In the universe, there is no concept of space and no time.

Of course, this is only a relative aspect, not that space and time really do not exist, but for the void of the universe, space and time have no meaning.

As for Jordan and the others on the Phoenix fighter, space and time are like a long river flowing in the world for eternity, which has not changed because of anything, has never increased, and has never decreased.

In a small fighter space, Jordani and others suffered for 174 days.

In the past six months, Jordan and others have begun to strictly control food, and each person can only be allocated a small amount of what they need to sustain their lives every day.

Fortunately, this persistence was not in vain.

When Jordani and the others were almost out of ammunition, a spaceship that looked like an oval sea urchin finally discovered the existence of Jordani and the others.

As Loki said, there is no shortage of low-level people in the universe who work as coolies.

The cruelty of the universe is a hundred or a thousand times more cruel than that on the earth, and among the endless intelligent beings, there are always some who are not good at mixing and even unable to eat.

These poor people at the lowest level, in the struggle of hard work, have developed a group of intelligent creatures that specialize in salvaging floating garbage in the universe, also known as interstellar salvage.

Interstellar salvages are not professional miners, but if they encounter ready-made meteorite belts, and these interstellar salvages do not have a good harvest, they will also make a fortune to see if they can extract some precious materials and mineral resources from these ready-made raw ores.

Among the alien spaceships that found Jordani and others were such a group of interstellar salvage.

However, the contacts between the two sides are obviously not very friendly.

These interstellar salvages themselves are the lowest group of people in the universe, including interstellar gangsters, interstellar hooligans, and many interstellar bandits who are wanted by some large cosmic forces.

After discovering the fighter plane of Jordani and others, this group of interstellar salvage fighters did not have any humanitarian rescue spirit.

After a not very difficult battle, Jordani, Tony, and Loki soon appeared in the oval spaceship, and in front of them were a group of strange-looking intelligent creatures.

With the translation equipment that they brought out of Battlestar before, Jordan's communication with these cosmic creatures is not a problem.

Pick and choose a humanoid creature that looks more pleasing to the eye from among the group of strangely shaped creatures.

Jordan carried a pistol in his left hand and a holy sword in his right hand, with the temperament of a mountain king on his face, and said, "I asked, you answered!" There is no reward for answering correctly, and if you answer wrong, I will send you to God, understand? ”

To break through the spaceship's defenses, Jordani used only two swords.

After entering the ship, Jordani fired only three shots against the strongest of the group.

When Jordani's words fell, the chosen humanoid seemed to hesitate, did not say anything, but nodded.

Jordani put away the holy sword, touched his chin, and said, "Who are you?" Where are we now, what is the star field? ”

The humanoid creature almost didn't think about it, and said, "We are the interstellar bosses who are sheltering under the Universe Elder Collector, and this is a cosmic dark space in the Wenge Star Domain of the Heavenly Furnace System!" ”

"Huh!" Jordani paused, feeling as if he was listening to a book from heaven.

Whether the other party is lying, or is it right, in fact, for Jordani, it is useless at all, so after the other party answered Jordan's question so cleanly, Jordani was stuck there.

Jordani's original intention was to find someone to come out at random and use it as a flag bearer, to kill chickens and monkeys, and to deter others.

But Jordani didn't expect that this thing would be so simple that he didn't even have a reason to kill.

Seeing Jordani's shell, Loki stood up and said, "We need some supplies, and go to the nearest life star field, as long as you cooperate, no one will be harmed, among you, who can call the shots?" ”

As the group of people with the lowest status and income in the universe, they also dare not have any resistance to the demands of Jordani and others.

Two days later, the heavenly furnace system, barren land.

The oval-shaped spaceship broke through the air from a star gate, and immediately after, a planet the size of the moon appeared in the sight of Jordan and others.

Through the window of the spaceship, Jordani and the others could clearly see that there were countless spaceships and space fighters dragging their bare tails, like busy bees, going in and out of the huge planet full of passages, looking quite busy.

If that's all there is to it, that's fine.

