks flew in the air and it quickly crashed into the pirates.
The two ships were about to collide, but Chen Wei suddenly distanced himself from them, flew out of the warehouse with his men, and quickly landed on the deck of the pirates' ship.
In an instant, blood mist splashed everywhere, and Chen Wei led the fighters to invade the starship control room extremely forcefully and quickly.
The pirates who had returned to the crime scene to admire their victory were caught off guard.
They had never expected to run into rescuers! They had never expected to be severely injured by a madman!
Shen Wei's eyes were bloodshot at this moment, and blood was flowing down the blade of his sword.
His steps were a little shaky, but they couldn't completely conceal the Shura aura that emanated from him.
These pirates have no way to counterattack.
Using cold weapons on a starship is far more efficient than other weapons! Shen Wei is so skilled in using cold weapons that the unorganized star pirates are no match for him!
He swept the pirate away without blinking and put the knife directly to the captain's neck.
He shouted, "Now, take us to the scene of the accident!"
The pirates were helpless and were quickly subdued due to their large numbers.
After weighing the pros and cons, the pirate captain quickly took Shen Wei and the others to the scene of the incident.
He spoke tremblingly, "It's... right here."
Chen Wei narrowed his eyes and walked out of the control room. The planet under his feet was covered with rubble like a mountain, and the mountain next to it showed signs of having been bombed.
Chen Wei could almost guess that these pirates, in order to vent their evil desires, bombarded the mountain nearby after attacking the jump ship. The mountain shattered and the rubble rolled down, covering the hull of the jump ship.
His face turned livid and he said, "Keep an eye on them."
Afterwards, Shen Wei boarded the battleship from the air and then landed.
The moment he landed, the pirate on his head escaped again.
I can't care about so many things at the moment, saving people is the most important thing.
Chen Wei notified some of the fighters and quickly searched the area.
Shen Wei was no exception, he was searching among the rubble.
No...still no.
The tinnitus started to sound again. Chen Wei bent over, holding onto the gravel beside him, and barely managed to steady himself.
Bai Xu arrives and supports Shen Wei.
Shen Wei rushed towards the soldier who was looking at him and gave an order: "Keep looking!"
Moving the rubble took too much time and energy, so Chen Wei ignored the dissuasion and insisted on going with them.
Finally, after twenty minutes, someone shouted.
“Found it!”
Chen Wei quickly stood up and moved closer to the source of the sound.
They pushed aside the rubble and found a piece of cloth exposed.
Bai Xu shouted on behalf of Chen Wei, "Search this area! The rest of you, come and help."
Shen Wei had already arrived at the area. He leaned over and threw away the rubble with both hands.
It was not the fabric of Jiang Yuan's clothes. Shen Wei's hands moved faster and faster.
Bai Xu grabbed his hand and said, "Just leave this to them!"
Chen Wei was still stubborn and wanted to help recruit people.
Bai Xu whispered in his ear, "Calm down!"
Shen Wei said, "I am very calm."
"You're not calm at all!"
During the argument, the other fighters quickly dug out the people hiding under the rubble.
Shen Wei recognized him as Jiang Yuan's assistant.
The assistant had his eyes closed, his body was covered in dirt, his sleeves were burned, and his cheeks were covered with small scratches from gravel.
Extremely embarrassed.
Shen Wei's heart was beating fast.
He himself couldn't explain why.
Perhaps because he was nervous, he didn't dare to imagine what Jiang Yuan looked like now.
The people buried under the rubble were dug out one by one.
Jiang Yuan was the last one to be dug out.
Shen Wei walked to his side almost instantly.
Jiang Yuan's eyes were tightly closed, his face was completely bloodless, and his chest was only slightly heaving. Because of the accident, his shirt had been burned, and his arms were covered in blood and flesh, with obvious burn marks.
The people around them gasped and looked at each other.
Because they didn't expect that a consul would have so many old injuries.
In front of everyone, Chen Wei suppressed his emotions and tried to feel Jiang Yuan's breath.
Very weak.
It seemed like he would die in the next second.
It touches the heart.
The last time I saw Jiang Yuan in such a miserable state was when he was in prison.
No, Chen Wei had never seen Jiang Yuan dying like this.
He patted Jiang Yuan's shoulder and shouted in his ear.
No response.
Chen Wei turned his head and asked with a slightly changed tone, "Is the aircraft ready?"
Bai Xu said, "We'll be there soon."
"Notify the battleship to prepare the backup medical cabin immediately," Chen Wei continued, "Everyone else, come with me and evacuate the wounded!"
"Bai Xu, you stay and survey the scene."
Bai Xu nodded and said, "I understand."
"But can you...really do it?"
He looked away from Jiang Yuan's face.
Shen Wei still had some sense left and said, "Okay."
"We are currently on a mission, so try not to let personal feelings affect you."
Bai Xu said to him.
