The whole weird world is waiting for me to go to heaven

Chapter 1111 A Glimpse of the Starry Sky

The captain is in his room.

He has a real private room.

Fifteen square meters, fully furnished, and with its own private air filtration system, it's considered the best living quarters on the lower level of the Covey.

He is enjoying this batch of high-quality "echoes".

Now that I've made some money, I can finally buy some nice things.

I couldn't resist and smoked several packs.

The room was filled with dreamlike colors.

A building even sprouted from the table, and from the church in the center, it looked like the town where he lived as a child. Countless little people walked in it, but they were all in colorful hues, and the lines were wavy and twisted.

He lowered his head, trying to look inside and see what the little figures were doing, but as soon as he got close, the scenes turned into ripples and disappeared before his eyes.

He couldn't help but sigh.

"I still can't grasp this higher-dimensional feeling..."

If he can advance, he can become a super-high-ranking individual, leave the lower levels, and go to a higher-level living area. Perhaps he can even participate in this colonial expedition...

"Just ask my brother, he knows Liekong, maybe he can squeeze in a spot for me..."

He's already made up his mind.

"Very well, since you're ready..."

The voice seemed to drift from the other side of the void.

He looked up sharply.

A beam of multicolored light seeped down from the ceiling, slowly rotating like a nebula, and dancing in the air above the room like layers of light gauze.

Through the sheer veil, it seemed as if a human face was looking down.

The sound came from the silent lips.

For the first time, he felt his own insignificance.

Like a chosen insect, it was being watched closely by that mysterious and solemn will.

"Is this... a sign of promotion?"

Am I about to become the Unknown?

He could hardly believe it; joy overwhelmed him instantly.

Light and airy.

It felt like I was floating...

Do not!
It's not just that it looks like it, it's the real thing!
Countless tiny figures beneath him struggled to lift him higher and higher, until he was about to surpass the ceiling, to cross that boundary—

Knock knock knock!
The knocking sounded like pebbles hitting the water.

The man was startled, as if he had fallen from a dream, and slammed back onto the bed.

The ethereal, dancing, colorful light vanished instantly, leaving only a deathly gray ceiling.

His face turned ashen, and he jumped out of bed cursing as he stormed to the door.

When I opened the door and saw that it was anthocyanin, I got even angrier.

"What are you here for?"

"I want to ask you... why should I pay for the parking fees?"

Hua Qingsu's voice trembled slightly. Her shoulder was wrapped in blood-stained bandages, and her face was pale, as if she could fall over with the slightest push of a finger.

The man squinted and stared at it for a long time.

He burst out laughing.

"You sold both your hands?"

"It's none of your business!" Hua Qingsu gritted her teeth. "You tell me first, why?"

"Why?" The man shrugged. "We agreed that you would take responsibility in the end, so of course it's you."

"I did not authorize..."

"You're ridiculous. Talking about authorization on the planet Banlan? Do you think this is the Imperial Council?"

"Did you even see that 'Scavenger Team Registration Form'? It states 'Shared credit during scavenging, expenses coordinated by the team leader.' You signed it, which means you agreed to it. And you're still trying to renege on your promise—"

"You're being unreasonable!"

Anthocyanin, having endured to the extreme, suddenly raised his voice, almost to the point of heartbreak.

"Give me my money back! Give it back to me!"

Because of this sound, people in the surrounding houses curiously poked their heads out to look in this direction.

The man's face instantly turned cold.

"How dare you yell at me?"

He suddenly stretched out his mechanical arm, picked up the anthocyanin, and threw it into the room.

It made a loud, clanging sound.

He glanced at the busybodies again.

"What are you looking at?"

Those gazes immediately withdrew.

He closed the door and turned to look at Anthocyanin lying on the ground.

It was probably because he bumped into his original wound; his face was contorted in pain and turned even paler, and his body was curled up like a shrimp.

"You're really asking for it."

"I just... want what I'm entitled to."

"Where did you get the money?"

He kicked out with tremendous force.

Hua Qingsu tried to dodge, but could only struggle weakly.

The metal prosthetic leg struck her heavily in the side of her abdomen. Hua Qingsu groaned, and blood gushed from the bandage, quickly spreading into a pool on the ground.

"Tell me, where did you get the money? We're already being kind by taking you along, what more money do you want?"

He cursed and kicked, raining blows upon him.

Anthocyanins quickly stopped moving.

And the man finally felt satisfied.

The frustration of being disturbed and becoming an unknown person was finally released.

"Idiot. If it weren't for the extra fee for this berthing, I wouldn't even bother with you. You really think you're something special..."

The man casually used the loose bandage on his shoulder to wipe away the chunks of flesh and blood from his leg.

He turned and walked to the table, then picked up a packet of variegated powder.

I lit it and took a drag.

The light in the sky dimly brightened again.

A face emerged from the shimmering, multicolored waves, and a pair of hands reached out towards him from afar…

The man was ecstatic—

This shows that Gaowei hasn't given up on him yet!

