The appearance of the Mo people finally attracted the attention of the mercenaries. It was the first time for these people to see the Mo people. The sudden appearance of such a group of people in the darkness did scare the mercenaries, but their first reaction was to block Heya Zhouzhou and others behind them and look at the strangers vigilantly.
They didn't pick up weapons at the first moment, nor did they show any stress response. Zhou Zhou was a little surprised at how well-trained these people were. It's just that they were too tall and he was blocked behind them and couldn't see anything.
Zhou Zhou stood on tiptoe and stretched his neck to look over there through the gap. Among the pale and strange faces, he saw Molan at a glance.
"Molan!" Zhou Zhou waved his hands vigorously.
Molan saw a hand waving behind the tall crowd, and the familiar voice finally made her let down her guard. It seemed that these people were not their enemies.
Molan said a few words to the tribesmen around him. Those words were not the universal interstellar language, but probably some language used only by the Mo tribe.
The Mo people around looked at each other and quickly disappeared into the darkness.
The mercenaries, who were originally nervous, also breathed a sigh of relief. These people came and went without a trace, suddenly appearing and disappearing in the dark, which made them feel a little uneasy.
"Who are these people?"
"You are a native, right? Have you never heard of the legend of this planet?"
"What's up with these natives? Are they here to watch the fun?"
"Never mind. As long as we don't disturb them, they shouldn't attack us for no reason."
These mercenaries were alert to the movements around them while chatting in low voices. After all, they were used to freedom, and sometimes their voices became louder while they were talking. Only when their companions reminded them with a wink did they remember that the emperor was still here, and they immediately lowered their voices again.
The topic also changed from the indigenous people to the emperor of the empire. They were just following their leader on a mission, and they never thought they were here to rescue the emperor of the empire. The leader didn't say what they were going to do before leaving. When they saw Elvia was here, their jaws dropped.
Zhou Zhou slowly put down his hand, turned around and asked Alvia: "Why did Molan and the others leave?"
When there were outsiders around, Elvia always looked expressionless and majestic, so that the mercenaries who were whispering about him didn't even dare to come forward and say a word. But in fact, Elvia was in a good mood at the moment.
Even though Zhou Zhou was sent to monitor him because of suspicion of his identity, he was not angry about it. Zhou Zhou was very rational. In his opinion, this was understandable. After all, his own identity was indeed very suspicious at that time.
And the most important thing is that he is now holding Zhou Zhou's hand. The two of them are standing side by side, shoulder to shoulder. To others, they are just standing close, but in fact, they are holding hands.
Although these people's mental strength is much better than that of ordinary people, they are still unable to see in the dark, so no one saw their little movements.
Zhou Zhou is not a physical entity now, so the touch in Alvia's hand is cold, and he can't even clench it tightly. The energy body has no shape, and if he holds it too tightly, Zhou Zhou's hand might be crushed, so Alvia just pulls it gently, but he is already very satisfied.
"They brought over those they caught."
Zhou Zhou understood after Elvia simply explained it.
Before, those people were divided into eight teams to search for their traces. In fact, the remaining seven teams were captured by the Mo people, so Molan and the others were going to bring those people back?
Alvia seemed indifferent to everything, like a young boy in love for the first time, only concerned with holding hands and dating. But in fact, his gradually recovering mental power extended very far, and he could see everyone's every move.
After the mercenaries cleared out all the remaining forces on the spaceship and counted the weapons and equipment on the spaceship, the Mo people finally arrived in full force.
Or rather, there weren't that many Mo people coming. Most of them were Alank's captured men. Hundreds of them had their hands tied with green branches similar to tree branches, and were walking here in a string.
I don’t know what these people have been through. They all had fierce looks and were strong and healthy, but now they seemed to have been drained of their energy. They were pale and drooping as they followed the people in front of them.
Most of the mercenaries were outside the spaceship, and the unconscious Heya was placed on a simple bed. After examination, it was found that there was nothing wrong with him, so his men could only let their boss lie down more comfortably.
