The wife's choice is the best
After a moment's thought, Eugene slowly spoke:
"You know, those black markets all have strict membership systems. With our identities, it's impossible for us to enter smoothly. Unless we can find an absolutely trustworthy person to assist us, perhaps Anthony can. Of course, Knox is also a good candidate."
Anthony is still the leader of the largest interstellar pirate group and has great influence in the black market. Almost everyone in the gray area knows Anthony.
As for Knox, he is the adopted son of Jacob, the former leader of the Star Pirates.
The two of them are very familiar with the rules of space pirates and the black market.
Compared with Eugene and others, Anthony and Knox are obviously more likely to successfully gain the full trust of Custer Island.
Charlie was silent. "But the babies are still young. They may need their father's comfort. Besides, Anthony has to prepare for the navy's entry test soon. The admiral at the navy headquarters is not easy to deal with."
After all, the mermaid babies are Anthony's children. Although Charlie and others can also play the role of father, they are not blood-related fathers after all.
Mermaid babies are still more dependent on their biological father's pheromones.
Eugene: "Maybe I can get Knox to help me."
Charlie was silent for a moment.
Knox is indeed the most suitable candidate. When he was loyal to the pirate leader, he dared to go to the main star alone and kidnapped Saint Anrita, who had just been upgraded to S-level.
This incident caused a sensation throughout the galaxy at the time.
When being hunted by the entire galaxy, Knox successfully took Anita to find the long-lost pirate base.
Knox thrives in the gray area of interstellar space. Although Charlie and others don't understand their rules and codes, Knox has learned them since he was a child.
However, there is another key question at this moment - is Knox trustworthy?
Eugene lowered his voice and discussed this sensitive topic quietly with Charlie beside him: "Charlie, tell me the truth, have you really not held a grudge against Knox? Back then, Knox almost took your life!"
Eugene still remembers that thrilling experience vividly.
Although Charlie was lucky enough to escape death at that time, his miserable appearance was really shocking.
Eugene clearly remembered that Charlie's right leg was broken and he was skin and bones;
Not only that, due to not eating or drinking for a long time, and the complete collapse of his spiritual sea, he was already on the verge of life and death, and was finally sent to a detention center for strict supervision.
If Saint Anrita had not returned in time to save Charlie, he would have been sent to the wetland park that specializes in caring for out-of-control orcs.
Charlie was silent for a moment, then smiled slightly and said, "It's impossible to say that I have no grudges against him, but I believe in my wife's choice. Since she chose Knox, then Knox is trustworthy."
Charlie said to Eugene, "Go pick up Knox and we'll have a small meeting to discuss the next steps."
Eugene nodded, stood up and went out.
For this mission, Charlie planned to let Eugene lead the army and cooperate with Knox.
When it comes to group combat, there's no better force than Eugene's.
After all, dogs are best at fighting in groups, and they can even share their spiritual seas.
Charlie contacted Begway to report the progress and arrangements, while Eugene returned to the castle by the sea.
It was already past four in the afternoon. Knox and Anthony had just finished taking a bath. Anthony was accompanying Anrita, while Knox went to see the two babies, feeling refreshed.
When Eugene came in, he saw Knox, shirtless, wearing only loose casual pants, with wet hair.
Knox's slightly long hair was wet and stuck to his forehead. His mental strength was very active at the moment, much higher than before. It seemed that he was in excellent condition.
As soon as Eugene came in, he smelled the strong scent of marine pheromones in the castle, mixed with the floral scent of Anita.
However, the faint floral scent had been squeezed and blended by two different marine pheromones, leaving little behind.
Just from the smell, Eugene could imagine how intense the situation just now was.
Eugene felt his throat dry and his breath hot.
Unfortunately, he has an important mission and cannot be intimate with Anita for the time being.
Knox also saw Eugene in military uniform. He had always had an average relationship with Eugene and the others, so he didn't speak actively. He just nodded at Eugene and then turned and left.
Eugene took two steps forward and called out to him, "Wait a minute, Knox."
