Colonial Suit

In the vast universe, a prismatic attack shuttle was flying at high speed. It was jet black, its speed as fast as lightning, looking like a ghost. However, its kilometer-long hull was covered in potholes and long scratches, as if it had been through a fierce battle.

Inside the shuttle, all the crew members wore serious expressions, busily working with tension… and the position that should have been occupied by the master was empty.

At the same time, the shuttle's medical bay was in complete chaos.

“The master's blood pressure is rising, we need a sedative!”

“Damn it, what is this? What is in the master's body? Quickly activate microscopic treatment, we need to get these things out. Heavens, they're alive! They're scurrying around inside the master's body. Damn it, this won't defeat me, I will catch them!”

“Don't panic, watch the master's heartbeat. Good, keep the life support system working normally. Inject more nutrients.”

“The master's bones are severely damaged. We need to repair them as soon as possible. What? Not enough repair equipment? Did the master feed thousands of star coins to the dogs every year? You damned pigs. If I catch you embezzling, you're dead. Okay, I understand, let's do a temporary repair first. The master needs to stand up first.”

“Damn it, what's with this injury? Radiation reaction? The master had a radiation source implanted? Damn meteor-class battles, that's not something we should see. This left arm is useless, go get the number three spare arm, I think the master should replace an arm, fortunately, he doesn't care about this cosmetic change.”

“Good, most of the repairs are complete. We need to see if the master's immune system is still as strong as it used to be. Inject a cell stimulating agent.”

“The master's body is recovering. It seems he has survived another crisis. But this is only temporary, we need more complete and larger medical equipment. Ask the front, how long until T26 arrives?”

“Twenty hours? Damn it, do those pigs only know how to eat shit? The master's condition is very bad, we need to rest, not watch this damn shuttle crawl. Okay, I understand, this is our job, we will do it.”

“Inject a hibernation agent, I think our master needs a good sleep. Wake him up when we reach planet T26. This will help his injuries.”

In the medical bay, a group of people were busy around a treatment nest. Through the transparent shell of the treatment nest, one could see a naked middle-aged man lying inside. He was strong, but his body was covered with terrible wounds. Especially his left arm, which was completely severed and replaced with a mechanical arm. Immersed in nutrient fluid, his wounds emitted hairy blood threads, wriggling like living things.

At this moment, his eyes were closed, and he had entered a state of hibernation. But even so, his eyebrows were still tightly furrowed, as if he was experiencing some kind of pain. His strong body twitched from time to time.

His name was Crowley, a meteor-class star pirate warrior, who had just experienced a fierce battle and was heading to planet T26.

He needed treatment, but he did not know that during this time, the star pirate forces on planet T26 were suffering a catastrophic blow.

This disaster was the prelude to welcoming him…

Planet T26… Star pirate spaceport…

At this moment, a fierce battle was taking place here. The two sides in the battle were the stationed star pirates and Seva's elite guards. From the ground to the sky, warriors were fighting everywhere. Dense ballistic trajectories splashed dazzling sparks on each other's armor. The contrails of the armor left clear trails in the air. From time to time, someone was hit by a hail of bullets and fell from the sky with screams.

Bloodshot and Seva stood quietly on the dock, coldly watching the battle. At Bloodshot's feet, the Nether Leopard vigilantly watched its surroundings, occasionally letting out low growls from deep in its throat.

The Gemini siblings had already joined the battle. For them, killing was a feast, and blood was a delicacy. Amidst the hail of bullets, the two siblings laughed happily, killing one star pirate after another. In just a few minutes, the number of star pirates killed by them reached double digits.

This was a battle of unequal strength, without any suspense. In fact, their destruction was doomed from the moment the star pirates failed to attack the mercenary spaceport. The two mercenary-class warriors stationed here by the star pirates were killed by the Gemini, and they lacked a strong figure to make a final decision. They simply could not face the crazy attacks of Bloodshot and the other three.

The battle in the sky ended quickly. When the last star pirate was shot down by Mia with a machine gun, the entire spaceport became quiet. The remaining star pirates laid down their weapons in the eyes of the guards and chose to surrender.

“Quickly clean up the battlefield, I want it back to its original state within five hours.” Seva shouted loudly to the guards. Immediately, the entire battlefield became busy. Service personnel who had been waiting for a long time ran into the spaceport, dragging away the corpses one by one. Large cleaning machines also entered, spraying disinfectant liquid.

Even more exaggerated was that even the maintenance personnel were all present. They wore flying equipment, climbing up and down like ants, quickly restoring the damaged spaceport facilities. In the end, they even sprayed paint on them, making them look the same as before the battle.

