The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Chapter 1743: Chapter 1743: Negotiation

”Jumping the Great God?”

At that moment, Little Golden Dragon suddenly felt a bit desperate.

It’s over.

Completely beyond saving.

Little Golden Dragon slightly closed its eyes. If before, it still held a hint of hope, thinking Ji You ignoring it and not speaking to it must be due to some undisclosed inconvenience, and that she was just acting secretly.

Now, as Ji You began jumping the Great God, Little Golden Dragon felt its hope instantly shattered, with no chance of salvation in sight.

Heavens above!

It’s just a Mecha.

Why make it carry so much burden?

Internally howling in agony, outwardly, Little Golden Dragon maintained a solemn face, pondering what it should do.

Firstly, there’s Liu Fufeng; Liu Fufeng’s situation is the most dangerous.

Thinking so, Little Golden Dragon raised its head, looking at the now-bloodied Liu Fufeng, its gaze instantly froze.

Okay.

Liu Fufeng is beyond help.

Abandon treatment then.

Thinking so, Little Golden Dragon turned its face, deciding to first check the others. If someone could still be saved, it would risk its life to rescue them.

Just as Little Golden Dragon turned its face, it saw He Bi, Chu Jiaojiao, Yue Qiguang... and everyone suddenly start going crazy!

Each one’s limbs twitched, bodies shook, like they were having convulsions. Even Liu Fufeng, already a bloodied person, was rolling uncontrollably on the floor, the vigor made Little Golden Dragon question life itself. Is this... is this still someone on the brink of death?

Seeing this, Little Golden Dragon’s mouth unconsciously formed an ’O’ shape!

”Damn!”

”What’s going on?”

”Don’t scare the Mecha!”

Just as Little Golden Dragon was at a loss, its vision going black, a slightly hoarse voice suddenly came to its ear.

”Stop dawdling, come help me quickly.”

Little Golden Dragon: ”!!!”

In that moment, Little Golden Dragon jumped three feet high: ”Woman, you finished jumping the Great God?”

Upon hearing this, Ji You’s movements noticeably paused: ”Who told you I was jumping the Great God?”

Little Golden Dragon didn’t care about these words, as soon as it heard Ji You’s voice, its legs felt as if equipped with wind and fire wheels, joyfully leaping from beside the window onto Ji You’s head.

”Woman, what do you want me to do?”

”Don’t speak, listen to my instructions.” Ji You’s hands didn’t move, remaining in a very strange twisted posture, as if holding onto something.

Little Golden Dragon immediately shut up.

Ji You signaled for it to watch her hands, Little Golden Dragon tilted its head, puzzled, Ji You didn’t speak, but suddenly, her hands turned over, from palms down to palms up, in that instant, Little Golden Dragon felt a very intense pressure following Ji You’s hands, invading its body.

What’s going on?

Little Golden Dragon really wanted to ask.

Ji You said: ”Tail.”

Little Golden Dragon: ”???”

Ji You said: ”Wrap your tail around my arm, and tie a dead knot.”

Little Golden Dragon: ”...”

Little Golden Dragon didn’t know what to say anymore, mainly because it couldn’t understand what significance this action had as requested by Ji You.

However, Little Golden Dragon didn’t oppose, nor did it hesitate, immediately complying. But due to the confusion, Little Golden Dragon’s actions inevitably fell short of Ji You’s tone, leading Ji You to quickly say: ”Not enough, extend your tail a bit more, imagine the thing I’m holding as a ball of yarn, your tail’s function is to tie this ball of yarn securely.”

”Huh?” Little Golden Dragon paused but soon understood Ji You’s meaning, isn’t it just tying up a ball of yarn?

Piece of cake!

Its tail could definitely do it.

The next moment, Little Golden Dragon seemed to have comprehended instantly, fulfilling Ji You’s command in a flash, Ji You felt relieved but didn’t stop, turning towards the Two-headed Bull.

At that time, the bull head larger than Ji You’s whole body remained still, its eyes wide open, pupils bulging, with a hint of a smile on its mouth, that eerie state similar to He Bi, Sheng Qingyan and others in the spaceship cabin.

Instantly, Little Golden Dragon felt uneasy again.

”Woman, what are you intending to do?”

”Cut the lines,” Ji You said.

”Cut what?” Little Golden Dragon didn’t hear clearly, asked again.

”Cut the lines,” Ji You repeated and then raised her head, looked to a place beyond the endless darkness, and said: ”Behind the darkness, there’s a line manipulating us. I’ve sorted it out, you say, should I cut it?”

While she said this, constantly looking afar, as if speaking to Little Golden Dragon, yet also as if addressing some distant creature.

At that moment, Little Golden Dragon shuddered, ”Lines? Where? How come I can’t see them?”

Unconvinced, it spun around, still finding nothing!

”Wait!”

”Are you saying the ball of yarn I’ve tied with my tail?” Little Golden Dragon said and immediately grasped the key point, asking: ”Wait, why is it just one line? Didn’t I tie a whole ball?”

Ji You squinted, looking towards the void, her voice neither high nor low, said: ”Not just one line, probably tens of trillions, but the unimportant ones, only one line matters, and I’ve caught it!”

Little Golden Dragon’s heart skipped a beat: ”Is it the one I tied into a ball?”

Turns out there really are ghosts manipulating Ji You and the others behind the scenes, the more Little Golden Dragon thought, the more uneasy it felt, saying: ”Quickly cut it, don’t dawdle!”

Unsure if Liu Fufeng was saved yet.

If cutting the line could save Liu Fufeng, then quickly cut it, dawdling could delay saving people.

Little Golden Dragon slightly fidgeted with its posterior, wishing it could replace Ji You and cut the line itself, too bad it couldn’t see where the line was.

Ji You said: ”No rush, I want to negotiate with it, if negotiations fail, then I’ll cut the line immediately.”

Little Golden Dragon: ”...”

Little Golden Dragon couldn’t help but retort: ”Negotiate with what? The ghosts controlling behind the scenes, if they can manipulate all of you, they definitely won’t negotiate, the advantage is clearly with them, let’s not negotiate, just go ahead and cut it.”

Ji You remained silent, she squinted her eyes, her dark pupils constantly fixed on a particular spot in the void, said: ”I’ll give you 10 seconds. Human time unit, count carefully.”

Meanwhile—

In a place extremely far from the Black Fog where Ji You was, pairs of glowing green eyes all opened widely, each of them sitting upright, but at this moment, they were completely disordered, standing up one by one, and then, they started spinning in circles, next moment, bumping into one another, forming chaos.
