The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers-Chapter 869: Running Into

After the check-up, and confirming that her body was fine, Ji You felt relieved. Then she went to Dr. Luo to get a few prescriptions for body refining medicine. As Dr. Luo handed her the medicine, he suddenly asked, "Ji You student, the holiday lasts for two months. How do you plan to arrange your vacation?"

Regarding this question, Ji You hadn’t made any specific plans yet. Ji You said, "I should go home for a bit and then find a holiday job."

In fact, there’s still more than three years until the once-in-a-century Beast Tide, but currently, many Star Beast groups have been showing unusual activity in the peripheral areas of each Star System, especially in the Sixth Star System, where the occurrences are frequent, which is quite unsettling.

At this time, it’s not suitable to travel between Star Systems, so Ji You plans to first ask Sister Lingzhi, Sister Li Ya, and Brother Qiong when they plan to return to Garbage Star No. 101.

If they go back, Ji You will follow them, and then stay at home with peace of mind to train and make Soul Devices.

...

After listening, Dr. Luo’s expression suddenly became very serious, "The holiday is quite long— using it only for a holiday job is too wasteful. You can go to the school’s task office to take on some assignments."

Ji You was taken aback, "Take on assignments?"

Dr. Luo nodded and said, "Although first-year assignments are mostly simple ones like finding lost kittens and puppies, they can still increase your points. There might even be rewards of academic points and credit points. Just speaking of points, points can buy a lot of courses, especially courses from other excellent schools. Your thinking shouldn’t be confined to your own school; you should look at the entire Alliance, even the whole world."

Ji You was suddenly enlightened: Yes indeed.

A person’s vision shouldn’t only see what’s in front of them. Besides courses from Lanyue Star, the First Military Academy, the Second Military Academy... there are plenty of courses worth learning!

Not only within the Alliance, but other countries and even social practices can offer many learning opportunities.

In combat skills, there are no shortcuts— just hard work, and more hard work.

In material processing, there are no shortcuts— just constant research, research, and more research.

...

Ji You nodded vigorously, and said loudly, "Teacher, I understand. I will go to the task office to see if there are any suitable tasks for me."

Dr. Luo smiled, "Alright."

With all checks completed, Ji You turned her head to look at Mu Jianling, who had been watching trashy dramas on the sofa since she walked in, and said, "Teacher, do you have any other instructions for me? If not, I will take my leave?"

Mu Jianling lifted her gaze from "I’m the Queen," looked at Ji You, and then waved her hand, "Get lost."

Ji You: "..."

Ji You muttered, "Can’t you speak nicely?"

Mu Jianling: "Hmm?"

Ji You put away her playful smile, and said very seriously and sincerely, "Teacher, I wish you a happy holiday."

Then, she turned to Dr. Luo and smiled, "Dr. Luo, I wish you a happy holiday."

Dr. Luo said, "Go back. If you are returning to your hometown, be sure to travel safely."

Ji You nodded vigorously.

After Ji You left, Mu Jianling put away the Light Computer and turned to Dr. Luo, asking, "Luo Wei, is her body really fine?"

"There’s been significant progress. According to her training in this period, these are normal growth values." Dr. Luo shook his head, then handed Ji You’s complete medical check-up report to Mu Jianling, and suddenly smiled, "Obviously, you’re so concerned about the students, why not say it yourself?"

Mu Jianling stretched out her hand to receive it and casually replied to Dr. Luo’s question, "Say what? Talking too much to this little brat is vexing."

Dr. Luo laughed, "I don’t feel that way. I quite like talking to this child."

Mu Jianling lowered her head, carefully reading the check-up report, just gave a slight nasal "hmm."

After reading it, Mu Jianling directly threw the report into the trash shredder.

Dr. Luo said, "After you’ve looked, I’ll just delete the electronic data as well."

Mu Jianling: "Hmm."

Dr. Luo quickly cleared all data in the testing equipment thoroughly and completely.

After cleaning up, Dr. Luo sighed, "This child’s six spiritual threads have grown faster than any current data."

Mu Jianling said coldly, "Grown faster with all the good stuff she’s eaten."

Dr. Luo chuckled, "For most people, even if they eat lots of good stuff, even using Soul Devices in daily training wouldn’t match Ji You’s growth rate."

Mu Jianling coldly said, "100% purification level. If she didn’t have an advantage, she might as well go back to the garbage planet to pick up scraps."

Dr. Luo: "..."

"Ahem...," Dr. Luo said, "To break through the next level of spiritual power, just eating natural treasures like Candy Beans isn’t enough in the short term; Soul Devices are also needed. These Soul Devices aren’t easy to manage, if——"

Dr. Luo suddenly stopped herself mid-sentence. She tilted her head slightly and sneaked a glance at Mu Jianling, finding that her expression didn’t change a bit, as if she hadn’t heard the latter part of her sentence. Dr. Luo sighed slightly in her heart and then said, "Should we think of a way to get her one?"

Upon hearing this, Mu Jianling’s face darkened, "No need, let her figure it out herself. We can help once, but not every time; we can’t keep supporting her forever, can we? Even without Soul Devices, she can break through, though it might take a bit more time. It’s not a bad thing for her."

Dr. Luo’s expression became serious, "That’s reasonable."

"By the way—" Just as she started to say something, Dr. Luo saw Mu Jianling directly turn off the Light Computer, clapped her hands, and said, "I’m off."

She left the words behind and walked out decisively.

Dr. Luo: "..."

This personality, really, not willing to say an extra word.

Meanwhile, after Ji You walked out of Dr. Luo’s medical room, the sunset glow had covered the land, and Ji You checked the time. It was the opening time of the school cafeteria. Ji You lifted her foot and headed towards the cafeteria.

The medical room is about 30 minutes away from the cafeteria. Instead of taking a Floating Car, Ji You decided to run. Before she went to NY50 for the assessment, Ji You participated relentlessly in the morning jog every day, and running had become a habit. Her physical fitness had improved significantly during this time.

Ji You ran while humming a song.

Then.

Seeing a silhouette sitting on a bench by the flower bed, Ji You suddenly paused and asked somewhat surprised, "Student Liu Fufeng?"

Liu Fufeng looked up and glanced at Ji You.
