Chapter 164: Code Name: Society and Beast

~7 min read 1,247 words

What gives the Alliance the right to do this?!

We also want to become Alliance citizens! What right do you have to drive us away?!

Should wanderers just die?! Is a wanderer's life not a life?!

We need respect! We want to freely breathe the air here!!!

The noise caused Zhang Jie to halt, eyeing the large group of 'people' with some doubt.

This group, which can barely be called human, wears ragged clothes, with varying skin tones and limbs—some are insectoid, some carbon-based, some mechanical.

In short, they are a gathering of various civilizations' species, constantly causing disturbances with their different languages.

Among them, a few who set the rhythm, speaking fluent Alliance language, continuously expound to those around how unfairly they have been treated.

At the Alliance Port, people come and go; this disturbance quickly drew many eyes, and more and more creatures gathered nearby to watch the spectacle.

Indeed, even when culture, language, and ethnicity are incomprehensible, the essence of rubbernecking is deeply ingrained in creatures' minds...

What's going on?

Zhang Jie was also curious—this is the Alliance; who dares to cause trouble here with no eyes?

These people don't look like envoys from any advanced civilization, do they?

Those people... look like cosmic wanderers.

The Alliance advisor accompanying Zhang Jie observed carefully and reported to him.

Cosmic wanderers?

Zhang Jie frowned deeply; cosmic wanderers, a notorious group, are beings who have lost their own civilization or been exiled.

They band together, constantly seeking citizenship in other civilizations; if not properly received, they will morally blackmail that civilization with accusations of disrespect and discrimination.

You should know, there is also an interstellar network in the universe; a civilization's positive or negative reputation greatly influences its development.

And once these wanderers become citizens, they will start causing trouble—looting, crime, free‑shopping, incessantly bleeding the area dry, turning the region into a foul mess, utterly disgusting.

Therefore, when facing them, all civilizations treat them as a hot potato to avoid, but the worst part is that this hot potato actively seeks people to step on them.

But... this is the Alliance! The cosmic police—how dare they!

Um, Leader... should you handle this?

Of course I should! Why wouldn't I?

This is the territory Lin Ran conquered for him! Dealing with the Alliance is the same as dealing with Lin Ran, and dealing with Lin Ran is the same as dealing with him, Zhang Jie!

In the distance, the Alliance receptionist in charge of order was sweating profusely; for this situation, he had never encountered anything like it before.

Please calm down first...

Hey! Look! Isn't the Alliance supposed to take in civilizations devastated by heavenly disasters? Why won't you accept us!

What's the matter?

Deputy! Deputy Leader!

Seeing Zhang Jie, the receptionist seemed to have spotted a savior; for this matter concerning the Alliance's reputation, such a low‑level receptionist truly didn't know what to do!

He laid everything out to Zhang Jie in detail, while the leading wanderer stared at Zhang Jie fearlessly.

You're the one in charge?

We request to become Alliance citizens! Please approve!

The wanderer quickly switched to a victim's facade, speaking to Zhang Jie, but his scheme was ultimately doomed to fail.

Give yourself one minute—take your people and get out of here.

If you don't leave, then stay and wait to die.

The wanderer staggered, seemingly unable to believe the other's words were so blunt, his face flashing between green and white.

You!

Should wanderers just die?! Is a wanderer's life not a life?!

Laughable.

Zhang Jie snorted in laughter.

If you don't die, am I supposed to die?

A towering flame surged around, instantly enclosing the group of wanderers.

Who doesn't know your nature, wanderers?

You come to the Alliance to cause trouble? First see if the civilizations the Alliance rescued are willing!

You have thirty seconds left—if you don't leave, you'll wait to die.

A wisp of fear seeped out; Zhang Jie keenly sensed the birth of this energy, and understood.

'So this is 'fear'? Interesting.'

The wanderers looked at the surrounding flames; some were fearful, some angry, because they didn't understand the Alliance language at all, they directly pulled weapons from their pockets and charged forward.

As expected, the enraged wanderers were instantly reduced to charcoal; 'fear' appeared again, like a heat reservoir, accumulating inside Zhang Jie's body.

You wait!

The rhythm‑setting leader of the wanderers shouted a few lines behind him, then, resentful, boarded their dilapidated vessel and departed.

The commotion faded, the crowd dispersed, and the receptionist thanked Zhang Jie profusely; having just started his post, he had nearly invited disaster.

Zhang Jie gave a couple of instructions, then set off toward the disaster frontline to find Lin Ran.

The next day, on the interstellar network, terms like 'wanderer' and 'Alliance Deputy Leader' attracted much attention; more civilized beings weren't blaming the Alliance but wondering where this cosmic clown got the courage to meddle in Alliance affairs.

The next day, hundreds of civilizations once rescued and guided by the Alliance jointly issued a signal: to begin cleansing the universe of wanderer organizations, executing them on sight!

At this very moment, Zhang Jie stood shoulder‑to‑shoulder with Lin Ran on the front lines against the blood disaster, displaying unparalleled battlefield dominance over the endless flesh‑and‑blood warships.

The fourth‑tier qi‑blood flame can directly burn blood, specifically countering this heavenly disaster of blood plague; with Zhang Jie's presence, the Alliance's speed in clearing the blood disaster becomes unimaginable.

And when facing the last stellar blood nest assimilated by the heavenly disaster, Zhang Jie once again performed a Solar Incarnation before the entire Alliance fleet, turning what should have been a proper battlefield into a near‑star‑chasing spectacle.

There was about a month left until the game festival of the Galaxy Build Dreams Star Interstellar Company, and during this time Zhang Jie followed Lin Ran around clearing natural disasters, while also harvesting a large amount of 'fear'.

Zhang Jie also told Lin Ran about the new ability he had obtained, and Lin Ran was extremely shocked by the improvement in Zhang Jie's strength, while also feeling happy that Zhang Jie would become stronger.

For this, Lin Ran immediately went to find a Deep Space Giant Beast to kill for Zhang Jie's entertainment, and on a primitive planet she kicked off a barbecue party using the Deep Space Giant Beast.

On Zhang Jie's side, the fear harvested from eliminating natural disasters over half a month was still not enough to transmute a single Deep Space Giant Beast, but fortunately the shortfall was small, and with two more days of effort it could be done.

Thus, Lin Ran had people remove the edible parts from the Deep Space Giant Beast's body, leaving the rest for Zhang Jie to transmute the dream disaster.

Meanwhile, the members of the Alliance fleet who had long followed Lin Ran in battle each received several ten thousand catties of Deep Space Giant Beast meat, and this group of big brothers became more motivated.

Day by day passed, and soon the day of the interstellar game festival's start approached, but it also turned out to be another day when the simulation could be activated.

After some hesitation, Zhang Jie ultimately still did not want to waste any day's time, gritted his teeth and activated the simulation.

"The fifth simulation begins, code name: Society and Livestock."

Zhang Jie:?

"Ah! No! Ah!"
