Star Abyss (2024)

and Television Bureau]

Stargate Dispatch Station,

this is MRS Star Seeker

calling 024.

We're preparing

to enter the stargate route.

MRS Star Seeker, you're on the radar.

Orbital data received.

Permission to plan a rendezvous granted.

In the future, humans

have invented the stargate system.

By warping with artificial wormholes,

ships can pass through stargates,

traversing dozens of light-years

to reach distant exoplanets instantly.

Stargate Dispatch Station,

orbital data sent. Requesting approach.

Course 0722.

MRS Star Seeker.

MRS Star Seeker,

you're clear to approach.

With the frequent use of stargates,

humans began to have a rare accident

in which a miscalculation occurs

when a ship passes through a stargate,

leaving it trapped

in the distorted space beyond.

It is called

the Stargate Abyss.

[Stargate Abyss]

These spaceships could be trapped

for years, even decades.

Rescue is impossible.

And there are no survivors.

Since people discovered the existence

of the Stargate Abyss,

to prevent accidents from happening,

many spaceships

are equipped with hibernation pods.

In case the spaceship is trapped,

crew members

can enter a hibernation state

until the spaceship is freed.

But not all spaceships are willing

to equip expensive hibernation pods

according to the number of passengers.

To save money, some people

always leave things to chance,

thinking

they can beat the odds and fate.

MRS Star Seeker is merely a cargo ship.

But the greedy captain

has illegally carried passengers

far exceeding the approved number.

Now, we are trapped

in the Stargate Abyss

with only four hibernation pods aboard.

And what's worse,

we are not alone

on the ship.

The monster has caught up again.

Keep running.

Duo, go.

This is the airlock chamber.

Outside is the space.

We're cornered.

I will manually initiate

the depressurization procedure

so the door can only be opened

from the inside.

And you'll be safe.

What about you?

Wait until it's quiet outside

before you come out.

Listen, go find Gia.

If you're injured,

this can save your life.

But you're already injured.

Take it and keep it safe.

This is from your parents.

They will protect you.

Go!

Please be safe!

Duo,

there's something I have to tell you.

I am responsible for the deaths

of 80,000 people in Sailor Valley,

including your parents.

I'm sorry.

Come on!

[24 hours ago]

[MRS Star Seeker, a cargo ship]

[Gia, Navigator of MRS Star Seeker]

MRS Star Seeker,

this is the Stargate Dispatch Station.

Why hasn't your cargo list

been declared?

If you don't declare it quickly,

your flight permission will be revoked.

What contraband have you people

smuggled this time?

Don't drag me down into this.

What do you mean, 'you people'?

You're giving me too much credit.

[Captain of MRS Star Seeker]

Only the captain knows

what cargo is on the ship.

What are you waiting for?

Hurry up and figure something out.

If there's a problem with the cargo,

don't even think about getting paid.

Now you think of me.

We need to have a good talk

about that bonus.

Gia,

how much longer do we need to line up?

Thirty minutes.

You need to hurry.

Otherwise, our spot will be taken.

Those unauthorized passengers

in the cargo hold

were all brought by you, right?

Some people were looking for a bargain,

but some others...

Besides,

that container...

You know.

Of course I know.

Let's talk outside.

This time

we have to split it fifty-fifty, right?

You ungrateful brat.

I've taken care of everything.

I have connections

at the dispatch station.

This much?

They might as well just rob us.

Don't play dumb.

Even though it's always you

who takes the big part,

that's my money too.

Don't deny it.

Remember.

You're the one who damaged

the shield of Sailor Valley.

Aside from me,

who else would dare hire you,

a wanted criminal?

You know I've been wronged.

Is it fun to keep bringing that up?

Go check on the people

in the cargo hold.

There's a guy named Xing Tian

who's acting strange.

Xing Tian?

Which Xing Tian?

Why didn't you say it earlier?

Gemini?

Qin.

Stay sharp.

Take a look at what's inside.

Alright.

