Colonial Suit
#287 - Warm as silk
The lights of the suspended castle shone all night. It was noon the next day when Carrie and Number Five Cowboy emerged from Blood瞳's room. Both of them looked exhausted, with unconcealable worry in their eyes.
Blood瞳 ultimately did not agree to their request.
In the end, this matter was too dangerous. If Mina hadn't escaped before, it would have been easier. As long as Blood瞳 nodded and the news was strictly controlled, the matter could naturally be kept in hand. They could even divert the trouble and eliminate a few rivals for the Romick family.
But now that Mina had escaped, it meant that the news could leak at any time. When that happened, Romick would become the enemy of the entire Fifth World. What ability did Blood瞳 have to turn the tide?
Don't forget, this is the Fifth World, not the Sixth or Seventh World. A Meteor-class, who could be considered a leader in the Sixth World, is only an elite in the Fifth World. With the emergence of Comet-class, Blood瞳's survival pressure has increased geometrically. Moreover, although he has fought against Comet-class twice, he has not actually achieved absolute victory. If this attracts a siege from Comet-class, Blood瞳 is not confident of winning.
Daring to face the enemy is brave, but being overconfident is foolish.
Blood瞳's every action is based on the law of the jungle in the post-apocalyptic world. Naturally, he would not do such a hopeless thing. Moreover, he is just a mercenary, and his relationship with the Romick family is only a cooperative one. Although Carrie has done a lot for him, he has already compensated for it with the Battle of Waterfall Bridge.
Of course, Carrie also knew that it would be difficult to move Blood瞳 with their current relationship, so she immediately proposed a new mission and a staggering reward.
She was actually going to give Blood瞳 a small planet in the Azure Domain!!
As mentioned earlier, the Romick family is a behemoth in the Fifth World, possessing three vast star regions. However, because the family is an alliance, the number of planets directly under its control is not large, about five thousand. This small planet called Boler is one of them.
And one of the richest!
The name Boler is taken from a very special mineral in the Azure Domain, 'Boler Stone'. The main body is a super-energy-gathering mineral, which is the main filler for producing high-level energy blocks. After the Boler ore is refined, it can also produce a crystal called Boler Diamond. It is also a key material for energy fusion engines. It is enough to see how precious this mineral is. Boler Star is named after it and naturally abounds in this mineral.
In fact, the Romick family's ability to become a behemoth in the Fifth World is inseparable from their control of the Fifth World's energy trade. Boler Stone is their main trading product. Moreover, Boler Star is located in the Azure Domain, close to the Romick family's main star, and is extremely prosperous. Therefore, it is also known as the Sapphire of the Azure Domain.
Carrie's ability to give such a planet to Blood瞳 is truly amazing. Moreover, not only that, if Blood瞳 can help the Romick family through this crisis, he will also obtain the status of a Romick family guest, and can freely use any facilities of the Romick family throughout the Fifth World. His status would be detached.
Such a large price, I believe, is very good even if it rises to the Fourth World, let alone the Fifth World. It's just a mission, and the reward is really frighteningly high.
However, Blood瞳 still refused. This is not a reward issue, but that he has not been arrogant enough to challenge the Fifth World alone.
Moreover, he also has his own plans. With the emergence of the colonial portable modulation device 'Jerome', he has recovered to his full strength. It is time to go back and find Robbie and others. Blood瞳, who lacks warmth, naturally values his partners very much.
Robbie, Gemini, Pandora, Lie Ya, Jules...
And... Li Er.
Only Blood瞳 was left alone in the silent room. He sat in the armchair for a long time, and suddenly murmured almost groaningly.
"Coming back."
Just then, the intelligent brain beside him suddenly rang.
Blood瞳 was slightly stunned. He had just reconnected the intelligent brain to the mercenary network today, and there was news already?
Opening the intelligent brain, Blood瞳 immediately saw a pop-up message. He was immediately stunned.
It was actually a notice for a third-level territory mission. The notice said that if he wanted to accept this mission, he would have to personally go to the mercenary branch in the S722 star region of the Fifth World for identity verification. At the same time, his reward at T6 space station was also credited to his account. Although this battle was not within the scope of the mission, this battle almost determined the situation of the T6 counterattack, severely damaged the Star Pirates and Death Mercenaries, and almost killed the Comet-class Star Pirate Lobisike. Therefore, the Mercenary Headquarters expressed its approval. After counting Blood瞳's kill list, it immediately issued the reward.
An astonishing thirteen million!
Looking at the huge numbers on the intelligent brain, Blood瞳 couldn't believe his eyes. This was the first time he had received such a huge reward. It was completely different from the past missions. Moreover, behind this string of qualities, there was also a number that would make any mercenary jealous.
Three hundred and twenty thousand contribution points!
