Take a break! All the stars for the only guide

Chapter 1 S-Class Sentinel

Lu Zhizhi died eighteen years after the end of the world, which was also her eighteenth birthday. But at this moment, she found that she had just been born.

Suffocation, lack of oxygen, weightlessness.

It was like a dozen hands were pressing on her mouth and nose at the same time.

She felt like she was about to suffocate to death, and to make matters worse, a huge, twisted shadow covered her.

A deformed monster was showing her its huge mouthparts, dripping with unknown liquid, and it looked twisted and hideous.

Are you going to be eaten?

Her eyelashes trembled and she closed her eyes in despair, but what awaited her was not severe pain but a cautious gesture of goodwill.

The monster gently wrapped a vine around her waist and brought her to an ancient tree that was towering into the sky. The tree split open its trunk, revealing the inner wall, and then hid Lu Zhizhi in the trunk, allowing her to curl up in an oval, soft cavity. She could breathe instantly!
This is a plant-type alien beast.

Lu Zhizhi didn't know that the alien beasts in this world were ferocious and cruel, had no consciousness, and lived by devouring humans. But she was carefully protected by this alien beast.

"Guide. Purification..."

The alien beast's pleas echoed in Lu Zhizhi's ears. Before she could figure out what a guide was, suddenly, a violent noise came from outside.

"Brother Jun, we can't keep killing them like this! They are level 4 alien beasts, we can't... ah... cough!"

A vine popped out of the man's throat, not giving him a chance to finish his words.

The man whom he just called 'Brother Jun' turned around, revealing a cold and ascetic face.

He is estimated to be about 1.9 meters tall, with broad shoulders and long legs. The tight black combat uniform outlines the man's strong chest muscles and sculpted muscle lines. All the places not covered by the combat uniform are covered with tattoos.

There were ancient Sanskrit tattoos on the sides of her neck and behind her ears. Her tattooed arms were made up of complicated arrays, and even her ten fingers were tattooed with small patterns of unknown meaning.

On that tattooed wrist was a string of blood-stained Buddhist beads.

There was no emotion in Li Chenjun's indifferent pupils.

He saw the vines in the man's throat sucking blood, so he raised his hand and fired, but he didn't hit the vines, but the head of the brother who had been through life and death with him.

"Brother Jun! Why are you killing our own people?!"

It was too late for one team member to stop it, but after he finished shouting he knew he had broken the rules.

They were a bounty hunting team, and everyone was under the command of Li Chenjun, and could not question any of his decisions. Not only because he was the captain, but also because he was one of the only five S-class sentinels left in the galaxy.

Li Chenjun glanced indifferently at the corpse on the ground, with no intention of explaining.

Suddenly, a heart-wrenching warning came from the team members in front: "Retreat!!! Retreat quickly!!!!!!"

But it was too late.

Countless vines came swiftly from all directions and entangled everyone in the blink of an eye.

Some sentinels had their faces wrapped in vines, leaving only their bulging eyeballs exposed; some sentinels had their ankles entangled in vines and were dragged for more than ten meters on the ground, screaming in agony. Half of the ten-man team died in an instant, and the rest were struggling.

Someone collapsed and yelled, "Brother Jun! This thing can't be killed! It's too weird!"

Plant-type alien beasts usually don't actively attack sentinels, but as soon as they entered this area, this alien beast abnormally attacked, as if it was protecting something.
The team members saw Li Chenjun throw away his gun and thought he had given up resistance.

But then, an invisible force rose from under Li Chenjun's feet, like a tornado, causing the air to tremble and instantly crushing the ferocious vines. In the blink of an eye, the ground was covered with blood mist.

Is this the absolute strength of S-level? Too scary!

Everyone in the team breathed a sigh of relief, but Li Chenjun looked solemn.

Because he knew that he was on the verge of going berserk.

His breathing gradually became heavier, and his mind was like a vibrating singing bowl, emitting circles of noisy and sharp noises. This was an invasion of spiritual pollution.

Sentinels are people with super-strong five senses and are humanoid killing weapons, but everything has two sides. Their keen senses make the Sentinels suffer from mental pollution all the time and they can easily go berserk, so they must have a guide to provide mental counseling for them.

However, there is no guide in the entire galaxy anymore.

Suddenly, a giant black eagle appeared in the sky, facing the wind, and was circling violently above Li Chenjun's head - this was his spiritual body, which at this moment emerged uncontrollably from the sea of ​​​​consciousness.

