Chapter 1686 The Meeting
This would be the perfect chance to do it. When the Hescos would come to invade this world, after crushing the space fleet of this world, then he\'d get a chance to reap many gains.
Yet this wasn\'t the ideal solution for him. First, he\'d miss most of the space battle, missing a great chance to watch by himself how great forces fight in the universe. Not to mention one of the good and easy ways to acquire spaceships was by invading enemy ships during battle, wiping out everyone on board, and replacing them with one\'s forces.
Not to mention it was still quite risky to do it. As he thought about doing this, there were many dark forces looming in the darkness, waiting for their chance to snatch any opportunity like this.
If he, smugglers, and dark forces already sat their eyes over this point, the forces ruling this world would make enough preparations to not allow for such a thing to happen.
Even if he managed to claim such loot, secure himself a few spaceships, it\'d be too late to use them in the war. And trying to run away using them would be futile.
The best result would be for him to get these ships as future investment, nothing more than that. And that made him quite annoyed and a bit frustrated.
He knew this would help him in later battles, but it\'d also limit his confidence in securing his life in this war. He sat there, thinking about the other options he had, without knowing that fate had other plans for him.
[Great news! He is willing to meet you at the Dock 12547 in the sector 555]
[What?] Hye went silent for long hours, and even a few days. He kept thinking about this problem of his, forgetting anything and everything happening around.
Even when the lady green nymph came to check on him a day before, he didn\'t notice her presence, didn\'t notice even when she sat and slept on his bed for the night.
She kept looking at him, as if she was a girl looking at her dream man. She was falling totally into him, into his seemingly endless inventory filled with precious bones.
She didn\'t speak or cause any sound for an entire day. She just kept watching Hye, imagining him as a treasure chest, filled with endless wealth for her to grab.
[The smuggler you wanted to meet] Sliverlining paused, feeling puzzled, [Don\'t you want to meet him?!]
[Oh, sorry I was in the middle of something…] Hye thought about asking Silverlining about spaceship deals, and if his empire could provide him with few. But before he\'d open his mouth to say anything, he saw the lady green nymph laying on his bed, exposing more of her hot body than ever!
"What are you doing here?" he ignored Silverlining for now, focused on the uninvited guest he found in his place.
"What? I knocked, and you didn\'t respond. I grew worried about you, and when I brought back one of the staff of the hotel, I found you standing in the middle of the room, looking into the ceiling without moving a single lash! I was worried about staying here to watch over you, is it my fault now?"
"..." he knew she might be telling the truth, but he didn\'t like being watched without feeling it. He lowered his guard, and luckily it was a friend who ended up here not a foe.
[Hey, are you there?] and as he was trying to get over the surprise of her presence, Silverlining shouted and jolted him awake from this.
[When will that meeting happen? How am I supposed to know him?]
[He is waiting for you in four hours. Just go to the Blue Wild Lady bar and ask for the man without a blue hat there. The bartender will lead you to him]
[Got it!] Hye closed the chat after memorising the details about the place and conditions of their meeting, "let\'s go, we have something to do."
"An adventure? Are we going to go away?" The green nymph lady knew she failed in seducing him with her body, and yet she wouldn\'t cling to such failure. She jumped off the bed, raced after him while the two left the hotel.
He didn\'t speak about anything except asking for a map of this world. She bragged that she knew this place by heart, and he doubted her words but still asked her about the location of their meeting.
"Wow! Such a faraway place… We can arrive there using common transport in just two days…"
"I want to be there in a few hours," Hye rolled his eyes, and felt like that smuggler was pretty cautious. He didn\'t just select a faraway place, but also made sure the time available for him was quite tight.
"Are we in a hurry then? There is a faster way to go there, but it\'ll cost you coins…"
"I have zero wealth of this universe," Hye realised he depended too much over his bones to just miss obtaining the coins of the universe. Yet he was sure if he took part in that war, collected loot, he\'d gain tons of them. And that made him feel much bitter about missing his chance in this war.
"You have crystals, and they can be used temporarily for paying the fees," she told him first to use his bones, but he rejected that. He didn\'t want to attract any attention, especially when they were trying to sneak away from the watchful eyes that sat over him.
