Wow! The item-dropping rate is really high! Chapter 873 873: 620 Riot!2

Bai E did not put on the air of a country bumpkin visiting the city, curiously looking around at everything.

Being from a remote planet with no prior contact with Interstellar Society wasn't necessarily good or bad; before truly understanding the foundational rules of the cosmic system, he needed to remain cautious.

But the Wild Wolf beside him, eager to prove his worth—or perhaps show off his knowledge to make this esteed figure see his usefulness—kept following Bai E's gaze, chattering incessantly: "That's the new Cloud-Steel Frawork from Yuntu Technology. It can replace the bones and neural structure throughout the entire body, offering incredible improvents to strength and adaptability!"

"And this? This is Stardream Company's simulation doll. Their latest combat model—it fights during the day, and at night... heh heh heh~"

"..."

Bai E said nothing throughout the journey, letting Wild Wolf guide him as he quickly familiarized himself with so of the basic trends in this vast universe.

Judging by the popular products alone, at least one thing was clear...

Humans in the universe did not face apocalyptic threats hanging directly overhead.

So insects, beastn, and high-dinsional demons—these things, to them, aren't that big of a danger... are they?

Bai E mulled these thoughts over quietly, unknowingly slowing his steps.

Thinking he had spotted sothing he wanted, Wild Wolf leaned in closer to Bai E's ear and whispered, "Master... it's better not to deal with this crowd."

"Hmm?" Bai E took two more steps forward, slightly intrigued by the words he had just seen.

'Refined Bai E.'

What the hell is that?

A lump of ashen gray material, neither too soft nor too hard, shaped into rectangular blocks.

"Master, if you don't frequent places like ours, you might not know the true owner behind this shop… It's a gang of lawless interstellar pirates! Not only do they pillage passenger and rchant ships amidst the currently chaotic environnt in our Stellar District, but they've also taken over three mining planets as their foundational industry. I've heard that many missing martial artists nearby... were captured by them to work as enslaved miners on their planets!

You might see their construction materials are priced slightly cheaper than other places, but there have been cases in which both the money and goods go missing in transactions. Unless you've got a reliable faction to back you up, I'd recomnd steering clear of them."

The Wild Wolf's eyes glimred with a sly yet cautious light.

Seeing Bai E focus a little more on the shop, of course, he had to explain the history and background thoroughly.

One, to demonstrate his value; and two, to gauge the depths of his master by leveraging such a force.

If the master shrinks back instantly, it would naturally indicate fear.

If the master remains intrigued, then the person he has chosen is indeed interesting.

And clearly, his judgnt was quite accurate.

Instead of showing fear, the master's eyes lit up at hearing this, revealing even greater interest.

'The volunteer player Kuang Xin ntioned seems to be working as an enslaved miner under a pirate organization.'

And I was originally following the signal of that volunteer player here. Although I didn't reach the exact location, having to drop out of high-dinsional space due to a high-dinsional storm, the mapping relationship between high-dinsional space and material space is generally positively correlated on a large scale.

It seems that I should be fairly close to where that volunteer player is located.

And for a pirate group of this scale, there can't be too many within one region, right?

Perhaps, through these people, I can find the pirate organization behind them and figure out a way to contact that player.

But… not now.

Considering my current limited strength, and without knowing the upper-tier combat levels of this galaxy, I certainly can't go head-to-head with an entire pirate organization roaming the Star Sea.

ntally noting this lead, Bai E resud his stride. Under Wild Wolf's continued introduction, he walked through this bustling alien comrcial district, working quickly to acclimate himself to the basic environnt of this universe.

...

Walking past what seed like an illicit flesh business storefront, Wild Wolf's eyes unmistakably glead with longing, "Master, Yu's tenderness truly is one of a kind..."

Before Bai E could shoot him a look, the lower layer of the comrcial hub suddenly shook violently.

So pedestrians on the street stumbled unsteadily, nearly falling over.

From the flesh business establishnt burst a crowd of gaudily dressed n and won. The most flamboyantly dressed woman scread shrill curses as she erged, "Who is it? Who the hell dares cause trouble in Freeport!?!"

But louder and sharper than her voice was the blaring warning siren echoing across Freeport.

"Warning! Warning! Cease ard conflict imdiately and await Law Enforcent Team intervention!"

"Warning! Warning! Cease ard conflict imdiately and await Law Enforcent Team intervention!"

The broadcast repeated again and again.

But it was clear that the combatants paid no heed to such threats.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

Intermittent tremors rippled through the structural floor beneath everyone's feet, sending visceral vibrations to all.

So were subtle, so pronounced—but Bai E had felt these tremors, originating from the substructure zone, much earlier.

It must be... the organization called the "Dagger Society" clashing head-on with that mysterious woman, right?

As soone privy to the situation, Wild Wolf stared blankly toward the direction they had co from, mumbling to himself, "They... they actually dared use thermal weaponry in such a place..."

Not just thermal weaponry—but large-scale, high-energy thermal weaponry!

When his boss had asked over the phone whether those rogue wanderers had used thermal weapons, it had already sent a chill through his spine.

But he never imagined that with the entire Dagger Society regrouped, those bastards would actually dare to disregard Freeport's basic safety and unleash high-energy thermal weaponry within the structural layers!

It was a blatant disregard for the life and safety of everyone present on Freeport!

"Crazy! They're all crazy!" Wild Wolf looked at Bai E urgently, "Master, we really need to leave."

If those lunatics, driven by Peak Alliance's bounty, blew apart Freeport's structural layers, the entire hub could end up as debris floating in space.

For most who couldn't traverse the vast universe with their physical bodies, this could an becoming little more than frozen corpses drifting in the void… Wild Wolf included.

Bai E furrowed his brows and jerked his chin at Wild Wolf, "Lead the way."

No running wasn't an option.

Right now, his strength levels were uncertain, but definitely not enough to physically survive free-floating through the cosmos.

Not to ntion, without the fourth-tier Spiritual Energy powers he previously possessed, he couldn't even summon the cha sealed within his Psychic Storage Space.

If Freeport were truly obliterated, he could honestly end up dead.

This is the universe, huh?

Damn exhilarating!

The crowd erupted in chaos.

It wasn't just the two of them who realized the imminent danger.

Amid the frantic stampede toward the port where countless ships were docked, Bai E and Wild Wolf were no more than a tiny snapshot within the surging tide of terrified people.

But thanks to their superior physical abilities and reflexes, the two managed to shove their way to the front ranks closest to the port.

At tis like this, who cares about buying tickets for proper boarding?

Getting on the ship first and paying later—that's the real survival logic.

While traditional passenger and rchant ships held off the crowd, attempting to maintain Order, two entirely black ships swung their massive doors open, welcoming all aboard.

"Welco aboard the Black Pearl! In critical tis like these, mutual aid and solidarity should guide us through difficulties!" A seemingly magnanimous cowboy stood at the boarding gate, shouting into a gaphone while taking potshots at competitors, "We firmly oppose unscrupulous rchants trying to gouge desperate passengers in situations like this!"

But Wild Wolf pulled Bai E directly toward the unscrupulous rchants, "Master, don't go there—those are the pirate ships! Board those ships, and they'll drag you off to be enslaved miners!"
