Chapter 188: The Despair of Serrad

The artificial sun went out, and the light of the entire floating island became dim. In the Judge's spaceship, Mogaro was formulating a surprise attack plan.

He stood around the simulated sand table, and suspended in the center was the virtual image of Floating Island No. 113.

"This person has a record of killing B-level life forms, but the strength of the person he killed was not top-notch. According to the information we have, he fled for a while when facing those two people." Mogaro Chen said:

"After sneaking in, subdue this person immediately. There's no need to be too timid. It's okay if he gets hurt..."

As he was speaking, the sound of footsteps came from the men he had assigned to check intelligence earlier. They hurried over to his side and whispered, "Captain, there's a problem."

"Those mercenaries are from Nighteyes, they're not targeting us."

As he spoke, his subordinate pulled up information on the screen. "The Hidden Star Thief—Sailad—has recently caused quite a stir in the Land of Stars. He seems to have stolen a very valuable item from the Night Eyes Mercenaries, and they're all looking for him."

His subordinates stood aside to report, while Mogaro looked at the information on the screen, his pupils rippled. "A life form that is proficient in disguise?"

"That's right..." The subordinate nodded and whispered, "That's also why the Night Eyes Mercenary Group wants to search our spaceship."

"This Serrad is trapped in the Land of Stars. The other A-level life forms are very respectful of the Night Eyes Mercenary Group. It will be very difficult for him to escape."

However... his and his companions' identities were special. Thinking of this, Mogaro's expression changed slightly, and he immediately gave an order: "Call everyone in the cabin here. No weapons are allowed!"

"yes!"

Mogaro looked thoughtful, and his eyes suddenly swept over several other B-level life forms. He paced back and forth. His only target was Kai, and he didn't want to cause any trouble.

"Let's do some testing first. Since the disguise skills are so advanced, let's do a blood test." Someone took the initiative.

Mogaro nodded. After all, the other party only had one person, and at most he could only disguise himself as one person. After all, they had the advantage in numbers.

Footsteps were heard one after another, and people with golden pupils came into the cabin hall, all looking a little confused.

Before they all arrived, Mogaro and other Class B life forms had completed blood tests.

The pretender was not among them.

"Stand still!"

Mogaro scolded in a deep voice and stared at them closely. From the surface, there was almost no clue.

"Captain, what are you doing?" Someone asked tentatively, not knowing what was going on.

Mogaro frowned. The equipment on this spaceship was not very advanced and blood testing would take time.

It would probably be difficult to find any clues in a short period of time. If we can't find the target in the first place, gathering everyone here will only make the enemy alert.

But his mission was imminent, and he didn't want to waste too much time playing house with that guy.

At this moment, his eyelids suddenly twitched, "Wait, is there someone missing?"

The numerous soldiers standing before him looked at each other in confusion. Mogaro took a quick look and said, "Yes, one hundred and twenty-seven people, one less."

"It seems to be Ross..." someone said hesitantly, and then a group of people echoed him: "Yes, it's him."

Ross?

Mogaro's expression was slightly shocked. The scene earlier when Ross asked him why he didn't retreat was still vivid in his mind.

I couldn't help but feel a chill in my heart. They were very close to each other at that time, but I didn't notice any clues?

"Seal the spaceship and go find him!" Mogaro shouted, but then shook his head: "Wait, that guy is a B-level life form, you are no match for him."

"Everyone stay here. I'll contact that Night Eyes Mercenary Group."

At this moment, commotion suddenly broke out in the team. Some soldiers suddenly fell on their backs, their faces pale, their pupils trembling, and foam coming out of their mouths.

"John!" the teammate next to him shouted. Mogaro rushed over quickly, took a look, and his face changed drastically: "Oh no, it's nerve gas!"

At the same time, more soldiers felt strange and fell to the ground with foam at the mouth.

He flashed to the operating table and felt strange sensations in his body. The power of this nerve gas was not low, but he could still barely resist it.

When I slid it to open the exhaust system, an alarm sounded, "Unable to start temporarily, please check carefully!"

"It's over." Mogaro felt a chill in his heart. He heard a bang and turned around to see that the weakest B-level life form among them had fallen to the ground, twitching all over.

Golden flames suddenly gushed out of his body, as if trying to tear the hull apart.

