Chapter 4, Thank you, Hanton

35%

The first mate Yang Ming was pushed against the bulkhead, and he let out a heavy cold snort, seemingly warning Yang Ming

Yang Ming's pace gradually quickened

The collar around the Valkyrie's neck slowly opened, and the two women beside her had already collapsed to the ground

When Yang Ming got up, he could only lean against the wall to make his way, but after taking more than ten steps, his body had already returned to normal

The Valkyrie has escaped

He has no intention of stopping at all

The tinnitus has persisted for quite a while

In front of Gig Grove, there is a single-sided screen wall that projects an unobstructed view of the chaotic scene in the lower cabin

It is quite impressive

Upon entering, it is necessary to identify biometric information. He placed his palm on the control panel on the left side, and the two large doors slowly opened to the left and right.

The feeling of dizziness has become increasingly severe, making it almost impossible to stand.

"Captain, what are you still doing standing here!"

It was as if the noise of a dozen coins swirling in a metal bowl continuously surrounded Yang Meng's ears

Giggrove still refuses to destroy the Valkyrie

Yang Ming rushed directly towards the nearest fire emergency exit, not forgetting to slap the alarm bell on the wall, causing the piercing alarm sound to echo throughout the entire research vessel

saw the Valkyrie swiftly twist and break the neck of a commando soldier

Yang Ming experienced a continuous ringing in his ears, accompanied by a sensation of dizziness and a strong urge to vomit

The lower cabin is in a standoff, having just experienced intense combat.

They are responsible for controlling the navigation of the spacecraft and for the real-time monitoring of the overall condition of the spacecraft

A soft sound echoed from the screen.

Certainly, the best outcome is to persuade Kegrov to abandon the Valkyrie and quickly eject the lower deck laboratory, with the worst-case scenario being to board the lifeboat.

Yang Ming was on the verge of grinding his molars to pieces

Several modified individuals lay near the nutrient chamber, their bodies covered in blood, with penetrating wounds left by high-energy radiation.

The first mate was somewhat taken aback, but aboard this ship, Kegrov was the pinnacle of power

The captain said to the button: "Assault team ... ... "

He shouted at the top of his lungs

Three horizontal safety gates are closing rapidly, cutting off the spiral staircase that ascends. The safety gate at the top is just beneath Yang Meng's feet

Yang Meng was standing relatively far back, and at this moment, he could not clearly see the expression of Gig Grove, but Yang Meng heard the ramblings of that bastard professor.

At the moment the red light circle erupted, Yang Meng was already running for his life, yet he still could not escape the influence of that red glow

Yang Ming recalled something, took out the small pocket, poured out the capsules given by Dr. Lina, crushed two of them, and swallowed them down with his head tilted back

Yang Ming's breathing gradually became steady, the bulging veins on his forehead slowly receded, and his entire body was drenched in sweat

"Let him go," said Giggrove with a frown

Yang Ming ignored the insignificant first mate and calmly began to ramble: "There are many rumors on the ship... Professor, you are the creator of the Valkyrie, and you know how powerful the genes she has integrated are. Now everyone on the ship is under her threat"

He barely discerned the exit of the nearby passage

In front is a series of connected arched windows, offering the best view of the starry sky on the entire ship, while on the left and right are the control panels that evoke a sense of claustrophobia, with rows of buttons that make one's scalp tingle

The first mate, who had been driving Yang Ming away, immediately shouted at the top of his lungs: "How much longer are you going to cause trouble here!"

A pale red gas mixed with markers appeared throughout the lower cabin, and the silhouettes of people standing in various places quickly became unsteady.

Professor, I aspire to become a powerful transformer! In pursuit of this goal, I have diligently engaged in physical training for several years! Everything is for the glory of the Empire! Even if it means sacrificing myself, I am willing to try!

In the screen, the Valkyrie slowly lies down

Hanton

A little further away lay more than ten imperial soldiers, their deaths even more tragic, most of them having their necks twisted and broken.

What on earth is this

The intense action of climbing the stairs may have triggered an old injury, as Yang Meng's eyes gradually became bloodshot during the frantic run, his ears filled with a buzzing sound, and a strong sense of dizziness surged over him like waves.

This old fellow's vigilance is quite impressive

At the entrance of the Valkyrie's cabin, two rows of men and women dressed in white lab coats raised their hands high, awkwardly forming a human wall, while being held captive by several menacing-looking modified individuals

Yang Ming immediately lowered his head and fell silent, cursing inwardly.

