Xunguang research vessel.

Drawn on a dark blue rhombus crystal, a flag with gold patterns on the edge flutters in the wind.

Under the folded sail of the main mast, there was a scar on his neck. A particularly tall man put down his telescope with an indifferent expression.

"Adjutant Keller, let the people below take good care of these survivors. Mr. Rosser's experiment is at a critical moment and needs more materials. These people came at the right time. If nothing happens, they will arrive at their destination tomorrow morning.

, the experiment must make a breakthrough before then."

"Sir, Lord Rosser asked me to send two more people over just now. Do you want to dispose of the remaining materials on the ship first, and then use these new ones..."

A middle-aged man named Keller took a step forward. Before he could finish speaking, a loud noise suddenly came from behind him.

Boo~

Just like the roar of a cannon when it is ejected, it echoes to the bottom of the cabin.

The dark cabin of more than 60 square meters was divided into multiple independent spaces by iron fences. Except for the area near the door, which was a space for soldiers to move freely, the other compartments were all occupied by humans or animals.

In the prison against the wall, Yan Jing and the survivors beside him raised their heads when they heard the noise.

I thought there was an explosion somewhere, but I found that several soldiers separated by an iron fence were still sitting on wooden benches playing cards. Next to them was a mechanical device that looked like a water dispenser, with a machine inlaid on the top.

A light blue crystal.

These people didn't look surprised at all, as if they were already familiar with this kind of noise.

The light from the only window in the cell cabin was facing them. Compared to the brilliant golden color when Yan Jing first arrived, the sunlight was now gradually turning orange, and it was almost evening.

The few survivors waited for a while and saw that nothing unexpected happened. The hope in their eyes disappeared again, and they bowed their heads and were speechless.

'Event task one has been completed, and the rewards will be distributed at the final settlement...'

Yan Jing breathed a sigh of relief as the task completion reminder finally appeared in his mind, but he couldn't help but frown the next second.

Yan Jing didn't resist at the time when the ship was broken.

The reason is very simple. The fact that this research ship is mentioned in the first task of the event undoubtedly means that the subsequent tasks will also start from here.

What's more, within a few kilometers of the surrounding area, apart from the ship, there was an endless sea of ​​sand.

Yan Jing didn't want to stay where he was and watch the swarm of worms baring their teeth that would most likely come back.

Of course, as long as he can get on the ship, he doesn't care what his identity is.

Only after he got on the boat did Yan Jing understand why the middle-aged man was so desperate when he saw the flag of the Origin Sect.

At this time, they were in the bottom prison of the entire ship. Regardless of whether a research ship with a prison was serious or not, by observing the blood stains in the cell, the bloody scratches left by fingernails on the wall, and the several cells next door.

The only sound left is the prisoner and the prisoner beast.

They, or rather the despair exuding from them, made Yan Jing quickly realize that staying in the cell was never a good idea.

Two event tasks remain.

Whether it was obtaining a potion or the ruins of Landis, he was not able to access it as a prisoner. He had to obtain an identity as soon as possible that allowed him to move freely on the ship.

I glanced at my status panel and saw that everything was normal, except that my body was feeling a little uncomfortable due to the extreme lack of water spiritual power in the environment.

The clothes on the body are automatically replaced with blood robes, but the appearance is changed. The items in the torch space can still be accessed.

The simplest and most convenient method that Yan Jing can think of right now is to find an opportunity to kill a crew member and replace his identity.

The problem is that there are too many prisoners in the cell. If he takes action here, the prisoners will inevitably make noises. Even if Yan Jing kills all the three soldiers outside, it will be meaningless.

You have to find an opportunity to be taken out alone!

Bang~bang~

There was a sudden knock on the cabin door.

The three soldiers hid the cards with ease, and one of them turned around and opened the door.

When he saw the scene outside the door, there was a commotion in the cell.

I saw two soldiers dragging a limp man into the cell. His exposed left arm was actually flashing with a strange phosphorescence, and sometimes even the flesh and blood meridians in it could be seen, as if it had become a translucent spirit body.

.....

Such a weird situation made Yan Jing immediately think of what the middle-aged man said on the broken ship. The ship was carrying a mad scientist.

The soldiers still looked unsurprised at this situation. One person held a key and was about to open the cell door, while the other two stood guard with weapons in hand.

"Lord Rosser needs to send two more materials, starting with the remaining people from before. These materials that have just boarded the ship can be kept for a while."

The soldier who sent the prisoners over glanced at the several cells in the cabin and spoke directly without covering up.

In their view, the fate of these people in front of them has been determined.

However, this cold tone still made the survivors who had just entered the cell become more and more depressed, and the low sobs and lamentations started to sound again.

Yan Jing sat in the corner, sizing up the soldiers and thinking about how to implement his plan, when he saw a survivor in front of him stood up and rushed towards the iron door of the cell.

"You bastards, if I get out alive, I will kill everyone in the origin-tracing school, and let your family members taste what it's like to be captured and do various experiments..."

The man grabbed the cell railings, shouted hysterically, and poured out his anger at the soldiers outside. He kept spewing obscene words and went straight to greet the female family members of these soldiers.

Yan Jing, who was sitting in the corner, looked at this man with confusion in his eyes.

He knew this person. One of the two people who had grabbed the only lifeboat had not paid much attention just now. Only then did Yan Jing realize that they had not escaped either.

You must know that the worm swarm did not attack them, and Yan Jing's action of shooting on the broken ship also bought them time to escape to some extent. The two people did not escape before the traceability sect arrived.

The scene he had seen on the broken ship flashed through his mind. Yan Jing remembered that the two men were extremely concerned about their lives when the merchant ship was in trouble. They even threw things at other survivors to let them be eaten by swarms of worms, thereby buying themselves time to retreat.

.

In this situation, provoking the soldiers guarding them is undoubtedly seeking death.

However, this person who was extremely selfish not long ago did the opposite in this situation.

It is said that he suffered a mental breakdown because he finally escaped but was imprisoned.

Why is there no response from the other person?

Turning his eyes to the other side of the prison, he was riding in the same lifeboat as the guy who was making a fuss at the door of the prison. The man, who had cooperated quite well, was now sitting quietly by a fence.

His right leg was bent, his palm resting on it, his knuckles tapping his knee, and his face hidden under the hood.

The provocateur's words quickly angered the guarding soldiers.

The two people who planned to take away the prisoners in other prisons instead walked towards the cell where Yan Jing was.

Is he planning to take this opportunity to escape?

Yan Jing frowned.
Chapter completed!
