Chapter 98 Life and Death



The man's threat was powerful and direct. Not only Ke Jin, but Momo also turned pale in an instant.

Because she knew very well that no matter whether Ke Jin had a way to prove that he was the Chosen One or not, her fate would be death - these people were angry that Ke Jin had exposed the coordinates and put them in unexpected danger, but they did not dare to kill Ke Jin, so they used themselves as a blood sacrifice to vent their anger.

Momo's judgment was exactly what Ke Jin was worried about. He knew that no matter what choice he made, it would be difficult to guarantee Momo's safety. Momo was targeted because she was trying to protect herself. If she died because of this, he would never be able to forgive himself for the rest of his life.

Ke Jin was silent for a while, racking his brains to think of a countermeasure while pretending to be submissive.

"If you want me to prove it, I can. But now there is no way to make a card. Even if I want to prove that I am the Chosen One, I can't do it."

The man was well prepared. He took out the intercom and said a few words to the other party, then smiled maliciously at Ke Jin: "The things you need will be delivered soon. If you can't prove it by then, not only this woman, but you will also die!"

Ke Jin took a deep breath, and his body rose and fell, but he suddenly paused, a hint of disbelief flashed in his eyes, and then he quickly concealed it.

"I advise you to be polite." Ke Jin glanced at the man and suddenly smiled sarcastically, "If it is finally confirmed that I am indeed the Chosen One, I will be your guest of honor. At that time, you must be respectful to me. If I am in a bad mood, it is hard to say who will live and who will die."

The man was stunned for a moment, then he flew into a rage: "How dare you threaten me?!"

Out of anger, he subconsciously moved the gun away from Momo and took a step forward to teach Ke Jin a lesson again, but as soon as he raised his hand, the young man who was originally sitting on the ground suddenly jumped up and slammed into his chest. His hands, which should have been tied behind his back, suddenly stretched out and raised his hand to snatch the laser gun in his other hand.

He never expected that Ke Jin would regain his personal freedom. Even though he had an absolute advantage in physical strength, the opponent's unexpected move caught the little leader off guard. The two fell to the ground together and soon wrestled with each other.

This incident happened too suddenly. Before anyone could react, Ke Jin had already grabbed the laser gun. If he wanted to stop being constrained, he had to have a certain ability to defend himself and fight back. After the turbulence of the plane and the beating from the other party, the ropes that bound his hands and feet had unknowingly loosened. So he took this risky action with all his might. Even if it didn't work, it could attract everyone's attention and stop them from staring at Momo.

But Ke Jin is still too inexperienced.

Although he managed to grab the laser gun, as a veteran mercenary, how could he only have one weapon? Before Ke Jin could point the gun at the man, the other party had already taken out another pistol from his waist and shot Ke Jin in the shoulder without hesitation.

“Ugh!!”

The bright blue laser beam instantly penetrated Ke Jin's right shoulder. The intense pain made Ke Jin instinctively raise his gun to fight back. The opponent immediately pointed the gun at Ke Jin's left arm, but after the laser was fired, because Ke Jin staggered, the deadly laser did not hit the young man's arm, but directly hit his chest.

"Ke Jin!!" Momo screamed in fear - being pierced through the chest by the laser would kill her instantly!

The little leader was also a little dazed. He just wanted to intimidate Ke Jin, but he never expected that the other party would be so unlucky and run directly into the muzzle of the gun. If the other party was really the chosen one, he would be dead!

In full view of everyone, everyone watched as the black-haired young man staggered back a few steps, but he did not fall down, and there was no bloody hole on his chest left by the laser. Behind his clothes that were torn apart by the laser burn, something flashed slightly, then fell out from his chest and landed lightly on the ground.

Ke Jin was also surprised by this.

He thought he was going to die just now, but unexpectedly, at the critical moment, something on his chest actually blocked it for him. However, he didn't remember wearing anything that could block lasers! When his eyes fell on the object that fell to the ground, the astonishment and shock in his heart were even stronger than when he had just escaped death -

It turned out to be the black card that was searched!

The little leader also recognized the card, because he had specifically questioned Ke Jin at that time, and he had a deep impression of this completely black card that looked like a waste card. He remembered that he had searched Ke Jin's body, but he didn't find a second strange black card on the young man at that time? And he handed this card over to the leader afterwards, why did it suddenly appear here?

Moreover, what was even more incredible and unbelievable was that how could an ordinary card, even a card with special materials, block the laser beam of a laser gun at such a close distance? ?

The broadcasting system in the passenger cabin was suddenly turned on, and the voice of the mercenary group leader "Hunter" was heard.

[There's something strange about this kid.]

Compared to the previous carelessness and arrogance, the "hunter's" voice this time sounded particularly serious and solemn.

【Bring him to me.】

The leader's order made the confused little chief come to his senses instantly. The space in the cabin was extremely small. Even if he was holding a weapon, the bullet in the chest, even if it did not penetrate the chest, the huge impact force still made Ke Jin's hands and feet a little numb. His movements slowed down for a moment, and he was immediately subdued by the people who rushed over.

"Behave yourself!" Seeing that although Ke Jin was seriously injured in his right shoulder, he was still struggling desperately, the little leader immediately glared at him fiercely. Just as he was about to yell something again, the fuselage of the plane suddenly shook violently, as if it had hit something, or as if it was suddenly stopped. Everyone was shaken so much that they lost their balance and fell to the ground in all directions.

"What's going on?!!"

The sudden vibration threw Ke Jin into a corner, and his right shoulder hit the wall, causing him to almost faint from the pain. Several mercenary members who were closer to the window had already seen the situation outside through the small window.

"It's that interstellar patrol ship!" Someone couldn't help but screamed, "They're chasing us again?"

