The sixth prince carries the hopes of the entire star cluster, ensuring the continuation of his race; he also seeks to avenge all the sacrificed lives of the star cluster!

But what did we do?

Internal strife, robbery, murder to cover up wrongdoing...

Some people were already charging forward shouting slogans to kill the sixth prince, while a dozen or so young men and women retreated to a corner, at a loss.

"We can't keep making this mistake!" a slightly dark-skinned girl suddenly shouted. "Our families have all been sacrificed; our homes are gone; our race is about to be destroyed! If we live with greed and evil, what hope is there for our race?"

With trembling hands, she drew her pistol and began attacking the men who were attacking the sixth prince from behind.

Gunshots rang out and blood flowed everywhere in the huge restaurant on the third floor.

However, people outside the Wanlihua Hotel did not hear a sound. Even the front desk staff on the first floor were still humming songs and watching TV, as if all sounds had been blocked out and disappeared.

Chapter 7 Mission World Unlocked

Jiang Chen didn't make a move; at least Morito didn't see the young man with the faint smile make any move. He just stood there straight and tall, a hint of disdain and a sneer on his face.

More and more bullets floated in front of him, spinning rapidly before gradually losing power and stopping for a second before falling to the ground and bouncing up with a crisp sound.

"You...you've awakened a special talent?" Morito's voice trembled. He took two steps back, intending to escape, but was stopped by an invisible barrier!

There was clearly nothing in front of him, yet he could still feel the threat of death!

It seemed that if he took another step forward, he would be beheaded!

Within seconds, the gunfire had ceased.

Those who shot Jiang Chen were already dead and lying on the ground; others were killed by bullets from behind, lying haphazardly in the restaurant, their thick, bright red blood slowly flowing, the stench of blood filling the air and making people nauseous.

"Your Highness!" Apart from the young men and women who had come to their senses at the back of the hall, Morido was the only survivor. Knowing that he could not escape, he knelt down and begged for mercy.

"I know I was wrong! I beg the Sixth Prince to spare my life for the sake of our race's survival! You...you have now awakened a powerful special talent, and you will surely lead our people to establish a new star cluster and guide our race to glory! I...I am willing to give my life..."

Jiang Chen put his hands in his pockets, glanced down at him, and said calmly with a cold smile, "You said the same thing when I rescued you from the hyena pack."

That's it?

I was hoping you could come up with some imaginative and fresh words, but I'm so disappointed.

If you choose to betray, you must be prepared to be killed in return.

"No! Your Highness, I..." Morido didn't have time to say any more nonsense before he suddenly grabbed his throat with both hands, as if something was choking him, completely cutting him off from fresh air.

He stood there, struggling and convulsing in an extremely bizarre posture, and after a moment, he died with a thud, kneeling in front of Jiang Chen, his bloodshot eyes bulging out, as if he were dead beyond dead.

“You…” He bent down and pulled the chain off Morito’s neck; the deep blue crystal felt cold to the touch.

After casually storing the items into his system space, Jiang Chen turned his gaze to the dozen or so boys and girls who had suddenly repented. "Since you have managed to pull back from the brink, I will spare your lives. If you feel guilty, then leave behind new seeds and hope for your race."

Tell your descendants to remember the glorious history of Argon.

Many innocent kinsmen have died at your hands. Even if you didn't do it yourself, you were accomplices. Your crimes don't warrant death, but you no longer deserve the gifts of Afu'a.

Jiang Chen put all the large suitcases into his system space, then casually took out a fist-sized energy crystal core from one of them and placed it on the table. "This is Afu Argon's last act of mercy towards you. Think about your families, think about the education you received, and walk your own path from now on."

Betrayal itself is unforgivable, but these people are the last remaining members of the race on Planet Argon.

Having taken over the body of the sixth prince, who was supposed to survive with his broken body and ultimately perish with the rebels, I fear that after completing the assessment competition, I will leave the mission world and be unable to allow the Argon civilization to continue its glory. It would be better to leave some hope behind.

As long as they stop being greedy, that crystal core will be enough for them to settle down and transition smoothly in the fourth district, leaving a glimmer of hope for Argon.

Jiang Chen walked calmly as he arrived, and no one noticed him until he went downstairs and left the hotel.

