Chapter 2541: None of Us Have Many More Years Left, Anyway
Ning Shu didn’t want this conversation to ultimately fail. She immediately cheered up the atmosphere by saying, “My younger brother is still too young and says whatever pops into his head. Owen, please forgive him. None of us have many more years left, anyway, right?”
Owen: …
“Don’t be angry, Brother. Just hear Alviss out first,” Vivian commented.
Alviss cleared his throat. Owen’s expression seemed a little irritated as he said, “Tell me, then. What happens if those people destroy our planet in retaliation?”
Alviss tapped his wheelchair with his pale fingers. He shook his head and said, “It’s unlikely.
“Sehlde is now used as their garbage dumping place. As long as they haven’t found a suitable place to replace Sehlde, they won’t destroy this planet. The farthest that they’ll go is killing some of our people.
“Sehlde is packed full of their garbage. If this planet is destroyed, the garbage on this planet will float into the interstellar system and become cosmic garbage. It’ll affect the travel of every spacecraft.”
Everyone in the tent was taken aback by what Alviss said.
Owen stared at Alviss. “How do you know that?”
“I spent a lot of time alone, thinking. There are still spaceships dumping garbage in Sehlde even up until recently. This shows that Sehlde still has a use for other planets. They will not dare destroy Sehlde.”
Ning Shu wanted to applaud Alviss. His ability to brainwash other people was amazing.
He spewed such nonsense with a completely straight face.
Even if those people destroyed this planet and escaped afterward, no one would care.
If the garbage in Planet Sehlde became cosmic garbage, it could still be cleaned up. It depended only on whether the people of the interstellar union were willing to spend money on this matter.
After all, endless garbage in the interstellar system would be a real headache to them. If a flying spacecraft hit some garbage or cosmic dust, it might cause serious problems for the spacecraft.
Having to carry out an interstellar rescue mission would be a major pain in the neck for them.
Vivian stared at Alviss with admiration in her eyes. She said, “Brother, I think what Alviss said makes a lot of sense.”
Vivian was standing in front of Owen, and he pushed her away. He said, “Go away.”
His little sister would think that anything Alviss said was right.
Owen thought for a while, then said, “I will gather the manpower.”
He discussed the finer details with Alviss and then prepared to leave.
“Let’s go.”
Owen grabbed Vivian and dragged her away.
Ning Shu poured a bowl of water for Alviss and gave him a thumbs up. “You’re awesome. Here, drink some water.”
He usually kept to himself silently. However, at a critical time, he could act with the demeanor of a mighty general.
Owen gathered some people, including Mach. When Mach saw Ning Shu, he raised his chin and gave her a cold snort.
Ning Shu didn’t bother talking to the brat. She stood on a garbage mountain and watched what was happening around the spaceship.
Many people were still going to the spaceship to test their mental strength. Likewise, many people were eliminated.
Ning Shu even saw some people falling out from the spaceship as if they were forcibly thrown out by someone.
The spaceship was suspended in the air at a certain height. If someone was thrown down from such a height, they’d die, especially if there was some sharp garbage on the spot on which they fell.
After Owen gathered some people, they got busy. Ning Shu also occasionally helped them.
Seeing that their trap was almost set, Ning Shu prepared herself for her mental strength test.
“Be careful,” Vivian told her before she went.
Ning Shu smiled and said, “I’ll be alright.”
Ning Shu then told Owen, “Don’t let anyone hear of our plan.”
Owen said coldly, “Don’t tell me what to do.”
Fine. He was the boss.
Lastly, Ning Shu instructed Alviss. She said, “Watch out for yourself. I’m leaving now. There’s some food in the pot for you.”
Alviss nodded.
Ning Shu went towards the spaceship. She’d thought that it’d be much closer than it truly was.
