The male supporting character was actually myself.

Although Li Zixuan was a formal employee of the traffic management department, she was already dead. In addition, when she completed the main storyline's counterattack mission, she was abandoned by everyone and had no powerful background. Who would jump out to exonerate a murderer who was "fleeing from justice"?

It's true that Meng Xiucheng was a candidate for military service but didn't enlist, but he didn't have any background or friends on the main planet.

Even if they left a backup plan to lure the military investigators to a small hotel, so what?

The room was completely destroyed, and the guest who had used false information and disguised himself, along with Meng Xiucheng, had disappeared without a trace.

With neither the person alive nor the body found, a murderer with a prior criminal record is clearly more suspicious.

Unless you go to the relevant authorities to turn yourself in and implicate me, and provide concrete evidence, no one can investigate further.

Ultimately, it will probably be classified as murder and fleeing, and Meng Xiucheng and Li Zixuan will be listed as fugitives.

"Oh, I see." After sorting things out, Feng Yuan said, "Brother, you're amazing! It feels like you have so much under control! Did you already have a plan for dealing with them before you went to that little hotel?"

Jiang Chen: ...

More than half the credit for this mission goes to the little white cat that can roam freely.

This special system, which cannot be detected by any human or system, is incredibly useful as a mobile surveillance device.

"After reviewing your clues, I feel they seem to be prophetic," Jiang Chen stated his guess. "The clue provided by the first photo is that Tang Xiaoqi has a very good relationship with the ship girls."

Joining her army might allow you to get in touch with her and perhaps catch the ship girl bandwagon, earning you a medal in interstellar war.

Feng Yuan nodded and said, "So after I learned Tang Xiaoqi's identity, I started thinking about how to join the Seventh Army. From what I'm saying, you met her when you entered the mission world before? Could you use your familiarity with her to find a way to join her despite the lower ranks?"

"It's highly unlikely that it will require that much trouble."

After all, I come with a four-wheel drive mech and some pretty good talent skills, so the Seventh Army should be very welcoming.

"After Sister Lu returns, I'll take you to test your potential. If you can pilot mechs, I have some stockpiled here. It shouldn't be difficult to apply to join the Seventh Army as a freedom fighter, with your own mech."

The little wolf looked at Jiang Chen and then at its own host, and couldn't help but cover its face with its paws. "Is this what other people's hosts are like? I'm so envious. How lucky his auxiliary system must be!"

It's probably just about eating and sleeping all day, then lying down and waiting for the host to win!

Feng Yuan opened his mouth but could only say "okay" in the end. He then continued to analyze the second photo. "After seeing the clues from Brother, the second photo is easy to explain. It seems we need to capture a skeleton warrior from the Death Galaxy and hand him over to a professional research department for study. We might gain a lot from that."

Jiang Chen nodded, but didn't dare to mention that he had already stockpiled the corpses of several skeletal warriors in his space so as not to provoke him.

"We also need to get our hands on that ring-shaped object that the ship girls are surrounding. I don't know what that thing is or where to find it. I searched on the StarNet but couldn't find any relevant information."

The ships in the Death Galaxy should all have them, though one is already lying in my system space.

We have to give credit to the little white cat for this. If it hadn't noticed the situation, it would most likely have smashed the spaceship to pieces during the fight. Who would have noticed such a small and strange device?

"That photo full of mechs, I think they're probably the key forces to winning the intergalactic war. But apart from Tang Xiaoqi's Storm, I couldn't find any information about the other pictures on the StarNet. I wonder if they're secret weapons of the military."

As for the last one, based on the clues from Brother, it should have been destroyed from inside the Death Galaxy, but how exactly to do that is a big question.

Feng Yuan tentatively inquired, "According to your instructions, my clues are prophetic."

So, first we need to find the ship girl; second, we need to get a skeletal warrior and give it to the military research institution; then we need to get the strange ring-shaped thing into the ship girl; collect all the mechs in the picture; and finally, we need to find a way to disrupt the energy inside the Death Star System, and then we can win?

"That's roughly the idea. I guess the order doesn't matter too much," Jiang Chen shrugged and smiled.

