2. Treasure Thieves

"Buzz"

The engine of the spaceship vibrated slightly, and the elegant and swift Milan Hao slowly fell on the surface of the planet Morag, and at the moment when the red battleship that was like a winged phoenix fell, tens of millions of dust were splashed on the ground. Well, the second or third wave of visitors.

Star-Lord's face slowly turned ugly as he watched the Milan's computing mastermind's assessment of the planet on the environmental analyzer in front of him.

The geology of this planet is really very unstable, and any slightly large-scale energy reaction is enough to completely extinguish the last stability of this planet and make it completely disintegrate, no wonder Yongdu is willing to pay 1 billion to recruit warriors... This is simply here to die!

As we all know, when pirates are looking for something, they don't dig over the stones with warmth, and their favorite thing to do is to blast through the obstacles and get the treasure they need.

"Oh, let's pay tribute to Mr. Zollard, who is far away in heaven..."

Star-Lord pretended to be silent for a moment, and then began to pack his bags, as for why he mourned, it was simple, the great Mr. Zollard was a helpful warrior who helped the Milan attract the attention of the Cree starship, and at his own expense, opened a way for Mr. Star-Lord to hide behind him to the heart of the Cree Empire.

Although this was not Zorard's intention, isn't such a great sacrifice worthy of a moment of silence?

"Click"

Quill put something similar to a neck guard around his neck, pressed it, and with the sound of machinery, a black helmet flew over his head, this is a multi-functional helmet designed by Quill himself, wearing it, he can breathe freely in all kinds of harsh environments, and there is a multi-spectral visual collection device, although it looks like an ancient Nazi poisoning mask, and the two round goggles that glow red are enough to scare any child.

Because earthlings are much weaker physically than other aliens, Quill can only protect himself in this way.

"Click"

Two Elemental Radiation Guns were put in the holsters around his waist, followed by flamethrowers on his feet, which allowed him to get over most obstacles, even short-range flights in space if necessary, and of course all sorts of strange things, designed by Quill himself, were the means by which he became the top scout and treasure hunter on the Yongdu team.

An interstellar pirate doesn't raise idlers, especially those like him who don't have much combat power, and if he wants to survive, it's too difficult.

"Milan, open the hatch!"

Quill shouted back, and the next moment, the door to the lower compartment of the red phoenix-shaped spacecraft opened, and Quill stepped into the storm of acid rain that enveloped the world on Morag.

"Poof"

A rat-like spooky flesh cramped into a mosaic by his foot, and Quill shrugged his shoulders and cursed the weather, then took a white searchlight-like thing from his pocket and began to search for the information he needed.

And behind Quill's undiscovered, in the black rocks under the acid rainstorm, a pair of eyes hidden under white spots, with a predator's gaze, coldly looked at Quill who stepped into the destruction of the planet, of course, it did not act immediately, it still has reason, it has not forgotten what its master commanded, it has tried many times, and even drove the big rat to die, but it has not been able to open the door of the temple, perhaps, this human in front of him who lacks vigilance and is extremely weak... Can help it!

So in this acid rain storm that enveloped a planet, a man and a beast with each ghost child quietly advanced towards the broken temple in the center of the planet.

"What is this?"

As he turned into the valley towards the temple, Quill suddenly found the wreckage at his feet, which was a fragment of metal that shone with a faint arc of electricity, he cautiously stretched out his hand, and the metal instrument on his wrist quickly formed a metal tweezer, clamped it, and the moment he touched it, the arc jumped, and Quill put it in front of his eyes and looked at it.

"What seems to be a fragment of a weapon?"

Star-Lord sensed that something was wrong, if there were still primitives in this ruined planet who could craft metal weapons, then it meant that the danger was gradually increasing, although it was embarrassing to say, but in fact, if there were more than 10 primitives with blades here, Quill would have to find a way to escape.

He's not a martial artist...

"Gotta fix it before it gets tricky..."

Quill looked left and right, still not seeing any danger, but he already had a bad premonition in his heart, he quickened his pace, and in only ten minutes, he walked to the front of the temple deep in the valley, he looked at this glorious building that obviously did not belong to primitive people, he breathed a sigh of relief, groped left and right, and found the complex keystone opening.

It's a pity that in the time of 10,000 years, this original delicate structure has been almost corroded, so a few minutes later, Quill used a small metal rod with a complex structure in his hand that can operate automatically, and easily opened the door, and at the moment when the gate opened, the air that had been sealed for 10,000 years gushed out of the temple, and even brought a gust of wind.

"Whew..."

After making sure that the air here was harmless, Star-Lord took off his visor, looked left and right, and turned on the Walkman on his belt again, letting the melodious music float in his ears, and with the pace of music, he temporarily forgot about the danger, and walked into the temple building left by the ancient and civilized Cree people.

"The only energy source here that's still running... Well, underground?"

Star-Lord glanced at the tiny detector on his wrist, he scratched his chin and looked at the weathered ancient murals on the walls around him, he quickly smelled the treasure, so he picked up speed again, and in the shadows higher behind him, a black shadow silently passed through the stones, and he still couldn't find it.

"Wow, look what Star-Lord has discovered!"

After jumping directly into the ground through a hole, Quill looked at the energy preservation furnace in front of him that had been in operation for thousands of years, and he rubbed his hands excitedly, almost with the naked eye, he could see directly that within the blue energy grid, a metal ball with a silver-gray hollow pattern was slowly rotating.

