Colonial Suit

Blood瞳 returned to the shuttle to a fanatical cheer from all the crew. But his expression remained indifferent. After disengaging from the wild beast, he and Robbie began researching their next target.

Originally, their plan was to head to the T6 space station, but after their recent encounter, they both knew that might be difficult. They had only just entered the T6 star region and already encountered space pirates. Their journey would undoubtedly be fraught with difficulties. They currently lacked armament and supplies, making it hard to sustain high-intensity combat.

In fact, at this moment, only Blood瞳 on the shuttle was capable of fighting. The other warriors, including Robbie, were unable to fight due to damaged armor.

In Robbie's cabin, the two men looked at the star chart with serious expressions, remaining silent.

"The closest mercenary control point to us now should be here," Robbie said softly, pointing to a spot on the star chart.

"This is U9, a perimeter guard point deployed by the Universe Mercenaries in the T6 star region. It was originally just a small fortress-type space station, but after this incident, it has likely been upgraded to a formal branch. We should be able to get enough supplies here."

Blood瞳 glanced at the location Robbie pointed to, discovering that it was in a corner of the T6 star region, far from the T6 space station.

He pondered for a moment, then got up, walked to the liquor cabinet, and poured himself a glass of whiskey.

After draining it, he lightly exhaled. "This incident must be significant. Has the Mercenary Headquarters not sent anyone?"

"They're preparing," Robbie rubbed his brow, answering with some headache. "But you know, the Universe Mercenaries have to control vast areas, and manpower is actually insufficient. If they were to mobilize enough warriors, it would inevitably weaken control in other areas. I suspect the Headquarters is also in a difficult position."

"Hmm, pour me one too."

After taking the glass Blood瞳 handed him, Robbie also drained it. His expression finally relaxed somewhat. "The key question now is, how many experts does the enemy have?"

"Hmm?" Blood瞳 frowned and sat down across from Robbie.

"According to known information, the space pirates and Death Mercenaries launched a raid on T6 with a total of several hundred people. Most of them are Vassal-class and Apprentice-class. There are also a certain number of Meteor-class. At the same time, in order to suppress Lord Hensel, they also dispatched three Falling Star-class. This high-end force is the real trump card. If the Mercenary Headquarters wants to suppress this, they must also send enough high-end warriors. But the problem is, even the Universe Mercenaries would find it difficult to mobilize so many high-end warriors in a short period of time."

Robbie explained softly. According to the rules of the Universe Mercenaries, only those below Meteor-class are easy to mobilize, while those above Meteor-class are cooperative relationships, and Falling Star-class even more so. To fight enemies with Falling Star-class, the Mercenary Headquarters must also show corresponding strength, which undoubtedly takes time.

Fortunately, the Universe Mercenaries have great power, with the support of Fourth World civilizations. So, as long as they finish communicating with the Falling Star-class warriors, they can immediately use Star Realm teleportation to send people over. They should still have enough time.

"How many people can Star Realm teleportation transport at once?" Blood瞳 suddenly asked.

"That's a Fourth World secret. I don't know either," Robbie shook his head with a wry smile. Star Realm teleportation can be said to be the Fourth World's most famous technology. It can ignore spatial distance and flawlessly transport living beings to every corner of the universe. This technology is almost like a dream. However, Star Realm teleportation consumes a lot of energy and is not used lightly. Only large organizations like the Mercenary Headquarters can obtain the support of the Fourth World.

"In that case, we can't get effective support yet?"

"That's right, so we must get supplies as soon as possible," Robbie said. "If we also want to wade into this mess, then U9 is not bad, and we can also get the latest information there."

"But that's still too far," Blood瞳 gazed at the light spot on the star chart, falling into thought.

In fact, he didn't want to go to U9. The main reason was that there was another place he had to get to as soon as possible. That was X35. Since becoming a Universe Mercenary, Blood瞳 hadn't returned to that doomsday planet even once. It wasn't that he didn't want to go back, but there was no opportunity. But now that T6 has fallen, it has given him this chance.

He wanted to go back and see if he could find Lier.

U9 was good, but it was too far from X35. If X35 was also affected by this war, then Blood瞳 could only watch helplessly, which was unimaginable for him.

"We're not going to U9."

"Then where are you going?" Robbie asked in surprise. He couldn't imagine Blood瞳 raising an objection. Besides U9, where else in the T6 star region could provide them with supplies?

"There's another place," Blood瞳 said seriously, looking at Robbie's surprised gaze. "There's another place that can help us. It's here..."

As he spoke, his finger landed on a point on the star chart.

"Camille Planet!?" Robbie's eyes widened as he saw where Blood瞳's finger landed.

"That's a tourist planet, located near the combat zone. Are you kidding me?"