When they discovered that the natives appeared with Alank's men, they all looked incredulous.
Many of those arrested were wanted, and some of them were even convicted of numerous crimes with cruel methods. Even if they faced such a group of people, they would never be able to escape unscathed. So what methods did the indigenous people here use to catch them?
"I told you not to mess with the indigenous people. They are terrible people."
"How did they catch these people? It's amazing."
"There are quite a few with very high bounties. If we catch them, we'll be rich."
"These people look terrible. They look like they have been tortured."
These mercenaries were full of curiosity about the Mo people. They originally thought that they just looked a little strange, but now it seems that their fighting power is not low. It is really incredible that they can capture so many people alive.
When the mercenaries found out that the natives were actually going to hand it over to them, they were surprised and delighted and quickly refused.
"Hey, hey, hey, many of these are wanted criminals, and the bounty is quite high. If you send these people to the next planet, you can get a lot of money." Although these mercenaries love money, they still have principles.
The natives didn't know that these people could be exchanged for a bounty, and they couldn't take advantage of them.
Can I exchange money? Mo Zhu in the team hurried over to ask. Although she was also a member of the Mo tribe, her speaking speed was similar to that of ordinary humans, so communication was more convenient. Besides, how could they miss out on such a money-making opportunity?
Finally, they negotiated with the mercenaries to detain these people in exchange for a bounty, which would be split 30% to 70% with them taking 70% and the mercenary group taking 30%.
Such a good deal was like pie in the sky, and the mercenaries were all grinning from ear to ear.
This trip is really worth it. We can get a huge bounty for free with zero casualties. You know, the bounty that hundreds of people here can get is not a small amount. Even 30% is a lot.
When receiving these prisoners, the mercenaries were in a very good mood and looked at them with eager eyes, because they were all walking bounties.
At the same time, they also had a better impression of the indigenous people of this planet. These people were so kind that they actually gave them money for free.
The Mo people felt uncomfortable with the mercenaries' unusually enthusiastic attitude. They were not a very hospitable race and were wary of strangers. However, these people looked at them as if they were looking at some rare treasure. After handing the captives over to these people, they hurried away.
"Why did they leave? I wanted to ask them how they captured these people." A mercenary looked at the Mo people disappearing into the night with reluctance.
The figures of the Mo people seemed to be fleeing in a panic, and in the end only Mo Lan and Mo Zhu were left.
"Molan Molan!" Zhou Zhou finally had the chance to talk to Molan and trotted to her side.
Elvia looked at her hand that was pulled free by Zhou Zhou, and then looked at Zhou Zhou who was smiling happily at Molan.
Aren't they in tune with each other?
Zhou Zhou didn't care what Elvia was thinking. He was always worried that Molan was hurt. Now that he had met her, he had to ask her clearly.
Molan also wanted to ask what was going on, so the two of them started chatting as if no one was around.
Elvia looked at them with resentment for a long time, but Zhou Zhou didn't notice at all and was still listening to Molan talking about how they caught those people.
Molan spoke slowly, but Zhou Zhou was very patient, which led to their conversation lasting a long time.
Originally, Zhou Zhou was brought here to meet Molan, but now Elvia finds that this was a wrong decision. They have been talking for too long!
After walking forward a few steps in silence, Elvia stood next to Zhou Zhou.
However, Zhou Zhou was still concentrating on listening to Molan talking about how they scared those people to death and the various traps they set on the planet. Even when he noticed Elvia coming, he didn't even look at him.
"Later, we dragged away the weapons that those people had dropped on the ground..."
"Then, while they are in chaos, we can use the underground pits to drag away the leaders and those who organized the attack. The remaining people will lose their leaders and be frightened, so it will be very easy to defeat them one by one."
The rest of the words were said by Alvia. Although it was rude to interrupt someone, it would probably be dawn by the time Molan finished speaking, so Alvia described what happened next in the most concise words.
Although he was not at the scene, he could use his mental power to "see" what was happening in other places.