Gemini,

it's me.

That's weird.

Why did they spend so much money

to transport an empty container?

What the heck?

Captain, help!

Captain!

Don't leave me!

Lu Ming.

Xing Tian?

It really is you.

[Xing Tian, Special Agent

of Interstellar Investigation Bureau/IIB]

[Lu Ming's ex-comrade.]

You know I'm innocent.

Why are you still after me?

I'm merely a special agent.

Your innocence is for the law to decide.

So many civilians have died.

If you truly believe yourself

to be innocent,

come back with me to prove it.

Do you think I wanted to k*ll them?

I wanted to save them.

I didn't want to crash into that shield.

I didn't come for you this time.

There are people more dangerous

than you on board.

Just remain a fugitive for now.

I know.

[Gemini, clone assassins wanted by IIB, ]

[planning to smuggle

into an extraterrestrial colony.]

I warned you.

But you wouldn't listen.

Now no one can save him.

What was that thing?

A genetically engineered

fighting monster.

It's invaluable.

That's ill*gal.

Of course, it's ill*gal.

Otherwise, what would we need you for?

It has run wild.

The flight route has been adjusted now.

I am not extorting you.

You might go without food or drink,

but you can't stop breathing, right?

Don't forget,

this is a cargo ship.

We have to buy extra oxygen supplies

from the black market.

Hey.

Didn't we agree on this earlier?

You can't charge us twice.

Then get off the ship.

Hey, what's with the attitude?

[Chen Mo, Special Service Chief of IIB, ]

Are you with Xing Tian?

[Xing Tian's assistant in this operation.]

We're not here to capture you.

I'd advise you

to mind your own business.

Have you ever traveled

through a stargate?

Do you know what'll happen?

Remember,

on this ship,

I call the shots.

I know it's your first time

traveling through a stargate.

So listen carefully.

To ensure everyone's safety

during the traversal,

if I say that coal is white, not black,

you just nod.

Don't think.

Do you understand?

Tell Xing Tian

that I am responsible

for everyone's safety.

If you want to capture those two women,

don't do it on my ship.

Sir,

are we in trouble?

Here, take this.

My parents told me

that if there's trouble,

it can help us.

How do you have this?

Duo,

this is what your parents left you.

You can't give it to someone else.

When Sailor Valley had that disaster,

her family

all died.

I adopted her.

Now, I want to take her to a new world.

We can start over there.

It doesn't feel good, does it?

Just a reminder.

This feeling

is called a guilty conscience.

Do you know that little girl's parents?

Did you see that badge?

Her parents and the others died

all because you crashed into the shield.

You owe them for the rest of your life.

List of the top ten most wanted.

Number one: Gemini.

Reward amount...

You dare to take on the job

of smuggling these rogues?

Shut up. Just go.

Collision warning.

Estimated collision in 120 seconds.

Star Seeker,

you're dawdling too much.

Hurry up and clear the route.

Pioneer is trying to cut in line.

[Estimated collision point]

Lu Ming,

we can't slow down.

We're next.

Warning: ill*gal operation.

Gia, turn it off.

Don't get me in trouble.

Or my license will be revoked.

ill*gal operation.

Turn off the warning.

Warning: ill*gal operation.

Warn...

Switch to manual operation.

Lu Ming,

if we lose, we're both done for.

Remember, I've never lost in space.

That's true.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have taken you in.

Are you really sure?

Forget the data.

There are only two outcomes

for such a thing: success or failure.

I've been flying in space

for so many years.

No one can cut in my line.

Attention, all passengers.

The spaceship is about

to enter the stargate route.

Acceleration will commence shortly.

Hey.

Don't be nervous.

Hold on tight

and take a deep breath.

Star Seeker,

if you don't stop the ship,

we're going to crash into you.

The collision probability is 38%.

42%.

We must slow down.

How much acceleration

can this old ship of yours take?

She's as tough as I am.

Stop!

Slow down now!

This ship is falling apart.

