Approaching the Zuan planetary belt means that the Leonin has crossed the middle section of the morning glow route.
The irregular dust storm and gravitational turbulence are mixed together, creating a variable drag force, causing the spacecraft to bump up and down in the seemingly calm airspace, like a small boat in the dark night, driving in the stormy waves.
Along the way, Lu Chen would receive danger avoidance reminders almost every few hours.
Danger sources come from irregular black holes, vortex storms, and high-energy particle explosions...
In the cockpit of the Leonin.
Casual table.
In the exquisite translucent white jade teacup, a cup of black tea mixed with wine ripples.
Lu Chen drank tea and watched the news. He felt that the chaotic news that hit him was bigger than the storm the spacecraft encountered.
The first to bear the brunt was Empire News.
In addition to the national news where Langya Company is located, Lu Chen also appeared in "Empire Entertainment Weekly" for the third time.
For the first time, the news from Zhenling Continent mentioned the Original Star Adventure Group at the end, but did not mention Lu Chen’s name.
The second time, the news about Fog Sea Star also said that he was the result of the star creation by the Adventurers Association.
At the beginning, Entertainment Weekly condemned Lu Chen for robbing the cargo ship of a legitimate company of the Empire. He had completely reduced himself to an interstellar pirate and was unworthy of the Imperial Hero Medal, calling for his ban.
As a result, just a few hours after this news came out, Lu Chen appeared on the "Federal Free Stars".
Federal News said: Lu Chen and his two teammates liberated three hundred humanoid slaves from the powerful Empire slave ship and sent them to the Scarecrow Planet. They received the Federal Freedom Medal and were well-deserved freedom fighters!
Because the evidence is conclusive and there are many circumstantial evidences about the slave trade of Langya Company.
Entertainment Weekly immediately deleted the previous news and changed its story to say that the Entertainment Weekly news investigation team had entered Langya Company.
It was discovered that the slave trade was only carried out by the Fate World, and its captain Silva was an outsourced temporary worker who had just signed a contract with the company...
Later, he affirmed Lu Chen’s status as an empire hero, saying that Entertainment Weekly was the first media in the galaxy to pay attention to this humble adventure group. He also affirmed the captain Lu Chen’s talent, which can be said to be a discerning star. Tan Bole.
Then the topic changed and Lu Chen said that as a human being, Lu Chen had eclectic sexual preferences, especially girls with animal ears in various forms.
And I like the beast-eared girl with obvious atavistic features!
The news even questioned whether the 300 humanoid slaves handed over to the Scarecrow Planet were all humanoids on board the World Crossing.
Will he hide his beautiful girl secretly...
Lu Chen thought to himself that he hid it secretly, but it was not Mei Jiao Niang, but two of Dragon King's patients.
At the study table on the other side, Ai Li, who was watching the news simultaneously with Lu Chen, was trembling with fear and trying to retract her wolf ears.
It can shrink a little, but it shakes when it shrinks, so it can't shrink much.
Gloria came up to Lu Chen and curiously looked at the news on the screen, and said meaningfully:
"It's rare for Entertainment Weekly to be objective. It's not easy."
Lu Chen looked up.
Gloria, who got a thousand spiritual stones with just one strike of the sword, put on sparkling starry eye shadow, ate assassin ice cream in her hand, put on high heels and a beautiful expensive skirt, and the red tulle on her chest was looming, which was very tempting.
I didn’t know, I thought she was a rich girl from somewhere.
The plump, snow-white pussy under the red skirt was placed on the corner of the table next to Lu Chen's hand, intentionally or unintentionally.
He seemed to be in a good mood, as if he wanted to give Lu Chen benefits because of this blood profit.
Lu Chen picked up the tea cup without even looking at her legs.
Following Entertainment Weekly and Gloria's slander, he snorted coldly:
"Where did the human woman come from? Get away!"
Gloria's face turned cold, and she immediately pulled down her skirt and covered her thighs.
However, she still has options.
He took out a black cat-ear headband and put it on his head.
Meow~
Ai Li turned her head and looked at Gloria.
"so cute……"
Lu Chen almost lost control.
He forced himself to take a sip of tea calmly before speaking calmly.
"This is the correct posture to please the master."
With an angry look on her face, Gloria raised her hand and slapped Lu Chen on the head...but the action was very gentle, like a cat's paw caressing her, like a spring breeze.
"How's it going? Have you thought about it?"
Lu Chen didn't know why.
"What have you thought about?"
"Think of a bright road."
"What is the broad road?"
Gloria blurted out, and her eloquence soared.
"Of course it's the interstellar pirate route. What missions do you do every day? What kind of treasures do you pick up? If you have a moral obsession, we can also pretend to be pigs and eat tigers, fish for law enforcement, let those interstellar pirates provoke us first, and we will fight back. It’s so fat, I promise, in less than a month, you will be able to earn a voyage ship worth 100,000 spiritual stones, and in half a year you will be able to earn 100,000 new generations, don’t you want to become the man of the Star Thief King!”
