Chapter 90: An Unlucky Guy

Just as nearly seven hundred thousand people were about to finish boarding the Yu-B spacecraft, Lin Lei suddenly remembered something, a matter that had been thrown to the back of his mind due to two days of chaos.

On the Leite main spaceship, that unlucky guy driving the red Mecha, if Lin Lei remembered correctly, he had been trapped inside the Mecha all this time, and it had been two days now.

Lin Lei patted his head and still decided to go to the Leite spaceship to check on this guy’s situation, hoping he was not a Layite Person.

He came to the hall of the spaceship again; nothing here had changed, with Mecha fragments all over the ground, and that red Mecha “cage” which had lost its hands and feet, as well as its energy center.

Lin Lei walked over and tried hard to pull the rear hatch of the Mecha, but found he could not move it; this part was severely twisted, and two pieces of high-strength material were completely tangled together.

Perhaps hearing the noise from outside the Mecha, a weak voice actually came from inside. Lin Lei leaned his ear closer and listened carefully, discovering that the person inside was actually cursing.

It seemed the guy inside was in decent condition and wouldn’t die for a while.

After re-equipping the Demon Crystallized Mecha, Lin Lei used brute force to forcibly tear off the rear cover of the red Mecha. As soon as the Mecha hatch opened, an indescribable foul stench wafted out.

Lin Lei looked at the situation inside and saw a guy with a head full of long silver hair embedded in the Mecha’s buffer cabin. Since it was the back view, he couldn’t see the face clearly, but this guy’s lower body looked damp, which was also the source of the stench.

Needless to say, nearly two days of fully enclosed imprisonment had caused him to relieve himself entirely in his pants.

Lin Lei turned off the Mecha’s odor sensor and didn’t care about this unlucky fellow, bursting into loud laughter directly.

The person in the red Mecha slowly crawled out. It was visible that his body was very weak; at least upon seeing Lin Lei gloating nearby, he stopped cursing and just glared fiercely at him.

This guy’s eyes did not have double pupils, but were crimson like rubies. Coupled with his pointed ears and silver hair, Lin Lei really couldn’t tell which civilization’s person he was for a moment.

His face shape was also quite unique, with a relatively high nose, but a very small mouth, giving a delicate feeling. If not for his masculine flat figure, Lin Lei would have thought he was a woman.

He didn’t look very threatening like this, so Lin Lei simply removed the Mecha armament and greeted him face to face: “Hey, the feeling of being trapped in a Mecha is nice, isn’t it? Very few people get to have an experience like yours.”

The silver-haired man glared at Lin Lei and cursed angrily but weakly: “If you’re going to kill, just kill. Do you have to be so wicked? Now you specifically come to see me make a fool of myself. You really are an extremely boring guy.”

Lin Lei rarely got to be happy, so of course he had to laugh enough. After laughing for a long time, he rubbed his stomach and asked: “Tell me what your name is? How did you become an accomplice of the Layite People?”

“My name is Mo Fei. The Layite People told me that as long as I helped them fight a battle, they would give that red Mecha to me. It’s a pity that you, this bastard, have destroyed it now.” Mo Fei stared at Lin Lei with hatred.

Lin Lei found it strange; he remembered at the beginning, this guy mentioned something about the Watcher Civilization. Could it be he didn’t know what the Watcher Civilization represented?

“How would I know what it represents! The Layite People just told me the Watcher Civilization is very powerful, and I happened to be itching for a fight. I didn’t expect to run into a nasty guy like you. Just you wait, if you don’t kill me today, I will definitely take revenge!” Mo Fei said viciously.

Lin Lei couldn’t help but laugh. Who goes around talking about revenge? Wasn’t this forcing someone to strike a fatal blow to eliminate future trouble? Judging by this guy’s tone and actions, he was just a simple and hot-headed guy, so Lin Lei didn’t intend to make things difficult for him.

“Since you have nothing to do with the Layite People, then you can go. The Layite People are my enemies; you helped them, and I just trapped you for two days, so we’re even.”

Lin Lei was curious about this guy named Mo Fei’s nerve reaction speed, so he used the strategy of wanting to catch by first letting go. Anyway, on this huge Mote Planet, other than following Lin Lei, he assumed the guy had nowhere else to go.

Sure enough, when Mo Fei heard Lin Lei say this, he thought about it and felt this reasoning seemed irrefutably correct. His anger mostly dissipated, and then he looked at Lin Lei with some embarrassment and said: “I have nowhere to go either, and I don’t even have a change of clothes. What should I do?”

This was exactly what Lin Lei wanted. Lin Lei pretended to consider it for a moment, and under Mo Fei’s slightly uneasy gaze, he reluctantly said: “Then come with me to get a change of clothes first. My spaceship happens to be leaving Mote Planet, so you might as well get on my spaceship for now.”

Mo Fei agreed without even thinking: “That works too, let’s go quickly. I’m thirsty, hungry, and feeling terrible all over.”

As he spoke, he stood up, ready to follow Lin Lei. This guy’s physical fitness was tough enough; after being trapped without moving for two days, he could still jump around so energetically.

“Wait, I still have things to do. This spaceship has already docked with the Ecological Sphere of Mote Planet. You get off the spaceship by yourself first and wait for me in the Ecological Sphere; I’ll be there soon.”

This Leite spaceship could not be kept. On this spaceship, there was evidence of the Layite People defying the Star Alliance arbitration order, as well as records of Lin Lei’s cold-blooded massacre of thousands of Layite elite warriors. Anyway, no matter which side’s people they were, they wouldn’t want these things to remain.

