Chapter 157

Sharp fell silent when he heard Gu Ding's words. He did not want to hear any threats from Gu Ding's mouth, but he knew what Gu Ding's gaze meant. 'If you don't let me go, I can control your Golden Eagle to wreak havoc on this planet. I can destroy dozens of cities in one night and kill hundreds of millions of people.'

"Let them go." A voice came from afar. Sharp and Gu Ding looked in that direction at the same time. It was a long-bearded old man in a wheelchair. Sharp and Gu Ding recognized him. He was Nisoth.

"Senior." Sharp and Emily replied respectfully. The Federation Government had always been courteous to the Holy Gospel Tribe because they had helped the Federation Government through many crises.

"You know very well what the consequences will be if you don't let him go. You just don't want to admit it," Nisoth looked at the sorrowful Gu Ding and spoke to Sharp and Emily again. "If there's a massacre on this planet, it's not something you can handle alone, Sharp."

"But the reinforcements will be here tomorrow …" Emily was still unwilling to give up.

"I told Howell from the beginning not to approve this operation. However, he told me that he didn't expect to capture everyone in one go. He just wanted to capture a few of them with a bit of fame to put on a show for Faye Cosmic Nation. This was wrong from the beginning, but under your guidance, it's getting more and more out of hand. If this continues, it will only lead to irreparable consequences. I can't stand it anymore, that's why I'm here to mediate. "Nisoth had expected this outcome from the beginning. "If you continue to be in this stalemate, it won't do either side any good. Moreover, according to one of the possibilities I saw, after the reinforcements arrive, all the Interstellar Pirates here will be wiped out, including Gu Ding's crew. However, all the Army spaceships were controlled by a strange force and attacked the planet in a frenzy. In one night, everyone on the planet, including you and the reinforcements, were killed along with Gu Ding. Not a single one of them survived. Although I don't know how Gu Ding did it, this outcome can't be wrong. "

Gu Ding only sneered when he heard this. If his crew died, Neptune would definitely take revenge.

Sharp and Emily looked at Gu Ding in disbelief when they heard Nisoth's words.

"I understand. But if we let them go so easily, we won't be able to explain it to them. We've lost at least one billion Universe Credits in this war, including the pension for the families of the soldiers who died, the destroyed spaceships, and the compensation for the business losses of those organizations. " Xia Pu also knew that if he failed the mission, the cost alone would definitely make the King and Marshal furious, not to mention failing the mission.

"A billion Universe Credits. That's nothing to you, Gu Ding, right?" Nisoth looked at Gu Ding. He had spent tens of billions of Universe Credits on the magic staff.

"I'll pay for this. Will you let everyone leave safely?" No one knew that Gu Ding was so rich.

For example, the Lord of Dragon Soar Cosmic Nation's annual income was less than two hundred million Universe Credits. One billion Universe Credits, after deducting expenses, would take him seven to eight years to save up. It had not even been half a year since Gu Ding debuted, yet he was already so rich. Many people began to suspect Gu Ding's identity. Only Nisoth knew how Gu Ding got the money, but he had no intention of telling the others.

"According to Senior, we don't have a second choice. Drive the Golden Eagle to a nearby planet, dock the spaceship at the port, and then find another spaceship to leave. Don't even think about driving the Golden Eagle away. This spaceship has the Army's serial number on it, so we can find its location. Moreover, this is my personal spaceship. I'm only lending it to you temporarily. Don't damage anything inside … "

"Sell this Golden Eagle to me." Gu Ding's words shocked quite a few people.

Even the lowest configuration Golden Eagle cost at least one billion Universe Credits on the market. Xia Pu's spaceship was obviously old, but it would not be cheap for Xia Pu to sell it.

"I've checked. This is a model that the Army retired thirteen years ago. It was manufactured thirty-three years ago. Ten years ago, Xia Pu bought it at half price, which was five hundred million Universe Credits. He paid in installments. This spaceship has been around for almost ten years, and he has paid less than three hundred million for it. Moreover, once he leaves, he won't be able to afford the subsequent payments for this spaceship. The Army will only refund him half of the money he has already paid. Therefore, he probably wants to sell this spaceship. "Neptune quickly found out about the Golden Eagle.

"You can buy it if you want. Eight hundred million Universe Credits!" For the past few days, Xia Pu had been thinking about how he could sell the spaceship for more than six hundred million Universe Credits. Now that Gu Ding wanted to buy it, he deliberately increased the price by two hundred million.

