Lu Jinzhao looked at the half remaining bullet storage, put the pistol into the holster, tied it to his right thigh, picked up the unactivated light blade beside him and inserted it into his boot.

[Weapon name: Stellar Light Energy Dagger. Model: HXN-74. It can only be damaged by destroying the focusing module. The damage is proportional to the charge.]

He glanced at the bodies lying on the ground nearby, and referring to the styles of their clothing, he bought a similar windbreaker jacket in the system mall, as well as an advanced optical computer that seemed to be a must-have for every interstellar person, and then he slowly stood up and walked out.

As soon as I walked out of the door, I was greeted by a twisted humanoid figure. It looked like a human but not a human, with only a few sparse hairs on its head, iron-gray skin with cracks all over it, a body taller than most interstellar creatures but extremely slender, arms with three-section joints that were longer than its legs, and sharp claws that were ten centimeters long. It looked like a low-intelligence, man-eating monster from some horror game.

The monster was busy forcing a male human into a corner. Amid the man's terrified begging for mercy, it stretched out its claws and tore off his arm, then opened its mouth and chewed, scaring the seriously injured human to incontinence. He screamed in pain, but the scream seemed to excite the monster even more, and it opened its mouth and bit off his head.

The combat boots produced by the system are not only light, wear-resistant, and have a strong grip, but also have a very good mute effect. Lu Jinchao was initially set to be an assassin in an online game, and walking silently is a basic skill; plus his new body is a cat, which is naturally agile and light.

The monster had its back to them and was unaware of his approach.

"yue——" When Lu Jinzhao came closer, the two saw the tragic scene clearly. Qiansui couldn't help it and started to retch.

The sound startled the monster, and it turned around at an extremely fast speed and swung its claws straight at Lu Jinzhao's shoulder and neck.

Lu Jinchao reacted quickly, and he stepped on the tip of his toes and left the spot, brushing against the tip of the claw. Qiansui was accidentally thrown away by inertia. He caught it with one hand and put it back on his shoulder. With his right hand, he quickly pulled out the pistol he had just picked up and fired dozens of shots in an instant.

The focused energy bullet pierced the monster from the brain to the spine, and the monster fell down with a bang!

"Brother Chao is so handsome!" Qiansui gave a thumbs up, but still couldn't help retching, "Yue—— too disgusting, luckily I haven't eaten anything, sorry Brother Chao, I didn't mean to attract its attention just now..."

"It's okay. If you really can't stand it, just turn invisible. At least it can block the smell. Don't force it."

Chitose returned to invisibility and wondered, "No, don't you want to vomit?"

Lu Jinzhao used the wristband that came with the optical computer to scan the monster's body from top to bottom, making sure that the monster was dead, and recorded its possible fatal weaknesses. He calmly put the pistol back into the thigh holster and said, "Oh, in order to cure my love brain, I specifically looked for high-definition uncensored corpse dismemberment cases, uncut heavy-mouthed movies, and surgery videos to eat with my meals. This is nothing."

Moreover, the orcs' bodies seem to be naturally not as averse to the smell of blood as humans.

"You are still the best, Brother Chao..." Qiansui silently showed a thumbs-up emoji and slapped his face many times before he recovered: "What the hell is this thing? Oh my God, why does it eat people? Those incomplete limbs in that room just now couldn't have been caused by it..."

"It's possible. There might be more than one monster just now. Record its aura and turn on the radar. Let's avoid it in advance."

"receive!"

Lu Jinzhao pulled out the ID card from the headless corpse's chest and put it in his coat pocket: "Can you analyze the structure of the spacecraft?"

Chitose swung his tail back and forth, poking straight into the control console of the mechanism door beside him to receive data: "Of course! Give me three seconds!"

"The ship's structural diagram has been successfully unlocked! It has been transferred to your optical computer."

Lu Jinzhao raised his left arm, and a light screen was projected on the bracelet, which was the 3D map of the spaceship. He was currently in the rest area on the top floor of the spaceship, and a light blue dot appeared on the map. He thought for a moment and said, "Sensing how many living creatures there are, human beings are marked with green dots, monsters are marked with red dots, and unknown ones are marked with black dots."

"Got it! Sensing completed, marked."

Seeing the result, Qiansui was shocked: "Hiss, there are not many living people left... The first and second floors are full of monsters. If you want to get out of the airship, you have to kill them all."

Lu Jinzhao pointed at the two green spots on the same floor. One of them was dim, indicating that he was seriously injured and would not live long. The other spot was still very bright. "Can you identify who it is?"

Chitose stroked his chin and compared it with the database: "They are the vice-captain and captain of this starship."

