Chapter 2556: Zero Useful Skills

Ning Shu had zero useful skills. She was an utterly useless person right now.
“Are the other refugees alright?” Ning Shu asked, referring to the people of Sehlde that they’d brought with them on the spaceship. When so many people were stuck in the same place, friction was bound to happen.
“Some people did cause some trouble, but Owen has already killed those troublemakers,” Alviss indifferently said. “He shot them with one of the laser guns and they turned into a pile of dust. Everyone is behaving nicely for the time being.”
Those people had to first receive an example for them to behave.
“Some people wanted to seize control of the spaceship. How short-sighted—what they want is just to take all the food on the spaceship. Even if they manage to seize the spaceship, what are they going to do with it?
“That I let them board the spaceship is already kind enough,” Alviss said.
If those people stayed on Sehlde, they would definitely die. That planet was now on fire.
Ning Shu nodded. If they didn’t show some authority over those people, the spaceship might fall into chaos.
“How far away is the next planet?” Ning Shu asked.
“The AI said it is several dozen lightyears away,” Alviss said.
Ning Shu: …
Ning Shu started counting on her fingers. The speed of light is about 300,000 kilometers per second. One hour is 300,000 kilometers multiplied by 60, which is 18 million kilometers. In 24 hours a day, it should be 18 million kilometers and then multiplied by 24, 365 days a year….
It was all too much for her tiny brain. Ning Shu couldn’t continue calculating it anymore.
Such a distance was beyond Ning Shu’s imagination.
Ning Shu stopped counting, and instead just asked, “Then, when will we arrive?”
“It will take a while.”
Alviss pushed his wheelchair out of the room. He said to Ning Shu, “Go ahead and rest. We’re still far away from the next planet.”
Ning Shu closed the door and began to cultivate the Unsurpassable Martial Arts. Her body was in a horrendous condition right now. Cultivating the Unsurpassable Martial Arts could slowly repair her body and allow her to live longer.
After she finished cultivating, Ning Shu went to learn how to operate a spaceship from Alviss. If she ever found herself in a disadvantaged position in the future, the ability to operate a spaceship would allow her to run away faster.
As soon as Ning Shu entered the control room, she saw Alviss and Vivian talking.
She pulled back her foot that was already in the room. Would she disturb the two lovebirds if she went in?
Vivian noticed and waved at Ning Shu. “Alyssa!”
Ning Shu finally walked over and asked, “What are you guys doing?”
“Alviss is telling me a story,” Vivian said.
Vivian seemed to really enjoy listening to stories. Ning Shu asked, “What story?”
“It’s a story about a powerful mecha pilot falling in love with an ordinary woman. Everything that happens in the story is so thrilling,” Vivian said with longing in her eyes. “It’s a really beautiful story.”
Ning Shu: …
Ning Shu glanced at Alviss. She didn’t know that he could tell this kind of story as well.
Ning Shu then looked at Vivian and asked, “What kind of thrilling things happen in the story? In order to catch and kill the mecha pilot, does the villain use the ordinary woman as bait to trick him?”
“How do you know? Did Alviss also tell you this story?” Vivian asked Ning Shu in surprise.
Ning Shu: …
It was just logical. In a story where a strong mecha pilot and an ordinary woman were paired, it was only natural that the ordinary woman was the one responsible for being the weak one out of the two. The powerful mecha pilot, on the other hand, would become like a firefighter who’d always dutifully save her.
The knight would always come to save the princess. That was simply how fairy tales were.
When Snow White choked and fell into a slumber, the prince sucked spit out of her throat so she could breathe again.
At least, that was how Ning Shu remembered the story. Either way, the prince kissed Snow White and made her wake up from her slumber.
Vivian just couldn’t control her surging, girlish heart.
“What’s the ending?” Ning Shu asked. “Does the villain kill the ordinary woman?”
