nebula story

When Chesu finally woke up leisurely, Nan Zhuo was no longer by his side.

Move your body, you are not tied up, and there are no traces of being abused or beaten.Looking around, he couldn't find that person at all as far as he could see.Sitting up propped up, he suddenly bumped into something by his hand.Looking suspiciously, he was surprised to find a boxy package of...organic food?

Although it is a bit different from the compressed biscuits carried by their imperial army, it can be judged at a glance that this should also be some kind of high-energy, small-volume field military food.

Sure enough, as soon as he opened the simple package, a faint smell of grain mixed protein food came, which instantly stimulated his hungry stomach.

There is no other possibility, it was left to him by the federal soldier.

After a little hesitation, he opened the transparent package with his hands. It was very similar to the imperial military food. The package was made of high-strength, high-temperature-resistant fiber material that could only be torn apart along a certain trajectory.Although he was very hungry, he controlled the desire to devour, but swallowed slowly and carefully, letting the tip of his tongue and between his lips and teeth savor the fragrance of the food.

I don't know how long I've been sleeping, but the light around me is much brighter than when I woke up last time. Looking up at the sky, I can see that the sky is so magnificent that it's almost weird that the clouds of different colors are mostly bright blue, sometimes mixed with bright blue.Because of this sky-like hue, it creates a feeling of being in the daytime.

Chesu discovered something.After waking up several times, he couldn't see any stars in the sky, and the thick and weird cloud trees covered the entire sky, making him feel that the sky was dark or bright, only the color gradient of those clouds.

Looking around, the mountains on both sides are continuous, with dark blue and dark black interspersed like layers of terraced fields, but there is no vegetation at all, which forms a sharp contrast with the moss-covered basin around it.

While observing the surroundings, Chesu chewed the sweet food in his mouth. As guessed, this kind of munitions food has the effect of bloating the stomach. The finer the chewing, the more full the feeling of fullness will be.After eating a small piece, the feeling of heartburn from hunger immediately eased a lot. After swallowing the last bite, Chesu reluctantly ate all the food residues in the packaging bag.

... There is absolutely no way that the federal man's mech contains much food.According to the routine, even if certain accidents are taken into account, food and clean water supply can be provided for at most one or two weeks, and there is a prerequisite for that, that is, all the food and clean water in his mecha are not damaged.

Often the strange clouds in the sky, Chesu finally smiled wryly, and a reality that he hadn't seriously faced until now vaguely appeared in his mind.

There is a great possibility that he and this federal man will be completely trapped to death on this strange planet with unknown location and unknown danger.There is no human habitation, the stars and the moon cannot be seen, and there is no food and non-toxic water source that can be eaten.

...Even if you can barely survive, you can only die here forever.

Sitting blankly on the green mossy ground, many people's faces appeared in his mind.

The doting but forceful father who resolutely stopped him from going to the battlefield, the gentle and kind His Royal Highness Lance, the emperor who only met once, the stern but impartial Colonel Vesta, the unruly and exaggerated Zion, long time no see Master Andy and Aunt Shanli, the little maid Aisha in the palace, and the chief guard of Wood.Also, Your Highness Fern.

Lord Fern who whipped him and put him in the grim royal prison.

His Royal Highness Fern, who is usually reticent, but struggled to explain to him late at night and asked for forgiveness...

Smiling and fighting side by side with him, His Highness Fern ordered him not to die with a painful and desperate voice...

Confused and chaotic thoughts filled his mind, he sat on the ground for a long time, finally jumped up quickly, and strode towards the mecha not far away!

Everything is still unknown, maybe this planet is very habitable, with enough food and water; maybe the mecha of the Federation can still fly, and has enough energy; A large expedition ship just passing by here?

Desperately encouraging himself with these almost completely impossible ideas, he suppressed his almost despairing state of mind.Yes, everything is still possible before the end of the mountain!

