Chapter 107: No Money
Ethan reunited Star-Lord and the others, and the Milano and the unnamed Marauder brought by Yondu all began flying in the same direction again.
As for where to go? These people don't have a plan, they just want to watch and do it, they can fly anywhere, and the temporary goal is to find a planet to replenish some basic supplies.
Star-Lord also wants to talk to Ethan about this commission.
"I don't know why, but I always feel like you've become different. ”
Star-Lord kept looking at Ethan, obviously the same as before, he hadn't even changed his clothes, but it gave him a feeling that Ethan had changed a lot, but he couldn't find the reason why he felt this way.
"It's just some magical comprehension, you don't have to worry too much about these things, let's talk about the commission. ”
"Yes, yes, we're only interested in commissions. "Rocket Raccoon has been staying next to him, because of his height, he stands on the table next to him, and he can only have an 'equal' conversation with Ethan and the others.
"Wait, this seems like 'my job opportunity', right? It shouldn't have anything to do with you!"
The relationship between Star-Lord and Rocket Raccoon has not improved much because of the elimination of Igo together, after all, Rocket Raccoon had chased and killed him before, and Star-Lord was caught off guard by the ambushed Rocket, and he still relied on his newly killed father to escape the predicament.
Now it seems that if he had been caught by Rocket Raccoon back in front of Yongdu at that time, maybe there would not have been a lot of troubles that happened later, but that doesn't mean that he can forget about those holidays - losing face is a big deal, so easy to ignore.
While the two guys were arguing, Ethan noticed that Nebula and Gamora were talking together all the time, and although both women had stinky faces, as if standing next to this person made her feel uncomfortable, the conversation between them never stopped, and with her superior hearing, Ethan could hear what they were saying.
Gamora and Nebula have been discussing Ethan.
From the content of the conversation between the two women, it can be seen that this is not the first time they have discussed themselves, and the sisters have not agreed on some things.
Nebula thinks that he should find a way to get Ethan to go against Thanos, and it is best to kill Thanos by the way. Although she doesn't know if she will be able to succeed, and she doesn't know if she can compete with Thanos with Ethan's strength or if she will be killed by Thanos.
She doesn't care if Ethan lives or dies at all, if Ethan can survive, even if she can't kill Thanos, it proves that Ethan is a strong man who can fight against Thanos, considering that there are also Asgard's brothers, killing Thanos is no longer impossible.
If Ethan can't defeat Thanos and can't even save his own life, then Nebula will either die together or find a way to save his life and then look for the next opportunity.
After all, Nebula didn't know Ethan at all, and from the very beginning, she agreed to follow Ethan just to achieve her own goals.
After reuniting with Gamora, bickering, and confirming the thoughts of the other party - both want to kill Thanos!
It's just that Gamora doesn't quite agree with Nebula's idea, she thinks that even if she wants to fight Thanos, she shouldn't involve people who have nothing to do with it.
Nebula's explanation for this is that the Asgardians hold the Infinity Stones, and Thanos will find them sooner or later, and they are already naturally on the opposite side of Thanos, so they can't be called irrelevant people at all.
Occasionally, there were some sarcastic words about how Gamora suddenly became soft-hearted, and whether she wanted to be a good person. Gamora, of course, would not let Nebula taunt her, and inevitably spoke a few words, and then explained her plan - to hide the information of the Infinity Stones as much as possible, so that Thanos could not get these gems.
As long as Thanos can't collect all the Infinity Stones, then he won't go ahead with his terrible plan.
Gamora's plan is to procrastinate, to hang Thanos' attention with the Infinity Stones, maybe after countless years of delay, Thanos will grow old? At that time, there may be a way to deal with him...... Right?
She wasn't very sure about it, because she hadn't seen any signs of aging since she knew about Thanos as a person, to the time she became his adopted daughter and was raised and raised by him.
There are many races in the universe, and there is no shortage of immortals, and she is not sure how long Thanos will live, but when she clearly understands Thanos's strength, she doesn't think that anyone can confront Thanos head-on, so she can only choose such a negative response.
Even though she had just witnessed the battle between Ethan and Iago, she wasn't quite sure that Ethan had the strength to confront Thanos head-on.
She just thinks that with Ethan's strength, she can keep the Infinity Stones well, and maybe Thanos will never be able to collect all the gems.
In this case, there is no need to take the initiative to provoke Thanos, so there is a suspicion of sending the Infinity Stones to the door on their own initiative.
