Colonial Suit

The knife was small, delicately exquisite...

This small knife, which Jules constantly played with, appeared harmless on the surface, but everyone knew it was anything but simple. Just a few days ago, Jules had used this very knife to instantly kill dozens of people. The fleeting light that appeared in that instant was like the gaze of the Grim Reaper, making life terrifyingly fragile.

Now, this delicate little knife was flying towards Blood瞳.

But Blood瞳 didn't move.

It wasn't that he didn't want to, but he realized that Jules's target wasn't him, but the twins in his arms.

Jules was single-mindedly trying to take the twins' lives.

With Blood瞳's speed and ability, he was confident he could dodge this deadly knife. But he wasn't confident he could dodge it while carrying the twins. The agility of a Wild Beast was based on sacrificing defense and reducing weight. Carrying the twins, who were wearing armor, Blood瞳 was definitely no lighter than a similarly sized block of lead.

So... Blood瞳 made a very idiotic move.

He hugged the twins tightly and presented his back to the knife.

The violent movement startled the twins, and Little Bosie woke up. He immediately saw the knife flying towards Blood瞳's back, revealing a trace of anxiety. This was the first time Blood瞳 had ever seen him show anxiety.

"Blood瞳... Brother... Dodge it quickly..."

"Shut up. You need to be quiet," Blood瞳 said roughly. At the same time, he reached out and suddenly disassembled a piece of armor. In Little Bosie's shocked gaze, a piece of flesh separated from his body. This was the seed of the colony sub-body; with it, the twins could survive.

The seed was small, with many constantly wriggling tendrils. It looked particularly creepy.

"Eat it!"

"Uh?" Little Bosie's eyes widened. But he was too weak. He could only watch as Blood瞳 stuffed it into his mouth with an almost brutal gesture.

The seed had a strong bloody smell, which was Blood瞳's blood.

At the same time, the delicate knife finally hit Blood瞳.

A flash of light passed, and a small hole suddenly appeared in the Wild Beast's back. The super-alloy armor seemed to be of no use at all. At the same time, Blood瞳 felt a pain in his body, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.

"Blood瞳... Brother..." Little Bosie said weakly.

"Don't talk," Blood瞳 growled. He sounded like an injured beast roaring. Then he separated another seed from his body and stuffed it into Mia's mouth. After completing these actions, beads of sweat were already appearing on his forehead.

At the same time, his left rib suddenly exploded, and the delicate knife drilled out again, flying directly back into Jules's hand.

"Eh?" Jules looked at his hand in surprise, as if he had discovered something incredible.

But Blood瞳 couldn't care less. Separating two sub-body seeds in a row consumed a lot of his energy. Although these were all completed by the core, he had to endure the weakness of his body. Seeing that Jules was about to attack again, he didn't hesitate and rushed towards the Medusa transport ship not far away, holding the twins.

"Interesting." Jules suddenly smiled at Blood瞳's reckless actions. "It seems inconsistent with the information. Blood瞳... actually saves people?"

"But... if you think this will allow the twins to survive... that's ridiculous. Those who are destined to die will die no matter what..."

Before he finished speaking, Jules suddenly rubbed his fingers together, and a blur of light flashed between his fingertips. The delicate knife actually split into several. Then he threw them out.

The knives split again as they flew, and then split again. By the time they reached Blood瞳's back, there were an astonishing number of dozens. It was like a rain of knives, fiercely shooting towards Blood瞳.

Blood瞳's eyes flashed, and a trace of anger appeared in his eyes. But he didn't change his momentum at all, rushing towards the transport ship with the twins in his arms. A series of dense metallic sounds rang out, and the armor on the Wild Beast's back was already a mess.

Fortunately, perhaps because of the split, the attack power of the knives this time was obviously not as strong as before, and they could not completely penetrate the Wild Beast's armor. But even so, Blood瞳 felt a tightness in his chest, as if he had been hit by countless bullets. By the time he rushed to the Medusa, the Wild Beast's armor was finally broken, and patches of blood splattered from his back.

A passage happened to be open on the Medusa, and Blood瞳 didn't hesitate to send the twins in.

"Heal them!!" Blood瞳 said solemnly to the crew member who was receiving them. Then he closed the passage with a snap.

Turning around, he finally faced Jules in the distance.

The handsome and beautiful blue-haired youth was leisurely floating in the air with his arms crossed. Behind him was a figure with bumps all over his body.

It was Stuke, who had just been knocked into the ship by Blood瞳!!

Blood瞳's pupils contracted slightly, and a trace of surprise appeared in his eyes.