It depends on who the Star Thief King is... Lu Chen thought to himself.
Then, he took a sip of tea, crossed his legs, and said very leisurely:
"Actually, I don't like the days of fighting and killing. Wouldn't it be wonderful to travel around, pick up treasures, collect medals, and evaluate the customs of various planets... Interstellar adventures should be focused on, there is no need to be too complicated!"
"cut."
Gloria couldn't understand these mysterious contents at all.
Lu Chen recalled carefully:
"I have been out at sea for so long. What I remember most clearly and what makes me recall the most is not the fighting and killing, but the travels on various planets, fishing, swinging, beach volleyball... be it adventure or life, the last It’s best not to have any tricks, otherwise you will be cut off by others one day.”
"Don't listen, don't listen, the bastard is chanting sutras."
Gloria stuffed the assassin ice cream into Lu Chen's mouth, turned around and went to play the game.
On the other side, Ai Li reminded Lu Chen:
"Captain, it seems we have a bounty on our head."
Lu Chen ate ice cream and continued to read the news.
He does have a bounty on his head!
But it's not the reward from the Adventurers Association, but the reward from the Wolf Fang Company.
In an email sent to Lu Chen, Langya Company gave Lu Chen a three-day deadline to return the World Crossing, but Lu Chen replied: Get lost.
Subsequently, the company issued a statement, claiming that the humanoid passengers on the Fushimi had all voluntarily signed contracts with the Langya Company. They would be recommended to adventure groups in need of talents, and the Langya Company only earned a meager commission.
"This statement is even more shameless than Entertainment Weekly."
After being ordered to return the World Crossing but being refused, the company decided to offer a reward of 20,000 spirit stones to capture Lu Chen and the Original Star Adventure Group alive. If they only captured the World Crossing spacecraft, they could also get 10,000 spirit stones!
Lu Chen slapped his thigh suddenly.
"Damn it, I lost money!"
If I had known earlier, I should have found a middleman and offered a commission of one thousand spiritual stones. The World Transcendental Hao could have sold nine thousand spiritual stones instead of the seven thousand spiritual stones sold now...
Why didn't this reward come out earlier?
Ellie, who was always very excited about adventurer points, was a little worried about the imperial bounty.
"Captain, aren't you worried about being offered a reward? Twenty thousand spirit stones is not a small number. There must be people who are interested in it."
Lu Chen calmly took a sip of tea.
"I'm so excited, and then let me live an adventurous life of fighting and killing, earning blood every day?"
Ellie felt that the captain was too confident.
But for some reason, I felt that the captain had a clear understanding of the enemy's strength every time, and would fight and run away without any hesitation.
Is it some kind of derivation ability?
She was curious.
More secret observations are needed...
After eating the ice cream, Lu Chen logged into the Adventurers Association's news website again.
The Adventurers Association also just released news.
Although it is not the headline of the Zhaoxia Route section, it is still news with big letters in red.
"Hijacking the Interstellar Train and liberating three hundred humanoid slaves, the miracle of the original star dome is still happening!" 》
Through investigations from all parties, the Association News roughly restored Lu Chen's adventure, highly praised the liberating spirit of the Original Star Adventure Group, and condemned the slave trade of the Langya Company.
It is speculated that the true strength of the Original Star Adventure Group has exceeded level 40 and is a very mature adventure group.
In this battle, Lu Chen's adventurer points increased by 10,000 points to 30,000 points!
The position on the annual rising star list has also been raised from ninety-six to seventy-three!
Comments section behind the news.
Many Imperial engineers spent several days and finally solved the problem of displaying dynamic terminals.
But even so, the Fifty Cent Party members were like frightened birds. They stopped for a while and did not dare to make trouble again.
Lu Chen just stood up and had no intention of hacking into the association's news server again.
This time, there were obviously a lot more messages from humanoid adventurers in the news comment area.
But this time, Lu Chen finally got more than just a few symbolic compliments, but also got his own fans: fans.
Mostly humanoid female fans!
Reading the fans' messages, Lu Chen felt like a spring breeze.
"A rare human hero."
"Wow, what a handsome human boy. It's hard to find a human that you like."
"Perhaps they are not human anymore. It is said that the descendants of dragon people do not have obvious dragon characteristics. I cannot rule out that they are dragon people!"
"This is the only liberator who I don't think wants to make money. There is light in his eyes, a human-like light."
"Empire Entertainment Weekly said that he likes the beast-eared girl, but what if I don't have animal ears? I only have insect shells..."
"Ugh, then you are better than me, I only have tentacles."
Lu Chen thought to himself that the dragon man's statement was not entirely wrong. Who is not a descendant of the dragon?
