Shadows of the Deep Space

Capítulo 1662: Chapter 534: Return Voyage

Seven days later.

Countless mechanical engineers and many mechs were like diligent bees, collecting wreckage on the battlefield and bringing it back to the Sunshine and Grey Angel.

Excited shouts occasionally echoed in the public communication channel.

“This is the area at coordinates 1341, 3222, 2111, and I’ve found several Third Generation Mechas · Wind Chasers. Anyone want to come over and collect them?”

“Hey, why would you want a Wind Chaser? At least go for a Gun Knight, right?”

“Alright then, I’ll pick one up and bring it back.”

“Everyone, pay attention, if the damage is too high, don’t bother bringing it back!”

“Got it!”

…

Sunshine.

The entire ship, aside from a single passageway left open in the main channel, was completely packed with all kinds of mech remnants and dismantled ship equipment, blocking everything tightly.

As for the small passageways, they weren’t much better, filled with various mechanical parts and single soldier armors.

At this point, Rhein squeezed sideways through the living area passageway and saw an officer speaking to his companion.

“Chen Tao, dismantle the beds in your room and throw them out.”

“Huh, where will I sleep then?”

“Are you stupid? Just sleep in the mech cockpit. If you take the beds apart, you can fit dozens more Third Generation Exoskeleton Armors, and those things are really valuable!”

“Good point, maybe I’ll just dismantle all the furniture in my room.”

“You’re just thinking of this now? We dismantled ours long ago! The more we load, the more bonus we get. Then you can go back and get married.”

“Right, General Rhein!”

Chen Tao excitedly said halfway when he saw Rhein approaching, and immediately saluted with a tense expression.

“Mm.”

Rhein said nothing, just nodded slightly and continued walking forward.

Rhein quickly reached the hangar.

The hangar, originally neat and spacious, now resembled a jam-packed warehouse. Inside, there was even a dismantled, damaged Star Core Heart (low configuration), and an Advanced Superluminal Flight Device.

At this moment, Onite was directing his subordinates, shouting,

“Load the stuff we brought back into exit channel 42! Pack it properly, don’t just throw it in. If I see you wasting space, I’ll dock your pay!”

“Yes!”

One Iron Guard after another dragged damaged mechs into the exit channel.

Seeing this, Rhein’s mouth twitched continuously, and he walked over to Onite and said,

“Onite, isn’t this a bit too much? You’re even packing the exit channels? What if we need to fight?”

“Ah, I kept a few channels open for combat.”

“That’s still not enough.”

“What are you afraid of? The boss is here, who dares to intercept us? If we don’t grab more now, we’ll regret it later. I’m telling you, there’s so much wreckage here it’s endless!”

Onite said excitedly.

“Forget it, do what you want.”

Rhein couldn’t be bothered to argue with Onite, since he indeed had a point.

“By the way, where’s the boss? Haven’t seen him.”

Onite asked Rhein.

“He should be on the external platform of the ship enjoying the view. The boss has been in a bad mood lately, don’t mess with him!”

Rhein said to Onite.

“Understood.”

Onite nodded quickly in response.

…

On the external operation platform of the Sunshine.

Su Ming activated his symbiotic armor, sitting on the metal railing, quietly watching everyone busy at work, and sighed slightly.

At this time, Celeste floated beside Su Ming and said,

“Su Ming, why are you sitting here by yourself?”

“Hmm, what’s up?”

Su Ming turned to look at Celeste and asked.

“Nothing, are you in a bad mood?”

“Not really.”

“I don’t believe you, don’t just sit there, I’ll take you to see something good.”

Celeste said to Su Ming.

“Something good?”

Su Ming was slightly surprised.

“Just follow me.”

Celeste urged Su Ming.

“Alright then!”

Su Ming slowly stood up.

Celeste led Su Ming, floating towards the Grey Angel behind the Sunshine.

The two grew closer to the Grey Angel, its damaged hull coming into view. But even severely damaged, the entire ship gave off a suffocating sense of pressure.

Soon, Su Ming and Celeste entered the interior of the Grey Angel through a gaping hole.

Su Ming saw mechanical engineers in front of him, loading salvaged wreckage into the open areas of the passageways, packing the entire Grey Angel full.

“So much wreckage?”

“Who ever complains about having too much material? The more the better, we pack in as much as we can.”

Celeste said to Su Ming with a grin.

“Alright then.”

Su Ming nodded slightly.

“This way.”

Celeste led Su Ming towards the central command room.

As Su Ming walked, he inspected the interior facilities of the Grey Angel, finding that many internal devices were damaged, and even some of the main structures were deformed. Exposed wires could be seen everywhere.

Sizzle~

The corridor lights above flickered.

“Is the Grey Angel so severely damaged?”

“Yeah, this ship was sinking originally, although later Elshif merged with the Grey Angel, causing the ship to evolve, the evolution wasn’t complete!”

Celeste explained to Su Ming.

“Makes sense, is it easy to repair this ship?”

Su Ming nodded slightly.

“Easy to repair if it’s easy, difficult if it’s not.”

Celeste said with a grin.

“That answer sounded awkward. Normally it’s either easy or not.”

“Whether it’s easy or not depends mainly on you.”

“What does it have to do with me?”

Su Ming asked, an inexplicable twitch in his eye.