But the next moment, the golden aura all over his body went out, half of his body lost control, the world was spinning in front of his eyes, and he staggered and fell to the ground.

Mogaro's golden pupils were bloodshot, and the cabin gradually became silent.

Dong! Suddenly, footsteps were heard. In the blurry vision, a figure gradually walked in front of Mogaro and slowly squatted down.

"[Eternal Sleep], this nerve gas isn't cheap. Fortunately, its power hasn't been compromised."

"You... are Serad?" Mogaro could barely see the person in front of him and said with difficulty, "If you dare to attack us, the Judge Civilization will not let you go!"

"Ha..." Serrad laughed, then calmed down and said gloomily, "Can you blame me for this? It's your fault for not wanting to retreat and insisting on staying."

"A bunch of idiots!" Serrad sneered. "Don't worry, you won't die for now. B-level life forms are very valuable. Many people will be interested in you, and you'll fetch a good price."

“It’s also an extra bonus…”

As Serad spoke, he stepped over Mogaro and stood in front of the operating table.

I couldn't help but feel a little excited. I could steal things from an A-level life form and leave safely. In the end, I could make a fortune with the help of the golden-eyed man.

Played tricks on everyone.

After this incident, his reputation will rise to a higher level.

"Ha... A-level life form, nothing more than that." He grinned, everything was ready, and suddenly pushed the lever.

The expected feeling of weightlessness during propulsion did not come, but instead an alarm sounded: "Beep—main engine compartment leak, please repair it as soon as possible."

"The engine is broken?" Serrad's heart skipped a beat, and a bad premonition arose spontaneously.

He quickly turned on the spacecraft's panoramic video and called up the log, and found that although Night Eyes' mercenaries had been staring at the spacecraft, they had not approached it.

"It wasn't them?" Sairad didn't relax, his eyes suspicious: "Could it be an accident?"

He was a little hesitant, but the hope of leaving here was right in front of him, so he had to head towards the main engine room carefully.

Although it was a large spaceship, it would only take ten minutes at most to reach the engine room on the bottom floor, but it took him half an hour.

Along the way, he was extremely careful, fearing that there would be any traps.

As a result, after arriving at the location, they found that someone had opened the pressure cover of the engine compartment, causing it to be unable to pressurize.

Nothing happened until he closed the lid, and Serrad finally breathed a sigh of relief, his uneasiness dissipating a little.

"Is it really a surprise?"

He muttered something, turned around and hurried back to the cockpit. However, just as he stepped through the hatch, a sense of fear that ran from his tailbone to his forehead swept through his body, his hair stood on end, and his heart beat violently.

He turned his head stiffly and saw a figure standing in the corner. He was tall and sturdy, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, wearing a black windbreaker, and his face could not be seen clearly.

"When...when!" Serrad's heart was shocked and his eyelids were twitching wildly.

But after all, he was someone who dared to steal from an A-level life form, so he quickly calmed down.

Out of caution, he is still using the mimicry of the golden-eyed man.

This method is his reliance, and even A-level life forms cannot see it.

"You... who are you? This is a spaceship of the Judge civilization. Setting foot here without permission will be considered a declaration of war." There was a calmness amidst the horror, and the show was quite good.

Li Ming watched with interest, "Really? Then why are all these golden-eyed people lying on the ground?"

Not far away, Mogaro, who barely retained a trace of consciousness, tried to speak, but could only twitch his fingers.

This nerve gas is not lethal to these Class B life forms, but it has a highly paralyzing effect.

"This is an internal matter of the Judge Civilization and has nothing to do with you." Serrad was unsure, but didn't mind delaying time.

Because the entire cabin is filled with nerve gas, no matter who the opponent is, it is likely not a Class A life form, so the longer it is delayed, the better.

"Haha..." Li Ming laughed, "Forget it, Serad, stop pretending."

Serrad was horrified. His worst premonition had come true. The other party was coming for him!

But he didn't understand what went wrong. The Night Eyes Mercenaries were obviously not sure he was here, otherwise the A-level life forms would have come long ago.

Then who can see through his disguise?

He didn't believe that the interstellar predators on the road were capable of seeing through his disguise and even sneaking in here silently.

Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed through his mind, and a pair of indifferent eyes vaguely appeared in front of him. Was it the great mechanic?

But he didn't have time to think too much. His identity was exposed, so Serad turned around and ran away, extremely decisively, without any thought of resistance.

