The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Chapter 1631: Chapter 1631: An Idea

Ji You didn’t just think about it, she audaciously spoke it out. When everyone heard she wanted to raise one of those frog egg monsters, they were stunned into silence by her bold idea.

The scene was quiet for a moment.

Ji You grinned and chuckled, ”What’s with those expressions? Don’t you think my idea is brilliant?”

”It’s indeed brilliant,” He Bi rolled his eyes and said, ”Only a genius could come up with such an idea. But... As brilliant as the idea is, if it’s not feasible, it’s just nonsense.”

Ji You disagreed slightly and said, ”Why wouldn’t it be feasible? Maybe it’ll be possible in the future.”

”Future?” He Bi sneered and asked, ”How far in the future? 1 year, 10 years, or 100 years?”

Ji You wasn’t discouraged at all; instead, she looked excited and said, ”I believe it is controllable. We might as well come up with a conception now, so it will be possible to achieve later.”

Seeing her enthusiasm, He Bi didn’t want to dampen her spirits, so he threw another question, ”Do you know what this monster is?”

”What is it?” Ji You asked curiously.

Chu Jiaojiao and Yue Qiyuan couldn’t help but lean in, staring at He Bi. Even in the communicator, Shen Changqing, Yue Qiguang, Sheng Qingyan, and Liu Fufeng were listening intently.

Then, He Bi shrugged and said, ”I don’t know either.”

Everyone: ”...”

Ji You rolled her eyes and said, ”You don’t know, so why act all serious? I thought you actually knew.”

He Bi raised his hand and touched the miniature camera on his wrist, saying, ”I recorded it. After we return, I’ll ask around, maybe someone knows.”

Ji You looked surprised and widened her eyes, ”Senior, you recorded it? Recorded it?” Her tone was filled with disbelief, ”In such a dangerous environment, you still remembered to record a video and upload it to Star Network to attract followers?”

He Bi: ”...”

He Bi raised his hand and tapped Ji You, scolding, ”Stop talking nonsense. This stuff can’t be randomly shared. It’s a task assigned by the university; we need to collect biotic samples from the space rift while ensuring our safety...”

The Universe is vast and boundless, with a myriad of species. There are many unexplored regions and countless species not yet documented by humans. Thus, there are too many places and things humanity needs to explore... Maybe among them lies a solution to the Star Beast problem.

Collecting biological information is a task given to everyone entering the space rift this time.

Of course, Ji You knew this, she just liked to joke and tease others a bit. After hearing Senior He Bi’s words, Ji You raised her hand, scratched her head, and with a grin said, ”I also recorded it, and I filmed this monster devouring hundreds of Star Beasts.”

In the next second.

Chu Jiaojiao, Yue Qiyuan, Shen Changqing... Everyone spoke in unison, ”Funny enough, we all filmed it.”

”...” He Bi heard this and felt both amused and speechless.

This group is even more audacious than himself, truly not easy to manage.

Just as He Bi was about to caution them, suddenly the ground started to shake, He Bi’s expression turned serious as he raised his hand immediately and said, ”Old Yellow Bull is moving.”

The Two-headed Bull, which had been still like a zombie bull, suddenly started moving. And it didn’t just move tentatively; it dashed out crazily as if it were chasing students rushing to the cafeteria after mealtime, fearing to be left behind!

He Bi tightly held onto the rope in his hand: ”Everyone, stay alert and don’t fall off.”

Ji You, Chu Jiaojiao, and Yue Qiyuan also quickly grabbed the rope at that moment, the rope hung on Old Yellow Bull’s horn, swaying so fast that it almost flung Ji You and the others off.

Shen Changqing was always observing the surroundings, and the moment Old Yellow Bull moved, he swiftly controlled the spaceship to stabilize its position and run along.

The passageway was like a large funnel at the time, with their position being at the cone-shaped opening. Once Old Yellow Bull started moving, it immediately rushed into that opening.

None of them hesitated, they all followed and charged ahead.

Old Yellow Bull was moving fast, and nearing the exit, the passage walls became narrower and narrower, so narrow that Old Yellow Bull needed to contract its abdomen tightly to barely pass through.

Ji You couldn’t help but ask, ”Old Bull, your body is so massive, it’s not necessarily a good thing, have you considered reducing your size?”

That question was baffling. Yue Qiyuan rolled his eyes and said, ”It’s grown to be this size, how can it reduce its size?”

Ji You promptly said, ”Easy, I’ll cut some meat off, wouldn’t that reduce it?”

Yue Qiyuan: ”...”

Old Yellow Bull was running when it heard Ji You’s words. It happened to understand the whole meaning and suddenly, Old Yellow Bull’s body couldn’t help but shudder.

As it slightly shuddered, the muscles on its back contracted intensely, causing He Bi, Chu Jiaojiao, and Yue Qiyuan, sitting on it, to feel like their butts were sliding and almost fall off.

Yue Qiyuan opened his mouth and cursed, ”Can’t you say these kinds of things at a more appropriate time?”

Since it was intentional, Ji You reacted faster than the others; leveraging the muscle contraction on the bull’s back, she bounced up immediately, raising her arms high to touch the passage wall.

About the feel of the passage wall, well?

Though it seemed intangible, once touched, Ji You realized it felt a bit icy, cold, and slippery, akin to touching a scaleless fish.

Ji You frowned slightly and said, ”Hey, why does the passage wall feel like this? It doesn’t seem right.”

”What?” He Bi jumped up instantly.

”What?” Yue Qiyuan was also startled, ”Did you touch it?”

”Ha?” Chu Jiaojiao widened her eyes, ”Ji You, what’s the texture?” Then, Chu Jiaojiao raised her head looking at the passage wall not far above her with a face filled with eagerness.

Although Yue Qiyuan despised Ji You, he couldn’t resist rubbing his fingers, clearly very interested.

He Bi quickly said, ”Everyone, stop moving.”

Chu Jiaojiao paused.

”One by one,” He Bi said, ”I’ll go first.”

After saying this.

He Bi didn’t need the assistance of muscle contraction from the bull’s back, he leapt up and touched the passage wall.

With He Bi as the demonstration, Chu Jiaojiao and Yue Qiyuan also touched it one after another.

Then.

The four sat down, exchanged glances, and Ji You said, ”I have a bold idea.”ℴ
