#204 - Tough Hurk

“Pandora…” The older warrior’s voice was hesitant. “Who exactly is she? Why is everyone looking for her?”

“That’s none of your concern.” From above the seat, the Planet-level man spoke indifferently. “I know you attacked this place because of her. I won’t make things difficult for you. Tell me what you’ve discovered.”

“Yes, sir.” The older warrior shuddered and quickly lowered his head. Regardless, the affairs that a Planet-level being involved in were beyond his control.

Thus, the older warrior spoke of everything he knew as quickly as possible.

“According to the information we obtained, this Pandora was first discovered by a transport ship called Medusa. At the time, she was unconscious on a luxury cruise ship. Old Harry, the captain of the Medusa, rescued her, but fearing trouble, he handed her over to the mercenary Blood瞳, who was escorting the ship at the time. That mercenary was at the Vassal-level at the time, but was promoted to Trainee after returning to T6.”

“A Trainee-level mercenary?” The Planet-level man shook his head, a strange smile appearing on his face. “Continue.”

“Yes, Pandora was taken back to T6 by Blood瞳 and became his maid. However, the crew of the Medusa said that Pandora seemed to have amnesia and didn’t remember her past at all. Moreover, she rarely went out, so few people could get close to her. After we occupied T6, we conducted a thorough search, but failed to find Pandora. We only know that the last time she was seen, she seemed to be traveling to the Faraway Corner with Blood瞳 on a large assault shuttle.”

“And then… the Faraway Corner had that serious launch accident. More than a dozen spaceships that were conducting high-level warp jumps at the same time all disappeared, including the assault shuttle that Blood瞳 was on.”

The older warrior sighed as he said this. “Sir, although our main purpose this time was also to find this Pandora, it is a pity that the clues end here. I am very sorry.”

“No, there’s no need to apologize. You did a good job.” The Planet-level man was silent for a while before saying happily. “This is enough. To continue, we need to go to that Faraway Corner to take a look. Have you been there?”

“That place…” The older man hesitated. “It’s not within our sphere of influence, so it’s difficult for us to conduct a more detailed search, but according to the known information, this accident is related to a high-level figure in the Faraway Corner. There was a little friction between him and Blood瞳, so he modified the launch data. But the funny thing is, he couldn’t escape Blood瞳’s revenge either. The night before the launch, two of Blood瞳’s team members took his head.”

“Typical mercenary style, without any unnecessary dragging. I like this kid.” The Planet-level man smiled slightly. “It seems that everything will fall on the Faraway Corner. But leave these things to me. I believe you have earned your money by obtaining the T6 starfield, right?”

“Yes, sir.” The older warrior lowered his head helplessly. This was originally their mission, but now that a Planet-level being had intervened, he couldn’t even say no. He just… “May I ask who you are, sir…”

“He is called Adam.”

In the hall, a sudden voice rang out abruptly. The several Meteor-level beings standing still were all shocked and looked up. But where could they see any abnormality?

On the contrary, the Planet-level man sitting above, that is, Adam, narrowed his eyes after hearing this voice, and then waved his hand seemingly easily. “All of you, leave.”

“Yes.” The remaining Meteor-level beings were pardoned and hurriedly left.

The hall immediately became quiet, empty and extremely deserted. After an unknown amount of time, Adam shook his head and waved slightly. A bottle of tequila flew over from the liquor rack on the side of the hall, and Adam raised his head and drank it all down.

He actually drank a bottle of tequila in one gulp before putting down the bottle and exhaling.

“Why are you here?”

When he said this, the entire hall was empty except for him. But strangely, as soon as he spoke, a figure suddenly appeared next to the liquor rack, pouring himself a glass of whiskey. He seemed to have been waiting for a long time.

Wasn’t it Heck?

He was wearing a snow-white shirt, leaning lazily against the liquor rack. He didn’t even look at Adam. He didn’t smile lazily until a glass of whiskey was drunk little by little, and then he casually put the glass aside.

“You’re here, how could I not come?”

“I’m doing something.” Adam didn’t care about Heck’s tone. Instead, he replied extremely seriously. Looking at his attitude, there was even a hint of fear.

This was truly a joke. If someone were to say it… that Adam, the most outstanding Planet-level warrior in the Fourth World, would actually be afraid of someone, probably no one would believe it. But the fact was that Adam was extremely serious when facing the lazy Heck. Even the aura that had been shrouding him had become strange and unpredictable. He was obviously on guard against something.

But only those in the Planet-level circle would know that if there was a ranking of untouchable figures among Planet-level beings, then this lazy Heck would definitely be in the top three.

“I know you’re doing something. So what?” Seeming to notice Adam’s fear, Heck shrugged indifferently. A faint smile appeared on his face.

