。 The Third Realm, Mosu Creek......

Sea of Blazing Clouds,.

In the vast starry sky, endless nebulae tumble and flow, silent but everywhere. The light of the stars shines through, refracting a bleeding hue in the middle of them. That's why it's called the Sea of Blazing Clouds. The nebula is so vast that it covers almost the entire starry sky. Day after day, year after year, it flows, slowly, but never stops. Every bit of change seems to have gone through countless years of precipitation. It gives people a feeling of vicissitudes.

At this moment, in the nebula, a huge mothership sailed slowly, the hull of the ship was like an island, the tail of the wide disc was spewing out thousands of wakes, and the superstructure was slowly rotating. As many as tens of thousands of collection mouths, a large number of cosmic elements were inhaled, and red clouds of smoke erupted from the rejection mouths, and the indescribable momentum was amazing.

This is exactly the mothership of the cosmic mercenaries.

It's been three days since the mission began, and they've already completed their assembly and begun to officially step into the mission realm. In the conference room of the mothership before, the dead old man had already arranged the mission details. He didn't specify everyone's mission, but he did specify one thing, that is, as the only Heck who had ever entered the ruins, he had to be the first to enter the ruins, and at the same time give everyone his experience and insights.

There is no doubt that this is not a good thing for Heck. Because it's tantamount to taking him in the lead. The danger is not small. But at the same time, it is not a bad thing, it is equivalent to handing over some of the command to him, so that he can justifiably dominate his peers.

Don't think that if the cosmic mercenary organization is loose, there will be no discipline. In fact, I have been able to look at the universe for so many years. How can you do it by messing around? It's just that the discipline of cosmic mercenaries is relatively special, and it can only be reflected in certain times.

And now, apparently, this is the time.

Heck, who has been given command, can actually lead a squad of three fighters of the same level. This is already a frightening amount of force. You must know that the Dao of Lu counts the four planetary levels of Heck, and this force is enough to wipe out any civilization in the Fourth Realm. Even the stellar star is not easily provoked. Not to mention that they also have their own companions and subordinates. The lowest is also the level of comet-star.

The list of teams has already been decided, and in addition to Heck and Silkna, the other two planetary stars are the 'Kid' and 'Rainbow' who greeted Heck at the airport before. Together with their companions, there were more than twenty of them.

In addition to Heck's team, the other team has two planetary stars. Exploration as a second route. Its strength should not be underestimated. Although the number of planetary stars is less than that of Heck's team, there are two more meteor stars. The total number of people has reached 100.

Six planetary stars, three meteorite stars, plus nearly a hundred comet-level stars. This amount of force is simply terrifying. It's the biggest stroke of the cosmic mercenary in recent years. It shows how much attention the above attaches to this mission. And the strongest strength, of course, is the dead old man who is one of the Seven Halls of Broken Light.

Just appearing. It is enough to deter the 'king' of the third realm.

The mothership sailed silently, as if it were slowing down. Behind a window somewhere on the huge ship island. The blood pupil was withdrawing his gaze from the outside. But there is still the afterglow of blazing clouds in my heart.

"Spectacular, isn't it?" A voice came from behind him. None other than Heck.

I saw him lazily leaning on the largest sofa in the room, almost sinking his body in. Holding a glass of wine in his hand and shaking slightly. But his eyes were lowered, as if he were asleep.

"How did it feel when you first came to the Third World Realm?"

"............" Blood Pupil was silent before whispering after a while. It's no different from the Seventh Realm. ”

"Hah, that's what I said at the time." Heck smiled dumbly, and the juice in his glass rippled. …,

"Oh?"

"That's what it was." Heck grinned and took a sip of the juice before speaking to the Blood Pupil. "This universe seems to change all the time, but the essence is the same. I've seen too much of it. There is no interest in giving it more compliments. I just didn't expect you to have such an opinion. ”

"What? Feeling tired of having changed so much lately? ”

"Nope." Blood Pupil shook her head and turned her head to look out the window at the nebula again. There was silence for a moment before he spoke. "It's just, it's a little uneasy."

"Just uneasy?" Heck narrowed his eyes, a hint of cunning in his gaze. "Again, something else. For example...... Expect. ”

"Master Heck." Blood Pupil frowned. Just as he was about to speak, he saw that Heck had already turned his head and waved his hand lazily.