But... just getting up and taking a step, there was a pleasant sound of metal impact coming from under his feet, which was clearly audible in the empty and silent surroundings, and it was really pleasant to hear.

Looking down at the bunch of useless screws on his ankle in amazement, he couldn't help blushing: the simple bell tied to his foot to prevent him from moving, that hateful and vicious federal villain!After snatching the bottle of water, I fell into a sleepy sleep from exhaustion, how could I bother to untie it?

Crouching down, he tried hard to untie the metal coil, but found to his dismay that the guy had tied a dead knot, and there was no way to cut it without any tools!

Ignoring it resentfully, he continued to walk and ran to the wetland not far away.While running, he once again discovered that the underground gravitational force was too small, and his steps seemed much easier.

Stepping carefully in the mud, he jumped close to the two mechas that were very close to each other, calmed down, and began to carefully inspect the extremely damaged "Xingyun No. [-]".

The high temperature of the self-explosion had burned the entire lower half, and the storage box for storing food and spare water was completely out of shape.Many parts have been severely damaged or broken down. At a glance, physical damage caused by the impact abounds.

With all his strength, he picked a panel that could be disassembled by manpower, and finally managed to open the severely deformed cabin.Searching hard among a pile of components, his eyes suddenly lit up—maintenance box!A spare repair box with his right-hand man!The maintenance equipment used in combat was scattered when the plane crashed, but here is his spare box!

He dragged out the metal box that was squeezed and deformed, rubbed his hands together nervously, and then opened the box lid.Although it was a bit difficult due to the deformation, after several struggles, he finally opened the familiar box smoothly.

For a moment, he was almost so happy that his hands trembled slightly!Sure enough, the special tools that were tightly protected by the cushioning foam pads seemed to be safe and sound, lying there quietly, shining with silver and black light.

Spare sets of screws, self-powered screwdrivers, ion torches, and two full sets of small high-energy compression energy festivals!

Such a small energy saving is certainly not enough to keep the mech running, but it is enough to supply electric welding torches and powerful electric tools for a year or two.

Suppressing his excitement, he hugged the maintenance toolbox and excitedly began to assemble the tools in the stuffy broken mech. After a while, the whole set of tools was laid out in front of him. on stage.Looking around, he started to deal with the first most important thing!

The main control memory chip on the computer center console of "Xingyun No. [-]".It was an extremely tiny piece of stuff.Hidden deep in the middle of a large group of strong and tightly fitted high-strength circuit boards, even if it is subjected to a strong impact, that small chip with extremely high hardness and melting point may be safe.

Carefully peeling off the scorched outer layer with a small screwdriver and pliers, and separating the transmission line little by little, his dexterous and long fingers are proficient and quick, and the movements in his hands are as delicate as a weaver girl.Soon, after dismantling layers, the center console was disassembled, and under the protection circuit, the most important main control memory chip appeared in front of the eyes, faintly flashing translucent crystal luster.

Changing to the smallest needle-nose pliers, he held his breath and peeled off the data wires around the chip.Picking up the crystal-like iridescent main control memory chip, he let out a long sigh of relief—the interface is good, and there doesn't seem to be any physical damage.

But... the control circuit of the center console on "Xingyun No. No matter how much information there is, it is impossible to read it.

He buried himself in the "Xingyun-[-]" and checked it thoroughly, and finally came to a conclusion in frustration. It is absolutely impossible to read the important Information is up!

After thinking and thinking, Chesu carefully tore off a piece of shock-absorbing material from the toolbox, wrapped the translucent wafer inside and hid it on his body, and picked out a file, a pair of needle-nose pliers and a pair of pliers from the toolbox. From the word Zhi Ping, he turned over and got out of the scorched black "Xingyun No. [-]".

The dark red federal mecha was just a foot away, quietly half-slanted, staring at this federal one-man mecha that didn't seem to have much damage, he hesitated, and leaned over gently.

