In his perception, Kong Yichun and Kong Yixia had luckily discovered the group of space pirates, who were now tracking them.
Ding Junji, Lei Qianjun, Ma Lie, Shen Huanli, and Song Yang have each discovered the devices that the space pirates placed in various parts of the spaceship and are studying how to remove them.
Wang Rong keenly noticed the passengers' unusual behavior and then discovered the star beast floating in the air. He wanted to start with the star beast to find the researcher who released it.
Everyone treated this operation like a competition, and no one wanted to be second best, so everyone worked very hard.
But they will soon discover that they cannot create a closed loop on their own. Time is of the essence, and only cooperation can lead to a win-win situation.
Ruan Mingchu pulled his attention away from his mental powers and asked Mu Yu, "I need to find the researcher now, shall we go together?"
Pastoral metaphor: ...
"What kind of researcher?"
Oh dear, Ruan Mingchu slapped his forehead, realizing he'd forgotten. Mu Yu hadn't told him to reveal the questions, so he hadn't.
He told Mu Yu the whole story.
Mu Yu's focus shifted: "Did you discover everything using your mental power?"
“Yes,” Ruan Mingchu enthusiastically promoted, “It’s very convenient. As long as you are powerful enough, you can know everything happening in the world without leaving home.”
Of course, there are dangers too. If someone disrupts your mental energy, or attacks your physical body while you are focusing your attention on your mental energy to perceive the outside world, you could easily die.
Mu Yu seemed to be deep in thought.
"Let's go find that researcher."
If he hadn't happened to sense the researcher's diary, it would be hard to believe that someone who seemed so honest would do something like using the lives of thousands of innocent people for experiments.
The invisible star beasts in the air had changed several ways of flapping their wings, and the entire spaceship was in chaos, with arguments heard everywhere.
Staff members tried to put out the fire, but to little avail; one unlucky staff member even had his forehead broken by a passenger.
The timid and trouble-averse went back to their rooms and locked their doors, but most people were influenced by the Star Beasts and started causing trouble all over the spaceship.
The researcher worked in the monitoring room. He had been hired as a temporary worker to watch the surveillance footage and report any problems promptly.
This is a great place where you can see all parts of the spaceship and appreciate all of his works.
The staff working in the monitoring room had already been knocked unconscious by the researchers and thrown into a corner, piled up together.
When Ruan Mingchu opened the door to the monitoring room, the researcher was holding a wine glass, swirling the red wine inside, and enjoying the drama unfolding on the screen.
His and Mu Yu's arrival did not arouse the researcher's vigilance. After all, he was only focused on watching the show and it was normal that he did not notice the two unfortunate little insects crawling over.
The researcher raised his wine glass: "Good afternoon, gentlemen. Would you like to join me for a drink?"
His smiling face made him look exceptionally kind.
You can't judge a book by its cover.
Mu Yu felt an itch to punch him hard and see if he could still laugh.
Ruan Mingchu pressed Mu Yu's shoulder and shook his head.
They came here just in case, not to solve a problem.
Researcher Qin Sheng, thinking that the two were intimidated by his domineering aura and dared not make any rash moves, extended another invitation: "It's very interesting, won't you come and enjoy it together?"
Ruan Mingchu's lips twitched, and he pulled Mu Yu to sit down next to Qin Sheng.
Qin Sheng smiled with satisfaction.
Qin Sheng picked up the black box and began operating the buttons. He had had enough of this petty stunt; he needed blood and violence to feast his eyes on.
However, three minutes passed and nothing happened; the screen remained unchanged.
Qin Sheng's smile froze on his face.
what is going on?!
Why did it suddenly stop working?
With a "thud," the black box was smashed onto the wall and table by Qin Sheng, but he quickly picked it up again.
This is his prized possession that brought him fame and fortune; he can't throw it away, he can't throw it away.
Anger and pity were intertwined on his face, making him look particularly comical.
Mu Yu, who has a high threshold for laughter, still supported Qin Sheng and burst out laughing.
Qin Sheng's face contorted with rage. "What are you laughing at? I was hoping to broaden your horizons, but I'm in a bad mood right now, so you'll have to make do and let me vent my anger."
As a frail male Beta researcher, it was naturally impossible for him to knock out so many burly spaceship staff members on his own.
As Qin Sheng finished speaking, his shadow began to tumble, and soon an irregularly shaped object, completely black and with no visible features, emerged from it.
The stealth star beast was someone else's research result that Qin Sheng stole, while this dark, indistinct thing was Qin Sheng's own research.
Combining his innate skills with those of star beasts possessing similar abilities, along with various materials, it was born by chance.