Lin Lei still had the captain’s authority over the spaceship, so he decided to start the spaceship’s self-destruct program, letting this big guy disappear completely into the Universe space.

“Master Control Brain, can you hear me speaking?” Lin Lei shouted loudly.

“Able to receive captain’s orders. The spaceship is currently on standby.”

“Very well, take off from Mote Planet in half an hour and fly at full speed towards the star of the Star System where Mote Planet is located. And turn off the spaceship’s Protective Force Field.” Let the star swallow this spaceship carrying the sins of humans and Layite People.

“Captain’s order received. Spaceship engines are preheating and will take off in half an hour.”

Lin Lei did not stay any longer and returned directly to the Mote Ecological Sphere. At this time, there were fewer than ten thousand humans left in the Ecological Sphere, and the landing craft of the Yu-B spaceship still needed one more trip to successfully transport everyone.

As for Mo Fei, he stood awkwardly beside the remaining humans, looking uncomfortable whether standing or sitting. Indeed, anyone with a mess in their pants would be like this. As soon as Lin Lei saw him, he couldn’t hold back the smile on his face.

“Let’s go, don’t stay here, follow me.” The landing craft hadn’t arrived yet, so Lin Lei planned to take him to the Tiansuo spaceship to clean up. The smell on Mo Fei would make anyone who smelled it feel disgusted.

As soon as Mo Fei saw Lin Lei, it was like seeing a savior. Hearing him say this, he immediately followed obediently.

As soon as he was on the Tiansuo spaceship, Mo Fei’s eyes lit up. He exclaimed in wonder: “Wow, is this your spaceship? It’s really amazing.” While exclaiming, he touched everything around him.

“Don’t dawdle, go clean yourself up quickly. I feel uncomfortable for you just smelling this. Remember to go to the fifth room; no one lives there, and there are spare clothes inside.”

“Oh, okay, thank you then. Do you have anything to eat here? I need to eat something when I come out; I’m starving.”

Lin Lei waved his hand with a bit of impatience: “Go, go, there will be no shortage of food for you.” It seemed the spaceship would have to perform a cleaning task again, and the air needed to be replaced too. This smell made it unlivable.

When Mo Fei finished cleaning and came out of the room, Lin Lei had already asked the Intelligent Robot on the spaceship to prepare the food.

Mo Fei was not polite and took the food and ate it directly. This two-day Mecha prison life had not only suffocated him but also starved him.

“Tell me where you are from. Honestly, before this, I haven’t seen many people with nerve reaction speeds as fast as yours.” In fact, there wasn’t a single one. Among the warriors Lin Lei had encountered, not a single one could truly hold their ground against his rapid attacks instead of relying on experience and instinctive reflexes.

Mo Fei suddenly stopped stuffing food into his mouth, and mist welled up in his eyes: “I don’t know why I am here either. I was just curious and crawled through a cave in the back mountain of my house. When I came out from the other side of the cave, I ended up in this weird world. Those guys with weird eyes took me to their main base. I found this place is full of Mechas and spaceships; these things are hard to imagine in my hometown.”

“So what was your original world like?” Lin Lei became interested and asked hurriedly.

“The place where I grew up is full of towering trees. I haven’t been out of the big forest until now. I heard the elders of our clan say that this forest has no boundaries and is as wide as the sky. Our houses and everything are on the trees, warm in winter and cool in summer, very comfortable. Also, there are no stars in our sky; it gets pitch black at night. I have my friends there, and my grandpa and grandma. Now I can’t go back, and I will never see them again, woo woo.” As he spoke, Mo Fei started crying. Alright, this really was a big boy who hadn’t fully grown up yet.

“Then how do you know how to pilot a Mecha?”

Mo Fei wiped away his tears, continued eating the food, swallowed a big mouthful, and then answered: “Isn’t this very simple? I really like these iron guys; they can fly in the sky and go into the ground. It’s a pity my red Mecha was dismantled by you. But your black Mecha looks much better than mine. I really envy you!”

“…” Running into such a straight-talking guy really gave Lin Lei a headache. He was silent for a long time before changing the topic: “After you finish eating, let’s spar a bit; I want to see your skills. Anyway, you have nowhere else to go, so just follow me for now. How about that?”

“Okay! You look much better than those guys with weird eyes.” Mo Fei said without lifting his head.

…

During the subsequent sparring process, Lin Lei discovered that Mo Fei’s nerve reaction speed was really very fast, almost equal to his own, and his physical strength was not low either, reaching 15.8 Standard Energy Level, a bit stronger than Yan Qingming.

After knocking Mo Fei down for the tenth time, Lin Lei hurriedly shouted stop. This guy seemed not to know fatigue; being knocked away time and time again, he actually got up immediately to continue fighting.

“Stop! Mo Fei, are all the people where you’re from as skilled as you?” Lin Lei looked at this guy who was panting heavily but had a face full of fighting desire, intuiting that his species did not belong to the Galaxy, or at least not in the known star regions of the Galaxy.

“Hah! Hah~ Of course not, they are all stronger than me. Uncle Mokan in our clan, even if a hundred of me rushed up, it would be useless. He is even more powerful than you!” Mo Fei panted heavily while loudly refuting Lin Lei’s words, just like a sulky big boy.

“Okay, okay, he is more powerful than me. I can’t deal with a hundred of you. Later I will introduce you to my friends; I hope you can get along well with them.”

“Of course, I never bully people.” In fact, back in his hometown, he was always in the position of being bullied.

“…” Lin Lei discovered that this guy named Mo Fei had a simpler mind than even Li Dasong. He believed they would become friends.
