Colonial Suit

Miss Carrie's price is indeed very high.

Just five minutes later, a sum of Star Coins was transferred into Blood瞳's account. The amount was so large that even Blood瞳 was taken aback.

It was actually a full five million...

Speaking of which, growing up in the Romick family, Miss Carrie knows how to utilize resources better than anyone else. She also has a better eye for things than anyone else. To be able to grow to a point where the patriarch is wary of her at just thirty years old is enough to show how formidable she is. Originally, this trip was a trap specifically designed for her. Since she wants to seize this opportunity with Blood瞳, how could she make a light move?

Don't forget that investment and gambling are compulsory courses for members of large families.

Looking at Carrie's nonchalant appearance, Blood瞳 was speechless. He's no longer a newbie, so of course he knows what this amount of money represents. Even a Meteor-class peak mission is only worth about a million. But Carrie gave him five million all at once, and that's just the deposit.

Truly bold!

"I just checked your information." Sitting on a soft couch covered with fur, Carrie lazily resembled a Persian cat.

At this moment, they had changed locations, and maids surrounded them. Carrie was still wearing only a few pieces of cloth, revealing her snow-white thighs and rounded buttocks. She picked up a cherry-like fruit and put it into her red lips, smiling charmingly as she spoke.

"You're really surprising... I didn't expect you to have fought with the Comet-class Robisk, and even survived. Do you know that your battle with Robisk has spread to the Mercenary Headquarters? The entire headquarters is shaken... Now they've promoted you to Meteor-class."

"............" Blood瞳 didn't speak, only silently drinking his wine.

He knew this was to be expected. His actions this time were indeed significant. If no one paid attention to even a fight with a Comet-class, the Universe Mercenaries should have been kicked out long ago. In today's fiercely competitive universe, any incompetent organization cannot survive.

He just didn't expect the Mercenary Headquarters to act so quickly. It had only been today, and he was already confirmed as Meteor-class. From this point, it can be seen that he is no longer a small rookie who just debuted.

Meteor-class, no matter where they are, are a force to be reckoned with.

"Did you find my companions?" After a moment of silence, Blood瞳 suddenly asked. Compared to his own news, he was more concerned about Robbie and the others.

"They are currently hunting down space pirates with Hank." Carrie gently bit down, and a stream of bright red juice flowed down her cheek. The bright red and white created a soul-stirring temptation.

"Do you need me to help you contact them?"

"Oh... no." Blood瞳 shook his head.

He had just recovered somewhat, but his body was far from being restored to its peak state. Blood瞳 didn't want to enter the Mercenary Headquarters' line of sight too early.

As he spoke, Blood瞳 felt a pain in his arm. A wound appeared on it without warning. Spots of blood flowed down the wound. A shocking red.

This was his current condition. After the battle with Robisk, although he survived by relying on the tenacious vitality of his enhanced cells, he suffered serious injuries. The cells were no longer as stable as they once were. They could die at any time.

But the good news was that the Core was fine. Through communication, Blood瞳 learned that the price of the Core's appearance this time was very high. The evolution of the Colony was forcibly interrupted. Furthermore, the Colony body was severely damaged due to resisting the Proton Annihilation Bomb. Most importantly, the twin shoulder positron cannons were annihilated due to the collision with the Proton Annihilation Bomb, and it would take at least a month to rebuild the cell structure.

However, this was not without its benefits. The battle with Robisk completely stimulated Blood瞳's potential, greatly accelerating his evolution. He crossed the first stage in one fell swoop, and no longer had to endure the pain of spasms that would occur at any time.

Most importantly... through this battle, Blood瞳 actually discovered that he had completed the initial evolution of his nervous system. Both his reaction and thoughts were more than a hundred times that of ordinary people.

Those who haven't experienced it will never understand what this change feels like, but in Blood瞳's view, it was like the most basic bullet time. Everything around him slowed down in his eyes. And he could freely control this switching of speed.

Now Blood瞳 finally understood why Robisk could suppress him. It wasn't just his magical armor. The key was this evolution! His near-lightning speed for ordinary people was only slightly faster than ordinary people in his eyes. Naturally, he could counter it. The reason he was made so embarrassed was mainly because he couldn't get used to his fighting style.

In the silent room, Blood瞳 thought silently, but didn't notice that his wine glass was empty.

Carrie stood up and sat down in front of Blood瞳, almost half naked. She stretched out a white arm to fill his glass. She acted very naturally, but from Blood瞳's angle, he could easily see her deep cleavage and the two red dots.

There was no doubt that Carrie had an excellent figure. She had all the curves in the right places, coupled with her fair skin and unrestrained expression. It could even be described as bewitching to the bone.