"Let's go find them and find out what happened."

*

Inside the Space-Time Administration.

A man in executive uniform rushed into the main control room and shouted, "Immediately forcefully close all external channels to XJDTS-2 Hour Space! Quick!"

T503 looked at him in confusion: "What's wrong Y281? What happened?"

Y281 was sweating profusely and said quickly, "I just received the latest news. There are no less than a hundred fugitives with the system gathered there! The number is still increasing! Close all channels quickly! Call all the executive team members who are not on the mission to hold an emergency meeting to discuss countermeasures!"

T503 stood up from the chair, "What did you say?! XJDTS-2 small space?! But I just let someone in! Why didn't you come a few minutes earlier! If it's really as serious as you said, I would have killed her!"

She was so anxious that she operated the main console and pressed the forced recall button dozens of times, but there was no response. She opened the exclusive call channel with Chu Nian: "Hurry up! Hurry up!"

【The ID you called is offline. 】

Usually when this prompt appears, it most likely means that the ID holder is dead.

T503 sat back in his chair with a gloomy face: "How could this happen... I really like her, and I thought that we could become colleagues someday..."

Y281 watched the passage being closed and breathed a sigh of relief: "Seal off XJDTS-2 hour space! No one is allowed to enter or leave until the management team has a meeting to discuss a solution!"

By the time Lu Jinzhao bypassed all kinds of gates and monsters and slowly walked to Yiliangmu's side, Jiang Rui was already dying. Half of his upper body was bitten off by the monster, and the monster's saliva was corrosive. Yiliangmu used dozens of cell regenerators but was unable to stop his life from being lost.

Yiliangmu was holding half of Jiang Rui in his arms, with claw marks of all sizes all over his body, and even his right leg was twisted and deformed. He didn't have time to ask why non-ship personnel could easily reach the fourth floor, and subconsciously looked at Lu Jinzhao for help, begging: "Please, help me! Help me carry him to the infirmary across the street, please!"

Lu Jinzhao knelt down on one knee, glanced at Jiang Rui's defeated face, shook his head and said, "The end is near."

Yiliangmu looked sad. He was used to seeing life and death, how could he not know? He just didn't want to admit this fact. He couldn't remain indifferent to the death of his master who was like a brother and a father to him.

"He's hopeless, but you still have hope." Lu Jinzhao took out a tube of X potion from his pocket and waved it in front of Yi Liangmu: "Tell me where this is and what happened, and I can heal your leg."

Yiliangmu shed tears, his face showed despair, and he spoke with trembling lips: "We are one of the teams in the Star Sea Transport Alliance responsible for the cargo transportation of border planets. We received a commission to send more than 200 living people to this border planet, Retra. Since this is a place where humans and other races trade on the border, there is often a black market for human trafficking, so we didn't pay much attention to it and sent that group of people here."

"I didn't know in advance that this mission was worth 200 million universal coins. When I found out, the spacecraft had already arrived nearby. I felt something was wrong. How could more than 200 sick and dying people be worth 200 million? So I advised him to give up the mission and return, but he didn't listen..."

"Originally, things were going smoothly. We delivered the goods to the warehouse of the underground black market and planned to rest for a night and return the next day. But in the middle of the night, a team member suddenly mutated in the hall and turned into a monster. It began to slaughter the living people in the starship. The flesh would be corroded by its saliva. I'm not sure if its claws were the source of the mutation. People caught by it soon turned into monsters. But I was caught too. I don't know why I didn't mutate..."

"Besides that, I don't know anything..."

Lu Jinchao looked normal: "Is there anything different about the person who mutated first?"

"Unlike usual..." Yiliangmu thought for a long time before hesitantly speaking: "His name is Wu Twelve. When he was delivering goods with me in the afternoon, we were both splashed with the brain of one of the goods... No, that smell should be blood, but it was a strange grayish white... I didn't get in contact with my skin and was automatically cleaned up by my clothes. Wu Twelve was accidentally splashed on the face... Everything else was the same as usual! But after he delivered the goods, he went to the underground black market. I'm not sure if anything happened to him during that time!"

Chitose nodded: "He is telling the truth."

"Drink this and you will recover soon. Good luck to you." Lu Jinzhao put the x potion in his palm, tore a piece of blood-stained cloth from his wound, got up and left.

Yiliangmu held the x potion in his hand and stared at him as he walked away in a daze.

Qiansui was puzzled: "Brother Chao, aren't you going to save him?"

