Chapter 423 Sentinel to the World: The Delicate and Useless Guide VS The Cunning and Super-Powerful
Su Jinyang and her parents both thought highly of Lin Xianyu, and since they knew that Su Jinyue liked Lin Xianyu, they did not object.
Although Su Jinyue is not very capable, she has a very strong backing from the Su family.
Lin Xianyu is a capable individual, but the Lin family can't offer him much help, while the Su family can.
Su Jinyue and Lin Xianyu complement each other perfectly in terms of family background and abilities. If they really get together, the Su family would be happy to see it happen.
Everything was going well. The Su family and the Lin family had communicated their intentions, and the Lin family had happily agreed. But now, Lin Xianyu has cheated on her and found another woman?!
Moreover, they even tricked their Su family's little princess out of the capital planet, and then stood Su Jinyue up.
Su Jinyang was furious, but now was not the time to settle scores with Lin Xianyu. Her younger sister was alone outside, and her sister was more important.
"Yueyue, don't worry, where are you now? Tell your brother first, and I'll come pick you up right away."
"Brother, I'm on a starship heading to the edge of the world right now..."
Just as Su Jinyue was about to report her exact location to Su Jinyang, the starship suddenly lurched. She could see a message on the starship saying that they were about to enter a wormhole and the communication signal might be unstable.
As she looked at the message, her eyes lit up, and suddenly an idea came to her.
Su Jinyue feigned panic and hurriedly said to Su Jinyang, "It's terrible, brother! Our starship has encountered space pirates! Come and save me!"
Then, Su Jinyue pretended that there was no signal and hung up the video call before she could finish speaking.
After hanging up the communication, Su Jinyue's expression returned to normal. Although she hadn't encountered any space pirates yet, she would after passing through the wormhole, so she wasn't exactly lying to Su Jinyang.
In fact, even if Su Jinyue didn't say anything, Su Jinyang would have received her message very soon. In his memory, the space pirates took control of the starship and sent a ransom message to the Su family.
Before long, the starship emerged from the wormhole and soon encountered space pirates guarding the outside.
Su Jinyue didn't wait in the room; she went directly to the lobby, a public area where she could learn more.
The passengers on the starship were terrified when they learned they had encountered space pirates.
This route was familiar to the starships, and there weren't many guards on board. They never expected to encounter space pirates.
The space pirates were well-prepared and quickly took control of the starship, boarding it with an air of nonchalance.
This group of space pirates is quite powerful; the dozen or so who came up were all Sentinels, with ranks such as B and C.
But when the pirate leader arrived, the passengers on the starship were filled with despair. This pirate leader was actually an A-class pirate!
As soon as the pirate leader arrived, he released his spiritual form, which was a fiery red wolf that could breathe fire!
Passengers on the starship who recognized them immediately cried out in panic, "It's the Fire Wolf Pirates! Their pirate leader's spiritual form is a fire wolf!"
The passengers, gathered together by the space pirates, immediately started shouting. Who knew that going out for a short trip would lead to encountering an A-class space pirate group!
Through conversations among the surrounding passengers, Su Jinyue learned some information about the space pirates.
The Fire Wolf Pirates are an S-class criminal gang on the Empire's wanted list, with the pirate leader being the strongest among them, holding the rank of A-class Sentinel.
The sentinels in this world are quite interesting. After a sentinel awakens their mental power at the age of 15, they are divided into corresponding levels based on their mental power.
Mental power is manifested in the form of a spiritual body, and mental power has supernatural abilities!
Take the leader of the Fire Wolf Pirates as an example. His mental strength level is A-level, and his sentinel level is also A-level. His spiritual body is a wolf, and the wolf's superpower is fire-based.
A sentinel's mental strength level is determined after activation, while the spiritual body's special abilities are determined after differentiation, but the strength of those abilities is gradually improved through later practice.
Simply put, a Sentinel's talent is predetermined, but their abilities still require effort later on.
Su Jinyue learned these common facts from her memories and found the concept of the Sentinel Guide interesting. She had only been in this world for a short time and the situation was critical.
If given time, Su Jinyue really wanted to study the mental structure of the Sentinels and Guides, to see how they actually used their mental bodies.
While Su Jinyue was still thinking, the Fire Wolf Captain in front of her began to speak.
"Friends, please be quiet!"
Ahem, I am the leader of the Fire Wolf Pirates. We are here to find someone.
Su Jinyue, the heiress of the Su family, who owns a pharmaceutical company in the imperial capital!
I've received word that she's on this starship. Don't worry, everyone, I'm only looking for her. Once I find her, we'll leave immediately!
Su Jinyue hid in a corner, secretly raising an eyebrow. This pirate leader even knows psychological tactics!
If we only talk about finding Su Jinyue and only put forward one person, the others will be safe. Even if the passengers are concerned for their own safety, they will help the space pirates find her.
But Su Jinyue knew from the memories she received that even if they found her, the space pirates would not let the passengers go.
The passengers were talking amongst themselves, but at first they were all watching and no one stepped forward.
After waiting for a while, the Fire Wolf Captain grew impatient. He released his spiritual Fire Wolf and aimed it at a passenger nearby.
"The time has come. Miss Su Jinyue, would you like to step forward yourself, or does anyone know Miss Su's whereabouts?"
If no one steps forward, my fire wolf will lose its temper and breathe fire that can burn a person to ashes!
"Don't tell me you're going to refuse a polite offer and then have to suffer the consequences? You actually want to try it?"
As the Fire Wolf leader spoke, his spiritual form, the Fire Wolf, had already set its sights on a passenger, sparks flying from its open mouth, already eager to pounce.
Su Jinyue sighed. She didn't want to test human nature. This disaster was caused by her. Although she didn't lead it, she didn't want others to lose their lives because of her.
"I'm here." Su Jinyue stood up and slowly walked through the gaps in the crowd.
Su Jinyue dared to stand up not because she was particularly kind or couldn't bear to see these people lose their lives because of her.
Instead, she knew from her memories that she would not die in the end, but would be rescued and escape from the life pod.
Before the space pirates boarded the starship, Su Jinyue sent a message to her brother Su Jinyang, saying that the space pirates had received her message and came to capture her and demand a ransom.
She also told Su Jinyang that she would act according to the situation. If she couldn't escape and was captured by the space pirates, she shouldn't be in any danger and would wait for her brother to come and rescue her.
The Fire Wolf Captain looked Su Jinyue up and down as she stepped forward. He had done his research beforehand and had a photo of Su Jinyue in his personal computer.
He pulled up the photo and compared it with Su Jinyue in front of him. He was surprised to find that it really was her!