This thing is almost exactly the same as the picture message given by Yongdu, and with years of experience in treasure hunting, Quill can be sure that this thing is what he is looking for!

"Cosmic Spirit Orb!"

Quill took a deep breath, and he took out a thing from behind his back that had a strong attraction to metal, and as he carried it, he muttered:

"Yondu is an idiot, he thinks I'm really going to believe that this thing is only worth a billion? This thing is at least 3 billion or more, and with this money, I can get out of that bastard's territory and become a decent planetary explorer, instead of being an interstellar pirate who will be caught and executed if he enters the country... I don't want to die in a surprise attack. ”

"I... I'm going back to Earth!"

Quill glanced up at the energy preservation furnace that was still running, he wiped his chin, took two steps back, and opened the device at his feet, the powerful attraction sucked the silver-gray cosmic spirit ball out of the energy grid little by little, like luring a mouse out of the burrow, less than 10 seconds.

"Bang"

The cosmic spirit ball was absorbed on the oversized magnet, and Quill excitedly picked it up, as if he was holding his own life and future, but before he could hold the treasure in his hand to warm up, a black shadow screamed, fell from the sky, and smashed in front of Quill.

It was a humanoid monster covered in fine black scales, with muscles and claws as sharp as knives, and disgusting white spots scattered across his head, and beneath the fastest spots were a pair of small, vicious eyes, a mouth full of uneven teeth, and the most fatal thing was the red, snake-like, slime-stained tongue that spat out of its mouth.

"Shet!

"Bang"

When this monster appeared, Quill subconsciously pulled out the elemental firing gun and blasted it with one shot, but after the light that was enough to melt the steel shone, he was desperate to see that under the monster's pierced scales, the wound had begun to heal wildly.

"Whoa!"

Venom let out a painful and frantic hiss, and its claws swung upward, slashing at the neck of the frightened Quill in front of him, this claw bit and caught, Quill's 10 lives were dead, but this guy's luck was really good... The moment the claws landed on Quill's body, the flames of three heavy weapons came from behind, crossed Quill's body, smashed into the venom in front of him, and threw its body flying.

More than a dozen tall warriors in full armor rushed into the ruins with energy cannons in their hands, and the black-armored warrior in the lead shouted:

"Put down what you hold, that treasure belongs to Ronan the Great Accuser!"

Star-Lord, who escaped his life, glanced back, his eyes narrowed, and the dress of those soldiers was the armor of the notorious Kree Empire soldiers in this star field, which made Star-Lord feel a big headache, but the next moment, the knocked down venom rose from the ground, and Yang Tian let out a sharp hiss.

"Boom"

The sound of wild beasts running sounded all around, and the soldiers of the Kree Empire jerked their heads up, only to see a dozen or so black monsters lying on the rocks above the temple that were about the same as venom, but obviously one size smaller than it, all with hideous claws and huge bodies, almost like real weapons of slaughter.

"Whoa!"

Venom roared, and the next moment, the parasites it split out jumped down from the top of their heads, rushing into the group of unstoppable Kree Empire soldiers, killing and killing, Star-Lord took this opportunity to rush out of the temple with the cosmic spirit orb, and Venom brutally tore the bodies of the soldiers who stood in the way, smashed the walls, and rushed out, followed by the retreating Kree.

Three groups of people fled frantically in the acid rain storm of this abandoned planet, chasing, with the help of footsteps rocket boots, the rabbit-like Star-Lord ran so fast that even the venom running at full speed could not catch up with him, and could only watch as the bastard who escaped with the treasure rushed into the teleportation light of the Milan that was already suspended in the air, and under the roar of the engine, in the wild laughter of Star-Lord's escape from death, Milan turned into a red lightning bolt and completely disappeared into the dim airspace.

Venom, who had lost its prey, turned its head angrily and poured out its anger on the Kree soldiers behind him, but just as it and its descendants were slaughtering, a huge will suddenly appeared, causing Venom, which was immersed in the killing, to stop its movements in an instant, and with its children, lay on the ground, shivering.

"It's too noisy..."

A voice came from the acid rain, and the remaining Kree soldiers thought they were saved, but the next moment they ran out of the encirclement, a brilliant dark blue spear pierced through the rainstorm, piercing the body of one of them, and the next moment, the dark blue flames burst out in place, completely engulfing the remaining soldiers, only in an instant, their bodies, along with their weapons, were reduced to ashes in the flames.

Even the acid rain that was flying in the sky was evaporated and stopped for a moment in the burning of this scorching flame.

A figure walked slowly in the rain, and everywhere he went, the wet ground became dry, and all the water evaporated in an instant, he walked up to Venom, glanced at his pet, shook his head, and reached out to it.

"Come back... With you, I'm complete..."

"Gollum"

Venom's huge body quickly dried up at this moment, it returned into a flowing black fluid, and jumped into Cyber's arm, but in an instant, a familiar casual suit and a black trench coat appeared on his body, and in the moment of return, Venom also told Cyber everything that happened through the spirit link.

After a moment, he lowered his head and picked up Star-Lord's discarded communicator from the ground, and he glanced at it, his eyes squinting with blue flames, and a small smile on his lips.

"It's okay... It doesn't matter, as long as it does exist, it's fine. ”

Wow, squinting and smiling, they're all monsters!
