Boarding the Ship
"Let's figure out how to get back!" said an elderly Brain Bug in the underground of an abandoned factory on Fairy Star.
Just as Old Wang guessed, they had lost their ability to Spatial Teleportation due to their severe injuries.
Given their current condition, even sacrificing several lives might not be enough to open the Spatial Passage to Leviathan King, who was responsible for receiving them.
Everyone thought that General Zhang was ambushed by the Legendary Youji, but in fact he was ambushed by the five people present.
Although Youji struck first, he controlled him with his Mental Power, and together they delivered a blow to the opponent.
Although the opponent didn't know why they were stunned for a moment after seeing Youji, which caused them to be controlled and take the hit from them.
But he was, after all, High Legendary, and immediately broke free of his restraints, turning around and punching them.
With just one punch, even with the combined defense of one Legendary Tier 3, two Legendary Tier 2s, and one Super Legendary Tier 1, they were all severely injured.
If they hadn't used their trump card to escape, they might have perished there.
Later, when they were escaping, I heard that the man was also seriously injured—that's nonsense.
Their attacks wouldn't cause that person much trouble at all!
"I already have a plan," the special Mutant Insect said, no longer silent when the topic of escape came up.
"What plan?"
"We'll do it like this..."
After the Mutant Insect revealed its entire plan, the expressions of the others who were looking at it changed.
This guy is no good!

Three days later
"Big brother, should we continue searching here? Three days should be enough for them to reach the Outer Domain!" Lin Qimeng asked in despair.
They've been searching Fairy Star for three days now, and they've done absolutely nothing.
With fairies coming and going all the time, how could they possibly go unnoticed?
"No, I have a feeling they're on this Planet!" Old Wang insisted.
"Why are you so sure?" Lin Qimeng asked.
"Feel!"
Everyone: "... You won!"
Although they complained that it was annoying, everyone still diligently helped Old Wang search.
When Lin Qimeng passed by a newspaper office, she glanced at the newspaper briefly and walked past, but quickly turned back.
Lin Qimeng: "Give me a newspaper!"
"Here you go!"
"Come and see!" After buying the newspaper, Lin Qimeng found Old Wang and the others and handed them the newspaper.
After everyone took it, they saw what was written on it.
"To thank our new and old customers and to show our appreciation to the frontline soldiers, Molten Gold Shop will be offering a half-price tour of the frontier in five days."
All proceeds from this event will be donated to the Frontier Legion...
"This is it!" Old Wang exclaimed upon seeing it.
Since Youji and the others cannot use spatial abilities, they have no choice but to use other methods to travel to the Outer Domain.
If they really are on this Planet, they certainly wouldn't let this opportunity pass them by.
Furthermore, there's another point: special things don't appear in games for no reason. He'd never heard of tour groups before, so there must be something to it.
This is a newspaper from four days ago, so the Molten Gold Shop's travel ship is supposed to depart tomorrow.
"I'll go buy the tickets, and then we'll stay on this boat tomorrow," Old Wang said.
"Good!"
The next day
Old Wang and his group arrived at the tour group's spaceship early, but they underestimated the size of the Molten Gold Shop.
This was actually a civilian ship of the Galaxy-class, with five boarding gates, and tens of thousands of people from Fairy City had signed up for this event.
They could only each guard one boarding gate, while the rest kept watch around the ship to prevent themselves from missing the few Insectoid.
"Sir, your hat fell off!" Just as everyone was observing idly, Old Ma helped an old man pick up his hat and said to him.
This is a family of five: an elderly man with his son, daughter-in-law, and two grandchildren.
One of the grandchildren looked to be only a teenager, while the other was still an infant.
They seemed like a normal family, but for some reason, they seemed to really like perfume, and their body odor was extremely pungent.
Upon hearing this, the old man came up to Old Ma, snatched his hat, and then walked onto the boat without looking back.
This person didn't even say thank you, nor did they offer a smile; they were incredibly rude.