Don't be afraid!

Although this ship

is older than your grandma,

she will hold up.

You must hold on.

Star Seeker.

Are you crazy?

If you don't slow down,

we'll really crash.

Don't worry.

They don't have the guts.

We've won.

We've won!

Hahaha!

We've won!

Eyes full of sadness

Tell me where you've been

Tell me what you've seen

In the open

Tell me where you've been

I have to try.

Below is the shield of Sailor Valley.

Attention, all passengers.

The spaceship is about

to go through the stargate.

Estimated traversal time: 20 minutes.

Attention, all passengers.

The spaceship is about

to go through the stargate.

Grandma, have you ever traveled

through a stargate?

No.

Kiss with a b*llet

The traversal begins.

Tell me what you've seen

In the open

Tell me where you've been

Tell me what you've seen

You are broken

Kiss with a b*llet

Once we pass through the stargate,

we'll be in a new world.

There, we can start anew.

Did you do it?

Tell me where you've been

Tell me what you've seen

In the open

Tell me where you've been

Tell me what you've seen

What on earth did you carry this time?

Was it worth taking such a big risk?

Some jobs are well-paid,

but some are best ignored.

Son,

you just don't understand.

What am I slaving away

on this ship for, huh?

I was born on Earth,

but I never said I want to die on Earth.

Got it?

Look.

Five more trips,

and you'll have enough money

to change your identity.

By then, you...

What happened?

Navigation system offline.

Control system offline.

Propulsion system offline.

AI offline.

Life support system offline.

Central computer down.

Captain.

Could it be...?

Impossible.

Stargate.

Abyss.

When we were jostling

for the route earlier,

we didn't have time to synchronize

the traversal program.

The originally set traversal time

was 30 minutes,

which is 1,800 seconds.

Now the traversal time

has become 220 million seconds,

which means

we'll be trapped for seven years.

Seven years?

We won't make it through.

The air and water on the ship

aren't enough for so many people

to last seven years.

There are also two stowaway assassins

in the cargo hold.

To survive,

they'll definitely k*ll all of us.

Xing Tian and his group

won't just sit by and wait for death.

By then, the cargo hold

will turn into a mess.

Come here quickly.

Come over here,

Duo.

No matter what,

we have to take out Gemini first.

They're more dangerous than you think.

Don't be impulsive.

Then you can stay.

Follow me closely in a moment.

This is a cargo ship.

The standard crew is four people,

with a maximum survival limit

of one year.

We now have 21 people on board.

That is to say,

we can only

last two months.

If it really comes to that,

I only ask you for one thing.

Make it quick for me.

I'm just unlucky.

I accept my fate.

But there's a little girl on the ship.

She...

If we want to survive,

there is one more bargaining chip.

[Hibernation Pods on MRS Star Seeker]

We still have four hibernation pods.

Then who gets the extra one?

No matter how you calculate it,

only four of us can live.

So we need to seize the initiative.

I'll take care of the people

in the cargo hold.

You can handle those two women.

Be careful.

You can't do this.

I know neither of you is a good person.

But can you at least act human?

Those two women

are not the biggest problem.

Do you know there's a bionic warrior

in the cargo hold?

He's here to catch Gemini.

All his men are armed.

It's the two of us

against their whole group.

We don't stand any chance.

I can release the air

inside the cargo hold.

A bionic warrior can survive

for 30 minutes in space.

That's enough time for him

to tear you to pieces three times.

You know him, right?

You must know him.

That way, the problem is solved.

I'll let him live.

As for the rest,

he can deal with them.

What gives you the right

to decide others' lives and deaths?

This is my ship.

You can't make any more mistakes.

At least let that little girl live.

I'll choose whoever

can ensure my survival.

Lu Ming,

you can't be soft-hearted now.

Even if we don't do it,

they will still k*ll each other.

Now

we just need to find the one

who can help us survive.

- Drop your weapon.

- Drop your weapon.

[Test result: Clones]

Don't sh**t.