The lines spoken by the hidden BOSS, Brother Ge, during the beatings

But when Yang Meng noticed the safety gate slowly descending not far ahead, he took a quick leap forward, his body diving ahead, barely rolling into the inner side of the gate

Can this alloy gate, which can withstand high-energy laser beams, block the Valkyrie

He has already seen it

Yang Ming was captivated by the surveillance footage displayed on the screen

The lifeboat does not possess jump capabilities, and this is also a boundary location of the Empire's territory, where there exists the danger of being trapped and dying in the starry sky

Your ability to remain rational in the face of a crisis is a rare and commendable talent

Giggrove's palm, gripping the end of the cane, tightened around the round ball.

Yang Ming suddenly spoke up, disregarding the confusion and impatience in the eyes of the several senior military officers, and said earnestly

Kigrov turned his head and looked over, staring at Yang Meng, and asked with a frown: "How do you know these things?"

I saw the Valkyrie rise amidst the hypnotic gas

Giggrove said in a deep voice

If the engine room where the warp drive is located is the heart of the spaceship, then the bridge is the brain of the spaceship

Ding, ding ding

The first officer scolded, "Lieutenant! This is not a place where you can speak freely!"

Where is the Valkyrie

Yang Ming sensed the hostility of the first officer, yet did not spare a glance at the other party, instead fixating on the Valkyrie who was dozing on the screen

When he found the situation of his last conversation with Giggrove, his facial expression almost broke down

Two women, controlled by the Valkyrie, were busy nearby, holding two transparent control panels, attempting to unlock the silver collar around the Valkyrie's neck

Child, do not be nervous, I will not harm you

Giggrove's face was ashen, his hands resting on a cane, the mechanical eye flickering with a red light, and his sparse hair was somewhat disheveled

A dozen or so men and women dressed in Imperial uniforms sat upright at their posts, calmly and succinctly relaying information, receiving orders, and pressing buttons

Background introduction of the copy of "The Lost Voice"

According to the subsequent conversation between Hanton and Kegrove, Yang learned that the failure rate of the genetic modification exploration experiments on this research vessel is 92%, and the mortality rate is ... ...

This strong and robust physique played a crucial role, as Yang Ming rushed directly to the top level of the safety passage in one breath

Giggrove harbors special feelings for the Valkyrie

The Valkyrie looked up towards the corner where the hidden surveillance was located, and that face, seemingly innocent and untouched by the world like that of a young girl, appeared right in the center of the projection screen

The first officer busily stated: "Everything is ready and can be used at any time; the task force is also in position"

What requirements did Hanton propose to Kegrove?

The burly first mate rushed over in two strides and grabbed Yang Meng by the collar: "You have no say here! Do you want to be put in solitary confinement? Hmm?"

At this moment, Yang Ming feels completely insecure

"Understood, Professor," the captain of the ship pressed the button on his collar and ordered in a deep voice, "Execute the professor's request immediately."

Is there a hormone mixed in this medicine? The effect is quite strong

After walking along the silver-gray corridor for a long time, two doors emblazoned with the imperial emblem came into Yang Ming's view

Professor Giggrove, I may be exaggerating a bit by saying this, but I overheard researchers mention that the most terrifying aspect of the Valkyrie is her infinite potential for evolution. This is the boundary of the Empire, and she may harbor a deep-seated hatred for the Empire

Professor," Yang Ming spoke directly, "Aren't we going to do something?

Soon, the hull began to tremble slightly, and the battle in the lower hold reached a fever pitch

Hanton

The walls conveyed the calm voice of the announcer, reading out the evacuation instructions, urging all departments to prepare for evacuation, and indicating the location of the lifeboats

Escape

Giggrov Road: "Captain, release double the standard concentration... No, triple the concentration."

Indeed, what Giggrove cares about the most, aside from the Valkyries, is this powerful Sherman Empire

She seemed to be quietly observing Gig Grove

Professor, Captain, in order to ensure absolute certainty, could we use high-energy laser beams to penetrate the Valkyrie's limbs? This would not cause her any substantial harm, but it would incapacitate her due to the self-healing of her injuries. What do you think, Professor?

