"We can split up. You go find a car, and the three of us stay here and hold on. My spaceship has self-defense firepower, so it shouldn't be a problem to fight two robbers." Gu Chen said.
Jiang Ling smiled mysteriously, moved closer to him, zoomed in and out of the map on the tablet, and then said, "I've considered what you said. They might not recognize these animals, but don't you have any impression of them? Do you have enough ammunition for the bow gun? I don't think you would waste so much fuel to load several tons of heavy metal that you don't need on a regular basis."
"We do, but not much."
"How many?"
"Uh, a basic number. Um - less than two hundred. Okay, only sixty rounds." He hesitated for a long time before telling the truth.
"Have you ever practiced shooting under the influence of a gravitational field?"
"Of course. Even though I didn't win the training championship, I'm still in the top ten."
"Training in virtual space?"
"Nonsense, where else could it be?" He said this fluently.
Jiang Ling shook her head and said, "Then you'd better give up on this idea! From what I know, the evaluation criteria for simulation training is about 60% of the actual performance. Unless you are a true genius, even if you are a champion, in the real battlefield, the best you can do is barely pass. Speaking of which, I have some bad news for you - the spacecraft's fire control system is dead. I'll go back this afternoon to see if there are any materials worth salvaging."
After hearing this, Gu Chen's expression immediately wrinkled as if he had eaten a lemon. After a long while, he panted and asked, "How far away are those sharp-toothed beasts from here?"
"The earliest they can arrive is tomorrow morning, and the latest is the night after tomorrow," Jiang Ling replied. "Don't worry, as long as I'm here, they can't hurt us."
"Oh yeah, I almost forgot, you're psychically sensitive!" He pondered for a moment, then added, "Since your level is so high, why don't they come to rescue you? I saw on the news, all those big guys are surrounded by people. Why, when it comes to you, you're just a piece of trash?"
"Because—who says the ones standing in the light are the heroes?"
Who says you have to be in the public eye to be a hero? Jiang Ling's memories seemed to drift far away: she knew the names of the soldiers who died in the great post-war expeditions were so numerous that only their relatives could remember them. She knew the secrets of the Pangu spacecraft had never been revealed to the public, with only a memoir written by an eyewitness circulating online. She knew of a fatal safety accident aboard the Sun Ring III, where a violent solar event killed all 406 scientists on board. She also knew that workers had recently unearthed the remains of an ancient civilization beneath Mars, but the news was completely suppressed, and no one would be able to reunite with their families for the foreseeable future. She felt that everyone had been offended by his words, and a nameless fire burned in her heart, making it difficult for her to control her behavior.
"I don't want you to care!"
“Ouch!”
Hearing the noise outside, the two men supported each other and stuck their heads out of the command module, and saw a scene that would make them happy for the rest of their lives - the former captain who liked to put on airs was hung up and beaten by someone, just like an adult scolding a kid.
"That's enough!" Comrade Xiao Wang suggested.
"Yes, yes!" Gu Chen tried to cover his private parts. "That's enough. Although, I don't know where I am, ouch, I'm sorry, that's enough!"
"He is insulting the martyrs!" Jiang Ling shouted.
"What? He's looking for a fight?" The flight attendant also rolled up his sleeves.
Gu Chen immediately let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered: "It's unfair! It's so unfair to me!"
