Chapter 12 Interstellar Escape-1 (New Book, Please Collect, Recommend, and Invest!)
"Not busy! Not busy at all!"
Tang Xuan broke free from Lin Wan's hand, randomly collected the things on the table, stuffed them into his schoolbag, carried them and ran out.
The girl in red smiled apologetically at Lin Wan, and then disappeared from her sight along with Tang Xuan.
a long while
Lin Wan snorted: "Sure enough, we failed again."
In fact, Lin Wan didn't understand why she was so persistent with Tang Xuan. With her proud temperament, she should have given up after being rejected once. But there seemed to be some kind of magic power about Tang Xuan that attracted her. It was an inexplicable bond, as if she had known him a long time ago.
The girl in red introduced herself: "Hello, my name is Wang Anya, and I am a junior researcher at the institute. I brought a paper version of the employment agreement."
They are now in the cafe below the teaching building.
The girl in red's voice was relatively soft, and there was a young couple sitting not far away who were making love to each other. Tang Xuan had to listen to her attentively to avoid missing the key points.
"Then, as long as I sign this agreement." Tang Xuan paused, "Can I take the spaceship directly to the capital planet to work?"
The girl in red nodded.
Tang Xuan had no objection. He took the employment agreement from the girl in red and took out a pen to sign page by page. The girl in red silently watched Tang Xuan sign, looking like she was peacefully passing through the years, not disturbed by the environment at all.
Tang Xuan handed the signed agreement to the girl in red.
The girl in red checked it carefully and put the agreement into her bag after making sure it was OK. She whispered: "Welcome to join the Ancient God Research Institute."
Tang Xuan smiled: "Can I go to the Capital Star tomorrow?"
"Yes, you can book your own ticket." The girl in red hesitated, "You can also come with me. I have a private spaceship that is being recharged at the space dock."
Tang Xuan was stunned for a moment: "Private spaceship?"
The girl in red nodded slightly: "Well, charging will be completed the day after tomorrow. You can go with me."
"Then let's meet here at ten o'clock the day after tomorrow." Tang Xuan smiled slightly, "The ticket to Capital Star is not cheap, and I'm still a student."
The girl in red agreed: "Okay."
Tang Xuan stood up and said, "I still have some things to deal with. I'll see you the day after tomorrow."
The girl in red waved gently: "Goodbye."
Tang Xuan returned to the dormitory in a happy mood.
Buzz——
The game board on the table vibrated.
Tang Xuan's eyelids twitched, he stepped forward to open the game board, and sure enough he saw the 100% charging sign.
Small gold text: "You have two optional games."
Optional game, don’t want to play [Jigu] anymore?
Tang Xuan was confused.
The screen gradually brightened, and two small squares floated on the background of white clouds. An animation of a shooting star is played in one of the squares, and an animation of a battleship firing is played in another small square.
Tang Xuan asked: "Where has [Jigu] gone?"
The small golden letters were silent.
Tang Xuan's eyes wandered between the two optional games for a while, and finally chose the Meteor cover game on the left because he knew nothing about battleship games.
The moment his fingertips touched the square, the clouds were pushed aside, revealing a bright and vast starry sky.

The mission interface shrank until it disappeared. In contrast, the game screen zoomed in sharply. The brilliant and vast galaxy disappeared into the frame, leaving only a lonely planet in the end.
This planet is a planet that has stopped rotating. Its surface is covered with a thick liquid-like black mist, which looks strange.
At a certain moment, a white light point stood out from the black fog. The moment it broke out of the black fog, dense beams of light suddenly appeared outside the planet, almost forming an airtight wall of light, which instantly drowned it.
The game screen dimmed, and a circular arrow representing restart appeared in the center of the screen.
mission failed!
Tang Xuan lost his precious first time before he could react.
He was silent for a moment, then pulled off a piece of hair and poked the round arrow.
Small gold letters: "Do you want to activate holographic assistance mode?"
Tang Xuan nodded.
The game board buzzed, and the light that made up the virtual screen quickly distorted and deformed, finally forming a three-dimensional picture.
The screen gradually lights up.
The white light spots broke out of the black mist, and were once again submerged by the vast sea of light without any resistance. Tang Xuan was not completely incompetent. He could clearly see the location of the button this time. The five keys on the left hand control the direction, and the three keys on the right hand release skills.
To test the effectiveness of his skills, he died three more times.
The effects of the three skills are:
[Gold Body] Invincible for three seconds; [Leap] Space jump, the jump distance is controllable within a certain range; [Reset] clears the cooldown time of the first two skills.
Among them, [Void] and [Fold] have skill CDs of eight seconds and six seconds respectively, and [Reset] is thirty seconds. The task requires him to control the white dot to reach the green safe area, which is actually to keep the white dot alive and away from the planet for a certain distance.
Tang Xuan got up and poured a glass of water, ready to fight a protracted battle.
The game starts again!
Tang Xuan looked at the holographic screen intently.
He knew that when the light spot rushed out of the black fog, countless beams of light would appear in the depths of the starry sky, and these beams would form an airtight wall to press down. This was the first life and death level.
As expected, as soon as the white light spot appeared, the beams fell all over the sky, leaving no room for the white light spot to move.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh——
Tang Xuan made up the sound of the beams in his mind.
He quickly activated the skill [Golden Body].
The brightness of the white light spot suddenly increased by a level, and even if it was submerged by dense beams, its light could be clearly seen. However, three seconds of invincibility was not enough for it to survive this round of such dense beams.
[Fold]!
The white light dot flickered for a moment, and then appeared far ahead, barely avoiding this round of attacks.
A dialog box popped up above the white light dot.
Tang Xuan took a curious look.
"Come on! Trash!"
The words were filled with arrogance.
Whoosh——
A solitary white beam of light passed through it.
The screen dimmed.
Game over!