We need to find out

what they've brought on board.

The ship is about to crash.

Eject now!

There's only one escape capsule.

Don't worry about me!

Let's go together.

I have to try.

Below is the shield of Sailor Valley.

If the ship collides with it,

a lot of people will die.

Have you thought it through?

There are only two outcomes:

success or failure.

Just do it!

If

You come as a savior on a ship

that is about to crash,

and you can save only one person.

Among the remaining three people,

the first is an injured soldier

who would survive with hospital care.

The second is a commander

with important intelligence.

And the third is a pilot

who has saved many lives.

How would you choose?

It's difficult, isn't it?

Because any choice is wrong.

I'm no saint.

I can't even

be considered a good person.

Since any choice is wrong,

I'll choose what I prefer.

This time,

I'll fight for equal opportunity

for everyone.

Gia.

Equal?

What's happened?

Someone tried to k*ll us.

What should we do?

Let me see.

I'm okay.

Everyone, calm down and listen.

Lu Ming.

Tell them.

We're trapped in the Stargate Abyss.

It will take seven years

for us to escape.

What should we do then?

Think of something.

What are you guys good for?

I knew this crappy ship

would have problems.

Yeah, think of something.

Let him finish.

You said before

that if I had abandoned the ship

a bit later,

things might have been different.

This time, let's see

if it will be different.

It's all your fault.

In the past,

everyone on the ships

trapped in the stargate disappeared

because they k*lled each other

in order to survive.

Now, on our ship,

there are also a pair of K*llers

who want to do the same to us.

But as long as we work together

and trust each other

to stop their plan,

we will find a way

to keep everyone alive.

If we release the monster

to k*ll the others

and then lower the oxygen level,

it should be enough

for the two of us to survive.

Something's not right.

Gia,

open the door quickly.

Are there any animals on board?

Not on the cargo list.

But the old fox

must be hiding something.

Hurry over to me.

Quickly.

Come on.

Be careful.

Hurry.

What are you waiting for?

Go!

Zhan Hui!

- Su Li!

- Zhan Hui!

Help!

Zhan Hui?

Zhan Hui?

Don't scare me, Zhan Hui.

Where are you, Zhan Hui?

Zhan Hui?

Zhan Hui?

Su Li!

Zhan Hui!

Come out.

Or I'll sh**t.

Walk over here slowly.

Don't sh**t.

I just want to survive.

Give me a reason not to k*ll you.

I have four hibernation pods.

You need me.

What is that?

Look.

It's Su Li.

- Mom!

- What are you doing? Come back.

Mom!

- Mom!

- Come back.

Mom!

- Sit down.

- Mom!

Quiet.

What's going on?

This is too scary.

Mom.

Gemini must be smuggling

a genetically engineered monster.

Not only can it

become optically invisible,

but it can also self-heal its wounds.

No matter what it is,

if it doesn't die, we will.

Du Xiao!

Run, you fool!

Du Xiao!

She's already dead.

It's a trap.

- Go!

- Another one's dead.

Get out of here!

Hurry up, Duo! Hurry!

Help!

Help!

Calm down.

It wants to k*ll us all.

Let's get out of here first.

We need to take down the culprit.

I'll go look for Gemini.

You hold the spot here.

The monster is optically invisible.

Once the torches are lit,

you'll be able to see it.

Let's not waste any more time with them.

I'll control the monster directly.

By the way,

don't k*ll that female crew member yet.

I still need her assistance

to retrofit the hibernation pods.

They'll soon know what nightmares are.

Tengben, you fool.

You bought these death-trap tickets

to save money.

Are you trying to get us k*lled?

Zi.

I need to provide for the family.

I need to support you.

Run!

What are you doing?

The monster is in.

Why is it here?

I don't know.

The others

are all in the cargo hold corridor.

I'll take care of them.

The bionic warrior is yours.

I'll go try him.

Remember, we need

the female crew member alive.

As long as she is alive,

right?

