"Shut down all electronic devices and make no noise!" Zhong Li Feiyu's voice said a moment later.
Lu Wanqing gasped, then quickly asked, "The live stream and communication..."
"Turn off the recording sphere and the optical computer. Unless they find us, don't turn on any electronic devices!" Zhong Li Feiyu said sternly.
Without the live stream and communication, wouldn't it just be her and Xiao Yi here?
Lu Wanqing's heart pounded, but thinking of the swarm of insectoids outside, a dark mass that could also discharge electricity, it seemed like turning on electronic devices was indeed not a good idea.
Lu Wanqing hesitated for only a second before raising her hand to turn off the recording sphere used for the live stream, as well as her and Xiao Yi's optical computers. Everything had to be turned off!
"Xiao Yi, quickly turn off the optical computer and shut down all electronic devices on your body!" Lu Wanqing quickly turned to say to Xiao Yi.
"Okay." Xiao Yi immediately agreed.
The mother and son quickly turned off their optical computers.
After turning off the optical computers and completing all these tasks, Lu Wanqing found her hands still trembling violently.
The insectoids outside looked so terrifying. Could she and Xiao Yi really survive this?
Just then, the small panda mecha beside her suddenly placed a hand on her.
"Mommy, don't be afraid," Xiao Yi's voice came from inside the mecha.
Lu Wanqing's heart pounded. Realizing what was happening, she quickly pulled Xiao Yi closer and then turned to look outside.
She blocked the cave entrance, but there were still gaps. Lu Wanqing peered through the gaps to observe the situation outside, and Xiao Yi also crouched below, observing through the lower gaps.
The entire sky had turned dark, a vast expanse of black. The terrifying insectoids had already flown into their area. The sky outside was densely packed with those creatures. Because they were so close, Lu Wanqing could even make out their appearances.
Giant bodies, and at the very front, a super long nose resembling a double-edged saw!
Lu Wanqing had seen these creatures before. Weren't these the world's critically endangered protected animals she had seen at the aquarium with her brother when she was a child – sawfish?
She tried to calm herself down and thought, she seemed to remember her brother telling her that out of the five species of sawfish, three were listed as critically endangered by the IUCN Red List. As for the reasons for the sawfish's extinction, it seemed to be due to overfishing and consumption by humans. In other words, in the ancient Earth era, this creature was truly hunted to the brink of extinction by humans and then listed as a protected animal!
Also, sawfish seemed to live in water? Whether freshwater or saltwater, they were aquatic, right?
After three thousand years, not only had Baozi escaped the danger of extinction, but they could also fly?
The more Lu Wanqing thought about it, the more astonished she became. Peering through the gaps at the sawfish flying in the sky outside, she found it incredible!
However, she quickly thought of humans. After thousands of years, many humans no longer looked like they did with two arms and two legs. Many people's genes had mutated. Apart from the top-tier nobles, the lower-class commoners were often bizarre-looking. Growing an extra hand, an extra leg, or even an extra tail was not strange at all.
If humans mutated, then it wasn't a problem for animals to mutate, right?
Still, aquatic creatures becoming aerial ones was quite shocking. But despite the shock, the familiar "greatsword" of the sawfish and their ability to discharge electricity had remained unchanged for over three thousand years!
She just wondered what they tasted like...
After more than three thousand years, the sawfish, once hunted to become critically endangered protected animals, seemed to be available again now?
The vast expanse outside, with each one being super huge, seven or eight meters long, there should be plenty, right?
The interstellar people called them insectoids and were very afraid. So, were sawfish considered terrifying insectoids in the interstellar era?
Then, could she catch a few to eat?
However, Lu Wanqing only considered this thought for a moment before quickly abandoning it. With such large creatures, one swing of their saw-like nose would turn her and Xiao Yi into two halves. They should focus on survival rather than thinking about eating!
Lu Wanqing mentally recited Buddhist scriptures, trying to calm herself down. She shouldn't think about things she shouldn't. Her and Xiao Yi's priority now was to survive, to strive for survival!
As Lu Wanqing pondered, she suddenly felt hungry. They had been busy all afternoon, finally finishing the lounge chair and two large plates of crayfish. They were about to start eating when this incident occurred.
Lu Wanqing hesitated for a moment, then opened her spatial button, took out two nutrient solutions, kept one for herself, and handed the other to Xiao Yi.
Lu Wanqing didn't speak, but when Xiao Yi received the nutrient solution, he understood his mother's intention – eat until full!
After Lu Wanqing ate the nutrient solution, the faint emptiness in her stomach disappeared, and she felt comfortable.
After eating, Lu Wanqing again peered through the gap. She discovered that the large swarm of sawfish outside had disappeared. The sky had returned to clarity, and even the deafening thunder in the sky was gradually receding. It seemed... the sawfish had flown away.
So, that swarm of sawfish had just passed by?
Lu Wanqing couldn't quite describe how she felt. Her heart was pounding in her chest, and her emotions were in turmoil. There was also a sense of having survived a disaster.
Although she now knew they were sawfish and recalled the information about sawfish being hunted to become protected animals in the ancient Earth era, she had never eaten such creatures before. And the terrifying oppressive and dangerous feeling when that large swarm of sawfish flew by outside was something she still couldn't forget.
She didn't even dare to take Xiao Yi outside. Even if the sawfish might have flown far away, as long as she thought about the existence of such terrifying creatures on this planet, and that they could return at any time, if they found her and Xiao Yi, she and her child might be doomed. She dared not move!
The optical computer was still on her wrist, and the recording sphere was also stored in her spatial button. She and Xiao Yi were still inside the mecha.
Should she turn on the optical computer to contact Zhong Li Feiyu?
Lu Wanqing didn't dare to try. She was afraid the sawfish hadn't flown far and might come back.
Sawfish could discharge electricity, and Zhong Li Feiyu had specifically emphasized not to turn on electronic devices, so she couldn't!
Time passed slowly. The sky outside darkened. Lu Wanqing felt stiff from sitting in the mecha. She wanted to move but didn't dare to make any large movements. Their hiding cave was small and not suitable for activity at all.
As for going out of the mecha?
Lu Wanqing thought for a while, but still didn't dare to speak. She couldn't go out. What if those sawfish hadn't gone far? If they suddenly returned, and she and Xiao Yi were outside the mecha, wouldn't that be extremely dangerous?
*
On this side, Lu Wanqing and little Zhong Li Yi were hiding in the cave.
On the other side, everyone who was desperately trying to find their direction and search for them grew anxious.
Outside, the entire interstellar population was also anxious!
A while ago, Lu Wanqing and Xiao Yi were in danger, but their lives were too leisurely. Coupled with Lu Wanqing's excellent wilderness survival skills, everyone unconsciously let down their guard. Not only were they not worried, but they also envied their leisurely and happy life on the insectoid planet.
But now, the sudden appearance of terrifying insectoids changed everyone's expression. When Lu Wanqing was forced to turn off her live stream and even shut down her optical computer, losing all contact with the outside world, everyone suddenly realized that it was an insectoid planet, super dangerous!!!