A little curious, a little apprehensive, unable to suppress the desire to take a peek at the enemy mecha, he reached out and touched the protective armor on the outer shell.The hardness is no less than their "Xingyun No. [-]", the dark red material should be iron in a stable state?Lifting the triangular file he brought out from the toolbox, he carefully filed off a little bit of metal dust on the outer layer, holding it in front of his eyes for a closer look.

Looking out from the inside of the mech quite interestingly, Nan Zhuo smiled lightly.

Thanks to the string of small screw bells, when the crisp sound came, he had already noticed Chesu's approach.From the one-way window, he could clearly see Chesu's every move, but Chesu couldn't find him for a while.

Being patient, he thought that Chesu would come to check on him soon, but he didn't expect him to stay there for an hour!

Suffocating him to death, I almost couldn't help jumping out to see what he was doing, it took a lot of stamina to hold back!Finally, when the little guy ran over, he could even clearly see every subtle expression on Chesu's face from a distance of only a few tens of centimeters.

Without the vigilance and hostility when facing him, the imperial youth's eyes were as pure as a child's, with such undisguised expressions of curiosity and inquiry, and gentle expressions on his pretty face.

Putting his face closer to the one-way window, Nan Zhuo looked at Chesu and just happened to stretch his face over, as if he wanted to look in, but was limited by the one-way visible material, Chesu studied it, and began to hold up the file to deal with it again. This strange material.

Looking at his serious face, Nan Zhuo almost laughed out loud.I want to cut a piece of any material I see and analyze it. I am really a metal anatomy fanatic!

Eh?The dissecting wasn't enough, he even put the bits of material that had been filed down into his mouth and bit it!He obviously left a bag of food for him, so he wouldn't be so hungry, right?

After a while, Chesu's head left the window, and turned to study his cabin door... He pulled it, but there was no response. Not only did he not give up, but he took out a handful of thin flat ones from his pocket, Carefully start prying on his hatch!

Damn, trying to screw up the hatch?Cursing secretly in his heart, Nan Zhuo put away his smile, dragged his limping feet, and was about to reach out to open the door, but he heard the regular sound of the dark spring turning at the crack of the door, and couldn't help being taken aback?Keenly discerning that the sound was not destructive, he resisted the urge to get up and open the door, but waited quietly.

Sure enough, within a minute or two, the hatch that he closed casually from the inside had "clicked" and bounced open!

Opening the cabin door happily, Chesu met a condescending face, half a smile, looking at him from the high cabin door, as if he had caught a thief who broke into the house.

"It's in broad daylight, tsk tsk." He looked at Chesu sarcastically, standing by the door with one foot, "If you want to come in, just knock on the door, why pick the lock?"

Suddenly caught by him, Chesu blushed in embarrassment before he even had time to put away the evidence in his hand.Just seeing no one around, there has been no movement at all for a long time, and I thought he ran somewhere to investigate the environment, why did he forget that his legs and feet are inconvenient, and ran here like a cat!

Carelessly looking at the screwdriver in his hand, Nan Zhuo sounded an alarm in his heart: just rely on such a flat thing to pry open the door of the ship, which is at least well-structured?The screwdriver is not weird, this little guy must be weird!

He bent down calmly, his broad shoulders were like a small mountain peak, putting great pressure on Chesu: "Give me the screwdriver."

Biting her lip, Chesu suddenly turned her head, trying to run backwards.

However, Nan Zhuo didn't give him this chance, he had expected that he would not give in easily, he swooped down from the half-height cabin like a big bird, extremely fast!

A black shadow fell from the sky, his injured foot didn't affect his nimble attack at all, and instantly crushed Chesu hard on the wet ground, stirring up a chaotic mud.The two of them were in a mess immediately. Chesu used all his strength to kick Nan Zhuo's injured foot. Nan Zhuo was pressing on him and couldn't dodge. He immediately grinned and gasped.