He knew exactly how heavy his fists and feet were. Even a trainee mercenary might not be able to withstand that set of combos. But this space pirate didn't die!?

While Blood瞳 was sizing up the other party, Jules was also looking at Blood瞳 with interest. Behind him, Stuke's eyes were full of hatred, but he didn't dare to move rashly.

Seeing Blood瞳 strike a defensive pose, Jules smiled slightly. "Looks like you've finished your last words?"

"..." Blood瞳 was silent, but his eyes gradually returned to their usual indifference.

Jules shrugged his shoulders amusingly. "I'm really curious about people like you. According to the information, you should be the ruthless type. But just now you told me that you also have feelings. This is really unexpected. Although... this doesn't change the result."

"They are my companions," Blood瞳 said after a moment of silence.

"I'm also your companion," Jules said amusingly.

"You're not."

"Just not now," Jules corrected. "Let me introduce myself. I'm Jules, and I'm a space pirate now!"

"You're a space pirate!?"

"What's so strange about that? Who says space pirates have to have their identities marked on their foreheads?" Jules said with a smile. "What's more, being a space pirate is just my part-time job. My main job is still a mercenary. Oh... or rather, a vassal."

"I should have killed you earlier," Blood瞳 replied coldly.

In fact, he had been suspicious of Jules since the second node. But he couldn't do anything because he didn't have any evidence. He didn't expect that because of this, Jules almost killed the twins. Now Blood瞳 deeply regretted it.

"That Norby star person is your channel for selling stolen goods, right?"

"That's right," Jules admitted generously. "I know you were there that day too. But that's not important. What's important is that I won. Although you were wary, you couldn't stop me."

"I'm not dead yet," Blood瞳 said coldly.

But when they heard his words, Jules and Stuke laughed at the same time. It was as if they were listening to the most incredible joke.

"Haha, what else do you want to do? Do you think you can defeat us in your current state?" Jules laughed wantonly. "Do you know why I let you send those two siblings back? Because it's meaningless. In my eyes, you're like an ant. No matter how hard you struggle, I'll crush you to death."

"I'm really curious how someone as stupid as you could be valued by Hensel and even kill Hector."

Hector!?

Hearing this name, Blood瞳's eyes widened suddenly, revealing an incredible look.

"You... you are..."

"I'm Jules," Jules repeated his name. "However, some people also call me... Queen of Hearts."

"Queen of Hearts!!" Blood瞳 was startled. He couldn't believe his ears. He still remembered the words that the priest Robbie reminded him of.

You have to pay attention to the Queen of Hearts. Her information is completely unknown. All that is known is that she is a woman.

"Impossible, the Queen of Hearts is a woman."

"Ha, it seems you've done some research on me. But... where did you see that I'm a man?" Jules's voice suddenly became slender and charming...

"Hahahaha, Lord Jules's disguise is famous. You stupid mercenary," Stuke laughed loudly from behind, not hiding his sarcasm.

The two laughed wantonly, as if they were playing with a rat that had fallen into a cat's claws. Perhaps in their eyes, Blood瞳 was no longer a threat.

In fact, Blood瞳's current appearance was indeed very embarrassing. The armor on the Wild Beast's back was almost completely shattered, and he had a fatal penetrating wound. If it were an ordinary person, they would have died from such injuries long ago.

But Blood瞳 was still standing upright, without any sign of pain.

He quietly looked at Jules, nodded after a long time. "I understand. Your disguise is indeed excellent. We traveled together for so long, and no one saw that you were a woman."

"But... I still won't give up."

"Then what can you do? Kill me? Or Stuke?" Jules looked at Blood瞳 teasingly. "I forgot to tell you that Stuke's ability is Steel Innards. He can turn himself into a metal alloy as solid as steel. It's been proven that your hand-to-hand combat is ineffective against him. As for me..."

Jules reached out and summoned dozens of knives that immediately floated around him, slowly rotating.

"My ability is telekinesis. You can try to break through my defense."

Jules announced his abilities without any scruples. This meant that Blood瞳 was already a dead man in his eyes.

But she was still disappointed. She didn't see any despair in Blood瞳's body. On the contrary, with her actions, Blood瞳 slowly exuded a murderous aura.

A murderous aura that could only be seen on beasts preparing to hunt.

Am I the prey?

Jules thought amusingly, not planning to play anymore. She was a little annoyed now. Blood瞳's performance had disappointed her greatly. This made her feel no joy in victory.

But in the next moment, her smile froze on her face.

Because Blood瞳 actually pounced towards her... and at the same time, came a shout she had never heard before.

"Colony Armor!!"