Zhou Zhou's attention was drawn away: "So that's how it is, Molan, you guys are amazing."
Molan: “…” She hated this guy.
It feels so uncomfortable to have my desire to express myself held back.
Molan stared at Alvia with resentment in her dark eyes, and suddenly asked, "What is your relationship?"
She had never heard that the emperor of the empire had anyone close to him.
Alvia was shocked and turned to ask Zhou Zhou: "What do you think is our relationship?"
Unexpectedly, this question stumped Zhou Zhou. He hesitated and said, "Friend?"
Alvia: "Friends!?"
Seeing Alvia's rare surprised expression, Zhou Zhou asked in confusion: "Isn't it?"
Ignoring the others who were watching the fun, Alvia looked directly at Zhou Zhou: "Didn't you ask me before if I liked you?"
"Yeah, but you didn't answer me." Zhou Zhou blinked and said innocently.
Alvia originally thought that his actions were tacitly understood by both of them, but Zhou Zhou actually denied it!
Elvia had never spoken about this matter directly, and her previous subtle attempts had all been rejected by the slow-witted Zhou Zhou.
He is not good at expressing his feelings, and he will not easily reveal his likes and dislikes. Perhaps he is subconsciously afraid of being rejected by Zhou Zhou, so he always expresses himself in a euphemistic way, wanting Zhou Zhou to know and wanting the other party to say it first.
Although he now possesses financial power that others cannot match, he has not actually escaped the shadow of his childhood.
I have not been able to get rid of the weak and timid self who was abandoned and hated by everyone.
I can't have what I like, and I have never gotten what I desire.
But now, what I like and desire is right in front of me, within reach.
"Zhou Zhou, I like you."
After hearing what he wanted to hear, Zhou Zhou couldn't hide the smile between his eyebrows.
"I like you, too." Zhou Zhou thought for a moment and then changed his words: "No, I like you the most."
He likes a lot of people, but his favorite person right now is Al.
"Then what shall we do now..." Alvia asked tentatively.
"We are a couple now!" Zhou Zhou announced.
What's a couple to do? Zhou Zhou suddenly remembered this. Although he had been briefly in a relationship with Shirley and Keli before, he only realized later that playing together did not count as a relationship at all, and the scenes he had seen in those love games...
The distance between the two was already very close, and Zhou Zhou suddenly reached out and hugged Elvia's waist.
Before Elvia could digest this unexpected surprise, Zhou Zhou stood on tiptoe and raised his head to kiss him.
The ice-blue eyes suddenly widened, and Alvia's heart was pounding. This was progressing too fast!
Molan, who was standing next to the two men, was thinking: She felt that she shouldn't be standing here, and she just wanted to ask what the relationship between the two men was, there was no need to demonstrate it on the spot.
At some point the surroundings fell silent. Not only the mercenaries, but even the captured prisoners were listening quietly to the two men talking.
What if they get caught? Oh, this is not important. This is gossip about the emperor of the empire. You know, Emperor Elvia is extremely boring and there is no gossip or scandal about him.
You have to know that there are so many gossips about the previous royal families, all kinds of ethical battles, royal internal affairs, and all kinds of messy gossip that made the people eat so much gossip. However, except for the doubts about Elvia's illegal acquisition of the throne and his overly rough methods of handling affairs when he first took office, there was no □□ afterwards.
This is simply not normal.
Apart from fighting wars, the emperor of an empire does not like to go out, does not like love affairs, and does not even have any special hobbies.
Some people even suspected that the emperor was disguised as an artificial intelligence, but later it was discovered that real artificial intelligence was more "lively" than the emperor, and no one mentioned this matter again.
Now that they can see such exciting scenes, they feel that they will be recorded in history.
Except for Molan who was in a desolate mood, Mozhu who was still calculating how much money he could make, and Heya who had been unconscious, the rest of the people present were staring at the two of them silently.
At this moment, whether they were mercenaries or prisoners, their inner cries were the same.
Hurry up! Kiss him quickly!
