Fate Trading System – Chapter 117

Plan A

Interstellar Guardian 2

Chopping the Bird

Su Xin clicked her tongue twice and began to go out to forage for food.

Speaking of this ghostly place, it seemed there wasn’t much good food.

She wasn’t sure if those insect beasts were edible. Su Xin thought carefully for a moment, realized she had no memory of this, and decided to boldly try it out first.

There’s nothing in this world that Chinese people can’t eat. The people regard food as their heaven, so one must always be brave enough to try.

Su Xin walked a few steps, and finding it fun, walked two more steps.

Ah, this feeling of walking around with a ding-ding was truly indescribable.

Several pioneer insect beasts were now roaming on the B-32 star. Su Xin swallowed when she saw their appearance.

They looked like crabs!

She didn’t know if they had crab roe, but that wasn’t important. Su Xin had her eyes on their legs. Wow, such a big one, the meat inside must be plentiful.

The pioneer insect beasts were roaming, searching for traces of Su Xin.

They had a feeling that the human must be here and hadn’t left.

The insect beasts were acting separately. After all, this was a planet, albeit a small one, but it still had the basic planetary area.

Su Xin’s light brain was broken, so she could only judge the position by herself.

Su Xin moved nimbly and slid out. Before the insect beast could react, a laser gun had already pierced its brain, ending its life.

Unlike humans who have multiple vital points, insect beasts only have one – their brain.

And because of their enormous size, one must use a mecha to fight them.

Su Xin had taken a big risk. She stood at a high point and struck quickly and accurately. If she had been off by even a little bit, the result might have been different.

Su Xin jumped and used the laser knife to cut off the insect beast’s large pincers. Seeing the meat inside, she was incredibly excited.

It’s edible!

Su Xin had once heard a true story from the past era when locusts passed through during a drought, causing a famine.

People had eaten everything edible, grass on the ground, bark from trees. People were barely surviving.

At that time, the brooms in every household were those especially large brooms. With a casual wave in the sky, you could swat down a pile of locusts.

People came up with a method. At that time, didn’t every family use big pots? They would heat the pot until it was very hot, swat down a pile of locusts and put them in the pot, then press the lid down tightly.

The locusts would keep flying inside, keep crashing, until they finally gave up the ghost (idiomatic expression – meaning to die or stop functioning).

The taste of the meat wasn’t bad, crispy and crunchy.

What was originally a major natural disaster that was hard to solve was forcibly eaten up by people.

After roasting the insect legs with the igniter from her outdoor survival kit, Su Xin ate while pondering life.

These insect beasts were quite cute, just wondering if there were any like lobsters. Probably not, they couldn’t walk, what a pity.

Now, the food in the interstellar era was all some kind of nutrient liquid. Although there were many flavors of nutrient liquid, wasn’t it all sticky and gooey? How could it compare to the satisfaction of this?

After Su Xin had eaten her fill, she conservatively drank some water. Not eating for a few days was no problem, but water was necessary.

Now she was thinking about how to leave this place. The original owner was sent here by someone in a flying vehicle. Su Xin would bet there definitely wouldn’t be a flying vehicle coming to take her back. This was really not good.

But the mecha was broken and couldn’t perform space jumps.

Su Xin understood why the original owner said she couldn’t leave this place. There was simply no way to leave.

She couldn’t just stroll between planets either. If she relied on walking, she probably would never get out.

Moreover, it was so dangerous here, and supplies were insufficient. Who knows when she might kick the bucket.

A dead end.

Su Xin began to communicate with her great system.

Fourteen Master Fourteen, Master Fourteen, is there any way to repair my mecha?

【Of course.】

What’s the price?

【One-fourth.】

Another three months???

【Correct.】

These days, it’s not easy to earn a bit of life.

【These days, it’s not easy to give a bit of life either.】

Fourteen indicated that there was no room for negotiation, dear.

Exchange.

If she didn’t exchange, there was simply no way to leave this place. If she couldn’t leave this place, how could she carry out her next mission?

Just like in the previous world, she had to know where the important figures were.

Su Xin touched the pendant on her neck and summoned her mecha.

So cool.

The name of this mecha was Fireworks, with a sleek silver body, very handsome.

As soon as Su Xin sat down, she heard the voice of artificial intelligence.

“Master, multiple enemies detected in the surrounding area. Do you want to enter combat mode?”

Don’t enter, silly child. You must have forgotten how you were wrecked before.

“Perform space jump,” Su Xin commanded.

“Space jump coordinates, A-16 star.”

The feeling of space jumping was really not good. Su Xin felt like she was sitting on a pirate ship, being tossed back and forth rapidly.

Toxic (contemporary slang – meaning extremely unpleasant or unbearable).

Because the spatial span of the jump was too large, the time was also quite long.

