Chapter 265: Deep in the Stars 17

【Deep Starry Sky-17】

Ke Shaobin stared nervously at the fast-moving light spot on the laptop screen, and said, "Maybe it's a flying monster? Everyone, be careful!"

As the light spot gets closer, the detection of the small image becomes more accurate. Ke Shaobin was surprised to find that there were actually three red light spots on the screen, and there were red and green images that clearly represented heat.

Yue Xingwen frowned and looked up at the sky, and saw a clear beam of light. He was stunned for a moment, and immediately said, "Not quite right. Xiao Nian, put away the base first!"

Zhang Xiaonian immediately followed suit and put away all the walls.

Jiang Pingce looked at the gradually clearer image on the laptop screen and said, "Like a human being."

The thumbnail can detect the location of the target and draw the shape of the opponent.

At this time, the target image on the screen really has a head and limbs, much like a human being. Ke Shaobin originally thought it was the air monsters that launched the raid, but also thought that they could eat meat after hunting them, but it turned out that there were three people? !

This conclusion surprised everyone. Yue Xingwen guessed: "Maybe it is the rescue team? Knowing that our Thorns spacecraft was killed, so he came to find us on a nearby planet. Otherwise, this planet is not suitable for human survival at all, why? Will three humans land suddenly?"

Jiang Pingce nodded and said, "It's possible. After all, the task assigned to us by Major General Karen has not been completed."

Yue Xingwen's eyes swept around quickly. These days, everyone only relies on oranges, leaves and amino acids made by Xinyan to maintain the body's consumption. At the moment, everyone is hungry. However, since they are not short of water at all, they still wash as usual every day, so the surfaces look clean and tidy.

Not at all like a team that lost contact for nearly a week.

Yue Xingwen immediately said, "Put some dust on your body, and don't let people know about our abilities."

The classmates began to dress up in dresses one after another. Ke Shaobin simply smeared ashes on his face. Jiang Pingce, who has always been obsessed with cleanliness, also rubbed his clothes on the ground a few times, pretending to be suffering.

Yue Xingwen looked at Zhuo Feng: "Turn off the lights."

Zhuo Feng immediately put away the ball of light, and the surroundings fell into darkness.

After about 3 minutes, a huge aircraft landed nearby, kicking up the dust.

Three heavily armed soldiers disembarked from the aircraft, guns on their backs and searchlights in their hats. As the three searched forward, they talked in a low voice: "The wreckage of the Thorns spacecraft was found in the no-man's land, and all the escape pods were ejected. This is the planet closest to the accident site, and they probably landed here."

"However, the environment of this planet is not suitable for human survival at all, and the oxygen content is extremely low. If they were really on this planet, they might have sacrificed a long time ago."

"Major General Karen said that even if they can't be rescued in time, their bones will be brought back for burial."

Yue Xingwen: "..."

It seems that these three were sent by their superiors to collect their bodies, and they certainly did not expect them to be alive.

The next moment, a beam of strong light suddenly shone on, and Yue Xingwen subconsciously covered his eyes with his hands. Following that, everyone heard a young man's shocked voice: "God, they are still alive!"

Under the illumination of the light, 12 people are gathering together, all of them are disheartened and ragged, and it looks like they have suffered a lot. Especially the one who wears glasses, whose face is covered with dust and can't even see his face clearly.

The three immediately stepped forward and saluted Yue Xingwen: "Captain Yue, I'm sorry, our rescue team is late! Are you all alright?"

Yue Xingwen coughed and said, "I'm still alive."

The three were puzzled. How did the 183 Action Group survive in such an environment? It has been a week since the accident of the Thorns spacecraft. Did they rely on the oxygen cylinder and the water in the escape pod to survive until now?

The three of them were in awe of Yue Xingwen, and hurriedly said: "Please follow us to the rescue ship, Major General Karen is waiting for you in the nearby star field."

The camouflage uniforms on these three people are the same as their clothes, and they should be comrades in the same chapter. Since Major General Karen who issued the mission came over in person, it meant that their mission had to continue to be completed.

Yue Xingwen had no choice but to nod to the three of them, signaling everyone to follow.

Ke Shaobin dawdled at the end and whispered to Xin Yan: "The NPC is here again, so I knew that if we couldn't complete the task he gave, it would definitely not be so easy to pass the test."

Xin Yan said lightly, "The NPC was afraid that you would starve to death, so they brought you takeaways all the way."

Ke Shaobin didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Let's first land on this planet where birds don't shit, starve us for a week, and now send someone to rescue? Is this a slap, a sweet date, and then a harder slap? ?"

Xin Yan: "..."

Ke Shaobin's description is indeed quite appropriate. They starve them for a week, and send a rescue team to find them. Although the food problem will be solved, there will definitely be more difficult tasks waiting for them. Isn't this just a slap in the face, a sweet date, and then hit harder?

Unfortunately, they can only accept arrangements.

