The male supporting character was actually myself.

Xiao Bai stroked its ears, then suddenly had a flash of inspiration and jumped down for a few seconds before running back to follow its host to have the chip implanted.

"Where did you go?" Jiang Chen asked curiously.

It said in a concerned tone, "Of course I'll go back and finish you off!"

To prevent the protagonist from waking up too quickly, I hit him with the stick again!

Anyway, he's the main character, so he won't die.

"Let's just let him lie there for a while, so he doesn't get in the way of our business!"

Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow slightly. "Not bad, little guy, you've made progress. You're teachable!"

It seems that if we keep it around for a while longer, it will be able to team up and cause trouble for the main character.

The tail ball squeaked twice, indicating that the script had entered the update phase.

Implanting the chip requires a terminal device and costs 100 interstellar coins. He completed his first task and received a five-fold reward, which amounted to 50 million interstellar coins, temporarily stored in a temporary interstellar card.

In the technologically advanced interstellar world, identity chips serve as all the means closely related to an individual, including ID cards, household registration books, bank cards, and various certificates.

Interstellar cards are temporary storage cards without passwords or names, and are very popular on lower-level planets, since most people there do not have identity chips and are therefore unregistered.

After swiping his card to pay the fee and filling in the basic information, Jiang Chen watched as a dilapidated little machine emitted a deep blue light, implanting a blank chip into his wrist, which then immediately disappeared.

"Alright, this is a level 2 chip, it can only travel to level 2 or lower planets," the person in charge of implanting the chip reminded him.

He moved his wrist and found that he felt no discomfort.

He swiped the Star Card on his wrist, and "Beep, deposit amount 49999900!"

Jiang Chen currently has no concept of the purchasing power of interstellar coins, but he imagines that 50 million is not a small amount.

After leaving the small house where the chip was activated, he stopped by the smuggling point and bought a spaceship ticket.

The Level 1 planet, known as the Wasteland, is located at the very edge of the galaxy, barren, desolate, and filthy.

Many of the people living here are descendants of exiled convicts or people who have been displaced for various reasons. They are poor, uneducated, and have no social standing; the entire planet is filled with violence, suffering, and poverty.

The strangely shaped buildings on the street were dilapidated, and occasionally some broken robots could be seen moving among the crowds.

Just as Jiang Chen emerged from the smuggling point, he saw a group of ruthless thugs leading a group of people past. This was a common human trafficking organization.

"Oh dear, miscalculation!" As the group of people walked away, Xiao Bai suddenly patted his host's shoulder and said, "We should have tied up Lin Fan and sold him to human traffickers!"

Haha, let's see how he can act so cocky now!

Jiang Chen sighed, "Xiao Bai, you need to use your brain when reading scripts."

What was the protagonist Lin Fan's action plan before the update?

He first stole my chip, activated it, and then took the old photos to Ya Village to bury my deceased grandmother Xia!

Although the reason was not stated, would someone like Lin Fan be willing to spend money to bury an old woman with no relatives or friends?

There must be some hidden plot points related to Xia's maternal grandmother in the original story.

So when I activated the chip, I deduced that Grandma Xia had already passed away, and there was no point in keeping the chip.

If you hadn't acted alone just now, I would have stopped you from finishing off the enemy.

Lin Fan fainted for a while, and when he woke up, he realized that there was still time. He would not change his original plan and would definitely make a trip to Cliff Village.

I activated the chip to buy a boat ticket, firstly to prepare everything, and secondly to give Lin Fan time to run to Cliff Village.

If my calculations are correct, the period during which we couldn't keep track of the protagonist's schedule due to script updates has already passed.

That way, when I rush back, I'll just catch him plotting to take Grandma Xia's body!

At critical junctures, the main system will definitely seize the opportunity to assign me tasks. Wouldn't that mean we can complete another task?

If Lin Fan were betrayed, not only would he not be caught, but he might even escape control. Therefore, it's best to avoid deviating from his original plan.

Xiao Bai was a little confused.

After pondering for a long time without figuring it out, it simply gave up and said softly, "I promise I will never act alone again, and I will follow the host's instructions from now on!"

After going around in circles and taking care of everything, Jiang Chen spent five interstellar coins to get into a dilapidated vehicle that looked a bit like a steel centipede.

"Cliff Village." As soon as Jiang Chen got on the bus, the act of swiping his chip attracted many envious or jealous glances.

However, once a chip is bound, it cannot be retrieved even if the person is killed, skinned, and dismembered, so no one has the idea of ​​robbing chips.

The vehicles rattled and clattered as they drove through the desert littered with all sorts of garbage.

Due to the geographical location, battles of all sizes frequently occur here, resulting in the loss of various aircraft and spaceships.

Eighty percent of the people living on the desolate prison rely on scavenging for a living, and Xia Jiangchen is no exception.

Every day they hoped that a spacecraft would crash near them so they could be the first to rush up and seize the most precious resources!

Xia Jiangchen, being young and strong, has a greater advantage in comparison.

In addition, to save money, he often slept on the streets. The day before yesterday, he had a stroke of luck and found a working engine in a dilapidated aircraft buried in yellow sand, making a fortune. Only then did he save enough money to buy a blank chip on the black market.

