The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers-Chapter 1008: Special Items

Ji You didn’t find anything valuable, and it was clear that neither did the others. Yue Qiguang and Yue Qiyuan were a bit unsure, and asked Shen Changqing beside them: "Shen Changqing, can you take another look to see if there’s anything we missed here?"

Shen Changqing’s expression was very calm as he carefully examined everything, shook his head, and said, "There are a few rather precious materials, each worth about 500,000 credit points, but unfortunately, they’ve already broken down and aren’t worth anything now."

Ji You, Yue Qiguang, Yue Qiyuan, and the others all cursed in unison: "Poor dead!"

Seeing these kids so disdainful, Xiao Liu couldn’t help but laugh and said: "These guys are all desperadoes, living for the moment. You ask them to save money, and they won’t. When they get their hands on treasures, they usually exchange them for cash to live extravagantly. It’s good enough if they have any left at all."

Despite this, everyone still spat: "Tsk! Being interstellar pirates and still this poor, truly poor dead!"

When selecting the Eagle Map Space Button, after a while of picking and not finding anything, they decided to move on to the next. Shen Changqing looked at Ji You’s constipated-looking face and couldn’t help but ask: "Ji You, what are you looking for?"

Hmm?

Upon hearing Shen Changqing’s words, everyone else turned to look at Ji You, who candidly said: "I’m looking for something. I felt earlier that something here has an inexplicable attraction to my spiritual power, but now, it seems to be gone."

Shen Changqing was momentarily startled but quickly his eyes lit up, and he said: "Ji You, are you saying your spiritual power can sense something useful to you?"

Ji You nodded: "Yes."

Sheng Qingyan, Yue Qiyuan, and Yue Qiguang blinked, looking at the two of them.

Shen Changqing explained: "Indeed, such situations can happen. In this world, there are countless humans... each person’s spiritual power is unique, and occasionally in nature, some special objects have unique effects on someone’s spiritual power. However, such special items are extremely rare; I’ve only heard of them."

Ji You’s eyes brightened upon hearing this: "Really? Then, what effect do these special objects have on spiritual power?"

Could it be that what attracted them was such a special item that could affect their spiritual power?

Ji You thought it must be.

Because—

Even now, the Six Spiritual Threads in her Spiritual World were still clamoring:

Boss: [Master! Don’t give up, catch it!]

Second: [Master! Go for it, I believe in you!]

Third: [Master! Never give up, never surrender, I’m always your support.]

Fourth: [Master! Charge~ It must be here! It must be here!] After saying this, Fourth suddenly wagged its tail and continued a bit cutely: [If you’re tired, Master, you can rest a bit. We’ll continue looking later. I believe in you, I always have, you’re the best master in the whole world.]

Old Five: [Master! I believe in you too.]

Old Six: [Master, when can we eat? I’m so hungry?]

The various compliments from the Spiritual Threads were gladly accepted by Ji You, but she gave none of them any promises, just like a heartbreaker who neither refuses nor commits, calling it going with the flow.

When Ji You asked the Six Spiritual Threads what effect this thing had on her and them, all they could say was that this thing was especially delicious, incredibly delicious, extremely delicious...

Ji You gave up chatting with the food-crazy threads and instead focused intently on Shen Changqing.

Shen Changqing said: "These special items take many forms, some are living creatures, some are plants, and some are ores or soil, etc. Their role is somewhat akin to a highly specialized Soul Device, but it only works with spiritual power aligned with its magnetic field, which means it’s worthless in the hands of those who don’t match. Moreover, the probability of these items being compatible with any specific spiritual thread is minuscule, not even one in a billion, so many have never heard of it."

With Shen Changqing’s explanation, everyone was intrigued, even Xiao Liu and the two warriors beside him showed some interest.

Then, Shen Changqing said: "If one is exceedingly fortunate to encounter a special item aligning with their spiritual power’s magnetic field, then spiritual power could advance rapidly. It’s said that someone’s Spiritual Silk Cleaning Rate jumped from 1% to 66%, and another’s Spiritual Level surged from D-level to S-level. There’s even claims that someone’s rate reached 100%, but that’s just hearsay, unsure if it’s true."

Ji You and others: "!!!"

Yue Qiguang exclaimed in shock: "Could there really be someone with a 100% cleaning rate?"

Yue Qiyuan shook his head: "That must be fake."

How difficult it is to increase the Spiritual Silk Cleaning Rate, everyone present knew it well. A leap to 100% seemed incredible, leaving everyone momentarily breathless, then all began to doubt its authenticity.

It’s known that until now, no one throughout the entire Alliance, even all of human society, has been heard to have a 100% cleaning rate.

Shen Changqing said: "I also doubt the authenticity; I came across it accidentally in a dusty book in my grandfather’s study, a self-printed publication, not from a publisher, so it’s hard to verify. However, there’s something you might not know, my grandfather was once fortunate enough to obtain a special item, which seemed to be a dried-up little grass. After using it, his spiritual power jumped from A-level to SS-level, and it also laid the foundation for his later advancement to SSS-level."

Ji You and others: "!!!"

Ji You clutched her heart, admiringly saying: "As expected of our grandfather!"

Shen Changqing: "..."

Shen Changqing blushed slightly and said, "Grandfather’s spiritual power increased so quickly thanks to an external force, but he is a man of great determination; he worked harder than anyone else. His strength comes from a combination of talent and effort."

Ji You quickly said: "Of course, who is our grandfather? He’s one of the strongest warriors in the Alliance!" At this, Ji You cleared her throat and added: "Just one of them, cough, cough... because the strongest in the Alliance is me! The future me!"

Everyone: "..."

After a moment of speechlessness, Yue Qiyuan squatted down and said: "Let’s help 4444 search together, maybe we really can find such a special item."

Yue Qiguang said: "Dad will help look too, no time for listening to foolish boasting."

Shen Changqing also crouched down, carefully sifting through the contents of the Eagle Map Space Button.

Sheng Qingyan remained somewhat silent, but after hearing about this, he immediately crouched down, starting to search piece by piece.

With her friends working so diligently, Ji You, of course, couldn’t fall behind. As per Shen Changqing’s advice, she picked up each item, carefully using her spiritual power to sense...