He even wants to go further!
The very next second that he slightly opened his arms to welcome the higher dimension—

boom!
There was a loud bang and it exploded.

The intense heat pierced his chest, his body stiffened, and he looked down to see a large, smoking hole in his chest.

On the wall, a charred mark was still glowing.

He slowly turned his head. The woman on the ground, who should have been dying, was now kneeling, her body supported by two dark gun barrels protruding from her severed shoulder, still smoking. "How dare you—"

boom!
A second flame appeared.

The man collapsed completely.

Half of the skull was blown open, and the colorful brain matter inside was scattered all over the ground, still wriggling slightly.

It was finally quiet.

Hua Qingsu stared at the corpse, her eyes filled with nothing but deathly stillness.

She forced herself to stand up, wiped the blood off her body roughly, and then quickly searched the room.

First, he found a shield generator—luckily, he was too busy enjoying himself in the room to use it, partly because he didn't see anthocyanins as a threat.

There is also a small box of top-grade "Echo".

These items are expensive, so she's basically breaking even.

He sold his arms and modified two high-energy gun barrels, and suddenly found himself in debt for tens of thousands of federal dollars.

But she had already made up her mind that even if she owed money, she would take revenge, and thankfully she did!
She smirked, savoring a moment of victory, before cutting off the modified prosthetics from the captain's body.

This is the most valuable thing.

As for his money, it's all in the account, and he can't withdraw the anthocyanins either.

Carrying large and small bags, wrapped in a bed sheet, she walked through the dust and grime of the living quarters back to the trading center and sold everything.

Debt cleared.

She even spent a little more money to change into clean clothes and take off the old clothes that were stained with blood.

This was the first time she had worn new clothes since she became an adult.

Although it's just a faded secondhand item, it's good enough.

Exhausted, she returned to her room, just about to enjoy the "echo" of the tiny fingernail she had deliberately left.

boom!
A gunshot rang out, and the curtain in front of them instantly turned to ashes.

A row of dark gun barrels were pointed at her face.

The man in the lead bore a resemblance to the captain, but their evolutionary paths were completely different—slender and covered in sharp thorns, like a gust of wind carrying murderous intent.

This is a level 10 expert.

His gaze was sharp and cold.

“It was you,” he gritted his teeth, “who killed my brother and sold his body…”

Anthocyanin was pulled up.

Seeing that the shop owner she had just traded with for modified limbs had also been arrested, she lowered her head and dared not look at her.

She looked back and saw that her once cozy little home was gone, and the things she had carefully collected were scattered all over the ground, trampled underfoot as "trash".

The tin containing the nutritional paste was overturned on the ground, and a little bit of the paste spilled out, which was trampled all over the place by these guys.

Even so, the people around, who seemed like walking corpses, rushed over as if they had smelled blood and licked the ground clean, leaving nothing behind.

Other things were also picked over and taken back to their own nests.

There was nothing left that belonged to her.

Anthocyanins were pushed and shoved by the law enforcement team, passing the huge porthole at the end of the passage.

The starry sky outside is still bright, but it is out of reach.

Why……

She recalled the agreement she had signed with the Covin Group when she couldn't find a job.

I once thought I could leave that planet filled with despair, beg for food in the void, or even become rich overnight.

She hadn't expected that this was just another kind of despair.

She's really had enough.

Things like hers are not isolated cases; they happen every day, all the time.

But nobody cared.

At that moment, she suddenly understood why other scavengers needed an "echo"—

Because of that glimmer of hope for takeoff.

They also need dreams to escape this painful reality.

It's better than living consciously.

in case……

She just wants to have a bite now, and to have new hope in her dreams.

Tears streamed down her cheeks, and Hua Qingsu slowly closed her eyes.

At this moment——

The entire Kowwen suddenly emitted a deep hum.

Then, the light went out, and darkness swallowed everything.

"Who turned off the lights!"

Screams came and went.

The next instant, everyone felt a sense of lightness.

The gravity system has also failed.

"Help!"

"Who hit me?!"

"Let me go! Let me go!"

"what is going on!"

The crowd floated, bumped, and shoved around in the cabin.

Panic spread like wildfire.

"Shut up, everyone!"

Amidst the chaos, the exasperated voice of the tenth-tier expert could be heard:

"Don't move! Get your lights out!"

However, at the lower levels, most people were immersed in the hallucination of "echoes," and quite a few muttered to themselves in a daze:

"Could it be... that I'm about to ascend to immortality?"

"Great... I can finally become an Unknowable One..."

In her panic, Hua Qingsu realized that the hand that had been holding her had somehow loosened its grip.

She drifted freely, like a feather.

Reaching out to grab the pipe, I slowly moved towards the porthole.

The starlight outside was clear and there was no light pollution; it was a depth and clarity she had never seen before.

Just as I was stunned, the next moment—

A sharp sword light is hurtling towards us!

The sword light ripped through the void, tearing a pure white trail through the darkness!

It was as if the Milky Way had opened its eyes, coldly watching this fallen ship.

At that moment, anthocyanins also opened their eyes wide.

It felt as if hope had truly arrived.
