Chapter 115

The planet, which was covered with primitive forests more than ten billion years ago, was now riddled with holes and traces of war were everywhere. A resource-depleted planet was worthless to the Federal Government, and there was no need to redevelop it. Therefore, the planet became an abandoned planet.

They found the Grey-faced Buzzard. Just as Neptune had predicted, the hull was not damaged. When the spaceship was attacked, the energy shield would automatically activate.

Before nightfall, Oldman, who wanted to keep his loot, decided to destroy the Grey-faced Buzzard. However, it was too late. The only Rank-12 Gene Body in the Witch Tribe was sealed by Gu Ding, and the only Rank-10 Gene Body was killed by Biggie. There were only two Rank-9 Gene Bodies who did not participate in the hunt. Since the curse only had half of its combat effectiveness left, their attacks could not break the Grey-faced Buzzard's energy shield. If they were given enough time, they could exhaust the spaceship's energy. However, they did not have enough time.

Under Neptune's control, the spaceship quickly left the abandoned planet.

Liliath was still in a deep sleep.

Biggie was in a much better mood when he returned to the spaceship. He went straight to the kitchen and quickly got himself busy. It was only when he was cooking that his emotions could be calmed to the greatest extent.

Hearing Biggie humming in the kitchen, Gu Ding knew there was no need to worry about Biggie's condition.

"Any news in the past few days?" The space-time backtracking lasted for three days. During these three days, Neptune was completely blocked and could not receive any news from the outside world. Gu Ding also wanted to know if anything had happened in the past three days.

Neptune, who was connected to Skynet, quickly sifted through all kinds of information and quickly gave an answer. "In the underground network of the Dark World, there's been a big change in this year's Rising Newcomers Ranking. A guy named Nick shot up to sixth place. In just a few days, he killed five people from sixth to tenth place on the ranking. He's now naming you and Lili to challenge. Nick's current bounty is one hundred and ten million. His special ability is speed. Although he's only a Rank-7 Gene Body, he has the speed of a Rank-8 Gene Body. "

"Challenging others to get their ranking? Is that even possible?" Gu Ding raised his eyebrows, but he did not seem to care much about Nick. "Any other news?"

"Didn't the Federation think that the incident on Planet Constlac was caused by that guy named Desteny? Because of that incident, several experts with bounties of more than 500 million Star Coins had joined his team. There was even a swordsman with a bounty of more than 1 billion Star Coins. You should have heard of that swordsman's name, Chiola. Due to the addition of these people, the Federation government believes that Desteny's threat has increased once again, and his bounty has been increased to three billion star coins. "

"Chiorra, an 18-year-old genius swordsman. Hasn't he always been a lone pirate?" Gu Ding was no stranger to the name. Although this fellow was not from Skyriver Sector, Gu Ding had heard of his name before. He was a genius swordsman who had only been an Interstellar Pirate for two years. His reputation as a genius even surpassed that of Kohld Blood.

"He had always been a lone pirate because he felt that he didn't have a suitable partner. He thinks that the 'mastermind' of Planet Constlac's explosion is the partner he wants, "Neptune said with a hint of mockery in his tone.

"In other words, he actually wants to join our team …" Gu Ding was a little speechless about this blunder. "We do need a strong main combatant now, but we can only leave it to fate."

"We'll definitely find him!" Neptune felt very confident. He continued, "There's one more thing I think you should want to know. That guy Kohld Blood has entered Border River. He was attacked by the Army, and a team led by an Army major general was wiped out. The Federation government has determined that he has advanced to a Rank-8 Gene Body, and his bounty has been increased to 1.2 billion Star Coins. "

"He's really fast. He reached Border River so quickly." Gu Ding was a little surprised by his speed.

The so-called Border River referred to the border between one universe and another. Because it was at the border, management was very chaotic, and there were many crooks and honest people mixed together. It was much more dangerous than ordinary star sectors.

"They changed to a White Falcon not long after they left Cerule. They basically traveled in a straight line without any delays." Neptune was not surprised by their speed. "It's normal for them to be faster than us. Once we pass through Mayor Sector, we'll reach Border River."

"Is there any news about Energy Crystals in Mayor Sector?" Gu Ding was more concerned about this question.

"Not yet, but there's a big auction going on there. We'll be there when we arrive, so we can try our luck." Neptune did not leave out any useful information.

"There's nothing else. It's just that the Federation government hasn't been idle during the few days we disappeared." Neptune continued, "They already know that Biggie has joined them. The video of Biggie killing the giant golden crocodile has also gone viral on Skynet. The most discussed part is the part where he dismembered the giant golden crocodile's body with his bare hands. Many people think that Biggie is a Rank-10 Gene Body. Almost everyone in Dragon Soar Cosmic Nation knows that Biggie has joined our team. "

"However, the Federation government seems to be in a wait-and-see state. They haven't directly given out Biggie's bounty or increased your bounty. It might have something to do with us disappearing for the past few days. I'm guessing that the next time we cause trouble, your bounty will increase greatly. "

"Many people in the Dark World are optimistic about you. Some people even started a bet that you have a good chance of becoming the Rookie King of Dragon Soar Cosmic Nation this year."

Hearing this news, Gu Ding grinned and chuckled. He did not express any opinion.

"However, the guy in first place is called Bart. His bounty is already three hundred and eighty million, and his bounty is increasing rapidly. It'll be a little difficult for you to surpass him in a year." Neptune was not trying to dampen Gu Ding's enthusiasm. He was just objectively stating a fact. Based on the current situation, it would be difficult for Gu Ding to become the Rookie King.

"It's more interesting when it's challenging, isn't it?" Gu Ding grinned.
