Chapter 209 The Zerg Attack

"If you ask me, the timing was terrible; it's bad for both my health and my heart," Shi Zhiyan said, summing up the essence of the matter in one sentence.

The situation was already bad, and the sudden appearance of a child could bring countless dangers.

If Shi Li is born a boy, that would be fine, but if it's a girl and she inherits Shi Li's spiritual power, then everyone will be in even more trouble.

Not to mention the dangers and harms that production brings to Shili.

They are already struggling to survive, let alone take care of a small child.

“It’s all in the past now. No one is to blame. This guy just came at the wrong time.” Shi Li had come to terms with it. She probably never had the ability to protect the child from the very beginning.

Let it go with the wind. Dwelling on it will only hurt her.

"On the contrary, you guys, with chips implanted in your bodies, don't you feel uncomfortable?" Shi Li noticed that the group of people didn't seem to be in good spirits.

Joan was probably feeling down because she had been locked up for so long.

The remaining two were visibly withered.

"We're fine, but what about you? Are you feeling alright?" Shi Zhiyan lifted his drooping eyelids and stared straight at Shi Li.

"After everything you've been through, there hasn't been any time for you to rest and recuperate properly." Shi Zhiyan couldn't care less about anything else; he was just heartbroken.

He still remembers Shi Li's panicked expression before she was controlled and lost her consciousness.

He was so distressed that he wished he could end his life with a single blow before he was controlled.

"But what you two are wearing now makes me feel even worse." Shi Li looked bitter, but dared not touch the mecha suits they were wearing.

He simply held onto Joan's warm hand.

She was afraid, afraid that these two people would always be like this.

Jensen laughed, "It's alright, this is just a mecha connected to the nerves. We can remove it later to restore the original nerve connection."

Jensen has a really good attitude; he doesn't mention at all the risk that if the nerve connection is lost, his limbs will become completely useless.

The group tacitly avoided mentioning the matter.

Before they could say more than a few words, the group suddenly felt the warship tilt violently. Shi Li lost her footing, and if it weren't for Qiong An holding her and cushioning her fall, Shi Li would probably have fallen hard.

"Are you alright?" Shi Li quickly turned to check on Qiong An's condition.

"I'm fine, what happened?" Joan pressed Shi Li's restless head back into her arms, afraid that it would fly away again.

"Are you all alright? Quickly find a place to hold on, the Zerg are attacking!" The door was flung open, and Bai Qingye stumbled in.

"They attacked so quickly? Those bugs fly so fast?" Shi Zhiyan was somewhat surprised.

However, the person had already entered a state of combat readiness and began to try to steady themselves and stand up.

On the other side, Jensen, though not professionally trained, believed that he too needed to stand up and protect everyone because he had been modified.

"Maybe it's because all those who come have wings."

"Don't be afraid," Bai Qingye said to Shi Li.

I just asked Belon some questions and learned what Shili had gone through while they were all away.

Bai Qingye felt even more sorry for Shi Li.

It's hard to imagine how Shili managed to pull through on her own.

"We can't just sit here and wait to die, we have to deal with it quickly." After hearing this, Yan Sen was about to leave when Shi Li called him back.

"Too dangerous! Who knows how many bugs are on the other side?" Shi Li didn't care if she would fall or not, and rushed over to grab Yan Sen.

She might not have stopped them before, but after getting them back, Shi Li became increasingly anxious and afraid of losing them again. If she were to experience loss again, Shi Li felt she really wouldn't be able to bear it.

"You all can't afford to get into any more trouble."

"I feel like I no longer have the courage or energy to go find you all again." Shi Li felt her voice trembling, even trembling with sobs.

Being anxious about gains and losses has never been in her nature.

But after going through this, she was truly terrified.

His hands trembled uncontrollably, and then Jensen grasped them.

The cold mechanical shell made Shi Li unable to feel body temperature, but it also allowed Shi Li to hold it tightly.

"It won't happen again, don't worry." Jensen didn't know what else to say. He wasn't good at comforting people, and that was also what he truly felt.

How can I feel at ease?

"How can I be at ease when you're in this state?" Shi Li finally snapped, revealing all the unease, fear, and panic she had been feeling lately.

This was an emotion that Shili had never shown before.

The sight made everyone feel very sorry for them.

However, judging from Bai Qingye's flustered appearance when he came in, it's easy to imagine that there must be a lot of insects outside.

At this point, everyone on the warship was in a state of mutual survival.

Everyone needs to take this seriously.

There's no reason to hide inside.

The two modified beastmen were now overflowing with a sense of responsibility.

In particular, Jensen felt that he hadn't had a good opportunity to protect Shili before, and now he finally had the chance to prove his worth.

“But we want you to be safe and sound.” Jensen took a deep breath. He didn’t want to leave either, but he was forced by circumstances.

We can't all just sit here and wait to die, can we?

"Then I want to go with you all. I don't want to be alone anymore." Tears rolled down her cheeks.

Shi Li simply can't stand being alone anymore.

She prefers to face the current predicament together with everyone.

"Qiong An, you stay with her." Shi Zhiyan spoke seriously, saying very few words, just giving an order before leaving the room.

After Joan came forward and hugged Shili, Jensen shook off her hand and followed Bai Qingye out of the room.

"It might not have come to this point yet. You should have faith in our capabilities."

“The Zerg have been in a primitive state for so long, at least we still have a lot of weapons.” Joan could only try her best to comfort Shi Li, who was having an emotional breakdown.

“Many of those weapons are too powerful. If we use them, we might not be able to escape unscathed. Do you think that Belon guy is afraid of death and would use them?” Shi Li’s eyes were red with emotion, and she was almost fainting. She was using all her strength.

"Hague is nowhere to be found, do I have to lose them all too!" All the pent-up emotions she had been holding back were now poured out onto Joan.

Seeing that Joan seemed stunned and frightened, Shi Li couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

Because Joan didn't do anything wrong, and in fact, no one did anything wrong in the whole incident.

She had no reason to go crazy in front of Joan.

"I'm sorry," a feeling of regret filled Shi Li's heart.
