Chapter 2066 Kidnapped?

It hurts, it hurts so much! It hurts so much!

At the moment of the explosion, Ye Ye's mind was completely occupied by this painful feeling. The powerful impact force surged from his back like a tidal wave, as if to tear his body into countless pieces.

Ye Ye's bones were vulnerable to this huge force, and almost all of them broke in an instant. The broken bone spurs were like sharp silver needles, piercing his flesh mercilessly, bringing waves of piercing pain.

However, this was not the most terrifying thing. Along with the shock wave came the terrifying high temperature generated by the explosion. The scorching flames were like a ferocious beast, baring its fangs and claws as it pounced on Ye Ye. In just a moment, Ye Ye felt as if his skin was being roasted on fire, and was quickly burned to charcoal.

This kind of severe pain made Ye Ye almost unbearable. His body was shaking violently because of the pain, and his consciousness began to blur. If it weren't for his extremely fast reaction speed and his desperate use of the Half-Phase Summoning at the critical moment, I'm afraid he and Lu Yue would be completely turned into ashes in the next few seconds by the terrifying high temperature and impact.

Although the dozens of layers of jade shields summoned by Banxiang arrived late, they finally wrapped Ye Ye and Lu Yue in time. However, Ye Ye's injuries were already very serious, and his body activated its self-protection mechanism under the serious injury. This powerful force was like a torrent, quickly submerging Ye Ye's consciousness and causing him to gradually lose control of his body.

............

"Brother Ye? Brother Ye!"

In a daze, Ye Ye seemed to hear someone calling his name, the voice coming from far away and getting clearer and clearer. He tried hard to open his eyes, but he felt as if his eyelids were pressed down by a heavy burden, unable to move.

Ye Ye took a deep breath, and used all his strength to gather the remaining strength on his eyelids. Finally, his eyes slowly opened a crack, and his vision blurred and swept around.

The surrounding environment was a little dim. Although it was not completely dark, the visibility was extremely low. A faint ray of light came from nowhere, barely illuminating the place. Ye Ye blinked, trying to make his vision clearer.

"here it is……"

Ye Ye's voice was a little hoarse, with a hint of doubt.

However, before he could finish his words, a sharp pain suddenly hit him, like a surging wave, instantly drowning his mind. Ye Ye frowned tightly, cold sweat dripped down his forehead, and the severe pain made it almost impossible for him to breathe.

"I don't know, we seem to be on a certain aircraft..."

When Lu Yue saw Ye Ye wake up, he immediately showed a hint of joy on his face. But then, he said with a headache.

Compared with Ye Ye, Lu Yue's injuries were obviously much lighter. After all, as the captain of the mining starship, Lu Donglai attached great importance to the safety of his son. He deliberately left some items for Lu Yue that could save his life at critical moments, which undoubtedly provided Lu Yue with additional protection.

Not only that, Ye Ye's reaction speed was also very fast. When the danger came, he quickly applied the Jade Shield to Lu Yue, which effectively protected Lu Yue from more serious injuries. Therefore, apart from a few fractures and a lot of superficial burns on his skin, Lu Yue did not have any other major problems.

However, Ye Ye's situation was completely different. His bones were broken beyond repair, and his internal organs were blown into countless pieces by the impact. There was not a single intact part of his body, which was covered with black blood scabs, and looked horrible.

However, surprisingly, Ye Ye could clearly feel that someone had treated him. Generally speaking, if he had not received treatment as soon as possible for a serious injury like his, he would have died. But now, he could feel that his injuries were gradually getting better.

"Aircraft? We... No, how could Planet 47 be attacked?"

Ye Ye muttered with a depressed look on his face.

"What bad luck! This attack was obviously not aimed at us, but we got hit for no apparent reason. This is truly an unprovoked disaster!"

There was a hint of helplessness and irritation in his voice.

Lu Yue, who was standing by, obviously also heard the depression in Ye Ye's tone, and he agreed with a wry smile.