Su Xin, dizzy and disoriented, got off the mecha and saw many red dots on her body.

Su Xin’s body stiffened. She was very familiar with these red dots. Not long ago, she had used such things to kill an insect beast.

Someone discovered the military uniform on her body and ordered the weapons to be removed from her.

“Who are you? Why are you here?”

Someone walked forward. Su Xin looked at his military rank, which was higher than hers.

“Sir, I am Ge Wei, captain of the Third Squad of the Second Army. I have very important military secrets to report to General Renee! Due to the urgency of the situation, I chose to space jump. The matter is extremely urgent!”

Su Xin gave a military salute, her expression serious.

The person looked her up and down, demanding to check her light brain.

“Report, sir, my light brain has been maliciously damaged and cannot be used normally.”

In fact, if the original owner had been smart, she should have space jumped to escape at the first opportunity. But obviously, the person who sent her knew what kind of personality she had. Sure enough, the original owner had even wrecked her own mecha.

That person frowned and told her to wait there.

Renee was in the process of approving military affairs when she heard about this matter. She raised an eyebrow, turned her chair, interlaced her fingers, and had the person brought in.

When Su Xin saw Renee, she was stunned. The woman in military uniform looked very imposing, with the air of a person in power. Those eyes were cold, seeming to carry a chill.

“What military secret do you have to tell me?” Renee asked, leaning back in her chair.

Even her voice carried a sense of control, making it difficult for people to regard her as a Beta.

Su Xin understood why everyone called this general the Thorny Rose of the military. Her appearance was too alluring, like a rich and fragrant rose, but her methods were too bloody. Those who tried to grasp her ended up with hands full of wounds.

“General, I want to speak to you alone,” Su Xin said solemnly, looking at the people standing around.

The irrelevant people all withdrew, leaving only Su Xin and Renee in the highly protected room.

“Stay away from me.”

Su Xin had just taken a step closer when she heard Renee say this.

The beautiful general made no effort to hide her disgust, seeming particularly sensitive in this regard.

Su Xin recounted everything she had heard and experienced, of course not mentioning that she had wrecked her mecha in a fight. She only said that she came over immediately upon discovering something was wrong.

Mecha space jumps all have fixed landing points, and some places absolutely prohibit space jumps. This is why Su Xin was targeted by so many laser guns as soon as she arrived.

“I see. I will pay attention to it,” Renee nodded thoughtfully. She turned her chair slightly and began to use her light brain to access files.

Second Army, Third Squad Captain, Ge Wei, female Alpha, indeed correct.

If what she said was all true, a flash of ruthlessness passed through Renee’s eyes, then quickly disappeared.

“Ge Wei, do you want to go back now?”

“No, no, no. In fact, General, you know how dangerous it is, especially when my superior also wants to target me. Intending to harm an Alpha is a serious crime, but I don’t think I can prosecute him.”

Su Xin shrugged, indicating her unwillingness to return.

“Can I stay and be a member of your guard team, or even your personal protector?”

Su Xin requested with very sincere eyes.

“I think you should know that I have no good feelings towards Alphas approaching me.”

Betas are considered the backbone of ordinary people. They can also be marked, just not as strongly as Omegas, and their scent is not as strong.

But even without releasing her pheromones, Renee was so alluring that it’s no wonder some people wanted to forcibly mark her.

But it should be known that if a general were to be marked, she would no longer be able to stand in the military.

Renee, being a female Beta, naturally didn’t have the ability to mark others.

“What if I don’t have the ability to mark people? Would I then be able to follow General’s side?”

Su Xin said calmly. Aish (Korean interjection expressing frustration), goodbye to the ding-ding that had accompanied her for half a day.

Su Xin was a bit excited when she first had a big ding-ding, but if it was necessary for the mission, no matter how regrettable, she could give it up. After all, she didn’t originally have this thing, so it’s no big deal if it’s gone.

Renee was shocked by her words, her face showing a moment of astonishment.

“This… is of course a necessary prerequisite, but there’s another prerequisite – you must have enough ability for me to be sure of you.”

“Of course, as long as I can follow General’s side, Ge Wei can do anything!”

Su Xin thought, she must sound like a brain-dead fan now, right?

“Then let me see your determination.”

Renee propped her chin, with a half-smile.

How could there be an Alpha willing to give up their thing, let alone the ability to mark others? That was their innate nature of plunder and occupation.

“General, can you find a hospital for me? My light brain is broken now and I can’t perform any activities.”

Su Xin thought, don’t underestimate the power of a brain-dead fan.

“Naturally.”

Goodbye, my transgender body.

Goodbye, my big ding-ding.

Actually, Su Xin still wanted to sigh a bit, standing to pee was quite convenient.

“This patient, you want to…”

The doctor had never seen someone so determined to do this.

“Yes, chop the bird.”
