Eight Hundred and Thirty-Seven Chapter 1
The crew member was very surprised, but he didn't ask a word. After Ye Han cleaned it up, the log was delivered to him. ?WwW.suimeng.lā.
Ye Han shook the diary, said thank you and then floated into the living area. He floated into the deserted passage. The passage was so quiet that only Ye Han floated forward slowly.
At this time, most of the crew members were busy at their respective posts, while the marines were recalling the battle on Europa Zero, or looking at the empty bed next to them in memory of their comrades, or silently staring at something in a daze.
After returning to the dormitory, Ye Han threw the diary onto the desk, jumped onto the bed, and put himself into a sleeping bag.
The log floated near the table and was immediately sucked by the table, making a soft "click" sound.
Ye Han ignored the log and opened the inflatable armor to inflate the air bag. He soon felt a little pressure on his body, which made him feel more comfortable, but his heart could not calm down. Many team members had sacrificed. One after another passed before his eyes, and finally, Liu Bin's smiling face was frozen in front of his eyes.
But Liu Bin's smile soon turned into a scream, and then Ye Han seemed to hear a bang, and Liu Bin suddenly fell apart and turned into a rain of blood.
Ye Han didn't want to think about the tragic situation when Liu Bin died, but he couldn't control himself at all. He knew that the best way at this time was to divert his attention. When he raised his head, his eyes fell on the voyage log belonging to the Summer Bay. .
Picking up the log, Ye Han took a deep breath and opened the first page of the log. A few lines of words were written on it: February 26, 2024, the moon, the first fleet of the expeditionary force set off, heading for Jupiter...
Just two lines of words brought back Ye Han's dusty memory, thinking of the first fleet that was completely wiped out.
Continuing to look down, there are a few lines of text after two empty lines: On January 22, 2025, near Jupiter, the fleet was about to arrive at the star, discovered an alien spacecraft, and woke up the crew in advance.
Ye Han felt a slight pain in his heart, so he simply flipped through a few pages and finally found something different on the fourth page.
My name is Lu Peng, a Marine on board the Summer Bay, with the rank of lieutenant. I will take the Summer Bay to Jupiter with the First Fleet of the Expeditionary Force in early 2024.
The following content was recorded in mid-February 2025. My only purpose in recording these things is to hope that someone can see it in the future.
The writing of this paragraph is very sloppy and can only be barely legible and occasionally requires guessing. At first glance, it looks like it was written by someone who doesn't write for many years.
But this passage successfully attracted Ye Han's attention.
He immediately looked down and continued with two empty lines after that paragraph:
January 28, 2025, Europa.
The Summer Bay crashed into Europa during the battle. Captain Niu Xinyu ordered the Summer Bay to self-destruct. My other comrades and I were in the landing craft at the time. After hearing the order, everyone was stunned. We were mentally prepared and should have waited for the battleship to self-destruct, but captain Li Wenzhe suddenly fired a cannon, blew through the door, and left the ship in a landing craft...
Seeing this, Ye Han vaguely remembered a person. That person looked fair and clean, and he didn't look like a soldier at all.
When he first arrived on the moon, Li Wenzhe was still a captain. Before the expedition departed, he was promoted to major and was responsible for commanding the marines on the Summer Bay.
Ye Han continued to read:
We were all shocked and wanted to stop Li Wenzhe, but Li Wenzhe suddenly shouted at us: "You don't want to live, I think!"
We were all stunned. In fact, we had all thought about death and were mentally prepared. But when the time came, all of us hesitated.
It is better to die than to live. Who would want to die if he could live?
It's ridiculous to think about it now. If I had died at that time, how could I have lived in such pain? But there is no regret medicine in this world, so what's the use of regretting now.
The countdown to self-destruction was only ten seconds. It was impossible for the landing craft to fly to a safe zone within ten seconds. In order to run farther, Li Wenzhe turned on the brake rocket as soon as he flew out of the Summer Bay and used the rocket to accelerate. The ten-second countdown ended. After that, the landing craft had flown out for almost a kilometer.
Thinking about it afterwards, being able to fly one kilometer in ten seconds is pretty good. If it had been any slower, all of us would have died.
Then the Summer Bay exploded behind us, and the battleship was shattered by the nuclear bomb. My eyes lit up, and the landing craft was overturned by the shock wave and fell directly from the sky. Fortunately, that bastard Li Wenzhe lowered its height.
The landing craft fell to the ground, and I almost fainted, but I quickly woke up. Maybe we were too close, and the ground shook very hard like an earthquake, but it went away quickly as it came, and it didn't take long. The earthquake stopped. I immediately leaned against the window and looked back. I happened to see the mushroom cloud rising, and the broken steel pieces falling from the sky like rain. I watched them fall with my own eyes, smashing the hull of the boat. Keep ringing.
The Summer Bay was not blown to pieces. I saw a few big pieces falling down with my own eyes. Maybe it was because of its size and weight. These pieces fell directly from the sky and fell under the Summer Bay.
This log was found by aliens from the wreckage of the Summer Bay. They rummaged through the wreckage and sent everything they found to us...
Let’s digress and continue talking about January 28th.
We happened to land in a patch of insect trees. The insect trees outside were blown down by the shock wave. They burned extremely hot when they fell to the ground, and the smoke was extremely heavy. Many insect trees had their roots pulled out. I still looked back. I saw that insect trees can grow as tall as several stories.
There was also a radiation alarm, which had not stopped since the landing craft landed. The radiation meter exploded directly, and the pointer was bent. Fortunately, the three-proof equipment was not broken.
The landing craft could not fly after the fall, but the fall was not serious. After a while, everyone woke up.
Our deputy captain was Huang Biao, a captain, tall and strong, and a very upright person. As soon as he woke up, he held Li Wenzhe and asked him why he drove the landing craft out.
Wenzhe argued at the time, saying that he didn't want to die, that he wanted to live, and that there was hope only if he lived. In short, his mood was not very good. At that time, we were all in a mess. They both took out their guns, and we wanted to stop them.
I remember the words Captain Huang said at the time very clearly. He said that I also want to live, and I don't want to die, but if I don't die now, what will happen if I fall into the hands of aliens? If we don't die, what will happen to mankind? What about the earth? What about the relatives on earth?
At that time, I really thought that even if we fell into the hands of aliens, it would not matter. What if the aliens could use a few of us to wipe out the human race?
Now that I think about it, I was wrong. The aliens could not use us to wipe out anyone, but they found a breakthrough in us and also understood humans through us.
