The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Shen Sheng: "!!!"

Shen Sheng not only found Ji You clinging to his leg, but also discovered a warm yellow halo on himself.

It’s the protective shield.

Not a personal protective shield, but one dismantled from an antique mech.

Shen Sheng, mouth agape: "!!!"

Huh?

When was this thing dismantled? The protective shield built into the mech isn’t easy to dismantle, without some skill, dismantling it could end up as a pile of scrap.

Outside the shield, waves of heat roll; inside, Shen Sheng tilts his head, trying hard to figure out this puzzler.

And then.

Ji You said: "You’re dead."

Shen Sheng: "..."

Ji You repeated: "If I didn’t save you, you’d be dead."
