Interstellar: Conquering Crazy Commanders with Food

Chapter 80
Claire immediately stood up and ran towards the place where the ship was sliding, shouting, "Cassius!"

She ran wildly to the edge of the cliff, saw the man running wildly in the fallen cabin, and then jumped out, Claire rushed over and grabbed him without thinking.

She grabbed that hand, but her whole body hit hard on the stone floor, and the pain from her chest made her almost unable to recover from her breath.

Although he successfully grabbed Cassius's hand, Claire was dragged down by him because of her too thin body before she could be happy for two seconds.

Both of them fell.

Cassius quickly pulled her to her chest, his fingers tightly grasping her waist, and the mechanical arm of his right hand resolutely plunged into the steep cliff next to her.

After he grabbed the cliff for a distance of about ten meters, the two finally stopped falling and hung above the sky.

The artificial skin of the mechanical arm was directly cracked and damaged due to the huge friction with the stone crevices, exposing the metal knuckles inside.

Claire's legs were tightly wrapped around Cassius' waist, and as soon as he turned his head, he saw that his mechanical arm that was grabbing the cliff with his bare hands was damaged.

Even though she knew he wouldn't be in pain, the way the skin peeled off to reveal the mechanical skeleton still made her twitch hard.

Cassius lifted her up with one hand, and asked in a deep voice, "Why did you jump down just now?"

"I didn't hold you back, and I can't survive if you die alone." Claire replied in a low voice, her chest is still aching, and the blow just now was really hard for her.

Cassius looked at the torrent below, the fallen ship was straddling the river, broken to pieces, leaving only a little skeleton.

At this time, the big bird that passed over Claire's head circled and flew back. From a close distance, one could see that the beak was shiny and black, about half a meter long, half-opened to reveal the sharp teeth inside.

It flew around the two people hanging in the sky twice, and Claire felt that the bird should be thinking about how to eat them, but it didn't attack after waiting for a while.

"How do we get down?" She hugged Cassius' neck, glanced down a few times, her heart beating wildly.

It's really too high, she has never been so dangerous in her life, no less than the situation of falling when she crossed for the first time.

"Can you swim?" He whispered in her ear.

"Yes, but I haven't swam for four years." Claire herself was a little unsure if this skill was reliable, but she quickly realized, "Are we going to jump?"

"Do you have a better way?" Cassius asked back.

"No, let's jump down, I'll try my best to float up." Claire took a deep breath, and then let out most of her breath because of the pain in her chest.

Her words made Cassius chuckle, and the tense atmosphere eased a little.

"Take off my oxygen mask."

His mask was also cracked and damaged, Claire took off his mask as promised, and only heard a pop, the sound of oxygen leaking out of the helmet.

She took off her own, and threw the two helmets out together.

Claire sniffed the air, and there was an earthy aroma of the jungle after the rain, which was very refreshing.

"Get Claire ready." Cassius reminded her aloud.

Claire changed her posture, put the feet wrapped around his waist down and straightened her insteps to ensure that the damage can be minimized when entering the water.

"Ready." She took a deep breath.

Cassius' mechanical arm suddenly let go, and the two fell straight down again.

The moment Claire entered the water, the powerful impact separated the two of them.

The underwater world is simply terrifying.

Below the torrent, countless waves rolled in. As soon as she raised her head and wanted to get out of the water, a wave hit her and submerged her, and she had no chance to show her head.

Claire tried her best to keep calm, trying to find her balance in the water, but she was forced to be pushed all the way downstream by the current.

The oxygen in the lungs became thinner and thinner, and the blockage in the throat became heavier and heavier. Claire couldn't help but want to open his mouth to breathe, but what was poured into his mouth was only a large amount of water full of sand.

Just as her strength was almost exhausted and a surge of despair surged, her back slammed into a metal plate.

Realizing that it was being washed to the wreckage, Claire tried her last breath and groped along the steel plate to find a point of support.

As soon as she tried to move up with her hands, the whole steel plate fell down a little without giving face.

Losing the chance to breathe again, Claire finally despaired in her heart, she had reached her limit.

At this moment, a hand suddenly covered her waist and pushed her up. Claire struggled again with her survival instincts, her arms exerted force again, and finally rolled and climbed onto the fallen ship wreckage.

The moment she came up, Claire spit out a mouthful of yellow water mixed with sand, and there was a sharp pain in her throat as particles rubbed against her throat, but she didn't have time to pay attention to the pain, and immediately turned around and grabbed the arm that was about to sink.

"Cassius." Her voice was hoarse.

Claire's arms were tense, and her chest was in pain. After clenching her teeth and letting out a rapid growl, she successfully pulled half of Cassius' body up.

"Cassius!"

She knelt beside him and saw the bloody wounds on his back.

"What." Claire stared fiercely, he had been injured a long time ago, but she didn't notice it at all.

"Cassius." She bent down and patted his face. Seeing that he didn't respond, she touched under his nose with trembling fingers.

The slightly warm breath hit her fingertips, and Claire's raised heart slammed down.

Fortunately, he just fainted, he is still alive.

On a strange planet and extreme environment, plus a seriously injured man, Claire went blank for a few seconds, then got up and took off the protective clothing that was already filled with sand, and helped Cassius put him The damaged clothes on his body were taken off.

She knew she had to do something to keep the two of them alive.

During the second wave of impact just now, Cassius hugged her and hit the back of the console with his back. At that moment, a lot of glass in the window was broken, and it turned out that it was all stuck on his body.

Claire carefully tore off the shirt on his back, with worried eyes, the wound inside was rolled up, and the blood was still mixed with a lot of sand.

If you can't help him deal with it in time, it will inevitably lead to infection later.

Claire looked around, and there was only one frame of the ship scattered all over the place, and a big opening was broken in some places, and the torrent rolled underneath, and sand was washed up from time to time.

Cautiously avoiding places where she would walk off the ground, she found a first-aid kit and a pistol in an undamaged cabinet.