It's obvious that humanoid women rarely like human men.
Being handsome is useless. Even being a liberator doesn't add many points. You have to have some special temperament.
"Sisters, what nickname do you think should be given to this lovely human captain?"
Lu Chen was stunned, this is incredible!
The squirrel girl in the comments section also posted a poll.
The person who ranked first in the final vote was actually...
Lobo?
Isn't this the nickname of Wang Luffy from "One Piece"?
Ai Li was at the study table opposite, secretly synchronizing the pages Lu Chen was browsing, and couldn't help laughing when she saw Lu Bao's nickname.
But she couldn't say anything, so she secretly sent this nickname to Gloria.
Gloria was still playing the game when a poll about Lu Chen’s nickname popped up in front of her eyes. The first place was:
Lobo?
Gloria stood up and took off her glasses, sat down next to Lu Chen, looked left and right, and pinched Lu Chen's face.
"When did you, a pervert like you, become a treasure?"
Lu Chen smiled and took a sip of tea.
"You are so jealous. Do you want to see what nicknames your fans have given you?"
Gloria's expression changed and she turned back to play games without saying a word.
Lu Chen had no intention of letting her go.
I deliberately dug out the comment section of the previous Wu Haixing News, and there were nicknames voted for Gloria by fans.
The first one is called:
Fat cat.
It was an unnamed adventurer who came up with the nickname "Fat Cat".
This person posted a photo of an AI painting of lycanthropic Gloria.
Lazy posture, chubby sexy body, cute brainless expression, and a pair of supple cat ears.
Then the number of likes for Fat Cat’s nickname skyrocketed…
Lu Chen smiled knowingly, hiding his merit and fame.
Holding the tea cup, he walked to Gloria and stroked her ears repeatedly.
"Fat cat, where are your cat ears?"
Gloria's face turned red when she was touched, her eyes twitched slightly, and she had no intention of playing games.
Suddenly he turned his head and bit Lu Chen's hand, causing him to bleed.
An angry and blushing expression, coupled with a purring voice that sounded like an angry cat, combined with her unparalleled face of a royal sister.
Lu Chen was bleeding.
Xingqi also moved.
"Isn't the fat cat cute? Why are you so shy!"
Gloria ignored him and continued playing the game.
Lu Chen smiled:
"Ai Li is still called a dog, isn't she happy?"
That’s right, Ai Li’s most voted nickname is Gou Wa.
And it was really started by fans...
The wolf is aggressive, but the dog is much cuter. Ellie is a lolita, so it’s okay to call her a baby.
Ellie didn't care.
Sirius's name is indeed too eye-catching and can easily cause trouble, while Gouwa is more like a human-like nickname.
"Actually, in Sirius, my childhood nickname was similar to Gouwa, which sounds friendly."
Lu Chen nodded slightly and sat back at the leisure table. When he saw an event post, he suddenly said:
"Ellie, are your fans a little too crazy?"
"Have it?"
"some!"
Lu Chen glanced at the comments section of the Adventurers Association.
The ratio of the numbers of Ai Li, Gloria and his fans is about one hundred to ten to one.
The difference is very obvious.
Ellie's fan group even organizes events!
They opened a separate thread on the Adventurer Forum.
Prepare to form a group to attack Ardenfermat, the seventh planet in the Rogel star system!
However, these people all belong to their own adventure groups and have adventure missions, so they cannot turn around and return to the Rogel star system.
So I decided to launch a bounty mission.
Currently, the mission bounty is being raised on the forum.
Reply to a post and support a spiritual stone by default!
Lu Chen took a special look.
As of now, the main poster has actually raised more than 38,000 spiritual stones...
"Good guy, I haven't earned thirty-eight thousand spiritual stones since I went to sea for so long. It makes me want to go back now and kill Ardenferma!"
Ai Li said very thoughtfully:
"There's no rush. Didn't the captain say that we will go back to take revenge when we are strong enough? We also need a spaceship that is fast enough. After our revenge, we can go back and continue our adventure."
However, the minimum bounty for starting a mission is 100,000!
After all, Ardenferma is no rookie. He is a solid level 50 practitioner, a retired major general from a second-level alliance country of the empire, and owns a retired imperial fleet.
At least, with Lu Chen's current strength, he couldn't kill Ardenferma.
In addition, there are different opinions on the Internet about Aden Fema’s identity, which seems to have a lot of background...
But soon, things exceeded everyone's expectations.
An Aili fan uploaded a piece of news that just came out on the forum——
The ninth ship of the Guernica Beast Control Corps, the Scorpion Tail, overturned the Ardenfermat regime on Rogel's seventh planet, massacred Ardenfermat, and liberated three thousand slaves!
Not only Lu Chen, Ai Li's fan base was also dumbfounded.
The bounty event hasn't started yet, but Ardenferma has been rushed?
