Chapter 414

Under normal circumstances, when a currency's value reached more than ten billion, it would be replaced with a higher-level currency. Just like wanted criminals with a bounty of more than ten billion Universe Crystals, their bounties would be measured in terms of source stones.

One source stone was equivalent to ten thousand Universe Crystals. Therefore, wanted criminals whose bounties were measured in source stones had actual bounties of more than a million source stones. Any crew with such a wanted criminal was considered a first-class crew in the Cosmic Sea. Such wanted criminals were also known as Class-A wanted criminals by the Federal Government, and their danger rating was above four stars.

Although Gu Ding's crew did not have any members whose bounties were measured in source stones, Gu Ding, as the captain, was infinitely close to that standard with a bounty of 9.8 billion Universe Crystals. There was also Tagore's 9.5 billion and Biggie's 9 billion … With such bounties, even if there was only one person, he would still be at the top of a second-tier crew.

Tagore's bounty had skyrocketed to second only to Gu Ding's. The Federal Government had probably gotten the corresponding information from the TOP2 Clark.

Gu Ding had been paying attention to Kohld Blood's information. Although Kohld Blood, who came from the Dragon Soar Universe, was not as famous as Gu Ding, he had always been ahead of Gu Ding. Even after Gu Ding's bounty had exceeded it, he had overtaken it several times.

After entering the Cosmic Sea, his Adjudicator Pirates had not been quiet. Although they had not made any big news, they had entered the Cosmic Sea two to three months earlier than Gu Ding's crew, and had experienced a lot of small fights. Kohld Blood's cultivation had reached Medium Deity, and his combat effectiveness was also at the level of a Higher Deity. His bounty was also as high as three million source stones, which was thirty billion Universe Crystals. This was the main reason he was a TOP2 target.

In the Cosmic Sea, Class-A wanted criminals were divided into three levels: A-, A, and A +.

Wanted criminals with a bounty of one million to ten million source stones belonged to A-. Wanted criminals of this level had at least Medium Deity combat effectiveness and were usually taken care of by TOP2 members.

It could be said that the people of the TOP organization were determined to capture the Adjudicator Pirates who had sent out three regular TOP2 members at once.

Wanted criminals with a price of 10 million to 100 million Source Stones belonged to the A-rank category. Wanted criminals of this level all had the battle prowess of a higher deity at the very least. When it came to a wanted criminal of this level, the TOP organization would consider whether they needed regular TOP2 members to take him down. If they couldn't, then they would send out TOP3 members.

As for fugitives worth more than 100 million source stones, they belonged to the A + level. Fugitives of this level were basically experts with a five-star danger index and possessed the battle prowess of an extreme deity. It was up to the regular members of the TOP3 or TOP4 to take action.

Above A-rank was S-rank. Wanted criminals of this level were existences that had broken through the barrier of the gods. The Divine Barrier had a total of nine barriers. Only experts who could break through all nine barriers could become True Gods. However, the number of people who could break through the nine barriers could be counted on one hand. Any powerhouse who had broken through the barrier was not someone a Supreme Deity could contend with. That was because even a powerhouse who had only broken through the first god-level barrier would have combat prowess 10,000 times that of a Five-star Supreme Deity. With every subsequent breakthrough, his battle prowess would increase by a hundredfold.

Every powerhouse who had broken through the god-level barrier was extremely powerful. Even the Federal Government would not easily make a move on them because almost every one of them held a huge interstellar empire in their hands. Moreover, every one of them was a pillar of humanity in the Grand Cosmic Sea.

Gu Ding, on the other hand, was currently a B-rank wanted criminal at best. The highest bounty he had to achieve was at least S-rank, or even higher. There was still a long journey in between.

Knowing that Kohld Blood's Adjudicator Pirates were almost wiped out by the TOP2, Gu Ding's desire to improve his strength became even more urgent. He did not leave Robert's domain for many days.

Neptune naturally told the others about the increase in the bounty and the news about Kohld Blood.

Lilliath and the others were excited, but they were also a little worried.

Everyone had seen Clark's strength in the Helen ruins. However, Clark's strength was not enough to occupy a regular spot in the TOP2. One could imagine how terrifying the strength of the nine people who occupied the regular spots in the TOP2 was. If it was really a regular member of the TOP2, there would be no need for three people at all. One person would probably be able to destroy Gu Ding's crew.

Everyone who sensed the danger went back into cultivation mode.

In the main cabin of the spaceship, only Tagore and Bru were left. The two of them had the most comfortable life every day. All they did was eat and sleep.

Tagore did not need to cultivate at all. He only needed to devour enough flesh and blood energy to improve his strength. Therefore, he reluctantly became Bru's nanny and was responsible for feeding it ores and vegetable leaves every day.