Moreover, not only was he impolite, but his entire family ignored Old Ma and boarded the boat without looking back.
After giving them the middle finger, Old Ma continued to observe them.
"Is something wrong?" Old Wang asked when he saw Old Ma looking very unhappy.
"Nothing unusual, except we encountered a very rude NPC," Old Ma.
"Impolite?" Old Wang asked, puzzled.
"Yeah, the whole family had the same deadpan expression, and they were all spraying that pungent perfume..."
As Old Ma was talking, he suddenly thought of something and immediately looked towards the Ji family, but they had already disappeared.
"Damn it! We were careless. They got on the ship. They must have disguised themselves as a family of five: an old man wearing a black hat, a middle-aged couple, and two children."
The older child was around 10 years old, and the younger one was still an infant. The whole family, including the children, were wearing very strong-smelling perfume.
Old Ma quickly explained the situation of the family they had just visited to everyone; he was certain that the family was definitely not normal.
What parents would wear such strong perfume while having an infant in their arms?
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately began boarding the ship to search, but there were simply too many people on board.
Most people went back to their rooms to rest as soon as they boarded the ship, so they had no way to screen everyone.
Moreover, this ship is Molten Gold Shop; if they search haphazardly on board, they could easily be thrown off.
The ship was about to depart, but they still had no clue whatsoever.
"Didn't they say they were wearing very strong perfume? Why don't we follow the scent?" Xiao Hai said.
"Do you think you're a police dog? Following the scent!" Old Ma.
"Oh~"
Everyone: "..."
How did someone with that level of intelligence get into the same team? Oh, he's the Thousand King! Never mind then!
Even after the ship set sail, the group still hadn't found anything, and they had received numerous complaints about their search.
The main reason is that they impersonated ship's stewards and entered other people's rooms; they have now been taken into custody by the people from the Molten Gold Shop.
They were ordered not to leave their rooms, thus completely losing their chance to search.
"We need to think of a way. It will only take five hours to reach our destination by boat, and we don't have much time left!" Lin Qimeng said.
"We'll do it like this..." Old Wang gathered everyone together and explained his plan.
"Hijack (loud)... Ah... hijack a ship (whispering)? Isn't that too risky? Although the stats of Epic equipment are indeed very strong, it's not worth it, is it?"
Xiao Hai almost shouted out, but Gao Lin Qimeng reacted quickly and stepped on his foot, otherwise the guards outside would have noticed.
"Can't you guys calm down? If you weren't my brother-in-law, I might have kicked you out of the First Group after that shout!" Old Wang.
"You're no longer First Group! You've been carried up to the referee's table, chair and all!" -Sword of Miracles.
"Too!"
Haha~
"Alright, let's get going! One hour later, once the spaceship is far away from Fairy Star, proceed according to plan!" Old Wang said.
"What plan?" everyone asked.
"Adapt to the situation!" Old Wang.
"Damn"*N
They can hijack a spaceship Future like that; their execution capabilities are undoubtedly top-notch.
When the time came, Old Wang kicked open the door and used magic to knock out the two guards.
Then they went to an open area, summoned their Mecha, and loudly announced to the people on the ship, "Robbery!"
Lacking experience, they didn't know what to do next after announcing the robbery.
They simply waited in the hall, figuring those people would eventually come looking for them, so they weren't in a hurry.
The security guards from the Molten Gold Shop, responsible for the ship's safety, were taken aback for a moment, then looked at the "petty thieves" with a half-smile.
"Don't worry, everyone. You're all fine in your rooms right now. Just watch our live stream as we deal with these petty thieves."
Soon the announcer's voice came over the loudspeaker, and everyone on the ship settled down to watch the show.
No one on the ship took these obviously unprofessional robbers seriously, because this was the ship of the Molten Gold Shop.
The power of the Molten Gold Shop is deeply ingrained in the minds of Normal in this world; robbing the Molten Gold Shop is basically an act of suicide.
