Quick Transmigration: I'm the Villain's Assistant to the Protagonist

Shen Ying was pulled towards the spaceship by several team members. She glanced worriedly in Zhang Wei's direction, knowing that she, being weak, would only be a burden if she stayed behind. She didn't dare to think too much and followed the main group to retreat.

Just then, an insect-like beast that had somehow broken through appeared above the retreating team members, and Shen Ying was right below it.

Shrouded in shadow, Shen Ying subconsciously looked up. Above her was a gigantic insect beast, its carapace gleaming coldly. Shen Ying inwardly groaned: "No way, is today going to be my death anniversary?"

"Erase!...Erase...kill! Erase!"

A strange thing happened to Shen Ying. She suddenly heard a series of choppy, mechanical voices repeatedly saying the word "annihilate," cold and ruthless.

At that moment, the insect beast ignored the attacks from the other team members and pounced straight at Shen Ying as if she were some delicious delicacy.

"Shen Ying!!" Zhang Wei, who was in the middle of the battle, kept an eye on the retreat behind him. When he saw Shen Ying in danger, his eyes widened in horror. He lost his composure and was slashed in the chest by a huge horn. Blood gushed out instantly.

"Boss!" Jack roared, eager to support Zhang Wei. He was pounced on by a bug-like beast, but at the crucial moment, Cruise fired a shot, repelling the beast.

The insect-like beasts let out chilling roars, and they attacked the group with increasing frenzy.

Just as the insect-like beast's mandibles were about to bite Shen Ying's head, a burning sensation spread through her chest. An unknown force surged into her body, gentle yet full of energy. She suddenly noticed that the insect-like beast's movements slowed down, as if a movie had been slowed down. Looking at the ugly insect-like beast replaying in slow motion before her, Shen Ying unconsciously raised her hand and slapped it. The insect-like beast, roughly estimated to weigh several hundred kilograms, was sent flying into the sky, becoming a shooting star.

Shen Ying blinked, finally remembering that she had a life-saving game item: the Heart-Protecting Talisman. It seemed the situation just now had triggered the talisman's mysterious power! After the insect beast was swatted away, the flow of time returned to normal.

To everyone else, the insectoid beast vanished instantly. However, this wasn't the time to investigate what had happened. After escaping danger, the group began retreating back towards the spaceship.

Zhang Wei witnessed the sudden disappearance of the insect beasts hovering above Shen Ying, and naturally saw that Shen Ying was unharmed. He was only relieved that Shen Ying was alright; nothing else mattered. He composed himself, his eyes regaining their usual determination, and like a war god, he charged left and right through the horde of insect beasts, his pulse sword gleaming, each strike repelling an insect beast.

However, as the number of insects and beasts increased, the group gradually found themselves in a predicament.

"Boss, this can't go on!" Tom shouted.

"Don't panic, hold on!" Zhang Wei shouted.

At that moment, a huge insect beast pounced on Jack. Zhang Wei reacted quickly, leaping forward to push Jack away. However, he was hit on the arm by a claw, and the wound was so deep that the bone was visible.

"Boss!" Jack exclaimed.

"I'm fine, let's go!" Cold sweat beaded on Zhang Wei's forehead. He gritted his teeth and continued fighting.

Fighting and retreating, the group finally all entered the spaceship.

"Close the hatch!" Zhang Wei entered the spaceship at the last moment and gave the order in a deep voice.

The insectoid beasts that were about to rush into the spaceship were slashed down, and the hatch closed. The insectoid beasts rammed into the spaceship, causing it to shake violently.

"Start the spaceship and get out of here immediately!" Zhang Wei commanded coldly.

The spaceship slowly ascended into the air, while the insectoid beasts roared angrily below.

The group finally escaped the pursuit of the insectoid beasts and gasped for breath inside the spaceship.

Shen Ying discovered that, in the chaos, Wang Feng, the vice-captain of Alice's team, had also been brought into the spaceship.

She was speechless: Could this be the situation described in the plot where Drake kidnaps the female protagonist's teammates? The villain Drake (Zhang Wei) wasn't as treacherous and cunning as the introduction suggested. However, the game's description did align with the attacks against him on the StarNet. So, was the game's plot she was seeing reliable?