Here it comes.

Fire!

It's wounded.

Take the others

to the recycling chamber.

I'll stay behind and finish it off.

Xing Tian.

I needed evidence to catch you earlier.

Now, you've made the job much easier.

It'd be unfair to you if I wore armor.

Is it still easier now?

Run!

So this is the secret

of you undying bionic warriors.

Not only can I heal my wounds,

I can also...

How do you k*ll that monster?

Tell me!

Move it! Go!

Quick!

The monster is catching up.

Grandma!

The door is broken. It won't lock.

Grandma!

Go!

We can't all die here.

Move quickly!

They can't die in vain.

Hurry up, go!

Grandma!

Grandma!

Go!

Grandma!

Grandma!

If you want to k*ll the monster,

you need the neurotoxin we have.

Hand it over.

There's only one vial of it.

And it's not with me.

Moreover...

Hurry!

I can't hold on much longer.

But I can still hold the door.

Without you,

those two little girls won't survive.

Just go!

What is this?

This is a military nano-injection fluid

extracted from me.

No matter how serious your injuries are,

it can save you

as long as you're not dead.

What about you?

What if you get injured again?

You better heal your wounds first.

If the monster doesn't die,

we'll all die.

For her sake, you have to live.

This is the surveillance footage

from that time.

With it, you can clear your name.

Let's go together.

I have to try.

Below is the shield of Sailor Valley.

If the ship collides with it,

a lot of people will die.

Have you thought it through?

There are only two outcomes:

success or failure.

What use is this to me now?

At least you can explain it

to that girl.

Don't kid me.

If I die,

you have to keep Gia and Duo alive.

Gia went to the recycling chamber.

Go catch her.

You wouldn't expect me

to go empty-handed, would you?

It's one woman and two children.

Is it a tough mission?

Alright.

I've put all my bets on you.

Don't disappoint me.

It takes the two of us

to take down that bionic warrior.

This neurotoxin

can bring down the monster.

And it will surely bring him down too.

[Recycling Chamber, MRS Star Seeker]

Ting?

Duo?

It's alright now.

It's okay.

I'm here. Don't worry.

It's fine now.

Someone's coming.

Get up quickly.

You guys go first.

Quick.

Go. Be careful.

Come out.

Do you think I wouldn't know

how big this place is?

Go.

Hurry.

Ting is injured.

She's bleeding.

Quickly take her with you.

You guys go first.

Let's go.

Go.

Hurry.

Hang in there.

Lu Ming will come to save us.

No one

can decide how I live

or die.

Leave them to me.

That monster

is being controlled by Gemini.

When I take them out,

you'll be able to blow it up.

Here.

I hope you won't need to use it.

Wait.

Don't die.

Same to you.

As long as you survive,

you will win your freedom.

See you in the engine chamber in a bit.

Come on.

Duo!

Duo!

Duo!

Help!

Duo!

Warning:

If it weren't for your high value,

I'd gladly dismantle you for free.

I've lost.

But

you haven't won either.

Gia?

Gia?

Duo?

Sir.

Let go of me, you rat!

What are you looking at?

This old rat

has a daughter too.

This is a picture of my daughter

from 30 years ago.

Back then,

we shared everything with each other,

and she trusted me the most.

But now,

I don't know where she is,

what kind of life she's living,

or what she looks like.

Don't you think it's cruel?

Cruel?

Why do I feel

it's far from cruel enough for you?

What did you say?

Get up.

Go.

Go.

I'm alright.

I lost the necklace.

Gia has also been taken away.

Only those who saved comrades

on the b*ttlefield at the risk of death

can earn this medal.

Your parents gave this to you

because they hoped

you'd grow up safe and sound.

Don't lose it again.

Go.

Come back.

There's a door here.

I found a door.

Come on.

Let's go.

Duo, over there.

Let's go to the engine chamber.

[Engine Chamber, MRS Star Seeker]

Go.

This is the airlock chamber.

Outside is the space.