"Host, the main quest is complete!" The little white cat excitedly jumped over, hugged his neck, rubbed its face against him, and cheered happily.

[Congratulations on completing the main quest. The entire quest world is now unlocked. You can travel anywhere to find other hosts and undertake hunting missions.]

The main system notification also arrived shortly afterward.

Almost as soon as the reminder was finished, a faint glow suddenly appeared inside a seemingly barren planet deep in the universe. Amy, who was sleeping, opened her eyes, stretched, and excitedly called to her sisters, "Huh? I can feel the Captain's presence. Is it just my imagination?"

"It's not your imagination! I felt it too!"

"Well, it's definitely the Captain who's back!"

"After so many years of hibernation, we are full of energy. Let's set off to find the Captain!"

"Okay, okay, I can only sense the general direction. Let's set off first and then slowly find the exact location."

"Great! I'm so happy to see the Captain again after a good night's sleep!"

"Let's get moving, sisters, and embark on the journey to find the Captain!"

……

The ship girls became active, and the once dark interior of the planet gradually brightened. The aimlessly drifting, desolate planet found its direction and moved forward at full speed.

"boom!"

The levitation train disappeared down the street, leaving a trail of light. Jiang Chen leaned back in the driver's seat, set up automatic driving, and then began to squint as he absorbed the memories unlocked by the main system.

It was only then that the screams from the third-floor lobby alerted the front desk staff.

When the duty manager notified the security team to arrive, the lobby was filled with blood and corpses, and the suitcases containing huge sums of money had vanished.

There were no survivors, no witnesses, and not even any valuable footage was captured by the surveillance cameras. Nearly a hundred people in the entire hotel, including other guests, did not hear a sound.

After checking the check-in information, due to the large number of people, only the specific number was indicated but not all of them were registered. It was only known that fifteen people were missing from the group, but there were no other clues.

Ultimately, the Black Eye Planet Fourth District Guards classified it as an internal conflict within the group, where members killed each other over the theft of property.

The enormous wealth was highly coveted, but after several investigations, they ultimately failed to obtain any information about the fifteen missing people, and the speculated rare treasures never reappeared.

"Sir, where are we going next?" After sitting at the shop entrance until mid-afternoon, Ryan finally saw the military vehicle return and hurriedly went up to ask.

Jiang Chen rolled down the car window and handed him the completed District 4 permit. Taking advantage of the moment of shaking hands, he swiped 100,000 interstellar coins onto the chip on the white-haired boy's thin wrist and said in a low voice, "Don't let anyone know. Be careful."

He then said in a normal voice that everyone in the shop could hear, "This is your payment. I'm leaving Black Eye Planet."

"Huh?!" Renn was startled when he saw the account balance on his chip. His hand holding the document trembled slightly as he said, "Sir, this is far too... valuable. Thank you!"

Jiang Chen had already started the hovercar and it was slowly moving. He took a few steps after it, thanked it profusely, and finally bowed deeply to the vehicle that was getting further and further away.

"Worth several thousand silver coins, this kid is really lucky!" the old man muttered under his breath as he exhaled a smoke ring.

Those who survive on Black Eye Planet are all extraordinary people, and he was just doing his best to speak up for them.

If Jiang Chen refuses to leave his identification, he certainly won't help him. After all, there are too many pitiful people on Black Eye Star, and he still has children and grandchildren to take care of.

If the customer is generous, saying just a few words can leave a good impression and earn you favors, which will always be useful in the future since you'll both be working in the same area.

Despite his young age, Ryan is very worldly-wise.

Only after Jiang Chen's car was out of sight did he get up to thank the old man, and then declined his invitation.

He planned to first visit various job markets to check out the cost of living in the fourth district, and then decide where to find a stable area to rent a small house and study for a few years.

100,000 Star Coins, if used sparingly, should last for many years...

Chapter Eight: Invaders Can Never Be Forgiven!

"Beep beep beep! Beep beep beep!" Just as Jiang Chen's car approached the special passage at dusk, a rapid alarm suddenly sounded in the air.

Suddenly, a huge wall fell down and blocked the entrance to the passage that had not yet been opened.

"Attention all residents of Zone 4! The planet's surface air purification system has been attacked, and our forces are engaged in fierce combat with the invaders. All residents are advised to remain in Zone 4 and refrain from entering or leaving the area. Special passages are now closed. If you wish to support the battle, please use the alternative passage opened in Zone 5 to reach the surface."

