Chapter 37 At this time, Beckett was still on his way
On the edge of the Kree Empire, Tofa Star, a secret research institute.
"Astra, where is Astra?"
Early in the morning, when Christine, the captain of the institute guard, saw that the bedroom where Astra was supposed to be asleep was empty, her face suddenly became gloomy.
"Who was in charge of protecting Astra last night?"
"Captain, they're here!"
Christine's face became even more ugly when she saw the unconscious guards that the guards had found in the closet and bathroom.
The Kerry army that escorted Astra back to her home planet Hara was on their way, but the target to escort them was gone.
"Everyone, at all costs, get Dr. Astra back!"
"Don't be in such a hurry, Christine, when you can't find me, why don't you ask the magic bottle and ask it where it sees where I am?"
"Hiccup~"
The rugged man who was burping shook his waist, reached out to adjust the position of the little brother in his crotch, rubbed his nose, and poured Tofa's unique liquor into his mouth, satisfied.
"Astra, I should have told you that this is a special time, and the most important thing you should do is not to go out for a drink, but to wait in the research institute and in the bedroom for our army to escort you home safely!"
After seeing Astra, who was holding two bottles of wine in her hand, appeared, Christine was obviously relieved. In turn, he began to reprimand the "scientist" for not knowing the seriousness.
"How can I find inspiration without drinking?"
"How can I continue to refine the formula without inspiration?"
"You guys, that's a big fuss."
"Tons and tons of tons of ......" poured himself several sips in a row, Astra raised his hand to wipe the wine stains from the corners of his mouth, and leaned against the doorpost.
"I'm telling you Christine, this thing is really a good thing, would you like to try it too?" As if thinking of something interesting, Astra touched the cross scar on the smooth head with his left hand and raised the bottle in his hand towards the stern-looking captain.
"Come on, don't be so serious, take two bites, it's like we were in L77 a hundred and thirty years ago."
"Astra, I hope you understand that I'm not kidding you, a hundred and thirty years ago was a hundred and thirty years ago, and now is now." Reaching out and snatching the bottle from Astra's unsteady hand, Christine then threw it in the closet.
Fragments of broken bottles mixed with alcohol woke up unconscious guards.
"Actually, I think it's a big joke for you to let these recruits protect me." Without the bottle, Astra didn't care. Instead, he hooked Christine's shoulder and pointed to the group of guards in front of him: "You see, they can't even stop me from wanting to go out for a drink, what do you think they can protect me?" ”
"Protect my corpse?"
"Or shoot me before the enemy takes me completely?"
"You're drunk, Dr. Astra." Squinting at the rugged man who was shoulder-to-shoulder with her, Christine waved her hand and motioned for all of her men to step back.
"Really? I don't think I'm drunk and I can even drink two more bottles. Oh yes, I still have two bottles of Blue Dream in my room, they are pretty strong, do you want to try them? Astra tapped the door of her head and strode over to the storage cabinet in her room, leaning down to find her treasures.
"I should have told you, I don't drink. And, I'll repeat to you, it's a special time. Theoretically, I don't recommend drinking it either. ”
"I'll tell you, this thing in my hand tastes pretty exciting. Strange, I remember it was placed here, why is it gone? Got up and drank it while dreaming last night? ”
Apparently, Astra didn't heed Christine's warning.
Christine, who was miserably ignored, took a deep breath: "Since you think they are weak, then from today onwards, I will protect you." ”
"Oh? Are you sure you're better than those scraps? ”
Astra, who seemed to have finally found something, turned around, and a heavy artillery cannon was carried on his shoulder, and the muzzle of the cannon was aimed at Christine, who looked stunned in front of him, and there was a black broken mouth snack in his mouth, which was filled with smoke.
"It's a perfect mimic. However, it was my brother who drank with you at L77 a hundred and thirty years ago, not me. ”
"Now, die, Skrull!"
The dazzling tongue of fire swallowed and drowned Christine in front of Astra's eyes in an instant......
"Phew, disgusting energy barrier."
There was no earth-shattering sound from the energy artillery, and seeing the green figure coming out of the raging fire, Astra poured a few sips of wine and threw away the old man who had been with him for many years.
"Have you given up struggling? You seem to be far worse than your brother. ”
The Skrulls, who had regained their original appearance, looked at the big man in front of him who seemed to have given up resistance, and his eyes were full of banter.
"My brother? Have you met my brother? ”
Astra, who had thrown away her weapon, moved her thick arms, and when she heard this, she frowned and looked at the Skrull in front of her. “
"Of course, I was very impressed by your brother. Before leaving, he was kind enough to ask me to stay on L77 to watch a big explosion, but I failed him. Shrugging, the Skrul's hand was raised, and the pitch-black battle suit sprouted two spikes on his arms, a sharp cold glow illuminating Astra's eyes.
"Magma?!"
The only text information that remained in his memory quickly stepped into Astra's mind, and the acquaintance with his brother, the explosion of L77, and the protruding spikes in his arms, the only one who knew all this and this characteristic was the Skuru Margma who went to L77 that year.
"You actually know my name, it looks like you didn't study the war that happened on L77 back then." Hearing this, Magma raised his eyebrows in surprise, but the movements in his hand were not ambiguous, and he stabbed directly at Astra, who was tall and tall.
"Ah, of course. Your name I think about almost every night. ”
Zheng!
The sound of metal clashing echoed through the large bedroom, and Magma, who was heading towards Astra, flew out of the room at great speed.
The big movement that finally came out of the toss attracted the alarm of the research institute, and the members of the large security team instantly blocked the various passages of the research lock, and at the same time, a part of the people quickly rushed to the place where the alarm occurred.
[Not good! 】
Astra's eyes froze, and he was about to move forward when he was strafed by the weapon in Magma's hand.
"Guess what, will those people be able to find me?"
Putting away the spikes on her arms, Magma smiled, dodged into the passage on one side, and completely disappeared in front of Astra's eyes, leaving Astra alone with a gloomy face.
"Go and protect Dr. Astra!"
"Hurry up!"
Christine, dressed in the uniform of the Kerry Garrison, methodically gave orders to the team members she met along the way, but her figure gradually drifted away from the research institute.
And at this time,
Beckett was still on his way......
"The twentieth space jump will start in five seconds, please fasten your seatbelts when you have finished resting."
"Five, four, three, two, one, space jump, start."
