"Boss, how about I act as bait to lure them away, and then we can start again?"
The bald man sensed something was wrong and didn't want to proceed according to Lu Yuanhong's plan.
"No, there's something on this spaceship that drives them crazy; you can't lure it away."
"Do as I say."
Watching as everyone perished under the bombardment of the particle cannon, and the dimensional rift slowly closing.
Gu Chen, the bald man, stared at the blacked-out video feed on the other end.
...
How long does the shortest safe jump take?
The bald man turned around and asked the soldier behind him, "I'm not good at quantum mechanics and physics."
But no one answered him; the silence was eerily quiet, and only then did he belatedly realize that something was wrong.
"I'm asking you a question! Tell me, how long will it take?!"
As she spoke, she began frantically making video calls to Lu Yuanhong, but no one answered.
"Brother Chen, the jump won't take long and won't cause the video to be interrupted. The only possibility is that the boss was lying to you just now." That civilian spaceship simply cannot support jumps.
If Glasses were there, he would immediately know that Lu Yuanhong was lying and deliberately using himself as bait. But Baldy trusted Lu Yuanhong too much, and even though his intuition told him something was wrong, he did it anyway.
At this moment, he would rather die with Lu Yuanhong than accept that he had killed Lu Yuanhong.
Lu Yuanhong knew that if he didn't decisively eliminate these insects and beasts and let them escape, innocent people would inevitably be harmed. The other party had calculated that he wouldn't be so heartless as to sacrifice others to save themselves.
Perhaps he had this idea in his mind when he was preparing to send his soldiers away.
Seeing Gu Chen's mental energy almost going berserk, the soldier below, who had already been injured by the insect beast attack, coughed up blood again. Remembering the general's orders, he still forced himself to come to Gu Chen's side.
"Brother Chen, the boss's sachet."
As he spoke, he opened his hand, revealing a light blue sachet, which Lu Yuanhong had once cherished and kept close to his body.
"The boss said he hopes you will give the sachet to the mistress of Rose Star."
"Anything else?"
The bald man took the sachet. This rough, burly man, who was 1.8 meters tall and hadn't cried even when he was injured, started to shed tears.
"Don't cry, or the boss's sachet won't smell good anymore."
"The boss said you should go back and go on blind dates."
"A blind date?! I'd never go on a blind date, I...!"
Lu Yuanhong arranged things extremely well. He didn't even give the bald man much time to grieve before Glasses called in.
"What's up?"
"I couldn't get through to the boss's personal terminal, so I called you. What's going on with you guys?"
"Why are you crying, and you're covered in blood!"
"We're going to avenge our boss! Let's go back to base!"
...
The cruise ship was already in stealth mode, so it left very quickly.
After they left, a real space pirate ship sailed up.
"Brother, there seems to be a fire over there. Let's go and loot while the fire is burning."
"Smack!"
"I've told you so many times, we are bounty hunters who punish evil and promote good, not pirates anymore. We've already cleaned up our act. What are you talking about, robbery?"
"oh."
However, according to interstellar regulations, undocumented individuals, even if they don't want to become criminals, have no choice but to become pirates. Although the leader doesn't want to be a pirate, that's what they are.
We've been stuck in this beat-up spaceship for years, and the boss is so stingy, he doesn't even bother to replace it.
When the spaceship arrived, all that remained were the unburnt corpses of insect beasts floating in the starry sky.
"Boss, do you want more? I heard that insect beasts are edible, so why don't we collect them?"
"Smack!"
"Do you think your boss is a scavenger?... Well, go collect some edible things."
