Colonial Suit

Chapter 474: Unimaginable Strength Mobilization... Blood Pupil's Punitive Mission!

Five hours later...

Blood Pupil slowly woke up. The first thing he saw was the clean white gauze and gentle sunlight. Then he felt the two little ones in the crook of his arm.

At this time, the two little ones were sleeping soundly, their faces filled with sweetness and contentment. In the sunlight, two pristine and tender bodies were squeezed on either side of Blood Pupil. Just like green apples. Behind the two of them, a pair of wings formed from energy fluttered slightly. Just like a mother's embrace, enveloping them within.

So... it's them...

For some reason, Blood Pupil was very calm, as if this scene was very ordinary. There wasn't even a hint of desire in his heart.

Born in the apocalypse, he had long been accustomed to the simple relationships between people. Each taking what they needed, each getting what they wanted. Sex or love was a part of human relationships, but not the only part.

For him and the Gemini siblings, what was more important was that kind of dependence and affection. Just as the Gemini siblings liked him, he also liked the Gemini siblings' innocence. In this cruel universe, this was a precious gift that nourished Blood Pupil's heart.

"Don't... leave us..."

"Hehe... Blood Pupil gege... is mine..."

The Gemini siblings' murmurs came from beside his ears. Blood Pupil smiled slightly and quietly broke free from their entangled limbs. Then he pulled over the soft white gauze to cover them. During this process, his movements were very light, very gentle, just like a gentle breeze, without stimulating the two little ones at all. Then he got up, dressed, and walked out of the room.

The door closed behind him, as if closing off a world. A Gemini siblings' sweetest dream world.

"I thought you wouldn't come out so early."

A voice sounded from the side. Blood Pupil didn't need to turn his head to know it was Robbie. At this moment, this guy was lowering his head, arms crossed, leaning against the door, his golden hair obscuring his expression.

"Not everyone is swayed by desire," Blood Pupil replied softly, a faint smile appearing on the corner of his mouth. "How long have you been here?"

"Since they knocked you unconscious," Robbie replied, finally raising his head, revealing his handsome face. "But your performance is different from what I expected. Should I say I'm happy? Or disappointed?"

"Eavesdropping is not a good habit," Blood Pupil smiled slightly and said softly to Robbie. "Do you really want them to be possessed?"

"I always have to be responsible for my teammates," Robbie shrugged. "As for possession, everyone will mature one day. If that person is you, I think it's acceptable. Because you are probably the most responsible bastard I've ever seen."

"Heh..." Blood Pupil shook his head with a wry smile, and finally said, "It's better not to have too high expectations of me. Because no one can say for sure which day I will die."

"That might not be a bad thing," Robbie smiled slightly. He changed the subject. "Huck is back."

"Oh? When?"

"An hour ago. He wants to see you."

"I'll go over now," Blood Pupil said, his expression becoming solemn. Finally... he was going to face the results?

Thinking like this, he strode towards the end of the corridor. Behind him, Robbie was still leaning against the door, looking up, not knowing what he was thinking. When Blood Pupil's figure gradually disappeared, he sighed and muttered to himself.

"Lucky guy... But I feel sorry for those two little ones. When will their wishes come true?"

Shrugging his shoulders, Robbie turned and walked towards the other side of the corridor.

…………………………………………

Five minutes later, Blood Pupil met Huck on the top floor of Losmelt.

This area already belonged to the management level. Both the facilities and the guards were the most complete. Even Blood Pupil had to go through a series of checks before entering here.

When he saw Huck, this guy was lazily leaning in the largest sofa in the room. Still with a cynical expression. And behind him, stood a familiar figure to Blood Pupil.

"It's you?" Blood Pupil's pupils contracted slightly, never expecting to see this figure here.

'Fire Flower', Chris Vina!

Neither male nor female (or rather, neither male nor female), entangled with Huck, with amazing strength, and a terrible Chris Vina who had once appeared as an enemy. Even now, Blood Pupil clearly remembered his terrible confrontation with Huck back then. That battle in the planetary battlefield almost involved him as well.

This was an extremely dangerous guy. In Blood Pupil's mind, he was much more terrifying than Kerrs. Whether it was combat power or personality.

"Long time no see, little guy." To Blood Pupil's surprise, Chris Vina didn't show any hostility towards him. Instead, he greeted him, but those eyes that were forever shrouded in a layer of mist made Blood Pupil feel that she was still in a state of inexplicable wandering.

The wandering of self-awareness, neither completely existing in reality, nor completely existing in dreams. It was a state between reality and illusion.

