Chapter 2549: Power in Numbers

The people from Planet Sehlde were hoping to find food. They wanted to finally have a meal that’d make them feel full.
In the process of looking for a meal, they had already killed several members of the spaceship’s crew.
On the other hand, some of the crew members had also taken up weapons and frantically massacred them.
There was power in numbers, though. The people of Sehlde had only one thought in their minds: as long as they occupied this spaceship, they would be able to leave Sehlde and have something to eat.
They crazily broke everything around them and looked for food everywhere they could.
After much struggle, Ning Shu and her team pushed forward. While Ning Shu dealt with the androids, Alviss dealt with the surrounding detectors.
Although these androids could probably still transmit the information that they received to the artificial intelligence that was running this ship, the more security devices they could destroy, the better.
Many people from Planet Sehlde were killed. They didn’t even leave a body to be buried. Instead, they were directly vaporized into ashes.
Ning Shu gritted her teeth. If they wanted to break through the crisis in front of them, they definitely had to make sacrifices.
Staying on Planet Sehlde would result in their deaths, and so would retreating now. It was better for them to continue pushing forward. Besides, there was no such thing as gain without pain.
Even living was something that was difficult and painful. For Ning Shu, life had always been something that she had to struggle for.
The number of androids coming at them was gradually decreasing. Ning Shu didn’t know if the spaceship was running out of androids, or if the androids were gathering together to launch a big attack.
She and the others stopped in front of a thick metal door. It seemed to somewhat resemble stainless steel, but it was probably some other relatively expensive material.
The door had no handle. There was nothing to open the door with, but there was a scanner beside the door. It must be something that could detect the identity of the person that wanted to open the door.
Ning Shu felt a headache coming. How was she supposed to get inside?
She felt that the control room must be behind this door.
She hit the door with a shot from the laser gun, but the door didn’t budge. It stayed as clean as a brand-new thing. The attack left not a single spot nor a smudge on it.
What move would be the safest one right now? Should she knock on the door, or should she wait for the people inside to come out?
Ning Shu thought for a while, then took out a five-pointed star military emblem from her pocket.
When Jayce had grabbed her by the collar, Ning Shu had taken advantage of the moment and swiped this military emblem off his clothes.
She didn’t know if this thing would work, though…
Ning Shu held the military emblem in her hand and cautiously reached into the detection range.
“Honorable Sir Jayce, please come in.” A female voice, which sounded very artificial and mechanical, sounded out.
The door slowly opened. Ning Shu was the first to go in.
The people who were in the control room were already in a panic. Someone cursed and said, “This AI must be retarded. Is it even f*cking working!?”
“Hands up!”
Ning Shu pointed her gun at them. A group of people rushed in from behind and, following Ning Shu’s example, shouted, “Hands up!”
The crew members stared at the laser guns in fear. They knew how powerful those guns were.
“Round them up,” Alviss said to Owen. Owen immediately stepped forward and directly tore off the rags on his body. Then, he used those torn-off rags to bind the crew members’ hands behind their backs. He even bound their feet together.
There were not many people in the control room, and they were all quickly tied up.
Ning Shu looked around the extremely large control room, still holding her gun carefully. The control room seemed packed with confusing, strange objects. There were all kinds of buttons and screens in it.
Goodness gracious. This room was too complex for her. She felt like she was looking at a scene from a science fiction movie.
Ning Shu scratched her head. This was going to be quite difficult. She needed to first get used to these screens and buttons. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to operate this spaceship.
It seemed that she needed to learn how to operate this thing.
Vivian helped Alviss to Ning Shu’s side. He pointed at a diagram and pressed a red button with his finger.
A rapid beeping noise immediately sounded in the control room.
