"Target entering wormhole range..."

"Second squad... no one... response... all... wiped out."

"Zzzzzz..."

Chuzheng opened her eyes to see an incomprehensible screen full of garbled text, with the vast Milky Way beyond.

There were intermittent noises in her ears, accompanied by ’zzz’ interference sounds.

Chuzheng felt a headache, as if someone had hammered her head.

Her body was fixed in a chair, the sides were slightly narrow, in front were those flickering garbled holographic screens, with a console at hand; given the equipment and environment, and the Milky Way ahead, this world should be in the realm of futuristic technology.

"Everyone return to the main ship!"

A voice rang in Chuzheng’s ear again.

-

In Star Era 1109, after millennia of change, humans have secured their position in the universe’s civilizations.

But some interstellar civilizations still covet humans, making war inevitable.

To protect their home, humans established the Alliance to safeguard mankind.

Initially, to encourage people to join the Alliance voluntarily and protect their homeland, every person who joined the Alliance returned with honor, making everything more convenient.

Moreover, as long as someone in the family joined the Alliance, the family would receive certain benefits.

The original owner was surnamed Liang.

The Liang family wasn’t particularly famous on Imperial Capital Star, hovering in the lower-middle tier, struggling to move forward.

Until the original owner met Lu Zhaonian, the famous scion of the Lu Family on Imperial Capital Star, at school.

The Liang family seemed to see the dawn of climbing further up the pyramid and urged the original owner to hold onto Lu Zhaonian.

Lu Zhaonian was young and promising, handsome, and well-mannered, the dream lover of countless girls.

As a girl herself, the original owner naturally couldn’t resist a man like Lu Zhaonian.

Thus, she naturally accepted the words of the Liang family.

But the Liang family couldn’t win the Lu Family’s favor.

The Lu family simply didn’t agree for them to be together.

Then, somehow, the Liang family thought of having the original owner join the Alliance to earn some achievements.

The original owner was attending the Military Academy and was planning to join the Alliance anyway, it was just a matter of time.

For Lu Zhaonian, after some deliberation, the original owner agreed to the Liang family’s proposal.

Arriving at the Alliance, the original owner started as a small soldier, quickly rising through the ranks due to several extraordinary suggestions.

The original owner’s advancement naturally led Imperial Capital Star’s Liang family to gradually step onto the stage.

After winning several brilliant campaigns, the original owner’s status grew increasingly high, finally able to fight independently.

However, in one battle, due to information discrepancy, the original owner made a misjudgment and fell into danger.

Yet, at the last moment, the original owner still sent back an extremely important message, becoming a key figure in the victory of the war.

The original owner’s fighter jet was drawn into the wormhole range, falling onto a barren star.

By the time the original owner found a way back, it was two years later.

When she returned, she saw her sister clad in wedding attire, married into the Lu Family, becoming Lu Zhaonian’s wife.

And she herself...

In everyone’s eyes, she was merely the ’fallen’ hero.

The original owner was intercepted by Liang family members before managing to enter the wedding venue, forcibly taken back home.

Her sister was already married, now her appearance was meaningless and would only embarrass the Lu Family.

After much effort, the Lu Family agreed to this marriage, and the Liang family wouldn’t allow her to ruin it.

The original owner was forcibly confined at the Liang family.

Her body was already damaged, not properly treated, and hardly a match for the people in the Liang family.

Proud of the glory brought by her ’death,’ the Liang family wouldn’t let her appear before others, choosing instead to lock her up until she died...

Chuzheng lay in the fighter jet, receiving all the memories.

Upon hearing the call to return to the main ship, the entire fighter jet lost control.

And now, here she was, lying in the chaos of the fighter jet, unable to move.

At this current timeline, it should be the point where the original owner’s misjudgment led to the fighter jet being caught in the wormhole.

In this world, wormholes were no longer so mysteriously terrifying.

They were often used as quick transport passages.

However, theoretically, such a fighter jet shouldn’t be able to traverse a wormhole.

But somehow, the original owner safely passed through the wormhole.

Of course, there have been similar cases before, wormholes, while not as mysterious and terrifying, are not completely controllable.

Chuzheng released the strap binding her, pushed away the twisted and deformed metal objects beside her, to make some space for herself.

The metal object had cut her leg, which was now bleeding.

Following the original owner’s memories, Chuzheng searched for the medical kit and found a small box inside.

Today’s technology could heal such an injury instantly, but... the thing was damaged.

Not only were the items in the medical kit mostly damaged, but other things weren’t in good condition either.

There was hardly anything usable in this fighter jet...

Consider me unlucky!

Chuzheng held back her frustration, manually treating and bandaging the wound.

According to the original owner’s memories, she landed on a barren star.

She would need to stay here for a year until she encountered another unfortunate soul who fell, then leave.

Sigh.

Chuzheng’s head was still aching, perhaps it was indeed damaged.

But she couldn’t rest yet; it was unsafe in the fighter jet, she had to leave.

With the fighter jet deformed in many places, the back was almost crammed together, Chuzheng opened a ’window’ beside her and carefully climbed out.

The ground was desolate, not a green plant in sight, all covered in gravel, air dry.

Looking further, a fog obscured everything.

In the original owner’s memory, this barren star’s fog was toxic, inhaling it wouldn’t cause immediate harm, but it would continuously damage the body.

This was why the original owner’s health deteriorated later.

Chuzheng released Yin Xian, surrounding herself, blocking weapons.

What should I do now?

Wander the barren star?

Survive on the barren star?

This initial situation is quite interesting.

Anyway, barren stars aren’t that bad, at least no need to waste resources...

[Miss, I think this idea isn’t very good.] King’s Account tried to assert its presence.

"I think it’s quite good." Chuzheng nodded seriously.

[...] How is it good? Don’t you want the Good Person Card?

King’s Account, having made its presence known, said nothing more, probably because there was nothing it could do now.

Chuzheng pulled out whatever could still be used in the fighter jet, halfway through realized she had quite a few things in her Space, what was she doing gathering this trash?

So Chuzheng tossed everything aside and left.

She walked a few steps, paused, took a deep breath, it was painful...

With no one around, Chuzheng didn’t bother to maintain composure, caught her breath, and limped forward, soon swallowed by the mist.