This was Chris Vina's most prominent feature, as confusing as her hermaphroditism.

With doubts in his heart, Blood Pupil could only greet Chris Vina, and then turned his gaze to Huck. "Lord Huck, this is..."

"It's all because of you," Huck gave a wry smile. He rubbed his nose. "If you hadn't killed Kerrs, how would the Mercenary Headquarters have found him? Without the Mercenary Headquarters, this guy would still be wandering in the Seventh World."

Still wandering in the Seventh World... Hearing this, a black line suddenly appeared on Blood Pupil's forehead.

He remembered that Huck had thrown Chris Vina into the Seventh World and took away his intelligent brain. He didn't expect that Chris Vina hadn't found his way home from the Seventh World for so long. This road idiot attribute was too exaggerated.

But what made Blood Pupil even more speechless was Huck's attitude. Did this guy not have any sense of responsibility? Just throwing people away like this, wasn't he worried that Chris Vina would never come back? After all, this guy and Huck could be considered half-acquaintances, right?

For a moment, Blood Pupil didn't know how to evaluate Huck, and only felt confused. However, he still remembered one thing, it was because he killed Kerrs that the Mercenary Headquarters found Chris Vina. So...

"You're right. This guy is back to fill the void left by Kerrs' death," Huck shook his head, picked up a wine bottle from the table and poured himself a glass. Then he took a sip and said.

"I don't know whether to say you're lucky or unlucky. The higher-ups have already given a reply to your killing Kerrs..."

"Oh?" Blood Pupil was startled, his expression becoming solemn.

"How?"

"You have been confirmed to be harmful to the interests of mercenaries," Huck's eyes flashed, and his tone sank slightly. "Because Kerrs' death caused a large amount of power vacuum and caused seventeen star regions to lose their main support. Causing huge losses to the Mercenary Headquarters, so the higher-ups believe that you must pay the price for this."

"As expected..." Blood Pupil fell silent. In fact, this result was not beyond his expectations. Who made him kill such an important person this time? The Star Shattering Nine Kings were all famous figures. The existence of each of them was no longer a personal matter, but was related to the balance of the universe's forces and the overall planning of massive resources. No matter what the reason for their death, it was impossible to ignore.

What's more, although he was also a cosmic mercenary, his contribution to the mercenaries was obviously far less than that of Kerrs. There was no way the Mercenary Headquarters would let him go.

Then the only question was... what kind of price would he have to pay?

"This is where your luck comes in," Huck put down his wine glass and suddenly laughed. He pointed to Chris Vina behind him while laughing. "Originally, the higher-ups were going to give you a severe punishment, and may even strip you of your mercenary status. But because this guy filled the void left by Kerrs. So after considering it, the higher-ups decided to give you a chance."

"What chance?" Blood Pupil's eyes flashed, and he became slightly nervous. This would probably determine his future fate. It would be a lie to say he wasn't nervous.

"It's a mission." Seeming to know Blood Pupil's psychology, Huck didn't waste any time. He answered simply. "An exploration mission. Extremely dangerous."

"Exploration... mission?" Blood Pupil was stunned, then thought of something, and his expression changed suddenly. "You mean?"

"Yes, I reported the last adventure in the ruins to the headquarters," Huck gave a wry smile. "You know, that ruin is too dangerous, and my strength is not enough to explore it. So the headquarters' strength is needed. It just so happens that the headquarters is also interested in this ruin. So this matter will be released as a mission. Because of this, you have been listed by the headquarters as the object that must accept the mission."

"They're crazy!?" Blood Pupil was stunned, then became furious. "Even you almost didn't come out of that ruin. Isn't letting me go just sending me to my death?"

"That's why it's called punishment," Huck said with a wry smile. At the end, he comforted Blood Pupil. "But don't worry, this mission isn't as serious as you think. This is a cooperative mission, the main force is another group of people, you and I are just foils."

"Are you going too?"

Kerr nodded. "Not only me, Adam must go too."

"And me." Just then, Chris Vina on the side suddenly said, "I'm going too."

"............" Blood Pupil fell silent, but his heart seemed to be stirred up by a storm. Actually... even Chris Vina was going, so to speak, just the planetary level that could be confirmed in front of him had reached three! And they weren't even the main force, so how much power would the Mercenary Headquarters send out for this ruin? How many resources would be mobilized? Did they value Clodier's legacy that much?

Why!?

What exactly is hidden in this ruin?

Silently, Blood Pupil's brows furrowed. Another thought emerged. What role would he play in this mission?
