Section 865 The City of Poison

The rest of the journey is a bit boring, but it is just a matter of plundering one by one according to the mission objectives. By the time everything was finished, more than half a month had passed.

Loaded with loot, the shuttle began to return to Van Xelt.

The month-long battle had already exhausted the crowd. Everyone wants to return to Van Queselt as soon as possible and have a good rest. There is a perfect ecological circulation system on the shuttle, and of course it is not a problem to take a bath or something, the problem is the lack of entertainment. And the indulgence after pressure is exactly what the cosmic mercenary can't lack.

"Didi."

Just as the crowd began to return, the communicator in the bridge rang out. One of the mercenaries replied for a moment, and then a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"Your Highness." He stood up and reported to Brut. "His Highness Bass has sent instructions asking us not to return, but to go directly to the next coordinate point to deliver the goods."

"Oh?" Brut was sitting in the captain's seat, sipping rum. Rolled his eyes when he heard the news. "Hell, is it another sequential mission? Can't let us rest for a few days? ”

"yes, yes. The recent quest has been too boring and not a bit challenging. I miss my Milita too. "A mercenary is not far away." Her snow-white skin, curved horns, and adorable tail. All fascinate me. ”

", Serdor, you're such a beast that you can even do it to a girl like that. And it's an alien. ”

"That is, Seldo is a primitive reptile with a head filled with white liquid, and can't he have any hobbies other than mating and fighting? You can accept any kind of race, is it a stone with strips that you will also be interested in? ”

Serdo's words immediately attracted the mercenaries to laugh and scold in unison, and he was not angry, still squinting his eyes and grinning. "A stone with a slit in it, that's a good idea, try it next time."

"You're a bastard!!"

The mercenaries burst out laughing, in the middle of the battle. Vulgar jokes are easier to put them at ease. In fact, which mercenary who can get here is not killed by the mountain of corpses and the sea of blood? Serdor's hobby is just the simplest of them, and there are some mercenaries who like drugs and bloody meals. What's that?

Brut also squinted and smiled, he was familiar with the atmosphere, as if he had returned home.

We are mercenaries, wanderers of the universe. Wherever we go, our home is our home.

We are mercenaries, the spokesmen of death, and wherever we go, there is war.

Don't reason with us, don't talk to us about justice.

We are mercenaries.

Money is the truth.

Strength is justice.

Dance in the midst of war. Laugh in death.

Because we are mercenaries.

In the lively atmosphere, Brut played with his wine glass, and then suddenly asked. "His Highness Bass's order, does it mention who we are going to deliver to?"

"There was no accurate information, only the location and the signal of the other party were mentioned." The mercenary in charge of communications replied.

"Forget it, let's hurry over." Brut rubbed his eyebrows. "Deliver early, finish early, it seems that our lads can't help but want to enjoy the enthusiasm of Van Keselt. Wine and girls, blood and feasts. are waiting for us. ”

"Roar ......" A wolf howl sounded from the bridge.

The droplet-shaped shuttle reorients itself in the void, then disintegrates one by one. Fleeting......

A day later, they arrived at their target location.

A 'Void City' known as Diliku.

The so-called Void City can't be simply seen as a city. Rather, it should be seen as a space that has been shaped by artificiality. Most of them have transparent shields in the shape of a ball, which creates a suitable environment for the occupants. The volume of Void City is not uniform. The smallest ones are the size of a grain of rice, while the larger ones may resemble gas planets. In the Second Realm, volume is not the criterion for evaluating whether a Void City is important, location is.

Diliku clearly does not fall into the category of 'significant' cities. Because it is not in a good position. There are no resources nearby, no transportation arteries, and no heterogeneous space suitable for expansion. It's just an ordinary ball. Float in the icy void.

However, when the mercenaries arrived, they found that the city was actually quite good.

The main reason is that Diliku is not the usual form of energy civilization in the Second Realm, nor is it a high-rise forest that humans are familiar with. It's a city full of exotic civilizations. Beneath the blister-like shield is the countless seaweed-like veins of the city soaked in liquid, and then the 'chamber fruits' grow on these seaweeds.

The shape of the fruit is inconsistent, some resemble olives, others resemble tennis balls. From time to time, black mucus also drips.

"Looks like we need to move in liquids." Brut looked at the Diliku data that was being brushed through the light curtain. Then he said to the other mercenaries. "It's a toxic city that grows in a highly corrosive, transparent liquid. Boys below the planet, it's best to prepare your armor with corrosion-resistant armor and TAS antidote. Otherwise, if it is melted, don't blame me for not reminding you. ”

"Understood, Your Highness Brut!" The mercenaries replied with a bang. They are all veterans of mercenaries, and they are still prepared for this.

Soon, a heavily armed squad began to break away from the shuttle and quickly approached Diliku under the advance of the armor.

Brut thought about it, got up and walked out of the bridge.

He circled a few times in the shuttle, and soon came to a small room, and knocked on the door.

"Who?" The voice of the blood pupil came from the room, full of indifference.

"Me." Brut touched his nose, the blood pupil always felt something wrong with him these days, as if it was full of danger and oppression Yes, even if he was a stellar star, he didn't want to touch it.

But at this time, he couldn't avoid it, he had reached his destination, and he needed the help of the blood pupil.

The mercenary mission is sacred, and there is no reason for him to complete it alone without the blood pupil. That's disrespect for the blood pupil.

"We've arrived at our destination, would you like to go down and have a look together?"

Brut explained the command that Buzz had just sent with a few simple words, and then invited the blood pupil.

"Good!" The blood pupil replied very simply, quickly tidied up, and walked out of the room.

I haven't seen him for a few days, and his appearance is still so indifferent, but it doesn't feel so cold and blunt. Brut felt much better, so he and Blood Pupil stepped out of the shuttle and flew towards Diliku with their respective squads.

The blister-shaped Diliku enlarged before their eyes, becoming more and more beautiful......

Soon, they passed through the blister shield outside the city, and began to approach the center of the city under the guidance of the team sent out in advance.

There, on a seaweed-shaped pedestal of the city, a huge fruit grows. (To be continued......)
