Chapter 562: 549 The Blonde Lady Rescued on the Ice Field
A small flight vehicle took off from the icy plain of chilly Achilles Star. In the perpetual night of the winter season, its searchlight flickered, swept over the ground a few times, and then flew out into the sky.
In the cabin , a blonde girl wrapped in heavy warm clothing was holding a heater and still shivering violently.
The man sitting opposite her, a tall man with a handsome face and a ponytail, looked at her with some curiosity. The girl seemed very young and extremely beautiful, but what disturbed him even more was her impressive figure. Even in warm clothing, the astonishing contour of her chest captivated the imagination.
"Miss, you're very lucky, Achilles Star is not far from Sumer Star, and we also have a signal relay station here. Otherwise, we would not have received your distress signal," the ponytailed man said.
Though the blonde was beautiful, he was already committed to someone else, so he harbored no other thoughts.
With her teeth still chattering, the blonde Miss gratefully responded, "Really, if you hadn't come to rescue me, I might have indeed been doomed here. Damn Emerald Sea, always refusing to give me a better spacecraft and making do with an old clunker, which finally gave out."
The ponytailed man could see that this woman was exceptional. She had come here by her spaceship alone, venturing into the Wilds of the Galaxy. Such a feat was unimaginable. The Wilds of the Galaxy was a haven for criminals and adventurers, and for a beautiful woman like her to step into it alone was a most unwise decision.
He observed that even in this freezing state, the woman had not abandoned some of her experimental equipment, which she was now dearly clutching between her legs on the ground.
The ponytailed man said, "Miss, please excuse my audacity, Achilles does not belong to anyone, but since it is in the Wilds of the Galaxy, we of the Champion Mercenary Corps feel obligated to understand the situation. May I ask what brought you to Achilles?"
The blonde was slightly wary, but considering the good reputation of the Champion Mercenary Corps in recent years, known to be a group with a strong sense of justice, she replied, "My boss, well, a damn flat-chested green-haired lolita, said there was something very valuable on this planet, so she sent me to find it. As you can see, I haven't found anything."
As she spoke, she subconsciously moved her legs a bit, covering a box underneath her feet.
The alert ponytailed man noticed this detail, but he wasn't planning to openly snatch the box from the blonde. Once they reached Sumer Star, he would naturally find a way to discover the secrets hidden inside.
The ponytailed man asked, "I haven't had the pleasure of learning your name, miss."
The blonde casually replied, "Ah, my name is Linyin."
The ponytailed man displayed a very sunny smile and said, "My name is You Mi'er, the vice-captain of the Champion Mercenary Corps."
A guy with shark-skin texture and somewhat fish-like features, holding a gun, laughed and said, "Second Vice-Captain."
You Mi'er looked a bit helpless and pushed the shark-headed guy, saying, "The Second Vice-Captain is also a Vice-Captain. Bluefin, give me some face, will you?"
The shark-headed guy named Bluefin chuckled, "I'm just motivating you. If you could replace Night Song and become the First Vice-Captain, wouldn't your chances of marrying our leader be even greater?"
Speaking of the leader, You Mi'er's expression softened, yet it also held a trace of helplessness.
He sighed and said, "The captain must have someone she likes, right? She always stands there alone, looking into the distance as if waiting for someone's return. I think, the person liked by the captain must have saved the world in her past life."
Bluefin touched his own nose, though his nose was just two holes, and sighed, "Half the guys in the corps look up to the captain as if she's some goddess, even though I'm not from the Primate Clan, I think the same. Among all four deputy captains in our corps, apart from Deputy Captain Fleur who is a female, Deputy Captain Night Song, you, and Deputy Captain Wali, who doesn't admire her?"
You Mi'er didn't mind being teased about his crush; he laughed, "Maybe Night Song and I count, but Wali, that guy doesn't really count, he likes the captain and also Mrs. Xue, and on the streets, he'll confess to any pretty girl he sees."
Bluefin chuckled, "That's right, Deputy Captain Wali is known as the flirt of Sumer Star, and he swings both ways."
Sitting on the side, Linyin listened to their gossip and found these people quite amusing. She asked, "Your Champion Mercenary Corps is famous not only in the Wilds of the Galaxy but other places too, they say your captain has a nickname the 'Punishing Goddess', and she's stunningly beautiful, looks like it's true."
You Mi'er laughed, "That's correct, the three greatest beauties of the Wilds of the Galaxy are our captain, Mrs. Xue, and our little sister Fleur."
Bluefin solemnly said, "Honestly, Miss Linyin, if you stay, we might just have the four great beauties of the Wilds of the Galaxy."
Linyin, always straightforward, didn't blush but modestly said, "What's beautiful about me? If you talk about beauty, the Galaxy Songstress is the real beauty."
You Mi'er asked excitedly, "Have you seen the Galaxy Songstress perform?"
Bluefin also stared at Linyin with his small eyes, clearly very interested.
Linyin thought to herself, "I won't tell you that I used to do chores for those songstresses of the Galaxy."
"Ah, I've seen them once, their fans are incredibly numerous now. Many civilizations vie to invite them to perform."
You Mi'er said, "Yeah, it's said that initially the Galaxy Songstress came from a Star Alliance group, but later, unable to endure the Chancellor's tyranny, they left the Star Alliance, added new members, and then became a sensation across the Galaxy."
Upon hearing 'Star Alliance', Linyin felt a slight sadness. Not just the Galaxy Songstress, she also hadn't set foot on Star Alliance territory for eighteen years.
Bluefin said, "Wonder when the Galaxy Songstress will perform in the Wilds of the Galaxy."
You Mi'er laughed, "That's wishful thinking. Our place is dangerously weird, full of unsavory types who might try to kidnap them as their bandit brides the moment news of their arrival spreads."
Linyin laughed, "That won't happen, now the Galaxy Songstress fan club includes the Ninth Prince from the high-level civilization of the Lien Xi Empire, who has his own planet and fleet. This Ninth Prince vowed to be the knight for the Galaxy Songstress, creating the Galaxy Songstress Support Fleet, attracting many who call themselves secret admirers. No matter where the Galaxy Songstress goes, they provide protection, it's really wild."
Being stationed mainly in the Wilds of the Galaxy, You Mi'er and Bluefin, surprised by the news, said, "Such things happen, that's really sensational."
What do you think?