Lu Jinzhao stretched lazily, raised his hand to rub the back of his neck, and said nonchalantly: "I am not his parent, what obligation do I have to save him? Now it is obviously the beginning of the apocalypse script, can I still save everyone I see and save the whole world? The first rule of the apocalypse: kill the Virgin Mary first."

"But doesn't a saintly person mean someone who always says, 'He's so pitiful, you should save him' and uses moral blackmail? And what did you do with his blood sample?"

"To be kind without caring about your own life or death is also a kind of saintly act. I'll find you some zombie movies later so you can see the consequences of saving people in the apocalypse. It's true that X potion is for genetic defects, but the new version of the additional items states that it may not be effective against foreign viruses. Didn't you hear him say that he was scratched by a monster? If he survived without mutating, it means that there is a high probability that there are some antibodies in his blood. It would be good to study it. What if he mutates, should I kill him or not?"

"So where are we going now?"

"The arsenal, of course."

"Well, can't we just redeem the stuff with points?"

"There are ready-made weapons, so why waste the points I worked so hard to earn? It's Doomsday now, and I don't want to play a likable role to gain favor."

"That's right. What if it's like the last small world and you end up with a debt of love... So you want to let yourself go? Then I'm quite curious about what you'll do, hehe."

Following the instructions on the map, Lu Jinzhao came to the armory near the main control area of ​​the spacecraft. He took out an optical cable from his bracelet, hacked into the control hub in a few seconds, and easily opened the door.

There were all kinds of weapons neatly arranged inside, from pistols to rifles, cannons, and explosives. The styles were very different from the common ones in modern times, and the technology inside was thousands of times more advanced than the weapons produced today.

Lu Jinzhao unfolded his personal weapon rack, loaded one of each weapon in it, and set up the function of automatically replenishing the same type of inventory after damage. With a thought, the weapon appeared out of thin air in his hand.

After arranging all kinds of hot weapons, Lu Jinchao took out two knives and scabbards and pinned them on his belt. The two knives were of the same standard, about half a meter long, with uniform width and thickness, single-sided blades, and extremely sharp.

He put on half a pair of gloves, came to the main control room, stuck a small fixed-point blasting bomb that could control the explosion range on the glass, turned and walked out the door, and clicked the explosion button on the bracelet.

The range of the bomb was well controlled, and it blew a person-sized hole in the special glass that could withstand long-distance interstellar travel, and he successfully drilled out.

Now that he has a bionic body, he does not need oxygen or food to sustain his life, so he does not need any protective measures and can walk freely in space.

It turns out that the starship always stays in the port.

There was chaos down there, with cries, begging for mercy, and explosions ringing out.

Only dozens of armed border guards are still fighting hard.

Lu Jinzhao stood on top of the starship, taking everything in. He recorded everything he saw with his optical computer and sent it anonymously to the border army's communications department.

Soon, the border troops arrived and quickly took control of the situation, suppressing the monsters with firepower and wiping them out, leaving only a few alive to be taken back for research.

By the time the situation calmed down, a rough count showed that thousands of people had been killed or injured, and tens of thousands of nearby residents gathered at the port with their luggage, trying to flee.

It is hard to get a ticket to leave the port, the price is over a thousand gold coins, and the selling price has increased thousands of times!

Chitose looked around and said, "Aren't you going to take the boat and leave here, brother?"

“No money.”

"Unfortunately, my upgrade direction is not here, so I cannot access this small world and exchange it for money on a one-to-one basis... Or you can just use Qinggong to fly in. I guarantee that they won't be able to feel your speed at all."

"Didn't you see the ultra-high-speed cameras, motion capture scanners, and particle cannons that intercept speeding objects outside the spacecraft?"

"Now that I see it...if I force my way through, I'll be shot to pieces..."

Yiliangmu was finally rescued by the army. He buried Jiang Rui and other brothers who died, used all his wealth to buy a boat ticket at a high price, and left Ritela overnight.

The authorities issued a notice: [The disaster has been eradicated. Please do not be too nervous and go home to rest. The situation is completely under government control.]

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and rushed home.

Qiansui showed his physical form and coiled his body around Lu Jinzhao's shoulders. They found a hotel to stay in. The world's technology is extremely advanced now, and the streets are almost full of unmanned hotels and restaurants. There is no need for people to work as laborers. Various machines and bionic people can do things properly.

Of course, one of the advantages of having no living people is that he can eat and drink for free.

All you need to do is hack into the systems of the bionic people and machines.

After all, he was an outsider and had no so-called universal currency. And the large amount of RMB he owned was already a historical relic thousands or tens of thousands of years old here, and would only appear in museums and could not be circulated as currency.

Qiansui shook his head: "After three or four years of hard work, we are back to the days before liberation overnight!"
