Interstellar Fairy Tale - Chapter 92
On December 29, 1128, the galactic calendar, the Golden Empire space fleet is about to return to the city of gold, the capital of the Empire. The coronation celebration of the new emperor of the Empire, Soran Edrich, will last for half a month. After returning to the capital , the officers and soldiers of the fleet still have the opportunity to celebrate, and the officers and soldiers who regretted missing the new emperor’s coronation are more and more eager to return home.
Compared with these imperial soldiers who are about to return, Shang and Ping, who are currently being held on a transport ship, are in a different mood. Unfortunately, of the original fifty-six Mars people, only eighteen were left at the moment, and the remaining thirty-eight were killed when they were waiting for an opportunity to escape. Shang Ping respected the courage of these people, but he couldn’t admire this kind of behavior that only relied on bravery and was completely unaware of his own strength. Of course, Shang Ping only dared to think about it in his heart, and he couldn’t say it out anyway, otherwise, his peers who had received Mars’ iron-blooded education since childhood would immediately strangle himself, a coward who “betrayed the spirit of Mars”.
However, among the remaining people, Shang Ping unexpectedly met Zhou Ting, a friend of the same period at Madoff Military Academy, who graduated half a year later than Zhou Ting. Entered the fighter detachment of the Twelfth Fleet, and Joseph also entered the detachment. Unfortunately, Joseph died in the previous battle, and Zhou Ting was also captured like Shang Ping. For the frustrated friend, Shang Ping didn’t know whether to comfort him with his luck in life, or to worry about his future captive life together.
“Shang Ping, what are you thinking?”
Zhou Ting sat next to Shang Ping and experienced the war, which made the boy who was dubbed the “princess” during school also smelled of gunpowder.
“It’s nothing.” Shang Ping looked at the dinner plate in front of him and had to say that the Golden Empire fleet treated the prisoners fairly well, at least their three meals were guaranteed. And after the failure of that reckless escape before, there was nothing else but a tighter room.
“I’m not used to these things.”
Zhou Ting looked at the bread and chunks of meat on the plate, as well as some brightly colored vegetables, and put down his fork.
“Although it doesn’t look very good, it still tastes good.”
Shang Ping indirectly reminded Zhou Ting that as a prisoner, he really has no qualifications to be picky. Besides, it is estimated that the people in this transport ship still know some of the eating habits of the Muse Galaxy, otherwise, the only thing in front of them will be. It will be a few nutrient capsules and a glass of water.
These soldiers of the Golden Empire don’t seem to have any hobbies in terms of diet. As long as they can maintain their daily physical needs, whether the food is delicious is not in their consideration at all. At least Shang Ping saw Soran Edrich eating over this capsule.
In comparison, the Muse galaxy people who still preserve the eating habits of the earth era, even the most rigorous and simple Mars people, seem extravagant and wasteful.
However, if Shang Ping could know the difference in the living habits of the Golden Empire in wartime and in peacetime, he would never have such an idea.
“Sure enough, people who are caught once have good adaptability.”
The hostile words came from another captured soldier. Shang Ping didn’t seem to hear it. He just continued to eat his lunch, eating each bite carefully, and the expression on his face did not change at all. Zhou Ting looked at Shang Ping and seemed to understand something. He stopped talking, picked up the bread, and took a bite.
“What? Guilt? You coward!”
It seems that Shang Ping’s cowardice and cowardice, his verbal attacks have been escalating, his irritability, fear, and confusion about the future since he was captured have all found a breakthrough. He used vicious language to attack his comrades who once fought alongside him.
“Oh, that Colonel Edgar who ran away with his tail between his tails is your adoptive father. No wonder he is just as cowardly and cowardly! Shame on Mars!”
“Enough!” Zhou Ting finally threw his fork over in anger, “Shut up!”
Zhou Ting’s anger irritated Black even more, and the two or three people around him seemed to be ready to move.
Shang Ping finally finished his last bite of vegetables, wiped his mouth, pushed the plate aside, stood up, walked to Blake a few steps before everyone could react, and punched Blake hard in the face. , and then pressed Blake to the ground with his elbow, holding a fork in the other hand, the sharp point was less than a few millimeters away from Blake’s eyes. Looking condescendingly at Blake, who was obviously stunned, the corner of his lips twitched, but his black eyes did not show any smile.
“What are you going to do?!”
The people around Black reacted and wanted to rush over, but were stopped by Zhou Ting.
“Your name is Blake, right?”
Shang Ping spoke calmly, as if he didn’t realize that as long as he used his hands a little harder, Black would immediately go to see Madoff White, who he most admired.
“Blake, as an adult, you should know that some words can be said, and some things can’t be handled, right?” Shang Ping deliberately added some strength, and was satisfied to see the other party’s face turning blue, “Remind you, At this moment, you are a prisoner like me! If you are as heroic as you say, why don’t you die with those guys?! Yes, I cherish my life, but this is not something you can use Why are you attacking me! Besides, you don’t have any position to attack the commander of a space fleet! Without him, everyone would die! Don’t you think we caught these guys with laser cannons and particle cannons? Going to attack Canon Fortress just to say hello and say how are you?”