If they had collided with a patrol ship from another galaxy, they would have thought it was just bad luck. However, they had already made an uncalibrated interstellar jump, and they were still accurately tracked by the other party from another galaxy. This was very scary - this meant that the coordinates of their aircraft were still within the other party's monitoring range, but that shouldn't be the case? They had just cleared the location mark left on that person, so why hadn't they cut off his connection with the other party? Could it be that the mark card used by this person was an extremely rare seven-star ability card? ?

Suddenly, everyone looked at Ke Jin, and the little leader's face became extremely ugly.

“Who the hell are you??”

Although their mercenary group takes money and works for others, it also depends on the other party's background. If they provoke a big shot with a bigger background for a small profit, they will never do such a deal. The Seven Star Power Card is not something that anyone can own. Could it be that this young man is actually from a big family? They hit a wall without knowing it? ?

Before the man could continue to ask, the plane started to shake again. Perhaps because they had lost the plane once before, the patrol boat pursued it very fiercely this time, even using force, which was a fatal blow to a civilian plane that had no self-defense or attack power.

Ke Jin rolled around in the turbulence of the plane. No one cared about him now. In the chaos, he vaguely saw that Momo seemed to have broken free from the rope and was trying to balance her body, as if she wanted to crawl towards him. From the girl's nervous expression and the focus of her eyes, Ke Jin guessed that she saw that his right shoulder was bleeding badly and wanted to come over to bandage him quickly.

The familiar feeling of dizziness came over him again. After all, he had just experienced it not long ago. This time, Ke Jin immediately realized that this spacecraft seemed to be preparing to start another interstellar jump.

Can an ordinary civilian aircraft withstand two consecutive interstellar jumps in a short period of time?

Ke Jin was thinking in a daze, and suddenly he felt something. He looked down subconsciously, and was surprised to find that the black card that had fallen out before had returned to him at some point, and was now lying neatly in the right chest pocket of his coat.

?! ?! ?!

What is going on with this black card???

But the dizziness brought by the interstellar jump was becoming more and more intense. Ke Jin was simply unable to take out this strange black card to examine it carefully, nor was he able to look away - as if he was deeply attracted to something, and as if he was bewitched by something, Ke Jin stared at the card with a dull and obsessive gaze. In a trance, he seemed to see the card transform into a slowly beating black heart, and then gradually turned into a constantly expanding black hole, swallowing him up bit by bit.

All the strength in his body seemed to be drained away, and he gradually lost even the pain. A familiar sneer rang in his ears, but Ke Jin could no longer think about where he had heard this familiar laughter. He just closed his eyes heavily.

Ke Jin, who was in a coma, didn't know when the plane stopped vibrating, nor did he know how ugly and frightened Momo's face was when the plane jumped into a new galaxy and looked out the window.

"Actually..." She murmured absentmindedly, "Actually... you're back..."

***

"What? Another star jump?!"

When Oloy heard the news from Eggers, he was so angry that he almost overturned the table.

"Are those people crazy?!" he shouted angrily, "How dare they make two jumps with such a crappy plane in such a short period of time?! Do they think they can't die quickly enough?!"

"Maybe we chased them too hard and pushed them into a corner..." Eggers said weakly.

This sentence reminded Oloy. He turned his head and glared at Eggers fiercely.

"Why didn't you stop them?!" Orloy said angrily, "It was just an ordinary civilian aircraft! Are the people you employ all useless?! You couldn't even stop that kind of rubbish aircraft?!"

Eggers's private spaceship has been parked near the interstellar space station of the Aquarius galaxy all year round. After discovering that Ke Jin's coordinates were abnormal, Oloy immediately asked Eggers to send people to track the coordinates and go over to see what happened. Unexpectedly, as soon as they appeared, the aircraft turned around and fled, which was completely a manifestation of a guilty conscience. Oloy and his team speculated that the aircraft was probably hijacked by some interstellar thieves, and those people mistakenly thought that Eggers' private spaceship was an interstellar patrol ship, so they avoided it so much.

"They are very cunning and look like they are ready to die. We cannot just shoot down the plane. It is not easy to stop it by force..." Eggers understood the dilemma of his men and could not help but defend them. "It is useless to get angry now. The most urgent thing is to find out where they have jumped to as soon as possible. With the experience of the previous two times, we should not fail again this time."

Oloy was very angry, but more because he was too anxious. After all, he couldn't do anything now. It was not pleasant to just wait for others to pass on the message. He immediately tapped the card on the table with a green glow. Logically, when the plane jumped in the interstellar space, the positioning card should have changed its coordinates in real time. But maybe it was because of excessive energy consumption, it did not update the coordinates. Even after Oloy injected energy into it with other cards, the light on the card gradually dimmed until it became a translucent state when the card was not activated.

Um?

Oloy was stunned for a moment, but no matter how he activated the card, it no longer responded and remained quietly on the table.

"Lost contact?" Eggers asked subconsciously, "Is the mark invalid?"

"Don't talk nonsense!" Orloy suddenly yelled. After repeatedly activating it to no avail, he directly opened his own card library. In a flash, the whole room was shrouded in the light of the virtual card library suspended in the air. The card library was densely packed with various rare high-star cards. Eggers was instantly dazzled by Orloy's terrifying and amazing inventory.

After being distracted for a moment, Eggers soon discovered that when Orloy was searching for cards in the huge inventory, his hands were shaking slightly.

After a moment of confusion, Eggers suddenly realized and at the same time felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, feeling cold from head to toe.

The Seven Star Positioning Card is not an ordinary card. It is impossible for the mark to suddenly become invalid. If it does happen, it can only mean one thing -

The marked person has lost all vital signs and has completely disappeared from this world...
