The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

When Sheng Qingyan revealed the item in his hand, Ji You’s eyes widened instantly!

Sheng Qingyan frowned slightly and spoke to Ji You, ”Oh, poor dead, do you want to try this? It’s the only thing left unchecked.” He gently stretched out his hand and pushed the item slightly in front of Ji You...

Ji You felt her heart beating heavily.

Fiercely beating.

Madly beating.

...

She pressed her hand lightly to her chest, trying her best to remain calm, saying, ”I’ll try it.”

This is the protective film used by Ying Tu to wrap the Space Button. It is a layer of smooth, milky white gel-like substance, somewhat like rubber but much more transparent...

Ji You’s hand slowly, slowly reached over...

At the same time, the Six Strands were madly howling: [That’s it! Eat it! Eat it! Eat it!]

Ji You frowned and chastised them: ”Calm down, everyone.”

This is a special item, it must be looked at carefully, otherwise, if not examined carefully, wouldn’t it be missed when encountered later? What if this isn’t the only piece, and there are others?

Can I buy it from someone else?

Maybe it’s a material, can I create it using other methods?

...

In an instant, many thoughts bubbled up in Ji You’s mind. She was very excited and thrilled. Yue Qiyuan, Yue Qiguang, Shen Changqing, Sheng Qingyan, Liu Fufeng, Xiao Liu, and other warriors... everyone seeing her expression suddenly understood:

—That’s it.

Sheng Qingyan tilted his head: ”Is it???”

Ji You nodded vigorously.

Upon hearing this, everyone’s eyes lit up suddenly, and they all gathered around, staring intently at the nail-sized gel-like object, while Ji You’s hand already extended towards Sheng Qingyan.

A bit.

A bit.

A bit.

...

Then, under the tense gaze of the crowd, Ji You finally grasped the item. Upon touching it, she felt a cool sensation, much like the skin of a watermelon freshly taken out of the refrigerator, cold, with droplets of water seemingly on it...

Droplets of water?

Ji You paused, glanced down, and saw that the originally gel-like protective film was transforming into droplets of water at a visibly rapid pace...

Drip~

Drip~

Drip~

Ji You: ”What the f***!!!”

Others: ”What the f***!!!”

”Quickly find something to catch it!” Yue Qiguang yelled, while Sheng Qingyan, Shen Changqing, and Yue Qiyuan had already taken out water bottles, ready to hand them over when Liu Fufeng quickly placed a ladle under Ji You’s clenched fist.

Sheng Qingyan and others were surprised, Liu Fufeng said: ”I think you should use your bowls to catch it, mine... mine is an iron bowl, it rusts, rust leads to chemical reactions.”

Sheng Qingyan and others: ”...”

Liu Fufeng’s lips curled with slight embarrassment: ”It’s my Mengmeng’s food bowl, he likes iron, couldn’t find another bowl temporarily.”

Sheng Qingyan had already replaced Liu Fufeng’s bowl with his own water bottle, but everyone was too focused on the item to pay attention to what bowl it was, all nervously staring at Ji You’s hand and the protective film that gradually softened and liquefied...

Drip~

Drip~

Drip~

...

This crisp sound captivated everyone’s attention, all nervously and anxiously waiting. Ji You’s face suddenly darkened, then increasingly darkened...

Because—

When her hand touched the special item, the Iron Plate that had disappeared from the Spirit Space suddenly reappeared, it was covered with cracks all over, looked pitch-black without any luster, and as soon as the Six Spiritual Threads saw the Iron Plate appear, sirens went off, but before they could react, the special item was sucked away by the Iron Plate.

Gone!

In the blink of an eye, it was gone.

The Six Spiritual Threads were all stunned! Each with wide-open mouths, waving their tails, eyes full of shock, stiffened collectively into statues...

second.

seconds.

seconds.

...

A long time passed.

A long time passed.

The Six Spiritual Threads did not move...

The Iron Plate consumed the special item entirely, not a single residue was left. In an instant, it was about to disappear—

Six Strands: [Stop right there!]

Would the Iron Plate listen?

The surface cracks slightly repaired, and the Iron Plate gained some luster, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye!

Six Strands: [....]

Strong as the Boss, suddenly burst into tears: [It... it’s just a bastard!]

The Second started to wipe tears: [It’s just a bastard!]

The Third’s tears fell relentlessly: [Didn’t leave us even scraps, too excessive! Too excessive!]

The Fourth was already too sad, almost unable to speak: [I... I... Sisi... I... don’t want to live anymore...]

Old Five was different from the other threads, it was alone, secretly wiping tears: [So excessive, so excessive, so excessive...]

The Sixth cried loudly: [Bad guy! Bastard! Scoundrel! Egg! Duck egg! Goose egg! Stinky egg...]

...

The Spiritual Threads were too heartbroken, originally Ji You’s face had been dark as a pot, but seeing each of the Spiritual Threads like this, somehow, she suddenly couldn’t help but laugh.

The Boss trembled all over: [Master, you’re actually laughing!]

The Second, the Third: [So excessive oh!]

The Fourth: [Sisi doesn’t want to live anymore, Master’s hugs and kisses don’t work anymore, only the special item can save Sisi...]

Old Five: [Master, will we have anything to eat in the future?]

The Sixth: [Master, can’t you do something about Iron?]

”Cough cough...” Ji You cleared her throat, if she could manage the Iron Plate, would she have waited until now? But since the threads were incredibly heartbroken, Ji You couldn’t let them lose their passion for life, so she put on a serious face and said, ”Don’t panic! If there’s one special item, there must be a second, a third...”

Six Strands simultaneously spoke out: [Lies!]

Ji You: ”Cough cough...”

These days, being a master isn’t easy, the threads aren’t easy to fool either.

Ji You put on a stern face, her eyes said: [Who is your master, don’t you know yet? I’m the future monarch of the Peak of the Universe, the pet of the Heavenly Dao, the son of fortune of the Universe! Still the heroine of this world! How can I not find another one?]

Six Strands turned their backs collectively, uninterested in the Master’s nonsense.

In reality.

Ji You darkened her face, everyone else watched her face nervously without missing any fluctuations—

Then, Shen Changqing asked: ”Ji You, do you feel anything? Like spiritual power enhanced, clearance improved? Or, any other unusual sensations work too...”

Ji You didn’t answer but instead stared at Liu Fufeng’s bowl, Sheng Qingyan’s water bottle... the few droplets inside, asking: ”Just this little?”

Sheng Qingyan, Liu Fufeng nodded, Liu Fufeng added: ”Didn’t lose a drop, I caught it immediately.”

Ji You: ”Oh—”

Facing everyone’s nervous gaze, Ji You kept a straight face, saying: ”I... I feel a bit of a headache.”

Everyone: ”...”

Ji You: ”And chest pain.”

Everyone: ”...”
