In Okhema, Derick began his vacation life. These few days were for relaxation; he just slept in every day, then went shopping with Castorice, and was teased by various aunties and older sisters along the way.
Meanwhile, within the Antimatter Legion, Derick's number two clone was preparing to attack the Herta Space Station.
This day, after Derick and Castorice had been window-shopping for half the day, he paused in his steps and said to Castorice in a slightly weary tone:
"Sister Castorice, I'm a bit sleepy. Let's go back and rest first."
"Mm, alright."
Castorice glanced around; they had indeed been walking and shopping for a long time. She nodded slightly.
The two turned and went home to rest.
Of course, Derick wasn't tired. It was because his number two clone had finally arrived at the Herta Space Station.
Lying on his small bed, Derick began to switch to his second perspective.
Gazing at the distant The Blue, and the massive space station orbiting it, Derick felt a sense of surreal displacement.
On one hand, there was Okhema, where the general technology still had a classical Greco-Roman style. On the other, it instantly switched to a sci-fi world brimming with modern style. This contrast thrilled him.
If I were to destroy all this...
The thought had just crossed his mind when he immediately snapped back. Spending this much time with the Antimatter Legion, he was almost infected by their way of thinking.
No, I have to leave the Antimatter Legion quickly. Otherwise, if I stay here too long, I'll definitely be corrupted by the Antimatter Legion's mindset.
The Antimatter Legion began to enter the Herta Space Station and started their destruction, simultaneously engaging in firefights with the Herta Space Station staff.
None of this had much to do with Derick. Whether they fought or not was none of his business; the Herta Space Station wouldn't be in any real danger anyway.
Derick's number two clone mingled among them and entered. Looking at the surroundings, he grew even more excited.
Is this the environment where I'll soon be experimented on?
Mm, wait, I need to take a good look around.
After a few rounds, Derick maneuvered clone number two to survey the surroundings.
This won't do. Your space station doesn't have enough greenery. If there isn't enough greenery, how can you guarantee the physical health of us test subjects?
Bad review, definitely giving this a bad review. When I glimpse the station staff, I must tell them this point.
Derick controlled clone number two for a few more laps. At this moment, he noticed several Voidrangers following behind clone number two, sending signals as if awaiting clone number two's command.
"Hm? Wait? I almost forgot. In the eyes of those Antimatter Legion Voidrangers, my current aura is that of an extremely powerful Voidranger. These Voidrangers are treating me as a temporary commander."
Derick thought to himself.
Faced with these Voidrangers eagerly wanting to follow clone number two, this 'big brother', Derick wouldn't be polite.
Let's go, follow me.
Derick controlled clone number two, leading these Voidrangers on a stroll.
As for destruction? Why bother with pointless destruction? Although he knew the little rich lady Asta wouldn't be short of money, if the space station could save a bit on repair costs, then it should.
The extra money, please use it for experiments on me in the future.
Derick thought to himself.
The Antimatter Legion Voidrangers behind him sent messages, asking why clone number two wasn't causing destruction.
Derick immediately replied to these Antimatter Legion Voidrangers.
Hold on, conserve your strength for me. I'll take you to destroy something more valuable.
The Voidrangers didn't understand, but seeing the strength of clone number two's energy, they figured what it said must be reasonable.
Just follow.
Leading these brainless Voidrangers was a joy. Derick took several Voidrangers on a grand tour of the Herta Space Station.
The researchers watching through the monitors were utterly dumbfounded.
"What is this thing? It's pitch black all over, you can't see any color, it's carrying a huge scythe, and it even has a few Voidrangers following it. Is it a new species of the Antimatter Legion?"
"But why aren't they causing any destruction? What are they strolling around for? There are plenty of things nearby, go on and smash them! Are you even part of the Antimatter Legion or not!"
It wasn't that he didn't care about the equipment, but this behavior was nothing like the Antimatter Legion's modus operandi.
The researcher felt that compared to his own worldview, the research equipment in the space station wasn't that important anymore.
