Chapter 1677: Chapter 1677

"Wrong is wrong, correcting it promptly, I refuse to believe that with all our efforts combined we can’t make it out of this otherworldly place alive," Ji You said, smiling slightly as she continued, "Therefore, on the journey ahead, we all must proceed with heads held high, having confidence in ourselves without underestimating anyone or anything, maintaining reverence, but never undervaluing ourselves. After all, it’s just another world. We humans have emerged from Ancient Earth, treading on thorns, cloaked in glory, moving forward ceaselessly, never stopping, never yielding."

When speaking, Ji You exuded confidence and composure, a calmness and poise that comes from seeing through everything.

"Senior He Bi, do you want to ask if I regret stopping you?" Ji You looked at He Bi, her dark eyes like deep pools.

He Bi was momentarily stunned.

Ji You said, "Regret."

He Bi’s fingertips trembled.

Ji You stated, "I regret not figuring out sooner the purpose of your visit to the Space Rift. Otherwise, we could have discussed it together, which is always better than you bearing everything alone. Could it be that eight ordinary people together can’t surpass one Zhuge Liang?"

He Bi: "..."

Ji You raised her voice, "Jiaojiao, Xiaoqing, Ah Guang, Spicy Eye, Fu Feng, Little Yuanyuan, do you regret it?"

Chu Jiaojiao, Shen Changqing... everyone said in unison: "No regret!"

Chu Jiaojiao shouted, "Senior He Bi, we are comrades, comrades who share life and death together, of course we advance and retreat together."

Shen Changqing said, "I have no option to abandon teammates here."

In the co-pilot seat, Sheng Qingyan lifted his eyelids lazily, "Oh senior, just remember that you can’t do things we didn’t agree on, if you do it, I could mess it up for you," Sheng Qingyan deliberately raised his voice, "I really have that power, you know." 𝑓𝑟ℯℴ𝓂

Yue Qiyuan fixed his eyes straight ahead, "Senior, although you’re senior, you’re also an important teammate to us."

Liu Fufeng leaned against the cabin wall, clutching several paper pieces, earnestly saying, "Senior He Bi, next time before you act, tell me, I’ll divine for you. Only when I foresee good fortune can we act. That’s imperative."

Up front, hearing this, He Bi was moved, momentarily speechless, but hearing Liu Fufeng’s remark, he was at a loss for words.

Liu Fufeng seemed completely unaware of his bluntness, he continued matter-of-factly, "Otherwise, I can make a voodoo doll for the enemy and curse it."

He Bi: "..."

Liu Fufeng: "Senior, my voodoo dolls are very effective."

"Enough." Ji You interrupted him, chastising, "Stop with the superstitious nonsense. Just keep a diligent watch."

Liu Fufeng parted his lips slightly, then closed them.

Having stayed silent, Yue Qiguang couldn’t hold back any longer, jumping in with eagerness, "Senior He Bi, had you mentioned running to another plane earlier, Dad would have come along. How could he possibly miss out on such a thing?"

Plane...

Another world...

Possibly another dimension altogether, concepts already deemed highly probable by scientists, but having only heard of them, Yue Qiguang became immensely curious...

If he had known in advance that the Space Rift might connect countless planes, he would’ve been enthusiastic long ago.

Ji You twitched her lips, "Yue Qiguang, shut up. Your single-cell brain needs to control your body, or you might get beaten."

Hearing this, Yue Qiguang was immediately upset, "4444, is it that Dad’s iron fists can’t move you anymore, or are you becoming arrogant?"

Ji You didn’t respond, but Chu Jiaojiao waved her fists at Yue Qiguang, loudly, "Yue Qiguang, it’s been too long since Sister Jiaojiao gave you a beating, you’re daring to raise your voice in front of Ji You?"

Yue Qiguang: "..."

Seeing another verbal battle about to erupt, He Bi felt an instant headache, rubbing his eyebrows as he said, "Alright, seven ordinary people, let’s discuss the situations we might encounter next, prepare in advance."

Ji You raised her hand, snapped her fingers, and everyone quieted down.

Ji You smiled, "Senior, assuming we’re currently within a passageway wall, then how long until we can leave? There are three possibilities: one, it takes years. Two, mid-term, around half a year to a year. Three, very short, at most half a month. I lean towards the third possibility! Since toss the Medal Soul Device, it takes only half an hour, and those crayfish came out! Such a short time surely means the passage to this plane is extremely brief."

He Bi nodded at this, "I also lean towards the third possibility."

Ji You immediately said, "Therefore, we only need to consider how to handle the third situation, as it’s most likely and pressing. We can set aside the other two for now."

"Then if we are about to enter that plane, what do you think we might face?" Ji You posed a question.

Chu Jiaojiao said, "Crayfish?"

Yue Qiyuan said, "A bunch of crayfish?"

Liu Fufeng said, "Endless crayfish?"

Yue Qiguang had a different opinion, outright saying, "Couldn’t it be spicy crayfish?"

"Cough cough..." Yue Qiyuan instantly said, "Brother, say less, everyone is hungry." He also muttered, "Clearly scallion-stir fried crayfish taste better, their natural flavor..."

With all this crayfish talk, He Bi almost fell into the crayfish trap, swallowing discreetly, then said seriously, "A plane doesn’t only contain one species, perhaps there’s large crayfish... cough cough... maybe other intelligent life too. As for these crayfish, we have determined before, they are unintelligent."

"Moreover—" He Bi said solemnly, "I am closest to the vortex, but after observing for a long time, attempts to probe it with spiritual power have failed. The crayfish near spaceship X-N3848 have been cleared out, those not cleared have retreated back to the plane. Since this vortex appeared, no creature from that plane has emerged... so we are uncertain if the creatures below the vortex are still crayfish or something else."

Ji You pondered, touching her chin, "This is a problem, currently we have no answer, but I have another question, whether the cause of this vortex event was due to the Green Glaze Master’s Soul Device or our previous presence, including the killing of many crayfish, attracting that plane’s attention?"