"Quick reaction." Li Ming praised. He originally wanted to launch a sneak attack, but he didn't expect this guy to be so sensitive to the environment.

Then it also disappeared, stirring up a strong wind.

Serrad intended to tear the metal cabin apart and leave the spaceship, but the sense of impending crisis made his hair stand on end and he was terrified.

"How come this guy is so fast!?"

If it were an ordinary B-level life form, he would be able to gain a sufficient distance in a few breaths, break through the cabin wall, and leave calmly.

But this guy is too fast, there is no time to waste.

"The speed is really fast..." Li Ming was surprised. This Serad, who had increased his speed all the way, was indeed much faster than ordinary B-level life forms.

Little did he know that Serad was far more surprised than he was.

"Could this guy also be a B-class lifeform specializing in speed?"

He secretly cursed his bad luck. It was rare to see this kind of life form on a normal day. Who would have known that seeing one today would be fatal.

This large spaceship became extremely small in front of the two people's speed, and they even passed by each other several times.

"No, I must escape. He is faster than me and will catch up with me sooner or later." Serrad's face changed again and he turned to another corner.

What puzzled him even more was that the nerve gas in the cabin seemed to have no effect on this man, and delaying time was useless.

Li Ming followed closely behind. The distance between them was getting closer, but he did not rush forward recklessly. In front of the opponent's speed, he would disappear if he was delayed for a moment.

Suddenly, Serrad gritted his teeth, his skin quickly became engorged with blood, and his speed unexpectedly increased to a higher level, turning several corners in an instant.

Then he suddenly stopped, and a green vortex of air swirled around his arm, stirring up a strong wind in the corridor and heading towards the metal cabin.

He took the opponent's attack head-on and tried to make a breakthrough.

As both of them are evolved forms specializing in speed, even if the opponent's development progress is higher than his, his lethality will not be much higher. He should be fine if he can withstand a blow.

The thought crossed his mind.

Then, his face changed drastically in horror. Without any warning, the other party suddenly appeared not far away from him!

There was no violent gust of wind caused by kinetic energy, which could not be explained by speed.

Serrad couldn't believe it. The black robe on the other party had disappeared long ago, and it turned out to be a combat mecha. Red arcs of electricity suddenly burst out from its body, mixed with violent storms and flames.

There was no time to be surprised, as he looked at the fist that was dragging a fiercely burning red arc, like a comet falling from the ninth heaven.

Serrad's pupils shrank as an unimaginable and terrifying force slammed into his shoulder, shattering his shoulder blade in an instant.

The severe pain stimulated his nerves and his vision suddenly stretched.

boom!

Like a meteor, he was smashed away, tearing several walls. The red lights in the cabin kept flashing and the entire spacecraft was shaking.

Serrad was embedded in the wall, his disguise had long been broken, and his face was dazed.

"You are so brave! You dare to take my punch." A faint voice sounded in his ears. Serrad opened his mouth, spat out a mouthful of blood, and coughed continuously.

Li Ming was also quite surprised. He possessed the Tank Guard mecha and used the speed system to bless it. At the same time, with the ability of [Space Flash], he could move with the Tank Guard without having to disintegrate because the two were already one.

This was his first time fighting in this way, and he wanted to see if there were any shortcomings.

As he was chasing, he found that Serrad had suddenly stopped for some reason. Naturally, he didn't hesitate and directly switched to the combat system.

Serrad took his punch head-on without any defense, and he was not killed outright, which was considered a strong vitality of a B-level life form.

Serrad was also confused. Where did this pervert come from? Not only was he fast, but he was also so powerful.

Even if a B-level life form is developed to 100%, it cannot be so comprehensive.

Pulling Serrad down from the wall, Li Ming took him back to the cab.

With his vision blurred, Mogaro tried hard to see the situation clearly. When he found Serrad who was seriously injured, he was suddenly shocked.

Sairad leaned against the wall, his face ashen, and the severe injuries on his body made him unable to move.

Li Ming connected the smart terminal to the spaceship. After a few operations, he glanced at the person lying on the ground, then looked at Serad and sighed, "The Hidden Star Pirate is indeed amazing."

Serrad sensed a hint of mockery in the praise, and he asked coldly, "Are you the master mechanic's man?"

"Great Mechanic?" Mogaro on the ground was shocked.
