Chapter 1037: Chapter 811 Fair Trade_2

The two red-skinned aliens who were stealthily sneaking to the back of the spaceship in an attempt to hide were instantly grabbed by Tao Yu’s AT field that morphed with a single thought. They were locked in place, hovering in front of him.

“Let go of me, you wizard!”

“We are under Habi’s command, if you dare to…”

Before one of them could finish his threat, the AT field collapsed, reducing him to a coagulated blob of blood the size of a ping-pong ball.

Then, clank~

A loud sound echoed as the blood ball hit the floor heavily, leaving a shallow dent in the rocky surface.

The red-skinned man who had started talking first immediately froze, his eyes turning green with fear as he stared at the dense blood orb now lying on the ground. He couldn’t help but swallow nervously.

“What? Thinking about eating it?”

“No, no, no! Esteemed one, I meant no disrespect earlier, alright? We just saw that this spaceship model looked foreign and quite valuable, so we came to assess the owner’s strength, that’s all.”

The red-skinned man stammered incoherently, his words stumbling over themselves.

“Oh? And then what, after you assess the strength?”

“Well, if the ship lacks proper defenses, there are… appropriate rules for dealing with it. But clearly, you don’t fall into that category, esteemed one. I’m very familiar with the Land of Nihility, so if you need anything here, you can come to me.”

The red-skinned man, seemingly seasoned, immediately began showcasing his usefulness.

Meanwhile, Rocket lowered his head, staring at the blood orb for a long while before finally looking up to Tao Yu and speaking:

“Boss, I’m not too familiar with this place either. If you’ve got anything you need to find out, you might want to ask him.”

“Hmm, what’s this boss Habi of yours? Do you know Yongdu?”

Tao Yu casually asked, figuring that if this little underling didn’t know, he could use it as an excuse to go straight to their boss.

“I know Yongdu. Actually, Boss Habi used to do the same kind of work as Yongdu—taking on any task, completing any job. But recently, he’s been managing some shops here and helping the Collector deal with certain matters.”

“Where’s Yongdu now? How can I find him?”

“Yongdu showed up here three times recently but has already flown off again. However, he left a few underlings here to gather intel; I can help you locate them.”

The red-skinned man quickly chimed in.

He didn’t care what the other party wanted Yongdu for—as long as it wasn’t him in trouble.

——

The Land of Nihility is the headquarters of the Collector, one of the universe’s oldest beings, much like the Heavenly Venerate.

However, considering how easily Thanos snatched the reality gem, his intrinsic strength is actually quite limited.

“For him to issue so many contracts, it suggests he doesn’t know the exact location of the gems himself. Although it wouldn’t hurt to inspect his collection and discuss potential deals in the Land of Nihility, trackable intelligence on Yongdu should be the priority…”

Clad in a white robe exuding an air of transcendence, Tao Yu levitated the red-skinned lackey in front of him, using him as a guide while striding through the streets of the Land of Nihility with blatant swagger.

Despite this brazen display, passersby avoided him like the plague; none dared approach or question him.

Many gazes fell upon Tao Yu, Rocket, and Groot trailing behind him, their wary stares tinged with fear and vigilance.

Tao Yu could even sense that his captive was exchanging glances with some people in the crowd—most likely the other subordinates of Boss Habi.

The streets of the Land of Nihility were somewhat filthy, but the overall environment was still far superior to that of Starshine’s Outer City.

Following the twists and turns pointed out by the captive, Tao Yu finally arrived at a peculiar structure seemingly cobbled together with sheets of metal.

The architecture here matched the bizarre aesthetic of the Land of Nihility.

At first glance, the building appeared to be composed of scrap metal, but closer inspection revealed most of it was armor from discarded spaceships, constructed with aerospace-grade materials.

Though it looked ugly, the building was essentially a fortress.

Before Tao Yu arrived, its doors were already shut tight. Above, at positions resembling gun ports, people peeked out cautiously. Upon realizing Tao Yu was headed for their base, someone began questioning:

“Hey, outsider, what’s your purpose here?”

Yongdu’s crew knew their line of work was always dangerous. Even though Yongdu’s ship had departed, the ones left behind maintained a heightened alert.

Those tasked with gathering intelligence were clearly the most astute and loyal members.

“I’m here to find Yongdu. Tell him to come back—I’ve got big business for him.”

Tao Yu casually tossed aside the red-skinned lackey but didn’t bother killing him.

Realizing he’d been spared, the lackey’s face lit up with uncontrollable joy. Between thanks and apologies, he scrambled away on all fours, running at lightning speed.

Surprisingly quick, too—perhaps it was his racial talent.

“The boss isn’t here. Wait for him to return before you talk,” Kraglin said, slightly relieved after hearing Tao Yu wanted to discuss business with Yongdu.

However, he wasn’t about to call Yongdu back just to talk. That would’ve been absurd.

Besides, Yongdu had plenty of enemies—who knows if Tao Yu was here as an assassin hired to settle a vendetta?

Clearly, Tao Yu had no intention to wait.

With a slight swipe of his finger, crash—

The punk-style building made of spaceship-grade metal immediately lost an entire layer.

The door and the front wall vanished in an instant!
