#217 - Bad news

"Ah!"

"What's that? Is that a heart? Did he kill that person?"

"God, these people are so cruel!"

"It's over... it's over... they killed the Star Pirate envoy, we'll be retaliated against. We're all going to die!"

"Get out of here! Or we'll all be killed!"

A burst of exclamations immediately rang out in the arena, and people looked at Blood瞳's blood-stained hands and the Star Pirate wreckage all over the floor, panicking and at a loss. The crowd was in a 'chaotic' commotion, and many people were trying to leave this nightmarish place immediately.

"Close the gates!! No entry or exit!" Seeing that the scene was about to get out of control, Sea King Eric shouted loudly.

Immediately, a group of royal guards ran out and quickly blocked every entrance and exit. Maintaining order at the scene. The 'chaotic' sounds in the entire hall began to quiet down, and people returned to their positions under the supervision of the royal guards.

Now, the banquet definitely couldn't continue. All Sea King Eric could do was try to control the situation.

Seeing that the entire venue was gradually being taken over by the royal guards, he then said to Blood瞳, "Thank you."

"............" Blood瞳 remained silent, and after a while, he clenched his palm and crushed the energy core in his hand.

Opposite him, Carson stood upright with his eyes wide open, blood and life-sustaining agents still flowing from the huge wound. He no longer felt any signs of life on his body. But for some reason, the sense of threat he gave to Blood瞳 had not diminished, as if he were still alive.

"He's not dead yet," Sea King Eric said in a low voice, walking up to Carson. "He has entered the second stage of Meteor-class. This kind of injury can only put him in a state of suspended animation, but it is by no means fatal."

As he spoke, a shocking thing happened. Countless blood bubbles suddenly emerged from Carson's bloody wound, and some tiny flesh buds drilled out. These flesh buds intertwined with each other, little by little, little by little, healing the wound. In less than half a minute, the wound was almost half healed.

Sea King Eric's pupils contracted slightly, and he sighed. "This is the second stage. What an amazing vitality. But it ends here."

As he said that, Sea King Eric reached out and pressed on Carson's wound. The next moment, a cold aura entered Carson's body along his hand. Visible to the naked eye, countless ice crystals grew out of Carson's body, and in just a short while, Carson was completely frozen, turning him into a deep blue 'color' ice sculpture.

With a "bang!", the 'ice sculpture' suddenly shattered, turning into a pile of rolling fragments on the ground.

After doing all this, Sea King Eric turned his head and looked at Blood瞳 seriously. "I think we should have a good talk."

"............" Blood瞳 was silent for a while, then nodded.

"Come to my living room, maybe we can have a good drink. What do you like, whiskey?"

"Anything," Blood瞳 replied indifferently, then followed the Sea King to the back of the hall.

Behind him, his companions looked at each other and followed.

The Sea King's palace was very large, and the group followed Eric for a full five minutes before arriving at a luxuriously decorated room. This was obviously the Sea King's private reception room. The room was not large but exquisitely decorated. Everywhere exuded a gorgeous and dignified atmosphere. The floor of the hall was a soft, high-grade carpet, and stepping on it felt like walking on clouds.

At the corner of the living room was a huge wine rack. The Sea King walked over and picked up a bottle of wine and threw it to Blood瞳. Then he said to Robbie and the others. "Please feel free, I don't like formalities, so just tell the servants what you want."

"I want vanilla ice cream!" Posi said loudly first, looking at the corner of the living room with sparkling eyes, where there was a row of the most advanced game consoles.

The Sea King looked at her greedy appearance amusedly and waved his hand. "Play as you like. I won't mind."

"Haha, that's great." Posi shouted happily, then pulled Mia and ran to the game console, and the two of them started playing happily.

At their feet, Lie Ya wandered back and forth, growling, always trying to squeeze forward, but was always kicked down by Posi.

Watching them play happily, Robbie shrugged his shoulders, then smiled slightly at Jules and Pandora. "What do you want?"

"Shenk red wine." Jules threw himself into the soft sofa and replied lazily. "The '63 vintage."

"Let me do it." Pandora said lightly, then walked to the wine rack, opened a bottle of red wine, and sent it to the two of them.

The red wine swayed slightly in the crystal glass, emitting a dreamlike halo. Several people tasted it slowly, and everyone seemed very relaxed. As if they didn't feel like they were in the palace.

The Sea King looked at them appreciatively and said to Blood瞳, "You have a good group of companions."

"I thought you were going to tell me something else." Blood瞳 opened the whiskey and raised his head to drink it all in one gulp. At this moment, his baleful aura had not dissipated, giving people an extremely dangerous feeling. Like a cruel cheetah... full of wild 'nature'.

Looking at his unbridled appearance, a strange 'color' flashed in Sea King Eric's eyes. He also poured himself a glass of wine and sat on the sofa opposite Blood瞳.