Tagore did not want to eat vegetable leaves. He was a complete carnivore. As for various energy ores, he used to eat them, but they did not have much effect now. They were far less effective than flesh and blood energy. Therefore, there was no competition between the two.

Although Tagore had eaten a lot these days, his body size had not changed much. Bru, on the other hand, did not grow in size. His original ellipsoid body had developed horizontally in the direction of a sphere. If Gu Ding and the others were to touch him, they would definitely feel better than before.

After the Federal Government set the bounty on Gu Ding's crew, they quickly began to select candidates to stop Gu Ding's crew.

"This time, let the little guys from the TOP1 go," Bahrain said indifferently.

"But Marshal, according to the information sent back by Clark and the others, several members of Gu Ding's crew have combat effectiveness close to that of a higher deity. I'm afraid the regular members of the TOP1 are no match for them. "A director of the TOP organization expressed concern.

"Most of Gu Ding's crew members are also Lower Deities, and there are even demigods. Let the little guys from the TOP1 fight and see the gap between them and the real powerhouses." Bahrain also knew that every member of the TOP organization was a monster. Therefore, it was inevitable that some members would be arrogant. It might not be a bad thing to let them suffer a setback.

"That's true. It won't be a good 'training' effect if they keep winning." Another director agreed with this idea.

"Then it's settled!" Bahrain said as he turned his head to look at Reid. "Reid, help them analyze the possible locations of Gu Ding's crew for the next few days. Don't worry about anything else."

"Yes, Marshal!"

…

A group of teenagers gathered in a conference room on the first floor of the TOP organization.

Standing in the middle was Reid, and beside him was a three-dimensional starry sky projection. Among the teenagers gathered in a circle, there were a few with arrogant expressions. It was obvious that they did not think much of Reid.

"I've studied the route of Gu Ding's crew for a few days. They set off from Planet Hellen from the shallow sea to the deep sea. After their bounty increased, they must know that we'll send people to stop them. Therefore, they won't pass through the area under our jurisdiction. After leaving Buckner's area, there are a few nearby areas that are also under our sphere of influence. This is Charnley District, Caudle District, and Baiford District. They probably won't stop there. "

"As for Abigail, he's a member of the Freedom Alliance. The area under his jurisdiction is a Free Zone. There's an eighty percent chance that Gu Ding's crew will land there. There's a ninety-five percent chance that the planet they land on will be Abigail's base, Norman. That's because there aren't many people who will cause trouble here … "

"Wait a minute. Beside Abigail's area, there are two areas under Belorme and Barnett's jurisdiction. Both of them are Interstellar Pirates. Why do you think Gu Ding won't go to their area?" A teenager with his arms crossed interrupted Reid's speech.

"The relationship between Interstellar Pirates isn't as harmonious as we think it is. It's not that it's impossible for two crews to get along, but under normal circumstances, when two crews of Interstellar Pirates come together, one of them will be robbed. Although Belorme and Barnett are both semi-retired, Gu Ding's crew probably won't choose their area because the Freedom Alliance is known to be friendly. There's no need for them to take the risk. "

"Reid, I heard that you're good friends with Gu Ding. Don't tell me you're trying to trick us to another area so that Gu Ding and his crew can escape? "Another teenager asked with a smile.

"There's no need for that." Reid's expression did not change at all. He said slowly, "Because Gu Ding's crew is far stronger than yours. It'll be lucky if your crew doesn't get wiped out in this operation."

Everyone was stunned by Reid's rebuttal.

"I've already told you the location. My mission is complete. Good luck." Reid had wanted to give them some advice, but seeing how arrogant they were, he simply turned around and walked out of the conference room.

"Traitors!" The teenager who was the leader scolded angrily.

"I met Gu Ding's crew a few months ago. They're really strong," a ponytailed girl in the crowd said with a slight frown.

"Karsi, you weren't in a regular seat a few months ago, so it's normal for you to feel that they're strong. You're now a regular member of our TOP1, so you don't have to be afraid of them at all, "the teenager who was the leader said with a disdainful smile. "They must have been lucky to be able to kill that Higher Deity called Wayne."

Karsi did not say anything more. She knew that no matter what she said, her colleagues would not listen to her. Wasting her breath would only annoy them. However, she could not help but feel a little worried. "Gu Ding's crew already had that kind of strength a few months ago. They must have gotten stronger after a few months …"

…

Inside the Titan battleship, Gu Ding suddenly opened his eyes. "Neptune, why does it feel like we've been traveling for many days this time? Where's our next stop? "

"Our next stop is the Freedom Alliance's Abigail station, Norman. We'll arrive in four days."
