The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Chapter 876: Chapter 876: Accepting a Mission

One punch, one punch...

A while later.

Ji You slumped in the corner, unable to move anymore, only her mouth could still twitch a bit: ”Jiaojiao...help me up, I can still fight!”

”Ji You, please... don’t look at me with that face... I’m... I’m scared.” Although Chu Jiaojiao could still swing her fists and could completely finish off the limp Ji You with one punch, she didn’t want to move because her head hurt too much. It buzzed as if countless bees were stinging her forehead and ants were sucking her brain...

Aside from her aching head, her heart hurt too. Chu Jiaojiao still couldn’t believe she did such a thing to Ji You’s face, unable to accept it, she covered her face and wailed:

”Ouch~”

”Impossible!”

”Absolutely impossible.”

”This is definitely not me...”

...

In the dormitory, Sheng Qingyan had already taken a nap on the sofa and just opened her eyes to find the two finally stopped. She immediately spoke up, sounding disdainful: ”Boring, if I knew it would take this long, I should’ve checked out the Master’s shop.”

Yue Qiyuan was flipping through the news, and upon hearing the cessation, he also looked up at Ji You and Chu Jiaojiao, saying: ”2 hours, 13 minutes, and 17 seconds, Chu Jiaojiao, you’re getting weaker. You spent so much time on a 2B like Ji You, you need reflection.”

Chu Jiaojiao clenched her fists:

It’s not that she got weaker, it’s Ji You who got stronger.

Ji You, under everyone’s radar, silently grew so much stronger! And she herself only improved a little!

Indeed, reflection is needed.

Then Yue Qiyuan turned to Ji You, looking at her face, his mouth twitched slightly: ”That face is really ugly.”

Ji You: ”...”

Yue Qiyuan suddenly said: ”Always fighting, always losing, why bother? Trying to gather a hundred thousand ugly failure faces?”

Ji You: ”...”

On the side, Shen Changqing was dismantling and assembling a mecha model when he suddenly said: ”Always fighting, always losing, there’s nothing wrong, the only mistake is lacking strength. Therefore, you should persist, grit your teeth and persist... I admire Ji You.”

Yue Qiyuan: ”...”

Ji You: ”!!!”

Ji You grinned, chuckled, and glanced at Yue Qiyuan proudly: ”Stupid, heard that? Even an honest person supports me.”

Yue Qiyuan’s mouth twitched: ”I didn’t say I don’t support you. I only said you look too ugly losing every time.”

Ji You pouted: ”You try, try looking un-ugly when losing?”

Chu Jiaojiao scratched her still swelling head, saying: ”Everyone, take a pause, what are your plans for the holiday?”

Once this question was thrown out, the surroundings suddenly fell silent.

Chu Jiaojiao: ”I’ll speak first, my troublesome wife ran off somewhere, I don’t plan to go back, I want to take on tasks at school for training. Anyone wants to join?”

Yue Qiguang spoke first: ”Going home is boring, apart from gaming at home, there’s nothing to do. Might as well earn some points. Anyway, I’m taking tasks.”

Yue Qiyuan also didn’t think much, directly saying: ”Already told the parents, going to take tasks, not going home for the holiday.”

Shen Changqing put down a mecha model leg, earnestly saying to everyone: ”I’m taking tasks too; before coming here, I’ve already searched for tasks suitable for us. Currently, there are several group tasks; here, look...”

Shen Changqing, who is usually sparing with words and known for being pragmatic, had already planned ahead when Chu Jiaojiao mentioned it. In the eyes of everyone, Shen Changqing shared the information he gathered with Ji You and the other four.

Sheng Qingyan glanced at it and immediately jumped up, shouting: ”Don’t count me in, I have my whole holiday planned! I’m going to Love Star, enjoying the sea breeze and seafood at the Aegean Sea during the day and working voluntarily at the Green Glaze Master’s shop at night, hoping to win the Master’s favor and get promoted to a salesperson as soon as possible...”

”Cough...” Ji You said sternly: ”As long as I’m here, you can forget about becoming a salesperson!”

This remark stirred the hornet’s nest, Sheng Qingyan exploded: ”Don’t think being the Master’s salesperson lets you whisper in their ear, not even the Master can refuse me! I’m the Universe’s number one Little Cutie!”

Ji You: ”...”

Ji You declared: ”I’m definitely whispering in their ear.”

Sheng Qingyan: ”...”

Ji You ignored the almost-crying Sheng Qingyan and turned to Shen Changqing, Chu Jiaojiao, Yue Qiyuan, and Yue Qiguang: ”I’m taking tasks too; any thoughts on group tasks?”

Yue Qiguang: ”Anyway, Daddy Universe Strongest, whether solo or together, Daddy’s never afraid.”

Yue Qiyuan glanced at his dumb brother, saying: ”Mom asked me to keep an eye on this fool, afraid he would get himself lost.”

Yue Qiguang: ”...”

Yue Qiguang angrily said: ”Yue Qiyuan, shut up, I won’t take you for a mute.”

Well!

The sibling quarrel, no need to mind, Ji You turned to Chu Jiaojiao and asked: ”Jiaojiao, what about you?”

Seeing Ji You’s swollen face, Chu Jiaojiao covered her heart, feeling both distressed and guilty to the core, suddenly Chu Jiaojiao shouted: ”I’ll pay! I’ll heal your face!”

Ji You: ”...”

Ji You took a deep breath, saying: ”What I meant was whether to take group tasks.”

Chu Jiaojiao clenched her fists, earnestly: ”Wherever Ji You goes, I go. I’m Ji You’s little fool.”

Ji You: ”...”

”Sorry, I can’t accept being a little fool,” Ji You quickly asked Shen Changqing: ”I’m taking group tasks; are you coming?”

Shen Changqing nodded: ”Yes.”

Ji You snapped her fingers, ”Decided! We’re all taking tasks.”

Yue Qiyuan asked: ”Which task to take?”

Yue Qiguang immediately jumped out, filled with confidence: ”Powerful cooperation, of course, the task of slaying Star Beasts! Like finding Xiao Ming’s lost kitty, testing senior students’ lab products, being punching bags for teachers... Yue Qiguang looked down on all of them, he wants to kill Star Beasts! Countless Star Beasts.”

Everyone ignored Yue Qiguang, looked at each other, and Shen Changqing raised his hand, pointing out two tasks, saying: ”This task, the destination is next to Lanyue Star, it’s testing a batch of newly manufactured Low-star Mecha for the mecha manufacturing factory there, difficulty level 1 star. If we work together, we estimate completing it in 5 days.”

Ji You and the others already got their Basic Mecha Driver’s License and qualified to evaluate Low-star Mecha. This task poses no danger, just requires following procedures diligently for assessment and reviewing to complete it.

Upon hearing how simple this task is, Yue Qiguang, Chu Jiaojiao, and others weren’t particularly interested. Chu Jiaojiao asked: ”How’s the second task?”
