Qiu Bai frowned as he looked at the group of bandits on the ground, their faces contorted and resembling both humans and beasts, bound together.
"Boss, what do we do now?"
"Go back first and bring Professor He back."
Qiu Bai nodded, then looked at Lu Yulan in Lu Yuanhong's arms. Her expression flickered, but out of trust in Lu Yuanhong, she said nothing.
Aside from Chu Rui, the only other person present who appeared normal was Green.
Green found the scene amusing, but Chu Rui and Qiu Bai exchanged a glance, their eyes flashing with worry. The doctor was already dead, so why had they entered the experimental state?
Could it be that Bai Shan watched them leave without pursuing them, just to wait for this moment?
Night falls!
An alarm sounded inside the spaceship. The moment it rang, Qiu Bai opened his eyes and went outside to see that the spaceship was swaying and had fallen into an unmanned state, with a fist-like wind whistling through the air.
Qiu Bai's eyes narrowed.
Before they could even make a move, Chu Rui appeared and said, "You go first, I'll handle things here."
Qiu Bai glanced at Chu Rui, "Be careful."
Turning away, she headed to the cockpit. The unmanned operation couldn't last long; if there were meteorite fragments ahead, a high-speed meteorite could destroy the entire spaceship and kill everyone on board.
It wasn't in autopilot mode and could avoid meteorites. Fortunately, there weren't many soldiers on board to begin with, so they didn't encounter many obstacles along the way. Before they even reached the cockpit, the swaying sensation stabilized, and Lu Yuanhong stepped out of the cockpit.
...
On the spaceship, the only four people who remained conscious began to ponder deeply as they watched the crazed pilot.
What's going on?
Chu Rui was puzzled, but deep down he had a very scary thought: he remembered that the Skeleton Commander seemed to have made contact with the two pilots because he was curious about the structure of this new spaceship.
They simply lost their minds and attacked indiscriminately, but unlike the Skeleton Commander and his group, they didn't become mutated humans.
Lu Yuanhong didn't have any ideas for the time being. He needed time. The scans performed on the leader and his team were done using robots that came with the spaceship. These robots weren't particularly advanced and could only scan for some simple symptoms.
Just as he was about to do something, the personal terminal rang, and Grandpa Lu's face turned very ugly.
Let's get straight to the point.
"Has something happened to you?"
Lu Yuanhong: "There's been a tiny bit of trouble."
He rubbed his wrist in circles, feeling agitated, though it wasn't outwardly visible.
Grandpa Lu: "Hmph! You're just pretending. I knew what was going on the moment you blinked."
"You don't need to come back here for now. Baishan sent a provocative letter, saying that a new virus has been spread among Lanlan and the others, and it can be transmitted through the air. The Empress is worried that you might..."
Ha, what a bunch of cowards. He only called to retort to the Empress, but he didn't expect it to be true. Bai Shan has been a coward his whole life, but he actually did something big.
"You're so stupid, you've been tricked again."
Lu Yuanhong: ...
"Yes, I understand."
"You know nothing!"
Grandpa Lu's newly grown white beard trembled. His original plan to hold his great-grandson had to be postponed again, and he was angry.
"I've contacted Professor He for you. He's waiting for you on Rose Star. He's doing some research, so you can just go there directly. We'll see when you're ready."
"You're useless; you can't even protect your own wife."
With that, he slammed down the phone.
Lu Yuanhong: ...
Qiu Bai touched the tip of her nose; she hadn't heard anything.
