106: Rest affects sanity! Subspace evil god?

There was no other way.

Lin Fei and Lin Mengzi had a necessary reason for entering this mission.

They had to complete this trial to enter the map where the Great World was located and find the whereabouts of their third sister.

Therefore, no matter what kind of troubles or trivial matters arose, they had no choice but to do them.

After eating, the two went to look for work.

In front of the public information screen, Lin Fei quickly found a suitable temporary job.

"Sister, I'm going to be a porter."

"Moving cargo in the Starship's cargo area, three hundred star coins a day."

This job didn't require any special skills; it was purely manual labor. The pay was calculated per item, so the more you worked, the more you earned.

Lin Fei possessed a superhuman Physique, making him perfectly suited for this job.

"I am a construction team all by myself!" Lin Fei thought with a helpless smile.

"I'm going to help in the kitchen; they provide a meal. Let's meet at the rest area tonight."

"Okay."

The two separated again, each going to earn money.

Upon arriving at the cargo area, Lin Fei immediately activated his ruthless cargo-moving mode.

Those heavy cargo containers were as light as toys in his hands.

His loading and unloading speed was astonishing; one person was worth seven or eight ordinary workers.

The workload that was expected to take most of the day was easily finished by him in less than an hour.

Because the pay was calculated by volume, Lin Fei prepared to clock off after finishing his work.

The Group Leader in charge of this area was a middle-aged man with small eyes, protruding cheekbones, and a goatee.

Seeing Lin Fei's efficiency, his eyes lit up.

He rubbed his hands together, approached Lin Fei, and smiled broadly: "Tsk tsk, little brother, what great strength you have!

Are you a Strength-type superpower user?"

"I suppose so." Lin Fei nodded, simultaneously learning a bit more about the information of this world.

Superpower users existed in this world!

"Truly, you have a remarkable bone structure, a one-in-ten-thousand Genius of cargo moving!"

Lin Fei glanced at him, waiting for what he would say next.

Seeing this, the Group Leader continued: "It's like this, little brother, I have a big job here with high pay.

Over at the Starship's Factory No. 3, a batch of special steel needs to be urgently transported.

But all the transport robots are currently occupied.

That stuff is incredibly heavy; ordinary people can't move it at all.

If you're willing to take this job, I'll give you ten times the salary!

How about it? Will you do it?

You can get paid as soon as you finish!"

"Ten times the salary? Three thousand star coins?"

Lin Fei calculated in his mind; the salary for moving those ordinary goods earlier was 300 star coins.

Ten times would be 3,000 star coins, which was a decent income for him.

It was enough for him and his sister to live comfortably on the Starship for several days.

"Yes, yes, yes, exactly three thousand!" The Group Leader's eyes gleamed.

"Fine." Lin Fei nodded, "But you have to sign a contract first."

"No problem! Straightforward!" Seeing Lin Fei agree, the Group Leader's smile widened. He quickly pulled a paper contract from his bosom and signed the agreement with Lin Fei.

The contract clearly stated the work content, compensation, and the terms for same-day settlement in black and white.

After carefully confirming everything was correct, Lin Fei followed the Group Leader to Factory No. 3.

That batch of special steel was indeed incredibly heavy; each piece weighed several tons, piled up like a mountain.

But for Lin Fei, it was still a piece of cake.

He once again displayed his superhuman strength, easily loading the steel bars onto the transport vehicle as if they were building blocks.

In less than two hours, all the steel had been transported.

"Phew, done." Lin Fei brushed the dust off his hands.

Afterwards, he went to the Group Leader's office.

"Group Leader, I've finished everything. Can I get paid now?"

"So fast? It's only been two hours."

"You can have someone inspect it, or go check the site yourself."

"Good, good, good, not bad, truly a Genius."

The smile on the Group Leader's Face suddenly faded.

He slowly took 500 star coins out of his pocket and placed them on the table.

"Take it, this is your pay."

Lin Fei's expression instantly darkened: "Five hundred star coins? Are you fucking kidding me?"

"You should be giving me 3,300 star coins!"

The contract was written in black and white; it clearly stated 3,000 star coins. This guy was actually trying to welch on the debt!

This is outrageous!

"Young man, don't be greedy. I gave you a job opportunity; you should be grateful."

The smile on the Group Leader's Face completely vanished, replaced by the look of a scoundrel.

"We signed a contract."

"Contract?" The Group Leader took out the paper contract they had just signed and tore it to shreds right in front of Lin Fei.

"This thing is just waste paper.

Giving you 500 star coins is already giving you enough Face!

Don't even think about it; where else could you earn so many star coins?

If you keep working for me, you can earn 500 star coins every day.

But if you insist on asking me for money, that's fine too; you can go to court and file a complaint against me."

"However, you should know that the law has never served people like you.

Besides, I have some influence in this area. You don't want to be kicked off the Starship, do you?" The Group Leader leaned back, reclining comfortably in his chair.

