Ice Blue Star Region,启明之星 (Qiming Star).

Blood瞳 (Tong) was boarding an ultra-massive transport freighter. This was a flagship-class spacecraft, freshly loaded with cargo from the Ice Blue Star Region, stretching hundreds of kilometers in length. Its colossal size gave it the appearance of a small asteroid, inspiring indescribable awe. The massive hull was densely covered with thick armor plating, like a turtle shell, leaving not even a trace of a gap.

As the largest type of interstellar transport spacecraft, freighters were always synonymous with slowness and heaviness in the universe. In fact, due to the need for transportation and protection, these freighters were almost entirely devoid of weapon systems, possessing only heavy armor. Generally speaking, even when faced with an attack from a fleet of thirty warships, including a battleship, it could continue to navigate for fifteen days and nights.

However, this did not mean that freighters were invincible, because without weapon systems, freighters were essentially crawling turtles in the universe. When attacked, they could only endure, and due to the inertia of their massive hulls, the freighter's movement was extremely slow, its electronic equipment sluggish, and even warp jumps were impossible when jammed.

So, once attacked by enemies, the freighter's only option was to await rescue.

However, because of the freighter's enormous carrying capacity, it remained the primary large-scale cargo vessel in the current universe. The carrying capacity of a single freighter was enough to supply the normal material consumption of a standard planet for a month, demonstrating its astonishing tonnage.

And the freighter that Blood瞳 (Tong) boarded was one of the most advanced types, known as the Trabim Mammoth ultra-long-range strategic freighter. Compared to ordinary freighters, this type had slightly less tonnage, but surpassed them in all other aspects, especially with its own long-range warp drive, making it one of the most despicable freighters in the universe. Also known as a 'smuggling ship'.

Because it had its own long-range jump drive, this type of freighter could bypass normal stargates, and of course, did not need to go through inspection and quarantine procedures. Therefore, it could carry many illegal goods for huge profits. Of course, this type of freighter was itself an illegal item, and docking at most civilization's ports was considered illegal, except for a limited number of civilizations. It would face boarding inspections and detention measures.

But in this chaotic Ice Blue Star Region, this type of freighter was the epitome of maximized profits. It was also the ship that Parrot, the boss of 启明之星 (Qiming Star), had specially prepared for Blood瞳 (Tong).

A quarter of the fleets coming and going in the Ice Blue Star Region were under his name, so preparing a 'smuggling ship' was naturally nothing.

The only problem was that because the 'smuggling ship' was equipped with a long-range warp drive, ordinary ships could not follow it to escort.

Upon boarding the freighter, a well-dressed man was already waiting at the entrance of the passage. Seeing Blood瞳 (Tong), he placed a hand over his chest and bowed, showing graceful manners.

“Hello. Guest, welcome aboard the Jels' Elegance. May I ask what I should call you?”

Blood瞳 (Tong) silently glanced at him, inwardly sneering.

This guy clearly held a high position, at least a vice-captain level. Blood瞳 (Tong) didn't believe that Parrot would dare not tell him the importance of his guest, and yet he was acting like this, so the only possibility was that he was feigning ignorance.

However, Blood瞳 (Tong) didn't want to expose him, so he nodded slightly.

“Just call me Henry.”

“Yes, Lord Henry.” The man's words immediately revealed his pretense. How could an ordinary person be addressed as 'Lord' by him?

But his good manners made Blood瞳 (Tong) very satisfied. In just a moment, he had arranged everything perfectly for Blood瞳 (Tong).

“Please follow me.”

“This is the best room on the Jels' Elegance. You can treat it as your home. It was built according to the standards of the Third World and should meet all your needs. Of course, if you have any other needs, you can tell me, and I will be available for your call 24 hours a day.”

The man led Blood瞳 (Tong) to a room in the upper part of the freighter and said elegantly.

Blood瞳 (Tong) glanced at it and felt very satisfied.

This cabin was more like a garden than a room. It was fully equipped. There was even an independent air and liquid circulation system, and even an artificial sun. The cabin had an independent small building, pond, woods, and even released small animals. Under the illumination of the artificial sun, it formed its own biological cycle system. The dome was transparent, allowing direct observation of the vast starry sky. It was like a dream.

Without a doubt, such a luxurious room was rare even on Fourth World cruise ships. What the man said about being set up according to Third World standards was indeed true.

It was just that these luxurious enjoyments were somewhat useless to Blood瞳 (Tong).

After looking at it for a while, he said to the man.

“What's your name?”

“Call me Jack, Agile Jack.” The man immediately revealed a faint smile, even more respectful than before. Actually, it was simple. He knew that Blood瞳 (Tong) was a distinguished guest greeted by Boss Parrot, and the distinguished guest had asked for his name. Then his name might be heard by Boss Parrot.

Everyone was realistic, and Jack was no exception.

In fact, he had been the vice-captain on this freighter for five years without any change. Now that he had such an opportunity, how could he give it up? Who knew, maybe because of a word from Blood瞳 (Tong), his position might be promoted by one level?

It was a pity that Blood瞳 (Tong) wouldn't care about his little thoughts. For the current Blood瞳 (Tong), he was too far away from the world of ordinary people.

“I really like the environment here. But I think, maybe I need a little training space. Do you have gravity devices here?” Looking at Jack's somewhat flattering smile, Blood瞳 (Tong) asked in a deep voice.

“Yes, of course, we do.” Jack nodded repeatedly. “The devices here were just equipped from the Fourth World. A two-hundred-fold gravity device is already contraband. It will definitely meet your needs.”

“Two hundred times.” Blood瞳 (Tong) pondered silently, but sighed slightly in his heart.

He had exceeded two hundred times the training intensity a long time ago. If he was just training on his own, a two-hundred-fold gravity was not enough.

“Is there a larger multiple?”

“Ah?” Jack was immediately dumbfounded. Even two hundred times wasn't enough. How strong was this distinguished guest? He now understood why Boss Parrot had told him so solemnly to treat him with caution. No amount of caution was too much for such a strong person.

“The rest… are not here.” Thinking nervously, Jack said softly.

“Then where are they?”

“In… the Forbidden Beast Arena.” Jack carefully observed Blood瞳 (Tong)'s expression for a while before saying a term.

“Forbidden Beast Arena?” Blood瞳 (Tong) was stunned.

“It's… the place where prohibited creatures are held. Because those creatures are very powerful, the strongest gravity amplification devices are installed there to suppress them. About… about five hundred to a thousand times…”

“Oh?” Blood瞳 (Tong) immediately became interested and smiled at Jack. “Take me to see…”

“But, Lord…”

“Immediately.”

“Ah… yes, yes, I understand.” Jack struggled for a while, and finally lowered his head. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
