Let’s Squander A Billion First!

Chapter 2081: Chapter 2081: Light-Year Distance (10)

The Iron Town below has no name, and inside are not only humans but also other species, making it a place of mixed chaos.

Even in the smallest place, there is a division of power; here, the most formidable gang leader is called Du Bang.

Du Bang commands an armed force, everyone fears him, and usually, they have to follow his orders to get food and other necessities.

Overall, this place is like a miniature empire, and Du Bang is the king.

Most of these people have fallen from the sky, gradually, more and more people have arrived, developing it into what it is now.

People like Du Bang, who control this place, go outside to rob and bring some people back.

Such planets, where resources are scarce and living conditions are unsuitable, are generally barren stars, no one manages them, so it’s normal for someone to occupy this place as a base and declare themselves king.

”Do you know where they’re being held?” Chuzheng asked the child.

The child, mouth full of energy biscuit crumbs, hesitated upon hearing this, looked at the energy biscuit in hand, hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded.

”Take me there.”

The child shook his head furiously: ”If I’m caught, I’ll be beaten to death, I... I don’t dare.”

Chuzheng: ”With me here, no one can hurt you.”

The child didn’t believe her, his voice faint: ”Du Bang is very powerful.”

Du Bang?

Who?

Chuzheng: ”Not as powerful as me.”

The child hesitated and timidly asked: ”Really?”

Chuzheng nodded seriously.

The boss never lies!

The ones deceived aren’t human!

The child hesitated, unsure whether to trust Chuzheng, his dark eyes darting back and forth: ”Can you give me... some more food?”

Here, resources are very scarce, most of the time is spent hungry, being able to eat is lucky, being full is always a luxury.

The child’s request was nothing out of the ordinary.

Chuzheng took out more energy biscuits and water for him.

Water is evidently even scarcer, the child drank each sip cautiously, afraid of spilling a drop.

The sweet, clean water made the child’s eyes light up, it was as if he realized for the first time that water could be so delicious.

The child was reluctant to drink more, saved the water, and gritted his teeth: ”I’ll take you there.”

He stuffed the items under his clothes, quickly got up.

”Not that way.” The child hastily stopped Chuzheng when seeing her heading the wrong direction: ”We need to go down this way.”

Chuzheng glanced in the other direction: ”What’s over there?”

The child: ”There’s a sentry over there, you’d be discovered. If caught, you’d die.”

”Oh.”

The boss fears nothing.

-

The child probably runs around these parts frequently; leading Chuzheng in without getting spotted.

The area isn’t large, but there are plenty of creatures, coming and going, surprisingly lively.

From their attire, you can generally tell their status here, the child was very afraid of encountering them, always avoiding them.

Finally, the child stopped in front of a building, pointing at the rusty iron door: ”I saw them taken inside.”

Chuzheng peered through the iron door, seeing a spacious area, only the buildings standing there were visible, nothing else.

”What is this place?”

The child’s voice shook, looking very scared: ”Slaughterhouse.”

”Huh?” Slaughterhouse? Slaughter what??

”I... I brought you here, I’m leaving.” The child immediately ran to the side, disappearing from Chuzheng’s view in a few steps.

Chuzheng: ”...”

Alright then.

I’ll go myself!

Chuzheng climbed into the slaughterhouse, once inside, she roughly understood what this place was.

Many creatures were held here, not only humans but also other species.

The ground was stained with various blood marks, the air filled with strange, nauseating smells.

Chuzheng saw guards with weapons, patrolling back and forth.

Avoiding these guards, Chuzheng went inside. Some creatures noticed her, seeing her sneaky movements, their first reaction was to rush to the door, yelling in a language Chuzheng couldn’t understand.

Chuzheng activated the translator on her personal terminal, the strange language was immediately translated into comprehensible sentences.

”Get me out, help me open the door...”

”Help me, help me!!”

”Quick, open the door, get me out!”

”Stop shouting, it won’t benefit anyone.” Chuzheng scolded in a low voice: ”Follow my lead if you want to get out.”

The creature closest to Chuzheng, looking like a tomato person, threatened: ”Let me out first, or I’ll call people over!!”

”Go ahead and call.” Chuzheng made a gesture of invitation.

Please, begin your performance.

The tomato person hesitated, possibly because he looked like a vegetable, making him not very smart, he indeed began to shout himself hoarse.

If you don’t let me out, I won’t let you off easy.

Chuzheng leisurely stood outside, waiting for him to shout while bending slightly: ”Still calling?”

The surroundings were silent, no one came to check.

Tomato person: ”...”

Chuzheng took out a metal rod from the side, stretched it in, and gave a swing, the tomato person rolled his eyes and finally collapsed unconscious.

The creatures imprisoned nearby: ”...”

Shivering in fear, not daring to make a sound.

Chuzheng quickly found the people from the Second Legion, a total of four, lying on the ground, uncertain of their condition.

Chuzheng got them out.

The people were unconscious, no matter how called they won’t wake.

Chuzheng fell silent, looked down at her own palm, took a deep breath, and went over to give several slaps.

Other creatures: ”...”

Too damn vicious!!

”Deputy Inspector Liang?” The person waking up looked confusedly at the person in front: ”Where... where is this?” Face hurts a lot.

Chuzheng moved aside, pretending she didn’t do anything: ”How would I know.”

That person got up holding his face, roused the other three awake.

”How did you get caught?” Chuzheng asked.

”...Don’t remember.”

When the escape pod ejected, the descent was chaotic, later they just passed out, upon waking they saw Chuzheng realizing they were captured...

Chuzheng: ”...”

A bunch of useless people, what was the point of rescuing them!

”Deputy Inspector Liang, how are the others? Can you get in contact?”

Chuzheng shook her head: ”Let’s head out first.”

The few immediately supported each other to stand up, Chuzheng was now the highest-ranking officer, they had to listen.

Following Chuzheng outside, their gaze swept over the imprisoned creatures, the four were somewhat shocked.

How could there be so many creatures imprisoned here?

What purpose are they held for?

Before the four could ask whether to rescue them, Chuzheng waved a hand, all cell doors automatically opened, the creatures inside were stunned.

The next second, all creatures rushed out competing to exit.

The tomato person woke up to find the entire holding room empty, only himself left, feeling a blackout, almost fainted again, wishing he could just die.
