"Thank you for saving me from prison, but I cannot help you. I do not need money. I am going to find Ronan to avenge my wife and child!"
After understanding the full story, Drax replied while gnawing on a lamb leg.
Rocket, upon hearing this, mocked:
"You can find Ronan for revenge after getting the money. That way, you can buy more weapons to protect yourself and not die too miserably."
Who is Ronan? He is the infamous Accuser of the Kree Empire, one of the most powerful Kree.
Moreover, he also possesses the Dark Aster, which strikes fear into the Nova Empire, one of the most powerful Universe battleships, carrying countless ghost spacecraft.
Want to kill him?
Even the Nova Empire cannot do it. For this simpleton in front of him, it is simply suicide.
"No, I cannot wait. I am going now. I will tear him in half!"
Drax roared furiously.
His Planet was located midway between the Milky Way Galaxy and the Large Magellanic Cloud. Because he refused to be involved in the war between the Nova Empire and the Kree Empire, Ronan led the Kree army and directly flattened it.
His wife and daughter, as well as all the people of his Planet, died at Ronan's hands.
Only he survived because of his thick skin.
Therefore, he did not care about anything. His only thought now was to seek revenge on Ronan, to tear Ronan in half with his own hands.
"Then let us do this: we will go find Ronan first, and after killing Ronan, we will attend to my business."
Adam said indifferently.
Anyway, the Nova Empire and the Kree Empire were currently in a heated war, and interstellar news reported daily on some of their battles.
And the infamous Accuser, Ronan, was currently on that battlefield, so he would not be hard to find.
Spending one more day to go and capture Ronan to avenge Drax would not be much trouble.
"What, Master, you are not joking, are you?"
Hearing Adam's words, Drax's eyes lit up, while Star-Lord and Rocket looked incredulous.
That was a battlefield where two empires were fighting, with countless interstellar battleships and combat spacecraft. Not to mention going in to capture Ronan, just being accidentally caught in it would inevitably mean no trace of their bodies would be left.
"Do I look like I am joking?"
Adam spread his hands.
Star-Lord and Rocket exchanged glances, then both said simultaneously:
"Is it still not too late for us to quit now?"
Money was certainly important, but life was even more important. If their lives were gone, no amount of money would be useful.
This was different from before in Kyln Prison.
In that prison, even if the rescue was unsuccessful, they could most likely retreat, with a success rate higher than fifty percent.
But now, going to the battlefield to capture Ronan, the success rate was absolutely Zero, with no possibility at all; it was an act of suicide.
"Of course, it is not too late. I never like to force others!"
Adam smiled upon hearing this, then said to Orion, who had been standing by serving:
"There seems to be an asteroid belt nearby. Let us stop for a moment and open a skylight for some fresh air."
Orion nodded. The sky above them suddenly split in two, revealing a huge opening, and outside the opening was the endless Universe and countless asteroids.
"This stretch of asteroids looks a bit unsightly!"
Adam slowly stood up, putting down the lamb he was holding, then stretched, bringing his hands together:
"Kamehameha~~~"
A powerful energy burst forth from Adam's hands, directly striking the long asteroid belt outside through the opening of the spacecraft.
The dazzling light made Star-Lord and the others involuntarily close their eyes.
When they opened their eyes again, they were astonished to find that the asteroid belt that had just been there had now disappeared.
"I never force others to do things, but when I see something unsightly, I cannot help but clean them up. This looks much better.
Orion, let us continue!"
"Yes, Master!"
Orion restored the sky above to its original state.
At this moment, Adam looked down at Star-Lord and Rocket Raccoon, who were sitting there stunned:
"By the way, what did you just say? You said you wanted to quit, right?"
"No, no… no, absolutely not. Even if there is no money, we absolutely want to help you.
When you are out and about, more friends mean more paths. This is one of my principles as an interstellar thief!"
Star-Lord wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and quickly nodded in reply.
He was afraid that if he refused now, he would evaporate and disappear just like that asteroid field.
"I agree with the Star-Lord kid."
Rocket replied similarly.
He felt that since Adam was so powerful, then capturing Ronan no longer seemed impossible.
So, agreeing now was the best choice.
Moreover, even if he himself was not afraid of death, he still had to consider Groot's safety.
"I am Groot."
Groot's meaning was that Rocket's decision was his decision.
"Since everyone is so enthusiastic, then let us depart and go to the battlefield to capture Ronan."
Adam nodded with satisfaction:
"Do not worry, the reward for the mission will not be shortchanged to you."
"Master, may I ask what exactly is the mission you want us to do?"
Star-Lord asked somewhat nervously.
Judging by how Adam casually talked about capturing Ronan, the mission Adam wanted their help with might be even more dangerous.
"Well, I will tell you after we capture Ronan."
Adam shrugged:
"Alright, if you are done eating and want to rest, you can find a room yourself. There are many rooms here. I am going to train."
After saying that, he left to exercise in the Gravity Chamber.
Time was precious and could not be wasted.
And seeing Adam leave, Star-Lord suddenly had a bad premonition. He felt that the mission Adam wanted their help with might be even more terrifying than he imagined.
"Brother, please have some lamb leg. I misunderstood you just now!"
Drax handed his half-eaten lamb leg to Star-Lord, who had not yet recovered.
Star-Lord immediately said, speechless:
"Firstly, these lamb legs were treated by the Master, and have nothing to do with you.
Secondly, why would you hand me your half-eaten lamb leg, and it even has your saliva on it?"
"Where I come from, two people eating the same food means reconciliation."
Drax said earnestly.
Star-Lord rolled his eyes upon hearing this:
"I will never eat someone else's saliva, unless she is a beauty!"
"A third-rate thief whose mind is only on women, and a muscle-bound idiot. I am starting to lose hope for this mission."
Rocket Raccoon watched Star-Lord and Drax bickering about the saliva issue and could not help but shake his head.
Thus, the few of them fell into an argument.
And the spacecraft, under Orion's control, passed through one jump point after another, rapidly flying towards the battle point between the two armies in the middle of the Milky Way Galaxy and the Large Magellanic Cloud.
If fast, the spacecraft would reach its destination in half a day.
