Colonial Suit

In the void, a cloud of mist drifted slowly, like a natural landscape.

Suddenly, a meteor carrying a life fluctuation intruded into its range. It wriggled and then swallowed the meteor. Ten minutes later, the meteor shot out from the other end of the mist, but its volume seemed to be much smaller, and its life fluctuation also disappeared.

The mist continued to drift, seeming to grow stronger.

“Nebula Beast cub.”

A voice sounded not far from Xuelong's position. Xuelong turned his head and saw a brawny man.

He was very strong, his bulging tendons seemed to contain the power of a Tyrannosaurus Rex. Even his combat suit was about to be torn apart. His short golden hair only remained at the roots, and there was a long scar on the back of his neck. It was Ganzhe, the captain of Team T who took over the Hanhai Star Territory after Deng Erduo, the 'Alloy Will'.

He was originally stationed on Kirk Planet, but since Xuelong was found, he personally took Xuelong to the mercenary headquarters. In his words, this was the top priority of the mission, and everything else had to be put behind it. However, Xuelong knew that he was lying. The real reason was that he had demonstrated planetary-level power in front of his subordinates. So for safety, he had to personally 'escort' himself to prevent himself from doing something beyond control.

This may be judging a gentleman's heart with one's own mean measure, but it also shows how cautious this Ganzhe is.

He is indeed a good captain.

Xuelong thought so.

So his attitude towards Ganzhe was not bad. He pointed to the mist still floating outside the porthole and said softly, "It's the first time I've seen it. Will it eventually become a nebula?"

“It can be done after it matures.” Ganzhe replied, walking over and handing Xuelong a metal flask. “Nebula beasts grow by absorbing minerals and life energy. The final volume may cover half a galaxy. The external manifestation is a nebula. However, its aggressiveness is not strong. It will not actively prey, but will only digest objects that pass through its body. So it is safe as long as you avoid it.”

“It’s a good life form. If you communicate or adopt it appropriately, you can get a lot of useful substances from it. Everyone likes it very much.”

Ganzhe made a final summary.

Xuelong nodded, but he was thinking about something else. Nebula beasts can capture prey that passes through their bodies. So if this nebula beast grows up, will it spread throughout the passage? He is currently taking this shuttle to the mercenary headquarters. This passage is the key point connecting the plane and the headquarters. With such a nebula beast here, it will definitely become a defense for the mercenary headquarters in the future. It is indeed very ideal.

So Xuelong never believed that this nebula beast appeared naturally. It must be the work of the mercenary headquarters again.

Shaking the metal flask that Ganzhe had just handed over, Xuelong heard the sound of water. "What is this?"

“Gistan Fire, you will like it.” Ganzhe replied. Then he leaned on the seat on the side on his own, and also took out a metal flask and opened it. Immediately, a strong aroma of wine wafted out. Ganzhe took a sip and closed his eyes, with a satisfied and comfortable expression on his face.

Xuelong also opened the flask and took a sip. Suddenly, a spicy liquid poured into his stomach, stimulating him as if he was about to burn. The intense, hellish heat surprised him.

“If ordinary people drink this stuff, they will probably die immediately.”

“So it’s the favorite of cosmic warriors…” Ganzhe said triumphantly. He gave Xuelong a thumbs up. “You are the first person who has no reaction after drinking it for the first time. I like your endurance.”

“…………” Xuelong was silent. After a while, he picked up the flask again and took a sip. Then he closed his eyes like Ganzhe.

The scorching wine rolled in his body like magma, and then emitted a wild taste, like a battlefield, like a slaughter, making Xuelong seem to be immersed in endless battles. No wonder Ganzhe likes it. But for Xuelong, who was already used to the battlefield nightmare, it was still too weak.

After only taking one sip, Xuelong lost interest and threw the flask aside.

After that, Qingyue quietly walked over and wiped his face with a square towel. She obediently offered him fresh juice.

Meiding pouted on the other side and kept muttering. “This is a nurse’s job. It’s a nurse’s…”

Ganzhe looked at all this enviously. “You are really a guy who knows how to enjoy life. I hope you will still be in this mood later.”

“What do you mean?”

“We are about to enter the force field isolation. We will encounter some uncomfortable things. I remind you, if your companions are ordinary people, it is best to let them enter the hibernation pod.” Ganzhe said. Then he closed his eyes again, ignoring Xuelong.

Xuelong nodded and let Qingyue and Meiding enter the hibernation pod. Ganzhe's reminder was well-intentioned, and he would not ignore it.

Sure enough, only a few minutes later, Xuelong felt the shuttle shake, and the whole world became dark. All the light disappeared without a trace in this instant. Space was greatly distorted with high intensity, and everything began to deform. Xuelong felt that he and the shuttle were being stretched and rolled, as if they had been thrown into a void vortex.

But this was not the most bizarre thing. The most bizarre thing was that Xuelong's power was actually restricted. All connections with the rules were cut off at the same time. His thoughts were limited to a very small range. The feeling was like returning to the ruins seven years ago.

The latest novel is first published on Liǔ 9 Shū Bā!

“Space crack!” Xuelong was shocked. But then he reacted and couldn't help but be stunned. “Not a space crack, but fragments. No, it’s a void channel, it’s a black hole!! A man-made black hole!!”

He was actually passing through a man-made black hole! ??

In an instant, Xuelong understood everything. Why the location of the mercenary headquarters was unknown. Why they would use an offset plane as a transit station. It turned out that they were not in the normal universe at all! Their location was in subspace, or even anti-space!! Only in this way could they need a man-made black hole as a channel to travel to and from the normal universe. Only in this way could they have some secrets that ordinary people could not imagine.

But how many resources would it take to maintain such a man-made black hole… Xuelong couldn’t imagine it.

And most importantly, whether it is subspace or anti-space, its rules are completely different from the normal universe. So to survive here, it is necessary to construct a living environment that meets the survival of positive space creatures. Otherwise, except for powerhouses above the meteor level, others would not survive for even a second.

The power of the cosmic mercenaries is indeed the pinnacle of mankind!

Xuelong thought silently, experiencing the feeling of being torn and twisted by the black hole. After only a while, he felt a jolt in his body, and the familiar power returned to his body. When he looked again, a magnificent city had appeared outside the porthole.

That was a floating city built in subspace.

Its name is 'Second Divine Throne'.