"I'm serious," Blood瞳 replied calmly. A glint flashed in his eyes. "Camille is indeed a tourist planet, but I've been there. I know there's a place there that can help us. Maybe we can get enough supplies, even new armor."

"You're really crazy," Robbie shook his head repeatedly. Of course he knew Camille Planet, because it was the most beautiful planet in the T6 star region, and the only planet to have raised its civilization level solely on the basis of its environment.

But the problem was, what resources could a tourist planet have to help them? They needed weapons, armor, and plenty of ammunition, not flowers, beauties, or sunny beaches. And to cope with high-intensity combat, this equipment couldn't be ordinary.

Even ordinary planets found it difficult to provide such high-end weaponry. How could a tourist planet do it?

"It can do it," Blood瞳 said with certainty, an image of an old mercenary flashing through his mind.

"............" Robbie fell silent. He could sense Blood瞳's persistence. But for him, this was also a good thing, because he also had attachments in a certain place in the T6 star region.

"Okay. We'll do as you say. But you should know this won't be easy. Now that T6 has fallen, we could encounter enemies at any time."

"So we have to be fast enough. Once we get into Camille, it'll be easier," Blood瞳 replied. Camille Planet was a famous tourist planet, and generally no force would attack such a place. Not only was it not a threat, but more importantly, tourist planets were often watched by higher civilizations, and attacking such a planet would entail great pressure.

So, for Blood瞳 and the others right now, Camille Planet had become a good refuge.

"Alright! I'll go prepare," Having made a decision, Robbie went into action.

Soon, his large shuttle adjusted its direction in the starry sky, accelerating towards a certain point.

The next journey was spent in fierce combat. The T6 star region had become a war zone, and their shuttle, painted with mercenary symbols, had become the most conspicuous target. Almost every day, enemies appeared before them, but they were all killed by Blood瞳 in an instant.

Discover, attack, kill, silence.

This was what Blood瞳 had to do every day. Gradually, he felt like he had become a machine, repeating the process of killing.

They were also lucky. After flying at high speed for three days, most of the enemies they encountered were Vassal-class. Enemies of this level were no longer a match for Blood瞳. In fact, with his actual combat power, he could be considered the peak of Apprentice-class. If he added his full-strength armor, he could even fight Meteor-class. Naturally, he was now incredibly efficient at crushing them.

But this also attracted the attention of the space pirates. As they got closer to their target, the strength of the enemies rapidly increased. Finally, as they were about to reach Camille Planet, they encountered an Apprentice-class.

That was also a peak Apprentice-class, extremely skilled with ranged weapons. It was just a pity that he chose the wrong enemy. After fighting the Scion of Earth, Blood瞳 was now practically a quasi-Meteor-class. Even without armor, he was no match for him. So, in less than five minutes, Blood瞳 used a triple-break to block his movement trajectory, then punched him through the chest.

"Cough." The Apprentice-class space pirate coughed up a mouthful of blood, forming a large cloud of blood mist in the starry sky. His eyes wide, he hadn't even said a word before Blood瞳 tightened his hand and pulled it out of his chest. In his hand was a still-beating heart.

"You!" The Apprentice-class space pirate's eyes were about to pop. He only said one word before passing out.

Blood瞳 coldly glanced at him. Just as he was about to casually chop off his head, his expression suddenly changed and he looked into the distance.

There, he could vaguely sense a powerful aura approaching.

"Meteor-class..." Blood瞳 took a deep breath. Without another word, he flew back to the shuttle. The next moment, Robbie's shuttle, with a surging wake, plunged towards the Camille Planet below like a madman.

In the starry sky, only the corpse of the Apprentice-class space pirate remained slowly floating. From the bowl-sized wound in his chest, a massive amount of life-support agent drifted out.

The distant starry sky twisted for a moment, and a shuttle with astonishing speed suddenly jumped out of warp. Before it could even fully decelerate, an agile figure flew out of the shuttle, coming directly to the Apprentice-class space pirate's side.

He casually poked at the corpse of the Apprentice-class mercenary a few times, then his expression became extremely gloomy.

"Quasi-Meteor-class. I didn't expect this rat to have such strength. No wonder you needed me to take action. But you entered Camille Planet, do you think I wouldn't dare attack it?" The space pirate revealed a sneer. "You really underestimate people. It's just a tourist planet. What if I destroy it?"

As he spoke, he was about to fly downwards.

But at that moment, a voice suddenly broke the silence of the starry sky, saying with a light laugh, "As for how, it won't come to that, but you... won't be going down."

Before the voice faded, the starry sky behind the space pirate suddenly twisted, and a hand stretched out from it, directly grabbing the space pirate's neck.

The next moment, the space pirate was pulled into the distortion of the starry sky...
