National Development: I built a base on the rock beast - Chapter 123
Chapter 123 A bet with God!
In the previous secondary explosion, Duan Ming was lucky enough not to be in the core area of the explosion, but the huge impact caused by the explosion still caused him to briefly lose control of his body.
In these few seconds, a metal ore particle the size of a rice grain, driven by the energy generated by the explosion, was grazing Duan Ming’s titanium alloy armor!
“Please be careful! The armor is damaged and oxygen is leaking! The estimated support time is three minutes!”
After Duan Ming finally regained his balance, the alarm sound of the armor system made him frown deeply.
The second explosion caused random changes in the orientation of the core area of the mining area. Duan Ming couldn’t tell which direction to leave from. The Reaper battleship was outside to respond.
Duan Ming now has only one choice. Use the remaining three minutes of oxygen to find Bai Xianglu and the others as much as possible. Maybe everyone can survive together. Otherwise, each other’s chances of death will increase infinitely as time goes by.
A minute passed, and Duan Ming could already feel that the oxygen had become thinner, and the second explosion made the flames in the core area of the mining area a little more intense.
After another minute, Duan Ming’s brain was already a little blurry due to lack of oxygen. He understood that his life was about to come to an end.
Due to lack of oxygen, Duan Ming had lost the ability to move. He slowly closed his eyes. In his mind, many people’s faces and their voices flashed through his mind.
…
“Duan Ming, do you think our child will be a boy or a girl?”
Tang Yaqing was sitting alone in the room, with obvious tears on her face. She was stroking her slightly bulging belly, and in front of her was Duan Ming’s cold photo.
“Boss, don’t worry, I will definitely carry out your last wish and let the family stand at the highest point in the entire universe!”
Wu Yong was sitting in a wheelchair, looking up into space, as if he was paying homage to himself.
The images in his mind flashed faster and faster until Duan Ming vaguely heard a cry.
…
“Duan Ming! Talk! Where are you?”
Duan Ming recognized that this was Bai Xianglu’s anxious voice. He forced out a smile and murmured to himself.
“It seems that I still failed to save you! But it’s okay. I owe you what I owe you. I’ll pay you back after we go to heaven together.”
“Duan Ming! What nonsense! We are not dead yet! Where are you!”
Hearing these words, Duan Ming was startled, and his consciousness that was about to lose became sober.
The voice of Bai Xianglu just now came from a voice call! I’m not dead yet! She’s not dead either!
The reason why Bai Xianglu was able to get in touch with Duan Ming was also due to the fact that Duan Ming had been making voice calls to Bai Xianglu. When Bai Xianglu learned that Duan Ming had entered the core area of the mining area alone, she entered again regardless of her own safety. After passing through the surrounding fire, her voice call request rang.
But now Duan Ming’s oxygen level has reached the critical point, and he can only answer with a weak voice.
“Come on, I’ll rest for a while and I’ll go out later.”
From Duan Ming’s answer, Bai Xianglu also analyzed that Duan Ming’s situation must be extremely dangerous at this time, and from her tone, she faintly felt that Duan Ming was about to give up!
But how could she find Duan Ming in this unclear fire?
Stopping where she was, Bai Xianglu slowly lowered her head.
“Duan Ming, let me ask you, have you ever liked me?”
This sentence once again brought Duan Ming back to his disappearing consciousness. He wanted to say “like”, but when the words came to his mouth, it was not the case.
“I’m so sentimental! I, Duan Ming, will only love Yaqing in this life, so give up!”
The reason why Duan Ming wants to say something different is because he understands that if he admits that he likes her, Bai Xianglu will ignore her own safety and search for her frantically in this desperate place. All he can do is to speak as unfeelingly as possible in order to win. Bai Xianglu was able to turn around and leave.
After the call was silent for a few seconds, Bai Xianglu’s firm voice sounded again.
“It doesn’t matter, Duan Ming, I like you, that’s enough. Since you can’t tell where you are, then I’ll make a bet with God. The bet is… my life and yours!”
After finishing her words, Bai Xianglu closed her eyes, her body slowly started to turn, and then suddenly stopped. She looked in the direction she was facing, took a deep breath, and flew away.
Tang Yaqing on the Fire Rock Beast was in tears at this time. She was not jealous of Duan Ming who risked his life for Bai Xianglu, but she was proud of the man she loved!
But after this pride, is it joy or sadness?
The oxygen in Duan Ming’s titanium alloy armor had returned to zero. He used up his last strength, spread his arms, and lay flat in the space. His face was full of relief and slight reluctance.
Finally, Duan Ming fell asleep.
On Bai Xianglu’s side, she kept calling Duan Ming’s name, but there was no answer. Tears streaked down her cheeks, but her speed did not slow down at all.
Ten seconds later, Bai Xianglu’s body paused. A hundred meters directly in front of her, there was a floating object similar to the shape of a human body. Her sixth sense told her that God’s eyes were open!
Flashing to Duan Ming’s side, Bai Xianglu roughly checked Duan Ming’s condition. Due to the extreme lack of oxygen, Duan Ming’s body was already a little stiff. Even if she took Duan Ming away as quickly as possible, he might not be able to make it back. Death battleship.
After looking at her well-sealed tri-titanium alloy armor, Bai Xianglu made a gamble-like decision!
She clenched her fists and straightened her body. A piece of metal ore the size of a fist came flying towards her, grazing her arm and flying past.
“Please be careful! The armor is damaged and oxygen is leaking! The estimated support time is two minutes!”
The loopholes in Bai Xianglu’s armor were much larger than Duan Ming’s before. The purpose of her doing this was to share her oxygen with Duan Ming!
After connecting the two people’s armor leaks together, Bai Xianglu supported Duan Ming’s body and flew in the direction she came from. In the process, she tried to keep her breathing as steady as possible to save some oxygen for the two of them.
The oxygen was supplied again, Duan Ming gasped suddenly and opened his eyes again.
When he discovered that Bai Xianglu used this method to provide himself with oxygen, he was shocked.
“Xianglu, this method won’t work! Be obedient, put me down, and leave quickly.”
Bai Xianglu just glanced at Duan Ming and replied softly: “If you say less, maybe we can live a few more seconds!”
Although these words were unpleasant to hear, a smile appeared on Duan Ming’s face just because he saw Bai Xianglu’s eyes that were already red from crying.
Just when the two were less than a hundred meters away from the fire outside the mining area, the third explosion occurred deep in the mining area!
