Quick, have another ship draw it away.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The warriors chosen to pilot the ships were mostly those whose Riot Values had already reached eighty percent or higher.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They could lose their sanity and undergo Beastification at any moment, so they had signed agreements, willing to sacrifice their lives to bring honor and compensation to their families.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a grim task, but some things just had to be done.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If this great tree were to attack the planet, the death toll would be far higher.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Losing just a few Beastman Warriors with high Riot Values was considered minimizing the casualties.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, it wasn’t a suicide mission.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they could successfully lure the great tree away, they might even have a chance to escape in their pods.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right now, everyone was nervously staring at the recorded footage being transmitted back from the ship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The great tree was slowly loosening the vines that bound the Main Star.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several ships, their sound systems blaring, tried to take turns guiding the great tree away, but the maneuver was incredibly difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The great tree had so many vines that it captured all the ships.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With no other choice, the pilots had to eject in their escape pods, taking the music with them as they fell into Deep Space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment’s hesitation, the great tree Cosmic Beast extended its vines and reeled in the escape pods as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, it placed all of them before it and stared blankly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What is it doing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Does it like listening to music? Or is it thinking about something?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone was incredibly tense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The plan to lure it away had failed. Judging by the number of its vines, sending out even a hundred more ships would be useless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter how many ships they sent, it would capture every single one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this rate, the most they could do was stall it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Chief offered some reassurance. \"For now, it seems the music is still effective. We won’t need to send any more warriors out on luring missions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, have someone figure out a way to deploy more machines equipped with sound systems. As soon as one is destroyed, we’ll immediately launch the next.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We must keep it occupied. I’ll request aid from the Empire as soon as possible and have other planets send reinforcements.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one objected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was already the best possible outcome.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they could just keep it occupied, perhaps they could hold out long enough for reinforcements to arrive and kill it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the thought of the various uses for a Cosmic Beast’s corpse, a flicker of excitement even ignited within them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing there was nothing more for her to do, Jiang Qin left. After all, she couldn’t be of any help here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「Peace returned to the cities across the Main Star.」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many people were unaware of the crisis the planet was facing. When nothing happened after the alarms faded, they simply assumed the danger had passed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only the powerful were still desperately trying to find a way off the planet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, the tree was like a blade hanging over their heads, a constant threat to their lives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If there had been a way out, everyone would have fled long ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「The next few days passed pleasantly for Jiang Qin at the Lan Family’s residence.」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was never disturbed. Lan Yidan and her partners were very considerate, always sending a message to Lan Yuyan before coming over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she was resting, they wouldn’t come by, instead just asking Lan Yuyan to bring Zhaozhao over to play with them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little girl had received so many gifts these past few days she was practically buried in them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she grew up, sorting through all these gifts would be a massive undertaking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the task of monitoring the great tree, that naturally fell to Yuan Ling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their intel was synced with the internal reports of the Federation’s top brass.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How is it today?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuan Ling shook his head. \"It’s just stopped there. Still no movement, just quietly listening to music.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have no idea what this tree is trying to do. Did it really come all this way just to listen to some music?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Maybe... the singing is what it’s after?\" Long Hao laughed as he said it, finding his own guess ridiculous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yun Xie, however, turned to Jiang Qin. \"Qinqin, what do you think?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Others might have found it preposterous, but Yun Xie was already accustomed to his partner’s unique nature, so he didn’t think the guess was outlandish at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, he thought it was quite possible. He just hadn’t seen the tree himself, so he couldn’t draw any firm conclusions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m not sure either. We know so little about Cosmic Beasts. We can’t even be sure if they’re sentient.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, most of the Beastmen who have encountered a Cosmic Beast ended up dead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To this day, no one has been able to kill one, nor has anyone managed to communicate with one up close.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What people know about them comes mostly from survivor accounts, occasionally captured footage, and the corpses of Cosmic Beasts found adrift in space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, who knows if they can even be communicated with.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Judging by their tendency to destroy everything on sight, they seem to operate on pure animal instinct.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But one thing is certain: it really does like listening to Qinqin’s songs.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Over the past few days, the Federation hadn’t just been sitting idly by.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had run experiments and discovered that the tree showed no interest in devices playing songs by other artists.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t excessively rough, though. It would usually grab the objects and play with them for a bit before accidentally destroying them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to other Cosmic Beasts that destroy everything on sight, its temperament was practically gentle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was probably why Jiang Qin and the others had been able to survive their earlier encounter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it wouldn’t accidentally destroy the devices playing Jiang Qin’s songs. It would only shatter them to bits with its violent shaking after the music had stopped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This confirmed for them that the great tree had a clear fixation on Jiang Qin’s singing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If we still can’t lure it away after two days, the Federation will launch an attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All supporting forces have already arrived.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If a fight breaks out, won’t it go berserk?\" Cang Hong asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We have to fight, even if it goes berserk. It’s growing more impatient. If we don’t act soon, it might go on a rampage anyway.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Qin forced a smile. \"All right, let’s not worry about it. Let the higher-ups handle the big problems. Making these decisions is what the officials are for, so let them have the headache.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There’s no use us thinking about it here. We’d be better off figuring out the safest way to leave if it comes to that.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re right. This is a problem for the Federation’s Chief to worry about. Nothing we think will influence their decision.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You guys go ahead and eat. I’m going to skip. I’ve had a breakthrough in my research, so I’m going back to work.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Call us if you need any help.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay. Qinqin, I’m heading back to the lab.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Qin nodded and had Shi Lichuan go with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lately, Yuan Ling had been holed up in the laboratory they’d built in the basement. He rarely left, only coming out occasionally to see them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He spent most of his time studying the spaceship they had brought back from the Mechanical Clan.\u003C\u002Fp>",1292,"2026-06-05T22:55:33.682Z",1,"novelbin.me","d432e88b1f84eff70cf468295a491edc91c7e55304b9efce8807d3ee56d071b4","a-low-rank-female-goes-viral-across-the-galaxy-chapter-495","a-low-rank-female-goes-viral-across-the-galaxy-chapter-493",500,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fa-low-rank-female-goes-viral-across-the-galaxy-cover.jpg"]