Knox paused, turned to look at Eugene, his face expressionless: "What's wrong?"
Eugene glanced at Anrita's room upstairs and said in a low voice, "Come with me for a moment. I have something to tell you."
Having said that, Eugene turned and walked towards the study on the first floor.
Knox also glanced at the room upstairs. At this time, Anita had been completely exhausted by Anthony and Knox.
These males are so energetic!
They all look like cows!
She decided that she would not indulge them no matter what today. She had to have a good rest and could not indulge in pleasure like this every day!
As expected, she couldn't find too many male partners, and she really couldn't handle it alone.
How do those females who seek thirty or forty male partners usually live?
There are so many males, but they don’t even get a turn once a month. Anrita really admires them.
Anita was taking a nap on the soft couch in the balcony garden, while Anthony was peeling fruit for her.
Anita asked softly, "Anthony, why is Eugene back?"
She remembered that it was not Eugene's turn tonight, and that Eugene should be handling official business in the army at this time.
Anthony paused while peeling the fruit and looked at Anrita in surprise: "Anrita, how did you know Eugene was back?"
Anthony's mental strength has now reached SS level, much sharper than before.
But he could only sense that a familiar male with strong mental power had entered the manor, but he couldn't tell who it was.
It's amazing that Anrita could directly sense that it was Eugene.
Anthony looked at Anrita with admiration.
Anthony exclaimed, "My dear wife, you are amazing! You are the most powerful female in the entire galaxy!"
Anita looked at Anthony, who was naked and shining in the eyes, and silently wrapped herself tightly in the quilt: "No matter how sweet your words are, they will not work. I won't fall for them."
After saying that, she crawled into the bed, leaving only her black hair as black as silk exposed.
Anthony was amused by her.
He placed the cut fruit on the small table next to him and said with a smile, "Don't worry, my wife, I won't bully you anymore. You have a good rest. I'll go downstairs to see what Eugene is doing."
With that, he stood up and left the balcony garden.
After coming down from upstairs, he went straight to the study on the first floor.
In the study, Eugene and Knox were sitting face to face, both looking unhappy.
Eugene saw Anthony come in and said nothing, but just gestured for him to close the door.
When Anthony came in, he saw the hot search terms on the Star Network displayed on the smart computer screen opened by Eugene.
Anthony and Knox looked at each other, their eyes filled with shock.
No way, they just enjoyed themselves with Anrita for a morning and the world became so big?
Eugene pointed at the contents on the AI screen and said seriously, "As you can see, Edmund has likely been framed. We don't know who started the rumor, let alone whether the people on Caster Island are aware of it. Our current plan is to enter Caster Island first, investigate the cause, and, while doing so, destroy the black market and rescue the trapped females."
Anthony was lost in thought as he stretched out his right hand to stroke his well-defined chin, narrowing his eyes slightly, as if searching his mind for fragments of memory about Caster Island.
After a while, he finally broke the silence and said thoughtfully: "Castor Island? This name sounds familiar..."
Knox, standing nearby, crossed his arms, a stern expression on his face, and responded in a cold voice, "Yes, Jacob was a frequent visitor there before, and I've accompanied him there a few times."
At this point, a subtle and complex emotion flashed in Knox's eyes.
Jacob was once the leader of the star pirates that Anthony and Knox served together.
However, Jacob later attempted to capture Anita for research experiments, which angered Knox, who wanted to protect Anita's safety.
In a fierce conflict, Knox personally ended Jacob's sinful life.
At this time, Eugene, who had been listening quietly to the conversation between the two, suddenly interrupted.
His eyes grew unusually cold, and he spoke gravely, "Jacob's so-called research is all focused on the genes of male and female orcs. He frequently visits Caster Island, most likely hoping to buy some females at auction to further his cruel research!"
Hearing Eugene's inference, Knox couldn't help but fall into a brief contemplation.
After a long while, he slowly raised his head and said hesitantly:
"I'm actually not too sure about this. Every time I accompanied him to Caster Island, I always thought he just needed a female for psychological counseling, or that he wanted to mate with a female and have offspring of his own."