"Who said it wasn't? I also feel it's unfair. But now it seems that we are being held captive."

As he spoke, Lu Yue raised his chin and motioned Ye Ye to look around.

Ye Ye's heart tightened when he heard this, and he quickly looked in the direction Lu Yue had directed. In this dim environment, besides the two of them, there were more than a dozen people lying on the ground in all directions. Some of them had their eyes closed, and seemed to be unconscious, but their breathing was still stable; while others had already woken up, their faces were full of fear, but they did not dare to make a loud noise, for fear of causing any bad consequences.

Ye Ye's eyes swept over these people, and suddenly, his eyes lit up - he actually found the barbecue stall owner who grilled skewers for them in the crowd! The owner was lying quietly on the ground like everyone else, and he didn't know whether he was unconscious or awake.

"I woke up the earliest, and a doctor wearing a mask who couldn't tell where he was came in. He was quick and professional, examining everyone carefully and then treating them. He seemed very worried that we would die, and that cautious attitude was a bit strange."

Lu Yue recalled the scene at that time and continued.

"I noticed a bright light above my head, coming from a small observation window. I climbed up and took a look out of curiosity, and found that we seemed to be in a small shuttle starship?"

Hearing Lu Yue's description, Ye Ye frowned tightly. He thought to himself.

"Captives? Does this mean that human trafficking also exists in the Hope Galaxy?"

The thought sent a chill down his spine.

Just as Ye Ye was thinking about how to deal with this situation, a painful groan suddenly came. The two of them were immediately attracted to the owner of the barbecue stall, who slowly opened his eyes three or four meters away from them. He had obviously just woken up from a coma, and felt severe pain all over his body, so he couldn't help but groan.

Seeing the barbecue stall owner waking up, Lu Yue felt relieved. He quickly walked to Liu Zhuangshi, squatted down, and checked his condition with concern.

"Uncle Liu, how do you feel? Are you feeling unwell anywhere?" Lu Yue asked softly, with a hint of anxiety in his tone.

Hearing Lu Yue's familiar voice, Liu Zhuangshi was stunned at first, and seemed a little confused. It took a while for him to come back to his senses. He took a deep breath and said with a cold breath.

"Ouch, my waist... hurts so badly, I feel like it's going to break. And my legs are numb too. Xiaolu, where are we?"

Facing Liu Zhuangshi's question, Lu Yue smiled bitterly, thinking that this question was really difficult to answer. He hesitated for a moment, and decided to repeat what he had just said to Ye Ye.

"Uncle Liu, I don't know the details. I just know that we seem to be on a starship, and this starship looks very old and may have been abandoned for a long time."

Lu Yue explained.

After listening to this, Liu Zhuangshi frowned even more tightly. He was obviously not satisfied with this answer. After a moment of silence, he asked again.

"Xiao Lu, with your eyesight, can you tell what kind of starship this is? You are a top student at the 47th Starship High School, and you even got first place in the exam with excellent grades. You should be able to figure out something."

Hearing Liu Zhuangshi's words, a hint of thought flashed in Lu Yue's eyes.

"I have already observed it carefully!"

Lu Yue showed a hint of confidence on his face and spoke.

"There are more than 200 types of starships with this kind of small storage compartment in the records of Venus! However, judging from the fact that we have not yet entered warp flight, this is definitely not a medium or large starship with ocean-going capabilities. In this way, we can directly rule out 172 of them!"

Lu Yue paused and continued.

"Then, among the remaining starships, apart from some extremely expensive starships sold specifically for personal use, there are only three possibilities! Either this is a Riverbird starship produced in China; or it is an Alpha starship produced in the United States; of course, the worst possibility is that this is actually an unknown starship that was privately modified by interstellar pirates!"

Hearing Lu Yue's analysis, Ye Ye's heart sank. A Chinese starship? This is obviously unlikely! After all, they are now far away from China. And the latter two possibilities, no matter which one, are probably not good news for them...

