Chapter 182: Hope of Escape



After counting silently for ten seconds, Wu Qingqing rushed towards the part of the insect man connected to the signal tower like a rocket.

This powerful knife, like tearing open space, a weapon that can penetrate dozens of centimeters of steel plates, couldn't possibly not cut through anything. Even if it couldn't cut through anything, it didn't matter because the signal tower was also down.

The knife cut off the tip of the signal tower and also cut off the connection part of the mutated acid-spitting worm.

Wu Qingqing grabbed the part of the insect tissue that was about to slip off, pulled it out, and cut it into dozens of pieces with the Insect Killer to prevent it from parasitizing.

After processing this part of the tissue, Wu Qingqing looked back at the tower. This look made her almost vomit.

It was full of people, lots and lots of people, but many of them were dead, and had died horribly, as if they had been melted in acid.

She wanted to retreat, but soon she discovered that there were still people alive.

There were children and people in military uniforms. They climbed out of a tattered mecha safety cabin, wearing outdated space suits.

Why are they here?

It's a miracle that he was able to survive for so long without being discovered.

The few people who were still alive in the tower cried out, the top of the tower was broken, and the hope of life finally came.

Many of them died, but only here could they survive temporarily.

Their signals were blocked, so they could only rely on those few supplies to survive.

I originally thought that no one would be able to find them before they died.

Wu Qingqing accidentally broke free from the prison shackles.

Xiao Wu: "Human life response signs detected in the tower, whether to rescue or not."

Wu Qingqing looked at the insect people swarming around her. The acid-spitting insect was almost recovering. It might have absorbed energy and mutated, becoming even bigger.

She didn't know what to do.

We can only ask for help from support ships.

"You found humans in the signal tower?" The officer was incredulous.

"I'll send someone in. Can you hold on?"

"Sir, stop joking. I'm alone. How can I hold on? I can't even provide rescue." Wu Qingqing suddenly looked at the uniformed men below, thinking that maybe they could really hold on.

Wu Qingqing has four mechas, two of which are custom-made and have locked onto genetic signals, so no one else can pilot them.

But she also had a mecha given by her family, which was a brand owned by the Xue family. She had only used it occasionally when she was cleaning up the ruins, and it was basically idle at other times.

We should try our best to save them. Whether they can continue to live depends on their own will and ability.

Otherwise, she alone can't protect them all.

Wu Qingqing took out a space button and put it into the conveyor belt, which sent the space button downwards.

Anyone can open this space button. The important thing is that after opening the space, brain waves are needed, which can also be called spirit. Only by connecting to this can you take things out.

There are activation methods for extending the Qi sense now, but that is something new and usually only people with advanced Qi sense can do it.

A soldier with relatively good physical fitness jumped out and took the space button.

He looked at the black wings above his head that looked like a miracle, and kissed the space button through his helmet.

They are still alive, even though there are only ten of them, it's good enough.

With a mecha, you can move more easily.

Wu Qingqing took a deep breath, then stayed with them and completed the rescue.

She can do it, she definitely can.

Wu Qingqing used to be very confused, but Su Xiaocai repeatedly told her not to regret any choice she made.

When survival and responsibility conflict, is it more important to stay alive or to save lives?

Wu Qingqing knew that at this moment, she made a choice that went against her nature and chose to save her life.

She also wants to be a general, so she has a chance of winning, and the soldiers below may be one of her future comrades-in-arms. Whatever the factor, it makes her not want to escape.

The soldiers in the tower who got the mecha arranged their departure.

As the escape was imminent, some people were dissatisfied with the arrangement because there were only two seats in the cabin and if more people were squeezed in, it would affect the driving.

So the mecha commander arranged for an older professor to sit in the rear safety seat. He had bad legs and feet and was dizzy, so he needed a relatively safe environment.

Others were tied with safety ropes and hung outside, and they were kept warm by space suits, so they could survive it.

Among the remaining ten people, there were five soldiers, a child about ten years old, a woman, a businessman and his secretary. They originally came to the mechanical planet for transit and stopped by to check out the nearby mines.

The one who has an opinion is not someone else, but the woman.

The woman is the child's aunt, and the child's aunt means that she was holding the child in the safety seat, so that two people could sit in it.

Everyone’s health can’t stand the stress now, especially the professor’s health, so there can’t be any delay.

There is a chance to escape, but you still have to argue about it.

The soldier really didn't want to argue with her. Saving lives involves trade-offs. The professor was their man and had fallen into a coma, so the back seat had to be his.

The lady danced around to show her unwillingness, saying that she and her nephew were women and children, and everyone else should give in. She didn't want to hang out there like bait.

But no one paid attention to her shouting. No one could hear her anyway. She was just making gestures. No one knew what she was trying to express.

She has no right to make any decisions.

The rescue rope was forcibly held, and the others were afraid that human selfishness might lead to accidents, so they did not connect them in series, but tied ropes separately.

They were strapped to the chest of the mecha, with a shield in front of it, which served as a layer of protection.

The woman thought angrily: "If something unexpected happens, she will definitely ask for compensation."

The woman's nephew looked at his aunt's clenched fists helplessly. Although he was still young, he already had forehead wrinkles. He knew what his aunt wanted to say without having to guess.

When she was in the signal tower, the woman thought about compensation more than once. She didn't even think about the fact that in the war with the insect people, accidents are almost equivalent to death.

How to claim for death.

The ten-year-old held his aunt's hand.

The woman thought he was afraid and held his hand. The blood relationship made it impossible for her to let go of the child. The child's behavior was very heartwarming.
