Chapter 5 Pregnancy

  The battle is over!

  A huge cheer erupted in the cabin, this was the madness of escaping from death.

  No one died, nor was anyone even injured, and yet they were able to escape the nightmare! And it was all thanks to this young man in front of them who didn't look particularly strong, but rather somewhat frail.

  Whether it was the passengers or the working staff inside the Starship, they all had an unspeakable gratitude towards Yuan Xi.

  Under such a warm atmosphere, Yuanxi's expression did not relax at all. He helped the middle-aged woman who fell to the ground get up and then handed her over to her husband.

  Yuanchi knew, it's not over yet.

  As if to confirm his thoughts, the starship, which had already suffered two attacks, was hit again with a fatal blow, this time with an even more violent shock than the previous two.

  The passengers on the ship changed color one after another. At this time, the captain explained quickly: "It must be the federal patrol ship. They don't know our internal situation. After I contact headquarters and explain clearly, everyone can land safely!"

  The passengers who were originally a bit tense all let out a sigh of relief when he said this.

  Yuanyu was the only one who didn't relax his expression from start to finish, and his face was even more serious than before.

  The middle-aged woman had calmed down and noticed Yuanxi's expression. She asked with some concern: "Child, do you know something?"

  Yuanchi looked at her, with some hesitation in his eyes. He didn't know whether he should say what he saw or not. The rescue team outside wasn't there to save them; they had taken care of the thugs but were likely to die at the hands of their own people.

  Jian Yu Xi hesitated, and the middle-aged woman said: "Child, my name is Lin Su Yun, you can call me Aunt Lin. If it's okay with you, why don't you tell me first?"

  Yuan Xi looked at Lin Su Yun. Lin Su Yun appeared to be around forty years old, but she was well-maintained. However, her demeanor and attire revealed her age in small details.

  Lin Su Yun had black hair and eyes, very fair skin, and a pretty face, but her eyebrows and eyes were no less stern than those of a man. In fact, from her previous behavior of snatching the weapon, it can be seen that this woman's personality is strong and rational at the same time.

  Yuan Xi needed someone to think with him, so he lowered his voice and told how he overheard the conversation between Zei Tu and Feng Yun, and how Feng Yun remained unmoved, and finally how both sides broke down in their talks.

  Upon hearing this, Lin Su Yun slightly narrowed her eyes and said to Yuan Xi: "Can't tell everything, will cause chaos, then it'll be uncontrollable."

  Yuan Xi also thinks so, but it's impossible to let these people naively think they will be saved, and they need to save themselves, needing unity and cooperation to escape the crisis.

  "After weighing the pros and cons, Yuan Xi finally spoke up: 'Everyone, quiet down. I just heard the conversation between these two thugs and our Federation patrol team.' He paused for a moment before continuing: 'The negotiation was unsuccessful. The thugs forcibly cut off all contact with the outside world in the end, so we have no way of sending any messages out.'"

  Yuanchi clearly explained the situation, but at the same time he glossed over the entire course of events, shifting all responsibility onto the two dead culprits. It wasn't that Yuanchi wanted to protect General Feng Yun's reputation, it was just that he didn't want so many people to lose hope.

  In order to stabilize their emotions and give them the motivation to keep fighting, Yuan Xi told a lie. This was actually also his last effort to protect them. The fewer people who knew about this, the longer they would live.

  But even so, many people fell into a panic upon learning that they could not contact the outside world. Without contact, there was no way to convey their current situation, and the attacks from the outside would not stop. They were just a passenger ship; even if all energy was put into the protective shield, they could not escape this place and had no choice but to wait for death!

  These yuan streams also knew that he suddenly remembered the scene he saw in the power room, that long cylindrical tube that had been bothering him all along!

  Yuanchi quickly found the thing, he had just grasped it in his hand, when Lin Su Yun's pupils suddenly contracted, she pushed her husband: "Yucheng, you...you...look at this..."

  That middle-aged man named Yu Cheng looked back and was immediately stunned, his expression in his eyes was no longer just surprise but terror, his voice also trembled: "This... this... they actually stole it out!"

  Yuanyu Creek didn't understand, but from the expressions of these two people, he knew they must know what this was. After thinking for a moment, Yuanyu Creek pulled the couple into the engine room and told them everything he had seen.

  Lin Su Yun's expression changed, and finally she said to Yuan Xi: "Let your uncle say something."

  Yu Cheng was a very steady man, even though he had aged, his eyebrows and eyes were still maturely handsome, but he didn't smile or talk much, looking not too easy to get along with. He pursed his lips for half a moment before saying: "If it's this thing, we might be able to escape unscathed."

  He paused for a moment, then went on to say in detail: "This is the latest research project of the Federal Research Institute. It's an idea that breaks through the speed of light by more than ten levels. Using the antimatter in this energy rod to pull and distort space, recreate a distorted space, and jump onto it to achieve unimaginable super-high speeds. Most importantly, once we enter this recreated space, we can evade all attacks and currently there is no defense system that can stop us."

  Yuanchi heard something that he didn't quite understand, but at this moment there was no time for him to ask questions. He just knew that being able to escape was enough!

  But Yuan Xi suddenly thought, if they could escape, why didn't those two scoundrels hurry to leave instead of negotiating with the government? If the negotiation was unsuccessful, why didn't they rush to escape, but instead wanted to kill these hostages first? Even if they were ruthless and crazy, it wouldn't be to the point of making a joke out of their own names!