12 people lined up and boarded the aircraft of the rescue team in an orderly manner.

The nimble aircraft took off quickly, burst out of the clouds at lightning speed, into space, and landed on the tarmac of a huge aircraft carrier in a blink of an eye.

Major General Karen greeted him excitedly: "Great, you guys are still alive!"

Yue Xingwen's right hand was hanging on his chest, so he couldn't salute, so he nodded at the other party and said, "Major General, I'm sorry, we encountered a sandstorm on the way to sail and we didn't arrive at the mission location on time."

Major General Karen patted Yue Xingwen's shoulder lightly, and said, "Such a strong sandstorm is rare to see in a hundred years. It's just an accident. It's just bad luck, so I can't blame you... It's good to survive."

He glanced at the disgraced 12 people, and hurriedly said: "Call the team doctor to come over and help everyone check the injuries. In addition, he ordered the kitchen to make a table of dinner for the people of the 183 Action Team."

The adjutant next to him made arrangements immediately.

After a while, a young male doctor in a white coat and holding a medicine box came over and did some routine examinations for everyone. Except for Yue Xingwen's comminuted fracture, no one was injured. degree of malnutrition. The doctor removed the wooden board fixed on Yue Xingwen's arm and fixed it with plaster and bandage again.

The sumptuous dinner prepared by the back chef was also set on the table, and everyone who had been hungry for a week was brought to the restaurant to eat. Although the food here is extraordinarily rudimentary compared to the delicacies on earth, the dishes made from these cans of meat are much better than the shock of leaves this week!

Everyone unceremoniously feasted, and the tongue finally found a normal sense of taste.

After the meal, Major General Karen asked everyone to wash up and gave them a new set of clothes. Then, he asked with concern: "As far as I know, the planet you landed on is not suitable for human survival at all. How did you survive these seven days?"

Yue Xingwen made up the story calmly: "We landed in an underground cave, and a monster hidden in the abyss was awakened and chased us frantically. The monster was extremely large and rampaged in the cave, causing the cave Collapse." He paused, then followed: "We escaped without a hitch, using the gravel falling from the air to smash the monster to death, these days, we have survived by eating the monster's flesh. ." He also pointedly pointed to his arm: "My wrist was also injured while escaping."

What he said was half true and half false, unless Karen sent someone to the planet again to personally verify whether the monster was killed by smashing, otherwise, it would be impossible to hear that Yuexingwen was lying.

The other students also cooperated with Yue Xingwen, showing an expression of "the captain is right".

Karen patted Yue Xingwen on the shoulder and said earnestly: "Good job! To survive in such a harsh environment, the strength of your Action Team 183 is admirable, I really did not see you wrong!"

Immediately after, he said: "The detection mission of the β-71 nebula is still done by you. I will send someone to take you to the end."

Everyone: "..."

It has long been known that this NPC is not a kind takeaway brother who travels thousands of miles to give them food, but continues to issue difficult tasks and send them to the execution ground!

Seeing Yue Xingwen's serious expression, he seemed reluctant. Major General Karen added: "Since your right hand is injured, you can rest for this mission and let Jiang Pingce lead the team to investigate."

Yue Xingwen said hurriedly: "No need to rest, my injury is not serious, I will go with them."

Karen smiled and said, "Very good! You guys go back to rest and leave tomorrow morning."

Everyone was taken to the rest area of ​​the mothership, and when no one was around, Ke Shaobin sighed lightly and said, "It's better to stay on that planet and eat leaves for 20 days, I always feel that the next mission will be more terrifying. "

Liu Zhaoqing complained: "How can a 7-credit course let you eat leaves for 20 days and pass the test easily?"

Jiang Pingce said calmly: "What should come will always come. Since this detection mission is the target of the exam, we can't skip it. Everyone should recharge and prepare for the next challenge."

Ke Shaobin actively sought out information about the mission's destination and said, "There are a lot of precious ores in the place we are going to. The drone did not detect the existence of alien creatures on the planet, but the results of the drone's report may not be accurate. After all, many animals can hide underground, we still have to be careful."

Ke Shaobin paused, then looked at Yue Xingwen and said, "This time, let's bring more food and fill up our backpacks. Don't be so hungry that you will not be able to fight when you are in danger!"

Yue Xingwen nodded in agreement: "Well, bring some more supplies and hide them in the base built by Xiaonian."

As soon as the voice fell, a prompt message popped up in everyone's floating box at the same time——

【The mission has been updated】

[Goal: Collect 100 ore resources and bring them back to the human base for research]

[Reward: Final assessment score +30]

Collect 100 ore resources? This is the same as the collection task in the game.

The library will definitely not put the stones there and let them get them for nothing. Maybe they need to go over the mountains to find them, or they have to kill the monsters guarding the stones before they can pick up the ore.

100 is not a small number.

Yue Xingwen took a deep breath and said, "What I did in the past ten days was to choose and fill in the blanks. The question and answer question with the highest score in this exam is really starting now."