At this moment, there was a sudden shout: "What are you talking about? Be quiet!"

Just as the three of them were talking in low voices, the hatch suddenly slammed open without warning! Then, a figure flashed into the storage compartment like a ghost.

The man was wearing a black combat uniform that covered his entire body tightly. He also wore a black mask on his face, making it impossible to see his face clearly. Only his eyes and mouth were exposed. In his hand, he held a strangely shaped gun, with the black muzzle facing Ye Ye and the other two, giving off a chilling aura.

"Shut up, everyone!"

The man shouted angrily at Ye Ye and the other two. His voice was low and stern, as if it contained endless pressure.

It turned out that there were three monitors installed in this storage warehouse to monitor the situation here. Just now, the staff in the background saw through the monitor that Lu Yue, Ye Ye and Liu Zhuangshi had woken up one after another and were chatting enthusiastically, which made them very surprised and dissatisfied. So they immediately sent this person over to warn the three people.

Frightened by this sudden scene, Ye Ye and the other two instantly became quiet. Facing the black muzzle of the gun, they didn't even dare to breathe, let alone continue the conversation.

However, unexpectedly, the man in black didn't seem to care about their reaction. He just looked at the three people indifferently, then turned around and left the storage warehouse directly, as if the roar just now was just a routine warning, or a general warning to all those who woke up in the storage warehouse, or pretended not to wake up but actually woke up.

After the man in black left, the atmosphere in the room, which had been relatively quiet, suddenly became solemn. The three of them looked at each other, and each of them had a gloomy expression on their faces.

Their eyes met, and each of them revealed a trace of uneasiness that was difficult to conceal. Liu Zhuangshi's voice was low and hoarse, as if he was a little breathless under an invisible pressure.

"The situation seems to be more complicated than we thought..."

Ye Ye and Lu Yue nodded at the same time, indicating that they fully agreed with Liu Zhuangshi's opinion. Their silence made the atmosphere in the room more depressing, as if time had frozen at this moment.

The words that the man in black said just now kept circling in their minds. What shocked them the most was that the man in black actually spoke Chinese! And he spoke in a clear and fluent voice without any accent. He was definitely a real Chinese.

This discovery made them realize that things might be much more difficult than they had initially thought. If they were kidnapped by people from the United States or other countries, the Qixing Chinese government would definitely take a series of strong rescue measures. After all, the commotion they caused on Planet 47 was not small, and it was almost impossible to completely cover up their whereabouts.

However, the current situation is that the people who kidnapped them are likely to be people from within China. This means that the problem they are facing may not be as simple as being kidnapped, and there may be deeper reasons and forces hidden behind it.

Thinking of this, the three of them felt increasingly heavy-hearted. They began to re-examine the current situation and think about how to deal with this sudden change next.

The starship did not enter warp flight, and Lu Yue had been estimating their possible location based on the starship's travel time.

"If it doesn't work, we'll just fight them. The guy who just came in was only at the diamond level."

Suddenly, Liu Zhuangshi spoke in a low voice.

Hearing Liu Zhuangshi's words, Ye Ye looked at Liu Zhuangshi in surprise. The oppressive feeling Liu Zhuangshi gave to Ye Ye was far less strong than that of Lu Donglai, but Liu Zhuangshi's body cultivation level was definitely not low.

Sure enough, Lu Yue began to persuade.

"Don't act rashly. Uncle Liu, although you are a king, you are injured after all. And we don't know how many people there are on the starship, and what their strength is."

Hearing Lu Yue's words, Liu Zhuangshi drooped his head in dejection, but the next moment, Liu Zhuangshi looked up in surprise.

"Why is my blood energy dissipating?"

Hearing Liu Zhuangshi's words, Lu Yue was stunned and subconsciously practiced the body cultivation technique, but found that his blood energy, which was usually extremely obedient, was dead silent and did not listen to his orders at all.
