Chapter Fifty-Six: Chaotic Star Field

In order to hide people's eyes and ears, and in order to obtain information, the two did not go directly to the North Zone, but went to the "Chaos Star Field" located in the center of the Greenwich meteorite belt.

As the name suggests, there are millions of celestial bodies, large and small, in this small area. The large celestial bodies are all occupied by pirates and mercenaries, some of them are pirate lairs, and some are the forward bases of mercenaries who have penetrated into the North Sector. Small ships arrive at all the time, some from expeditions returning from the North Sector, some from cargo ships from the Southern Alpha system. There are also ships departing from here at any time, either to venture to the North Zone or to return to the Southern Alpha System. It's a mixed bag, but everything is in order. Like the Confusing Star, the Chaos Star Domain has its own laws and regulations, and even outlaws don't dare to cause trouble everywhere.

After letting the "Shadow" land on a meteorite and activate the "magic cloak", Lin Feng and Yang Yi took a small flying machine to the neighboring "7th star".

It is a large celestial body with a diameter of hundreds of kilometers and a mass large enough to form a spherical shape by its own gravity.

In the Chaos Field, the nine largest objects are named numerically in order of size, and the "7th star" is the seventh largest object in the Chaos Field.

Along the way, Lin Feng briefly introduced the history of the Chaos Star Domain to Yang Yi.

Originally, before the First Greenwich War, this was not a star field, but a planet, the largest planet in the Greenwich meteorite belt that had been discovered at the time, about the size of the Federation Star in the home system. During the First Greenwich War, the planet was first occupied by the Silicon Alliance, which served as a springboard for the Silicon Alliance's invasion of the Southern Alpha Galaxy, and then by the Galactic Alliance. In the final battle, the two sides used the most advanced weapons of the time in order to fight for control of the planet. As a result, neither side was able to achieve its goal. After several devastating blows in a row, the planet was completely destroyed.

Although the planet is gone, the strategic value of this place has not diminished.

In the next four Greenwich Wars, the Silicon Alliance first occupied the Chaos Star Field, used it as a base to sweep the entire Greenwich meteorite belt, and then marched into the Southern Alpha System. After the end of the Fifth Greenwich War, the Human Federation withdrew its troops from the Greenwich Meteorite Belt due to the Armistice Treaty. In order to strengthen the control of the Greenwich meteorite belt, the three major theaters took the lead in pressuring the federal authorities to make the Chaos Star Field a federal district. Subsequently, the nine military regions stepped forward to let those mercenary groups that had made significant contributions to the Federation during the war be stationed in the Chaos Star Domain, and the nine main mercenary groups formed a management committee to jointly maintain and manage the order of the Chaos Star Field.

With the acquiescence of the federal authorities and the support of the military, these nine mercenary groups grew rapidly.

It's just that in the past thousand years, these nine mercenary groups have also undergone a lot of changes. Most obviously, each of the nine mercenary groups has a dominant family. In other words, it is no longer the Nine Mercenary Groups that control the Chaos Star Field, but the Nine Great Families.

"Ruling the 7th star is the Susa family, whose predecessor was the 'Children of Blood' mercenary group formed by the Saxons. It was only a few hundred years ago that Auburn Susa, the founder of the Susa family, eliminated all dissidents after taking the throne of the Legion Commander, and seized control of the mercenary group and the 7th star. ”

"So, the Susa family is working for the second war zone?"

Lin Feng shook his head and said, "The second war zone has never admitted the matter of Susa's seizure of power, and Susa is also worried about it. On the surface, the Susa family still obeys the dispatch command of the second war zone, but in fact, the Susa family has been seeking another way out. ”

"What do you mean......"

"We didn't win over the Susa family, and it was not convenient for us to meddle in the affairs of the 7th star, but the Susa family had no reason to set up a strong enemy." Lin Feng glanced at Yang Yi and said, "This is also the reason why we came to the 7th star." As long as we don't cause trouble, the Susa family will not embarrass us. ”

Yang Yi nodded, indicating that he understood what Lin Feng meant.

After a short time, the two arrived at the spaceport of the 7th star.

Star 7 is just a large celestial body, much smaller than the Confusing, and the spaceport is much smaller, with a maximum of dozens of spaceships docked.

Contrary to Yang Yi's imagination, there is day and night, and the light is provided by an artificial satellite that orbits the celestial body and is driven by an original energy converter. There is also an artificial gravitational field and an artificial atmosphere on the celestial body, and the gravitational intensity is one G, but the thickness of the atmosphere is less than one kilometer.

After completing the immigration procedures at the spaceport and paying a deposit, the two rented a flying car.

Because there are nine large celestial bodies in the Chaos Star Field, and there are other options besides the 7th star, the constraints on outsiders are not as severe as those of the Confusing. The biggest cost of violating local regulations is the loss of security deposits, but most of the people who come here are outlaws, and no one wants to take the initiative to provoke right and wrong.

"Where are we going now?"

"The place with the most intelligence."

Yang Yi was very curious about Lin Feng's answer.

