Chapter 1601: The Sun Chaser (Part 42)
By tracking the traces of celestial movement left in the universe, several people finally concluded the cause of the accident, which can be roughly summarized as follows:
The Infinity-class battleship of the Skrull Empire was destroyed by the Zerg and lost control and crashed into the planet, the planet crashed into the Shi'ar Empire battleship, the portal on the Shi'ar Empire battleship exploded, and was hit by a cosmic demon, the blown-up cosmic demon crashed into a Zerg mother nest, the Zerg mother nest crashed into an Asgard general who was fighting with him, and the Asgard general crashed into the neutron star...
Several people were silent, and Peter was the first to sigh and said: "Forget it, let's find another spaceship, at least transport the body of this Zerg back to Earth first."
After speaking, he raised his head and looked around, and then found that the Skrull Empire battleship that lost control at the beginning was floating quietly around the star. For some reason, the terrifying Zerg did not tear the spaceship into pieces, but let it be abandoned here.
"Doom thinks we should go to that spaceship. Doom has the ability to repair it as good as new." Doom said in his usual indifferent tone.
"It seems that this is the only way." Schiller sighed.
Peter raised his eyebrows. As the person who was most familiar with Schiller, he found that Dr. Schiller seemed to be a little bit wrong. Schiller turned to look at him and said, "Your intuition is right. Dr. Schiller has gone to cooperate with Professor X's treatment. You'd better not count on me."
Banner and Otto looked at Schiller in surprise. They didn't believe that Schiller would say "don't count on me". Even though they didn't deal with Schiller much, they knew that Schiller wished that the whole world would count on him.
"What I said is true." Schiller sighed again and said, "There is also a gap between Schiller and me. Although I am not very weak, but..."
Just then, the life support bracelet on Otto's wrist beeped twice. Otto raised his hand and looked at it, saying, "My life support device is running out of energy. Let's find a place with oxygen production equipment first."
Schiller used the gray fog to take them to the battleship of the Skrull Empire. Before entering, he used the gray fog factor to explore it. After finding that there was no danger, several people landed on the deck.
The power system of this spacecraft was not damaged, but the transmission components were out of control. Doom and Peter found that it could be repaired after some inspection, but Banner found something wrong.
"Judging from the extent of the damage to this battleship, it is impossible for the soldiers of the Skrull Empire to abandon the ship and flee. Moreover, why don't those bugs stay and completely eat the spaceship? They eat everything..."
At this time, Otto frowned and looked at the sun not far away through the porthole. He seemed to have discovered something, and then his face changed and he shouted to the others: "Get out of here quickly, Schiller, take us away quickly!!!"
"What's wrong?" Peter turned his head and looked at him and asked.
"The sun is going to explode!! Go!!!!"
As soon as Otto's shouting fell, Schiller found that the starlight that was originally emitting warmth gradually began to become cold, and the shining light ball in the space began to change from warm color to silver-white, which was the precursor of the supernova explosion.
In an instant, the gray mist spread again, and Schiller took a few people to fly towards the outer edge of the star system. When they completely flew out of this star system, the shining silver-white light had spread, and another star had reached the end of its life.
"It must be that the Skrull Empire hit the star while fighting with the bugs, destroying the internal structure of the star and accelerating the evolution of the star. They knew that they could not repair the damage to the spacecraft in a short time, and the damaged external shield could not resist the power of the solar explosion, so they evacuated urgently."
Several people watched the gorgeous fireworks silently on an asteroid outside the star system. Schiller said: "I'm afraid I have to introduce myself to you. I actually..."
"Don't say it, doctor, I just saw that there are actually quite a few spacecraft wreckages near this galaxy. We can pick up some parts and build one ourselves, right, Dr. Doom?"
Peter turned his head to look at Doom, but Doom looked at the asteroid under his feet and said: "Doom can make a planetary engine, plus an external shield, we can drive this asteroid directly away from here."
Peter nodded, thinking that what he said made sense. Otto and Banner thought it was okay. Schiller wanted to say something, but Peter had already started to act.
Peter and Doom can both move around in the universe under normal conditions. Peter mainly relies on the symbiote Red Bee in his body, while Doom relies on his mechanical armor, but Banner and Otto can only maintain basic survival and have no mobility.
Therefore, Peter and Doom split into two groups, each searching for possible wreckage parts, while Schiller took Banner and Otto to search in another direction. They agreed to meet on the asteroid after finding the engine parts.
Half an hour later, the three groups looked at each other empty-handed. They found all the spacecraft parts around the entire star system - except for the engine.
If there was anyone in this team who was not a scientist, they would have started complaining a long time ago, but the scientists in this team not only had a high academic level, but also had suffered a lot. Their main goal was to enter the map with 300 people and open an Internet cafe downstairs.
No ready-made ones? It doesn't matter, everything can be made, who doesn't know how to make a spaceship engine by hand?