He punched Chesu heavily on the chin. Enduring the severe pain in his feet, he slammed Chesu's face into the algae in the wetland, causing him to cough.

He forcefully locked Chesu's wrist, and with a sneer, he forcibly searched out those small tools from the pocket of Chesu's control suit, then forcefully broke Chesu's fingers, and snatched the flat-blade screwdriver.

Struggling hard, Chesu was still no match for Nan Zhuo's skill after all, and was extremely unwilling to be confiscated with all his tools. He glared at Nan Zhuo hatefully. bad guy!

"What are you doing?" He clenched his fists angrily, but whenever possible, he wished to punch this hateful face in front of him!

"These things are real weapons." Nan Zhuo sneered.

Staring at his hands helplessly, Chesu felt extremely depressed: Damn you bastard of the Federation!That is the best small tool to use, why does he have to take it away?I can't beat him again and again, so there's no point fighting him desperately to protect a file!

Looking at Chesu's eyes full of reluctance, Nan Zhuoyue felt that his vigilance was right: he must not be fooled by his harmless face, there was still a wound on his head, and his feet were still on the ground. It was throbbing with burning pain, if he kept such dangerous objects close to him, he might stab him in the stomach when he turned around!

Letting go of Chesu, Nan Zhuo stood on one foot, jumped a few times and returned to his cabin.

"Why, do you want to come in and have a look?" He climbed up to the hatch of the mech with his arms, then turned around and made an inviting gesture.

Chesu glared at him angrily.

"The cabin is so small, I won't put away your murder weapon, if you give me a knife casually, I won't be able to defend against it?" Nan Zhuo smiled slightly, his amber eyes gleamed slyly. "It's fine if you don't come up. If you want to come up later, don't blame me for closing the door to thank guests."

There was a moment of silence, finally overwhelmed by curiosity, Chesu got up sullenly, and came to Nanzhuo's mech.The spiral ladder had been damaged and fell off. He was climbing along the side, and was about to jump with the last step, but a hand hung down in front of him, and it was firmly stretched out in front of him.

Raising his head in astonishment, Chesu suddenly froze there, and an extremely similar scene appeared in his mind.The same firm and broad palms also stood on the mecha and stretched out their hands lightly towards him, inviting him to take a tour of the plane for the last time.

The difference was that it was a gentle night.

What's even more different is that it's a different person and a different planet. ...The face of the Federation youth in front of him slightly overlapped with His Royal Highness Fern in his memory for an instant.

Feeling suddenly sore and sad in his heart, Chesu lowered his head and did not take that kind hand.Quietly stepping on a broken protrusion, he climbed up with his own arms.

Resentfully withdrew his hand, Nan Zhuo rolled his eyes.Sure enough, he is a stubborn guy who treats other people's kindness like a donkey's liver and lungs!

After getting into this strange mech, Chesu's eyes brightened obviously.Looking around curiously, he couldn't help looking around, his heart was itchy.It has similarities with the Imperial Army Mecha, but this is obviously the latest weapon of the Federal Army, and there are many novelties and design highlights that he has not seen before.

"Can I touch it?" He finally couldn't help asking in a low voice.

"It's okay to touch." Nan Zhuo raised his eyebrows slantingly, and smiled lazily, "Don't use your mouth to chew..."

Startled when he heard the words, Chesu noticed that looking from the inside of the mech, there was a one-way window opposite the console.It turned out that he was sitting in it, watching his every move like a monkey!

Thinking of his act of using his teeth to test the hardness of the material just now, a smear of red rose from the base of his ear and quietly stained his cheek.

With a blushing face, he turned his head quickly, and started beating and rubbing around the cabin.The few tools in his arms were confiscated by the villain, and his desire to disassemble a few places for a closer look could not be satisfied.

Looking at his serious expression silently, Nan Zhuo felt that he had vaguely guessed the mind of the young man from the empire.Although the exclusive mechanic of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Empire is young, his abilities should not be underestimated.It seemed that his familiarity with machinery was enough for him to see some of the secrets of this mecha.

