The male supporting character was actually myself.

"My hunting mission is complete, thank you." Feng Yuan trembled slightly as he handed the blood-stain-free dagger to Jiang Chen, thanking him again: "Thank you for saving me and helping me complete my mission. I, Feng Yuan, am willing to repay you with my life!"

Jiang Chen waved his hand and laughed, "It was nothing, no need to be so polite."

"I...I received a notification from the military. If I die, the military will definitely investigate! I left clues before I came, so you won't be able to escape..." Meng Xiucheng couldn't finish his threat before he suddenly felt a chill in his throat.

The bloody liquid began to flow uncontrollably down his throat, and he coughed violently.

Meng Xiucheng soon realized he couldn't breathe. Before he died, he looked down at his blood-soaked chest and suddenly realized that he had been slit in the throat without even noticing!

[Congratulations on completing the hunt and qualifying for the finals. Only those who help the galaxy win and earn a third-class or higher merit before the end of the assessment rounds will pass the final assessment.]

As Meng Xiucheng's body disintegrated and disappeared, the main system also sounded a timely reminder.

At the same time, Jiang Chen received a clue from the killed contestant: only two teams had the best chance of winning the intergalactic battle, one was the Ever-Victorious Army led by General Su Lan, and the other was the Seventh Army led by Tang Xiaoqi.

"Tang Xiaoqi?" He couldn't help but laugh. "I wonder if she's started to look like a girl now."

Chapter Thirty-Five: Clues and Jiang Chen's Reflections

The little white cat rubbed against his face and purred lazily. "How about I go and check things out for you, host? You look nothing like you used to, she definitely won't recognize you."

"With your current identity, joining the army seems a bit troublesome, Host."

"Tang Xiaoqi?" Feng Yuan was slightly taken aback, then couldn't help but ask with joy, "Is the new clue you obtained related to her?"

So, when you entered the interstellar mission world before, did you know her?

Here's the thing: I chose Nightmare mode and just finished the main quest and arrived at the main planet.

The clues I have are some images, and so far I only know that one of them is General Tang Xiaoqi.

In the scene where she appears, the most famous four-wheel drive mech, Storm, stands on a futuristic starship, while she appears to be very intimate with several girls whose figures are somewhat blurry.

To be honest, I was just a science student when I was alive, and what I struggled with most was describing pictures and analyzing scenarios.

I looked at those pictures over and over again for a long time but still couldn't figure out what they were all about. If the main system hadn't told me that these things were crucial clues, I would have thought they were just computer wallpapers!

Also, I obtained clues about the target after completing the hunting mission.

His clue was: the most important secret weapon to win the interstellar war was the advanced ship girls.

They slumber in space, awaiting awakening. If you obtain ship girls and utilize them properly, there's an 80% chance of victory.

"Only 80%?!" the little white cat exclaimed. "Is the Death Galaxy that powerful? Last time we almost completely crushed them, and the ship girls still had more than half of their energy left after the interstellar war!"

Jiang Chen: ? ? ?

The main system still won't grant me access to all my memories?

Could it be that my experience in the mission world last time involved some kind of secret?

Feng Yuan hadn't recovered from the fear of killing when he extended his slightly trembling right hand and handed over a glowing red gem. "This is a clue I got. After completing that mission to steal the Heart of Flame, the clue was hidden in this gem."

I'm not sure if you can see those images with it; maybe you'll get more information from it than I can interpret.

Jiang Chen hesitated for a moment and instead of taking the gemstone, asked, "It's too late now, and it's not safe for you to stay in this hotel."

If you don't mind, you can come with me to a safe place to rest.

I want to ask you some questions on the way.

"No problem!" Feng Yuan was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked him, "Thank you so much for taking me in, brother! Thank you, thank you!"

The little wolf finally relaxed, leaning on his shoulder and panting heavily, "Host, you can finally cling to a powerful figure and stop worrying! Although this person may not help you with everything, at least being tied to this big shot for now means you can get a good night's sleep."

"Host, please take him back. I need to find Tang Xiaoqi to investigate the situation. Let's keep in touch!" After becoming a walking surveillance camera, the little white cat truly felt that there were many ways it could help. It couldn't wait to gather more clues for its host, who knew when they might come in handy!

Jiang Chen glanced at the excited little ball of fluff and said helplessly, "That's fine too."

The little white cat, completely unaware of its special nature, hopped and skipped away into the dark street. As he led Feng Yuan away from the hotel toward his car, he asked Feng Yuan about things that happened before he died.

He didn't take any clues earlier because he was more interested in knowing information about the other party.

Feng Yuan was clearly very open and honest with his savior.

Before the two even arrived at the small courtyard that Jiang Chen had bought, he had already figured out the basic situation of the other party.

Feng Yuan is twenty-four years old this year.

Before his death, Feng Yuan was a graduate student in the Physics Department of Huadu University. Unlike Jiang Chen and others, Feng Yuan remembered that the time of his accident was April 21st. He remembered very clearly that he was walking back to his dormitory after eating lunch at the school cafeteria that day, passing by dormitory building No. 3. At that time, he only heard a "bang" and then he knew nothing more.

When Feng Yuan opened his eyes again, he had been passively bound to the auxiliary system and pulled into the mission world.

"I think it's most likely something thrown from a high-rise building." Sitting in the passenger seat, Feng Yuan said with a pained expression, "Those freshmen are just too much!"

Don't they know that even an egg, after being subjected to gravitational acceleration, can kill a person when falling from a tall building?

Judging from the timeline you mentioned, I guess I'm still lying in the hospital, not completely dead yet. Otherwise, what's the point of accumulating medals if I'm already dead?

No matter how powerful the main system is, it can't turn back time in our real world, right?

Wouldn't that create complete chaos?

