Chapter 77

A tall man stood not far from the Grey-faced Buzzard and stared up at it for a long time. Suddenly, his wristwatch communicator rang.

"Sir, I've lost him." A voice came from the other end of the communicator.

"I understand. Come back." The man hung up the call and dialed another number. The phone rang three times before he decisively hung up. Under normal circumstances, one's subordinates would pick up the call within two rings. If no one picked up after two rings, it could only mean one thing — the person on the other end of the communicator was dead.

The man clenched his fists tightly and then loosened them. The corner of his mouth curled into a sneer. "Not bad. You even dared to kill my people."

After a while, he dialed another number. "You don't have to come over. Woody has been killed. Go and take care of it. Once I'm done here, I'll arrange a decent funeral for him. However, before that, I'll teach Gu Ding a lesson … "

Gu Ding visited three ore processing plants in a row. His purchases went smoothly. These ore processing plants had not received any notice from Bundy.

This was because the Onassis family did not expect Gu Ding to buy ore raw materials to process them himself. Only repair shops and shipyards could process their own parts. Even a personal mechanic did not have the necessary processing equipment and molds. A processing equipment cost at least a few million Star Credits. A fist-sized spare part mold would cost at least tens of thousands of Star Credits. There were tens of thousands of molds. It was not something a personal mechanic could afford.

Lilliath had also visited two ore processing plants. She had visited one less and rushed back to the port faster than Gu Ding.

When she arrived at the port, she saw a tall man standing under the Grey-faced Buzzard. He was wearing blue striped trousers, a white shirt, and a coffee-colored tie tightly wrapped around the collar of his shirt. His short blond hair was combed back, making him look extremely capable. His back was straight, and his hands were casually in his trouser pockets. In Lilliath's eyes, he looked like a sharp blade that had been unsheathed.

He quickly noticed Lilliath's gaze. His gaze swept over, and when he saw Lilliath, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. "Little witch. Lilliath, you've been very famous lately."

His voice was not loud, but it reached Lilliath's ears clearly.

"You're from the Army!" Liliath instantly made a judgment.

"Oh, I thought Gu Ding was the only one with enough observation and judgment. I didn't expect you to surprise me too." The man narrowed his eyes slightly. "Liliath … I didn't find anything about you using that name. This shouldn't be your real name, right? Does he know your real name? "

"That's not something you should be concerned about." Liliath's expression changed when she heard this.

"Then what should I be concerned about? About the incident where you killed my men just now? " A murderous intent flashed through the man's eyes. "This is the biggest mistake you've made on Planet Constlac."

Hearing this, Lilliath remembered the guy she had just tranquilized. The man in front of her thought that she had killed the guy. However, Liliath did not intend to explain anything. She felt that there was no need for her to explain anything to the Federal Government Army. It was their own business to think what they wanted.

"Don't forget that this is a port. It's under the jurisdiction of the port authority. The Army is overstepping their authority by capturing Interstellar Pirates here." Liliath knew very well that she was no match for the man.

"Did you see me in my military uniform?" The man spread his hands. "You should also know that my actions are personal when I'm not in military uniform, right?"

"If you want to do it, then come on." The Combat Armor in Liliath's hand began to transform into a sniper rifle. She quickly loaded it with armor-piercing bullets.

"As far as I know, you're just a gunner. Do you think you have any chance of winning?"

"You'll know once you try!" Liliath's eyes locked on the man's position and she pulled the trigger.

"Liliath is already fighting with the Army. You should hurry over as soon as possible. The opponent is a Rank-7 Gene Body. You might stand a chance if you and Liliath work together. " Neptune had long noticed that Liliath had encountered a strong enemy. He had even secretly told Liliath to stall for time and wait for Gu Ding to arrive before they made their move. Unfortunately, Liliath did not listen.

"Rank-7 Gene Body? That's a Federal Government Army Senior Colonel-level powerhouse, right? Why would he change into civilian clothes to come after us? He won't get anything out of it. "Gu Ding could not understand.

Regardless of whether the Army was in civilian clothes or not, they would not get any bounties for capturing Interstellar Pirates. Although the other party had avoided the Army's responsibility by fighting in civilian clothes at the port, he would only be suspended for exceeding his authority. As for capturing Gu Ding and Liliath and handing them over to the Onassis family in exchange for a private bounty, there was no need for them to take the risk of doing it at the port. They could do it after the two of them had left the port. The other party was obviously waiting for the two of them under the spaceship at the port. This puzzled Gu Ding. The other party would not get anything out of capturing Gu Ding and Liliath.

What was even stranger was that the other party was alone. Logically speaking, the other party would have brought a few of his men to seal off any possible escape routes for Gu Ding and Liliath.

"Do you have any more information about this guy?" Gu Ding asked.

Neptune immediately pulled up his information:

Gu Ding quickly rushed back to the port. The battle between Liliath and the other party was still ongoing, but Senile had been dodging and had not fought back.

Sensing Gu Ding's arrival, Senile waved at Gu Ding. "This little girl's skills are average. Why don't you come along? You might have a chance of winning if the two of you work together."

"As you wish!" Gu Ding blinked at Liliath. As soon as he arrived at the scene, he saw Liliath's bullets flying around aimlessly. He immediately knew that Liliath had deliberately shown weakness in order to stall for time. She had pretended that she could not keep up with the other party's speed so that the other party would let his guard down. In reality, Liliath had never shown her extraordinary marksmanship in the video, so no one knew how good she was.

Just as the corner of Liliath's mouth lifted and she pulled the trigger again, Gu Ding took the opportunity to attack.