Wang Feng looked embarrassed; he hadn't expected to board the enemy's spaceship in such a way. Although he was the vice-captain of the team, his main role was overall management; he was really no good at combat. So, in the chaos just now, he had panicked and acted haphazardly.

"Make way! Make way! Bai Sanxing! Bai Sanxing! Where have you been? Come here right now, the boss is injured, get to the infirmary quickly!"

"Hey! I'm here! I'm right here!" Bai Sanxing jumped up in response from the crowd.

Upon hearing Jack's voice and learning that Zhang Wei was injured, Shen Ying immediately pushed through the crowd with concern. The team members near the hatch made way for her, everyone's face filled with worry. When Jack and Cruise appeared, supporting the blood-covered Zhang Wei, Shen Ying couldn't hold back her tears.

She quickly followed, not daring to touch Zhang Wei, and just followed the three of them to the infirmary like a little tail.

In the infirmary, Bai Sanxing was treating Zhang Wei's wounds. The wounds on his chest and arms were gruesome, and the pain made him frown slightly, cold sweat trickling down his forehead, but he still forced himself to say, "Bai Sanxing, give him some basic treatment first. Jack and Cruise, you two go check the damage to the spaceship and arrange the next steps."

Bai Sanxing was tending to his wound when he heard Zhang Wei's words and immediately became anxious: "Boss, how can I treat your wound so simply? I can see the bone, and if it were any deeper in your chest, it would have reached your heart! You must go into the repair pod for treatment!"

Shen Ying, her eyes red, was both angry and heartbroken. With a sob in her voice, she scolded Zhang Wei: "You're practically a rag doll, and you're still not getting proper treatment. What are you trying to do? You should just leave things to Jack and Cruise. Don't you trust them?"

Zhang Wei froze, only then realizing that Shen Ying had followed him. She had been silent in the corner, and he hadn't noticed her because he was surrounded by three grown men. Seeing Shen Ying's red eyes and slightly angry expression, he immediately felt uneasy, a slight pang of pain shooting through his heart.

Jack and Cruise insisted that their boss should focus on getting better first: "Boss, we'll take care of everything with you and the rest of the team. Just focus on getting better." After saying that, the two of them left.

Before entering the recovery pod, Zhang Wei suddenly reached out and hugged Shen Ying. Shen Ying was startled. Afraid of pressing on Zhang Wei's wound, she stiffened her body and asked, "Zhang Wei, what's wrong? Are you scared? It's okay. Didn't Samsung say that the wound is a bit serious, but with your constitution, you'll be fine after lying in the recovery pod for two days?"

Zhang Wei's voice was low and deep: "Shen Ying, I was scared. When you were attacked by the insect beast just now, I was really afraid that I would never see you again."

Shen Ying's heart skipped a beat. She hadn't expected him to see it! In the midst of such a dangerous battle, he had actually been distracted by worrying about her safety. Shen Ying felt a pang of guilt. If only she were stronger, but what could she do? She was just an ordinary person, and even the original owner of this body was merely a scavenger who could pilot a small spaceship. If she knew that the wound on his chest was caused by his worry for her, she would feel even worse.

Shen Ying reassured him, "Don't talk nonsense, everything's fine now. Besides, let me tell you, I have a way to protect myself, I'll definitely be alright, so you don't need to worry about me." She was telling the truth; she had a protective charm given to her by the system.

Zhang Wei tightened his grip on her arm, his voice trembling: "Promise me, no matter what danger you encounter in the future, you must protect yourself."

Shen Ying gently patted his back: "Okay, I understand. Let go of me first, and go to the repair pod!"

Zhang Wei then released his grip, his expression softening.

Bai Sanxing, who had always considered himself a mere backdrop, kept his eyes down and his mind at ease. After Zhang Wei finally lay down in the repair pod, he began operating the instrument panel next to him.

In the command center, Tom immediately began operating the instruments, his expression tense: "Jack, there are a few more damages to the hull of the spaceship, but the propulsion system can still support us to continue traveling for a while, though we can't guarantee it will last much longer."

Jack thought for a moment: "Let's find a relatively safe place to land first, and then make further plans."

The spaceship traversed the universe, constantly encountering impacts from tiny meteorites along the way, making "bang" sounds. Finally, it landed on a seemingly peaceful planet.

After disembarking from the spaceship, everyone began a comprehensive overhaul.
