Chapter 124: A Scene Of Bloodshed
“Damn! This rose looks just like the real thing!”
“So pretty! I really want to have a pair of the streamer’s hands!”
“Um, I couldn’t hold back just now and bought a set of carving tools on Star Net, wanting to carve it myself…”
“Ahem, me too, couldn’t hold back, and I spent five hundred Star Coins to buy a set…”
“Haha, looks like we had the same idea, what a coincidence, I bought a set too!!!”
“Hahahaha, you guys upstairs are so confident you can carve a jade pendant like the streamer’s? I can’t! But I bought one too!!!”
“Tsk tsk…”
……
In an instant, the very obscure Carving Shop Owner was suddenly startled by a large batch of orders.
“What’s going on? Wrong orders?” The Carving Shop Owner looked at the messages in the backend constantly urging shipment, somewhat dazed.
Whatever, even if wrong orders, ship them!
The Carving Shop Owner happily cleared out the dusty inventory in one go and shipped them, delightfully earning a sum!
Later, he found out it was because of a streamer in Tao Tao New Media that drove business to his Carving Shop.
He even specially went to Shi An’an’s backend to send a private message thanking her.
Shi An’an spent half a day carving Grandmother Ruisha’s jade pendant, the rose on it lifelike and vivid. The moment the carving was finished, the jade pendant seemed to emit light.
“Ding…”
Shi An’an received Grandmother Ruisha’s five billion final payment. It seemed Grandmother Ruisha was also watching the live stream room.
Then she received a message from Grandmother, saying others who watched the live stream also wanted jade pendants…
This…
Shi An’an was a bit troubled. Too many orders would delay her progress.
Fortunately, everyone wasn’t in a hurry and very understandingly said it could be anytime, they weren’t urgent.
This time, Shi An’an’s workload was forcibly increased again…
Looking at the Star Coins transferred by all the grandpas, Shi An’an felt both pained and happy.
Edge Star
Lin Xi received the package sent by Shi An’an and happily went to find his friend.
From afar, he saw his friend walking toward the camp.
“Hey, look, I received a package!” Lin Xi held up the package with both hands and waved it at Shi Anfeng.
“I thought I wouldn’t get it. We’re going back tomorrow. Luckily it arrived tonight, or I was wondering if I should stay behind to wait.”
Shi Anfeng looked at the package sent by his younger sister, warmth flashing in his eyes. This time, fortunately there were the green plants his younger sister sent, letting everyone recover so quickly.
“Huh? There are two jade pendants!” Lin Xi opened the package and saw the jade pendants on top, along with a note.
When Lin Xi saw the content clearly, his heart pounded. He quickly took one jade pendant like a treasure and put it around his neck.
He handed the other jade pendant to his friend, “Here, our younger sister personally carved this jade pendant, and it has a defensive function!”
Lin Xi handed the note to Shi Anyu. He touched his chest, feeling the warmth gradually emanating from the jade pendant on his chest.
At the same time, his heart also gradually warmed up.
Shi Anfeng quickly glanced at the content, looked at the exquisite jade pendant in his hand, smiled in his eyes, and in a great mood put the jade pendant around his neck and tucked it into his bosom.
“On the way back this time, we’ll stay one day on H11 Star.”
“Sure, of course!” Lin Xi was thinking the same.
“What about these?” Lin Xi looked at the ten space buttons in the package. This girl actually sent so many green plants.
Shi Anfeng felt the warmth on his chest and glanced at the space buttons in the package, “We’re leaving tomorrow, you keep these first, we’ll talk after leaving.”
“Okay, I’ll keep them first!” Lin Xi took out the ten space buttons, preparing to put them all away, then thought about it, glanced at his friend.
“Here, five for you, you keep them. I’ll keep these!” Lin Xi threw five space buttons to Shi Anfeng, then strode back to the camp.
Shi Anfeng held the five space buttons, glanced at the somewhat awkward Lin Xi, not understanding. He carefully put away the five space buttons, touched the warmth on his chest through his clothes, and followed into the camp.
This mission was finally over. They had successfully repelled the star beast tide, and could go back tomorrow.
Walking into the camp, all the soldiers’ faces were beaming with victorious smiles.
They had been here for almost half a year, and this time they could finally go back.
But the soldiers who still had to garrison Edge Star smiled faintly, their eyes full of reluctance.
Their mission was to garrison Edge Star and prevent star beasts from crossing the boundary.
Shi Anfeng walked to the green plants placed here before. He looked heartbroken at the withered green plants and gently stroked the dull, yellowed leaves.
Han Feng walked over, glanced at the withered green plants, “Major, everything is ready. We can depart early tomorrow morning.”
Shi Anfeng withdrew his hand and nodded coldly, “Notify everyone, depart on time early tomorrow morning.”
“Yes, Major!”
Shi Anfeng looked at these green plants, “Before leaving, pack up all these green plants, find a place, bury them in the soil…”
“Okay, I’ll get someone to pack them right now!”
After Shi Anfeng finished instructing, he left.
Han Feng looked at Shi Anfeng’s back, his expression complex.
Night on Edge Star was bitterly cold, with howling winds outside the camp, the sound somewhat desolate.
Since they had successfully repelled the star beasts, everyone in the camp slept soundly, waiting for departure early tomorrow morning.
The on-duty personnel felt unusually sleepy tonight for some reason.
Han Feng checked the time and walked out from the shadows.
“Who!” The on-duty personnel saw someone coming and immediately became alert.
“It’s me.” Han Feng slowly approached.
“Deputy Han!”
“Mm.”
Han Feng walked up to them with a smile, “You’ve worked hard. Last night on duty, stay alert. After boarding the starship early tomorrow, rest well.”
“Yes, Deputy Han!”
“Mm, continue your patrol.”
“Yes!” The few turned and continued patrolling.
As soon as they turned, Han Feng immediately raised his hand, aimed at them, and quickly fired.
In the quiet space, only “thud, thud” sounds were heard as the on-duty soldiers fell silently to the ground.
Han Feng checked, confirmed they were dead, and strode toward the perimeter.
……
“Ah! Help!!”
“Ah, star beasts! Star beast attack, quick!”
“Wake up! Quick, star beasts are here!!!”
“Help…”
In an instant, massive star beasts continuously entered the camp, slaughtering the defenseless humans at will.
Shi Anfeng, who was sleeping, sensed something wrong and immediately got up and walked outside.
“What’s going on?” Lin Xi ran out of his room in panic.
They heard the star beasts’ roars and the soldiers’ cries for help. The two exchanged a glance and quickly ran out.
What they saw was a scene of bloodshed. Just a few hours ago, everyone was chatting and laughing together, loudly saying they were going home soon.
Now it had become a bloody mess, horrific to behold.