“But I’m very free… very free, very free…”

“So free… that I’m a little bored…”

“…………, Heck, don’t force me.” Looking at Heck’s annoying appearance, Adam seemed even more afraid, and even his tone became a little heavy. He was sitting high up at the head, his burly body looking extremely majestic. But his attitude as if facing a great enemy was in stark contrast to Heck’s laziness.

It was a pity that no matter how afraid he was, Heck was still Heck.

He didn’t even look at Adam directly. He just buried his head in playing with the trinkets on the liquor rack. After a long while, he suddenly smiled.

“Pandora?”

“Hmm…” Adam’s breath stagnated, and he nodded involuntarily. “Yes.”

“What’s her background?”

“I can’t say…” Adam refused without even thinking. But a look of vigilance appeared in his eyes.

Heck smiled slightly and finally glanced at Adam. That look was full of disappointment. “If you don’t tell me… I’ll beat you up.”

If you don’t tell me, I’ll beat you up!?

What an arrogant and domineering sentence this was. But the object of this sentence was still a Planet-level being. If it wasn’t Heck, who would dare to say it? Who could say it?

But Adam knew that Heck not only dared to say it, but he also dared to do it!

Just because he was Heck! The Gardener Heck among the One Emperor, Three Emperors, Seven Kings, and Nine Generals!

Heck, the third most troublesome, most untouchable, and most unprovokable Planet-level being in the Fourth World!

Heck, a bad person who even Stellar-level beings would have a headache dealing with…

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense. Unknowingly, the aura around Adam had become increasingly heavy, and the pressure even penetrated the dome, enveloping the entire space station. Under his terrifying pressure, workers stopped working and mercenaries stopped training. Everyone trembled in fear, feeling the wrath of the heavens.

This was the indifference of higher life forms towards lower life forms, it was ruthlessness, coldness, majesty, and dominance.

Under this pressure, the entire T6 became silent in just an instant, as quiet as a dead zone.

Heavenly might!

“Giggle… giggle…” It was unknown whose teeth were chattering, followed by a worker kneeling down, and then another. In the blink of an eye, a dark mass of people were kneeling on the ground. They wanted to speak, but couldn’t. They wanted to beg for mercy, but there was no sound. They wanted to breathe, but the air seemed to have solidified. They wanted to cry out, but their bodies didn’t belong to them.

In the face of this pressure from a higher life form, whether they were ordinary people or mercenary warriors, they felt as cheap as ants and as fragile as paper.

This was no longer ordinary fear, it was like encountering a natural enemy. It was the gap in the level of life. It was the innate suppression of the laws of nature and the hierarchy of the universe.

No one could escape this rule, no one…

Unless… they also stood at the same height.

In the deserted hall, Heck was drinking his third glass of strong liquor. A faint blush appeared on his fair face. He looked a little ‘cute’. But the words he spoke were not cute at all, and could instead piss people off.

“Are you tired? If you’re tired, take a break…”

“You!?” Adam’s eyes widened, and he was angry but majestic. But he couldn’t do anything to the Heck in front of him. After a long while, he lowered his head, and his aura finally leaked out.

“Heck, don’t force me.”

“Heh…” Heck laughed. “What am I ‘forcing’ you to do? Besides, do I need to ‘force’ you? You’re also a Planet-level being, it’s so embarrassing to say soft words. Be good, let’s not give in, okay?”

“Heck…” Adam’s throat let out a low roar. “You have to understand that this matter is not something you should interfere in. This is my business.”

“I didn’t plan to ‘interfere’, I’m just asking. Is that also wrong…” Heck smiled lazily and reached out to pour Adam a glass of wine. “You’re too nervous, come, have a drink. Relax a little. Hmm… if you don’t drink, you’ll really be disrespecting me… I’ll get angry…”

“…………” The crystal clear wine glass seemed to have a hand holding it from below, slowly floating in front of Adam. Adam’s pupils immediately shrank as if they were the tips of needles.

This glass of wine… was so terrifying in his eyes?

But regardless, Adam still reached out and grabbed the wine glass. His expression changed in a complicated way. Heck wasn’t in a hurry and just looked at him with a smile. After a long time, Adam finally raised his head and drank the strong liquor in one gulp.

“Ding.” The wine glass was crushed by Adam. His gaze suddenly became extremely dangerous. “Heck, it’s not that I want to hide it from you. It’s just that the background is very big. If you must listen, don’t blame me for not reminding you.”

“It’s good that the background is big and fun… You know me, I never do things that aren’t fun.” Heck didn’t show any abnormality and instead replied with a smile.

Seeing his expression, Adam finally resigned himself and lowered his head. He spoke slowly.

“Actually, that Pandora is someone that the Third World wants.”

“Ding…” Heck’s wine glass was also crushed at this moment.
