Chapter 99 The Dilemma of the Imperials
Qiao Ye raised an eyebrow, "You won't treat me differently just because I'm a girl, right?"
Xie Chen laughed and said, "How is that possible? No matter who you are, you are our brother."
Qiao Bang was still doubting his life and did not respond.
Xie Chen said, "Oh, I have something to tell you. When Qiao Bang and I were driving our mechas just now, we encountered a local sentry... Qiao Bang, you go on."
Qiao Bang was devastated.
Xie Chen sighed: "Forget it, let me tell you."
Xie Chen told Qiao Ye and Lu Chi about the special geographical location of this wasteland planet and how difficult it was to leave.
Lu Chi pondered and said, "In other words, there's no way this planet's communications can be transmitted. The probability of the Empire finding us is extremely low?"
Xie Chen said: "That's what I mean. There are three black holes surrounding the waste planet Saturn, which means that all signals between us and the empire will be swallowed by the black holes.
It's difficult for us to contact the Empire, which means it's difficult for us to leave the wasteland.
Unless, there is a scientist on the wasteland planet who can overcome this difficulty. But the probability is very small."
Lu Chi's expression turned serious.
Qiao Ye said, "If the secret sentry dares to come here with us, there must be a way to leave. Don't lose heart."
The three teenagers nodded slowly.
After hanging up the phone, Xie Chen was thinking about Qiao Ye's matter.
"Could Qiao Ye be Lu Chi's fiancée?" Xie Chen suddenly asked.
Lu Chi blurted out "your sister" which made Xie Chen feel a little concerned.
Maybe this isn't an insult.
Qiao Bang raised his head dejectedly, "What did you say?"
Xie Chen said speechlessly: "Forget it, I can't count on your brain."
Qiao Bang was angry and depressed. "It's okay for Ye Zi to attack me, but why are you attacking me too? Xiao Chengzi, we agreed to be brothers for life, don't turn into a woman too."
Xie Chen looked over with murderous intent, "Get lost."
Qiao Bang immediately sat up straight, his expression serious and solemn.
"What did we just say? Let's go to Spider City and help Leaf kill bugs and get the insect nuggets, right? Okay, let's kill the bugs and head to Spider City now!"
…
Area C012 of the wasteland planet Saturn is a mining area.
Most of the more than 50,000 people from the Empire who were teleported from the Imperial Mecha Competition Arena are serving in this mining area.
Yi Yuanhua pushed the mining shovel on the waste Saturn and mined without a break.
Liang Guang came over and said, "Old General, we've been trapped here mining for several days by the native sentinels of Waste Saturn. Many people are dying of thirst. If they don't have water, they'll die."
As soon as they arrived, they were surrounded by the native sentinels of the waste Saturn.
Because there were too many ordinary people from the empire, veteran sentinels like Yi Yuanhua were unable to protect the civilians under such circumstances and had to surrender.
The local sentries searched them one by one, robbed them of their water and resources, and then threw them here to mine.
Now, except for Yi Yuanhua and other old sentinels who had hidden their space rings in advance and still had some water in their hands, everyone else had been thirsty for several days.
Yi Yuanhua dug out a water-blue gem. Liang Guang stared at it with his eyes wide open.
Liang Guang: "Is this the stone they asked us to dig these days?"
Yi Yuanhua held the aquamarine gem in his hand and said, "This is a blue crystal stone. It is very rich in water element."
Liang Guang said in surprise, "Blue crystal is a special mineral that can only be condensed on pure water planets. It has an extremely high water element content and can be said to be a compressed form of water. How could blue crystal appear in this dry land?"
Yi Yuanhua pondered and said, "Unless, this was originally a water-based planet with abundant water resources. Later, for some reason, something happened to the planet, and the water resources evaporated and disappeared. The abundant water energy was frozen in these crystal stones."
Yi Yuanhua looked at the blue crystal stone. The blue crystal stone was crystal clear and sparkled brighter than diamonds.
Liang Guang sighed and made a bold guess: "Perhaps this waste planet once had only one sun, but later it became two and was dried up?"
Yi Yuanhua nodded: "That's possible."
Yi Yuanhua handed the blue crystal stone to Liang Guang, "Try to see if you can absorb the energy of this stone."
Liang Guang tried for a long time, but it was no use. Yi Yuanhua also tried for a long time, but it was no use.
A few local sentinels passed by, and Yi Yuanhua immediately put the blue crystal stone into the hidden space ring.
Liang Guang leaned in closer and whispered, "Old Yi, what should we do next? Should we take everyone and run away?"
Yi Yuanhua: "It's not that I don't want to escape, but no matter where I flee to, there's no water on this planet. It's useless to flee anywhere. And we still have so many ordinary people here who need protection. It's better to hold back for now."
Liang Guang asked anxiously: "Then we should do nothing?"
Yi Yuanhua said: "Wait a moment, wait for an opportunity."
He looked up at the sky, "Ye Qiao and Lu Chi, those guys haven't come back yet."
When it was time to rest, the weather was scorching and there was no water to drink, so Yi Yuanhua and his men secretly took out some water to help the people. However, it was a drop in the bucket, and the people and sentries of the empire became irritable in the scorching heat.
Old Wu rushed over. "Old Yi, there's a fight over there!"
Yi Yuanhua sighed and stood up to deal with it.
This kind of thing is not difficult to deal with, but the number of these fights is becoming more and more frequent.
Everyone is thirsty, but they still have to work even though they are so thirsty. Now many people in the empire have suffered from heatstroke.
Everyone was desperate and exhausted, and their bad mentality was almost reaching its peak.
The situation is very bad.
In this dire situation, Yi Yuanhua stood up and said, "People of the Empire, I know it's not easy for everyone right now. But even if it's not easy, we must survive together."
There was a commotion down there, "Why talk about surviving? Without water, everyone will die!"
Yi Yuanhua sighed, "Everyone, calm down and practice Eight Section Brocade together."
"It's so hot, who has the heart to practice Ba Duan Jin?!" said an irritable sentry.
The sentinel's frenzy value was already high, and at this level, the sentinel would only become more violent than before.
"That's right. Right now, instead of thinking about getting wet, why is he practicing Ba Duan Jin? This old man is sick!"
Yi Yuanhua called out to some veteran sentries. "Come on, we'll lead the team. Let's practice Eight-Section Brocade first to calm our minds."
The old sentries stood in neat rows. They had experienced all kinds of storms and had a stable mentality, which was better than that of the young sentries.
"Lao Yi, we are ready!"
Yi Yuanhua said: "Let's begin. I'll lead the team. Preparation, first move, lift your hands to the sky to regulate the three burners..."
The entire elderly group began to practice Ba Duan Jin together in unison.
This uniform practice seems to have a charm.
Before long, some young sentinels slowly joined in and practiced behind the elderly group.