It was a pity that Blood瞳 was currently immersed in his own thoughts, and was blind to her.

"Hehe..." Carrie smiled nonchalantly. Then she naturally sat next to Blood瞳. She said softly, "I've stopped the ball."

"Oh?" Blood瞳 was stunned, and only then did he wake up from his thoughts. "Why?"

"Of course, it's not needed anymore." Carrie reached out, and a maid immediately brought her a slender gold-rimmed cigarette and lit it for her.

Carrie took a deep puff and then exhaled a cloud of smoke.

"Since discovering Mother's wishes, I've been holding balls for a week. I'm really a bit tired of it. Now that you've taken on this task, I'm too lazy to do it for her to see."

"You really have confidence in me."

"If I don't have confidence in a warrior who even the Comet-class is helpless against, then I don't deserve to be a member of the Romick family." Carrie smiled slightly, a flash of shrewdness in her eyes.

"I just don't know, Mr. Blood瞳, how do you plan to protect me?"

"How many guards are on this ship?"

"Ordinary guards number seven thousand, but I know you won't care about them. As for Meteor-class guards..." Carrie pondered for a moment. "Thirty-six people."

"That's amazing." Blood瞳 couldn't help but click his tongue. Only now did he see the foundation of a large family in the Fifth World.

It should be known that those are Meteor-class. Even in the star field battle that just occurred in T6, the Meteor-class deployed by both sides was only a dozen or so. But on this yacht alone, more than thirty people are concentrated. Isn't this a joke? Although Blood瞳 also knows that these people's combat power is completely different from that of Universe Mercenaries, Meteor-class is Meteor-class, and they are all elites who have begun to evolve.

A mere yacht has concentrated super-strong military force sufficient to suppress several star fields. Then what about the main body of the Romick family? How many Meteor-class would there be? Or even Comet-class?

"They are all family armed forces." Carrie blinked her eyes and said with a smile. "You should be able to see that their strength... um... is not as strong as it appears on the surface."

"Oh?"

"This is a genetic engineering technology." Carrie exhaled a smoke ring, then took a fruit from the nearby plate and took a light bite.

"Large families in the Fifth World will have this technology. Through this technology, they can be cultivated from a young age, allowing people to start evolution early. However, because this technology is not mature, so..."

Carrie didn't continue, but Blood瞳 already understood her meaning. This was forced growth, and it was mass-produced forced growth. Blood瞳 had personally experienced the pain and difficulty of evolution. Even with the help of the Colony, he had only just entered the second stage of Meteor-class. But these people had entered the Meteor-class without any training. What combat power could they have?

Perhaps they are extremely powerful in the eyes of ordinary people, but in the eyes of true warriors, they are exposed.

But no matter what, they are still Meteor-class. The large families of the Fifth World can actually achieve this with technology, which is really amazing.

"This technology is very practical, but the cost is a bit high." Carrie said vaguely while eating the fruit. "Generally, people who undergo such training will only have half of their lifespan left. And it is impossible to take another step in their entire lives. So it is generally called pseudo-evolution. However..."

Carrie put down the fruit core, her eyes narrowed slightly. "If you can get a special medicine from the Fourth World, you can minimize these sequelae. Even to the point of having none."

"............" Blood瞳 didn't speak, but he was extremely shocked in his heart. It took a long time to calm down. He stood up and walked to the porthole.

Looking at the vast starry sky outside, he said softly.

"Besides these thirty-six guards, what else should I pay attention to?"

"One person." Carrie said readily. "I don't know how Mother arranged it. But if she wants to attack me, then she definitely needs this person."

"Who is it?"

"Ice. His name is Ice, and he is the only naturally evolved Meteor-class on the ship." Carrie sighed. She looked at Blood瞳's back with a complicated gaze.

"I always wanted to recruit him. But he never gave me the time of day. So I guess he's Mother's man. This trip is for him to end my life."

"Don't think so pessimistically." Blood瞳 turned his head and glanced at Carrie. "If he's really as you say, I guarantee that he will definitely not take anything away. Except for himself."

Blood瞳's tone was extremely calm, as if he was stating something that was commonplace.

Carrie's eyes lit up, and a bewitching smile appeared on her face. She actually walked behind Blood瞳, then stretched out her jade arms and gently hugged him. Her fiery body pressed tightly against Blood瞳's, soft and full of elasticity.

"I have no doubt."

"Miss..." The cabin door opened and a maid walked in.

"We are about to arrive at Golden Paradise. The captain hopes you are prepared, we are about to leave warp."