Yang Meng felt a bit confused and quickly consulted Hanton's memories

Yang Ming suddenly spoke, his voice remaining calm throughout

I witnessed this spaceship entering the purgatory of the starry sky in despair

The Valkyrie has long been secretly controlling the experimental personnel who are in closest contact with her

This

The young third mate earnestly requested to be assigned the task

Yang Ming looked towards the location of the escape passage and began to search through his memories of the "Lifeboat Operation Guidelines" in Hanton

He raised his hand to cover his forehead, the feeling of dizziness had faded away like flowing water, the tightness in his chest was gone, and his mind became exceptionally active.

Giggrove said again: "First officer, you few, go to the lower hold to supervise the battle now, leave Hanton behind."

He then lay on the floor, closing his eyes and breathing heavily

Behind these operators is a closed and transparent fire control cabin; inside, several middle-aged officers are seated, controlling various enemy-targeting weapons on the spacecraft

Among the three lifeboats, one is placed in the external compartment near the bridge and can accommodate one hundred people

The personnel on the bridge, including the guards, usually number only around forty to fifty, making the probability of successfully boarding the lifeboats from here the highest

I can now agree to the request you mentioned earlier

Yang Ming furrowed his brow tightly

Yang Ming's thoughts were rapidly turning

Above the fire control cabin is the main control station, where Yang Meng is currently standing, searching for his target—Kigrov, as well as the captain, first officer, and several other senior crew members.

These old sixes are truly old sixes, isn't it a one-shot solution to detonate the bomb on the Valkyrie's neck now

Three officers arrived at the bridge

Yang Ming looked up and discovered the surveillance footage inside the Valkyrie cabin

The walls continuously emitted disaster warning sounds, and the embedded display screens everywhere displayed prominent red text

Several senior military officers turned their heads to look over

Three senior military officers swung their left hands behind them and their right hands in front, performing an imperial military salute, before bowing their heads and hastily departing

Thank you, Hanton

Climbing rapidly up the spiral staircase, having ascended over a hundred steps in one breath, Yang Ming finally heard the screams coming from below the passage.

More than ten nutrition warehouses have been opened

Yang Ming visibly let out a sigh of relief

The captain glanced at Yang Meng, and a slight smile appeared on his meticulously composed face as he immediately said: "Professor, rest assured, I will personally handle it."

The nutrient chamber has been breached, and the Valkyrie stands before it with outstretched arms, resembling a saint who has just bathed before a prayer ceremony

Giggrove gazed at Yang Meng a few times, and Yang Meng calmly met his gaze.

Does this count as a change in history

Many men and women nearby began to bend down and vomit, while some precision instruments emitted faint arcs of electricity, and screams and shouts rose and fell in succession

The sound of an electronic broadcast, reminiscent of someone who hasn't eaten, echoed within a small area

It is not easy for a person to live once; emotions are merely a means to witness history

The exacerbation of the concussion is hardly a concern with the medical techniques of interstellar civilization

This research vessel has clearly allocated all its funding to the laboratory in the lower deck, while the specifications of the bridge can only be described as shabby

Seven or eight men and women dressed in white lab coats surged towards the chamber where the Valkyrie was located; their eyes reflected a faint red glow, and their expressions were filled with utmost reverence

Requirements

Enough, Hanton

Brother can only assist you up to this point

"Adopt the opinions of Captain Handon III," Biggrove said, looking at the captain, "Let the most skilled technician operate, using lasers to penetrate her palms and soles, absolutely avoiding the heart, neck, and brain... It must be done with the precision of a scalpel"

Yang Ming lowered his head and moved forward, regardless of whether he had the qualifications to go to the control center, quickly jumped up the steps and stood behind several 'superiors'.

Yang Ming stepped back two paces, standing at the edge of the platform, staring at the changes on the screen

Are we not

As a mere third-rate repairman, I am completely unable to alter the course of events

Direct confrontation has occurred

In accordance with the information in Hanton's memory, the location he currently occupies is already very close to the bridge, and there should be no safety gates ahead.

No, the crisis has only been temporarily averted; we still need to leave this spaceship as soon as possible

Yang Ming quickly stepped inside and swiftly observed the environment here

This old man is waiting for me to persuade him

Congratulations, you have received this opportunity, three copies

But if I run slowly and get caught by the Valkyrie, my head will be chopped off

"Is the anesthetic gas ready?" Giggrove suddenly spoke up, interrupting the first officer's reprimand
