The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Chapter 1040: Chapter 1040: You Can’t See Me

Ji You suddenly stood up in the control room, and beside him, Yue Qiguang and Yue Qiyuan frowned. Yue Qiguang shouted, ”No! You can’t go!”

Ji You had already picked up the knife, ready to set off.

Yue Qiguang struggled to jump off the rescue bed, saying, ”You fool number 4444, with your poor physical strength, how could you possibly resist a swarm of Black Thorn Bees above Level 5? Let me go! Of everyone here, only I am suitable for close combat.”

Yue Qiyuan and Shen Changqing have strong spiritual power, but their physical strength is slightly weaker, and close combat has never been their forte. Sheng Qingyan is very well-rounded in both spiritual power and physical strength, but right now, the injury on his neck is particularly serious, and the fort’s medical supplies are scarce, so his injury can’t be healed immediately. Thus, after considering comprehensively, Yue Qiguang believed he was the most suitable person to go underground.

Even though one of his hands couldn’t be used, wasn’t there still the other hand?

The struggling Yue Qiguang was suddenly pressed down on the head by a hand. He angrily raised his head, turned his face, and saw it was 4444 Ji You. Yue Qiguang frowned and said, ”Idiot, let go!”

Ji You stared at him, with no room for negotiation in his eyes, said, ”You stay here. I am going.”

Yue Qiguang cursed, ”Weakling, you look like you’ll kick the bucket just from breathing. You’re going? You’re just going to deliver food!”

Ji You patted the gun strapped to his waist and said indifferently, ”The weakling you mentioned just hit every shot and killed 7 giant Black Thorn Bees. And you?”

Yue Qiguang: ”...”

That stung.

Ji You turned to Yue Qiyuan and said, ”Watch your brother. Until Jiaojiao and I return, hold down the fort, and don’t go out.”

Yue Qiyuan nodded, ”Go without worry.”

Yue Qiyuan didn’t compete to go underground like his brother, because apart from himself, others on the ground could only provide half or one-third combat strength, so he must stay to guard the positions.

By staying, he allowed 4444 to focus on assisting Chu Jiaojiao.

Ji You threw the words down, holding a Big Saber, ready to head to the tunnel entrance. At this time, Liu Fufeng, who was curled up in the corner folding paper, suddenly stood up and followed behind Ji You.

Ji You walked a step.

Liu Fufeng walked a step.

Ji You: ”???”

Liu Fufeng said, ”Classmate Ji You, I’ll go with you. I’ll protect you.”

Ji You: ”???”

Liu Fufeng seriously said, ”You didn’t hear wrong. I said I’ll protect you, not you protect me.”

Ji You said, ”Move away quickly, I don’t have time.”

Every second couldn’t be wasted.

Just thinking about Chu Jiaojiao being in great danger made Ji You anxious. The Light Computer was unexpectedly blocked. One must know the Light Computer’s signal is spread throughout the eight star systems, unless in special areas like the Special Combat Zone, Government Secret Department, or undeveloped unknown areas... Only then might there be equipment specifically blocking the Light Computer signal, or the Light Computer network hadn’t been laid out there...

The Black Gold Ore on Bee Head Star was already completely mined out and had no more value, but it’s located within the radiation range of Jiao Space Station, an area that needed military defense, so the signal should be very smooth here.

Suddenly cut off?

What’s the reason?

With just a thought, Ji You felt a wave of panic inside. She coldly said, ”You can come with me, but I definitely won’t protect your safety, even if it affects the relationship between the Alliance and your country.”

Liu Fufeng was silent for a while, then raised his head, seriously giving Ji You a look, and said, ”I’ll go.”

Ji You said, ”...Okay.”

Liu Fufeng was slightly surprised: ”You’re really letting me go?”

Ji You already jumped into the tunnel opening, wrapping ropes around her body, and said, ”I trust you’re not one to speak without reasoning.”

Hearing this, Liu Fufeng was stunned for a moment, then he hardly hesitated before jumping in after.

Ji You urgently rushed in the direction where Chu Jiaojiao disappeared, and Liu Fufeng suddenly said, ”Classmate Ji You, I think she should be over here.”

Pointing to the spot on Ji You’s right hand side, he seriously said, ”Over there, I feel something is off, the entire underground’s human-built defensive structures and facilities have completely collapsed. From this direction, I... I seem to feel Chu Jiaojiao’s presence.”

Ji You followed Liu Fufeng’s hand, staring in that direction.

Then.

Ji You didn’t hesitate, directly changing direction, rushing toward where Liu Fufeng pointed.

Seeing Ji You’s actions so rapidly, and having no doubt about his judgement, in the darkness, Liu Fufeng’s exquisite and beautiful face suddenly lit up and then he followed.

Wearing the protective clothing, with Liu Fufeng the super rich providing protective clothing equipped with an air purification system, facing the stench underground, Ji You and Liu Fufeng almost seemed to be in an odorless environment. Soon, the two passed through one tunnel after another. As they were about to proceed further, they suddenly felt a dangerous aura, Ji You stopped, drawing out the energy gun from her waist.

The approaching Black Thorn Bees, frenziedly flapping their wings, were about to reach Ji You and Liu Fufeng when Liu Fufeng suddenly raised his hand, making claw gestures: ”You can’t see me, you can’t see me, you can’t see me.”

Ji You: ”...”

Does that work?

This has got to be a joke, right?

The next second, the Black Thorn Bees flashed their wings, directly passed in front of them as if they really couldn’t see the two.

Ji You: ”...”

Ji You opened her mouth wide, ”Damn! What ability do you have?”

Liu Fufeng retracted his hand, wiping the sweat from his forehead heavily, said, ”Well... it’s not very strong, this is called Ultimate Hypnosis.”

Ji You gazed at the departing Black Thorn Bees, the two were just talking, and that Black Thorn Bee didn’t seem to notice them at all, full on shock! She always knew Liu Fufeng’s spiritual power was strong, so strong it could explode anytime, killing herself and those around her, hence the Little Golden Dragon constantly reminded Ji You to not get too close to Liu Fufeng.

But this—

After truly realizing the strength of Liu Fufeng’s ability, Ji You was completely envious!

If only she mastered a bit of it, hypnotizing enemies to fight would be free reign for slaughter.

If even stronger, hypnotizing a swarm of enemies at once, during the harvesting of those heads, she’d just need to bring a reaping knife, making the process like harvesting rice or wheat—simple!

The more she thought, the more excited Ji You became.

She glared at Liu Fufeng: ”Can... can you teach me?”

Liu Fufeng gazed in the direction of the Black Thorn Bees, gently patting his chest, said, ”That... that was scary! Luckily, it worked.” After speaking, hearing Ji You’s question, Liu Fufeng frowned slightly and said, ”I wouldn’t recommend learning, it’s very hard.”

Ji You said, ”I want to learn no matter how difficult.”

Liu Fufeng pointed to his head, said, ”Head needs to be opened many times.”

Ji You: ”...”
