Colonial Suit

The earth rumbled, and a huge mushroom cloud shot straight into the sky. Visible to the naked eye, a crater with a diameter of a thousand meters was blasted out of the surface of Serraridon, and metal bridges were uprooted. Tall buildings swayed and collapsed. People fled in panic. The whole scene was like the end of the world.

Meteor Fall, an advanced technique in the mercenary's grappling skills, was unleashed at this moment without any restraint, displaying astonishing destructive power.

Dark clouds gathered in the sky, stirred into a vortex by countless flying gusts of energy, forming a tornado of energy connecting heaven and earth. A large number of houses and buildings were sucked into the tornado, like toys being swept into the sky.

The floating castle shook violently, and the castle platform was in complete chaos.

Carrie stood quietly at the edge of the platform, watching below with Number Five Cowboy. She calmly said, "Who do you think will win?"

"Blood瞳, without a doubt." Number Five Cowboy shrugged, took out a cigar from his pocket, lit it, and coughed violently after taking a puff. "It's terrible. I really don't understand why anyone would like this stuff. I'll stick to my roll-ups."

"If it's terrible, don't smoke it!" Carrie said somewhat irritably. Then she asked, "Why? Why do you think Blood瞳 will win?"

"Isn't that obvious?" Number Five Cowboy rolled his eyes. "Have you ever seen Blood瞳 use his armor?"

"No."

"Then that settles it?" Number Five Cowboy scratched his head. "I know that guy; he only equips that weird armor when he's fighting at full strength. So, if he's not equipped, it means he still has some strength left. He's confident of winning."

"But the opponent is also a Comet-class, right? Barcro." Carrie took a deep breath, a look of unease flashing in her eyes. "He's a famous strongman in the Fifth World. It is said that in the Rocky Starfield, his name is enough to scare away space pirates."

"Well, that ends here." Number Five Cowboy chuckled, watching the chaotic earth below without a care. "You don't know, the enemies Blood瞳 encounters are never weak, but he's still alive and well. On the contrary, those enemies who are stronger than him have fallen one by one. This time will be no exception."

"Besides, they are not mortal enemies. It's just a temporary conflict. Do you think they will go all out?" Number Five Cowboy shook his head. "Nonsense. They can't fight to the death. Otherwise, the Mercenary Headquarters won't let them off. Blood瞳 is working so hard just to vent his anger for Robbie. If it continues, it may be more than he can handle."

"In any case, this battle ends here. Prepare to clean up the aftermath."

Saying that, Number Five Cowboy said to the second butler behind him, "Has Robbie's side been taken care of?"

"Mr. Robbie has been sent to the regeneration center. His injuries are not serious and have been effectively controlled."

"What about those troublemakers?" Number Five Cowboy touched his nose and asked.

"They have all been taken in. Most of them have only suffered skin injuries. But there is one..." The second butler hesitated, not knowing how to start.

"Speak, what about one of them?"

"It's very serious. I'm afraid it can't be cured."

"Dead?" Number Five Cowboy was stunned. This was a major event. If someone from the inspection team sent by the Mercenary Headquarters died here, no matter who did it, the Romick family would probably be held responsible.

"Not dead." Cold sweat was faintly visible on the second butler's forehead, but he didn't dare to wipe it. "There won't be any problems with his life, but his injuries are too serious. I'm afraid we can't heal him completely."

"Which guy is so unlucky?" Number Five Cowboy opened his mouth wide. He didn't believe that Robbie would act without restraint. It must have been the aftermath of the conflict between Blood瞳 and Barcro.

"It's the deputy leader. The Comet-class named Telk." The second butler swallowed and whispered, "The shock wave caused by the first fight between Lord Blood瞳 and Barcro happened to pass by his side, and he was scraped..."

"Then don't worry about him." Number Five Cowboy breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that he was not dead, and waved his hand. Seeing that the second butler was about to leave, he stopped him again. "As long as he doesn't die, it's easy to handle. Pay attention to the accommodation of personnel and arrange the treatment cabin. Even if he dies, he can't die here."

"Yes, I understand." The second butler respectfully agreed and left the platform with his head down.

Behind him, Number Five Cowboy rubbed his forehead and looked down, muttering to himself with worry. "Why are you so impulsive? How much trouble will this cause?"

Of course, Blood瞳 couldn't hear his words. At this moment, he had fallen into some kind of madness. He just kept punching down, each punch shaking the earth. No one knew how many punches he had thrown, but his fist strength had penetrated the earth and shattered the rock formations. Every time he punched, a stream of metal fragments would inevitably be carried into the air, as heavy as a hammer.

On Blood瞳's body, large areas of skin were torn apart, and each punch would bring up a cloud of blood mist. But he seemed to feel nothing. He still kept raising his fists and letting them fall...

"Young Master..." An anxious female voice sounded in the sky, and a figure in armor suddenly appeared above Blood瞳. Wasn't it the maid, Marie?

