Interstellar Journey after Rebirth

Chapter 99 Feeding the Star Beast

After thinking for a moment, Lu Shu nodded and agreed to his request.

Hu Lai knew that time was running out and he had to find out the truth as soon as possible in order to calm down this war that had been going on for so long.

Afterwards, he went to the military garrison to find Star Lord Smith-David. At this time, Smith-David looked haggard and untidy, and was completely unable to show the demeanor that a Star Lord should have.

"Smith, why did you kidnap Lu Shu's child?" Hu Lai asked directly as soon as he saw Smith.

Smith frowned when he heard this and asked, "Which unit are you from and why are you so rude?"

At this moment, Smith-David's arrogance was fully revealed.

When this person arrived, he stood in the middle of the battlefield and I didn't know what he was doing. He didn't move for a long time. When he finally came back, he came over to question me.

As the master of a planet, I have dignity, okay?

"Wasn't it you who sent out the distress signal?" Hu Lai was not angry, but just glanced at Smith.

Upon hearing the word "help", Smith's attitude immediately changed. He came forward with a flattering smile on his face, "So it's you, my Lord. Please take a seat. I wonder how many men you have brought this time, what kind of weapons you have, and how you plan to deal with these beasts?"

Hu Lai followed Smith's movement and sat in his previous seat, while Smith sat on the stool opposite.

"You haven't answered my question yet. Why did you kidnap Lu Shu's child?" Hu Lai asked his previous question again.

The lords of these low-level planets are all opportunists, which is really despicable.

“This…” A trace of embarrassment flashed across Smith’s face.

How should he say it? Should he say that he wanted the skin of the deer lily because he couldn't have children?

If he really said that, his position as Star Lord might be over.

These senior executives are really something. They just keep harping on this trivial matter. I have already returned that little beast, what else do I want?

When Hu Lai saw Smith's hesitation and his fat belly, he had already guessed the reason.

"The laws of the federal government do not allow anyone to challenge them. This is beyond doubt," Hu Lai responded calmly, without directly accusing Smith of misconduct.

From this, it is not difficult to see the tense relationship between the Federal Government and the Star Beasts. Although a full-scale conflict has not yet broken out, undercurrents are surging and difficult to reconcile.

"Your Excellency is absolutely right." Smith nodded repeatedly, fearing that if he was slower he would anger the adult who came to rescue him and make them lose the chance to be rescued, which would then be the end of them.

"Have any strangers appeared on Karen Star recently?" Hu Lai didn't care about Smith's attitude and just asked as a routine.

After a brief thought, Smith replied, "There have been no strangers around recently. It's just that some time ago we responded to the call of the Federal Government and accepted a group of immigrants from the Garbage Planet." The reason why he could answer quickly was that the arrival of this group of immigrants had left a deep impression on him.

He had been talking about the immigrants from these garbage planets recently, so he thought of them first.

"From the garbage planet?" Hu Lai covered his nose, as if he had smelled some indescribable bad odor.

"Yes, they have arrived here for more than two months, and there are probably tens of thousands of them." Smith remembered it clearly, because he had asked the personnel on the starship to help control the population, so the population was so small.

"Are there no other strangers?" Hu Lai was a little surprised and confused. How could the junk aliens have something that could attract the star beasts? And make the star beasts so excited? If I could get it, it would be a huge military achievement.

Smith replied affirmatively: "There are indeed no other strangers. All the people who have come to Starport recently are acquaintances."

Hu Lai said helplessly: "Then bring them all here, and find out the truth by asking the star beasts, and know what is going on."

"This is a simple matter." Smith immediately stood up, called a soldier, and told him to go and pass the order to bring those people from the garbage planet over.

Then Smith returned to his seat and said to Hu Lai, "Please wait a moment, sir. The untouchables will be here soon."

Hu Lai nodded and ordered: "When they arrive, send them to the star beasts one by one, and don't worry about the others. I need to rest." After saying that, he prepared to rest. After all, the long flight to here also consumed a lot of energy.

"Yes, sir." Seeing that Hu Lai was ready to rest, Smith respectfully left the room and carefully closed the door.

When his soldiers brought the people from the Garbage Star, Smith strictly followed Hu Lai's orders and threw these people to the star beasts one by one.

At first, the people on the Garbage Planet did not understand their situation. When they saw the star beasts from afar, they mistakenly thought that their chance to achieve great things had come and they became very excited.

They thought that if they could participate in the battle and make great achievements, they would be able to take root on the planet Karen and become residents of a new planet.

However, when they saw the first person being thrown into the group of star beasts, they panicked instantly, and cries and screams of fear rang out one after another.

Some tried to escape, but were immediately shot ruthlessly by the soldiers with energy guns.

Faced with this scene, the people on Garbage Planet no longer dared to act rashly and turned to Ye Hen for help, hoping that he could come up with a solution.

However, Ye Hen also felt confused and terrified.

He originally thought that Chen Mo's previous words were just alarmist, and that he could make military achievements with the star beasts. He didn't expect that now they really became victims to fill the hole left by the star beast riot.

Ye Hen knew that he could use force to suppress these idiots who came from the garbage planet with him, but he also knew that he could not fight against these armed soldiers.

Therefore, Ye Hen could only try to reduce his presence as much as possible and hide at the back of the crowd.

He watched helplessly as the soldiers threw people one by one towards the star beasts with expressionless faces. Every time someone was thrown out, there was the roar and gnawing sound of the star beasts.

This cruel scene made everyone shudder, knowing that they could become the next victim at any time.

However, in this desperate situation, they had to keep throwing people out to satisfy the star beasts' bloodthirsty desires.

The soldiers seemed numb, and some even laughed out loud. They were proud of them and felt that it was an honor for them, a group of untouchables, to be able to contribute to Karen Star.

This twisted mentality made Ye Hen feel even more frightened and desperate. He didn't know when they could escape this tragic fate.
