The Punisher Alliance did not have the financial resources to build a space fortress. The headquarters was a large modified spacecraft docked in the interstellar spaceport, called Punisher. It didn't take long for Fording and his party to reach their destination.
Entering the spaceship, the two followed Raymond to visit everywhere. The cabin of the Punisher is a rotunda-style structure, divided into different functional areas, connected by corridors, shaped like beads.
"This is our base... This is the living area, each member has an exclusive room, I have arranged for you, all kinds of living facilities are complete, you can rest at any time... There is the actual combat training area, go to the other side It’s the equipment warehouse…”
The companions who met on the road nodded to each other, several people stopped and walked, and soon came to an area, Fording turned his head to look at the nameplate of a room, which read "The Booty Exhibition Hall" impressively.
"That's..." Fording pointed to the room, and he intuited that there should be clues in it.
"Oh! That's the glorious proof of our Punisher Alliance." Raymond laughed, "These are the spoils we got from fighting criminals, walk around, I'll show you, and tell you about our glorious deeds. "
A group of people walked into the room, which was quite spacious, filled with transparent showcases, some of which were empty, while the other was filled with different things, including a badly damaged weapon, a half-broken mask, and a piece of charred electronic eyeballs. At first glance, I thought it was a postmodernist-style scrap art exhibition hall.
Raymond led the way and acted as a tour guide, eloquently introducing the origins of various things:
"This is the heavy chainsaw axe of the wanted criminal [Violence] with a bounty of 300,000 Inar. One of our comrades died in this battle..."
"I don't see this electronic eyeball, it's the prosthetic eye of Dr. Poison Heart. He was beaten to pieces, leaving only this high-tech prosthetic eye..."
"Also, it's the warhammer of Bishop Bloodhammer. It's well preserved. Others just put it on..."
Listening to Raymond's explanation, Fording observed the loot carefully while visiting, comparing the pictures Han Xiao gave him in his heart.
Suddenly, Fording paused, his eyes locked on a transparent showcase.
There was a simple white box in the cabinet, about the size of two palms, with some burnt black stains on the surface of the box, which looked unremarkable and unobtrusive.
"What is this?" Fording's eyes flashed with joy, and he pointed to the box.
This is what Han Xiao specified for him to look for.
What, it turned out to be so easy to find, just put it in the warehouse, I thought how difficult it was.
"Let me think about it..." Raymond recalled, clenched his fist and smashed his palm, "Remember, this is the trophy of a surface civilization operation, and there was a guy who relied on high-tech weapons smuggled from interstellar, trying to conquer A surface civilization became a ruler, we received news, went to crusade, and killed this man, from the warehouse of his lair, we found many loot, this box is one of them."
"what's it for?"
Fording was very curious. This time, it was not a pretense. He was also very interested in what Black Star asked for.
"We don't know the principle and origin of it, we only know that if you take him on your body, the mental barrier and the strength of the mind will be improved to a certain extent, but after using it for a long time, the user will have auditory hallucinations, and will feel that someone is in his ear. Speaking, the mind gradually distorted, so we called it [the box of bewitching], and after a companion went mad, we sealed him up..."
Just as he was talking, Raymond's face suddenly became suspicious, "Yeah, we sealed him up, who put this thing in again."
At this moment, Fording, who had been staring at the box, suddenly frowned, and heard a faint whisper in his ear, as if there was a voice that tempted him to touch the box.
With a scan of the mind, a layer of spiritual energy field wraps the box, like an invisible coating, with a certain spiritual defense.
Fording wanted to see what was inside, and used his mind power to form a drill to break through the mental undercurrent field of the box. However, as soon as his mind power touched the box body, he felt a strong suction force. The lost spiritual energy is instantly swallowed by the box, like a mud cow entering the sea, and there is no response.
Seeing this, Raymond waved his hand and said helplessly: "Don't try it, it's useless, our Psychic has already tested it, and Psychic can't detect the situation in the box."
"Can the box be opened normally?"
"Yes, but there is nothing in it." Raymond opened the open cabinet and opened the box directly. It was empty.
At this time, Aurora poked Fording's lower back and made a gesture.
Fording understood immediately, meaning that there was a life signal in the box.
'Black Star will not aim at nothing, what he wants is really weird. '
Fording secretly said.
Raymond put the box back in the showcase and motioned for Fording and the two to continue their visit, and the two of them had no opinion.
…
After visiting the base and getting to know some new members of the Punisher Alliance, Fording and Aurora bid farewell to Raymond and returned to their respective rooms to rest.
After a few hours, the two walked out of the room again and went straight to the loot exhibition room.
Most of the spoils in the exhibition room are only commemorative, and the vigilance equipment is relatively low-level. Aurora took out a legion-style automated intrusion device and was about to insert it into the interface of the door of the room, but was stopped by Fording.
"You just walked in like this? It will trigger the alarm." Aurora wondered.
"I know."
Fording said slowly: "Black Star wants what they have, they have no power to fight back, I don't like to bully the weak, not to mention that they are not a group of villains, even if they want to take it, at least let them know the reason, I don't want to sneak Without saying goodbye."
"This is not good, what if Black Star has another meaning?" Aurora hesitated.
To be honest, in fact, she also felt that it seemed a bit of a loss for such a small force to steal things as two people.
"He didn't make a special request, that is, no, even if there was... he would only blame me."
