The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Chapter 1630: Chapter 1630: A Monster That Refreshes One’s Perception

Ji You’s words cast a shadow over everyone’s hearts present.

”I don’t know Shen Sheng. But, I’ve dealt with Ouyang Zhou before.” He Bi’s voice was neither too loud nor too soft, yet it held great influence in everyone’s mind. He continued: ”Although he’s a bit of a fool, he’s not a complete idiot. Even if he were dead, it wouldn’t be without a sound. So, this group surely made a collective escape.”

At this point, He Bi paused, then continued: ”Let’s first figure out how to leave the passage; after we leave, we must plan our escape.”

”Escape?” Ji You’s sharp ear picked up, and she asked: ”Do we have to run as soon as we get out?”

He Bi raised his hand and tapped the bull’s back underneath him, saying: ”This bull is so cunning and so afraid of death. If it’s not moving now, then surely there is great danger outside.”

Chu Jiaojiao also followed suit and tapped the bull’s back, saying with a giggle: ”That’s true, this Star Beast is the most cowardly one I’ve ever seen, it’s even more afraid of death than people.”

Yue Qiyuan squinted and said: ”According to Teacher Mu, being afraid of death isn’t a flaw. It’s an admirable virtue. Before we entered the Space Rift, didn’t the teacher and principal both tell us to be more cautious? Alright then, let’s just follow behind this bull, whatever it does, we’ll do the same.”

After Yue Qiyuan finished speaking, he thought he might get some ridicule, but unexpectedly, everyone felt it was a good idea, and He Bi decided directly: ”Let’s follow behind the bull; we can’t predict or control other dangers, but we can at least gauge this bull since it fears stench. We have some handle on that.”

These words suddenly filled the air with laughs everyone understood.

Upon hearing this laughter, the always silent Old Yellow Bull suddenly shivered all over.

Vaguely, it felt like it had fallen into a situation more dangerous than death itself.

The next instant.

The crowd quietly resting inside the passage walls all revealed a look of horror.

Because the spaceship’s probe launched at the funnel exit transmitted a shocking image!

In the originally silent void, where there seemed to be nothing, waves suddenly arose without wind, layer after layer, gathering from all directions toward a certain center point.

And soon, at the center of these gathered waves, one, two, three... At least hundreds of Star Beasts appeared.

These Star Beasts appeared, almost without showing a complete form, and fell into a pitch-black abyss-like hole.

The hole was so dark, it seemed to blend with the dark starry sky, rendering it invisible. But those Star Beasts that fell in were never seen again.

This scene greatly astonished Ji You and the others!

Everyone’s mouth was agape, unable to close for a long moment.

These Star Beasts that suddenly emerged and then vanished, the lowest was Level 5, highest Level 8!

They all flashed briefly and disappeared into the black abyss.

And the swallowing in the void continued, still a head, two heads, three heads of Star Beasts, appearing from the waves’ center and then disappearing in succession.

second.

seconds.

seconds.

...

After a few minutes, or maybe a few hours had passed, as the appearance and disappearance of Star Beasts completely ceased, Ji You and the others finally closed their mouths. They all looked up at the time, realizing only 3 minutes had past.

These brief 3 minutes felt like decades, every second was an eternity.

And then—

Before they could catch their breath, the layered waves surged violently again, and the next second, a fountain suddenly sprayed high into the air from the black abyss!

Splatter～

Splatter～

Splatter～

Listening to this sound, Ji You and others widened their eyes and when they saw, everyone’s face changed again!

Because, what was sprayed from the abyss-like black hole wasn’t anything else but white bones!

One piece, another piece...

All were Star Beast bones, some shattered, some even holding complete skeletons.

Not a speck of flesh was seen on the bones, so cleanly stripped, even seasoned butchers would bow to such skill.

Yue Qiyuan’s lips trembled slightly, he struggled to move his lips, only regaining a tiny shred of voice, ”What the heck, is this— feeding?”

He Bi, Ji You, Chu Jiaojiao kept quiet, He Bi raised his hand to silence the others.

Old Yellow Bull seemed to have lost its heartbeat, looking just like long dead zombie meat.

The entire passage entrance sank into a dead silence.

On spaceship X-N3848, Liu Fufeng had slumped sideways, as if she had stopped breathing.

Yue Qiguang and Sheng Qingyan weren’t much better, all lying in corpse poses.

The entire spaceship had only Shen Changqing at the main control seat, controlling his breathing frequency while diligently maneuvering the spaceship, ensuring it had no sign of tremor.

After all the bones were vomited out, the suddenly rising wave then subsided quietly.

No one dared to move.

Old Yellow Bull still looked like a zombie.

The waves stopped for about 3 minutes, and within the now tranquil starry sky, rolling began again suddenly.

A few seconds later, a colossal entity suddenly revealed its complete form, Ji You and the others: ”!!”

Only then did everyone clearly see what was responsible for such a huge commotion!

On those sticky masses, each glowing spot now looking like an eye...

Wasn’t this the froggy egg-like monster?

What!

This thing still hasn’t left?

Whether it leaves isn’t the key, the crucial problem is, how terrifying is this thing? It took down so many Star Beasts effortlessly!

All were Level 5 to Level 8 Star Beasts!

These were those mid to upper-level Star Beasts, requiring Ji You and others to gather forces to defeat!

...

It swallowed all at once, leaving only bone debris!

”!!!”

...

The scene was suffocating, there was no need for a performance now, Ji You, He Bi, Chu Jiaojiao... No one dared utter a sound.

For a long time.

For a long time.

...

When the monster’s silhouette disappeared once more, Ji You and others still dared not move, after all, this thing had a history, who knew if it was hiding in some corner, ready to launch a surprise attack?

Moreover, when did this thing arrive? How long has it been here? How did it turn invisible and disappear... These questions, Ji You and the others have yet to figure out, at this time, no one dared to seek their death actively.

Ji You sat on the bull’s back, not daring to breathe heavily; the scene just now had already inflicted an indelible damage upon her young heart, greatly broadening her horizons...

Ji You was both afraid and her eyes shone brightly!!!

To think such powerful creatures still exist in the world!

It’s practically akin to a Star Beast Destroyer!

If humans could gather one such creature to kill Star Beasts, how could the trouble of the Star Beasts remain unresolved?