He had originally planned to take Lu Xinnan and Feng Yuan to test their potential in the afternoon. If they couldn't pilot the mecha, perhaps they could submit the skeleton warrior's corpse to the relevant department in their name, so that they would have a chance to receive a medal even if they didn't participate in the intergalactic war in the future.

I never imagined that the corpse I had taken away on a whim would come in so useful.

No wonder the main system doesn't unlock memories; if all permissions were granted, it would be possible to complete the game directly, right?

Lu Xinnan didn't return until noon. She wanted to try to get into the army through General Su Lan's connections, but it didn't seem to go very smoothly.

"The threat from the Death Galaxy is too great. The entire galaxy is currently under tight internal control but relaxed externally." She sat down, took a sip of water, and said with a slight worry, "Probably to avoid causing panic, the situation of the Death Galaxy has not been disclosed to the public in detail, but the military is constantly deploying personnel under strict control."

I knew General Su Lan's habits very well when I assisted her, but that knowledge is useless now. She's probably already preparing to go to the front lines; I couldn't find her this time.

Jiang Chen slowly carried food out of the food-making machine and said, "After all, so much time has passed, it's normal that the intelligence isn't useful. Let's wait until after we finish eating to test our psychic power. If we can pilot the mecha, we'll go directly to the military to make contact."

"Huh?" Lu Xinnan had witnessed his financial power before, and asked cautiously, "Can the military be bribed with money?"

“These are special times, and people with telekinetic talents are given special treatment.” Jiang Chen chuckled. “Besides, I have a mecha. The army is getting a few soldiers with their own mechas and clean backgrounds for free. How could they possibly disagree with such a good thing?”

Her face immediately turned red. "You're going to have to use your reserves again? That's so embarrassing. Ever since the alliance started, you've been the one arranging everything. I feel really bad about just taking advantage of you."

“We’re from the same hometown, so helping each other is only natural,” Jiang Chen said, inviting Feng Yuan, who was also a little embarrassed, to join them for dinner.

The little white cat didn't return until the three of them arrived at the nearest telekinesis testing site.

Jiang Chen sent it several messages but received no reply. He wondered if it was because the communicator was in the system space and had no signal.

"Please place the payment barcode under the scanner. After scanning, please wait to start the test..." The huge machine announced. Lu Xinnan took a deep breath and nervously placed the barcode for scanning.

Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Hope for the Propagation of the Race

A single test of telekinesis costs two thousand interstellar coins. The price isn't too high, but the results could potentially change a person's life.

After all, as long as someone has telekinesis, the military will make an exception and recruit them for special training.

If the potential value is high enough, not only can you pilot a more powerful mech, but the quality of life and status of your whole family can also undergo a qualitative change.

Therefore, families in the galaxy who have the means will immediately take their children to have their telekinetic abilities tested as soon as they turn sixteen.

At this moment, Jiang Chen and the others stood out among a group of young men and women.

"I'm so nervous, bro! What if I can't pilot the mecha?" Feng Yuan was so nervous that his leg kept shaking. What boy doesn't dream of piloting a mecha?

My physical telekinetic potential wasn't high when I entered the mission world last time, and I only spent about twenty years on a small planet selflessly dedicating myself to the protagonist, so I really didn't have the ability or strength to try piloting a mecha.

If the body I use this time is still so useless, my mecha dream will have to be put on hold again.

A moment later, Lu Xinnan came out of the testing room with a slightly pale face.

"Damn it, it looks like Sister Lu failed the test." Feng Yuan became even more nervous, and his hand holding the payment barcode began to tremble.

Lu Xinnan took a moment to compose herself before forcing a smile. "My psychic power level is A, and it's already imprinted in my personal chip. The testing process was a bit dizzying, so be prepared."

Feng Yuan: ...

If I don't have any telekinesis after the test, am I doomed?!

The little wolf was also extremely nervous, muttering under his breath, "Host, you must live up to expectations! Not to mention that the golden thigh has fought monsters and aliens in mecha, now Sister Lu has A-level telekinesis and can pilot large mechas. You absolutely mustn't become the one who drags us down!"

"I...I'm going in!" Feng Yuan gritted his teeth and opened the door to the testing room.

Two anxious minutes passed, and as the dizziness gradually subsided, he heard the machine announce: "Congratulations, your test result is Grade S. This information has been entered into your chip. Thank you for using it."