"Okay, don't hide it. I know you, the whole universe. I'm afraid there is no one more suitable for this mission than you. For others, this mission may be a crisis or punishment, but for you, I am afraid it is an opportunity. ”

With that, Heck took a breath. A smile on his face. "Sometimes I wonder if the old guys up there know something. That's why I'm giving you such a task. Obviously trying to show you the way? ”

"............" Blood Pupil thought for a moment and shook her head slightly. Maybe...... is a trap. ”

"It's good if you think so." Heck smiled slightly, tilted his head, and lazily threw himself onto the back of the couch. "Those old guys aren't good. They have given you great support from the beginning, but they have never given you a mandatory task. There's a lot to scrutinize here. You don't think there's a free lunch. ”

"Anyone who thinks like this should have died a long time ago." The blood pupil replied indifferently.

"That's right. Only an idiot would think like that. So I suspect they know something. And this mission is to prove it, and second, it is to hope to use your identity. Heck touched his nose and his face grew gloomy. I've personally entered the ruins. It's fair to say that no one knows the dangers inside better than I do. Don't look at the amount of power we have gathered now. But if you really want to explore that ruin, it's not even enough. ”

"Then there may be only one, and that is you."

"Blood Pupil, only you can take us to open that ruin. And the current manpower is actually your help, or a constraint. ”

Speaking of this, a cold light suddenly flashed in Heck's eyes. The breath of the whole body suddenly turned cold,. "So...... There will be two squads, those two guys. ”

"Those two guys?" The blood pupil was stunned. Then I understood. "You mean, squad two?"

"Hmm." Heck nodded. His gaze lingered on the chandelier in the room for a moment. Only then did he whisper. "They're generals."

Will? The blood pupil's eyes flashed, and the Nine Kings of the Shattered Star General?

But wasn't Heck too? Why would you show such an expression? After thinking about it again, the blood pupil's face changed. Could it be ......

"They are will. And it's a higher ranking than me. Heck didn't play dumb riddles with him, and said slowly in a deep voice. You've known me for a long time, and you should know that our Nine Kings of Shattered Star are not monolithic, and there are conflicts in them. It's like the last time you killed Kers, the weakest and least popular among us. ”

"Yes." Blood Pupil nodded. "I've also heard that you're the worst of them all."

"Huh." Heck smiled. He shook his head repeatedly. "No, I just like revenge. After a long time, some people will be jealous of me. Say I'm not easy to mess with or something. But ......"

Heck paused slightly, and his face dropped. "Those two guys are not like me. They are a real danger. Even I had to be careful. Because they are black and white. ”…,

"Black and white?"

"Well, the Nine Kings of the Shattered Star General, the number one one, black and white."

"............" Although the blood pupil's expression did not change, he gasped in his heart.

Number one?

Today, Blood Pupil has become more and more aware of the strength structure of mercenaries. The more I realized how powerful this ranking is. Although they are both planetary-level, there is also a big gap between planetary levels. It's like the weakest Kers, who can even challenge himself under the suppression of the environment. However, this does not mean that the Blood Pupil can challenge other planetary levels. In fact, with his current strength, unless he also entered the planetary level, he could only flee in the face of an overlord like the Nine Kings of Shattered Stars, and there was no chance of victory.

What's more, these two people are actually ranked first? Wait a minute...... Two?

"For a long time, people thought that the Nine Kings of Shattered Stars would be nine people." It seemed to know what the blood pupil was thinking, Heck explained softly. "But in reality, only people who really know us know the Tao, not nine, but ten. It's because black and white, which ranks first, is actually two in one. ”

"They are twin brothers. Never separated from birth. So after becoming a cosmic mercenary, he also uses the same nickname. At first, his reputation was not obvious, but eighty years ago, the two of them suddenly killed 'Water Mist', who was the number one among the Nine Kings generals at the time, thus taking his place. ”

"Their history of fighting is very small, and they barely hear of the two men's outstanding records other than that kill. But no one dared to despise them. It's that they are the only warriors in the last thousand years who have been recognized by the headquarters and directly granted the status of enforcers just after killing the superior person. ”

Enforcers!? The pupils of the blood pupil contracted suddenly. My heart twitched violently. He had heard of the name, which was the most dangerous position among the mercenaries in the universe, and was responsible for the purging of mercenaries. To be able to hold such a position, in addition to being strong enough to suppress fighters of the same level, what is more important is that he is ruthless and ruthless.

Black and white can have such an identity, doesn't it mean that their strength is already above that of other planetary stars? It's no wonder Heck was so jealous.

Looking at the flickering gaze of the blood pupils, Heck showed a wry smile again. "Originally, no matter how powerful they are, they shouldn't have anything to do with you. But it's different now...... You have to be careful. They're going to get their hands on you. ”

"For what?" Blood Pupil was startled. How did you provoke such a powerful enemy for no reason? Is Nima good without cheating? It is said that the peaceful 21st century Conan will end!!

"Because ......," Heck sighed, a hint of apology. You killed Kers. (To be continued)
