The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Chapter 970: Chapter 970: Charging Pole

Liu Fufeng’s words directly plunged the atmosphere of the whole scene to a freezing point. Chu Jiaojiao, Yue Qiguang, Yue Qiyuan, even the always lazy Sheng Qingyan, and the honest-looking Shen Changqing all flashed a hint of disbelief on their faces at this moment!

[They’re all so weak~]

[They’re all so weak~]

[They’re all so weak~]

...

These five words echoed like a tape recorder repeatedly, endlessly cycling through the minds of the crowd...

The atmosphere was plunged into a mysterious stagnation...

Chu Jiaojiao, Sheng Qingyan, Yue Qiguang, Yue Qiyuan, Shen Changqing looked at Liu Fufeng as if they wanted to slice him into pieces with their piercing stare!

Liu Fufeng’s pupils contracted slightly, his body couldn’t help but start to tremble...

At this moment, Ji You laughed heartily and said, ”Oh dear! The kid is just naive. He’s a straightforward child who never knows how to lie. You all, don’t take it to heart with a child.”

Chu Jiaojiao and others: ”...”

Yue Qiguang snorted and said, ”Don’t hold me back, I’ll beat up every brat like him I see!”

Chu Jiaojiao: ”Ahem... I’ll pretend I didn’t see anything.”

Yue Qiyuan: ”Brother, go ahead, give it your all, make him feel the pain.”

Shen Changqing: ”I... I know nothing.”

Sheng Qingyan: ”Ah Guang, maybe take some weapons with you? I’ve got a Tie Chui here you could borrow, the kind that can shatter skulls...”

Liu Fufeng heard this, his shoulders trembled even more fiercely, he naturally, little by little, moved behind Ji You...

Ji You jumped aside and laughed, ”I’m not shielding him. If you want to beat him, go ahead and do it.”

Liu Fufeng: ”...”

Liu Fufeng’s body stiffened up instantly.

Yue Qiguang rubbed his fist, a sinister smile appeared at the corner of his mouth...

”...” Liu Fufeng opened his mouth and said, ”Don’t... don’t come over, otherwise, I’ll curse you.”

Yue Qiguang rolled his eyes, ”You think I’m scared of your curse?”

Liu Fufeng took a deep breath and said, ”Once cursed, you’ll be unlucky.”

Yue Qiguang waved his fist, ”It’s the interstellar era, and you’re still fooling with superstitions? I don’t believe in nonsense; I believe in my fists.”

Liu Fufeng’s eyes rolled back and forth, saying, ”My curse is very effective, if you don’t believe...” His voice suddenly caught, ”There’s a Black Gold Rat behind you.”

Yue Qiguang showed a sinister smile, ”Trying to trick me? I’ve had acting training—”

Liu Fufeng’s pupils tightened, his lips enlarged, ”2 seconds.”

The words fell—

’Hoo—’

A gust of wind attacked from behind. Yue Qiguang just sensed something off, continued to try to dodge, but the claws of the Black Gold Rat already swung over. Yue Qiguang raised his hand, faced this claw directly—

”Bang!”

A flash of white light, a Big Chopper cleaved over, blocking between Yue Qiguang’s arms.

In the blink of an eye, the Black Gold Rat was sliced in half, and with a clang, it fell to the floor.

Ji You raised the Big Chopper, cursing loudly, ”Yue Qiguang, are you a pig? No crisis awareness at all?”

Yue Qiguang: ”...”

Ji You kicked away the Black Gold Rat’s corpse, still seething inwardly, ”Clashing hands with a Black Gold Rat? If you’re so capable, why not use your head? Wouldn’t it be better to consume that pighead in one use?”

Listening to Ji You’s scolding, Yue Qiguang’s face turned red, but Ji You’s words were all reasonable. Although Yue Qiguang felt more stifled the more he listened, he didn’t dare utter a single word.

Ji You wielded the machete and shouted, ”Everyone, perk up and always be ready to counter a Black Gold Rat swarm attack!”

Chu Jiaojiao and others shouted back, ”Yes.”

Ji You glanced sideways at Liu Fufeng, saying, ”You—as a weakling, have some self-awareness, okay? Just hide inside the spaceship, stop standing around outside. Later, when the fighting starts, I can’t guarantee you won’t get hurt.”

Liu Fufeng heard this, somewhat unwilling.

Ji You said, ”Go!”

Liu Fufeng stood aside, hesitated for a few seconds, feeling somewhat unhappy, but still obediently boarded the spaceship.

Ji You squinted, turned to Yue Qiguang, ”You also stand guard at your post.”

”Ahem...” He was a strongman, yet he hadn’t reacted just now and was actually protected by Ji You. Thinking about this, Yue Qiguang’s face flushed red—

With shame.

Yue Qiguang coughed lightly, said nothing, and obediently entered the spaceship cockpit.

Ji You then asked Shen Changqing, ”Classmate Shen Changqing, report the progress.”

Shen Changqing said, ”Smoothly, expected to complete within 10 minutes.”

Ji You heard this and relaxed a little.

The ground had collapsed into a pit, black all over inside, with some claw marks around the edge from the Black Gold Rats. Deeper areas were pitch black and almost staring into the abyss.

Ji You furrowed his brows, asking Sheng Qingyan next to him, ”Spicy Eye, do you think this underground hole was here originally, or was it dug by the Black Gold Rats?”

Sheng Qingyan lay on the ground, constantly monitoring the surroundings with the monitor. When he heard Ji You’s question, he found it a bit boring and casually replied, ”How could there be a hole that deep? It must have been dug when constructing the Dock for military defenses.”

Ji You thought there was some truth to this as well.

Then.

Ji You held the energy great machete, always keeping an eye on the surroundings.

The Black Gold Rat that suddenly jumped out to attack Yue Qiguang didn’t come from the collapsed pit but rather emerged from another corner. At that time, Yue Qiguang was standing beside a Flying Device-exclusive charging pole. These poles, which have built-in charging systems, were installed along with the construction of the Dock. Bee Head Star isn’t completely abandoned; humans have only retreated to maintain its planet ecology. Therefore, the charging system here still sees periodic maintenance by the Alliance’s military forces stationed here, so this small energy supply station remains intact and usable.

Along the way, the stationed forces patrolling here can recharge when encountering energy shortages in flying devices.

Logically, the energy supply station at the Dock is intact and regularly maintained, so Black Gold Rats shouldn’t appear...why did a Black Gold Rat scuttle out from a charging pole?

Ji You saw it clearly; the Black Gold Rat crawled out from the charging pole.

This problem only suggests that—this charging pole is currently malfunctioning.

Ji You, holding the machete and carrying an energy particle gun on her back, slowly walked towards this energy pillar not far away.

step.

steps.

steps.

...

Ji You’s steps were steady, her grip on the knife handle remained firm and unshaken. She stopped and looked at the charging pole in front—
