In the vast and boundless universe, a circular object shimmering with a metallic sheen slowly rotated within this starry region. However, this spherical object was not a naturally formed planet, but rather a hollow, artificial metal giant. With a diameter of several hundred kilometers, it was insignificant compared to the Vast Universe, yet such a massive man-made sphere was still larger than a third of an interstellar mothership.
This artificial planet revolved around a colossal cylindrical axis, generating sufficient gravity on its surface. Humanity constructed such an immense interstellar city not for amusement. This was the largest outpost in the Northern District and served as the primary transit hub for interstellar navigation in the area. It was mainly responsible for early warning coordination and acted as the first major defense line against external invasions in the Northern District.
The Shadow Team, in order to ensure operational secrecy, initially boarded a regular patrol ship. However, even a starved camel is bigger than a horse; although the Wavebreaker Legion had suffered significant losses this time, it was unrealistic for this team alone to eliminate the upper echelons of the Wavebreaker Legion. The transit station named Pioneer was primarily controlled by Silver Dragon Star and its allied families, so the Shadow Team chose this location for resupply to maintain confidentiality.
The spacecraft smoothly passed through the defense checks of Pioneer Station, and at that moment, it was nighttime in this artificial interstellar city. Although bustling with activity, the ship appeared relatively inconspicuous.
The patrol ships of the Silver Dragon Guard would not land in ordinary docking areas but instead arrived at a high-security military docking zone.
“Captain, the liaison officer has arrived; we need to proceed with the resupply arrangements!” As soon as the ship stabilized, the burly Hulk approached Ye Yu to remind him, his voice devoid of emotion.
Ye Yu glanced at Hulk's stern face but said nothing. Instead, he gestured for him to follow outside. Although Ye Yu was the overall commander of this operation, these individuals were collaborating with him for the first time and were naturally less inclined to accept his authority.
In the next moment, Ye Yu's figure suddenly blurred and vanished from sight. Hulk felt momentarily bewildered before quickly realizing what had happened. At that instant, an unusual scene unfolded: Hulk's already considerable size seemed to inflate like a balloon, and he transformed into a mountain-like figure as he charged toward the ship's exit! In an instant, the entire spacecraft trembled as if struck by a heavy blow.
“Hulk! You idiot!”
At that moment, a sharp and piercing female voice rang out from somewhere within the ship, slicing through the air like a blade and causing great discomfort to those who heard it.
Meanwhile, Ye Yu had already appeared at the ship's entrance. In the dimly lit docking area stood a figure clad in a black trench coat and wearing a black top hat, blending seamlessly into the shadows. The moment Ye Yu laid eyes on them, he felt an overwhelming sense of gravity and lethal intent.
Ye Yu's heart tightened, but he did not halt his steps and continued toward that person. This place was not accessible to just anyone; naturally, this individual was the liaison officer.
It was only a distance of a few steps, yet Ye Yu felt an overwhelming heaviness in the air. The presence before him exuded an oppressive aura, reminiscent of the stern-faced instructor he had encountered upon entering the Sharp Blade Camp, instilling an involuntary sense of fear.
"Hello, I am Ye Yu, responsible for receiving supplies!" Ye Yu was not the same person he had been before; he quickly steadied his nerves and extended his hand to assert his identity and intentions.
The Trench Coat Man seemed momentarily taken aback before turning away, his voice echoing as he said, "Follow me; the handover procedures are in the office!"
Ye Yu felt a twinge of discomfort but knew he couldn't show hesitation on his first assignment of this nature. He promptly informed Hulk of his whereabouts through the communicator and followed the man.
The sound of military boots striking the metal floor echoed rhythmically, creating an unusual sense of urgency in the dimly lit expanse.
Fortunately, it wasn't long before the Trench Coat Man led Ye Yu into a simple office. Although brightly lit, it was empty. Ye Yu's suspicions grew; while this operation didn't require as many supplies as a large-scale military action, it certainly couldn't be handled by just one person.
Before Ye Yu could voice his concerns, they stepped through the office door. A nagging feeling of unease lingered in Ye Yu's mind, though he couldn't pinpoint its source. Suddenly, a familiar scent pierced his nostrils. In an instant, a loud buzz filled his head—the strong, metallic odor was unmistakably that of blood!
In that moment, realization dawned on Ye Yu. He immediately asked, "What is your name?"
At that instant, a wave of danger washed over him! It felt as if he had plunged into an ice-cold abyss! This sensation was all too familiar to Ye Yu; it was the breath of death!
"You managed to break my nightmare technique; I suppose that makes it worth my while to deal with you personally!" At that moment, the Trench Coat Man turned around, revealing an ugly face with sunken eyes and a flat nose right in front of Ye Yu.
"Who are you?" Ye Yu exclaimed in shock, instinctively asking as he gathered all his strength.
The Trench Coat Man pressed his thin lips together without responding. The next moment, a sleek handgun appeared in his hand—not a common Phase Gun but rather a rare antique firearm!
Ye Yu was momentarily stunned, but he quickly prepared to use the Lightness Technique to evade the bullet. In the next instant, his face was filled with horror as he realized he couldn't move a single muscle! At that moment, Ye Yu discovered that his entire body, except for his thoughts, was completely unresponsive; he couldn't control any part of himself! The threat of death loomed right before him, and yet he was utterly paralyzed!
"Bang—" At the same time, a sound like thunder echoed in Ye Yu's ears. He knew this was the sound of the bullet being fired, the sound of death!
In a life-and-death situation, Ye Yu found himself unable to move. However, with his keen eyesight, he still caught sight of the metallic bullet hurtling toward him. It represented the dazzling brilliance of industrial civilization, as well as the kiss of death from a merciless reaper!