Attention all residents of District 4…

The broadcast echoed throughout the space, and the little white cat clung nervously to its host's arm, trembling. "Host, is this a nightmare-level start? We just finished a mission and now a new crisis is looming!"

"Crisis?" Jiang Chen glanced at the unlocked mech in the system space and smiled faintly. "Isn't this just giving us experience points?"

If the invaders are the vanguard of a dead galaxy, engaging them in combat would at least reveal their attack methods, which might prove useful in the final battle.

Little white cat: ……

My host is too brave, what should I do?

If it weren't for the fact that all the hosts are currently taking the assessment, and that posting on the forum to complain might expose their own hosts as hunting targets, it would really like to have a serious talk about this!

Unable to use the special passage, Jiang Chen turned the car around and headed towards District 5.

The broadcast continued, and many people in District Four wore worried expressions, creating a climate of fear. Meanwhile, the guard units were being urgently redeployed. The situation on the surface was undoubtedly dire; otherwise, the army would normally be sufficient to ensure the safety of the air purifiers, eliminating the need to draw guard units from various districts to reinforce them.

After swiping your card to enter Zone 5, you'll see a backup passage that has been set up.

The entire maglev train corridor, which had been shut down, was now fully open, and military vehicles were moving directly from the corridor to the ground in a tense but orderly manner.

"Sir, do you need me to arrange for you to enter the backup passage?" The soldier in charge of dispatch saw the markings on his vehicle and assumed that the other party was a member of the army stationed on the surface, so he stepped forward to ask.

The little white cat scratched at the seat with its two paws, and whispered, "Host, do we really want to join the battle? Now that the main quest is complete, we don't need to stay on Black Eye Planet anymore. Shouldn't we hurry up and find other hosts to enter the hunting phase?"

"If we get involved in a planetary war, what if we lose the initiative due to prolonged delays, and then can't find an easy host to attack?"

Jiang Chen gestured for them to enter the passage, and only after they started moving quickly did he say in a low voice, "Xiao Bai, you've been with me for so long, how come you haven't developed any courage yet?"

Even ignoring the invasion war on Black Eye Planet, if we want to leave here, we need to go to the surface and release the spaceships that we previously stored in the system space before we can go to other planets.

Could it be... you want to squeeze into those smuggled spaceships?

The main system just released a portion of my memories. I remember you were so nervous on that spaceship, afraid the smugglers would try to steal your money and kill you. Isn't it safer to pilot the spaceship ourselves this time?"

"That makes sense!" The little white cat tilted its head, looking a bit conflicted.

The backup route was built for the rapid transport of military vehicles. Now, traveling uphill on the unobstructed road, they quickly passed through most of District 5.

"Hey? That's Han Lie's shop. What happened?" The fluffy little girl spotted the familiar street, stood up, and looked around curiously. "Is this a war on the surface, and the fake document makers are getting into trouble?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen glanced at the car, turned on his turn signal, and turned directly from the backup lane onto the side street, parking his car right across from Han Lie's shop.

The crowd was noisy and shouting something, and the small shop was packed with people.

The entire Fifth District was in chaos, with many people trying to find smuggled spaceships to squeeze onto and leave Blackeye Planet; even more people followed the main force to the entrance of the Fourth District, hoping that some rumors were true and that the army would open the gates to let them take refuge in the Fourth District during this special period.

"Don't worry, don't worry, I won't leave!" Han Lie had a lollipop tucked behind his right ear, his hands busy working on a large machine that had been moved to the center of the shop.

As soon as a certificate is printed, he picks it up and throws it over, always managing to get it accurately into the applicant's hand.

"Those who have finished getting their certificates, hurry up and go to Zone 4. Those who haven't, come forward! Only I know how to operate this machine. I won't leave even if others leave, so don't worry!" Han Lie was busy entering information while shouting and explaining, "Those who don't have enough money, hurry up and think of a solution. I don't have that much money to cover your expenses."

"This isn't something I can control. They only upload the information if the money is paid in full; otherwise, it's just an empty card that won't open the door. One person, one card is required to get in. Don't try to squeeze in; it's useless..."
