Top-Tier Female, All Beastmen Want Her

Gu Yao went stumbling sideways, but this Biorobot body of his was shock-proof!

He had been shoved aside so unexpectedly not because of the stun baton’s electric shock, but because he had no idea Jiang Zheyu could even move. She had clearly eaten what he’d given her, yet the drug hadn’t taken effect at all. She still had the strength to push someone so forcefully.

That was why he was so completely unprepared when Jiang Zheyu shoved him.

"Hahaha, little female, electric shocks are useless against a shock-proof Biorobot. Do you want to play a game of hide-and-seek with me in the dark now?" Gu Yao laughed, his voice mischievous and wild. "You’d better hide well, then. Don’t let me catch you, or something very bad will happen."

Jiang Zheyu’s skin crawled. ’This Gu Yao is a total psycho.’

Meanwhile, Gu Han was at the controls of the Hovercar, but it wasn’t responding to him at all. No matter what he pressed, nothing worked. The Hovercar was on autopilot, and it wasn’t heading to their destination. Instead, it was flying back toward the Imperial Palace.

"What’s going on?" Unlike Gu Yao, who was fixated on his games and oblivious to their surroundings, Gu Han was paying attention. The glow from the Light Brain on his wrist illuminated the entire Hovercar, casting a ghastly pale light on his face. "The Hovercar is on autopilot. It’s not going to our destination—it’s heading back toward the Imperial Palace."

He slowly turned his head to look at Gu Yao. "Do you know what’s happening?"

Meanwhile, Jiang Zheyu had already hidden behind the sofa. Her back was pressed against the cushions, and she was completely frozen.

Gu Yao, who had been about to go after Jiang Zheyu, paused. The row of studs in his ear cartilage glinted dazzlingly under the glow from Gu Han’s Light Brain. He turned back slightly, narrowed his eyes at Gu Han, and said, "That light of yours is hurting my eyes."

He hadn’t paid any attention to what Gu Han said about the Hovercar flying back to the Imperial Palace. Even if it was, what did that have to do with him? He was annoyed, plain and simple.

Gu Yao felt that the light from Gu Han’s Light Brain was blinding and, more importantly, ruining his mood for a game. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

"Since the Hovercar is heading back to the Imperial Palace anyway, shouldn’t we have a little fun with the female before we arrive? Turn off your Light Brain." Gu Yao looked at Gu Han, his face cold, emotionless, and streaked with blood. "It’s ruining the atmosphere for my game."

"But I have no interest in playing such a boring game right now," Gu Han said icily. "Before we came to capture the female, you agreed to my game plan. I want to play a different game."

Gu Yao’s cold, mocking gaze met Gu Han’s.

The atmosphere between the two instantly grew tense.

Hiding behind the sofa, Jiang Zheyu listened to their words. She felt like she didn’t understand, yet at the same time, she felt like she did.

’The "different game" Gu Han wanted to play was probably that "Beauty and the Beast" game Gu Yao just mentioned.’

’But now Gu Yao wants to play hide-and-seek with me.’

’In any case, neither game was exactly good for me.’

Jiang Zheyu was speechless.

’Has anyone bothered to consider my feelings in all this?’

’And these two Star Thieves really were nuts. They were about to be caught by the Imperial Army, but they were still dead set on playing their games.’

Jiang Zheyu remained silent, leaning quietly behind the sofa and hoping they would just turn on each other.

"Then let’s see who’s stronger. We’ll play by the winner’s rules." The moment he said it, Gu Yao charged at Gu Han.

The two of them slammed into each other.

Gu Han’s Light Brain was instantly smashed, and violent sounds of their struggle filled the Hovercar.

The Hovercar was actually quite spacious, laid out like a small room.

So there was plenty of room for the two of them to fight.

Jiang Zheyu cowered behind the sofa, her heart pounding. She had wanted them to fight, and her wish had come true. But now she was terrified they’d bring the fight over to her. ’What if I get hurt in the crossfire?’

But amidst the fear, her mind was racing. ’Why is this Hovercar on autopilot and heading back to the Imperial Palace?’

’What exactly happened?’

A chill went down Jiang Zheyu’s spine. ’Don’t tell me the Hovercar is out of control.’

’But it’s flying very smoothly. It doesn’t feel like it’s out of control or about to crash.’

’Could the Star Network have taken control of it?’

Jiang Zheyu had no answers.

After a moment, she suddenly realized how quiet everything had become.

’Weren’t Gu Yao and Gu Han fighting? Is it over already?’

’No, that’s not right. Even if the fight was over, one of them should be saying something.’

’It wouldn’t be this silent.’

Jiang Zheyu quietly rose from behind the sofa and peered over. She saw a complete mess—the aftermath of their fight.

But now, both men were lying motionless on the floor, as if they were dead.

Jiang Zheyu: ?

’What’s going on? There aren’t any ghosts in the interstellar era, right? This is terrifying.’

But here she was, in a Hovercar on autopilot, with two Biorobots who had suddenly collapsed and no one else in sight.

Jiang Zheyu swallowed nervously. ’Could it really be a ghost?’

"System, there aren’t ghosts in this interstellar world, are there?" Having transmigrated herself, Jiang Zheyu had developed a healthy respect for the supernatural. "Did I not transmigrate into an interstellar setting, but a world that’s a mix of sci-fi and fantasy?"

System: ...

"Host, please don’t scare yourself!" the System calmly explained. "This is an interstellar world, not a fantasy world. There are no ghosts."

Hearing the System’s explanation, Jiang Zheyu breathed a sigh of relief.

’Sigh. I was just scaring myself.’

’Still, why did the Hovercar start piloting itself?’

Jiang Zheyu wasn’t sure if Gu Yao and Gu Han were completely incapacitated, and she didn’t dare get close to check. She simply skirted around them and walked to the pilot’s controls.

Her gaze fell on the flight path display.

When Jiang Zheyu saw the flight path was indeed heading back to the Imperial Palace, she breathed a sigh of relief.

’It’s not a ghost. It must be the Imperial Army using some kind of advanced technology.’

That was the only explanation Jiang Zheyu could think of.

「Elsewhere.」

The real Gu Yao and Gu Han were forcibly disconnected from their Biorobots.

For a moment, neither of them reacted.

"Did the machine break?" Gu Han frowned.

The two men unhooked the wires from their bodies and began checking the system’s connections.

"Damn it, I haven’t even played my game yet!" Gu Yao’s brow furrowed deeply.

"In that case, let’s play a different game." Gu Han let out a sinister laugh. "The Hovercar’s self-destruct function is irreversible and unstoppable."

’Let’s see what happens first: they rescue the female, or the Hovercar explodes!’

’I can’t wait to see what happens!’