He was a small contractor.

After the job at Factory No. 3 was settled, he would get at least 10,000 star coins from the factory manager.

"You're determined not to pay and want to welch on the debt, right?" Lin Fei wasn't even upset.

He had originally intended to work honestly and earn money with his strength, but there were always bastards who wanted to persecute him.

Then he couldn't be blamed for his subsequent retaliation.

"Heh! So what if I welch on your debt?

Why don't you ask around? In this area, who dares to go against me?"

He arrogantly tapped on the desk, acting overbearing.

"The captain of the Starship security team in this sector is my cousin!

If you dare say another word, believe it or not, I'll have people arrest you right now.

I'll make you regret it!"

Lin Fei also smiled.

This ugly, petty Face of a villain who had gained power was truly disgusting to look at.

Did they think he was a sick cat just because the tiger didn't show its might?

"Very well, so that's how you want to play, huh?"

"Remember what you said today."

After speaking, he picked up the 500 star coins on the table.

He turned and left without saying another word of nonsense.

The Group Leader watched Lin Fei's retreating figure and spat triumphantly: "What the hell kind of thing is that? Daring to act tough with me?"

...

Time passed in a hurry.

The lights inside the Starship adjusted accordingly, simulating the softness after dusk.

The public information screen scrolled with the latest job recruitment information, entertainment program previews, and some trivial interstellar news.

After Lin Fei and Lin Mengzi had a relatively delicious dinner at the civilian restaurant on the bottom floor,

they headed to the public rest area located on the bottom floor of the ship, which had hundreds of floor mats.

As soon as they pushed open the thick alloy door, an indescribable mixed odor hit them.

The smell of sweat, foot odor, and the sour stench of fermented cheap, inferior food.

Various foul odors mixed together.

Added to the forced mixture of air freshener.

When the smell rushed over, Lin Mengzi even rolled her eyes slightly.

"It's quite fragrant!" Lin Mengzi covered her nose.

"Sister, how about we go stay in a standard room instead?" Lin Fei said.

He didn't want to save this money!

"We're already here, and we've already spent 40 star coins, so let's just make do for the night."

In the entire hall, hundreds of floor mats were arranged densely.

The sound of snoring was as surging as the tide, and at the same time, there were little bastards eating at night, holding mobile phones and watching videos with headphones, but occasionally laughing out loud.

Lin Fei's brows were tightly locked; in a place like this, let alone resting well, just staying here felt like a torture.

He could have earned 3,300 star coins today, enough for him and his sister to stay in a standard room for ten days and eat fresh, hot meals every meal.

Instead of being like this now, only able to squeeze into this place where even breathing was difficult with a group of strangers.

"That son of a bitch." A fierce look flashed in Lin Fei's eyes.

"Alright Feifei, don't be upset." Lin Mengzi pulled his sleeve and comforted him softly, "We can find a way to earn money; it's not worth getting upset and hurting your health.

That person will definitely get his retribution."

Lin Fei took a deep breath.

Sister was right; now was not the time to be upset with such a petty person. The urgent priority was to ensure their survival in this world first.

The two found two relatively clean floor mats in the corner and were just preparing to endure the night when,

Suddenly!

"Ahhh—!

Get away! You bugs! Don't try to crawl into my brain!"

A shrill, terrified scream erupted from the other end of the hall!

Immediately after, a middle-aged man who had originally been curled up on a floor mat suddenly sprang up from the ground.

His eyes were bloodshot, and his Face was full of extreme fear and madness.

What was even more heart-wrenching was that layers of thick, substantial black mist were continuously dissipating from his body, wrapping around his limbs and torso, as if invisible demons were eroding his Soul.

And he had also become incredibly strong.

"He's crazy!"

"It's the contamination of the Subspace Evil God! His SAN value has bottomed out!"

"Stay away from him!"

"Call the security team! Call the security team, ahhh!"

The surrounding crowd erupted in a commotion and exclamation, all scrambling to avoid him.

The man wrapped in black mist let out unintelligible roars, waving his hands wildly, as if driving away some invisible hallucinations.

He lunged at the person closest to him, opening his mouth to bite.

"Zzzzt—!"

Just at this moment, several dazzling blue electric arcs struck over.

Precisely forming an electric net, instantly covering the crazed man!

The man convulsed violently as if electrocuted, and the black mist on his body also emitted bursts of "hissing" sounds as if being burned, becoming a bit thinner.

Several Starship security team members wearing black uniforms and holding electric batons appeared on the scene.

Their movements were swift and skillful.

"Target has been Elementary eroded by Subspace energy, mental state extremely unstable, immediately conduct Grade A isolation!"

The leading security team captain calmly issued instructions through the communicator on his helmet.

Two security team members stepped forward and tied the heavily panting man tightly with special restraint straps.

Then, like dragging livestock, they dragged him away from the public rest area.
