The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Chapter 1617: Chapter 1617: False Compassion

Old Yellow Bull, upon hearing the swindler’s words, was originally drowsy but suddenly became alert, staring with disbelief at the state it found itself in.

It—

The famous Two-headed Bull, reputedly the undisputed Overlord Bull of the chaotic asteroid belt, lived a life largely devoid of turmoil thanks to its thick hide and tough flesh.

This time, using its hard-earned thick-skinned and tough-flesh abilities, it endured the damage of spatial overlap and survived to this point.

Originally thinking it could rest a bit and recover physical strength before moving on, it unexpectedly encountered a group of humans.

This group of humans is extremely detestable!

The Two-headed Bull opened its mouth and howled, ”Moo—”

The sound was deafening, continually penetrating the eardrums of the present humans; however, the Two-headed Bull felt that its usually effective spiritual attack was ineffective against these human little bugs!

No!

Not completely ineffective, but it had a tiny bit of effect, akin to raindrops on its own skin, merely making a sound with no real harm.

The Two-headed Bull was very angry, furious, and above all, frustrated.

Then.

It ran against the foul stench, continuing its sprint.

It thought, as long as it ran fast enough, it could surely shake off these annoying little bugs.

Unexpectedly—

This group of human little bugs was even more irritating than pesky mosquitoes, impossible to shake off.

Old Yellow Bull was utterly frustrated.

Then.

It kept running, fueled by a single breath.

With a rumbling sound~

While Old Yellow Bull was running through the passage, Ji You and He Bi sat on its head, each grabbing a horn, while the towing rope of X-N3848 was hung on both horns, with He Bi and Ji You responsible for one rope each.

Thus—

Old Yellow Bull ran in front, and the X-N3848 hanging on it did nothing, truly using the Two-headed Bull like a cart-pulling Old Yellow Bull.

This spectacle of the day, if rumored out, would surely cause a massive stir in the human world.

To know, why humans have been fighting star beasts for so long is because most star beasts are irrational beasts, driven only by appetite and instinctive animal nature...

And, these star beasts cannot communicate with humans.

But, is it really so?

The matter of humans communicating with star beasts has been thoroughly researched by the Alliance Research Institute, the Galaxy Empire, the Blue Star United States, and other regions’ top scientists, proving not to be incorrect.

Star beasts indeed cannot communicate with humans.

Whether low-level, high-level, or even ultra-high-level star beasts, none can communicate with humans.

...

This is public information.

Hence, no negotiation possibility exists between humans and star beasts, only war, a life-and-death kind.

...

Ji You and He Bi each managed a rope to hang themselves on the horns, which are the hardest part of the entire bull. Even the Old Yellow Bull itself cannot easily break them, so to drive off these annoying little bugs, it can only think of sneaky ways.

Just as Ji You and He Bi floated out, climbed back via the rope, and hadn’t settled their seats yet, they heard a whistling sound approaching them, causing them to reflexively leap up and immediately pounce near Old Yellow Bull’s huge nostrils!

Ji You held 10 stinky bombs, He Bi also clutched 10 stinky bombs, both gloomily glaring at Old Yellow Bull. Then Ji You said, ”Old Bull, don’t treat me like this, let me tell you, if you keep this up, even familial bonds will be strained. Just keep running well and stop causing trouble.”

Her voice had obvious displeasure.

Old Yellow Bull’s body slightly trembled, clearly in an agitated state, but maybe due to the significant threat of stinky bombs, or perhaps unaware of how to handle the current issue, Old Yellow Bull did not directly confront Ji You and He Bi but instead pretended not to hear, continuing towards the passage’s exit.

With a sizzling sound~

Sizzling~

Sizzling~

...

While Old Yellow Bull ran, its wounds tore even more, with fresh blood gushing out.

Seeing this, Ji You slightly frowned, saying, ”It’s calling out in pain.”

He Bi’s hand moved on the stinky bomb, realizing this situation is indeed quite unique, estimating few outside would believe it.

It’s not about using star beasts to tow the spaceship, which is challenging to achieve. But there’s indeed some control possibility, as long as a person is strong and smart enough to utilize certain characteristics of star beasts for help.

What’s unbelievable here is Ji You.

Ji You can hear star beasts speak.

No.

To be precise, Ji You can sense star beasts’ spiritual fluctuations to understand what the star beasts want to express.

This is extremely unique, unique enough to become experimental material.

Of course, this doesn’t solely indicate Ji You’s uniqueness. Maybe the actual reason lies with this Two-headed Bull, whose peculiarities enable Ji You to understand its language by coincidence.

However, before eliminating the possibility of the Two-headed Bull, Ji You remains the best experimental material, bar none.

...

Since discovering this situation, He Bi’s heart had a moment of confusion; he knew this freshman is special, powerful, but didn’t imagine her to be so unique.

Indeed—

Trouble!

Thus, Ji You’s status in He Bi’s mind instantly ascended from an annoying freshman to an annoying and extremely troublesome freshman.

Truly troubling, even maddeningly bald-inducing existence.

He Bi sighed gently, then thought that Ji You’s situation, being her mentor Mu Jianling surely knows about it.

Obviously, Teacher Mu and Principal Hong must be even more stressed than himself.

Thinking this way, He Bi felt slightly comforted.

Hence, He Bi did not discuss Ji You’s ability to understand Old Yellow Bull’s language at this moment, but focused on the passage ahead, seemingly endless, never finishing.

He Bi said, ”If it’s in pain, there’s nothing we can do; if it can’t withstand the passage till the end, we’ll give up the free ride and fend for ourselves.”

Ji You: ”...”

Ji You rolled her eyes, saying, ”Listen, is this human language? Is there not even a tiny bit of mercy left?”

He Bi glanced at her, not responding.

”Cough cough...” Ji You lightly cleared her throat, next moment seriously said, ”Senior, let’s be clear, if it dies, these horns are mine, you can have the other parts.”

He Bi: ”...”

He Bi said, ”Are you the Devil? Where is your mercy?”

Even the running Old Yellow Bull momentarily paused, Ji You raised a hand, touching its huge nostrils, saying, ”Old Bull, don’t worry, it’s not dissecting you now, just when you’re dead.”

The Two-headed Bull bellowed angrily, ”Moo—”

[Don’t even think about it!]
