"Quick! Get these transported to Lord Giles' shuttle. This is important equipment. Handle with care!!"

"Beep beep beep!"

"Hey, what is it? I'm busy here. Oh, it's Lord Ace's supplies? Okay, I got it. Give me fifteen minutes."

"Prepare immediately, boys. You only have fifteen minutes! If I don't see the listed supplies after fifteen minutes, you're all cleaning toilets! Mark this, these are Lord Ace's supplies, deliver them to the designated location first!! What, you're asking me what's in the boxes? Are you out of your mind? Do you dare ask Lord Ace yourself? You don't dare? Then shut your mouths!!"

The supply warehouse of the mothership was a scene of bustling activity, with tens of thousands of soldiers working diligently and in an orderly manner, transporting countless supplies to designated locations. There were tens of thousands of such supply warehouses on the mothership, enough to meet the logistical needs of hundreds of millions of space warriors. In fact, this mothership was designed for cosmic warfare, and its comprehensive capabilities had reached a terrifying level.

Of course, the number of space warriors needed to be dispatched at the moment was not that large, so not many warehouses were being used.

This warehouse appeared particularly busy due to its high-security level. However, seeing the listed supplies being transported one by one, the chief warrant officer in charge of the warehouse breathed a sigh of relief.

As an ordinary soldier, his abilities were already outstanding. But he still didn't dare to delay the journey of a space warrior, otherwise, he would lose his job the moment he was blamed. Only when the supplies entered the process did he feel relieved. Furthermore, when he thought of the generous reward he would receive after this mission, even he, who was usually irritable, revealed a smug smile.

This reward was several thousand star coins. Surely that old woman from Jia Star would be satisfied, right? And his own children, who were eagerly waiting to be fed, would definitely get the best nutritional supplements and he could also pay for the fees of the nurturing school. Thinking of this, the chief warrant officer couldn't wait to finish the mission and return to his warm home on Jia Star.

Indeed, a man drifting outside always needs a haven for his heart… Should he also consider retiring?

Thinking like this, the chief warrant officer habitually glanced at the smart device in his hand, and then his eyes suddenly widened.

"Damn it! What, what? There's another message here. What? I didn't receive any instructions!!"

"Chief Warrant Officer, you already received instructions before!" a soldier replied.

"Shut up! Would I be derelict in my duty?" The chief warrant officer roared in anger. While scolding the soldier, he opened the message and was stunned after just one glance. Then his face instantly turned as pale as paper, and his whole body trembled uncontrollably.

"This… this…"

"Chief Warrant Officer, what does the message say? Which supplies do we need to transport?"

"Chief Warrant Officer? Chief Warrant Officer?"

The soldiers called out one after another, only to find that their chief warrant officer had completely fallen into a daze. After a while, the chief warrant officer suddenly shuddered and shouted hoarsely.

"These are Lord Blood瞳's supplies! Damn it!! What, what's going on!?"

"Lord Blood瞳's supplies?" The soldiers were also stunned, as if they couldn't believe their ears. "But weren't those supplies supposed to be with Lord Heck? What's…"

"How would I know!" The chief warrant officer roared, nearly going crazy. "Quick, you guys, quickly separate Lord Blood瞳's supplies from Lord Heck's supplies. We only have… damn it… we only have five minutes! Act immediately! And prepare a brand new shuttle, with all the supplies and logistics systems, including support personnel!! Immediately apply to command! All of these must be completed within five minutes!!"

"No!!" The soldiers were almost going crazy. "This is impossible. No one can complete so many tasks in such a short time. Chief Warrant Officer, are you going crazy?"

"I don't know what you mean by going crazy!" The chief warrant officer's face was twisted, obviously driven out of his mind by this almost impossible task. "But I know that if you can't complete all of this within five minutes, even the captain can't stop you from cleaning toilets, you guys!!"

"Oh God!! No!!" All the soldiers wailed together, but still acted quickly. Perhaps the chief warrant officer had left them too little time, but they had no choice. They could only hope to complete the task in the shortest possible time.

But just as they were in chaos, the warehouse door suddenly opened and a group of people walked in.

"Who is it! Don't you know that entry is prohibited here?" The chief warrant officer roared. Just as he was about to order the soldiers to throw the intruders out, he suddenly froze.

Because in his sight, these intruders were clearly not staff members of the mothership, but a group of sturdy men wearing tight-fitting combat suits. Their formation was loose, seemingly without discipline, but they occupied all the advantageous positions as soon as they entered the warehouse, controlling the situation in the first instance.

These people's appearances were very ordinary, the kind that you couldn't find if you threw them into a crowd. But even the most irrational person could clearly feel the blood-like aura emanating from them. That terrifying aura that could only be possessed after experiencing countless life-and-death struggles.

