"If you ask me, you should just give up. There's no way you can get me out of here while surrounded by the Accuser's team."
Outside the warship, Astra, with a local specialty from Planet H91 in his mouth, stretched and limbered up amidst the swirling smoke. He shook his head as he watched the robotic cat installing the self-destruct program on the warship.
No one could escape the Kree Empire's inescapable net, not even Beckett, despite being Thanos's son. Unless Thanos himself came, but that would mean Thanos's Dark Order was officially declaring war on the Kree Empire.
Was it because of him that the Dark Order and the Kree Empire started a cross-galactic firefight?
Astra didn't think he was that important. He knew himself well enough. The secrets he held might be useful to Thanos, but they were definitely not worth Thanos starting a cross-galactic war with the Kree Empire.
The risk and reward were completely unequal, and the Kree Empire was not some soft dough that Thanos could knead as he pleased.
"Shut your trap, beard. Don't compare His Highness Beckett to the mediocre talents you've met before." The Other, Beckett's loyal subordinate, glared fiercely at Astra, who was making sarcastic remarks. The light on the Azure Scepter had dimmed slightly compared to before.
"Data cleared, self-destruct program hidden. Do you want to activate the stealth function immediately?"
"Activate."
He pressed his handprint onto the screen in front of him, and the authorized Woz immediately transformed into a silver-white bracelet and fitted onto Beckett's right wrist. The massive warship slowly disappeared before Beckett and his entourage. Beckett hadn't bothered to erase the traces of his warship's forced landing here.
"Let's go."
Without the slightest hesitation, he abandoned the small battleship that had followed him through countless battles. His cold gaze swept towards the city not far away, which had almost become a ruin. He reached out and brought up the screen on his bracelet, starting to plan a route.
Now, he needed to find a brand-new warship, or perhaps another flying vehicle capable of space jumps.
In this unfamiliar territory, to avoid wasting time, Beckett decided to target Space Pirate Diana, one of the Seven Leaders governing this region.
As one of the seven most powerful individuals on the entire N52 Planet, Diana, who was a space pirate, must have a flying vehicle capable of space jumps.
"Woz is planning a route for you..."
"Insufficient current road information..."
Unfortunately, Woz couldn't directly plan out the specific route this time. Information about Planet N52 wasn't detailed in the database established by Ebony Maw. Finding information about the Seven Leaders in the database was already a sign of Ebony Maw's extreme diligence.
"Your Highness Beckett, Woz needs to connect to the Planet N52 information network to obtain the latest road condition information."
The page on the screen kept spinning in circles, unable to load. Woz, lacking specific information, provided a location, a place where it could get what it wanted – the Information Tower.
The Information Tower, a landmark of Planet N52, was also the center for information transmission and exchange among the Seven Leaders of Planet N52. Each leader had one in their jurisdiction, and it was said to be created by Black Bolt, one of the Seven Leaders. As long as Woz could enter the Information Tower, it would be able to obtain all the information it needed, including the specific locations of the Seven Leaders.
On the map, Woz had already scanned the location of the Information Tower and planned a route. The Other, holding the Azure Scepter and carrying the Casket of Ancient Winters on his back, was hurrying to catch up to Beckett. Astra, taking out a small bottle of Blue Dream from his waist pouch, slowly followed behind, hiccuping.
Since he couldn't escape, he might as well learn to enjoy the present. Astra always had a good attitude.
"So this city really isn't a ruin..."
As Beckett walked into the city, The Other looked at the various entertainment venues lining the streets, his ferocious face filled with curiosity. Women of various alien races displayed their unique charm under the hazy lights at the entrance, trying to empty the wallets of desperate individuals.
Passersby could receive their summons, or rather, the summons of these individuals.
The Other was a little confused whether this was the right path, but after glancing at Beckett, who was indifferent to everything around him, he swallowed the doubt that was about to escape his lips. Compared to the confused The Other, Astra, who had frequented such places for a long time, was like a fish in water here.
His messy beard, wild muscles, and fierce eyes. Everything about the towering man made him look like a wealthy patron looking for some fun.
"Let me tell you, back in the day, on Planet L77..."
Seeing Astra about to linger at the entrance of a shop and talk about his glorious past, Beckett stopped. His cold gaze made the talkative Astra pause, and his words immediately trailed off.
"Ahem, I'll just linger outside. I won't go in, won't go in."
Astra coughed twice, but there was no trace of embarrassment on his face.
"You three, is this your first time escaping to Planet N52?" The woman, accustomed to such scenes, displayed her graceful figure in front of Beckett.
The female alien, who had been in the business world for who knows how long, showed no unusual expression when she saw The Other's ferocious face.
"If it's your first time, why not come in and have some fun? It's free."
"Really?!" Astra's eyes widened at the words. The female alien, with black hair, golden eyes, white skin, and a fluffy tail behind her, smiled charmingly.
"I can't guarantee it elsewhere, but here, I can guarantee it with my chest. Moreover, if you need it, we can also provide you with three days of guide services to help you integrate into this free, open, and chaotic planet as quickly as possible."
"Of course, this guide service comes with a fee, as we need to make a living. But believe me, if you hire us, it will be well worth the money."
The female alien smiled charmingly. Customers like Beckett, who still needed to follow a map, were always the favorites of these "skin merchants." Especially since Beckett's silver armor looked like a valuable item, this business deal alone could bring in a fortune.
"Are you very familiar with this planet?"
The female alien's face lit up with joy. Everything was as she had expected; newcomers to Planet N52 were always eager for a guide.
"Of course, I've lived here for forty years."
"Where is Diana?"
"What?" The female alien was stunned.
"You're looking for me?"
Could it be that her enemy had come looking for her after one hundred and thirty years?
