Chapter 1: The Time-Traveling Boy



Li Shu paid with great reluctance and chose the fruit flavor.

The taste of the nutritional supplement is more like jelly and tastes a bit like orange. It is not as bad as I imagined.

Not long after eating, the feeling of hunger disappeared instantly.

Li Shu touched his stomach a little uncomfortably. It was flat and empty, but the nutrients in the supplement were enough to sustain his energy for the whole day.

The future world is truly magical.

Li Shu sighed again and looked at the scenery outside the window, which contrasted with the calm and somewhat bored passengers around him.

The passenger ship is equipped with interstellar jump equipment, and it only takes one day to travel from one planet to another.

As evening approached, asteroids floating in the universe could be vaguely seen through the window. Their colors were very similar to the blue planets in Li Shu's previous life, which finally gave him a sense of reality.

The passenger ship stopped in mid-air and the system broadcast sounded.

The passenger ship has arrived at the transfer station, Lido Asteroid. Please proceed to the entrance and board the small spacecraft to land on the asteroid.

Li Shu stood up upon hearing this and walked to the entrance, ignoring the various strange looks from other passengers. The bionic robot gently gestured for Li Shu to board the ship: "Have a pleasant journey."

The small spacecraft traveled at an extremely high speed, passing through the clouds and reaching the ground.

When Li Shu's feet stepped on the solid ground, the small spaceship in front of him quickly rose again, returned to the passenger ship and disappeared.

"Li Shu? A new applicant for the position of Star Beast Breeder?"

Suddenly a voice came from behind.

Li Shu turned around and saw a man in a suit and tie who looked to be about thirty years old.

However, the average human lifespan in this world is already three hundred years old, so it is impossible to determine the specific age based on appearance.

Without waiting for Li Shu to ask, the other party politely introduced himself: "I am Jon, the captain of the Lido asteroid, or you can call me the warden of the Star Beast Prison. Come on, get in the car first."

On the way, the warden briefly introduced the approximate distribution area of ​​the star beasts on this planet. Some star beasts that have not yet lost control will live in the same area, and only those star beasts that are powerful and out of control will be imprisoned in the most strict area of ​​the prison.

The warden said, "But the staff here is very scarce. The only vacancies are left in the most dangerous areas."

He can adjust the staff.

However, those star beasts that have lost control are often aggressive towards the keepers who have taken care of other star beasts. On the contrary, only newcomers like Li Shu can barely get close to these powerful star beasts.

After saying this, the warden looked at Li Shu again.

The other person was listening to him attentively, without showing any fear or terror that other newcomers would have on their face. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but the other person seemed a little... excited.

Li Shu was indeed very excited.

It is said that the salaries of star beast breeders are also divided into different levels.

Li Shu asked, "How much is the pay for this difficult Star Beast Zone?"

Although it's a bit awkward to ask about salary on the first day, it's after all related to whether he can afford to buy seeds and meat...

The warden was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

Most newcomers would ask him whether working in this area is more dangerous than in other areas, what the chances are of the star beasts getting out of control, and whether there are weapons and tools in the prison that can suppress the star beasts in time.

But all these established probabilities were broken by this newcomer.

"The salary is 50,000 star coins, with bonuses on holidays, and a weekly allowance of 1,000 star coins for food and daily necessities. You need to apply for it yourself."

Li Shu was very excited when he heard this: "When do we start work?"

The warden didn't know what was going on in his mind. He patted Li Shu's shoulder and said gently, "I'll take you to change into work clothes first, and then I'll take you to see the star beasts in the danger zone."

Li Shu nodded.

The warden drove Shu away to the staff dormitory and entered his light computer ID into the entire prison system. Passage, payment, salary distribution, all activities can be carried out through the light computer.

Everything including the habits of the star beasts and their daily eating and drinking procedures were sent to Li Shu's light brain. He only needed to operate the machine buttons every day and occasionally chat with the star beasts to maintain their remaining sanity.

Although there are professional psychologists in the future world, these star beasts who are affected by the dangerous forces of the universe have a natural alertness and will only become more crazy and want to tear the psychologists to pieces.

Humanity can only watch these former heroes gradually die.

Li Shu took a shower and changed into work clothes.

The warden drove into the first Star Beast's territory and pointed at the Star Beast outside the hovercraft. He introduced it, "This Star Beast has a hazard rating of 81. Be careful not to get close to it. Even with its collar restraining all its strength, it can easily scratch your skin."

His tone was particularly solemn, but the people around him remained silent.

The warden turned around in confusion and saw the newcomer's eyes sparkling with excitement. "Oh my god, is this a panda rolling? In cub form!"

Warden: “???”

Even the keeper with the longest working time in Lido Prison would unconsciously become nervous and frightened when seeing any star beast in the danger zone. They would never be as... excited as this newcomer, and even seem to... like this star beast very much?

The doomsday world where Li Shu lives is full of zombies, and animals have also undergone mutations. The appearance of many animals has become terrifying and ugly, and they can no longer be seen in their previous appearance.

That is why the meat of ordinary animals is so expensive that he cannot afford it.

But in this future world, he could actually see such lively and cute pandas, and they were in the form of cubs.

Its body is black and white, with dark circles under its eyes. Its movements are clumsy and naive, and it doesn't look dangerous or lethal at all.

Li Shu was so itchy that he wanted to touch it.

The warden repeatedly warned: "Don't let it grab your legs, otherwise you will die faster."

Li Shu calmed down after hearing this.

He would not turn a deaf ear to the warden's warning.

After all, ordinary pandas on Earth can beat wolves and tigers alone, let alone this extremely dangerous star beast in front of them.

Even in cub form.

However... I didn't expect that in the future world, they still like to hug the keepers' thighs so much.

While the former was begging for food, the latter wanted to tear the keeper to pieces.