She rushed to Blood瞳's side quickly, shouting in a sharp voice. "Don't fight anymore, Mr. Blood瞳, we are not your enemy. You...please let the Young Master go..."

She was so anxious, looking like she was protecting her most beloved thing. She completely ignored Blood瞳's terrifying aura.

The scene was a little strange. You should know that Blood瞳 at this moment was covered in blood, exuding endless aggressiveness from the inside out. If it were an ordinary person, they would be scared to run away even if they took a look from afar, let alone approach him. But Marie never flinched from the beginning. Although she knew the danger of Blood瞳, she still ran over without hesitation. It was as stupid as a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

But unexpectedly, Blood瞳 did not attack her. Instead, he let her enter the battle circle, even arriving in front of the big hole where Barcro fell.

A gust of wind blew, stirring up layers of debris, also making the whole battlefield become blurred. Blood瞳 then stopped his fist momentum, allowing the wind to blow his short hair. "Are you worried about him?"

This was the first time he had spoken to Marie, but his voice was extremely hoarse, like a dry desert.

Marie was startled, but still gritted her teeth and said, "Yes...yes..."

After thinking for a while, she added, "I...I know that Young Master Barcro was wrong before. But...but he is also a space mercenary like you after all. We...we are not enemies."

"Isn't it a little late to say these words now?" Blood瞳 remained unmoved, still speaking lightly. He looked a little scary at the moment, not to mention his body full of scars, his fingers were still dripping with bright red blood, looking like a bloodthirsty beast. So even if he spoke inadvertently, he could release a kind of cold-blooded and brutal aura.

Ordinary people would probably have fainted from fright in this situation, but Marie still gritted her teeth and persisted.

She knew how dangerous Blood瞳 was at this moment. It could be said that he could tear her to pieces if he didn't agree with her. But for the Young Master...for the person she loved most. She still had to stand here.

Looking at Blood瞳 who was unmoved, Marie bit her lip. She said softly, "We...we are sorry..."

"If Mr. Blood瞳 can let the Young Master go...I...we can make compensation."

Speaking the last sentence, Marie felt that she was about to lose all her strength. You should know, who had ever said such weak words on behalf of the person she represented? If the Young Master knew, he would definitely punish her. But for the Young Master, Marie could only grit her teeth and endure it.

Hearing these words, Blood瞳 finally looked up at Marie. It was as if he had just met the maid for the first time. After a while, he sighed lightly.

"Don't apologize, in fact, you didn't do anything wrong."

Saying that, he bent down and put his hand into the big hole. There was a roar from the ground, and a figure was taken out of the big hole by him.

Wasn't it Barcro?

At this moment, Barcro looked extremely miserable. His combat uniform was tattered, and there were large and small scars all over his body. He lowered his head, looking like he had fallen into a coma.

Speaking of which, this was already good. You should know that the Meteor Fall used by Blood瞳 at the end was an upgraded version of Meteor Blast, which was also an advanced technique in the mercenary's grappling skills. Ordinary people would not even be killed by the contact of the energy, let alone being attacked head-on. Barcro was able to withstand it and only fell into a coma. It was enough to see how strong his body was.

As expected of a true Comet-class, the firmness of this body can be compared to a warship.

With a wave of his hand, Blood瞳 sent the red-haired boy to Marie. Then he said softly.

"In fact, you are right, we are not enemies. So until the end, he did not use the Destruction Technique. This is the only reason I let him go."

"Young Master..." Marie covered her mouth, tears glistening in her eyes.

How long had Marie been a maid, and when had she ever seen Barcro so embarrassed? Her heart was about to break when she saw him. She just took the red-haired boy in a fluster, and cried in his arms.

Looking at the grieving Marie, Blood瞳 shook his head and said, "Don't worry, he's just unconscious. His body has not suffered too much damage. In fact, my injuries are more serious than his... In fact, I lost this battle."

"Mr. Blood瞳..." Marie raised her head, looking at Blood瞳 in disbelief. She couldn't imagine why Blood瞳 would say that.

But what she didn't know was that this was Blood瞳's personality, one was one, and two was two. He never concealed anything.

Barcro had entered the Comet-class long before him, and it was nothing for him to lose to Barcro. After all, Blood瞳 had not yet awakened his own characteristics. Without equipping the colony equipment, he was not Barcro's opponent at all.

There was only one reason why Barcro was beaten like this by Blood瞳, that was that he was not ruthless enough.

Not ruthless enough to the enemy, not ruthless enough to himself.

But it was precisely because of this that Blood瞳 let him go. Otherwise, if he wanted to use the Destruction Technique here, Blood瞳 would summon the colony equipment and cut him down with a knife!

"Let's go, the Romick family should be ready. Send your Young Master for treatment."

Blood瞳 looked at the crying maid and said softly. "But after he wakes up, I hope to hear him apologize to me in person. Because no matter what the reason..."

"He is not qualified to hurt my companions."
