The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Chapter 1447: Chapter 1447: Search

Liu Ming and his companions were still stunned, watching the young man with short red hair put away his weapon and ask them, "Do you have anyone else?"

Liu Ming and the other two were dumbfounded.

Yue Qiguang, unusually patient, said, "Does your team have anyone else? Do you need a ride?" Upon asking, he suddenly noticed Liu Ming’s severed arm and his expression instantly darkened. He said, "Get on the spaceship."

Liu Ming blinked, "Oh, okay."

Yue Qiguang said over the comms to Ji You, "Someone’s injured, we need a medical kit." Ordinary injuries are one thing, but a wound from a Star Beast could potentially lead to infection with the Star Beast X virus, which must be promptly blocked. Therefore, Yue Qiguang dared not delay and urged, "Hurry."

Only then did Liu Ming snap back to reality and said, "Little... these brothers, there are no others in our team, just the three of us."

The spaceship lowered its elevator.

Yue Qiguang said, "Let’s go."

Liu Ming and the others were sent inside the spaceship for emergency treatment in the treatment cabin, skipping over the details. Yue Qiguang quickly searched the area where Liu Ming and his team had a mishap but found nothing unusual. He stared at the corpse of the black bear and asked Ji You, "4444, do we need to collect the black bear’s corpse?"

Ji You said, "No, get back up here quickly."

Yue Qiguang was clearly taken aback.

With Ji You’s character, as stingy and opportunistic as a miser, he’s actually passing up the black bear’s corpse?

Ji You stared at the monitor and said, "Space on the spaceship is limited, and handling and moving the black bear’s corpse would take at least 5 minutes, we don’t have that time."

Yue Qiguang had already returned to the spaceship and joked, "Wow, even someone like you who won’t spend 5000 credit points to fix your face has this kind of awareness?"

Ji You couldn’t be bothered with him and directly said, "Jiaojiao, hit him!"

Chu Jiaojiao leaped forward and said, "Ji You, I’ll ensure the task is complete!" After that, Chu Jiaojiao turned to Yue Qiguang and asked sinisterly, "Do you want to leave ashes, or not leave ashes?"

Yue Qiguang: "..."

Yue Qiguang turned around, "I’m not playing with you fools."

The spaceship, following its route, began flying over the Southern Hemisphere and continued circling around planet 381.

...

When A Ke came out looking fresh from the bathroom, he saw Liu Ming and his companions in the hall and clearly froze for a moment. He looked up at the clock hanging in the spaceship hall, realizing he had spent less than 3 minutes freshening up and changing clothes, but...

But when did these people appear?

The three of them were in the treatment cabin, not having sustained life-threatening injuries. Besides Liu Ming’s severed arm, the other two had only suffered minor scrapes. To be safe, Yue Qiyuan had all three of them go into the treatment cabin.

A Ke thought for a moment and understood what had happened. His sister and her classmates must have just rescued another group of people.

So powerful!

So strong!

A Ke’s heart was filled with admiration. Looking around curiously, his eyes shone brightly. As a poor youth from the garbage planet, before moving to Yangjiao Star, he had never ridden on a spaceship, let alone a military-type ship this impressive!

Everything here gave A Ke a sense of exhilaration and excitement!

However, A Ke restrained himself, just taking a sneaky glance without looking around or gazing left and right.

Ji You, sitting in the cockpit, was fully aware of everything happening inside the spaceship. Knowing A Ke had come out, she said over the broadcast, "A Ke, come to me."

When A Ke heard his sister’s voice over the broadcast, he was stunned again, "Calling... calling me?"

Ji You’s voice was steady and powerful, "I opened up permissions to the cockpit for you, come on."

Despite being mature for his age, upon hearing those words, A Ke didn’t hesitate and quickly ran into the cockpit.

Once inside, A Ke became even more excited, his fair face becoming a bit flushed.

Ji You said, "Curious?"

A Ke nodded vigorously, "Yes."

A Ke considered himself quite a stable person, but facing his sister’s eyes, that carried warmth within their darkness, he inexplicably felt like a child.

A Ke asked, "Sister, is this an X-31 military spaceship?"

Ji You said, "Yes."

A Ke’s eyes widened, "!!! It truly is! I’ve only ever seen it on TV and the Star Network before."

Feeling the child’s excitement, Ji You’s previously heavy mood suddenly lightened, and she smiled, "Actually, this is my first time flying this model spaceship too."

A Ke’s eyes brightened, genuinely praising, "Sister, for your first time flying it, you’re already so skillful, that’s really... really amazing!" For him, he wouldn’t even dare to imagine it.

Ji You said, "It’s nothing, with practice, you can do it too."

A Ke was a bit embarrassed and said, "But my spiritual power is only at C-level, so I might not qualify to fly a spaceship." Whether flying a spaceship or operating a Mecha, one needs to maintain a long-term focus with spiritual power, and a Spiritual Level that’s too low simply can’t accomplish this task.

Ji You said, "My spiritual power is only B-level."

A Ke: "!!!"

Ji You stared ahead and said slowly, "My spiritual power used to be E-level, and my physical strength was F-level."

A Ke: "!!!"

Although it might sound a bit motivational, Ji You still said, "As long as you want to, and you do it, nothing is impossible."

A Ke clasped his fist tightly, "Yes."

Ji You said, "We’re heading toward the Northern Hemisphere now. Are there any places we should pay attention to?" This planet is abandoned; residents, facilities, all administrative departments... have all been evacuated. So traveling all the way, aside from saving Liu Ming and his companions, they haven’t found any other humans, just stretches of ruins, garbage piles, and heavily polluted wilderness.

Ji You needed A Ke for navigation.

Upon hearing this, A Ke’s expression became extremely serious and he said, "Sister, you need to pay attention to Black Soil Mountain and Thorny Water River... In these directions, Black Soil Mountain has an abandoned ore vein. We, the wild gatherers, often try our luck around here. With good luck, you might pick up some ore. So, there must be other people lingering here. Thorny Water River is because the riverbank has a plant called Candle Grass growing there. Its root is a fairly valuable material, and people love to dig it up."

Ji You heard this and utilized the monitoring system for targeted scanning, surely finding traces of a few people in these places, but clearly, they weren’t in good condition.

Ji You’s face suddenly darkened.

Seeing the image on the monitor, A Ke’s heart sank as well.

Ji You’s tone calmed and she said, "Yue Qiguang, Jiaojiao, Spicy Eye, prepare."