Xia Jiangchen's elderly and frail grandmother lives in Yacun Village, an hour away from the city. Every other day, Xia Jiangchen hitches a ride on a delivery truck to visit her and buy her some treats.

Repeatedly recalling the few memories I have, it seems that my grandmother never mentioned anything about her background.

But the fact that Lin Fan values ​​the old photos and the burial site so highly suggests that Grandma Xia is hiding a secret.

More importantly, she was literate and had beautiful calligraphy. Therefore, Xia Jiangchen learned to write and acquire a lot of knowledge about the galaxy from her grandmother from a young age.

"Creak..." After getting off the car, Jiang Chen ran all the way back to the dilapidated little house. When he pushed open the door, he found that his grandmother was indeed nowhere to be found!

Xiao Bai was greatly amazed, "Host, your calculations are so accurate! Lin Fan is really quick. So... where do we go to find him?"

"Village shrine!" Jiang Chen rushed towards the huge metal building outside the village.

[Task: Carve Lin Fan's name on Grandma's tombstone. Reward: One random universal item; 10 points x 5]

"Damn it! She's not his grandmother, she has absolutely no relation to him, why should his name be on the tombstone?" Xiaobai was furious. "And what about the item rewards? I'm going to complain!"

The script for Chapter 3 has been updated!

Receiving the new assignment only strengthened Jiang Chen's suspicions.

Is his name engraved on the tombstone?

With a slight frown, Jiang Chen did not slow down at all as he pushed open the door of the ancestral hall.

Sure enough, there were many people busy inside, and Grandma Xia's body was placed on the altar in preparation for cremation!

"Lin Fan! You murderer, you're trying to cover up the crime?!"

The door was pushed open, and the crowd, who were mechanically busy preparing for the ceremony, all looked over. Then, Jiang Chen's confident shout resounded throughout the hall.

"Uh...you're a child of the Xia family? Then who is he?" Finally, someone recognized Xia Jiangchen.

Because Xia Jiangchen lives outside the village, he doesn't often stay in the village.

In the impoverished cliff village, everyone was only concerned with their own survival, and no one cared about other people's messy affairs, so many people only had a vague impression of him.

The young man who brought Grandma Xia's body today didn't talk much either. He wore his hat very low, so much so that no one noticed him.

Moreover, in everyone's impression, many people simply throw the bodies of their deceased relatives into the depths of the desert to save money, without even bothering to dig a pit.

Aside from his own grandson, who would be willing to spend fifty interstellar coins to cremate a poor old woman who has no inheritance?

At this moment, Xia Jiangchen himself appeared and uttered those words, immediately causing chaos.

He had already prepared himself emotionally, and rushed forward, punching the astonished Lin Fan to the ground. "Bastard! You didn't take my chip, so you tried to harm my grandmother!"

You murderer!

murderer!"

The original owner, already over 1.85 meters tall, towered over Lin Fan, his perfectly sculpted muscles exuding powerful aesthetics. His punches were equally impressive, landing solid blows that left Lin Fan sprawled on the ground, teeth knocked out.

"I didn't kill anyone!" Lin Fan shouted as he dodged, "I...I was doing a good deed..."

"Pah!" Jiang Chen kicked him. "Grandma was fine when I came back the day before yesterday. Today you failed to rob me, and you come to my house to do good deeds?"

Nobody would believe you!

"If you didn't kill anyone, why were you in such a hurry to cremate and bury my grandmother!"

Lin Fan had unspeakable bitterness in his heart.

I thought that being reborn with a system would make everything go smoothly, but I never expected that the original protagonist's halo would be so damn bright!

Everything was planned perfectly, but they ended up getting beaten up while trying to steal chips;

When he woke up, he saw that there was still time, so he quickly came over to cremate and bury the old lady. He engraved his own name on the tombstone so that General Mu would remember it when he came looking for her in the future.

Once he enters the military camp, he can directly replace Xia Jiangchen's identity by scanning the chip and become General Mu's personally groomed successor!

Xia Jiangchen, who is like a persistent ghost, actually chased after us!

Damn it, I wasted fifty interstellar coins on incineration fees!

Lin Fan was almost crippled. He used the power of the system to escape the beating and jumped onto the public solar-powered vehicle that happened to be coming. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.

Jiang Chen didn't chase after him. Anyway, he couldn't kill the protagonist, so he just wanted to vent his anger.

People who have become accustomed to evil and conflicts of interest have long been numb.

For them, it was just a matter of someone else paying the money, so they quickly began preparing for the ceremony so that Jiang Chen could say goodbye to his grandmother's remains.

As for how someone died, nobody cares or will care. If you have the ability, take revenge yourself; if you don't, just suffer in silence.

Maintaining public order?

Ha...it doesn't exist.

Only those with strong fists have the power to prevail; otherwise, nobody cares whether you live or die.

This is the law of survival for those struggling in the desolate prison.

On the surface, Grandma Xia was a tall, thin old woman with dark, rough, and loose skin from years of exposure to the scorching sun, and her thin body was covered with wrinkles like tree bark.

Even so, it couldn't hide the obvious scar on his left wrist!

So, Grandma's chip was forcibly removed?

In an interstellar setting, Jiang Chen might believe that the chip couldn't be removed, but that only applies to ordinary people.