"Want to spy on the design secrets of our federal mecha?" He suddenly said coldly.

Chesu replied stiffly: "Who cares?"

"Isn't it surprising that you take it so seriously?" Nan Zhuo shook his head tut-tut.

Glancing at him, Chesu's eyes showed disapproval: "It's just a single-person mecha. At most, the material and engine power have been improved, and the design concept has not been innovative. How can it be so rare?"

Nan Zhuo frowned slightly.

That's right, this generation of Federation's newest mecha doesn't have any breakthroughs in core design, the only changes are part of the alloy material and engine boost!As the best mecha pilot in the Federation, no one knows the favorite machine he is driving better than him.

"Your empire's intelligence and espionage work is excellent." He said calmly, with a calm face, "Can all these be collected?"

Looking at him suspiciously, Chesu frowned: "What intelligence collection?"

"Isn't it provided by your military's intelligence? It's about the improvement of our Federation's latest mecha." Nan Zhuo smiled slightly.

Chesu shook his head, with a hint of arrogance floating in his eyes: "No. I just saw the design drawings of your federation's old-fashioned mechs, and they are all outdated information, right? Don't you see it after comparing them?"

Nan Zhuo stared straight at him, feeling an unspeakable shock in his heart.Is this true, or is he trying to hide something so he's bragging?Could this young mechanic from the empire draw those conclusions just by watching with his eyes and touching with his fingers for a few minutes?

Although he didn't want to believe it anymore, somehow, Nan Zhuo just felt that what this young man said seemed to be true.

Holding the thin translucent wafer with his fingers, Chesu stared at the center console of the mecha for a long time without moving.He remembered...the level of technology between the Federation and the Empire is not much different, and the computer data interface is even common in some places!

How damaged is the Federation mecha in front of me?Is there a slight possibility that we can find a way to transplant the main control memory chip of "Xingyun No. [-]" into it and read it out? ... For a moment, his heart was pounding.

Looking at his weird expression, Nan Zhuo finally couldn't help it: "Hey, what kind of expression is that on your face?!"

Looking back at him, Chesu didn't answer—this person would never agree to dismantle his mecha, and could only wait for the opportunity to sneak in again with other tools.

With burning eyes, the young soldier on the opposite side suddenly smiled slyly and approached him: "I said, let's make a three-chapter agreement, how about it?"

"What?" Chesu was taken aback.

"Although I don't know what your plan is, I can guess it with my toes. Are you thinking about how to deal with me?" Nan Zhuo's eyes were sharp. How about a rule?"

Tilting his head, Chesu said, "Can I disagree?"

"I can't." Nan Zhuo said with a straight face, "You can't beat me—although you sprained one of my feet, but in a real face-to-face fight, I can still knock you down and tie you up, and then break your limbs."

His face was flushed, and Chesu stared at him silently.

Seeing him dare not speak out, Nan Zhuo was in a good mood.

Leaning back, he crossed his swollen foot, and sat carelessly on the electric element induction chair tilted to the side, with a satisfied face: "You saw it too, maybe this ghost place where birds don't shit No one has passed by in a lifetime, maybe we will spend decades together, right?"

Chesu hummed softly, his eyes brightened: "We will go back."

Shrugging his shoulders disapprovingly, Nan Zhuo sighed: It really is a naive child who has such unrealistic fantasies in his heart.Without arguing with him, he continued: "Okay, even if I can go back one day, the current plan is to live well. Then, it is very important to support and help each other instead of always thinking about stabbing and beating each other secretly." Necessary, right?"

Chesu glanced at him lightly: "Support and help each other? Are you sure it's not the relationship between the captive and the victor?"

Touching his nose in embarrassment, Nan Zhuo pretended to be confused: "Of course, from now on, we are allies..."
