The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Chapter 1580: Chapter 1580: Ji You Takes Command

Looking at He Bi’s expression, as if he’d swallowed a fly, Ji You curled the corner of her mouth with a hint of smugness and pride in her tone, saying, ”Considering your various operations have left me and the classmates feeling uneasy and worried as teammates... We’ve all agreed to strip you of your captain’s authority. You may express objections or file a solemn protest, but we will implement a very fair and democratic voting method to unanimously reject your appeal!”

He Bi: ”...”

So, I can protest as much as I want, but if they acknowledge me, it’s their loss?

He Bi took a deep breath, telling himself to stay calm, not to argue with these pesky kids, but to subdue them by force!

Exactly.

Beat them!

Once they’re hurt, even the wildest kids will obediently listen.

Then—

The moment He Bi thought of this, two elbows suddenly came from behind and lifted him up!

He Bi: ”!!!”

Liu Fufeng and Yue Qiyuan stood on either side of Senior He Bi, Yue Qiyuan said, ”Sorry, senior, you better sit quietly.”

Liu Fufeng opened his mouth, hesitated for a few seconds, then said softly, ”Sorry, I’m just here for the count. I didn’t do anything.”

He Bi wanted to curse!

This former Crown Prince of the Empire, does he think I’m a fool? Without his spiritual power shielding technique that’s as tricky as a ghost, how could I have been careless enough to let these brats get close?

He Bi took another deep breath, trying to reason with the gang leader Ji You calmly, saying, ”Don’t mess around, we’re in great danger without entering the space rift, and even if we enter, we can’t let our guard down.”

Ji You squinted her eyes, continuously staring at the flight route map. At this point, the spaceship had entered stealth mode, and in the eyes of most Star Beasts who rely on vision, the entire X-N3848 had completely vanished... But there were still some Star Beasts that didn’t rely on vision, so the spaceship was still within their sight.

Ji You didn’t accelerate but maintained a stable and balanced speed, continuously heading towards the target coordinates—

Upon hearing Senior He Bi’s voice, Ji You said blandly, ”Oh, I’m not messing around; I’m steady. See, the spaceship I’m piloting doesn’t even have a bit of turbulence, unlike yours, senior, your piloting is like driving an excavator, we can’t even play cards in peace.”

He Bi: ”...”

”Nonsense.” He Bi cursed and said, ”Hurry and open the Protective Shield, let me out.”

Upon hearing this, Ji You’s eyes darkened as her voice turned a bit cold, ”This little brother isn’t listening; take him out and throw him away.”

He Bi: ”...”

In the next second.

Liu Fufeng and Yue Qiyuan moved simultaneously, dragging He Bi away forcefully, locking him in the adjacent lounge.

He Bi was a bit dazed!

He wasn’t unable to resist these weak juniors; he was just cautious not to make any reckless moves that might affect Ji You’s subsequent plans, thus impacting the overall situation and everyone’s safety.

He Bi sat on the lounge sofa, calming down, and said in a deep voice to Ji You, ”Transfer the spaceship’s control authority to me.”

Ji You immediately refused, saying, ”No way, once the authority is handed over, there’s no taking it back.”

He Bi raised his hand, rubbing his forehead, ”Let me pilot, you can be the captain if you want.”

Ji You said, ”Alright.”

He Bi was stunned, not expecting Ji You to be so straightforward.

Ji You chuckled softly and said, ”Senior, one tree is not enough to support a mountain, one chopstick breaks easily, but a bunch of chopsticks is hard to break. You are not a hero because we do not allow you to be a hero alone.”

Chu Jiaojiao exclaimed loudly, ”That’s right! Senior He Bi, just obediently assist Ji You.”

Yue Qiguang said, ”Senior, be good.”

Shen Changqing opened his mouth but didn’t make a sound.

Sheng Qingyan couldn’t be bothered to speak, continually aiming and firing the Particle Cannon at the target.

Liu Fufeng and Yue Qiyuan had just kidnapped He Bi, afraid of saying too much and provoking Senior He Bi to retaliate later. It was said that this Senior He Bi was very petty, even more so than a needle’s eye. Ji You wasn’t afraid, but the two of them were quite scared, especially Liu Fufeng, who had only recently cast an omen for himself, which showed that Senior He Bi was the strongest and should be the greatest support on this journey...

In the end—

This omen wasn’t reliable at all.

Apparently, the real dependency should be on Ji You.

Thus, Liu Fufeng pretended he didn’t exist, considering himself an unnoticeable grain of sand.

He Bi listened to the voices of these juniors, raising his eyebrows slightly.

However, Ji You’s voice was no longer joking. Her voice was calm and serious, ”Senior, I’ve already sent the target coordinates to the K-Q75 spaceship, and I’ve connected our spaceship’s communication with it, as well as with two other spaceships. Altogether 4 spaceships have decided to join forces and rush into the space rift.”

He Bi heard this and suddenly laughed, saying, ”Not bad.”

He had considered connecting with others but couldn’t grasp the timing well. The situation here was extremely unique, changing rapidly from one moment to the next, with possible disruptions in communication signals. Thus, He Bi planned to only handle his spaceship and personnel.

And—

The Alliance had instructed the students to take care of themselves after the space rift opened.

So, in reality, He Bi’s strategy and actions weren’t wrong.

He didn’t expect Ji You to seize power suddenly, nor that she would actually manage to connect with the other spaceships.

He Bi sat back in the main pilot’s seat, Ji You in her Combat Suit, standing by his side, speaking coldly, ”Senior He Bi, your task is to advance towards the mission coordinates, and follow my instructions the entire way.”

”...” He Bi... This guy really treated him like an underling, yet he nodded, ”Alright.”

Next.

Ji You opened the communication channel, amplifying her voice to the K-Q75 spaceship and the two ships behind it with a slightly elevated tone, ”Everybody listen up—there is strength in numbers, and it’s the collective power that is the strongest! On this point, I must criticize teammate He Bi. He didn’t properly discuss with his teammates and acted on his own, which is especially wrong. Next time, he may be expelled from team membership!”

He Bi: ”...”

Having lost the captain role, can he even be expelled as a teammate?

He Bi twitched the corner of his mouth, taking another deep breath, telling himself to stay calm. And then, he really calmed down.

Ji You’s voice continued, now extremely serious, ”Around us, there are 2 Level 12, 13 Level 11, and 30 Level 10 Star Beasts, as well as several Level 8 and 9...”