"Meteor-class… no, Comet-class??"

The chief warrant officer stared dumbfounded at the series of data jumping out of the detector, completely terrified.

The data indicated that these people were at least Meteor-class, and several of them had even reached the Comet-class level. Oh God, that was the realm of space warriors, enough to dominate one side even in the Fifth World. How could they be gathered here? And it looked like a tight-knit team? What kind of powerhouse could gather them together??

The chief warrant officer was sweating profusely, feeling uneasy.

At this moment, a slightly thin man walked out from the group, standing in front of him with a cold aura.

"My name is ライト," he introduced himself simply. "I am the leader of Lord Blood瞳's retinue."

"I'm here to collect our supplies."

"Blood… Lord Blood瞳?" The chief warrant officer stammered, almost unable to speak.

He was worried that his dereliction of duty would be discovered, but now the person in charge had appeared. It would be a lie to say he wasn't afraid. You had to know that they, as staff members, had strict discipline. Any slight mistake would cause severe punishment. And he had just made such a big mistake. At this moment, he was really panicking like crazy.

But contrary to his expectations, ライト didn't care about his dereliction of duty. Instead, he said calmly.

"Hasn't it been sent yet? Then it's good to hand it over to us here."

"But my Lord," although flustered, the chief warrant officer still said dutifully. "Shouldn't Lord Blood瞳's supplies be in the same group as Lord Heck's?"

"Lord Heck?" ライト was slightly stunned, then his face darkened. After a while, he said. "No, I think you need to re-divide the groups."

Saying so, he no longer paid attention to the chief warrant officer and immediately ordered his subordinates to take action. These sturdy warriors gathered Blood瞳's supplies with unprecedented efficiency and then quickly transported them out. When the supplies were almost transported, ライト threw a list to the chief warrant officer.

"This is our list. You can keep it yourself."

Then he no longer paid attention to the chief warrant officer, turned around and walked out of the warehouse with his companions.

Looking at his sturdy back, the chief warrant officer's face was green and white, and the list in his hand was crumpled into a ball.

A soldier mustered his courage and asked. "Chief Warrant Officer, is there something wrong? Should we?"

"Shut up!" The chief warrant officer interrupted the soldier. He looked down at the list in his hand. "There's no problem with the list. But this matter is no longer something we can interfere with. Immediately report to command."

Saying so, he turned around and silently stared at the starry sky outside the window.

"I… suddenly have an ominous premonition."

It's a pity that no matter what the chief warrant officer thought, he was just an ordinary person. In this universe dominated by space warriors, his voice would never be heard again.

Thirty minutes later, the mothership opened a part of its launch bridge, and shuttles flew out of the hangar one by one.

Seen from space, they were as small as bacteria, yet densely packed like an ant colony, flying towards the ruins planet below under the leadership of their respective captains.

And among these densely packed shuttles, there was one inconspicuous shuttle that attracted the attention of many people.

"Blood瞳…"

Standing in front of the porthole, Heck silently watched Blood瞳's shuttle and sighed. At this moment, he seemed much older, and his whole person exuded a sense of decadence.

Behind him was the woman named Rainbow. She was also watching the densely released shuttles below.

"One of those shuttles is your companion, right? I've met him, a very good little guy."

"He is very good." Heck smiled wryly. After a while, he continued. "But the little guy and I had some conflicts and he plans to go solo."

"You don't want to intervene?" Rainbow looked at Heck strangely. "I know he's very important to you. It's her inheritance, right? That… cold rose."

"What do you want to say?" Heck's gaze turned slightly cold. Suddenly, he exuded a strong chill from the inside out. "Rainbow. Are you challenging my patience?"

"I'm sorry, Heck." Rainbow shrugged her shoulders, but then said.

"But what I want to know is your attitude towards this matter. You need to know that it's not just your business now. The kid and I are your allies. Although we are quite familiar with you, we don't want to become victims for no reason. If you insist on protecting him, then there's nothing to say, but if you have other ideas… don't forget that the people coveting him are Black and White."

"Black and White!?" Heck smiled slightly, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes. "I've wanted to compete with them for a long time. This time, I won't miss the opportunity."

"Even the person behind them doesn't matter to you anymore?" Rainbow asked strangely.

"Sometimes you always have to make a choice." Heck replied. Then he said to the attendant next to him. "Prepare the shuttle, we're going down too."

Saying so, he ignored Rainbow and walked out of the room first. Watching his back, a strange glint flashed in Rainbow's eyes. A smile appeared on her lips.

"What a fun game."

She stretched greatly, revealing her graceful figure. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian (qidian.) to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
