The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Chapter 779: Chapter 779: Country Bumpkins Enter the City

minutes later, the spaceship began to slowly descend.

Han Zheng took the lead, stepping out of the spaceship’s boarding chamber first, followed by two other warriors stepping off the spaceship.

Next came Ma Lei and Senior He Bi’s students.

After them, it was Ji You, Chu Jiaojiao, and Shen Changqing, the group of students who arrived unexpectedly.

Ji You and the others could never have imagined that they would arrive at the frontline so early. Although it was just the outermost part of the frontline, it was still the frontline!

It was the frontline where Star Beasts could emerge and wreak havoc at any moment!

It was the frontline where they had to be ready for battle at any moment!

...

In any case, Ji You and the others, who were completely thrilled, were so excited that they had not even stepped off the spaceship yet but were craning their necks, eagerly trying to take in every detail of the scene before them.

But!

The frontline was slightly different from what they had imagined; the first thing that caught their eye was a small man-made space station. Unlike the expansive Kite Space Station, this station had a diameter of only about 500 kilometers. The station was shaped like an eagle spreading its wings, hence, it was named Eagle Space Station.

Apart from the Eagle Space Station, the starry space around it was dotted with hundreds of large and small detection satellites.

Beyond that, there was nothing else.

This was the first checkpoint of the frontline, which appeared somewhat monotonous.

After disembarking from the spaceship, having passed through several checks, Ji You and the others finally entered the interior.

It was then that Ji You and his companions’ eyes widened, showing a look characteristic of country bumpkins:

”Holy shit!”

”Cool!”

”Awesome!”

Inside the vast space station, there were rows of giant, imposing mechas, both Heavy Armor and Light Armor, and various other kinds perfectly sorted indoor. Even without getting closer, they emitted a huge oppressive force, as if they were about to jump up and choose someone to devour at any moment.

Six warriors guarded nearby, the cold gleam reflecting off the mechas enveloped the six warriors, intensifying the deadly aura emanating from them.

This was the imposing presence naturally formed from experienced warriors.

Everyone stopped in their tracks.

Then, Han Zheng saluted the leading warrior, briefly exchanged a few words, and the leading warrior glanced over towards Ji You and the other students.

Ji You instinctively straightened up and led the others in giving a standard warrior’s salute:

”Greetings, senior!”

The leading warrior nodded in acknowledgment.

...

Separated from the mecha chamber were the weapon room and energy room.

Various types of particle cannons, energy weapons, cold weapons, thermo-hydrogen power, hydrogen nuclear reactors, satellite-level superpower...

High-tech weapons and energy systems were dazzling to the eyes.

Ji You, Chu Jiaojiao, Shen Changqing, Yue Qiyuan... the 10 students watched intently, unable to tear their eyes away until—

He Bi patted Ji You on the head and smiled saying, ”This bumpkin, close your mouth, or you’ll catch flies.”

Ji You: ”...”

Ji You raised her hand, wiped her drool, and asked: ”Senior He Bi, can we touch these things?”

He Bi nodded: ”Yes.”

Yue Qiguang’s eyes suddenly lit up: ”Then, can we try getting on the mecha?”

He Bi looked at Yue Qiguang and asked with a smile: ”Have you passed the High-level Mecha Driving license examination?”

Yue Qiguang: ”...”

Others: ”...”

Ji You glanced at He Bi, thinking how good He Bi, the scumbag, was at hitting where it hurts! Just a few words and it instantly dampens the mood.

Cough cough...

After undergoing multiple checks, Ji You’s spaceship was sent for maintenance, and only after it was serviced did they start replenishing the energy.

During this period, Ji You and the others were arranged to wait in the training room. The Eagle Space Station has a designated rest area, but at the strong request of Ji You and her group, they were allowed into the training room exclusively used by frontline warriors.

The training room was fully equipped, allowing them even to quench their thirst for driving mechas! However, since Ji You, Chu Jiaojiao, Shen Changqing... these 10 rookies only had Low-level Mecha Driving licenses, their thrill was limited to ordinary Low-star mechas.

Humanity has developed till now, for survival, for exploration, technology has been continuously progressing.

The evolution of mechas has also followed technological development and continued to advance.

Early human combat gear against Star Beasts couldn’t even be called mechas; they were just mechanical products, also known as unmanned combat drones. Humans used wireless waves to remotely control them, but this led to many problems. Drones often encountered issues like signal interruption and instability, causing data transmission errors, losses, leading to combat failures and impacting the entire battle situation.

Later, humans discovered the use of spiritual power, and they continuously improved weapons for survival, thus inventing the First Generation Mecha—the antique mecha that Ji You frequently used in the Star Network.

First Generation Mecha, by linking human spiritual power through a Spiritual Connector, could more advancedly and flexibly achieve human-like operation of mechas. This great invention could be said to realize the concept of ’human as mecha’!

Afterward, the entire human society began to experience a major technological transformation because of this great invention!

Starting from mechas, spaceships, starships, floating cars... even ordinary civil products shifted from relying solely on manual mechanical technology to using spiritual power-controlled products.

This greatly facilitated human life, but also caused a little bit of trouble, like Ji You, who initially had low spiritual power, always facing job rejections...

Let’s skip these for now.

From the spiritual power-controlled antique mechas to the present, human mecha technology has continuously progressed, and it has now developed to the 15th generation. Based on the 15th generation Standard Mecha currently in service in the Alliance, mechas are classified from 1 to 9 stars.

1-3 star mechas are collectively referred to as Low-level Mechas.

4-6 star mechas are collectively referred to as Intermediate Mechas.

7-9 star mechas are collectively referred to as High-level Mechas.

The distinction in star levels is mainly based on differences in the materials used, manufacturing technology, precision, propulsion systems, energy systems, driving difficulty, required spiritual level, etc.

Ji You and her group were currently only able to drive Low-level Mechas. Mechas that they had seen, touched, and driven before were all Low-level Mechas, so—

These bumpkins, seeing so many High-level Mechas in the Eagle Space Station, each of them turned into Liu Laolao entering the Grand View Garden, full of wonder and amazement.

Although they couldn’t drive those High-level Mechas inside the training room, everyone could still touch them and satisfy their curiosity.

Ji You was staring at the 8-star Blade right in front of her, drooling non-stop!

Beautiful!

So beautiful!

The Blade in the Star Network, compared to the Blade in reality, is just like the difference between a concubine and the Empress!

The Empress’s grandeur, elegance, grace, and style, where can a concubine compare?

Ji You was completely captivated by the charm of the 8-star Blade.
