at the same time.
The vast and boundless universe.
A jet-black starship was leaping about.
Ownership of this starship.
They belong to the group of mercenaries who kidnapped Rong Yuan.
They are the covert supporters of both overt and covert positions, and they will stop at nothing to gain their own interests.
One of the mercenaries said, "Fourth Brother's idea is good. Hide in a no-man's-land and everything will be fine."
The burly man called Fourth Brother was the fourth member of the Snake Flour Mercenary Group. He was looking at the unconscious Rong Yuan with amusement.
Like the Empire, the Federation also has a black market, but it's not called a black market; it's called an underground city.
The underground city can be considered another name for the black market.
Before today.
A B-level bounty was posted on the forum: Kill Rong Yuan, the eldest daughter of the Rong family.
No one will ask why.
Just like on the Dawn forum, no one will ask you "Have you eaten today?".
Dawn Forum is a forum specifically set up by the black market for people who live on the edge.
It's a forum exclusively for black market members; the login page will automatically pop up when you open the homepage.
but.
To browse the various sections, you need to log in. An ordinary person who accidentally stumbles upon this won't notice anything different.
After all, only those who have entered the invitation code and registered as members will discover the other side of the forum.
There are many kinds of legal and illegal ranking lists on it, and anything can be used for trading.
The bounty list is one of them.
The leader of the Snake-Feng Mercenary Group originally did not want to accept this job with a commission of only three million.
Unfortunately, they had just learned yesterday that they had been blacklisted by the Empire's black market.
The news came out.
They suddenly lost many partners.
The group's economy immediately began to decline.
Operations will not be able to continue for a short period of time.
There was no other choice.
They immediately accepted this B-level bounty, which they would normally not even consider.
The fourth brother was the one who carried out this mission, and his eyes would occasionally turn into vertical pupils.
It resembles a venomous snake that likes to hide in swamps.
The fourth brother fiddled with a small laser gun: "I can relax now that I'm away from the Empire."
He knew full well that even if the empire was weak, it wouldn't be his place to invade. Therefore, he ultimately dared not commit the murders within the empire, but instead chose a no-man's-land.
This was a conclusion he reached after much deliberation.
Two more minutes.
They can then completely break away from the Empire's star system, and then killing someone in front of the Empire won't cause any problems.
The fourth brother glanced at Rong Yuan: "Keep an eye on her. Once she's out of the Empire's control, deal with her immediately to avoid any unforeseen complications."
The other mercenaries immediately nodded.
"What a pity, she's quite good-looking though."
"Indeed, I haven't tasted mermaids yet."
"Just think about it, don't let it cause problems."
"Do I need you to remind me? Everyone knows what's important!"
Just as the fourth brother closed his eyes to rest.
The previously noisy environment suddenly became quiet.
A child walked over.
Upon closer inspection.
The visitor's elderly appearance was extremely disproportionate to his height, making him look like a dwarf, but in reality, he suffered from dwarfism.
"Mr. Lang, what brings you out?"
The man referred to as Elder Lang remained silent, holding a dark elemental magic staff.
He is one of the Holy Sword Wielders.
Outsiders may not know, but he does. The Holy Sword appears to be very loyal to the Empire, but that is not the case.
Those within the Holy Sword are loyal only to the royal family and to power; who rules the empire is irrelevant.
Judging from the old Taoist priest Fengtian, it's clear that the Holy Sword organization is not lacking in people who want to overthrow the empire.
Once discovered.
They would be driven away like the old Taoist priest from Fengtian.
He was one of those who attempted to overthrow the empire.
So he's not a good person.
Or rather, the Brown faction among the Four Holy Sword Masters were all Federation Orcs with this kind of thinking.
They are just good at hiding it.
Up to now.
No one knew that they were not actually Imperials.
They secretly harmed many of their enemies and many good people who doubted them.
This trip.
It was all to resolve Rong Yuan's issue.
Mental confusion and unstable supernatural abilities are a blessing from heaven, and cannot be cured.
They were just worrying about how to deal with Rong Yuan when someone was even more anxious than them and actually offered a reward.
They were a perfect match.
Things went too smoothly.
It wasn't a wasted trip for him.
Old Lang's cloudy eyes shifted: "A sorcerer attempted to use the Soul-Trapping Technique to find someone, but his skills were not up to par."
The fourth brother didn't hold back his praise: "It can only be said that your methods are even more superb!"
He burst into laughter.
This successful conclusion was already anticipated.
Two minutes were about to pass.
Half of the starship had entered a no-man's-land.
The mercenary pointed his gun at Rong Yuan's head.
Just then.
An alarm sounded from the starship.
The mercenary was immediately stunned.
"What's going on!?"
"Fourth Brother, there's an intruder!"
"They're too fast to catch a glimpse of them."
"They must be a superhuman!"
Old Lang twirled the staff in his hand, sensing the presence of a kindred spirit: "No, it's a warlock."
He looked incredulous.
The metaphysical community is quite xenophobic these days.
As a Federation orc, he went to great lengths to conceal his true identity and master this skill.
In his memory.
No one can travel through the universe in their physical body. If someone could, then that person would have transcended the realm of humanity!
But if it's not a physical body.