A quality that any good scientist must have is not to be afraid of failure, because there are too many failures than successes on the road of scientific research. All scientists who have made a name for themselves on this road have extraordinary perseverance, dare to face countless failures, and are never afraid to start over again.
Under normal circumstances, this is a good quality, but in a person's life, there will always be some not very common situations.
"Bang! Bang!"
"Cough cough... cough cough cough... Damn it, what's going on?!!"
Peter coughed hard twice, waved his hand in front of his eyes to disperse the black smoke from his mouth, and stared at the engine that had just been running for a few seconds and then exploded in half, puzzled.
"Doom thinks there is something wrong with the magnetic field on this planet." Doom concluded, and said, "Because apart from the problem of the test site, no production problems have been found. Our design ideas and practices are correct."
"I think, why don't we..."
"Wait, what is that?" Banner frowned and looked into the distance. He saw some shining red dots at the end of the dark universe.
"It's the eyes of those damn bugs! They are back, we have to leave here!" Peter looked at the parts on the ground helplessly, but he was not discouraged at all.
"Sorry, doctor, I'm afraid I have to trouble you again." Peter obviously didn't care about what Schiller said before, that Schiller was also different, but still regarded Schiller as a whole.
Schiller tried to explain several times but failed. In the end, he could only sigh helplessly and said, "Okay, let's go."
Schiller turned into gray mist again and took a few people to escape the clutches of the returning Zerg. Peter, Doom and the Hulk in Banner's body all have the ability to fight the Zerg, but the first problem they need to solve now is to charge the life-support props and ensure the integrity of the Zerg corpses in their hands.
The way to charge the life-support props has been found. Just find a normal star system to bask in the sun for a while. The corpse is also well preserved and not harmed.
The only problem is that on the journey across several star systems, they couldn't find a spaceship that could be driven or the materials that could be used to make a spaceship.
All along the way, Schiller took them flying. Every time they landed on a planet, they could not stay for a long time because of accidents such as sudden explosion of stars, sudden fall of meteorites, sudden cracking of the earth's crust, sudden derailment of satellites, sudden attack of Zerg, and sudden deviation of weapons. They had to move quickly in a short time.
After finally finding another planet, Schiller finally couldn't hold on any longer. He held the protruding stone pillars on the planet's crust with one hand and put his other hand on his waist, panting and saying, "I really can't fly anymore."
Peter looked at him in disbelief. Schiller shook his head and explained, "Gray Mist is not tired, but I am very tired, mainly mentally."
Now the other people looked at him in shock. Schiller sighed deeply and said, "I have said that I am not greedy for money and not for life. I just want to find a place to stay safely. I..."
"Buzz-buzz-"
A sharp vibration came, and Peter's spider sense was blaring. When he turned around, he saw two humanoid Zergs jumping out of a deep purple portal in the space behind him.
The one in the lead had green skin, tentacles on his head, and wings on his back. He was the culprit of the invasion of the Zerg.
"That damn group of demons... Forget it, I will settle accounts with them later. Let's first... Humans??!!!"
"Get ready for battle!" Peter shouted.
Schiller had to turn into gray mist again, but watching Peter and Doom flying smoothly, and Banner and Otto waiting on the surface to attack them, he couldn't help but ask in his heart: "Gray mist, how do I fight normally?"
"You don't fight normally." Gray mist answered very bluntly.
"Then how do you fight normally?"
"I don't fight normally either."
Schiller was speechless, and gray mist said in his heart: "But I have seen Schiller, who is very good at fighting, fight. How about you learn from him?"
"How does he fight?"
"No matter what you hit, just go up and cut him with a knife."
"Okay, I'll try."
Instantly, the drifting gray mist retracted near Schiller, forming an extremely dense fog around Schiller. Schiller exerted force instantly and flashed in front of the Annihilator at an extremely high speed that was difficult to capture with the naked eye.
The huge blade light made of gray mist slashed towards the Annihilator like a crescent moon. The Annihilator turned around and flexibly flapped its wings to dodge to the side.
Schiller did his best to fight, and the gray mist also cooperated with him as much as possible, but they did not consider one problem, that is, what to do if the slash was off.
After being dodged by the Annihilator, the huge blade light had no intention of turning or disappearing, and slashed straight towards the portal that the Annihilator had just jumped out of.
The Annihilator was horrified. Before he could even utter the word "no", the huge blade light condensed by the gray fog factor slashed at the portal. The space explosion caused by the imbalance of the dimensional transmission structure instantly swept the entire star system.
Endless ripples spread out. At both ends of the portal, the Cosmic Demon, the Annihilator and the Greedy, Doctor Doom Doom, Spider-Man, and even Banner and Otto who stayed on the surface of the planet could not even scream. They were all blown away by the huge explosion.
Schiller, the only one who was not blown away, looked at the empty space around him and said uncertainly.
"Is this considered a victory for me... count it?"
What an unlucky guy