Fortunately, under Shen Wei's arrangement, the scene became tense but orderly. Everyone was busy rescuing and transporting the wounded. For the time being, no one noticed the scene of Shen Wei tightly grasping Jiang Yuan's hand.
Shen Wei said, "Okay."
Then, he and other fighters lifted Jiang Yuan up and squeezed him into the aircraft.
Soon, they arrived at the battleship, but Shen Wei felt that time was passing too slowly.
Until a professional medical fighter took Jiang Yuan over, Shen Wei followed them into the disinfection room.
Before entering the medical cabin, a physical examination and disinfection are required to ensure better treatment results.
Jiang Yuan's wound left red bloodstains on the disinfection bed.
The out-of-control pheromones filled the space, and Jiang Yuan had completely lost control of his body.
This is a very dangerous signal.
Medical staff took off his blood-stained pants and found varying degrees of abrasions and crush injuries on his thighs, calves, and even ankles.
Even his right calf was slightly deformed due to squeezing.
Shen Wei stared at their operations intently.
This is the first time I have seen Jiang Yuan’s body since our reunion.
Jiang Yuan's body was covered with scars, much more than before.
Shen Wei frowned.
The disinfectant solution drilled into Jiang Yuan's wound, which was a great stimulation. The disinfectant solution would stimulate the wound, causing pain to ensure that the person was conscious.
However, even if Jiang Yuan's entire body was soaked in disinfectant, he did not react at all.
It seems very dangerous. Jiang Yuan has lost his sensitivity to external stimuli.
The medical staff looked at each other and said firmly: "They need to be sent to the medical cabin immediately!"
Chen Wei followed them again, watching Jiang Yuan being slowly sent into the medical cabin.
The panel in the medical cabin quickly began to analyze Jiang Yuan's injuries.
Someone came in from outside.
He is Shen Wei's subordinate and reports the situation to Shen Wei.
"Commander, all the wounded have been taken into storage, the soldiers have been evacuated, and they can return at any time."
Shen Wei turned sideways and said to the medical staff, "I'm sorry to bother you here."
"It's my job."
Then, Shen Wei stepped out.
Now he can only consider the overall situation first.
He contacted Bai Xu and gave instructions for returning.
Afterwards, the battleship sailed to the star orbit and began to return.
The ship began to stabilize and Chen Wei temporarily left the command room.
He walked towards the medical room.
The temperature in the medical cabin was very low, but Shen Wei was completely unaware of it.
He walked towards the medical cabin where Jiang Yuan was.
The last time Jiang Yuan entered the medical cabin was when they were on a mission. At that time, they were still a team. Shen Wei abandoned Jiang Yuan and left him on the battlefield. Jiang Yuan was seriously injured.
When he returned to the city, Jiang Yuan was already in the medical cabin.
At that time, before so many things happened, he and Jiang Yuan had an uneasy relationship.
I did do a lot of bad things to Jiang Yuan.
Chen Wei pulled the corner of his mouth and thought, is this retribution?
He unconsciously placed his hand on the outer wall of the medical cabin.
Looking at Jiang Yuan through the medical cabin again, it turned out that so many years had passed.
Chen Wei was also surprised at his memory. He remembered things about Jiang Yuan so clearly.
He couldn't deny that the moment he found Jiang Yuan, his heart suddenly relaxed.
When he saw Jiang Yuan dying, he was undeniably nervous again.
In the medical cabin, Jiang Yuan's expression was cold, without even a hint of pain.
Chen Wei looked at his familiar features and realized that they had been entangled for so long.
Frankly speaking, if Chen Wei wanted revenge now, he could just delay Jiang Yuan's treatment and kill him.
He now has the power, and he can clear himself of all charges if he wants.
But when he actually did it, he couldn't bring himself to do it.
Looking at Jiang Yuan's face, he couldn't do it.
Shen Wei thought that he used to think that Jiang Yuan deserved to die.
But when Jiang Yuan was really on the verge of death, Chen Wei wanted to pull him back very much.
He couldn't face Jiang Yuan's death.
The medical room was silent, but a sigh was very obvious.
No matter how he pushed Jiang Yuan away, various situations would always happen to make Jiang Yuan come back to him.
It's like it was destined.
Once, he hurt Jiang Yuan, and Jiang Yuan also hurt him.
In the first half of their lives, they were almost even.
Chen Wei subconsciously touched the gland on the back of his neck, but there was nothing there.
He had already cleaned off the marks Jiang Yuan had brought.
He thought that this would allow him to sever ties with Jiang Yuan, but fate seemed to tell him that he and Jiang Yuan were destined to be inseparable.
Chen Wei looked at Jiang Yuan's lifeless eyes through the transparent glass and finally accepted his fate.
He thought that he might be entangled with Jiang Yuan for the rest of his life.
-----------------------
The author has something to say: Wei seems to have accepted his fate, but in fact he really has no other choice.