Little Boshy watched the group of people busy with boredom, and opened his mouth to yawn.

“It's so boring, maybe we should go to the star pirates' warehouse to see, it is said that they have collected a lot of good things.”

“These all need to be handed over to the branch. If we can still complete the task alive.” Seva replied with a straight face. Although she had requested Bloodshot to participate in this mission, she still couldn't smile at the Gemini siblings who had once tried to kill her.

“Handed over to the branch?” Little Boshy rolled her eyes and suddenly tugged at her sister Mia's skirt. “Sister, in order to ensure that these supplies will be truthfully handed over, let's go check it out?”

“Okay.” How could Mia not understand Little Boshy's meaning? She immediately clapped her hands to express her approval. Then she threw away the huge machine gun in her hand and walked away with Little Boshy, hopping and skipping.

The heavy machine gun slid in an arc, knocking down several guards behind her who were trying to catch it.

“You…” Seva didn't expect the Gemini siblings to leave as soon as they said, not giving her any face at all, and couldn't help but feel a little angry.

In fact, just looking at the Gemini's performance, who wouldn't know that they were planning to embezzle? However, this was also very normal among mercenaries, as long as it wasn't too excessive. Everyone would turn a blind eye. What the branch valued was the power and benefits brought by the mercenaries, not these supplies.

On the other hand, Bloodshot seemed to not see it from beginning to end, just standing quietly, watching the service personnel busy. At his feet, the Nether Leopard seemed to realize that the battle was over, and was lazily lying there, opening its mouth to yawn greatly.

Seva knew that Bloodshot was very indulgent towards the Gemini, but she still said with a bit of sourness. “Mr. Bloodshot, you really don't care about them at all.”

“They are just my partners, not subordinates. Why should I care?” Bloodshot replied indifferently. Then he squatted down and stroked the Nether Leopard's smooth fur with his hand. The Nether Leopard closed its eyes comfortably, making a whimper similar to a child from its nostrils.

Seva looked at all this with envy. In fact, she had long been interested in this Nether Leopard. Ever since Bloodshot brought it off the ship, Seva had been attracted by the Nether Leopard's lithe figure and fierce beastly aura. This was a true beast, but if it could be taken as a pet, it would surely cause any girl to scream.

However, regrettably, this Nether Leopard seemed to only show affection to Bloodshot, and others… even including the Gemini siblings were difficult to approach. The Nether Leopard's vigilance was very high, and its aggressiveness was astonishing. This made Seva only dare to watch with envy, but did not dare to try to approach it easily.

She didn't want to be suddenly attacked by this Nether Leopard. You should know that the Nether Leopard has a reputation, and such a cub's attack power is comparable to a mercenary's vassal.

She watched enviously as the Nether Leopard was as docile as a cat in Bloodshot's hands, and pursed her lips. “The cleanup work here is about to end. Then what are we going to do?”

“You know the plan, we don't have to do anything.” Bloodshot replied without raising his head. At the end, he asked again. “Can you guarantee that the meteor-class doesn't know what happened here?”

“I can guarantee it.” Speaking of business, Seva also restrained her smile. “We have activated the information shielding device. Before the end of the battle, there will absolutely not be a trace of information transmitted from here. In fact, we are very lucky that there are no high-level star pirate warriors here, otherwise the time it would take to fight them would be enough for the star pirates to break through the shielding.”

“This is not luck, this is the Gemini's credit.” Bloodshot said lightly.

“It's them again…” Seva glanced at Bloodshot with some dissatisfaction. “Don't you have any other partners in your eyes?”

“Yes…” Bloodshot's answer made Seva happy, but in an instant he said another sentence. “Or not.”

“It's the same as not saying it.” Seva frowned unhappily. She was already very beautiful, and this frown gave her an indescribable charm. It was a pity that it was the same as showing it to a blind person for Bloodshot, and he didn't even have the interest to take a look.

“Mr. Bloodshot, although you don't say it, I know you care about those two siblings very much. The golden contribution point you want is for them, right?”

“…………” Bloodshot did not speak, but it was equal to admitting it.

“With that golden contribution point, the Gemini siblings can lift their punishment and return to their status as trainee mercenaries. Mr. Bloodshot, I have to say that you consider your partners very well. But have you ever thought about it, if they regain their status, is it still possible for them to be by your side?” Seva said softly, but every sentence was aimed at the heart.

“…………” Bloodshot continued to remain silent, just gently stroking the Nether Leopard. After a while, he stood up. He smiled slightly at Seva.

“I'll say it again, they are just my partners. Not subordinates.”

“In addition, I know you have great authority here. Customize a set of armor for my Fierce Tooth. It must be all-environment. The cost… is on you.”
