Chapter 2068 Cryptomeria
The surroundings were quiet, so quiet that it made people feel a little creepy, as if time had frozen at this moment. The sudden change made everyone present dumbfounded and stunned.
Breaking the arm of a Platinum-level cultivator with a single slap was no easy feat for anyone present. However, among the ten people who were awake at the moment, more than half of them could do it easily. For example, Liu Zhuangshi, in his prime, such a thing was a piece of cake and not a difficult task at all.
But the problem is that their blood energy is now completely suppressed, and their strength is completely wasted. Unable to use their blood energy, they are at best only slightly stronger than ordinary people. So, how did Ye Ye do it?
You know, Ye Ye's strength is only at the gold level. No matter how powerful he is, it is absolutely impossible for him to break the arm of a platinum-level cultivator so easily when his blood and energy are suppressed! This is really unbelievable, and people can't figure out the reason at all.
"Ah!!! Ugh???"
With a shrill scream, the soldier's arm was broken, blood splattered everywhere. His face showed an extremely painful expression, cold sweat flowed like a fountain, and his body trembled due to the severe pain.
However, the scream only lasted for a moment before it was suddenly cut off. A jellyfish emitting blue fluorescence appeared in front of the soldier like a ghost and blocked his mouth in a flash. The jellyfish's tentacles tightly wrapped around the soldier's mouth and nose, making him feel suffocated and unable to make any sound.
"Stop shouting, it's making too much noise."
Ye Ye looked at the scene in front of him with an impatient look on his face, as if it had nothing to do with him. His voice was a little cold, and he showed no sympathy for the suffering of the soldiers.
At the same time, the space crack behind Ye Ye, which was only about 30 centimeters long, was slowly closing. Obviously, he had activated the Half-Phase Summoning without hesitation, allowing the Heart Sea to summon the jellyfish to seal the soldier's mouth.
Lu Yue stood aside, watching the scene in amazement. His lips moved slightly twice, as if he wanted to say something, but he swallowed it back in the end.
Liu Zhuangshi had never expected Ye Ye to suddenly attack, which made him stunned and completely at a loss. However, after his brief shock, his face suddenly became extremely ugly, because he saw that after Ye Ye took action, the other three soldiers raised their guns without hesitation and quickly aimed at Ye Ye.
These soldiers moved very quickly. Although they did not expect Ye Ye's sudden explosion, they reacted very quickly after years of training. They pointed their guns at Ye Ye tightly and pulled the trigger without hesitation.
However, since Ye Ye had decided to take action, he would not be defenseless against the other three. At the moment when the three soldiers raised their guns, a layer of jade shield emitting gilded color appeared around Ye Ye like magic. This layer of shield emitted a faint light, as if it was driven by some mysterious power.
The guns in the soldiers' hands were obviously not the traditional hot weapons that Ye Ye was familiar with, but a more advanced and more powerful super weapon. This weapon could emit extremely destructive energy rays, and its power far exceeded that of ordinary guns.
The red energy ray rushed out like lightning, with almost no ballistic delay, and hit Ye Ye instantly. However, to everyone's surprise, when the ray hit the jade shield around Ye Ye, the shield instantly lit up with a dazzling light, completely blocking the ray.
Although the three soldiers kept pulling the triggers, and the red energy rays kept shooting at Ye Ye like raindrops, no matter how they shot, they could not penetrate the solid jade shield. The shield seemed to have infinite energy, firmly blocking all attacks outside.
At this time, Ye Ye had already made a rough judgment in his mind. The energy ray emitted by this weapon was only about the energy of the regular diamond level. It was simply a foolish dream to want to break his jade shield! However, Ye Ye was not the kind of good guy who allowed others to bully him. Standing here and passively taking a beating was not his style.
At the moment when Ye Ye was hit by the energy ray, Lu Yue on the side was extremely anxious. He watched Ye Ye being attacked, but was unable to do anything because his own blood and energy were sealed. The anxiety and anger in his heart almost made him crazy.
However, Lu Yue was a man of blood after all. Seeing Ye Ye in danger, he gritted his teeth and stamped his feet without hesitation, determined to help Ye Ye out of the predicament no matter what. So, he pounced on one of the soldiers like a tiger!
Lu Yue's action was completely unexpected by the soldier. The soldier was stunned at first, and then he showed a ferocious smile. He obviously did not take Lu Yue, a seemingly reckless boy, seriously. He quickly raised the energy gun in his hand and aimed at Lu Yue, ready to teach this ignorant guy a hard lesson and let him know what it means to overestimate one's own abilities.
However, just as the soldier was about to pull the trigger, a cold light flashed by like lightning! This light was so fast that people had no time to react. In an instant, a jaw-dropping scene occurred - the three soldiers, along with the energy guns in their hands, and even the energy rays emitted by the energy guns, were instantly frozen!
Suddenly, the temperature in the storage warehouse dropped rapidly like riding a roller coaster, as if they had instantly entered the cold winter. People couldn't help but shudder, shrinking their necks, looking shocked, staring at the scene in front of them with wide eyes, completely unaware of what was happening.
The thick ice crystals were like a surging cold current, freezing the four soldiers into four ice sculptures in a lightning speed. The ice sculptures were crystal clear and lifelike, as if time had frozen at this moment. The white mist, like a ghost, exuded a biting cold air, sweeping around like a whirlwind.
"If I hadn't reacted quickly, you would have been seriously injured if not dead!"
Lu Yue looked at the scene in front of him with lingering fear, while Ye Ye looked at Lu Yue. Now Lu Yue was still a little frightened.
Ye Ye looked at Lu Yue who suddenly stopped in the middle of the action, shook his head helplessly and said.
"You are a bit reckless."
