Starborn Zero II: Tales of the Dragonmen

The catman bartender looked at Mo from top to bottom.

"Lizard people? I've seen one with a brown and black tail, but this is the first time I've seen one with a silver tail."

Jin guessed that he was talking about ordinary lizard people, and continued to ask unwillingly, "Has there been no dragon people here?"

"Dragonoid?" The cat-man bartender seemed to understand something when he heard the word, "Are you a bounty hunter, the kind that specializes in finding magical species?"

Gene seemed to know something from his tone, "Yes, I'm looking for the dragon people."

"The bounty hunter's news fee is not limited to this." The cat-man bartender deliberately weighed the gold coins in his hand.Genn raised his eyebrows, and took out the laser pistol from the holster.The cat bartender's eyes widened, and his greedy eyes fell on this novelty.

Gene turned on the laser lock and fired a shot at the nearby wooden table.The laser sliced ​​the table in half like tofu, leaving scorched black burn marks on the cut.The orc people who were drinking nearby immediately dispersed, and the cat-man bartender was so frightened that the cat's ears stuck tightly to his head.Gene turned his head and smiled at him, his tone softened.

"I can reward you with all the remaining bullets, can you tell me?"

"No, no, no need..." the bartender of the cat man was all mouthful, and pushed the gold coin back to Gene, "I just heard that the bounty hunter who came to drink mentioned that what dragon people are looking for? place of martyrdom."

"Nonsense!" Gene sneered, turned on the laser lock and put the muzzle of the gun on his forehead, "The dragon people should live in another galaxy, why would bounty hunters come here to ask their whereabouts!"

The cat bartender was so frightened that his legs went limp, his lips trembled and he couldn't speak.At this moment, one of the bystanders, a snake clansman with a snake tail and a human body, interjected.

"I have also seen bounty hunters inquiring about the place where the dragon people died in love here."

"I've seen it too."

"Well, someone asked about it two days ago."

All the orcs onlookers spoke one after another.

Jean looked around at the orcs.He took a money bag out of his pocket and slapped it on the table.The bag was full of golden gold coins, and there was a sound of excitement and surprise all around.

"Provide a clue, and you can take away a gold coin."

Everyone look at me and I look at you, although eager to try but dare not be the first person to eat crabs.The snake man who just interrupted spit out the forked letter, and tentatively opened his mouth first.

"Dragonoids have never seen the head of the dragon, so the bounty hunters want to go to the place where they died, at least to find the bones. It is said that the dragon people are very loyal to their spouses. When the spouse leaves forever, the remaining party will go to the place where they died. Starve yourself to death."

Genn motioned to the snake man.The snake man swam over and took a gold coin, and left happily.Seeing that the sweetness was true, the rest of the people spoke up one after another.

"I heard that the planet where the dragon people live will move from one galaxy to another in an instant, instead of staying in one place all the time."

"Yes, that's right, I heard that too, and the same is true of the place of death. The bounty hunters who heard about the place of death talked later and found that the place of death they had been to was not in the same galaxy at all."

"That means there is more than one place to die for love?"

"There must be only one place of death for love. Some hunters found things that other hunters deliberately left behind in the place of death for love."

"It's my turn, it's my turn. I heard that the dragon people are supernatural beings, and they are connected with heaven."

"Well, I also heard that the dragon people are actually offering sacrifices to the heavens. Their clansmen will send one to sacrifice to the heavens at a fixed time."

......

A bag of gold coins was split in an instant, and Gene sorted out the rush of information in his brain.Mo hid in his arms and listened to everyone's talk, while picking up the empty money bag on the table and curiously rummaging through it.Genn breathed a sigh of relief, patted him on the shoulder and motioned to leave.

"Let's do this today, let's go."

The two turned around and were about to leave when a tall figure appeared in front of them.Gene was a little surprised, it was a human being standing in front of him.He was dressed in animal skin clothes, he was tall and strong, he looked fierce, and he was born with beard and sideburns. He looked at least 60 years old.

"I also have clues to provide." His voice was thick and steady, and his gaze was always on Mo, staring at him like a predator staring at its prey.

Seeing that he had been staring at Mo, Gene pulled Mo behind him, with a clear warning in his two-color eyes, "I don't have any money for you today, next time."

The hunter looked at Genn, and then took a necklace from under the thick fur coat.Gene watched his movements, and suddenly his eyes widened.The necklace is made of more than 20 silver scales, and those scales are exactly the same as those on the ink tail.

"I don't want money." The hunter generously held the necklace in front of Gene.Genn took the necklace warily and touched the texture of the scales.There is no doubt that these are the kind of scales on the black tail.

Gene understood what he meant, and threw the necklace back to him, "Then what do you want?"

"I'm going to take your boat out of here."

Gene thought for a moment, "Come with me."

The hunter suddenly came close to his ear and whispered, "Be careful of the dragon people, they are all devils in angel clothes."

