Chapter 2522: She Would Definitely Come Back
Alyssa’s plan was, once she became a mecha pilot and had her own artificial intelligence spacecraft, she would come back and take her younger brother away from this place.
Furthermore, she would make a pair of mecha legs for him, so that he could get out of his wheelchair and stand up.
When Alyssa was going to set off, her brother begged her not to.
He tumbled off his wheelchair and crawled to her. He hugged her leg and pleaded for her not to leave him.
However, Alyssa knew that this was her only chance to change both her own fate, and that of her brother’s. She had to go.
Alyssa repeatedly assured her brother that she would definitely come back. Definitely.
Alyssa stepped onto the spaceship and left Sehlde.
When she looked at Planet Sehlde from the spaceship, all she could see was a dirty mist floating above the planet’s surface and endless mountains of garbage on it.
All she could see was desolateness. Occasionally, Alyssa would listen to the people chatting around her. They said that Planet Sehlde would, sooner or later, collapse, as it had run out of energy.
Soon, Alyssa also found out that there was no such thing as a free lunch, and that it was impossible for a pie to suddenly fall from the sky.
These people had gone to Planet Sehlde to find people with strong mental strength. However, the reason why they did it was not to train powerful mecha pilots. Instead, they wanted to take away these people’s mental strength.
But why Planet Sehlde, of all the planets in the interstellar system? It was because of the interstellar treaty, which they did not dare to blatantly violate.
The interstellar union supervisors, however, wouldn’t care if they used people from Planet Sehlde.
The planet was not included in the clauses of the interstellar treaty.
What would happen to a person if they were deprived of their mental strength? Well, if they didn’t become mentally disabled, then they would die.
Alyssa, for one, died.
She couldn’t go back to Planet Sehlde. She couldn’t go back to see her brother, let alone make mecha legs for him and see him stand up.
Alyssa only wanted to survive and live with her brother.
If she had known that this would happen, she would never have left her brother, no matter what.
Alyssa hoped that her younger brother could stand up and that they could leave the planet together.
Ning Shu let out a long breath. She didn’t dare to inhale too much. If she inhaled too much, she would definitely choke and cry.
She was now really determined to leave Planet Sehlde.
However, leaving was easier said than done.
If they could leave, there wouldn’t be so many people still left behind and living on Planet Sehlde.
They really were living like rats. They were surviving by eating garbage and multiplying just like rats would.
Alyssa’s wishes were to live on, to leave Planet Sehlde with her younger brother, and to make it so that he would be able to stand. Besides those wishes, she also wanted to become a mecha pilot.
Ning Shu, who had no way to cultivate in this task world, was utterly dumbfounded.
Without enough physical strength, how was she supposed to scavenge and find food?
What a hopeless place this was to be.
Ning Shu rubbed her stomach. She was so hungry.
She rubbed her legs, which were a little numb because she had been sitting cross-legged for so long, and began to… well, dig through the garbage.
After much struggle, she unearthed a broken mecha arm.
It was quite finely made. The joints could bend and allowed for free movement.
However, it was too heavy. Ordinary people wouldn’t be able to use it all. Mental strength must be used to control the mecha.
This was the reason why some people would go to disturbing lengths to extract mental strength from other people.
Those who had gotten their mental strength taken away from them would not meet a good end. They all either went insane or died.
Even if they only went insane, such damage to the brain would be mostly irreversible. They would remain insane for the rest of their life.
Ning Shu ignored the broken mecha arm. If she could cultivate, she might be able to carry this around and use it as a weapon. Alas…
Ning Shu thought about it and then decided to bury the broken mecha arm under some garbage. Perhaps she could find some use for it in the future…
Ning Shu continued to dig around. In the process, she touched some unidentifiable things. She didn’t even dare to imagine what they could be. She feared that she’d throw up if she did.
