Chapter 2531: At Least They Had Each Other to Rely On
Alviss had told her that it was going to be dark soon.
Just like he said, it didn’t take long until the sky slowly turned dark outside.
Ning Shu: Damn…
All of her knowledge about how the world worked, which had served her well before, was completely useless here.
She found this tragic and saddening.
Ning Shu beat the quilt with a stick to remove the dust that’d piled up on it and carried the quilt into their room.
Since the sun was now gone, the temperature plummeted.
Ning Shu grabbed Alviss’ waist and lifted him onto the plank bed. Then, she began massaging his calf.
“Stop massaging my legs. They’re still going to be paralyzed no matter how much you massage them,” said Alviss.
“That may be so, but it will help with your blood flow.”
Ning Shu pressed the acupuncture points on Alviss’ legs. If only she had some silver needles with her—she could give him acupuncture treatment, too.
It could allow his qi and blood to flow better without obstruction.
But where could she find silver needles here?
Ning Shu massaged the acupuncture points on Alviss’ legs with all her strength, and asked, “Do you feel anything?”
A normal person would feel hurt, as if they’d been pricked by a needle, or sore, when someone put pressure on their acupuncture point.
However, Alviss only shook his head and said, “I don’t feel anything.”
This response didn’t frustrate Ning Shu. After all, Alviss had been paralyzed for a very long time. He couldn’t possibly get better just by getting some massages from her.
Ning Shu continued massaging him for a while. Then, she lay down next to him and said, “Stay close to me. It’s warmer when we’re close to each other.”
Alviss leaned closer towards Ning Shu.
Planet Sehlde was a harsh place to live in. However, at least they had each other to rely on. Being able to support each other to survive was still quite heartwarming.
Although, in Ning Shu’s opinion, a kid like Alviss shouldn’t be living on Planet Sehlde.
She opened her eyes and stared into the darkness. Soon, those scouts would come to the planet to find people who had mental strength, which they could then sap away.
These people were her and Alviss’ only chance to escape this planet.
However, quite a few of these people were mecha pilots. One mecha pilot could easily and effortlessly kill a large group of Sehlde natives.
It wouldn’t be easy to hijack their spaceship.
Even if Ning Shu managed to seize their spaceship, there was still the possibility that she might not be able to use it.
An artificial intelligence spaceship was capable of automatically identifying outsiders and contacting allied spaceships to call for aid.
The advanced technology that the other planets had was unimaginable to the people of Planet Sehlde.
Alyssa didn’t even know who these people truly were.
When they arrived, they came in a spaceship that seemed truly magical to her. She had never seen such a shiny thing before. Inside the spaceship, they even had clean food and water!
The spaceship seemed to be heaven with an engine. As an ignorant and helpless child, Alyssa was at the whims and fancies of the people who owned this heaven.
Ning Shu had no delusion of being able to beat that many people with the current body that she possessed, which was tiny and weak.
She needed a good plan.
However, in the face of great, absolute strength, cleverness might not necessarily work, either…
Next to Ning Shu, Alviss was already asleep. The sound of his even breathing calmed her down.
Being impatient would only put her in a more disadvantaged position.
Ning Shu moved closer towards Alviss. She tucked herself close to him and went to sleep.
Ning Shu was afraid of being harshly woken up by the extreme heat, like yesterday, so she woke herself up early at dawn.
Quickly, Ning Shu fell into a routine. After tidying everything up in the early morning, Ning Shu went out to look for something to eat. Sometimes, she would find books and take them back so Alviss could read them.
Occasionally, she’d flip through the books, though she didn’t recognize any of the words in them.
Alyssa, the original host, was completely illiterate. As such, Ning Shu, too, could not read anything in this world.