Normally, they hide in Qin Sheng's shadow, but will come out when Qin Sheng summons them and obey his commands.
Qin Sheng laughed wildly, "If you beg for mercy, I might let you die a little less painfully."
But Ruan Mingchu and Mu Yu's expressions were perfectly synchronized; they both looked at Qin Sheng as if he were an idiot, remaining remarkably calm.
They didn't even beg for mercy, let alone show the slightest fear.
Enraged, Qin Sheng shouted, "Baby, get him! Strip that Omega naked! I'm going to kill him right in front of this Alpha!"
Upon hearing this, Ruan Mingchu looked down at his clothes—a plain T-shirt and cropped pants he had taken from Mu Yu's house—and wondered what had gotten into Qin Sheng.
But it's okay, removing his eyes won't bother him anymore.
Ruan Mingchu almost laughed at his own wild imagination, but Mu Yu next to him was already furious.
The greatest provocation to an Alpha is to covet his Omega.
The ignorant fish still sees Ruan Mingchu as her future Omega, so of course she wants to protect him.
Following Qin Sheng's command, his precious treasure swiftly moved towards Ruan Mingchu.
A deep red glow also appeared on Mu Yu's fist, and in a short while, they clashed.
Amid Qin Sheng's smug expression, the shadow monster's body shattered into pieces and fled back into Qin Sheng's shadow.
Qin Sheng's smile froze on his face.
Did you think that was the end of it?
No.
In her anger, Yu Yu didn't hold back and beat Qin Sheng half to death on her first attempt.
It was Ruan Mingchu who stopped it in time.
"No, he still has a use."
Mu Yu grunted in agreement and kicked Qin Sheng into a corner.
The dying Qin Sheng hadn't even realized what was going on. His grand ambition was about to begin, so what was happening now?
dream?
Yes, yes, he must be dreaming. When he wakes up, he will still be the overlord who controls the lives of countless people.
Qin Sheng endured the pain while trying to hypnotize himself.
In a daze, I overheard Ruan Mingchu and Mu Yu's conversation. I couldn't catch my breath and fainted from anger.
Ruan Mingchu and Mu Yu sat down in front of the monitor screen again.
Ruan Mingchu asked, "What's wrong? Are you a little irritable? Are you in your most vulnerable period?"
Just like the menstrual cycle of women among ancient humans, interstellar Alphas also have susceptible periods that make them feel annoyed and uncomfortable.
An Alpha in their vulnerable period is like a powder keg about to explode; one wrong move and it could blow up everyone around it.
Mu Yu shook his head hurriedly. After a while, just when Ruan Mingchu thought the topic was over, Mu Yu slowly said, "He doesn't respect you."
Is it because he doesn't respect me that Mu Yu is angry? Equating the two, a strange emotion rose in Ruan Mingchu's heart.
On the screen, Kong Yichun and Kong Yixia subdued the group of space pirates that the two were following, but were discovered by their accomplices while they were finishing up.
The space pirate bluntly stated that they had planted many bombs on the spaceship, and if Kong Yichun and Kong Yixia dared to make any rash moves, they would all go to the Western Paradise together.
The two sides reached a stalemate.
Ding Junji's path will likely lead him behind the space pirates. If he discovers this in time and cooperates with the Kong brothers, the three of them can achieve a breakthrough.
However, Ding Junji and Kong Yixia had a conflict; the two had been rivals for a whole year during middle school.
What will Ding Junji choose?
The removal of the devices installed by the space pirates was not going smoothly. Lei Qianjun, Ma Lie, Shen Huanli and Song Yang had almost found all the devices and marked them, but none of them were able to remove them.
Forcibly demolishing it could cause an explosion.
Of the team members, only the Kong brothers are mechanical engineers. Would they be willing to ask the Kong brothers for help?
Once Kong Yichun and Kong Yixia are involved, they will be the ones who make the biggest contribution.
The device's timer has started ticking, counting down to one hour.
No one can be sure what will happen an hour from now.
Wang Rong carried insecticide spray around killing the invisible star beasts, but there were still many star beasts in the air. Without eliminating the source, these things could not be completely eradicated.
He did discover the source, but he couldn't enter the place on his own, so he decided to try using insecticide spray.
As expected, Wang Rong sighed deeply.
How will he choose his next move?
Should he ask his teammates for help, or go out and try on his own?
Ruan Mingchu, like a chatterbox, analyzed their situation on the screen for Mu Yu.
Mu Yu's expression was solemn, and he occasionally responded with a couple of words.
In reality, my mind wanders to the heavens, letting out a deep cry: these things are so annoying.
