Chapter 764: En Route
Hearing Ji You’s words, Yue Qiguang felt a bit uncomfortable, his mouth twitching as he tried to cover up his embarrassnt and said, "Dad certainly knows that he can’t beat others right now, but Dad’s style has always been to not just survive, but to face the difficulties head-on!"
"Oh~" Ji You rolled his eyes, "You want to beco the interstellar version of a buzz-cut man, huh?"
Yue Qiguang: "..."
Ji You: "Currently, within the Eight Star Systems of human society, there are only 88 buzz-cut n, a highly endangered species. So, are you planning to make yourself a protected animal?"
Yue Qiguang: "..."
Yue Qiguang, with a darkened face, said: "Dad’s not an animal."
"Got it." Ji You nodded, "You’re a beast of burden."
Yue Qiguang: "..."
Beside him, Yue Qiguang softly admonished his foolish older brother: "That’s enough! Stop humiliating yourself."
Yue Qiguang was quite frustrated and muttered: "Dad didn’t plan on fighting with that group of Free rcenaries right now! I just want to rember their faces, so the next ti we bump into each other, I’ll take them down one punch at a ti!"
After saying this, Yue Qiguang thought he would provoke Ji You’s mockery again, but unexpectedly—
Ji You suddenly clenched his fist and said: "That’s the spirit! I’ve morized their faces. Next ti, let’s take them down together!"
Yue Qiguang: "..."
For a mont, he wasn’t quite adapted to the style of No. 4444.
Beside them.
Shen Changqing looked at the search results on the Light Computer, paused, and said: "Unfortunately, I couldn’t find any information on this group of Free rcenaries."
"Hmm?" Ji You asked: "Not a single piece of information?"
Shen Changqing nodded: "Yes."
Chu Jiaojiao stroked her chin and said, "There are only 2 possibilities for this situation. One, they are not registered Free rcenaries within the Alliance. Two, their information was intentionally hidden."
Hearing this, everyone fell a bit silent.
After a while, Ji You said: "Then let’s give up the investigation. I asked you guys to look for them just because they seed a bit odd, and I felt a tinge of uneasiness inside."
Upon hearing this, Shen Changqing said in a quiet voice: "I also have a similar feeling."
Yue Qiyuan spoke in a grave tone: " too."
Ji You, Yue Qiyuan, and Shen Changqing turned towards the others; Chu Jiaojiao imdiately shook her head.
Yue Qiguang, Lou, Xuzhou, Lance, Zhang Ye, all shook their heads in turn.
Ji You frowned and asked the only one who hadn’t moved, Sheng Qingyan: "Spicy Eye, what about you?"
Sheng Qingyan furrowed his brow, his tone unusually serious, and said: "I think the skinny man in the middle is a bit weird."
"As to the specifics of what’s weird, I can’t quite put my finger on it." As he spoke, Sheng Qingyan suddenly covered his mouth, yawned, and his tone started to beco frivolous again: "Why bother thinking so much, eh? We might not even run into these folks again in the future."
Hmm?
So, those who can sense sothing off about these people are those with high Spiritual Levels? Those who are more perceptive? Like himself, Yue Qiyuan, Shen Changqing, and Sheng Qingyan.
Ji You shelved his thoughts, nodded in agreent with Sheng Qingyan, and said: "You have a point. Let’s put this group of people aside for now."
Shen Changqing said, "Mm. I also advise against looking too deeply into this group’s affairs right now."
Everyone else felt the sa way.
Then, Ji You turned to Xuzhou and asked, "Little Zhouzhou, how much farther is it to Jump Point No. 38?"
After Xuzhou gave the accurate distance, he thought for a mont and continued: "Our current course will take us through the Nebula Grand Canyon in 30 minutes—"
The Nebula Grand Canyon isn’t a real canyon; it’s simply that the topographic map of star space in that area resembles a canyon, hence the na.
This area contains several planets, but all are resource-poor or outright unsuitable for human habitation.
Xuzhou specifically pointed this out mainly because he was worried about the possibility of interstellar pirates lying in ambush to attack as they all passed through the Nebula Grand Canyon.
Ji You said: "Accelerate and blast through in one go."
Xuzhou was thinking the sa thing.
Shen Changqing reminded: "Have everyone pay more attention to the surroundings." Currently, they had traversed a large portion of the route, with only about a day left to reach their destination. Nobody wanted any accidents at this stage.
Ji You promptly made the arrangents.
Half an hour later.
After reaching the Nebula Grand Canyon, Xuzhou and Sheng Qingyan sat in the cockpit, accelerating forward.
The spaceship sped up to its maximum, and along the way, Ji You could clearly see through the monitor that stars kept passing by.
This sight—
No matter how many tis one sees it, it always remains utterly astonishing:
Human technology is truly magnificent.
Human intelligence, too, is truly boundless.
On the journey forward, the entire team 44 kept their nerves taut, not daring to relax.
As ti ticked by—
Finally, the spaceship smoothly exited the canyon area without any incidents.
"Stay sharp!" Now that it was safe, Ji You was even more cautious, loudly reminding everyone.
minute.
minutes.
minutes.
...
It wasn’t until the nebula grand canyon was no longer visible on the navigation map that Ji You said, "Switch shifts!"
Imdiately, everyone changed positions according to the previously assigned roles.
This ti, those who got to rest were Sheng Qingyan, Xuzhou, and Yue Qiguang.
As Xuzhou was heading towards the resting area, he saw Ji You still fixated on the navigation map in the monitor, her eyebrows knitted in full concentration, occasionally raising her hand to rub her brow.
Xuzhou paused his step:
Among everyone, Ji You was the only one who hadn’t rested.
Why didn’t she let others go to rest and rest herself?
Xuzhou hesitated for a mont, pursed his lips, and said, "Captain, I think you can take a break."
Hearing this, Ji You snapped out of her thoughts and imdiately laughed: "Wow! Little Zhouzhou is worrying about Barbie now, huh!"
Xuzhou: "..."
Xuzhou turned around and left!
To hell with caring!
Zhang Ye happened to walk out of the resting room and ran into Xuzhou’s gloomy face. Zhang Ye asked, "What’s wrong? Little Zhouzhou?"
Xuzhou pursed his lips: "It’s my mistake to be nosy."
If it weren’t for being nosy back then, it wouldn’t have co to this, so—
From now on, better to speak less and do more!
Having said that, Xuzhou continued with a dark face and stepped into the resting area to seclude himself.
Zhang Ye walked up to Ji You and asked, "Did you bully Little Zhouzhou again?"
Ji You, focusing on the route, replied without turning her head, "No."
Zhang Ye said, "Don’t always bully him; he’s an honest person."
"Cough cough..." Ji You chuckled, "I love dealing with honest people the most."
Honest people = easy to bully!
Zhang Ye was sowhat speechless.
The spaceship traveled steadily, and soon, they reached the 38th jump point!
Ji You looked at the stellar navigation map on the monitor and said, "Prepare for the jump!"
The spaceship accelerated, rushing into the jump point.
Then, the spaceship smoothly erged from the jump point, already in a different part of space.
Ji You had just slightly relaxed her tight nerves when she imdiately saw an object floating ahead of the spaceship on the monitor.
Her expression beca serious:
It was—
A Star Beast corpse!