The other staff members nearby heard him shouting and looked utterly bewildered.
What are you doing? Siding with the Antimatter Legion to smash our space station's equipment? You fellow, don't tell me you're a mole sent by the Antimatter Legion?
However, after he called other researchers over to check, the rest of the researchers were also speechless. At the same time, their understanding of common sense suffered a massive collapse.
"Go on and smash something!" the researchers shouted at the monitor.
If anyone else had seen this, they would have thought everyone in here had become undercover agents for the Antimatter Legion.
Derick, of course, knew none of this. He was still controlling clone number two, leading the Voidrangers around like a street loiterer.
Stroll around...
Anyway, the situation here will be resolved sooner or later. I just need to wait for the Herta Space Station personnel to arrive.
Derick didn't know where they had walked to.
Suddenly, he saw a figure appear ahead.
Ah!?
No way, why is there only one person here! Don't you know it's very dangerous to run around alone here?
Derick looked at the Voidrangers behind clone number two.
Right now, he couldn't restrain these Voidrangers. Upon seeing a living person, they really couldn't control their desire for destruction. The Voidrangers rushed towards that figure.
Derick saw there was no other way, sighed, and took out the scythe from his hand.
No choice. Even if there's some risk, I don't want to see anyone devoured by those Antimatter Legion Voidrangers.
Derick controlled clone number two, preparing to move forward, and then approached the figure.
After getting a clear look, he wasn't anxious anymore.
Mm, as expected. Without some skill, how would one dare to appear alone at this time?
Long purple hair, a charming face, wearing a white shirt, a cape draped behind, and black pantyhose with asymmetrical leather boots.
Well, well, it's Kafka.
Now she won't be in trouble.
Now we will be in trouble.
"To think so many Voidrangers would appear here, it's quite unexpected," Kafka said casually, then snapped her fingers.
Subsequently, these Voidrangers began to kill each other.
A few other Voidrangers turned around and attacked Derick's number two clone.
Derick quickly maneuvered clone number two to fight back against these Voidrangers.
After fighting for a while, he immediately feigned mutual destruction with a few Voidrangers, collapsing after being impaled all over.
He didn't want to expose his clone's immortal trait in front of Kafka.
"What if your novelty leads you to take me back to the Stellaron Hunters? I have no power to resist now; I'd definitely be taken back."
"But the problem is, you Stellaron Hunters are too poor, and your research capabilities are lacking. Never mind comparing with Ruan Mei, you're not even as good as Herta. So I'll just play dead and wait for you to leave. Goodbye, Miss Kafka."
Derick controlled clone number two to remain motionless.
However, this didn't prevent him from watching from his third-person perspective.
As Kafka watched these Voidrangers lie motionless, another petite figure walked over.
Silver-gray hair, adorned with unique rabbit-ear-shaped accessories and goggles. Dressed in a black and white asymmetrical patchwork inner suit, with a white fur-collared, cropped jacket worn over it. Wearing shorts and short boots, revealing tender legs.
Derick recognized her; it was precisely Silver Wolf from the Stellaron Hunters.
"Did I arrive just in time for the birth of a Trailblazer? I just don't know if the Trailblazer born here is Stellie or Caelus-cub."
Derick continued to have clone number two play dead.
Silver Wolf then asked Kafka, "What happened here? Why are there so many Voidrangers?"
"I don't know either." Kafka smiled and shook her head. "Anyway, it took a little time, but I dealt with them."
Saying so, she pointed to Derick's number two clone.
"And this fellow, judging from its energy, seems to be a new species of the Antimatter Legion. But it's not strong. Let's just leave it here as a little gift for the Herta Space Station."
"Whatever. Let's just do what we came here to do."
Silver Wolf didn't care about any new species. If Kafka said to leave it for the Herta Space Station, then leave it. Wasting time here was worse than finishing up quickly and going back to play a few more rounds of games.
Kafka and Silver Wolf walked towards the interior of the passage.
Although Derick was curious about the Trailblazer's gender, he couldn't go over in this situation.