Shang Ping’s tone was not high, even very calm, but the tense atmosphere in the room gradually disappeared because of his words.
Blake’s eyes widened unwillingly. If he could speak out now instead of being pinned down, he would definitely refute Shang Ping loudly, but he didn’t have the chance.
“Remind you again, Black, as a prisoner, you must be conscious. Instead of venting your worthless complaints and grievances on me, who is also a prisoner, it is better to think about how to go back and go back to Mars. Go back to your own home! There must be relatives waiting for you in your home, right?”
Back to Mars? go home?
“Can we go back?”
This sentence was said by another soldier who had been silent from the beginning until now. Compared to Black, he seemed lifeless, and the food and water in front of him had not been touched at all.
“you ask me?”
Shang Ping seemed to have heard some funny joke, looked at everyone in the room, “You don’t think I can give you the answer, do you think who I am, God?”
“Shangping…”
“The only one who can save you is yourself! However, if you continue to feel sorry for yourself or give up on yourself, then even if there is a god, it cannot save you.”
Shang Ping finally let go of Black, who immediately covered his neck and coughed loudly, looking at Shang Ping with a trace of fear in his resentment.
“What, do you want me to really break your neck? Or do you want me to poke your eyes out?”
Shang Ping raised his fork and gestured, Blake immediately turned his head, and his body trembled uncontrollably. But still unwilling to say: “You are sophistry, making excuses for your cowardice!”
Shang Ping laughed in a low voice, and Zhou Ting patted Shang Ping’s shoulder worriedly, “Are you all right?”
It was a pair of dark, almost bottomless eyes who answered him. The darkness disappeared instantly and became clear again, but Zhou Ting’s back couldn’t help but start to chill.
This is Shang Ping?
Or that he never really got to know the boy?
Due to the influence of the previous black hole, the fleet encountered a little trouble when doing space jumps, Harlan? Edrich listened to the advice of the engineer captain, and after entering the Imperial Star Domain, he chose a supply star to stop for a short time, repaired some battleships, and then returned to the capital.
The overhaul did not take too long, but it also made these soldiers of the Golden Empire, who were returning to their hearts, a little impetuous. This little episode that happened among the captives was passed into the ears of the captain of the transport ship for some reason. The escape of the previous captives was insignificant in terms of number and scale. However, if the remaining dozen people dared to If he did this, then the transport ship captain would definitely not escape the fate of being ridiculed by his colleagues.
“Can’t these incompetent alien **** be safe? Or should they all be executed.”
Very out of character for his appearance, this captain with a face that could almost be described as handsome, but his catchphrase was a rude word that would make even well-educated soldiers frown.
However, Tessa was still a qualified transport ship captain after all. He ordered the dozen prisoners to be held separately, at least, so that they could not quarrel. For the fleet that was eager to return to the down payment at that time, this order was undoubtedly very reasonable, and the dozen or so prisoners could not cause too much trouble, but Tessa did not expect that this order, and then let him. Very regretful.
Within a few minutes of transferring these Mars people, there were actually six daring Mars people who took the opportunity to **** the guards’ side weapons. If it wasn’t for the fact that these Mars people would not use the sidearms of the imperial soldiers, then, this The accident is likely to be an indelible shadow on Tessa’s military history.
“Damn it! Kill them!”
Tessa was furious. Even though he thought that these captured soldiers had a certain fighting ability and could be transformed to serve the empire, these unruly elements still consumed Tessa’s last ounce of patience.
In the flagship, Harlan? Edrich heard the “little thing” that almost drove Tessa insane from the mouth of the sergeant, and suddenly thought of going to see these warriors who had been captured from distant galaxies. Harlan is no stranger to these Mars warriors. He fought twice, although the situation was one-sided, but the heroism of the opponent could not be denied. Moreover, Shang Ping’s performance during his captivity also made Harlan very interesting. At least, Shang Ping was able to cut Giovanna’s neck that time, which made the imperial family more interested in these captives. .
After walking off the flagship with great interest, he saw more than a dozen Mars people being pushed down from the transport ship. Six people in the previous operation had been killed at the time, including that Blake. Shang Ping, Zhou Ting and others suffered the disaster of Chiyu. Shang Ping, who had already had a premonition of his own destiny, could only grasp Zhou Ting’s arm, and clearly felt the trembling of the opponent. They could die in battle, heroically. However, this irresistible killing still aroused human beings. The deepest fear of the soul. If he continued to be detained, Shang Ping would try his best to survive and then try his best to escape. In the current situation, these soldiers of the Golden Empire obviously wanted to kill them. No one can say indifferently that they are not afraid of death, because death is just around the corner.
Shang Ping began to seriously consider whether he would drag a few opponents on his back before he died.
Harlan’s footsteps stopped, because among these people, he saw a familiar figure.
“Thanks to the **** of luck, I will give a wonderful gift to His Majesty the Emperor.”
