The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Chapter 85: Chapter 85: Unstable Factors

”Drip—”

”Death.”

”Drip—”

”Death.”

With each prompt, several ’corpses’ lying on the ground turned as black as the bottom of a pot: ”You all teamed up to play ’Immortal’s leap’?”

But who cares about the opinions of a corpse, huh? Yue Qiguang glared at Yue Qiyuan, ”Yue Qiyuan, if you dare to snatch my points again, don’t blame me for not being polite.”

Yue Qiyuan indifferently responded: ”It’s your own fault for being too slow, blaming me, huh?” Not only did he offset the negative points, but he also made a profit of 80 points.

Not bad.

Yue Qiyuan was very satisfied.

When Yue Qiguang was about to explode with rage, he suddenly saw Chu Jiaojiao slapping her thigh, laughing wildly: ”Hahaha... I finally have 100 points too!”

On the other side, Sheng Qingyan covered her eyes, a face of disbelief, ”I actually got 20 points now... I’m so awesome...”

Yue Qiguang felt even more stifled.

Thus, he angrily grabbed the almost collapsed Ji You, ”What are you lying down for? Get up and work! Hurry up and attract 100 people for daddy!”

Ji You covered her face, almost wishing she could cry ’Yingyingying’.

She was miserable.

Truly miserable.

To survive, even though she sweet-talked a few people into releasing her, but what then? As bait, it obviously wasn’t a good job, especially with the Yue Qi brothers, who only had eyes for the points, they hardly treated her like a human being.

A night passed, the entire night, Ji You was running, fleeing for her life without a moment of rest.

Ji You even began to wonder if such a life, such surviving by a hair, could still be considered ’alive’?

Living—

But without a spine to be proud of, just leaving an empty shell.

Yingyingying~

But—

She had 65 points in her hand! As long as she’s alive, these 65 points will remain safe, and no one can take them away.

But if she died?

It’s said that death brings a penalty of points deduction.

No!

No one should even think about deducting these ​​points!

After a moment of hesitation, Ji You’s conviction strengthened:

Stay alive!

She must stay alive.

Therefore, she needed to create opportunities to rest for herself; otherwise, if she kept ’attracting monsters’ with such high intensity, her body and mind surely wouldn’t hold up.

At this moment, the sky was lightening to the pale color of a fish’s belly, a white fog drifting through the jungle... Dawn had broken.

For a while, Ji You threw all her face and prestige to the wind, she twisted out of Yue Qiguang’s grasp with a clever move, threw herself on the grass, and wailed: ”You want the horse to run, but also don’t want the horse to eat the grass, where in the world is there such a good thing? You few have enslaved me for a whole night without letting me rest, big bosses...”

”Please have some mercy...”

”Be human.”

”I’m just a trash with a Level Double E.”

”Yingyingying... I really can’t endure days and nights without sleep like you all...”

”Let me sleep for a while, just a while...”

”Otherwise... I can only go and embrace death.”

As she spoke, Ji You’s eyes sneakily opened a slit: ”You... surely don’t want me to die that quickly, right?”

Everyone: ”...”

After tasting the sweetness of quickly racking up points, giving it up obviously isn’t that easy.

Seeing their expressions soften, Ji You seizes the opportunity and immediately says, ”You guys protect me, and I’ll just sleep for one hour! After an hour, I guarantee I’ll be lively as a dragon.”

After speaking, she flops down and starts snoring loudly.

Yue Qiguang’s face darkens.

Yue Qiyuan’s eyes turn colder.

Chu Jiaojiao frowns and says, ”Let her sleep for a while. Otherwise—her face is getting ugly. Not good!”

Sheng Qingyan takes the chance to say, ”I’ll also take a nap, hmm...”

After saying that, she lies down too.

The remaining few, looking dumbfounded: ”...”

So—what’s the situation now?

The three top S-level powerhouses in the exercise field have turned into personal nannies, having to protect these two weaklings and stick close to them at all times?

One hour later.