"............" Blood瞳 really didn't know what to say. This reward was really too amazing. Thirteen million star coins was scary enough, not to mention the contribution points behind it were even more staggering. You know, the successful missions he had done in the past were only tens of thousands of star coins and thousands of contribution points. This reward simply elevated him from rags to riches.
But thinking about it, this is normal. Who told Blood瞳 to perform so dazzlingly in the T6 battle? He eliminated hundreds of Star Pirates in the ambush at the T6 space station alone. He also killed a large number of Meteor-class. The bounty alone was enough for him to be happy. In the end, he joined forces with Lobisike to destroy the space station, and it is estimated that the impact it caused will not be eliminated in the next few years.
The Cosmic Mercenary has always spared no effort in supporting potential warriors. And the rewards for cosmic warriors have always increased with their level. Blood瞳's ability to obtain such an amount also shows that the Mercenary Headquarters recognizes his strength.
Taking a deep breath, Blood瞳 suppressed the excitement in his heart. He began to browse other mailboxes. Because of the long-term lack of contact, his mailbox was now full of emails. Most of them were sent by strangers. Because of the T6 battle, his fame rose, and many forces and families sent cooperation applications and mission requirements. However, because these contacts are private communications, they can only play a preliminary contact role.
Cosmic Mercenaries have a complete and effective mission release system. If you want to bypass this system and complete transactions privately, you will be severely punished. This can be seen from the fact that Carrie has to submit a supplementary application to the Cosmic Mercenary even if she hires Blood瞳. Employers can specify mercenaries, but they still have to abide by the rules of the Mercenary Headquarters.
This is not surprising, otherwise everyone would contact Cosmic Mercenaries privately, and the Mercenary Headquarters would simply disband.
So Blood瞳 doesn't pay attention to this part of the information. What he really cares about is the remaining information.
Private email.
He doesn't have many private emails, but Blood瞳 smiled just by looking at the names of a few emails.
It was actually Robbie, and the Gemini siblings, etc.
Robbie's email was very simple, with only one line of information. "The lost sheep of the universe are endlessly sinking. My Lord's lamb, return to the glory of my Lord. I will definitely wield the shepherd's whip according to my Lord's will. Absolve you of the crime of escaping. Blood瞳, you bastard, don't want to abandon us all, do you?"
At the end, Robbie put on a picture of a bullet. "If you dare to run away, I'll kill you."
The Gemini siblings' email was also very special, fully reflecting their style. The surface is two angels hugging each other, but one is holding a scythe and the other is holding a machine gun. Below it says, "Blood瞳 brother, we miss you so much... We miss you like ice cream. Please come back soon, it's so cold outside, there are so many bad people. They will cheat you, beat you, bully you... Wuwuwuwuwu, Blood瞳 brother, please come back soon, we are so cold, so scared."
At the end, a video of the Gemini siblings was released. The two little guys were squatting in a dark room, hugging their legs and curled up together. Beside them, the ice cream was only bitten once... and slowly melted.
Then... there was Lie Ya's email. "Wuwuwuwuwu... Aww, aww aww aww, roar!" At the end, a paw print was slapped on it.
Pandora's email. "Blood瞳, please appear soon. The coffee is about to get cold. You will definitely be fine, right?"
Jules' email. "Are you dead or not? If you're not dead, hurry back. Robbie is injured, to save me. A new Star Pirate appeared on the T6 side, very powerful. We can't beat him. But I guess he's run away now. I heard you made a lot of money, if you have money, come back and buy a territory. Otherwise, we can't afford your entourage. By the way, your entourage is quite honest, but I can see that they are about to reach their limit of tolerance. I don't care if they betray me if you don't show up again."
"Also, if you have any injuries, I can help you contact the medical institutions in the Fourth World, I can't guarantee success. But it should be a little helpful. Pay for the expenses yourself, don't expect me to pay for you." At the end, there was a shiny dagger.
Blood瞳 read all the emails from his partners one by one. He didn't know how time passed. Gradually, the night of Seraridon came again. Blood瞳 was actually alone in the room for a day.
In fact, these emails are very simple, but they brought Blood瞳 a trace of warmth. It was like the old oil lamp in the shelter in the post-apocalyptic world, lighting up Blood瞳's eyes little by little.
But he is a tough warrior after all, and after only a brief moment of warmth. He came out of his partners' care. He reached out and was about to close the intelligent brain.
Just then, a new message suddenly jumped into the mailbox.
"Huh?" Blood瞳 was stunned. This email was a bit special. Unlike ordinary stranger emails, it actually entered his private domain directly. And there was no name at all.
An anonymous email? A trace of curiosity surged in Blood瞳's heart. He only hesitated for a moment and then opened it.
Then, he saw a surprising message.
"Hensel's little guy. Didn't get killed, did you? If not, contact this address, I've put a gift for you."
This email was not signed, but at the end, there was a lifelike rose.
An ice crystal rose.