The sisters are still arguing, and Rocket Raccoon and Star-Lord are barely arguing with a result - there is no result, neither of them is convinced, but it is on Star-Lord's spaceship, and Ethan is indeed here to find Star-Lord, so the two of them quarreled for a while, and finally asked Star-Lord to talk to Ethan.
"I need you to help me do a detailed survey of a planet, to be honest...... I don't know much about that. ”
"Survey?"
In the past, it was not a clean job entrusted to Star-Lord or the Marauders, and it was not their turn to do things like this to survey the planet, and Star-Lord had no idea that Ethan wanted to entrust such a job.
"Surveying the planet? ”
Rocket Raccoon said that, but he still didn't leave.
"Shut up!"
Considering that he had just killed his father, his stepfather seemed to be in a state of bankruptcy, and he had no income for a while, if he hadn't made a sum of money from Ethan, he wouldn't have been able to survive now, and he would have taken the initiative to take on various jobs to make money.
"Why are you looking for me for this kind of work?" Star-Lord thought for a moment, but explained a little: "It's not that I won't do these things, it's just that this kind of work of surveying the planet is done by special teams sent by some countries, and few people like us are hired." ”
What's more, most of the planets in the galaxy have been surveyed, don't look at the galaxy is so big, but most of the habitable planets have been occupied, and the few that are still vacant have long been marked by powerful forces, and no one else can touch them casually.
If you want it, you can buy it for money, and if you have a good price, you can sell it for a small habitable planet!
As for the large ...... A planet rich in resources will not be transferred by any civilization force at will, and wanting to get such a planet basically means an interstellar war.
But even if you capture the planet, the target planet has already been surveyed, so it seems that there is no need to find someone to survey it again, right?
"The planet I ask you to survey is not in the Milky Way. ”
"Not in the galaxy?"
Star-Lord hasn't said anything yet, but Rocket Raccoon has shown some interest in the mission.
"Is it a planet from another galaxy, or a wandering planet in the Dark?"
The so-called dark area refers to the large area between galaxies that seems to have nothing, of course, there is not completely nothing in these areas, there are all kinds of particles, particles, atoms and other materials, and there are also stars, but they are not as 'dense' as the stars in the galaxy, and they do not necessarily move in what direction, and they are not sure where they will eventually go.
It may be captured by a galaxy at some point and become a new member of the system, or it may have been wandering in the dark regions.
"I'm sorry, but I can't reveal the details for the time being, but if you accept this commission, I will be able to tell you more. ”
In Ethan's opinion, Rocket Raccoon is not something that must be kept secret, and if there is no accident, the raccoon and the tree will still join Star-Lord's team - because he seems to have nowhere else to go, maybe this commission will be the first official mission of the Guardians of the Galaxy?
"So it's a completely unknown area?"
"Unknown star fields, unknown planets, everything is unknown, I need to find a veteran with a lot of experience, after all, I have no experience in this area, and I need to find someone I can trust, so I will come to you. ”
Star-Lord nodded, Ethan's reasoning was convincing, and he would make a similar choice if he were faced with such a situation.
"You made the right choice, and I took the job. Star-Lord didn't care about the reward, because he had the impression that Ethan was not a stingy person, and the reward he gave for hiring himself to find the cosmic spirit ball was very generous: "Let's talk about the specific situation." ”
As he spoke, he was still waving his hand to signal Rocket Raccoon to hurry away, and then he was going to discuss the content of the work with Ethan.
However, Rocket Raccoon is never an obedient person (Raccoon?), you ignore his words, he may leave on his own when he is bored, and Star-Lord refuses to go when he tries to get rid of him, and stands there with his shoulders and sprays Star-Lord again - just taunting each other.
But Ethan's words drew the attention of the two people back.
"One thing I have to make clear to you in advance, I can't get paid for this commission. ”
Star-Lord didn't ask about it, Ethan could have asked him to complete the task first, and then use other ways as compensation, even if Star-Lord wanted to refuse, Ethan's matter would have been settled.
However, this was contrary to Ethan's principles, and he felt that it would be better to explain the situation in advance, even if Star-Lord refused his commission this time.
"What? No money, what's the point of talking about without money?"
Rocket Raccoon behaved even more fiercely than Star-Lord, as if it wasn't Star-Lord who couldn't get the money, but him. However, Star-Lord was silent for a moment, and still expressed his willingness to accept Ethan's commission.