  Yuanxi expressed his doubts, and Yucheng explained: "This is because the antimatter in the energy bar is not enough to guarantee the survival of so many lives at the same time. The fewer the number of lives, the higher the probability of survival, so they want to kill all the hostages."

  "It's actually like this..."

  Yu Cheng also said: "This study is not mature, there are great hidden dangers. I can guarantee that the entire spacecraft will enter the distorted space, but I cannot ensure that we can get out of it. In that distorted space, we will not have consciousness and can only rely on the intelligent system of the spacecraft to fly. Whether or not we can get out is impossible to guarantee. Maybe we'll be lost forever in that distorted space."

  Yuan Xi was stunned, and the risk was unexpectedly so great.

  But what can they do? The attacks outside have never stopped, Feng Yun destroyed their communication system, and they cannot contact the outside world, they can only wait for death.

  One is having a chance to survive, and one is thoroughly dying; such a choice question doesn't even need thinking!

  Yuanchuan looked at Yuchen firmly: "Uncle, are you sure the operation will be successful? As long as we can dodge the current attack, we'll survive. As long as we survive, there's still hope!"

  There was no more time for them to hesitate, Yu Cheng looked straight at the young man in front of him and nodded solemnly.

  Yuan Xi took a deep breath, turned his head to Lin Su Yun and said: "Aunt Lin, let's go to the guest cabin. With such risks, everyone has the right to know, they have the right to make choices for their own lives!"

  Lin Su Yun nodded her head in agreement with what Yuan Xi had said.

  Yuanchuan came to the guest room, he excluded those obscure and difficult terms from what Yuchen said, only talked about the final result and the survival rate.

  His words had barely fallen when they were replaced by complete silence.

  Yuanchuan said, "We don't have any extra time to think about it. The protective shield is about to collapse, and once it breaks, we'll turn to ashes. Do you want to try to survive or just sit here waiting for death? I'm waiting for your answer!"

  After a brief silence, a loud "Live on!" rang out, followed by ripples like throwing stones into a calm lake. Waves of "Live on!" and "We don't want to die" rose and fell, everyone made their choice, the only choice.

  At this time, Yu Cheng walked over and instructed the captain: "Pour all the nutrient solution into the life support system, and everyone get into the escape capsule."

  Time is pressing, everyone has no objection, those who understand a little start to help prepare, and those who don't understand listen obediently to the command.

  It wasn't that complicated a matter, and in less than a minute, everyone had lain down inside the escape pod shaped like a coffin.

  Yu Cheng's familiarity with the starship left its pilots utterly astonished, as he alone was able to complete all the work of an entire starship, and the programs he set up in such a short time were extremely advanced, this is simply a genius among geniuses.

  Yuanchuan didn't understand these things, but he could see that Yuancheng's operation of the energy bar was much more advanced than those two scoundrels. He could bring out its maximum value and also increase their chances of survival by a lot.

  Finally, Yuan Xi also lay down in the escape pod. To say that he was not afraid would be a lie, but what else could he do? Many times fear cannot solve any problems, and instead it is bravery that faces them head-on that is the way to survive.

  The escape pod closed, Yu Xi felt that familiar pull, his consciousness gradually disappearing, he knew that Yuchen had successfully operated it.

  As consciousness finally disappeared, Yuan Xi had a small fantasy in his heart. What if this was just a dream? He woke up and returned to Earth, although he was alone, but his life was fulfilling, busy, and safe...

  Only he didn't know that when he woke up, he would face an even more astonishing fact.

  When Yuan Xi regained consciousness again, he knew that at least he was alive. The hatch of the escape pod was opened, and bright light poured in, making him squint his eyes painfully as he struggled to adapt to this brightness.

  He first saw Lin Su Yun, and the small luxury of returning to Earth was completely gone. He forced a smile and slowly looked around.

  This seems to be no longer inside the spaceship, in front of me is a very spacious room, looking at the material on the wall is completely unfamiliar, with fine lines and some subtle luster.

  Yuanyu was somewhat perplexed, he looked at Lin Su Yun, Lin Su Yun smiled and said: "Child, we're alive."

  Yuanchi nodded, he wanted to sit up, but suddenly felt his body was unusually heavy.

  At this time, Lin Su Yun came over and helped him up. Yuan Xi thought to himself, probably having slept for a long time, his body was numb?

  He cleared his throat and asked, "Aunt Lin, how long have we been flying? Where are we now?"

  Lin Su Yun paused for a moment before saying: "Child, about what's going to happen later, don't get excited and don't rush."

  Yuan Xi was a bit confused and didn't know what Lin Su Yun was saying. He simply said, "Auntie Lin, my name is Yuan Xi, just call me Xiao Xi."

  Lin Su Yun nodded slightly, with a complex emotion flashing in her eyes. After half a beat, she said: "We've been flying for eight months."

  Eight months!?!

  Yuanyu was stunned, it's been so long! Oh my god, they won't have flown to the end of the universe, will they?!

  This was completely beyond Yuan Xi's imagination, he thought that flying for a week would be the limit, who could have imagined that they would fly for eight months! Fortunately, they finally survived and did not drift away in the vast universe.

  Yuanchi let out a breath of relief, he stood up, his legs were slightly weak, and it took him a moment to recover, but then he realized that something was off.

  He... how did he get so fat!

  Wait, wait, he, what's going on with his belly?

  Lin Su Yun saw that he had finally discovered his abnormality and opened his mouth with difficulty: "Xiao Xi, you are pregnant."

  The draft was killed by me.

  But don't worry, Day More will be invincible!
