Chapter 73 It's nice to meet you
Edge of the Chengyu Galaxy.
A deep spatial rift suddenly tore through the vacuum, and the skeletal giant wolf, now only half its body remaining, stumbled out of the rift.
As a skeletal puppet incorporating the properties of [Scratching Mark], it autonomously activated all its abnormal activity at the most critical moment, creating a spatial passage.
However, even the skeletal giant wolf suffered great injuries while protecting Shirohime as she traversed space.
The flames of its soul in its empty eye sockets were almost extinguished. After bursting out from the spatial rift, its massive skeleton began to shrink.
In just a few breaths, the once ferocious and enormous skeletal wolf had shrunk to the size of a scruffy little dog, except that the dog's hind legs were empty, as if it had been cleaved vertically.
It pounced into Bai Ji's arms, its tongue licking Bai Ji's painted skin incessantly.
After escaping the encirclement of the Chengming Star Branch and passing through the raging spatial passage, Bai Ji's previously dazed mind finally recovered somewhat.
Her slender, bony hands gently stroked the head of the scruffy puppy, an overwhelming sense of lingering fear almost overflowing from the heart of this Purge agent.
The rumors circulating in interstellar society about her origins as Bai Ji are largely true; this painted-skin skeleton is a monster created by a civilization through alchemy.
Because of her upbringing and the ideas instilled in her by her creator, she developed a distorted personality during the formative stages of her consciousness, finding pleasure in destruction and devastation.
Later, she broke free from her creator's control and began a massacre, eventually wiping out the civilization of her home planet, which then disintegrated into insignificant fragments of dust in the universe.
She wandered on the fringes of interstellar society for many years, committing numerous bloody crimes, before being noticed by the Purge Bureau and recruited as a formal agent.
The Director of the Anti-Corruption Bureau once commented that Bai Ji was an existence with similar properties to anomalies, and her evil abilities created by alchemy made her infamous.
Yet this being, for the first time since its birth, experienced profound fear.
She recalled her conversation with the adjudicator after receiving the order from the head of the purge bureau.
Without any warning or preparation, the two people's perceptions, memories, and beliefs were suddenly reversed.
If it weren't for the Arbiter's desperate question before her death, she might not have realized her own abnormality until she was besieged and killed.
"What exactly is that thing—?"
This skeleton, created through alchemy, was perfectly suited to the harsh environment of a vacuum, yet Shirohime was shivering and trembling as if she couldn't bear the cold.
That's terrifying!
After an unknown amount of time, her trembling emotions finally managed to calm down.
"I need to find the chief; only the chief can save me!"
This was the first thought that popped into Bai Ji's mind.
If it is indeed some being with unfathomable power who has its eye on her, then she will not be absolutely safe in any corner of the universe.
Looking back on her memories, Bai Ji could only think that the Director of the Purge Bureau might be able to barely contend with this strange ability.
The contact mark left on her by the Director of the Purge had been lost at some point. After thinking for a moment, she quickly decided to head to the nearest Purge headquarters.
As for meeting up with the "Upside-Down Clown"—Bai Ji didn't dare to go at all. She was afraid that when she finally made it to the meeting point, what awaited her there was not her colleagues, but the being who wanted to kill her.
With a forceful pull of her right hand, she plucked a translucent white bone from between her ribs, and a human-like expression of pain appeared on the delicate face on the painted mask.
She gently tossed the skeleton into the void in front of her, where it expanded and transformed into the shape of a mini starship.
This is Bai Ji's backup starship. In terms of both function and characteristics, it is far inferior to the previous White Bone spaceship, but at this moment it has become the thing she needs most.
Once aboard the starship, Shirahime adjusted the parameters and course while soothing the scruffy puppy in her arms.
"Good girl, good girl, thank you so much this time. I'll repair your body after I'm safe—"
Before he could finish speaking, a sharp alarm suddenly sounded all around, a warning from the starship system.
"What's going on?!"
If Bai Ji had a heart, it would be in her throat right now.
Looking at the notification message on the starship's control panel, the tense expression on his face eased slightly.
"It's the fluctuation of interstellar jump—"
In the starry sky ahead, a small starship gradually emerged.
Bai Ji wanted to leave, but a bold idea popped into her mind.
She had expended considerable energy in the previous battles and during the journey through the spatial passage.
Given her current condition, returning to the nearest Purification Bureau outpost would be extremely dangerous, not to mention the unknown terrifying entity, even encountering a patrol team from the Anomaly Management Bureau would be quite perilous.
The starship in front of us has not yet completed its jump, and is practically at the mercy of others.
Judging from its model, it is just an ordinary private starship, the most common type in interstellar society, nothing special.
"Why don't we eat the people on this starship to replenish our strength?"
The moment the idea appeared in Bai Ji's mind, it began to grow uncontrollably.
She increasingly felt that this idea was entirely beneficial to her.
Killing the people on the starship and absorbing their life energy will allow her injuries to heal quickly, and she will also have some fighting strength if she encounters people from the Anomaly Management Bureau afterwards.
Moreover, if the starship did not have specific permissions set, she could have taken it for herself.
At that time, by turning the dead on the ship into his own puppets and creating the illusion that everything is normal, he can secretly drive himself to the Purge Bureau's stronghold without worrying about being intercepted.
After a brief analysis, Bai Ji felt that the starship that was about to complete its jump was a gift from heaven.
They delivered what she needed most at that moment when she was most helpless and in the most danger.
"That saying is true, no one can be unlucky forever."
With a smirk playing on her lips, Bai Ji steered her spaceship at full speed toward the starship ahead.
As she approached, the starship had just completed its jump, a moment when it was most relaxed and alert.
Just as her fingers extended into sharp, dagger-like bone spurs, about to carve a gash in the starship's hull, the starship's hatch opened from the inside.
A young human "walked" out of it, floating lightly into the vacuum, completely unprotected.
Upon seeing Bai Ji, the young man seemed somewhat surprised, but soon his astonishment turned into a genuine smile.
"I just looked at your information not long ago. You must be Shirahime."
"I was hoping to find you, I never expected to run into you in a place like this."
"Nice to meet you."
For some reason, seeing that bright and friendly smile, a surge of fear suddenly spread through Bai Ji's heart.