"Brother, how did you die?"

After Geng Zhi asked that question, the atmosphere in the car became a little awkward. The little wolf covered his face with his paws and sighed, "Please, host, don't talk like that in the future. It's too damn easy to get beaten up."

"I don't know either." Jiang Chen shook his head, his lips twitching. "I have no memory of what happened before I died, or rather, I only remember lying down to sleep on the night of May 7th, and I think I even had a dream."

Then I was suddenly pulled into the mission world, and I didn't believe the system when they explained it to me.

Feng Yuan poked his face and frowned, saying, "I see. Then it's possible that he died suddenly."

What do you do for a living, bro? Are you under a lot of pressure most of the time?

I have a senior in college who is like that.

After graduating from the physics department, he couldn't find a job that matched his skills, so his family arranged for him to do some kind of electronic research and development.

I already had little experience, and the company environment was tense and oppressive.

As a result, that senior student was under too much pressure, often staying up until midnight, not eating or sleeping well, and experiencing various anxieties.

I had been working at the company for less than six months. One night, while working overtime, I sat in front of the computer and said I felt very tired and wanted to take a break. I lay down and never got up again.

Sigh, I hope I can accumulate enough medals soon to redeem a chance to be reborn.

Otherwise, if they had to spend so much time in the hospital and the person hadn't even died in the end, my parents would have been so heartbroken!

Jiang Chen drove in silence.

He was still pondering what Feng Yuan had just said—no matter how powerful the main system is, it can't possibly turn back time in our real world, right?

Judging from the development of these mission worlds, the main system can definitely control their timelines.

Otherwise, how could the system always arrange for the host to enter the mission world at exactly the point where the script begins?

The so-called "real world" in which I live is really no different from these mission worlds. Who can guarantee that it is really reality and not some mission world controlled by the main system?

It is now known that the technology used by the main system to erase or graft memories is quite advanced.

If a host does complete a mission and gains a chance to be reborn, the main system will fold or even "transplant" their memories, adjust the timeline, and put the person back, just like updating a script.

Furthermore, if the script modification is directly under the main system, there should be fewer bugs.

Even if a few individuals among the masses trigger a butterfly effect, it probably won't cause much of a stir. After all, life doesn't have a set script, and how many truly chosen ones are there?

Chapter Thirty-Six: Are They Ship Girls?

When the hovercar arrived at the courtyard, it was already slightly light.

Lu Xinnan tossed and turned all night, barely able to sleep. When she heard the courtyard gate open, she jumped out of bed, threw on a coat, and rushed downstairs.

"Sister Lu, you woke up so early? Did we wake you up?" Jiang Chen introduced them to each other.

Feng Yuan, who joined later, hurriedly shook hands, thanked him, and introduced himself.

After the three of them sat down, Jiang Chen checked the time and it was already morning. He was tired and hungry after working all night, so he took out a sumptuous meal from the food maker and invited the two of them to have breakfast first.

"Was the process really that thrilling and exciting?" After listening to Feng Yuan's vivid description, which was full of embellishments and onomatopoeia, Lu Xinnan looked at Jiang Chen with awe. "My God, what kind of main quest did you do to get such a terrifying racial talent?"

He picked up a slice of beef, chewed it slowly, and after swallowing it, he explained slowly and deliberately: "It wasn't that difficult. I was just thrown off the spaceship by the rebels, and then the rebels shot me in the head. Then I landed on the Black Eye planet, which is full of poison gas and monsters."

After walking for about half a month, I found the entrance to the dungeon, caught up with and killed the rebels to complete the quest "The Vengeful Prince," and my racial talent skill awakened.

He was thrown off the spaceship;

He narrowly escaped a fatal blow while experiencing rapid descent, lack of oxygen, and an inability to maintain his balance.

You need to stabilize yourself before you fall to the ground and then find and put on your spacesuit to protect yourself from the corrosive gas.

Traveling for half a month through a toxic landscape teeming with monsters;

Kill the rebels...

Lu Xinnan had only heard him casually mention the prince's mission of revenge, but she didn't know that he would have to go through so many crises and trials. Now that she knew the details, she frowned slightly and thought about how she would deal with such a situation if she were given one.

“No, I’ll die when I land on the ground.” Feng Yuan thought about it seriously for a moment, then shook his head and said, “I don’t have any tools that allow me to fly or stay in the air for a short time.”

Being thrown from the spaceship, I could use two gadgets to deal with the oxygen deprivation and the physical damage from the rapid descent, but I couldn't land safely.

"I do have a B-grade item that allows me to glide briefly, and I can use an A-grade item to dodge an attack; plus a protective shield to protect my body from oxygen deprivation and impact damage, but I don't have a spacesuit in my space."

After all, it's been too long since I last came to the interstellar world to complete a mission.

Back then, the main system didn't allow storing futuristic items in space. Without a spacesuit to protect me from the poison gas, I wouldn't have survived more than a few minutes after landing on the ground.

Even with a spacesuit, I could never traverse through a horde of monsters for half a month.

"At most three days, I'll run out of my stored items and get trampled to death by the monster."

After listening to their analysis, Jiang Chen shrugged and said vaguely, "I'm quite lucky; I have plenty of props and items in my space."

Even after he returned to his room, washed up, and lay down to rest, he was still carefully recalling the memories of the main system's opening.

At the time, mechs were not allowed to be taken out of the interstellar mission world from the system space, so why were other things allowed to be taken out of the system space?

Mechs are futuristic items, but what about interstellar suits, hovercars, and even laser guns?

Is there a bug in the main system?

Or... is it because the little white cat put these things into the space?

Jiang Chen drew the curtains and lay on the comfortable bed, but he couldn't figure out what was going on until he drifted off to sleep.