After her cheeks are flicked a few times, Ji You wakes up from deep sleep, opens her eyes, and is immediately confronted with three faces that look like debt collectors, crying out, ”It’s all Huang Shiren’s fault.”

Yue Qiguang orders, ”Get up and work!”

Ji You casts a resentful glance at him and says, ”I was dreaming, dreaming about killing you...”

Yue Qiguang, hearing this, says disdainfully, ”You dare to dream, huh.”

Chu Jiaojiao stares at Ji You’s refreshed and energetic face after the sleep and smiles with narrowed eyes, ”So pretty.”

Ji You unconsciously ignores her and turns to the only relatively normal Yue Qiyuan on the scene.

Yue Qiyuan squats by the side, pointing to the rough terrain map on the ground, his tone hiding a hint of excitement, ”Come on... let’s see, which piece of meat shall we gnaw on next?”

The map, a makeshift creation of the exercise field put together by a few guys on the fly.

Yue Qiyuan points and says, ”I think we should start here first; there’s a team’s base. They have about 50 people. We send Ji You out to lure a few of them, then we strike their lair.”

Chu Jiaojiao glances over and immediately objects, ”I disagree, I think we should hit this area, this team has 150 people, and it’s said that the highest level among them is only A-level.”

Yue Qiyuan: ”Attacking a bigger group makes too much noise. If teams like Shen Changqing and Lou notice us now, it will be a bit troublesome to handle.”

Yue Qiguang is a greedy simpleton, hearing that, he blurts out, ”Afraid of what? Kill any that come, kill pairs that come! I’m sick of fighting groups of a few dozen people; if we’re to do it, let’s go big and take on the 150-people group!”

Sheng Qingyan sits on the side, rubbing her eyes non-stop, lamenting the decrease of her beauty value, and not joining the discussion.

The three people each stick to their guns, arguing fiercely.

Ji You watches all this, shaking her head over and over, she sighs and says, ”Everyone, can you listen to the suggestion of a professional ’bait’? As the most glorious bait, I should have the right to speak, right?”

Yue Qiguang: ”Baits don’t have human rights; shut it.”

Yue Qiyuan: ”Speak.”

Chu Jiaojiao: ”Hmm... Do you have a better suggestion?”

Ji You says, ”With the level your brains are at, if it weren’t for my lack of strength, I could beat hundreds or thousands of you. Sigh~”

Yue Qiguang, upon hearing this, is about to burst, but his brother Yue Qiyuan stops the riled-up simpleton on the side. He looks at Ji You and says, ”Give us your suggestion, no personal attacks.” He now strongly opposes any kind of personal attack.

Ji You points in the direction of a mountain to the east, then to a mountain in the north, saying, ”Here, and here, you know what these places are, right? This is Shen Changqing’s stronghold, and this is the base of Lou and Lance. These two forces are evenly matched and won’t clash seriously in a short time. Didn’t you guys notice by yourselves? The current battles between these two forces are just skirmishes, nothing serious. That’s because they’ve reached an agreement: their primary task is to eliminate small groups and powers... After these people are wiped out, they can then fight it out.”

”The rules of the exercise field, remember? Only 500 can survive. Each of these teams has 500 members, and of course, their plan is to ensure their own team members make it to the end.”

”But—small groups and powers are not so easy to deal with. Their bases are scattered, hidden in every corner of the field, with a massive base of personnel... If you’re not careful, you might get shot in the back, so that’s also the reason why Shen Changqing and Lou prioritize dealing with small forces. If both sides really fight, and others take advantage of the situation, that’s not a nice experience.”

Yue Qiyuan strokes his chin: ”Hmm...”

Chu Jiaojiao frowns: ”Is that so?”

Ji You smiles and asks, ”Think about it, what did we do last night? What are we planning to do now? Isn’t what we are doing exactly helping them, aiding the strong forces in eliminating the smaller ones? Once they are cleared out—will we still be alive?”

”You all—are very unlikable threats and unstable elements.”

”If it were me, I would also unite with the opponent to deal with you all first.”
