The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers
Chapter 141 Qi Dahuyou

Chapter 141: 141 Qi Dahuyou

Ji You ignored the other Spiritual Silks and looked at Old Five, seriously delegating a task: "In a moment, I need to exercise my right arm, it must be able to raise completely 100 times! Do you have confidence in doing that?"

Old Five wished it could nod its head like a bobblehead:

It’s just an arm, no big deal.

After a good meal and in a particularly cheerful mood, Old Five wasn’t slacking at all; it worked hard with all its might.

At that moment, Ji You felt anew and discovered that with the full help of Old Five, using the right arm of the Small Mecha felt just like using her own arm, effortlessly.

At the same time, Ji You’s face darkened:

Old Five is considered one of the weaker among the six Spiritual Silks, but when it puts effort, it caused such a big change in driving the Mecha—this means—

If the other Silks all stop slacking and work hard, wouldn’t it be really easy for me to pilot the entire Small Mecha?

Ji You’s eyes flicked, having come up with an idea, but decided to bide her time for now.

In no time—

Seeing that the Master had not given further instructions or any other indications, Old First, Second, Third... including Fourth, all the Silks became anxious.

They all crowded around Ji You, jumping up and down, desperately trying to show off their worth.

Ji You pretended not to notice, focusing seriously on Old Five, who was working hard, occasionally showing a hint of satisfaction in her eyes.

Old First, Second, Third... all five became anxious!

They can’t let Old Five take all the credit!

What to do?

Old First took the lead, ran to Old Five’s side, and helped lift the arm.

Seeing Old First getting ahead, although Fourth felt annoyed, it didn’t want to fall behind and quickly joined to help.

Second, Third, and Sixth also snapped back to reality and hurriedly followed suit.

Ji You watched them, a sneaky smile crossed her mind, but her face remained very serious, she frowned and said: "Wait! What are you doing? I didn’t ask you to come over!"

Old First vigorously shook its head and wagged its tail.

Second followed Old First.

Third closely followed Second.

Fourth stood out on its own; it suddenly shrank a bit, wrapping its entire self around Ji You’s palm, eagerly rubbing against it.

Heh~

Quite the charmer.

Seeing this scene, Ji You was shocked: so the size of the Silks can change! It can shrink now? Does that mean it can also grow?

We’ll confirm this another day.

Seeing Fourth’s action, Sixth wanted to do the same, but suddenly Fourth flicked its tail, sending Sixth off to one side.

Sixth got angry and flew over to fight with Fourth!

As the entire Spiritual World was about to descend into chaos, Ji You’s brow twitched, she shouted: "Stop it, all of you! What are you doing?"

All the Silks shook their heads and bodies vigorously, strongly expressing their will:

[We want to work!]

[We want to work too!]

[We strongly request to work!]

Ji You fell silent for a few seconds, then asked: "Are you sure?"

Led by Old First, the Silks nodded in unison: [Sure, certainly, and definitely!]

Ji You queried again: "Even if it’s unpaid work? No benefits at all?"

The Silks vigorously nodded.

Ji You showed a troubled expression and said: "I don’t have much work, just having Old Five alone can handle it; I don’t need you."

The Silks shook their heads vigorously and then nodded vigorously.

[No problem, Master can assign us anything~]

Ji You haughtily said: "I don’t want disobedient, chaotic Silks working for me. Even if it’s voluntary, I have my demands if you’re working for me!"

Led by Old First, they nodded vigorously, although Fourth felt something was odd, seeing all the Silks eagerly agreeing, afraid of being left behind, didn’t think much and also quickly nodded.

Ji You was immediately satisfied: "Follow my command, no fooling around, can you do that?"

All Silks: [Yes!]

Ji You: "Alright then! Since this is your strong wish, I can’t refuse you."

"Boss, Second, you two are responsible for the legs, Third, Fourth, you two handle the arms, Old Five, you’re on the head, and Sixth, you take care of the torso..."

"Any objections to this arrangement?"

All six strands of Spiritual Silk shook their heads simultaneously and started working swiftly.

Ji You watched, shook her head, and sighed deeply: "I said no work, yet you insist on working."

"Ah~"

"It’s tough being a good person!"

If anyone else were here, they would surely curse Ji Bapi.

Ji You focused and followed the training instructions. With the full cooperation of the six strands of Spiritual Silk, her familiarity and control of the Small Mecha gradually improved, from initial clumsiness and struggling steps to eventually being able to simply make the Small Mecha walk a couple of steps.

Three steps.

Four steps.

...

Once the breakthrough was made, it felt like enlightenment, and Ji You piloted the Mecha from walking to running...

All this happened in less than half an hour.

It was—

Surprisingly easy.

Ji You almost couldn’t believe her own progress.

She turned her head to look at several classmates nearby, noticing they were still practicing such basic steps as lifting a finger.

Ji You stretched her neck, looking around, and saw that many people were progressing slowly, some even kept falling and couldn’t get up.

The slightly better ones were already starting to train their arms.

Among the top few, Yue Qiguang finally emerged from the wall, probably scared of the alloy walls; he was maneuvering the Mecha to crawl and kept away from any walls.

Louise Carter could also crawl a few steps now.

Shen Changqing, perhaps due to the advantage of having an S-grade in spiritual power, could already walk a step, but he tripped after just two steps, falling in an undignified dog-pile position.

And Chu Jiaojiao?

As expected of the number one in sheer strength, Chu Jiaojiao was able to run and jump in the Mecha, even proudly performing a split in front of all the students!

But—

Although the Mecha successfully did the splits, it got stuck and could not get back up.

Ji You: "..."

Faced with all this, a sudden delusion of ’I am the genius above all geniuses’ swept over Ji You, and her confidence inflated immensely.

At that moment, Teacher Mu Jianling approached her.

Ji You quickly acted cute and sought praise: "Teacher! Look at me!"

As she spoke, she not only walked a few steps but also jumped several times, and like Chu Jiaojiao, proudly did a split!

And moreover, she quickly retracted her legs after the splits!

Mu Jianling stared at her, remaining silent for a few seconds.

Due to Teacher Mu’s complex expression, it was hard to tell whether she was happy, relieved, or dissatisfied...

Anyway, Ji You couldn’t figure it out.

Mu Jianling kept a stern face, remaining silent, but internally, she was extremely shocked!

How could she manage such fluent control in just this short amount of time?

What was going on?

Mu Jianling was pleased and thought about looking for the reason, but as she approached the range of Ji You’s spiritual power, she suddenly felt a strong repulsion from her Spiritual Silk!

Very strong!

Very unwelcoming!

Almost ready to battle!

Mu Jianling was somewhat puzzled, raised her head to size up Ji You, and noticed her face showed no abnormality, clearly clueless.

So, it seemed that all this was actually the autonomous action of the Spiritual Silk?

Could that be possible?
