It was already dark, the sky was a dull color, and even the surrounding temperature had turned cold.
Jiang Zheyu discovered that the temperature on this desolate planet was extremely hot in the morning, but would suddenly drop at night.
So when the sun sets, it starts to get a little cooler around us.
The sky here is always shrouded in a layer of haze. Even when the sun rises, it seems to shine through a gray veil, and the sunlight that falls through the gray veil is not very intense.
Shan Xun grabbed Jiang Zheyu's hand and walked out of the experimental research base, transforming into a huge, luxurious, sleek black mecha at the base's entrance.
"Come up." The huge, luxurious, and sleek black mecha knelt down gracefully, causing the ground to tremble slightly. The massive mechanical mecha hand landed on the ground in front of Jiang Zheyu.
The mecha's nimble movements created a gust of wind, causing Jiang Zheyu's jet-black hair to flutter slightly.
Jiang Zheyu paused slightly before slowly climbing onto the black mecha's hand and hugging its thumb.
"Where are we going after we leave the base?" Jiang Zheyu asked.
The sleek, black mech had already taken off, creating a gust of wind, and then quickly flew away from the base.
"I'll take you to take a shower," Shan Xun said simply, "so you won't be upset when your face is covered in blood."
"?" Jiang Zheyu touched his face, which was covered in insect blood again.
She's gotten used to getting infected with gonorrhea blood after these one or two treatments.
She herself didn't react at first, but in the first ten days of the month, it was the other person who realized it first.
Jiang Zheyu thought he was going to take her to the underground water, and then she did as she pleased.
She recalled how the two buckets of groundwater from last night were truly bone-chillingly cold.
Wouldn't it be even more bone-chillingly cold to just go directly to the groundwater to wash?
Now that it's getting dark and the temperature is dropping, I wonder if she'll freeze to death in that underground water.
She felt she didn't need to take a bath, just wash her face.
Okay, then she just needs to wash her face.
Wouldn't he freeze to death if he used such cold groundwater for bathing?
The groundwater should normally be relatively cool, but perhaps because of this desolate planet, the groundwater here is extremely frozen. She doesn't know what kind of structure it has, nor does she understand it.
After agonizing over whether to wash her face or take a shower, Jiang Zheyu remembered Shan Xun's words about voluntarily leaving.
Not long after, she ordered him not to leave, but he didn't reply. Instead, he pulled her out and said he wanted to take her to take a bath.
So, is Danxun going to listen to her or not? Is she still going to leave? She won't give her a straight answer.
"Single inquiry, so are you still leaving?" Jiang Zheyu still wanted to confirm, so she asked again.
She didn't want to not see Shan Xun the next day, but instead face another unfamiliar orc.
The black, shimmering mech flew swiftly through the air.
A few minutes after Jiang Zheyu said those words, Shan Xun slowly replied, "I will obey your orders."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Zheyu was certain that Shan Xun would not leave, and she relaxed slightly.
Soon, the mecha landed on the ground.
Jiang Zheyu was also placed on the ground by Shan Xun. She jumped off the mecha's hand and landed on the ground.
After Shan Xun retrieved his mecha, he stood beside her, took her hand, and led her into the cave in front of them.
The cave was quite dark, and she felt it getting darker and darker. Her night vision was getting worse and worse, and without any light, she couldn't see clearly. It felt like a thick ink clouded her vision.
"Shan Xun, it's so dark. Do you have a light?" Jiang Zheyu couldn't see the road, so he could only hold tightly to Shan Xun's arm and follow his footsteps.
"The quantum computer also has a lighting function," Shan Xun reminded her. "It can provide light without being connected to the StarNet."
Because of the recent chaos of the flow of energy in space, the star network of the desolate planet has been cut off. The quantum computers cannot connect to the star network and are therefore unusable and unable to send messages. However, basic lighting functions are still available.
Jiang Zheyu also realized what was happening, silently fumbling with the quantum computer on his wrist, and then asked, "How do I turn on the lighting function of the quantum computer?"
After she finished speaking, the people next to her stopped, and Jiang Zheyu also stopped.
Dan Xun grasped her wrist, which was connected to the personal terminal, and lifted it up. Then, he used his other hand to operate the personal terminal.
Jiang Zheyu's vision was completely black, but his other senses became somewhat clearer.
The rough, large, and powerful hand grasped her wrist, seemingly with extreme ease, as her wrist inevitably brushed against his rough palm while operating the quantum computer on her wrist.
Shan Xun's hands were large and rough, and like his body, they were hot and calloused. It was uncomfortable to have your wrists held by his hands; it felt like being rubbed by uneven stones.
Actually, Jiang Zheyu had felt it when he grabbed her wrist earlier, but now that everything was pitch black, the feeling became even clearer.
However, it's understandable. They fight against the Zerg for many years and train constantly, so their skin naturally wouldn't be as well-maintained.
Jiang Zheyu felt the flexibility of Shan Xun's operation on the optical computer.
They became curious and asked what kind of beastman Shan was, given his exceptional night vision.
"Captain Shan, what is your beast form?" Jiang Zheyu asked curiously.
Dan Xun's hand paused only slightly before he spoke: "Wolf."
Jiang Zheyu pondered for a moment; wolves do indeed have excellent night vision.
However, she doesn't seem to have ever seen a wolf with purple eyes.
However, the eye color of the interstellar orcs is not necessarily the same as that of ordinary animals; it seems to be related to their respective bloodlines.
"Captain Shan, are you a wolf with purple fur?" Jiang Zheyu asked curiously, as purple wolves were even rarer.
Single inquiry: ...
"No." Shan Xun quickly turned on the lighting function of Jiang Zheyu's computer.
Soon, a beam of light was projected from the quantum computer on Jiang Zheyu's wrist.
Jiang Zheyu's thoughts were then pulled away from the question of what color wolf Shan Xun was.
After the optical computer could provide illumination, Jiang Zheyu consciously released his grip on Shan Xun's fingers.
I'm no longer bothered about what color wolf the single query wolf is.
Dan Xun glanced down at Jiang Zheyu's released hand, said nothing, and simply walked forward, his pace matching Jiang Zheyu's.
Therefore, Jiang Zheyu was able to easily keep up with him and walk alongside him into the cave.