We're cornered.

I've activated the distress signal.

Someone will come to rescue you soon.

The hatch will be opened

from the inside.

But you will be safe.

What about you?

If you're injured,

this can save your life.

But you're already injured.

Take it and keep it safe.

Go.

I'll hold it off.

Please be safe!

Duo,

there's something I have to tell you.

I am responsible for the deaths

of 80,000 people in Sailor Valley,

including your parents.

I'm sorry.

Thank goodness you remember

that I can survive

for 30 minutes in space.

I came as soon as I saw the signal.

I thought you had gotten lost.

Don't worry. She's just oxygen-deprived.

She'll wake up soon.

Move.

What's wrong?

She's in a coma

for the impact on her brain.

I need to re-establish a connection

with the monster

to wake her up.

What do we do now?

That pilot and the bionic warrior

are still alive.

If you don't help me,

I'll k*ll you right now.

Alright.

What do you want me to do?

This is a neurotoxin.

Inject it into the monster.

Once it's sedated,

we can re-establish

a connection with it.

Then I can wake her up.

My leg.

Don't say I didn't give you a chance.

It's you who wasted it.

It seems I bet on the wrong people.

But fortunately,

I have this.

Warning:

The recipient of treatment

is in mortal danger.

What are you doing?

Warning:

The recipient of treatment

is in mortal danger.

I have survived until today

not because of luck.

What are you doing?

Captain just k*lled Gemini.

Now

he has the neurotoxin.

It is the only way to k*ll the monster.

There are only five of us left now.

Lu Ming,

if you want the three of them

to survive,

you must k*ll the monster.

Otherwise,

everyone will die.

It's your choice.

So people like you can die

from too much blood loss as well.

Behave yourself.

Don't waste the opportunity

that Lu Ming gave you.

Don't let me see you again.

It's time for you to show your skills.

Reboot the AI system immediately.

All of this

will soon be over.

Come here!

I will tear you apart.

If I had held on

a little longer last time,

those people wouldn't have died.

Today,

I won't give up again.

Come on!

You're going to die.

Everyone is going to die.

Do you regret it?

I hope you won't need it.

System reboot completed.

Automatic detection starts.

I already know your answer.

Do you want to hear mine?

I will let the wounded soldier

take my place

to escape with the commander.

Then I will stay behind

with the pilot, who saved many lives,

to try to save more together.

If you're injured,

this can save your life.

Take it and keep it safe.

He's already dead.

He won't hurt anymore.

Only four people are left

on the ship now.

Accept it.

AI won't be wrong.

Just let the child do something for him.

We must believe in hope.

Let's go.

We will see him again.

It's your turn.

I wish you could hear their screams

in every coming night.

In this world,

forgetting is easy.

I don't want to live in such a world.

When you wake up,

the first thing you see

will be good news.

I will let the wounded soldier

take my place

to escape with the commander.

Then I will stay behind

with the pilot, who saved many lives,

to try to save more together.

[Stargate Abyss]

[Beijing Municipal Radio

and Television Bureau]

Hi, Duo.

When you wake up,

I'll be seven years older.

But you'll still be seven years old.

Isn't it fun?

But there's nothing fun on this ship.

So you didn't miss much.

Xing Tian,

you brat.

See? I planted all these.

I'm the only one awake on the ship now.

Now that the oxygen level

in the ship is reduced,

it's enough for me

to live for seven years.

It's like living in a high-altitude area

with low oxygen.

I got used to it quickly.

Old man,

some of them found their way home.

Some regained their freedom.

And some found hope again.

But what about you?

I hope that when you are in jail

in the future,

your daughter will visit you.

Gia,

at that time,

you thought I was dead.

But actually,

I could hear you.

I was glad

to hear your answer.

The reason I hang in here

is that I want to tell you

in person one day

that we made the right choice.

Duo,

I heard what you said too.

Never

give up hope.

No matter what,

I will hang in here.

Because I promised you guys.

See you in the new world.