He could only continue to lie there and play dead.
After playing dead for a short while, Silver Wolf and Kafka reappeared and walked further away outside.
Seeing the two of them leave, Derick finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Go on, get away from the space station quickly. Don't delay those researchers from taking me for experiments.
Derick waited a while, preparing to get up. But just as he was about to control clone number two to rise, two more figures ran over.
A boy in a windbreaker, holding a long spear, and a cute girl with pink hair, blue clothes, and a camera in hand.
Even more familiar.
It's the Astral Express's Dan Heng and March 7th, Derick thought.
After some consideration, he still didn't get up.
Right now, clone number two's identity was that of an Antimatter Legion member. If he stood up now, Dan Heng and March 7th would definitely attack Derick's number two clone, not even giving Derick a chance to control clone number two to write an explanation.
Derick knew that although Dan Heng looked taciturn and very calm, that was only in comparison to March 7th and the Trailblazer. Upon seeing a Voidranger, he would also unhesitatingly swing Cloud-Piercer to attack.
What if I show my immortality?
Dan Heng definitely wouldn't have any thoughts of keeping it for experiments but would directly throw it out of the space station, letting Derick's number two clone drift in space.
To avoid his number two clone suffering the same fate as Kafka (in his imagination of being captured), Derick had no choice but to continue playing dead.
Dan Heng and March 7th passed by.
After continuing to play dead for a while, Derick heard footsteps approaching again from the direction Dan Heng and March 7th had gone.
And this time it wasn't two, but three people.
Now is the time to witness the Trailblazer's gender.
Derick looked through his third-person perspective and saw a girl with gray hair, holding a baseball bat, with an extremely tall and slender figure, walking between Dan Heng and March 7th.
This world has Stellie!
Derick thought to himself.
The newly 'born' Stellie was still a bit ignorant about her surroundings, her eyes filled with clarity.
She then walked in front of Derick's number two clone and the other Voidrangers.
"What are these things?"
"They are Voidrangers of the Antimatter Legion," Dan Heng replied, then looked at Derick's number two clone. "As for this corpse, it also seems to be from the Antimatter Legion, but I've never seen it before."
March 7th raised her camera and took a picture of Derick's number two clone.
"This is another new species recorded."
March 7th said to Dan Heng.
"Mm." Dan Heng nodded silently.
And at this moment, Stellie walked over to Derick's number two clone.
Derick watched, his heart pounding.
Stellie, what are you going to do?
Derick couldn't guess Stellie's actions at all.
To some extent, Stellie was even more dangerous than the Antimatter Legion. After all, the actions of the Antimatter Legion could still be predicted somewhat, but Derick wouldn't be surprised by anything Stellie did.
Stellie crouched down and first poked Derick's number two clone with the baseball bat.
Derick didn't move.
Then Stellie picked up the scythe from clone number two's hand.
"Mm, this scythe looks pretty good. I'll take it and use it too," Stellie said, then picked up Derick's scythe and walked off.
She came before Dan Heng and March 7th.
"Let's go."
"Mm."
Dan Heng nodded silently.
The three of them left. Derick didn't know how to react.
What kind of behavior is this?
Robbery?
Not really, at least I didn't resist.
Then it must be a joke.
I've always been the one beating others, devouring and looting equipment. I never thought that one day, I'd be the one beaten up and having my equipment looted.
As expected of a Trailblazer.
Derick controlled clone number two to stand up, empty-handed.
"No, I have to find a way to find Stellie and get my scythe back."
You can't bully people like this!
Derick thought.
Then, he glanced at the other Voidranger corpses still beside him.
Mm, can't let them go to waste.
Derick controlled clone number two to devour all these corpses.
After eating, Derick felt clone number two had grown a bit stronger again.
Go!
He controlled clone number two to advance in the direction Stellie and the others had run off, hoping to catch up with them and find a chance to retrieve his weapon.
Of course, not by force.
Derick was still worried about Dan Heng sending him flying into space with Cloud-Piercer.
