The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Chapter 986: Chapter 986: Breaking Through the Door

”Woman?” Because of the distance, coupled with the spatial influence, Little Golden Dragon’s voice became weaker and weaker, as if it would vanish the next second.

Knock?

Not knock?

Ji You frowned tightly and said, ”Wait a minute, let me think about it.”

As she spoke, Ji You circled around the pit again. Shen Changqing, Sheng Qingyan, and Chu Jiaojiao didn’t move, silently watching Ji You. After completing a lap, Ji You gritted her teeth and said, ”Knock.”

Little Golden Dragon raised his hand and knocked three times.

The door responded by opening.

Little Golden Dragon lifted his foot to step inside, but suddenly heard Ji You, a hundred meters away, ask, ”How long is it behind the door?”

Little Golden Dragon looked over and said, ”10 meters.”

Ji You said, ”Wait a minute.”

After speaking, Ji You turned around and looked at Shen Changqing, Chu Jiaojiao, and Sheng Qingyan, saying, ”I can’t let my mecha act alone anymore, I’m planning to go in with it.” It was already the sixth door, a little farther, and the naked eye could no longer see Little Golden Dragon’s figure. Other auxiliary detection equipment, like telescopes, couldn’t be used in this enclosed space.

The material surrounding the enclosed space seemed ordinary, but it actually could not only block Light Computer signal transmission but other electronic devices and signal transmission too, even things like telescopes were interfered with to the point of being unusable.

Here—

You can only rely on human eyes to watch and ears to listen...

What’s inside the last door?

Continuing forward, what traps might be hidden?

...

Unknown.

Teacher Mu said that although Little Golden Dragon is just a mecha, it’s the first biological mecha in human history, and currently the only one. It can feel pain, happiness, laugh, cry, experience all forms of joy, anger, sorrow, and pleasure...

It has all of human senses and emotions.

It fears loneliness.

It can feel fear, can be scared...

...

From the moment Little Golden Dragon stepped out to replace Ji You in exploring the path alone, Ji You didn’t want to let it venture alone. To Ji You, the mecha is not just a tool but a comrade.

Exploring the secret chamber was a decision made by Ji You and her companions together, and the consequences shouldn’t be shouldered by Little Golden Dragon alone.

As Ji You finished speaking, Shen Changqing, Sheng Qingyan, and Chu Jiaojiao also made their decisions. The three exchanged a glance, then raised their heads, staring at Ji You, and said in unison, ”Together.”

No fancy words, just a simple two words.

Two words are enough.

Ji You: ”Okay.”

After finishing, the four turned around and lifted their feet to step through the door. The passage was slightly narrow, unable to accommodate four people walking side by side. Sheng Qingyan lazily glanced at Ji You and Chu Jiaojiao and said, ”You two shorties, don’t block the path, just follow behind.”

Chu Jiaojiao was shocked, pointing at herself: ”You say I’m short?”

Sheng Qingyan glanced sideways: ”20 centimeters short, isn’t that considered short?”

The silent Shen Changqing quietly spoke: ”Even 1 centimeter short is short.”

Chu Jiaojiao took a deep breath, clenched her fist: ”You two weak chickens, how many punches have you taken from Sister Jiaojiao since childhood? Forgotten? How about I help you remember now?”

After Chu Jiaojiao finished speaking, Shen Changqing and Sheng Qingyan both looked a bit uneasy. Ji You glanced over curiously, and Sheng Qingyan snorted lightly: ”I was just too lazy to fight with you.”

Shen Changqing echoed: ”Yes.”

Ji You curiously asked: ”Among you three, who is telling the truth? And, Jiaojiao is the classmate who often made Spicy Eye cry, right?”

”Cough...” Sheng Qingyan rolled his eyes and said, ”Lies, too lazy to tell. When did I often cry? Did you see it? Who told you? Did Aqing say it?”

”I... I don’t lie.” Shen Changqing lowered his head, softly: ”I... I didn’t say anything.”

But—

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Changqing’s face turned as red as a monkey’s butt, yet he dared to claim he doesn’t lie?

Ji You was slightly speechless and said, ”Admit it, being weaker than Jiaojiao isn’t anything shameful—”

Chu Jiaojiao listened, her eyes lit up, rarely hearing praise from Ji You. Before she could feel happy, she heard Ji You’s next sentence: ”After all, she’s livestock; people can’t compare with livestock.”

After saying this.

Ji You shook her head, lifted her foot, and very naturally stepped through the door.

Chu Jiaojiao: ”???”

Shen Changqing: ”???”

Sheng Qingyan: ”???”

Chu Jiaojiao quickly chased after: ”Hey, hey, hey... Ji You, wait for me, you agreed to go together, why are you walking so fast?”

In the daze of Sheng Qingyan and Shen Changqing, Ji You and Chu Jiaojiao took the lead and had already moved several meters away. Sheng Qingyan stomped in annoyance: ”Poor dead, oh, she intentionally distracted us to be the first to go.”

”So angry, oh.”

”How can one person be so bad?”

Sheng Qingyan cursed...

Shen Changqing followed closely behind Sheng Qingyan, his expression slightly moved. He kept pace, closely following behind Sheng Qingyan, vigilantly watching his surroundings, and constantly keeping an eye on the movements behind.

Are these doors one-way, only entry not exit?

Or are they two-way, allowing both entry and exit?

...

Currently unknown, danger might be lurking, suddenly surfacing when everyone relaxes. Shen Changqing dared not relax, Chu Jiaojiao dared not relax, Ji You absolutely dared not relax, and even Sheng Qingyan, who always seemed indifferent, was secretly vigilant.

Ji You walked to the side of the seventh door.

Little Golden Dragon stood at the door, always waiting for Ji You and the others. Upon seeing Ji You’s figure, Little Golden Dragon’s tone was full of disdain, saying: ”Woman, told you not to come, oh, why did you come?”

His tone showed considerable disdain, yet his tail was happily wagging non-stop...

Ji You extended her hand, and Little Golden Dragon leaped, landing on Ji You’s hand. Then, his tail stretched, firmly wrapping around her elbow: ”Shall we go in now?”

Ji You stared at the seventh door and began to ponder.

Inside and outside the door are two feelings; staying inside, Ji You could clearly sense her spiritual waves becoming more active, as if something behind the door was attracting Ji You.

Danger?

Ji You squinted her eyes and released her Spiritual Silk Network; the moment the six spiritual threads were released, the thing attracting Ji You grew even stronger.

It’s—

What is it?

Fourth: [Whatever it is, Master, let’s charge—]

Hearing Fourth’s words, Ji You’s tense lips curled: ”Let’s go!”

—Fourth’s cunning suggests there’s probably no substantial danger.
