Lao Wang looked at Li Xuan and asked, "What do you say? Do you want to experience how humans fight?"

Li Xuan shook his head.

It’s not that he was afraid, but he felt that this kind of internal friction was very unwise.

With the threat of three major natural disasters ahead, internal stability should be given priority no matter what the situation.

However, there are extraordinary powers in this world, and the law of the jungle is the most basic rule.

Everything is decided with fists.

The three major forces have too lax attitudes towards local areas, which has led to many planets not strictly implementing central policies.

Just like the planet where Li Xuan is, it has basically been abandoned by the main star. There is chaos there, but the local people are used to it.

After Li Xuan expressed his stance, Old Wang seemed to see something and offered words of comfort, "The human race is so self-contradictory. Even if they are facing extermination, they will not forget their internal struggles. However, the situation on Haiqi Star is a historical issue."

Hawkeye took over the conversation, "In the final analysis, it's because the Xingqi Empire doesn't have enough influence on the border, otherwise those pirates wouldn't be able to settle down on Haiqi Star."

Finally, Lao Wang made a decision: "Actually, the reward this time is pretty good. It depends on our contribution. I've decided to take on this commission."

"What do you think?"

The other team members nodded in agreement.

"it is good!"

After Lao Wang confirmed the attitudes of the team members, he began to operate.

Soon, a prompt indicating that the order was successfully accepted appeared on the screen.

"Everyone get ready, we're about to start the jump!"

Lao Wang sat in his seat and gave a reminder.

"Let's go, don't just stand there!" Hawkeye grabbed Li Xuan and brought him to his seat.

"What's the point?"

Hawkeye explained, "During the jump, we might encounter some bumps, which is unavoidable. We'll just sit there for a while. Don't worry, it'll be quick!"

Li Xuan followed suit and sat down.

As Lao Wang pressed the start button, the hull of the Black Edge S1 spacecraft began to fade and then disappeared from the spot in an instant.

Li Xuan was sitting on the sofa. The moment he jumped, he felt as if his soul had left his body. His vision suddenly became wide and blurry, and he felt as if he was about to ascend to heaven.

Fortunately, this feeling disappeared after the jump.

Hawkeye beside him asked with a grin, "How is it? The jump feels good, right?"

Li Xuan shook his head uncomfortably and said, "It's a terrible feeling, worse than motion sickness!"

"That's normal. I vomited during my first jump. You're doing really well!"

Li Xuan came back to his senses and looked at the front of the cab. A cold gray planet was getting bigger and bigger.

At first it was only the size of a sesame seed, but after just a few seconds, it became the size of a watermelon.

Lao Wang left his seat and said to everyone present, "The planet ahead is Haiqi Star, where our mission is located. Due to some reasons, the ecological environment here has been irreversibly damaged."

In this regard, Li Xuan raised his own question: "If that's the case, why do people still live on this planet?"

Old Wang sighed and said, "Originally, the Xingqi Empire wanted to restore Haiqi Star and had even begun to relocate some areas. But unexpectedly, the Omnic Scourge struck, and the pirates seized the opportunity to capture some areas."

"The Xingqi Empire was too busy to take care of itself and couldn't take the initiative to eliminate these pirates. Only the remaining immigrants who had just started to fight against the pirates were left."

Li Xuan suddenly realized, "So those people hired you to wipe out the space pirates?"

Old Wang nodded and said, "You can't really call it a wipeout. After so many years, the pirates have retired and most have become part of the Haiqi Star. They call themselves the Resistance and are fighting against the first batch of immigrants."

While they were talking, they had already arrived at the coordinates provided by the client and were preparing to land.

The performance of the Black Blade S1 is obviously higher than the ordinary spacecraft provided by the Dome Light Mercenary Group. In addition, they are relatively close, so they are the first to arrive at the destination.

Although the war continues, the government forces still retain a complete port here.

After landing, Li Xuan followed Lao Wang's team off the spacecraft.

Next to the port, there was already a group of armed soldiers stationed nearby. Surrounded by the army, a well-dressed man stood in the middle, welcoming the arrival of the mercenaries.

When he saw Lao Wang getting off the spaceship, he immediately went to greet him with a smile on his face. "Welcome to the Qiongguang Mercenary Group. Thank you for your hard work on coming all the way here. We have prepared delicious food and wine. You can all rest for a while."

Lao Wang shook hands with him and said with a smile, "Then I'd rather obey you than be disrespectful!"

Although they do things for money, the Qiongguang Mercenary Group is well-known in the universe, and every employer will go to great lengths to entertain them.

Li Xuan followed the team and walked into an extremely luxurious hotel. This hotel was also one of the few brightly colored buildings in the surrounding area.

Everyone walked into the hall, where the tables were filled with all kinds of delicacies, and there were good-looking waiters beside them, both handsome men and beautiful women.

This was the first time Li Xuan attended such a luxurious banquet.

Maybe it was because of the difference in the planets, but Li Xuan had never seen any of the dishes here.

"Everyone, please enjoy your visit. Once the distinguished guests from other mercenary groups arrive, we can begin the mission the next day. As for the mission details, we will announce them once everyone is gathered."

Lao Wang nodded in agreement, "Okay."

Then, the man left the hall, leaving the rest of the team behind.

Li Xuan didn't hesitate to pick up the meat on the table and started eating.

Lao Wang and the other members of the team were not as anxious as Li Xuan, but they also tasted some.

But after they finished eating, they all frowned and spit out what they had eaten.

Li Xuan stopped eating and asked doubtfully, "Is there something wrong with these things?"

Lao Wang shook his head and then nodded.

Li Xuan: “?”

"It's not that we can't eat it. These meats are all synthetic and we can't get used to them," Hawkeye explained.

"Ah? But I feel it's okay." Li Xuan said and took another bite.

To be honest, Li Xuan really didn't feel anything wrong with the meat. He had eaten rotten meat when he was in the slums, and the taste was incomparable to this synthetic meat.

After Li Xuan finished two plates of meat dishes, the waiter quickly cleared the empty plates and began to replace them with new dishes.

Other teams from the Qiongguang Mercenary Group began to enter the hall one after another.

Among them was someone Lao Wang knew.

They gathered together very naturally, drinking purple-red wine, chatting and laughing heartily, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

As the number of people increased, the originally spacious hall became crowded.