Gene froze for a moment.At this moment, Mo pushed the hunter away forcefully, as if dissatisfied that he was so close to Jin.The hunter followed closely and grabbed his hand, grinning grinningly and tightening his slender white arms.Mo was in pain from his grasp, so he hugged his arm in desperation and took a bite.The hunter was about to grab his collar with his other hand when a gun was pointed at his forehead.

"Let him go." Gene looked at the hunter coldly.

The hunter's tone was a warning, "Raise your gun at your own kind, and one day you will regret it."

Gene sneered, and turned on the laser lock of the gun, "If you don't let go, you will regret it now."

The hunter saw that he didn't look like a hard-spoken and soft-hearted person, and his tone showed concessions, "Let your little pet let go first."

Gene turned his head to Mo, who was biting the hunter, "Don't bite casually, let him go."

Only then did Mo let go of his mouth, pouted and hid behind Gene in aggrieved manner.The hunter's eyes showed curiosity, as if he didn't understand how this man managed to make Mo so obedient.

"What's your name?" Gene also put away his gun.

"My name is Lear, the bounty hunter Lear."

Surprised voices suddenly sounded around, and Gene couldn't help showing surprise.Star thief and bounty hunter are two adjacent professions, and Gene knows a lot about the circle. Five years ago, like Rodney, when he had just graduated from the military academy and was serving as a cadet second ship, he heard the name of the bounty hunter Lear.At that time, he became famous in the bounty hunter circle because he captured the legendary rare beast-angel bird in the original galaxy.

However, less than three months after becoming famous, he mysteriously disappeared.Some people say that he was chased and killed by his peers because of his fame. Some people say that he continued to hunt for strange things and then killed himself by overreaching. Some even say that he was punished by heaven for catching a divine bird and disappeared.In any case, there was no news from him after that.

Gene looked him over again. He was only 5 years old when he became famous 25 years ago, and it stands to reason that he is only 30 years old now.But the person in front of him is over [-] years old, no matter how you look at it, his age doesn't match.But thinking about it, it's useless to say more here, Gene didn't ask any more questions, and left the bar with Mo and Lear.

red giant star

Gene contacted Donald immediately after returning to the mothership, but unfortunately Donald was not in the laboratory.He had no choice but to leave a message and ask him to contact him as soon as possible after his return.He then asked the crew to take Lear to the residential floor first, and then he began to discuss the supplies with Rodney.The supply equipment here is very backward, and Rodney is inexperienced, so Gene had to take him to check the equipment himself.

Experimental area

Mo was bored and wandered around the experiment area alone.It was lunch time, and there was no one in the experimental area.Mo came to the birdcage to chat with the bird, then went to the incubator to talk to the lizard, and finally sat on the ground and drew circles when he had nothing to do.He dipped his finger in water to draw a circle, filled in the nose, eyes and mouth, and finally wrote Gene's name next to it.

"Jean, I'm hungry, why haven't you come back!" He pouted, dissatisfied with "Jean" on the ground.

He suddenly felt a pair of eyes looking at him.Looking up, Lear stood in front of him at some point, staring at him silently.Mo's heart sank suddenly, and he moved his body back in fear until he bumped into the cabinet behind him and couldn't move any further.

"Is he your spouse? Are you a female?" Lear's eyes were dangerous, and he was also extremely excited. "Great, I finally found it!"

Mo's heart beat so fast that he was about to pop out.The next moment he rolled twice on the ground, then jumped up and wanted to run.But Lear's movements were exceptionally fast, and he picked him up from behind at once.Mo was so frightened that he struggled and yelled loudly, his tail lashing his body desperately.Lear covered his mouth firmly, and then carried him to a corner where he was out of the way.

"Open the time-space channel, quickly open the time-space channel for me!" Lear stared at his eyes like copper bells, threatening in a low voice with a scary face.

Mo was so frightened that his tears welled up, he couldn't understand what he said at all, and couldn't care about anything except struggling desperately.

"You don't understand?" Lille seemed to be able to see that he was still young, and he probably hadn't used the powers of his clan. "It's okay, I know how to force you to use the powers."

He tore it hard with both hands, tearing Mo's shirt in half.The fair and delicate skin was immediately revealed in front of the man.Lil covered his mouth with one hand and rubbed his body vigorously with the other.Mo struggled even more desperately, tears and snot streaming down his hands together.

"Quickly open the space-time channel, or I will really fall in love with you!"

At this time, Rodney's voice came from far away from the door of the experimental area, "Mo, it's time to eat. Mo?"

Lear immediately covered Mo's mouth so tight that he almost suffocated.While Mo was struggling, he glanced at the mobile cart with experimental test tubes and petri dishes not far away.Immediately, his tail reached over to wrap around the corner of the cart, and he gave it a kick with all his strength.

With a bang, the table was overturned to the ground, and the glassware fell to the ground and shattered.

"Who's where?!"

With a loud shout, the footsteps of several people approached from far away, and after a while they came to the two of them.Rodney, who arrived first, widened his eyes and looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief.Immediately afterwards, Jin's voice sounded behind him.

"What happened?"
