Chapter 1010: Bohemia's Higher Consciousness Training

"There's... there's no need for that."

Lyanna forced herself to keep staring at the floor, standing stiffly to the side, and whispered, "We're all companions, we'll definitely take good care of him..."

Bohemia patted her shoulder forcefully. "Yes, I believe you. But that's Puppeteer's order, and he's also your companion. You should understand."

Beside them, Lin Sanjiu and Luther gently placed Puppeteer back into the medical pod. Arianne stood pale-faced at the door, looking as if she had seen a ghost during the day. She had kept her distance and hadn't even had a clear view of the drool bib. If it weren't for the others distrusting her and keeping an eye on her wherever she went, she probably wouldn't have seen this scene at all.

"Look at how pale his skin is," Lin Sanjiu leaned over the edge of the medical pod, looking tenderly at the man inside. "He'll definitely recover quickly..."

For some reason, she seemed to be the most affected.

"Who knows what kind of person he'll become in the future," Luther tilted his head, smiling. As the only man present, he took on the role of the missing male character. "What will he like? What will he want to do?"

Lyanna, full of anxiety, let out a snort from her nose and still didn't dare to turn around.

"As long as he's happy, it's all good," Lin Sanjiu carefully brushed aside Puppeteer's hair, tucking it behind his ear. "Bohemia, go find a pillow to prop him up. Be extra careful with his head."

"Careful my a.s.s," Bohemia waved her hand impatiently. "We should leave now. The fleet of the Night Wanderers should be arriving soon, right?"

At that moment, Lin Sanjiu changed her mind. According to her, leaving Puppeteer alone here would be "too irresponsible," especially with the impending battle. She had to keep him close for her peace of mind. With time running out, she insisted, and the group hurriedly opened the airlock and maneuvered Exodus out of the Hold. They parked it right next to the entrance of the airlock.

It wasn't difficult to create a layer of corroded and weathered illusion on the outside of Exodus using [The Power of Word Picture]. After all, on this barren, gray-white alien planet, there was no shortage of debris and raw materials.

"Prepare your long-range attack methods, put on your armor. We may need to charge out at any moment."

Lin Sanjiu, now freed from her motherly demeanor, became serious again and gave instructions to the group. They were all gathered at the entrance of Exodus, quietly waiting for the Night Wanderers' s.h.i.+ps to land on the surface outside. "Arianne, what kind of s.h.i.+p carries the fuel? What are its characteristics? You should be familiar with them, right?"

Arianne nodded.

"Good, keep a close watch. Once we capture the Night Wanderers' s.h.i.+p, we'll need you to point out the one carrying the fuel."

After Puppeteer, who had been suppressing her, fell asleep, Arianne didn't try to resist or escape. Abandoned by the organization she had served as a discarded p.a.w.n and stranded alone on an alien planet, she had nowhere to go even if she wanted to run. But they couldn't fully trust her either. After Lin Sanjiu told her, "Don't leave my sight later," she urged Bohemia, "Why aren't you practicing your Higher Consciousness?"

Bohemia wished she could scratch her face.

But complaints aside, she obediently turned and left. Over the next few minutes, she walked back and forth inside Exodus like a dog looking for a place to relieve itself. Lin Sanjiu shouted a few times from the corridor, but Bohemia finally got angry, "You have no imagination! [A garden of intersecting paths] has high environmental requirements! Instead of circling around me like a fly, why don't you check their weapons and abilities?"

"I've checked," came Lin Sanjiu's unaffected voice from a distance. "What kind of environment do you want?"

"I said, I want to communicate with the higher spiritual level of the universe through my own spiritual nature, so I need a..." Bohemia paused and her voice gradually weakened. She suddenly realized something, took a deep breath, and hastily rushed back to where everyone was gathered, pounding on the door. "Silas! Open the door!"

"Don't open it!"

Lin Sanjiu grabbed her loose-fitting robe and became anxious. "There's no oxygen outside. Why are you going out? Can't you stop practicing?"

"You have no imagination," Bohemia was excited, her face flushed, and her breathing became rapid. "I don't need oxygen. Let go of me!"

"Are you a corpse?"

"Your mom is a corpse! Let me out!"

With a doubtful expression on her face, Lin Sanjiu hesitated for a moment but ultimately let Silas open the door. After all, Bohemia was a former powerful Twelve Worlds character who knew how to protect herself. Even if Lin Sanjiu was willing to believe her judgment, she still cautioned, "Once you see the s.h.i.+ps, come back immediately!"

"Quit talking nonsense!"

Bohemia threw those words back and pulled up her loose robe, covering her head and face as she hurriedly rushed out.

If you want to communicate with the "higher levels of divinity in the universe," is there a better place than being directly exposed to s.p.a.ce? Lin Sanjiu watched Bohemia's gradually receding figure from the porthole, sighing with some anxiety. She remembered that Bohemia's robe seemed to be a protective item that could withstand the pressure of the alien environment for a while. She watched as the small figure finally found a suitable place to sit down and withdrew her gaze.

After making all the necessary preparations for battle, the pitch-black sky outside the porthole gradually lit up with dots of light. The engines of various s.p.a.cecraft became brighter and closer, their wind stirring up a faint tremor and hitting the hull of Exodus.

They were coming soon.

Lin Sanjiu swallowed nervously.

It was her first time engaging in surface combat on an alien planet, but at least she could rely on her dependable companions to watch her back...

With that in mind, she glanced outsidethe small figure representing Bohemia was indeed rus.h.i.+ng back towards Exodus, seemingly unharmed.

As she approached, Lin Sanjiu instructed Silas to open the door for her in time. Bohemia plunged into the s.p.a.cecraft, her face flushed and gasping for breath, then plopped down on the floor.

"The Great Deluge," she exclaimed, panting heavily, "I saw the Great Deluge!"