This shows that Li Chenjun's spiritual world is collapsing. This is a precursor to rampage.

"Brother Jun——" The team members' tearing voices echoed around. They tried to wake him up in this way, but it was of no avail.

Lu Zhizhi, who was curled up into a small ball, was startled by the noise outside.

Suddenly, the ancient tree could not withstand Li Chenjun's attack and spasms began to form inside the trunk.

With a snap, a crack appeared in the darkness.

She stretched out her hand tentatively, trying to touch the gap through which the light came.

At the same time, Li Chenjun relied on his remaining consciousness to gather all his strength in his palms, and stretched his bony hands towards the tree trunk. Two hands, one large and one small, pressed against the tree trunk, and a dazzling white light burst out in an instant!

An intense feeling of pleasure swept over Li Chenjun; every pore of his body relaxed, and with it came a feeling of warmth and tranquility rising from the bottom of his heart.

His soul was trembling, and his empty eyes gradually came into focus.

‘Boom——’

The man's knees fell heavily to the ground, his hands holding onto the tree trunk, his whole body trembling slightly.

The team members looked at the sudden scene in surprise.

"Brother Jun's energy seems to have stabilized instantly?"

"Is it purification?"

"How is that possible? Where can we get a guide? What the hell do you want?"

Someone wanted to go forward to help Li Chenjun up, but was stopped by a well-mannered young man. He was the team doctor and the only ordinary human who was not a sentinel but could participate in the bounty mission.

Ji Yaoguang's voice was gentle, but his attitude was firm: "Don't touch him, his spiritual sea is connecting with others."

Lu Zhizhi couldn't understand how she suddenly found herself in the sea.

The sky was covered with dark clouds, making it hard to breathe.

She rose and fell with the waves, and her already weak body gradually sank into the sea.

Before she lost consciousness, Lu Zhizhi felt a strong arm wrapped around her waist.

She subconsciously wanted to hold onto something, but she reached out and touched a warm and broad shoulder. Out of her survival instinct, she hugged the other person tightly.

Due to the repeated washing of sea water, her eyes were now too dry to open.

The oxygen in the lungs was drained away bit by bit, and Lu Zhizhi struggled with her hands and feet, trying to float up.

But the hands holding her would not let go.

She kicked the other person angrily, but the next second, her jaw was pinched and lifted up.

Her mouth was invaded and entangled in an extremely domineering way, which made her mind stagnate for a moment, but soon she was forced to survive and tried hard to take the other party's oxygen.

Li Chenjun's cold eyes flashed with surprise. He looked at the girl in his arms who had become the host and frowned slightly.

As an S-rank sentinel, he had undergone purification before his guide became extinct.

But every time he was purified, he either felt severe nausea and pain because of the mismatch with the guide, or the guide's comfort was like a drop in the bucket and had no effect at all.

But her purification made him feel no pain, and even felt like he had been redeemed.

Yes, the girl in my arms is a guide.

He became a traveler who walked in the desert under the scorching sun for months and finally tasted the sweetness of water.

At this moment, the black eagle spread its wings and let out a sharp cry that pierced the sky. In his spiritual sea, the dark sky suddenly cast a beam of golden light.

Li Chenjun couldn't resist the attraction engraved in his genes. He closed his eyes uncontrollably, feeling her spiritual threads caressing every pore of his body, allowing her to absorb his breath.

But the next second, he felt a sinking on his shoulders and his whole body fell into the water.

Li Chenjun suddenly opened his eyes and saw Lu Zhizhi stepping on his shoulders, her slender body swimming hard upwards.

Lu Zhizhi was about to see the light of day, but she felt her ankle tighten. She looked down and saw a face with deep features but extremely cold.

The man's eyes were sinister, and at this moment he was holding his ankle with one hand, staring at her.

Lu Zhizhi didn't hesitate. She kicked her white little feet on the handsome face and swam upwards with force, breaking free from his restraints.

She thought she would have to swim to the shore, but in an instant, the surrounding scenery turned into flowing light and shadow, and she returned to the warm tree hole.

At the same time, Li Chenjun pulled himself out of the spiritual world and suddenly opened his eyes.

He quickly took the knife and mercilessly split the tree trunk.

Everyone saw golden light overflowing from the cracks in the tree trunk, and the main body of the alien beast let out its last sigh, filled with deep attachment and reluctance.

The next second, the man's black pupils shrank suddenly.

I saw a human cub curled up in the tree hole, protected by layers of overlapping vines, and its big, black, clear eyes were blinking curiously.
