Chapter 608 Reunion in Despair and a Glimmer of Hope
The escape pod shook violently in the energy storm, and Ellie and Xiao Wang's hearts clenched with each jolt. Ignoring their own safety, their eyes were fixed on the massive energy vortex created by the impact, inside which lay Lin Yu and the wrecked spaceship.
“Lin Yu…” Ellie murmured to herself, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably, her voice filled with despair and worry. Xiao Wang gritted his teeth, his hands clenched into fists, trying to calm himself down: “Ellie, Lin Yu will be alright, we have to find him first.”
They activated the escape pod's search device, struggling to find Lin Yu's trail amidst the chaotic energy field. The remnants of the dark organization spotted them; several small aircraft quickly surrounded them, their weapons aimed at the escape pod.
"Damn it, these guys still won't let us go!" Xiao Wang cursed angrily, while quickly operating the makeshift defense system of the escape pod. Although the escape pod's firepower was far inferior to the enemy's, Xiao Wang's superb operating skills allowed him to temporarily withstand the enemy's attack.
While keeping an eye on the battlefield, Ellie was also intently operating the search equipment. Suddenly, the equipment emitted a rapid beeping sound. "Found him! Lin Yu's life signal is on a small planet in the core area. He's still alive!" Ellie exclaimed in surprise.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Wang's spirits lifted: "Alright, let's charge!" He suddenly increased the power of the escape pod, and with its agile maneuverability, it charged left and right through the enemy's encirclement, finally shaking off the pursuit of the dark organization and flying towards the signal source.
When they landed on the small planet, all was deathly silent. Huge rocks were scattered everywhere, and the planet's surface was riddled with craters. They quickly exited the escape pod, calling out Lin Yu's name and searching for him.
"Lin Yu, where are you?" Ellie's voice, choked with sobs, echoed across the empty planet. Just when they were almost in despair, a faint reply came from behind a boulder not far away: "I...I'm here..."
The two rushed over and found Lin Yu covered in wounds, leaning weakly against a boulder. His clothes were torn, and he had multiple abrasions and burns, but his eyes still shone with determination.
"Lin Yu, you're alive! That's wonderful!" Ellie rushed to Lin Yu's side, bursting into tears of joy. Xiao Wang also excitedly patted Lin Yu's shoulder: "You're really tough!"
Lin Yu forced a smile: "I knew you would find me. There's no time to rest now, we need to find the place where the mysterious energy is sealed as soon as possible."
At Lin Yu's insistence, the three began searching the planet. They discovered that the planet seemed to be composed of a special kind of energy ore, which emitted a faint glow and resonated with some kind of mysterious energy.
As they explored further, they discovered an ancient building at the center of the planet. The building's doors were tightly shut and covered with strange symbols, similar to those on the three keys they had found earlier.
"It seems this is the key," Lin Yu said, taking out three keys and trying to find the insertion point corresponding to the symbol on the gate. Just as they were focused on their research, the leader of the dark organization arrived with a squad of elite soldiers.
"Do you think you can escape? Hand over the key, this is your last chance!" the leader said menacingly, weapon in hand. Lin Yu and the others immediately stood up, shielding the key behind their backs.
"If you want the key, come and get it if you can!" Lin Yu replied fearlessly. The two sides were once again locked in a standoff, the atmosphere tense and fraught with danger. Lin Yu knew their situation was dire; their injured bodies and limited weapons made them no match for the enemy. But to seal the mysterious energy and protect cosmic peace, they had no way out.
Suddenly, Ellie noticed that the symbols on the gate changed their flashing frequency as the three approached. She observed carefully and seemed to have found a clue to opening the gate. But under the threat of the enemy, could they successfully unlock the gate's secrets and enter the building to seal its mysterious energy?