"Looks like you're not feeling any pressure about what happened today?"

"Why should I feel pressure?" Blood瞳 asked back.

"You just killed a Star Pirate." Sea King Eric said seriously. "And a Meteor-class one. Aren't you afraid of the Star Pirates' revenge?"

"I'm not afraid." Blood瞳 replied indifferently, thought for a while and then said. "I think you should be the one who's afraid."

"You're really not polite." Eric smiled bitterly.

In fact, what Blood瞳 said was not wrong. Although he took action, he was a mercenary. He could just pat his butt and run away after finishing the job. But he was in trouble. As the controller of Camille, Eric couldn't be like Blood瞳. He had to be responsible for this planet.

However, Eric was not very afraid. Because although the Star Pirates and Death Mercenaries were powerful, it was only temporary. When the Universe Mercenaries reacted, they would definitely not be able to control this star field. All he needed to do was get through this period.

The most ⊥new⊥novel⊥is⊥at⊥6⊥9⊥book⊥⊥bar⊥⊥first⊥release!

Originally, he certainly couldn't do it by himself. But after seeing the battle just now with his own eyes, Eric was confident. If he could get Blood瞳 on his chariot. Then Camille Star would have a chance to fight. Because according to the information he had obtained, the strongest combat power of the Star Pirates and Death Mercenaries was only Meteor-class.

"Okay!" Eric shrugged his shoulders, absolutely giving up the unnecessary probing. "Let's get straight to the point. What did you come to Camille for this time?"

"To get supplies." Blood瞳 replied readily. "I just came back from a mission and suffered heavy losses."

"That's a good reason." Eric took a sip of wine. "If that's the case, you should have been to the West District already. That old guy Besk never holds back when it comes to prices."

"Yes." Blood瞳 frowned slightly. He didn't think Eric knew that there was something wrong with Besk. In fact, as the ruler, Eric should naturally know everything about the areas under his control. And he was indeed worried about this matter. Although Besk said that Hensel would pay for him, Blood瞳 really didn't want to do that. It gave him a feeling of living off others.

Eric obviously noticed this too, 'revealing' a faint smile.

"Actually, on this point... I can help you."

"............" A sharp glint flashed in Blood瞳's eyes. "There's no such thing as a free lunch in the world."

"Of course, I didn't say that help is free." Sea King Eric smiled slightly, took a sip of the red wine in his hand. "I just want you to do me a favor. You can also think of it as a mission. The reward is to bear the cost of this supply. What do you think?"

"............" Blood瞳 was silent, his mind racing.

It had to be said that Eric's proposal was very tempting to him. Especially when he was in dire need of supplies, this proposal gave him a feeling of providing timely help. Blood瞳 really needed this supply too much, not only for his companions, but more importantly, his newly acquired retainers and generals needed to be armed. And the value of these armaments was astonishing. To put it bluntly, if he wanted to arm them all at Besk's place, he probably wouldn't be able to do it even if he sold Blood瞳.

But now Eric's proposal made Blood瞳's eyes light up. As a mercenary, he never minded treating force as a commodity, but the problem was, how feasible was this proposal?

Blood瞳 was not a self-deprecating person. He knew very well that his strength was improving rapidly, but he was still at the bottom of the entire universe warrior system. In the vast universe, there were countless warriors stronger than him. He could handle ordinary missions, but if the enemy exceeded his limits, he would be courting death.

After hesitating for a moment, Blood瞳 still opened his mouth in a deep voice. "Tell me about it."

Eric smiled, he clapped his hands, and immediately a white-haired old man sent over a smart brain. Eric pushed the smart brain in front of Blood瞳.

"This is the main combat power of the Star Pirates and Death Mercenaries that I have collected. Most of them are concentrated in the T6 space station, and some are scattered in this star field. The thing I want you to help with is very simple, that is, to protect Camille Star with me for a period of time. Until the support of the Universe Mercenaries arrives."

Blood瞳 silently opened the smart brain and took a look. He found that there were dozens of warriors' information on it, most of which were Apprentice-class. There were also a few Meteor-class existences. The information was not detailed, but it was enough to reflect the current power of the Star Pirates and Death Mercenaries in the T6 star field.

And just then, the old man leaned over and said something in Eric's ear. Surprise appeared on Eric's face. After a long while, he hesitated and asked Blood瞳. "I heard... your Overlord is Lord Hensel?"

"Yes, what's wrong?" Blood瞳's pupils shrank suddenly, and he asked urgently. "Do you have news about him?"

"This..." Eric hesitated, not knowing how to speak, and after a long while, he said heavily. "I just got the news. Lord Hensel has fallen... Please accept my condolences..."

"Bang!"

The smart brain shattered in Blood瞳's hand...
