Section 66 Revenge Mission
Blood Pupil stayed in the gravity chamber for a full month. When I came out again, my whole person changed. Although it is still indifferent, it has an extra taste of loneliness and coldness, like a piece of cold ice, exuding a thick cold air from the inside out. After more than a month of mending and training, he has begun to transform from a small hunter in the last days to a cosmic mercenary.
When he walked out of the training facility, the squire Jack was already waiting there. Seeing the blood pupil appear, he saluted respectfully, and then whispered.
"Your Excellency, Lord Hensel has been waiting for you for a long time."
"I know it." The blood pupil nodded indifferently, and then got into the speeding car next to him.
Back to the luxurious room where the shuttle was struck. Hensel was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with his back to him. Hearing the footsteps of the blood pupil, he didn't look back.
"My lord, I'm here." The blood pupil saluted and stood still.
"Hmm." Hensel was still looking out the window, his voice a little erratic. "I heard you've been training hard all this time?"
"It's all about living, my lord."
"That's right. It seems that you understand the survival of cosmic mercenaries better than most. It's a pity that there are still many people who don't understand. They thought that the cosmic mercenary was such a wonderful profession, and they desperately squeezed in here from all corners of the universe. But they didn't know that from the moment they stepped here, they had already entered a road of no return. ”
Speaking of this, Hensel, who has always given the image of a tough guy with blood eyes, suddenly sighed, and his voice fell silent.
"Zero-sum constant...... Dead ......"
"Huh?" Blood Pupil was stunned for a moment, and finally showed a surprised gaze. "What did you say, sir?"
"You heard me right, and I didn't say it wrong." Hensel still had his back to him. But the blood pupil could notice the subtle trembling of his fingers.
"While you're training, they came out on a mission. The task was not very difficult, but during the execution a little mistake occurred, and an unexpected enemy appeared. Zero and Heng died on the spot. The task failed. Hensel touched his bald head and cursed suddenly.
"Damn, I told Zero and Heng to put a little more effort into training, but these two guys just won't listen. Could it be that genetically enhanced drugs and abilities can solve all problems? If that's the case, why do the cosmic mercenaries buy so many Salen every year? ”
Note: Salen, a shroud in the realm of this world. Apocryphal, here is actually the method used by the cosmic mercenaries to deal with the war dead, and does not refer specifically to a specific object.
"Your Excellency......" Blood Pupil hesitated for a moment and whispered. Please mourn. ”
"Hmph." Hensel snorted coldly. He waved his hand. "There's no need. I've seen too much of this kind of life and death. I just think it's a pity. Zero and Constant has been with me for almost three years. In just a few months, they will be able to accept the assessment assignment. But at this time......"
"Damn Lembeck, I'm not going to let him go!"
"Lembek?"
"A cosmic mercenary. He is also a meteorite warrior. But he had a reputation for being insidious. Originally, the task of Zero and Heng was not difficult this time, but one of his vassals also accepted this task. So he secretly resorted to the trick. Temporarily joined his vassals on the side of the enemy. Raided Zero and Heng during the battle. Otherwise, how could Zero and Constant not even be able to escape? At this point, Hensel could no longer hold back the anger in his heart! Roar loudly......
"Damn it! If it weren't for this damn mercenary rule, I'd be going to kill him right now! You wait, when I meet him on the battlefield, I will definitely break him to pieces!! ”
With a bang, a terrifying momentum suddenly swept through the room. All the furnishings were shattered in an instant. The blood pupils were caught off guard, and they retreated several steps in a row, barely standing still. The combat suit on his body made a clear popping sound, and countless small scars appeared.
Is this the strength of the cosmic mercenary?
Blood Pupil's eyes widened. He never dreamed that humans could reach such terrible levels. Unexpectedly, the momentum alone caused terrible physical damage. If Hensel did become an enemy, Blood Pupil couldn't imagine what a horrible scene it would be.
Fortunately, Hensel was also aware of his gaffe. With a cold snort, he suppressed his momentum. The room fell silent. There was only the sound of heavy breathing of the two men.
And so it went on for a while. Hensel let out a low curse and punched the floor-to-ceiling window opposite. The floor-to-ceiling windows, which could withstand cosmic rays, suddenly emitted an overwhelming screeching sound, and large cracks like spiderwebs appeared. ,
"Blood Pupil!"
"I'm here, sir." The blood pupil suppressed the shock in his heart and replied in a low voice.
"Go and take on the task of Zero and Constant. Get it done! ”
"Yes, sir."
"It's not a difficult task, but you'll run into a vassal of Lembeck. You know what to do. ”
"They won't come back. My lord. The blood pupil replied in the affirmative, and a piercing cold light flashed in his eyes.
