“You’re full of it! You’re a starship captain?”
“Don’t think I don’t know, in your Galactic Alliance, Earthlings, men can’t be captains.”
“So you’re saying you’re a starship captain? Don’t be ridiculous.”
Guard Judy kept teasing and mocking Sun He along the way.
She already disliked this man, and the princess insisted on saving him. Now that she finally found an outlet for her emotions, she couldn’t miss this chance to relentlessly mock him!
Sherrill was also helpless on the side. Actually, she didn't quite believe Sun He’s words either, because it was common knowledge that there were no men among the Galactic Alliance’s starship commanders.
Sun He listened to Judy’s words and observed Sherrill’s gaze, but he didn’t explain much. He just smiled.
He knew that no matter what he said now, it would be against common sense in their eyes.
Sun He started observing his surroundings.
This was his first time coming to another planet.
Since his crossing, he had been taken to the Qingyuan, and he had not actually seen the strange planets rumored to exist in those stories. They only existed in the knowledge stored in his memory.
The air was much fresher than Earth, and the surrounding vegetation seemed much larger.
And this lizard was also bigger than Earth… bigger… bigger…
Sun He looked at the lizard in front of him, the size of a large bus, and felt his body stiffen.
But the next second, the giant lizard was decapitated, and the huge head rolled at Sun He’s feet.
“What? Scared already?”
On the giant lizard’s body, Guard Judy stood there with her short blade in hand. It was Guard Judy who had just slashed this giant lizard with a single stroke.
“Don’t mind her, our elves have generally higher combat abilities. Plus, Judy is using a secret silver weapon that can directly cut through these monsters’ bodies.” Sherrill explained casually on the side.
Sun He swallowed.
He knew this. In terms of racial talent, Earth humans were actually very weak.
It was only with the help of technology that Earthlings once controlled the entire galaxy, and were even eligible to enter the gambling table of interstellar conquest.
“We’re almost at our camp.” Sherrill pointed ahead.
Guard Judy was carrying Sun He’s escape pod in one hand and the lizard’s body in the other, following behind.
Sun He looked at what Sherrill called their camp ahead.
Hundreds of dwellings built with various wood, boulders, or plant leaves.
It felt like a refugee camp.
And all sorts of races were here.
There were humans, half-beasts, or blue-skinned, green-skinned, and black-skinned alien people, etc.
Sherrill took Sun He to the edge of the camp, where there were a few tents with similar building styles, and a few elf women.
“Your Highness!” The elf women all saluted Sherrill.
“This is our tent. Although this is our camp, it's best not to leave our sight.
Otherwise, you might just become someone’s dinner.” Guard Judy reminded him.
She tossed the lizard’s body to her companion: “This is the lizard we hunted. Clean it up.”
“Don’t pay too much attention to Judy. While some races here are dangerous, staying here is safer than being alone outside.
Let me take a look at your escape pod. If we can fix the communication device, maybe we can contact your friends and have them come to get you out of here.” Sherrill took the initiative to examine Sun He’s escape pod.
Originally, Sun He wanted to say there was no need to bother, he could do it himself.
But he was surprised to find that Sherrill had disassembled the escape pod’s important parts in just a few moves and quickly found the problem.
“This part is the problem. I don’t have a replacement. But if we connect this… this… like this… maybe we can make do for a short time.” Sherrill wiped the sweat off her forehead.
This elf girl’s knowledge in this area was no less than his own with system talent.
“I see them calling you princess… you actually know so much about this technology?” Sun He asked in surprise.
Sherrill didn’t hide it: “I've been interested in this area since I was a child. My parents specially hired some teachers for me, so I'm better at it.
It’s not like princesses can’t do anything.”
How could this be considered good at it? This technology could be considered a master level.
“Just wait a minute, I’ll fix it soon.” Sherrill continued to work. It seemed she really wanted to help Sun He.
“Hey, you’re overstepping your bounds!”
Just then, Sun He heard a voice arguing nearby.
Sun He looked over and saw Guard Judy and several elf women arguing with a group of human women. They were both on edge.
Unfortunately, it was the group of women he had met on the beach, apparently the elves and them weren’t on good terms.
“Who’s overstepping? This whole area belongs to us!” A woman with a scar on her face yelled.
“I drew a line here!”
“A line? Who saw it, nobody saw it.”
“You!”
“What you what, oh, you actually picked up a man. Are you so thirsty?”
The human women saw Sun He in the other group and immediately found a point to mock.
Guard Judy gripped the secret silver short blade in her hand.
“Judy, come back!” Sherrill’s voice came at this time, pulling the about-to-explode Guard Judy back from the edge of anger.
Judy pointed at the other side: “You better not cause trouble, otherwise my short blade will cut your throat!”
“Oh really, I’m waiting for you.” The human women laughed.
The argument ended.
“Don’t mind them, it’s a common occurrence here.” Sherrill wiped her forehead and crawled out of the escape pod.
“I’ve fixed your communication system, but it’s still in the testing phase. We’ll have to wait a few hours to see if it works.
You can rest first.”
“Thank you.” Sun He nodded.
At least he was safe in this camp for now.
Half a day passed quickly.
The lizard that Judy brought back had been chopped into pieces and boiled into broth, but the taste… was truly indescribable.
It was even worse than the synthetic vegetables Sun He ate on the Qingyuan.
During his break, Sun He took a look at his system.
【Captain: Sun He
Talent: Top-Tier Starship Full-Time Engineer
Reputation: 2031
Warehouse: One set of drawings for the Phantom Dragon Interstellar Fighter】
There was reputation!
It seemed that Tang Yuan and the others’ battle was going smoothly, and they knew what he had done. This was his first reward.
Let’s see what good things this reputation can exchange for.
Sun He checked the system. Every 1000 reputation points could be exchanged for a treasure chest.
Sun He chose to exchange two treasure chests directly.
【Ding, 2000 reputation points consumed to obtain two treasure chests】
Two treasure chests suddenly appeared in Sun He’s warehouse.
Just as Sun He was about to check what good things were inside.
Boom
Suddenly there was a loud bang, and the lizard broth that was still simmering in the pot was completely overturned.
“Not good! Protect your Highness!” Guard Judy sensed something and quickly protected Sherrill. Other elf women also picked up their weapons.
At the same time, the entire camp fell into chaos.
“What happened?” Sun He was a little confused.
“Some monsters are coming.” Judy said through gritted teeth.
Suddenly, cracks appeared on the ground of the camp, and many who hadn’t reacted fell into the cracks.
Countless centipedes emerged from the cracks!
These centipedes were the size of a large wolfdog, and when they jumped on a person, they just kept biting.
Some people in the camp started to fight back, while others began to flee in panic.
But fleeing was not a good option.
Sun He saw a group of people run into the forest, but soon screams came from there.
Could it be that his life after crossing would end here?