Everyone thought that Xia Pu would reject Gu Ding's purchase without hesitation, especially the people from the Army. They knew that Xia Pu cherished the spaceship very much and would never sell it. They did not expect Xia Pu to directly quote a price.

"You bought it for five hundred million, and now you're selling it to me for eight hundred million. Do you think that's a good idea?" Gu Ding looked at Xia Pu and blinked twice. He then continued, "Moreover, this spaceship is only a low-spec model from thirty-three years ago. It was only sold for one billion Universe Credits back then. It's not even the first generation, so it has no commemorative value. If I buy a brand new one now, it'll only cost one billion Universe Credits. Or, I can go to the black market and find one for six or seven hundred million. "

"How much do you want then?" Xia Pu blushed. He had never been good at bargaining.

"Six point five." Gu Ding stared into Xia Pu's eyes. He knew that the price was within Xia Pu's expectations.

"Six point seven!" Xia Pu tried to add a year's salary to the price Gu Ding had quoted, although he was not sure if Gu Ding would agree.

"Deal!" Gu Ding was not in the mood to bargain with Lilliath due to her current condition. In fact, Lilliath was the one who did the bargaining every time he needed to buy something in the past.

"You should have a way to get rid of the Army's serial number, right? Also, you'll have to repaint the surface. If I find out that you're using the Army's name to swindle people, I'll definitely hunt you down. " Xia Pu reluctantly looked at the Golden Eagle that had accompanied him for more than ten years. The ship still had the Dragon Soar Cosmic Nation's Army's mark.

"If I enter Border River with the Army's mark, I'll only bring more trouble to myself." Gu Ding had heard that Border River was a mixed bag of good and bad people. Many people looked down on the Army and would even take the initiative to provoke them.

Many Interstellar Pirates, including Bard, looked at Gu Ding worriedly when they saw that Gu Ding had bought the Golden Eagle. If Gu Ding did not bring them along with him this time, he would be in jail the next morning.

Gu Ding asked Neptune to transfer 1.67 billion Universe Credits to Xia Pu's designated account. Then, he waved at everyone. "Everyone, get on the spaceship!"

Robert also asked a combat robot to carry Biggie onto the spaceship.

Just as Bard was about to board the spaceship, Xia Pu suddenly appeared in front of him. "Hey, you seem to have forgotten something."

Bard was stunned when he heard this. He reluctantly took out Xia Pu's sword from his Storage Ring and threw it to Xia Pu.

After receiving his long sword, Xia Pu moved aside.

Seeing that Gu Ding was about to leave, Nisoth called out to him. "Gu Ding, there's a huge temple on a planet in Border River. Find a man with scriptures carved on his body on that planet. He should be able to help Liliath."

Hearing Nisoth's words, Gu Ding quickly turned around and bowed slightly at Nisoth. "Thank you very much!"

After receiving this hint, Neptune immediately began to search. Soon, he found the planet that Nisoth had mentioned — Tampa. With the Golden Eagle's speed, they would arrive in about two days.

After boarding the spaceship, Gu Ding closed the hatch and placed Liliath on the sofa. He took a tube of blood from her arm and let Neptune do a test.

After doing this, he stood up and looked at the hundreds of other Interstellar Pirates in the huge cabin. "I'll send everyone to the nearest administrative planet, then you can leave on your own. Based on the current situation, escaping into Border River is the safest option. I predict that when the reinforcements arrive tomorrow, there might still be people coming after you. "

The Golden Eagle quickly took off and left Great Divinity's port.

Seeing the Golden Eagle leave, Xia Pu was clearly a little sad. However, he soon noticed that Nisoth, who was in a wheelchair, had not left. He could not help but ask, "Senior, why are you still on this planet after so many days?"

"You still have the cheek to ask me this question? I attended the auction until the last day. You sealed off the port on the night the auction ended. I couldn't leave even if I wanted to." Nisoth looked at the two of them with a straight face. "Besides, my White Falcon was destroyed by this little girl today. I don't even know if it can be repaired. I plan to go with you to the Army headquarters tomorrow. "

"Senior, what are you going to the headquarters for?" Emily asked cautiously. She was a little worried that Nisoth would tell on her to the marshal.

"To explain what happened today to him in person, of course. What do you think I'm going to do?" Nisoth pretended to be angry. "Tell on you for the sake of a spaceship? I can't do something like that. Even if I did that, the most Howell would do is call you over and reprimand me in front of him. He's such a miser that he probably won't even pay me a single cent for the spaceship's repair costs. "

Xia Pu and Emily did not say a word. However, they were laughing in their hearts. 'The word miser is the most appropriate way to describe the marshal …'