"Good." Hensel nodded in satisfaction. Finally turned around and took a serious look at the blood pupil. "I shouldn't have asked you to accept the assignment so quickly. But you are the one recommended by Zero and Constant. For your sake, their last mission failed. That's why I took on this task. I hope you won't let me down. In addition, this quest is a competitive quest and there is a possibility that other vassals may appear. But because of the mercenary rules, I can't make a move. You...... Be prepared to ......"
Blood Pupils fell silent, and it was a long moment before he raised his head and met Hensel's gaze.
"My lord, if other cosmic mercenaries make a move......"
"It can't be!" Hensel replied categorically. "If they make a move, I will let them know what regret is!"
"If that's the case, I'm fine."
"Go ahead. The quest details can be asked to ask Jack to take you to get them. But you have to remember ......" Hensel took a deep breath. Turned his head and never looked at the blood pupil again.
"Protect yourself. Come back alive. ”
"............" Blood Pupil was silent for a moment, then saluted and walked out of the room.
It took seven hours to prepare. The Blood Pupil then stepped on Hensel's shuttle. Travel to the planet at high speed...... Planet MS-1.
This is a very small planet in the Seventh Realm. The environment is harsh. The quest was issued by a local lord. The grade is F. There was a rebellion in his domain. Several high-ranking hunters in armor occupy a gathering point and quickly absorb the foreign population. In a short period of time, it has grown into a dangerous force. In order to maintain his rule, the lord named Kekel had to enlist the help of the cosmic mercenaries.
The content of the mission is simple, kill or drive out the leader of the rebels.
On the shuttle, the blood pupil briefly checked the information of this lord. He was found to be a very brutal fellow. Unlike most lords of the Seventh Civilization. He didn't care about the lives of his people, and he didn't want to upgrade to a higher civilization. He poured all the resources he acquired into his own luxury. And he often takes pleasure in killing. His mansion is home to dozens of large mutant beasts. His favorite pastime is to throw his 'enemies' into the gladiatorial arena and watch them fight mutants to the death. Be satisfied with blood and screams.
Because of his post-apocalyptic background, Blood Hitomi has no good impression of this lord. If he was on planet X35, he wouldn't even mind killing him easily. But he's no longer an ordinary person anymore. As a mercenary vassal, he has his own rules to follow. The rule of mercenaries is to only ask about the task, not whether it is right or wrong.
Justice or not, it is not within the scope of the cosmic mercenary that should be considered.
The shuttle sailed quickly through the universe and soon entered a state of transition. After a period of malignment, the Blood Pupil already knew how to deal with these situations. He expertly fastened himself to the seat and put on a special helmet. A feeling of dizziness hits. He suddenly felt a jolt under his feet, and everything slowed down.
The cosmic mercenary's shuttle is a product of the Fifth Civilization. High technology content. However, even this does not solve the problem of distortion in the transition process. So in order to reduce the damage of the members. In the process, everyone is forced into hibernation. The central brain takes over the control of the shuttle.
In the intense feeling of vertigo, the blood pupil quickly went into hibernation. By the time he opened his eyes again, a striking mark had already appeared on the star map in front of him.
Planet MS-1. A planet with scarce water and near-barrenness.
It's coming......
From the universe, the planet's color is earthy yellow. Deserts occupy most of the area. Although there are quite a few humans living on it. But the main inhabitants are the lizardmen. A highly intelligent creature that is half-human, half-lizard. Through the star map, the blood pupil quickly found the target location, and then pressed the control panel.
"Shhh The hatch opened, and the squire Jack walked in. "Your Excellency. Do you have a command? ”
"How much time do you have left to get to the target?"
"Thirty-seven minutes. My lord. Are you planning to land straight or airdrop in? ”
"Let's airdrop it." Blood Pupil didn't want to answer.
His answer made Jack slightly stunned. You must know that the so-called airdrop entry of Lu Dao is the kind of assault pod that the blood pupil saw last time. The physical fitness of the user is extremely demanding. Ordinary people don't want to use it, even if they sit on it, they will be flattened by overload. Ordinary vassals do not choose this model, and he only asks routinely. Unexpectedly, the blood pupil chose this method in one bite.
"Your Excellency...... Maybe...... Do you need to think again? After thinking about it, Jack finally decided to remind the blood pupil. Although it is rude to doubt the strength of the master. But he wanted to keep the blood pupil safe.
That assault capsule is too dangerous. It's a suicide prop. Jack alone knew that no less than thirty mercenary vassals had died in such vehicles. They were no longer human when they were pulled out.
But to disappoint him, the blood pupil didn't seem to realize that there was something wrong with his choice, and still said stubbornly.
"No need. Just choose airdrops. You go and call someone to prepare the assault capsule. Thirty minutes later, I'm going to be on the launch track. ”
"Yes, sir!" Jack replied with a chest held up.