"The bar, the place where the three religions and the nine streams gather. If a mercenary group wants to venture into the North End and is short of manpower, they will go to the bar to recruit people. ”

"You're familiar with this place."

"The Special Detective Brigade has relevant teaching courses, and if you use snacks, you will know where to go to get information." Lin Feng glanced at Yang Yi and said, "If we are lucky and meet a mercenary group that is preparing to go to the Northern District to recruit people, we can go to the Northern District as mercenaries." ”

"Is this necessary?"

"It's necessary." Lin Feng gritted his teeth and said, "Actually, I haven't been to the North District before, so I don't know much about the situation over there. ”

Yang Yi was slightly stunned and said, "So, you didn't plan at all?" ”

"Of course there is a plan, we will infiltrate a certain mercenary group as male and female thieves, and go to the North District with others, and then we will act when the opportunity comes."

"That's the plan?"

"What, aren't you satisfied?"

Yang Yi was speechless, but he had come to this point, so he couldn't go back.

Not long after, with the help of the flying car's navigation system, the two arrived at the "Lady Luck" bar. This is the largest bar on the 7th star and the seat of the Mercenary Guild.

Although the "Children of Blood" mercenary group is still there, after the Susa family took power, the "Children of Blood" mercenary group gradually faded out of peripheral operations and transformed into an intermediary agency. To put it simply, the current "Children of Blood" mercenary group is just an empty shell, mainly operating the 7th star. Other mercenary groups stationed in the 7th star, and using the 7th star as a base to explore the North District, have to pay a certain percentage to the "Children of Blood". In contrast, the "Children of Blood" guarantee the rights and interests of these mercenary groups at the 7th star, providing various conveniences. For example, the "Lady Luck" bar openly recruits people to purchase weapons and equipment and combat materials for expeditions at low prices.

In fact, most of the mercenary groups stationed in the 7th star are some smaller mercenary groups.

In the Chaos Star Field, in addition to the old mercenary groups such as the "Children of Blood", which have a fixed station, some large mercenary groups also develop abandoned celestial bodies on their own and establish their own forward bases. Only those mercenary groups that have not yet become a climate and are not strong enough capital need to be sent to the fence.

Although the strength of the small mercenary group is limited, and they generally do not go deep into the northern area, and mainly operate in the marginal areas, and may not be able to encounter celestial bodies with level 10 silicon beasts, the small mercenary group lacks manpower, and if there is a major discovery, they will temporarily recruit personnel to improve the chances of success.

Besides, large mercenary groups have high requirements for recruiters and will not recruit new people casually.

As Lin Feng said, the "Lady Luck" bar is a place where the three religions and nine streams gather, and a place to hide dirt and dirt. Although it was still daytime, there were hundreds of people in the bar, almost all of them fierce-faced, arrogant-looking, and over-dressed guys, none of whom were easy to get along with.

Yang Yi and Lin Feng are the same, the two of them are the ones who go to confuse the gods.

They each ordered a glass of spirits, and the two sat down in the corner.

In less than an hour, with the assistance of Aaron, the two of them heard a lot of news, such as someone found the remnants of the Fifth Greenwich War in the North District, the spaceship of a certain mercenary group was missing, and a mysterious person bought a rare silicon beast at a high price, but there was no information that Yang Yi and Lin Feng wanted.

Someone posted a recruitment, but it was a bodyguard who returned to the Southern Alpha system with the merchant ship.

Waiting until midnight yielded nothing.

It seems that there is nothing to hope for today. Seeing Lin Feng's eyes, Yang Yi nodded slightly. Although the bar is open 24 hours a day, it is already the second half of the night, and mercenary groups generally do not recruit people at this time, so maybe tomorrow will have a little better luck.

It was at this time that the three of them walked into the bar, led by a strong man with a long scar on his face, who looked like a mercenary who often ventured to the North End. The man and woman in the back are not good, not only have fierce faces, but also exude a strong murderous aura in their flickering eyes.

When the three of them entered, they were all surrounded by people at the door of the bar.

"It's the 'Warriors' mercenary group. Am I right? He's Captain Jackson, is he really Captain Jackson? ”

"And the Ghost Eyes Stevenson and the Blade Clare couple, didn't they go into hiding ten years ago? Why are you with Jackson now, have you joined the 'Warriors' mercenary group? ”

"Looking at this battle, it must be going to the North District again."

"Forget it, let's not join in the fun. If you don't have real skills, even if you join the 'Warriors' mercenary group, you don't want to enjoy the commission alive. ”

"Yes, although the pay is very high, every mission is dangerous."

……

In the midst of the discussion, some people took the initiative to step back, while others surrounded them.

Scarface ignored the people who had gathered around him, and walked straight towards the wall where the recruitment information was posted, and the two men who were with him pushed away a few dead-faced guys.

Yang Yi and Lin Feng glanced at each other and followed the crowd over.

When the three of them came in, Yang Yi and Lin Feng saw that they all had Origin Energy Converters, and Scarface's combat power was definitely above that of the eighth-level soldiers, one of the couple was a sixth-level soldier and the other was a fifth-level soldier, and their strength was not bad, even in a large mercenary group, they were the backbone.