Fording smiled lightly, walked in openly, and grabbed the box of bewitching directly in his hand.
Didi
He ignored the piercing alarm sound that suddenly sounded, took Aurora, and swaggered to the gate of the base spaceship.
The way was unobstructed, and when I came to the cabin door, I saw Raymond, Sally and a group of Punisher Alliance members guarding here, looking at the two with a complicated expression.
"Why did you steal the Bewitching Box?" Raymond's face was a little painful, and he didn't want to believe the scene in front of him.
Sally gritted his teeth and said coldly, "I almost trusted you! You really have ulterior motives!"
"Maybe they were just distorted by the box of Bewitching..." Raymond had no confidence and could only stare at Fording with complicated eyes, with faint expectations in his eyes.
"Sorry." Fording shook his head, facing the angry eyes of everyone, calmly said: "I came for this thing."
"So it was planned to save me?" Raymond couldn't help asking.
"I said it was luck, do you believe it?" Fording was helpless.
At this time, Sally came out of the crowd, pulled out his weapon, pointed at the two, and shouted: "I said, as long as I find out that you have ulterior motives, I will not be polite to you, since you have admitted it yourself, or immediately confuse them. Put down the box, give up resistance, or come and see if my weapon is powerful enough!"
Looking at the excited crowd calmly, Fording said slowly:
"During the battle at the Ainia hub, Euler and I saved you more than once, you... really want to fight with us?"
Hearing this, everyone's anger suddenly stagnated.
Yes, if it weren't for the healing power, they would have been seriously damaged in the Ainya hub. It is not an exaggeration to say that they saved all their lives. Although these two people have ulterior motives, the kindness is real...
Most of the people showed embarrassment, lost their fighting spirit in an instant, and it was difficult to raise hostility.
The same is true for Sally, he immediately got rid of this mentality, he was cruel, clenched the weapon in his hand, and said solemnly: "One yard is one yard, you are going to steal the box of bewitching now, that is, to be our enemy, We won't let you go!"
Fording glanced at everyone, suddenly smiled slightly, rolled up the corners of his clothes, and sat down on the ground.
"Okay, then I'm not leaving."
Everyone was stunned.
What does this mean, just kidding
"What are you doing?" Raymond was surprised.
"Wait for someone to answer." With this sentence, Fording closed his eyes and closed his eyes.
"You really have a personality." Aurora on the side looked helpless, glanced at the dazed people, and said weakly: "What are you still holding a weapon, do you really want to attack me?"
Sally's face was gloomy and uncertain. After thinking about it, he still didn't shoot directly. He simply put away his weapons and called everyone to prepare for the response, while he stared at Fording and monitored any of his actions.
Just as everyone was getting ready and their vigilance was at their highest, the hatch suddenly slid open automatically, and a black figure with a bunch of men stood under the gangway.
Everyone in the Punisher Alliance hurriedly turned around and glanced at it, and everyone was stunned!
It turned out to be the Black Star Legion who once had a relationship, and the leader was Black Star himself!
"You, you..." Raymond's eyes widened and he looked shocked.
Han Xiao glanced at him, stepped into the cabin with the guard, and walked straight to Fording.
The members of the Punisher Alliance hurriedly gave way, with a strong look of shock on their faces... How could it be Black Star? What's the situation now!
Looking down at Fording sitting on the ground, Han Xiao was a little helpless, "For such a trivial matter, I have to trouble me to come forward in person, stop playing."
Fording smiled, patted his butt, stood up, and said softly, "You know my character."
"Yeah, I knew it when I was in Sunil." Han Xiao rubbed his brows helplessly, and joked: "You are so messy that I won't dare to reuse you in the future."
"Things have priorities. I don't want to lower my bottom line step by step for such trivial matters. Besides, you shouldn't let me do theft." Fording blinked.
"It really doesn't let me worry, it's hard to be lazy." Han Xiao supported his forehead.
People's minds change, such protagonists have their own principles, and they can't use them without restrictions, as if they can't show their extraordinaryness without causing some accidents.
Listening to the conversation between the two, everyone's eyes turned back and forth on Black Star and Fording, and their faces were horrified.
"Who are you?!" Sally was a little flustered and couldn't help but ask, but his tone was no longer as tough as before.
Hardaway looked over, clicked his tongue, and said, "His name is Fording, the deputy captain of the Black Star Guard."
Hearing this, Sally froze all over.
He couldn't believe that the person he had been with during this period of time turned out to be such a person!
Such a big man, killing him is like crushing an ant. It's ridiculous that I thought Fording was afraid of their crowds. I didn't expect that they were too lazy to care about them. I guess looking at them is like looking at children.
Sally's face was blue and white, thinking of how tough he was on Fording just now, and his heart was shocked and hot.
At this time, Han Xiao spoke.
"Okay, since you want them to know why..."
Turning his head and looking at the crowd, Han Xiao directly sucked the Bewitching Box into his hand, and with his five fingers, he smashed the hard box into pieces.
"what"
Everyone present felt that the moment the box shattered, a tyrannical mental wave burst out.
Most of the members of the Punisher Alliance suddenly turned pale, covering their different auditory organs, and the harsh screams in their minds caused mental damage to them.
The shriek of the soul that sounded in my mind was filled with excitement and excitement, as if someone who had been imprisoned for many years finally saw the light of day again!