"Yay! We can finally pilot the mecha!" The little wolf jumped up excitedly, sticking out his tongue and patting his head with his paw. "Now I don't have to worry anymore. Clinging to the big shot will make meritorious contributions a breeze!"

With their meticulous planning, even preparing traps after a rescue, I figured they'd be a guaranteed winner once they got to the battlefield.

Feng Yuan was both excited and happy. He rushed out of the testing room and grinned as he shared the good news with the two of them.

"Without further ado, let's go report to the military."

If someone were to pay close attention, they would surely notice that the military district on the main planet was somewhat different from usual. Not only was it heavily guarded and everyone looked solemn and serious, but even the recruitment office had several more windows.

"Hello, how can I help you? Please swipe the chip on the window screen first, thank you for your cooperation." Jiang Chen randomly selected a window for a humanoid race, and the other party asked in a formulaic manner as soon as he sat down.

"drop!"

Jiang Chen swiped his wrist, and his basic personal information was displayed on the screen.

Name: Jiang Chen;

Race: Royal Family of the Argon Cluster

Age: 23 years old;

Psychic power: SS rank...

The office worker first clicked on the machine in front of her to check for any bad records, but when she looked up at the detailed information, she was stunned.

“Afu Argon Planet? The Sixth Prince?! Your Highness!” The female staff member, who was about forty years old, hurriedly stood up and gave him the greeting of Afu Argon Planet. “My name is Bai Qiu. I came to the main planet from Afu Argon Planet to study two hundred years ago and eventually stayed here to work and live.”

You...you...I heard from inside sources that the Argon Cluster has already..."

Bai Qiu looked at the other person with red eyes and full of expectation, hoping that the news she received was false.

However, upon hearing this, Jiang Chen lowered his eyes and made a mourning gesture unique to the planet Argon, saying, "The star cluster has been destroyed by the dead star system. I went through many twists and turns to come to the main star, and now I just want to join the regular army and go to the front line."

"Please come to the reception room for a detailed discussion, Your Highness!" Bai Qiu wiped his eyes, his voice slightly hoarse, and hurriedly stood up to signal.

She then whispered something to the other staff members, and someone came over to sit at the window for her.

Bai Qiu came out from inside and led Jiang Chen and his group to a staff-only meeting room on one side of the lobby.

"I know that there are about a thousand people on the main planet of Argon."

Having briefly learned about the situation of the star cluster, Bai Qiu said in a trembling voice, "There are also many of our people on other planets, most of whom, like me, stayed behind to get married and have children for work or other reasons."

My husband comes from a secondary planet in the Argon Cluster.

According to galactic regulations, a child can only be registered as a citizen of the same planet if both parents belong to the same star group.

Therefore, our Afu Arg people are relatively concentrated. Who wouldn't want their children to inherit the culture and customs of their race?

Your Highness, may I have the honor of inviting your contact number to Afu Arg's chat group?

We were all scattered like sand before, unaware of the existence of others. Later, we met a young man who worked on a smuggling ship on a secondary planet in the Argon Cluster. He traveled around and knew many people. At first, he just helped to play matchmaker or introduce people to each other.

Later, they simply created a dedicated group for the Argon Cluster.

We've been feeling very anxious lately.

However, there is very little information about the Argon Cluster.

If you could briefly explain the situation to everyone in the group...

Feng Yuan and Lu Xinnan looked at each other in bewilderment.

For them, identity is merely a necessary condition for completing the main quest.

Participating in the assessment competition should naturally focus on completing one's own tasks. Having already obtained the rewards for the main quests, what's the point of talking about a group of people who were only connected to the original owner?

"This kind of plot doesn't help complete the mission, so he'll definitely refuse," Little Wolf said with his tongue sticking out. "After all, the next mission is to win the intergalactic war and gain merit, which requires merging upwards."

The people Bai Qiu was talking about were at most fellow villagers scattered throughout the galaxy, with no value to him.

"Contacting him is pointless. He left after the assessment competition; what chance does he have of restoring the kingdom or anything?"

Jiang Chen's eyes lit up as he took out his communicator and added Bai Qiu as a friend. He was then added to a large group of more than 5,000 people.

The group also has separate chat rooms, arranged according to different planets.