However, when Lu Yue witnessed with his own eyes how Ye Ye dealt with the four soldiers so easily and even displayed a series of abilities that he could not understand at all, he was completely stunned. Like a sculpture, he stared at Ye Ye stupidly with his mouth wide open, but could not utter a word.
"you……"
Lu Yue finally came to his senses and was about to say something.
"What are you talking about? Stop dawdling and get going!"
Ye Ye couldn't help laughing when he saw Lu Yue's silly and cute look. Then he waved his hand, signaling Lu Yue, Liu Zhuangshi and the remaining seven people to follow him and leave this strange place together.
However, what Ye Ye did not expect was that, except for Lu Yue and Liu Zhuangshi, the other seven people seemed to be under a spell and showed no signs of moving at all. Seeing this, Ye Ye could not help but frown and was secretly surprised.
He hesitated for a moment, and finally asked.
"You guys...what's going on?"
There was a hint of confusion and bewilderment in his voice.
However, before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by one of them.
"Leave? Where can we go? This is the territory of the United States. If we resist, we will definitely die!"
Another person echoed.
"Yeah, we might as well just wait here. Maybe we can survive this experiment and give ourselves a chance to survive. If we go with you, we'll really be dead!"
Then another person started shouting.
"Why didn't you think about us before you started? Now, if the doctor gets angry because of you, I'm afraid we won't even have the chance to participate in the experiment!"
In an instant, the originally quiet scene became somewhat chaotic. The remaining seven people not only did not express gratitude to Ye Ye for his rescue, but instead began to blame him.
Ye Ye was speechless and amused when listening to these people's words. He really couldn't figure it out. Are these people brains broken?
And Ye Ye felt that he could not be trapped here! Although the system was currently barely powered on and it was impossible to create a black hole like before to directly destroy this place or even the planet, it did not mean that they had no chance of escaping.
Taking advantage of the doctor's absence, they can give it a try, snatch the starship, and then escape from this hellhole! After all, Lu Yue is a top student at Starship High School, and he should be able to handle things like driving a starship.
But Ye Ye overlooked one thing, which was the doctor's bad reputation in the Hope Galaxy.
"Please believe me, I am saving you."
Ye Ye took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and spoke.
"Humph, save us? Ignorance! Do you know who Liu Shan is? He is a devil! Since we are all Chinese, you should leave here immediately. We have nothing to do with each other!"
"You're right!"
"you!"
Lu Yue was also a little angry at the attitude of these seven people, but he had just said two words when he was pulled back by Liu Zhuangshi.
"let's go."
Liu Zhuangshi looked at Ye Ye and said in a deep voice.
Ye Ye also knew that now was not the time to waste, so the four soldiers were ordered to take them away. However, if there was no movement for too long, it would attract attention.
With no other choice, Ye Ye had to follow Liu Zhuangshi and leave the storage warehouse with Lu Yue.
"You really don't understand the tremendous destructive power of the word "Cypress"! Lu Yue has been in school all his life and knows very little about the outside world. And Ye Ye, it seems that your understanding of Cypress is also quite limited."
"You know, in the past few years, Liushan has not only maintained a close cooperative relationship with the United States. In fact, the transactions between him and the interstellar pirates are the dirtiest and most terrible. Those starships that shuttle between the various stars, especially those tourist starships, are often attacked by Liushan."
"His target is very clear, that is, the people on the starship, to use them as experimental subjects. Liu Shan will use any means to obtain these experimental subjects to meet his ulterior needs."
"Not only that, Liu Shan would occasionally record some extremely cruel scenes in the laboratory, make them into videos, and then publicly release them to intimidate the people of various planets. In his eyes, once someone unfortunately falls into his hands, it is basically equivalent to losing their freedom. Even survival becomes a luxury, not to mention being able to escape his clutches."
"So far, no one has been able to escape after being caught by Liu Shan, which is enough to prove how cruel and cunning his methods are."
Liu Zhuangshi explained as he walked, saying that this was why the seven people had no desire to escape, and even blamed Ye Ye's sudden action which might implicate them.
Ye Ye's heart skipped a beat when he heard this.
Isn’t this the Southeast Asian cyber fraud park on Earth in the previous life?
"Don't say too much, Lu Yue, you are familiar with starships, how should we leave?"
"I can't leave..."
Hearing Ye Ye's question, Lu Yue showed a bitter smile on his face.
"This starship doesn't have the ability to jump through space. Even if we seize it, we will be caught up. I suggest that instead of being surrounded by starships, we should leave this starship first."
Lu Yue was not a fool, so he naturally knew what Ye Ye meant. It was nothing more than seizing the ship and running away, but it was not that simple.
Even if they succeed in capturing this starship, they will be caught up because this starship runs too slowly.
Upon hearing this, Ye Ye frowned and didn't know what to do. However, there are always more solutions than problems. The system once again sent down divine soldiers and gave Ye Ye guidance.
"Ding! Multiple choice questions released!"
"[Option 1]: Take the starship under your feet and run away, and successfully return to Planet 47. Reward: A huge amount of beast power."
"[Option 1]: Leave the starship, take it slow, and make a deep impression on Dr. Liu Shan. Reward: + star rating for all contracted spirits!"
"[Option 1]: Go to war with the doctor directly! I will avoid his attack? My sword is not bad at all! Reward: Royal Helicopter Card!"
Seeing the three options, Ye Ye couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
It's already this time, and the system is still in the mood to play jokes on itself?
Go to war with the Doctor?
To put it bluntly, there is obviously the shadow of the United States official behind this doctor, and he is definitely surrounded by many bodyguards. Ye Ye is not surprised to see a planetary-level boss, and even a stellar-level one is not impossible.
Option three is simply seeking death!
As for option one, Ye Ye directly rejected it. After all, Lu Yue had already said that stealing the starship was not feasible.
The only thing left is option two.