What really shocked Jordan and the others was that the moon-sized planet, from a distance, looked like a skull, as if the head of some creature had been taken off, dried and placed in space.

Among the interstellar wanderers captured by Jordani and others, Jordani and others did not get what they wanted.

The universe is vast and huge, and a group of interstellar wanderers, and even the spaceship under it, are all leased from this skull planet, and the star map in it is incomplete, and they can only sail in a fixed star field.

And this skull planet is the base camp of this group of interstellar salvagers.

The Barren Lands, the Territory of the Elders of the Universe.

After seeing this skull planet, Jordani was shocked at first, and then quickly, a series of images and memories flashed in his mind.

This planet should be the collector's territory in "Guardians of the Galaxy".

At a glance at Jordani, Tony, Steve, including Saul and Loki, all showed extremely shocked expressions after seeing this amazing scene.

Jordani looked at Thor and Loki and said, "Have you heard of this place when you were in Asgard?" ”

Thor and Loki looked at each other, slightly embarrassed.

This is also a hidden passive attribute of the Asgardians, and it is called the pride of the world if it sounds good, but it is not obvious that there is no one in the eyes, well, it is normal if you haven't heard of it.

However, as if to alleviate the embarrassment, Loki paused and said: "Although I haven't heard of the situation here, but I know something about the owner here, Tanlia Tiwan, who is rumored to be one of the surviving beings in the last Big Bang, because he has survived for an extremely long time, he has become one of the elders of the universe, known as the richest and strongest in the entire universe, and at the same time, because he likes to collect some strange things, he is called a collector!" ”

Thor also nodded and said, "I also know the collector, Asgard has had some business cooperation with the collector for a while, and here we will definitely get a star map back to Earth!" ”

The two brothers, you and I said a word, although I couldn't say anything substantial, but some cosmic anecdotes also made Jordan, Tony, Steve, and Hobbs listen to it with relish.

However, after a few moments, the spaceship slowly entered the interior of the planet.

Hobbes, who had been watching the flowers and not saying much, suddenly spoke, "Thor, Loki, how is the relationship between you Asgard and the Collectors?" ”

"Huh!"

Thor and Loki were both stunned, then a little silent.

Well, when these two people were in Asgard, they were obviously mascots-like existences, bragging and pretending to beep, but they really had to participate in something specific, and they couldn't give any hope.

After a pause, Thor spoke, "Hobbs, why do you suddenly ask that?" ”

Hobbes had a strange look on his face and said, "I just want to know, can you rely on your connections to get a credit from the collector or something, I think this place, there is no ATM for us to withdraw money." ”

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then gasped.

Tony's face was a little painful, and he said, "You say, can you pay in US dollars here?" ”

Steve looked serious and said, "I guess not!" ”

That's a real problem, and it's a big, big problem.

It is also a universal truth that money can travel thousands of miles without money, even in the universe.

The group of interstellar salvages captured by Jordani and others are themselves legendary difficult households, otherwise, they would not have been reduced to the point of picking up trash in space.

It is unlikely that a sum of money will be seized from these people.

Star charts, even in the universe, are extremely precious things, just like the charts in the Age of Discovery.

What's more, Jordan and the others want to go back to Earth, even if they don't buy a spaceship, they have to transform everyone's Phoenix fighter.

Either of these is too expensive.

As he spoke, there was a slight turmoil in the spaceship where everyone was, and with a pulling force, the entire spaceship approached a moored spaceport.

Not for long.

A group of interstellar salvage shipships are recovered, and Jordani and the others, surrounded by a group of heavily armed alien soldiers, arrive in a museum-like building.

There is a charge for docking and replenishing in this barren land.

Thor and Loki shouted shamelessly that they were the princes of Asgard, with noble identities and cosmic status, and Jordan and his party had the opportunity to be brought to the palace of the Universe Elder Collector.

I have to say, this is indeed a sad story.

Although Jordan and the others have good combat power, it is definitely unrealistic to rely on six people to fight against an entire planet.
