I Have a Date with a Thousand-year-old Female Corpse-Chapter 1288 What Are These Women Up To?

As for the other six people, you deliberately left out their names because you knew there was no need to remember them. Once on Fire Star, they would be the first ones to leave their corpses behind.

"My name is Mu Yun. I’m not sure where I come from, but I’m glad to meet all of you. I hope we can help each other in the future."

"Kid, you look strong. You have the aura of a powerful person," Locke said bluntly.

"Are you from an Aristocratic family?" Tang Xiao asked. "No, no, that’s not right. I don’t sense any Inner Strength flowing within you. That’s pure condensed power! God, how did you do it?"

Tang Xiao acted like a seasoned doctor as he examined you thoroughly from head to toe. Finally, he concluded, "If my grandfather saw you, he’d go crazy. You’re nothing short of a martial arts prodigy."

"Nice to meet you, genius," Bruce said with a smile.

"Me too."

You responded with a smile as well. Then the voice of the middle-aged man sounded once more: "The passage to Fire Star has been activated. Warriors, embark on your journey!"

"Oh!!"

Deafening shouts erupted from the people. Soon, everyone strode ambitiously toward the so-called passage. The passage was wide and divided into dozens of routes.

"Remember, your first task is to reach a place called Mecca. Use any means necessary to get there!"

Before the middle-aged man’s voice had entirely faded, screams of companions began to fill many ears.

"What’s going on?"

"Up ahead, up ahead there’s a Tyrannosaurus!"

"Run quickly, retreat!"

"Impossible, the passage doors are shut!"

"This is murder!"

"Mom, I want to go home!"

Countless cries rang through the skies, but soon the cries were replaced by screams. Occasionally, amidst the screams, angry shouts from men could be heard: "Locke, open the path to the left! Tang Xiao and Bruce, follow me, I’ll cover the rear!"

Upon arriving at Fire Star, before you even had a clear view of its soil, your vision was locked onto by an enormous form—a Tyrannosaurus.

Your first instinct was to reach for your left hip, where you would normally hang Wind Slasher, but your hand found emptiness. This was the real world, not a game.

As you regained your senses, one of your teammates had already been gnawed into pieces by the Tyrannosaurus. Tyrannosauruses were beings of immense strength and extreme ferocity. Initially, they were merely bred for research purposes, but no one had anticipated that large numbers of them would survive here.

To live, you made your first decision—run.

You all fled quickly, thanks to Locke’s formidable strength, which broke open a section of shrubs and created a path. Many others were lucky enough to follow behind you.

"Hurry, hurry up!"

Once everyone had sprinted past a certain area, the Tyrannosaurus ceased its pursuit, instead turning back to feast on the bodies of the fallen.

Realizing you were safe, many couldn’t help but cry out, some even indignantly roaring, "I’m going to file a complaint! This is a crime; this was murder!"

While those people were still venting their anger and frustration, the four of you had already emerged from the shrubbery, arriving at a red desert. At this moment, you finally saw Fire Star’s soil—it was red, and the plants here differed vastly from those on Earth.

Gazing back at that blood-soaked place, Tang Xiao sighed, "This time, the Academy is determined to weed out the weak. Humanity is growing by tens of millions daily. The death of ten or twenty thousand people won’t make much difference, especially when those who die are civilians; their parents won’t be able to do anything about it. Every Aristocrat here is protected by a Laser Circle that emits radiation repellent to Tyrannosauruses. Naturally, the creatures won’t attack them."

"What exactly is the Academy’s goal?" you asked.

"I don’t know either, but I think maybe they want to cultivate stronger people," Tang Xiao said helplessly, shaking his head.

"No, they’re searching for individuals—people capable of commanding a new fleet," Bruce said with a trace of excitement on his face. "My father mentioned it to me before. To resist external invasions, the Galaxy Fleet spent a huge sum of money to establish a new troop. While the troop itself is complete, it’s lacking talent and suitable leaders. That’s why they requested personnel from the Five Great Colleges. If we pass the Academy’s exam, we’ll be able to join the Galaxy Fleet and interact directly with those heroes, receiving their guidance and teachings."

"Heroes? Hmph." You shook your head dismissively. Turning to the three behind you, you said, "I’m not interested in that so-called heroic fleet. I don’t have time to waste here. I’m heading off; you continue with your trials."

Within the knowledge you had, some secrets about the Galaxy Fleet were buried deep—a mere understanding of these secrets had made joining the fleet unappealing to you.

Watching as you pulled out a foldable black game glasses from your pocket, the other three immediately asked, "You play Ao Shi too?"

"Yeah." You nodded.

"What’s your name in the game?" Tang Xiao asked.

"Mu Yun." As the words left your mouth, your figure transformed into a beam of white light and disappeared.

Upon entering the game, the system’s particularly soft voice greeted you, "You have been forcibly removed from the Beauty Mercenary Group. Your reputation has dropped by ten points."

"What the—!?"

Before you could gather your wits, you found yourself surrounded by a group of Giant Lizards.

Today might have been the most unlucky day of your life—first inexplicably kicked out of a team, then besieged by Giant Lizards averaging Level 35.

The mobility and attack power of Giant Lizards were both exceptional. While you believed you could take on a few, the sheer number before you was overwhelming.

Not daring to linger, you leaped into a tree, darting nimbly across the branches like a monkey.

"What kind of nonsense are those women up to now?"

As you wove through dense foliage, you stumbled upon a valley where a Centaur village lay.

From your elevated position, you spotted an Adventure Team hidden not far away, their goal same as yours—to rescue Roland City’s Little Princess, Nansini.

A gentle breeze rustled the leaves, creating a "rustle" sound. When did a sly smile creep across your face?

You picked up a few stones and dashed downward at wind-like speed.

Your speed was already fast, but with the momentum, it doubled. Interestingly, your target wasn’t the Centaurs but the adventurers concealed beneath the leaves.

"Whoosh!" A stone flew from your hand, and shortly after, the woods echoed with someone’s shout: "Ow!"
