Marvel's Hogwarts Wizard

Chapter 415 Death Star and the Black Market (Second Update)

"If only that were true! This damn cash is only issued once to prevent counterfeiting; once it's used up, it's no different from scrap metal, and you can only exchange it for new ones!"

Rocket Raccoon slammed his fist on the table next to him rather roughly; not having a personal account was just too much of a hassle.

"So, can we exchange cash for you at the black market?"

"Jerry asked."

"No, that's just a very small black market. Forty billion would be enough to buy that entire black market!"

Gamora shrugged:

"Only in places like the Void or Contraxia can you find merchants who can exchange for 4 billion in cash, but I would suggest going to Contraxia instead."

"Because if there's a problem with the planet we're going to, we'll have to go to Contrasia to look for other information. If we confirm that the planet is fine, we can go there and directly exchange 5 billion in cash for it."

Actually, there's another reason I didn't mention: her previous buyer was the head collector of the Void Land, and it would be troublesome if that were discovered.

"Then let's do it your way!"

Jerry had no problem with that. His goal was to find a planet that met the criteria, then immigrate to the Ring World and take a trip around the universe.

He was interested in seeing both the largest black market, the Void, and the raider's gathering place, Contraxia.

He even planned to visit the Kree Empire and the Sovereign Empire.

"From the Divine Realm, approximately how much longer until we reach our destination?"

"My lord, at the current speed, it will probably take another four hours!"

The answer from the Divine Realm echoed from the heavens.

Jerry nodded:

"Please rest here. There's plenty of food, drinks, and entertainment. If you have any questions, just ask the Divine Domain Number!"

After greeting Gamora and Rocket Raccoon, he got up and went back to his room in the villa.

Since I have four hours to kill, I might as well study the biology of the Nova Empire.

During his time on Xandar, he used his bracelet to download all the biology-related knowledge of the Nova Empire for a fee.

Although the technology of the Nova Empire is not geared towards biological research, it still contains some new knowledge that does not exist on Earth, which is quite inspiring to him.

When it comes to bio-engineering, we have to look to the Kree Empire. According to the description of the Kree Empire in the bracelet, the Kree Empire likes to use aliens from colonized planets for biological experiments.

Therefore, there are many advanced technologies in the field of bioengineering.

"Even though he's just an Earthling, for some reason, I always feel like he's quite mysterious!"

Rocket Raccoon murmured after Jerry left.

Gamora, on the other hand, fell into deep thought, feeling as if she had overlooked something.

"Oh, what is he doing? Why do I really want to poke him!"

While the three of them were discussing the issue, Star-Lord wasn't there. He was on the beach opposite the deck chair, listening to upbeat dance music and dancing his unique, mesmerizing dance.

Gamora had just remembered something when she suddenly saw Star-Lord's dance and couldn't help but reach for the retractable sword at her waist.

"Haha, maybe, maybe he's courting. It's said that many animals on Earth like to dance when they're courting."

Upon seeing this, Rocket Raccoon picked up the wine on the table and laughed loudly.

At this moment, Star-Lord got excited, activated the thrusters on his feet, and slid directly down the sand to Gamora, then gave her what he thought was a super charming wink.

Gamora silently stood up from the recliner, then quickly kicked Star-Lord, leaving behind the words "idiot," before turning and heading to the villa's living room.

"What's wrong with her?"

Star-Lord bent over, one hand covering his groin, and the other hand taking off his headphones as he asked Rocket Raccoon.

Rocket Raccoon gulped down the drink in his glass, looking completely unconcerned, and said:

"How would I know? You'll have to ask her!"

Four hours later, on the deck of the Divine Realm.

"That's Laka, a dead star that was completely destroyed during the war between the Kree Empire and the Nova Empire. Now it's become a small black market hub."

Gamora pointed to a rough, dark planet in front of her and explained.

Black markets like this, which lack legal checks and balances, generally don't dare to operate openly on governed planets, because they could easily be shut down.

It can only be opened in some Death Stars.

"What is the Death Star?"

Jerry asked, somewhat curiously.

Although he has recently read a lot of information about various aspects of the universe, there are still some terms he doesn't understand.

Before Gamora could answer, Star-Lord stepped forward, as if to prove his erudition, and coughed to explain:

"The so-called dead stars are different from those planets where no life has ever been born. They were all planets where life had flourished and where life could grow."

However, it was eventually destroyed due to various interstellar wars.

But compared to planets that have never given birth to life, these dead stars at least allow people to survive for a short period of time without any equipment.

This is why the black market was established on the Death Star.

Jerry nodded upon hearing this.

He knew that throughout the history of the universe, countless interstellar wars at the level of cosmic empires had occurred, not just the current Kree Empire and Nova Empire.

He had read in previous materials about the Kree Empire that it had been fighting the Skrull Empire for countless years before it started its war with the Nova Empire.

It wasn't until twenty years ago that the Kree Empire announced that it had exterminated the last remaining Skrulls.

Therefore, there are many such dead stars in the entire universe.

The universe is cruel. Even peace-loving civilizations like the Nova Empire must not forget to strengthen themselves at all times, because if they encounter something like the Kree Empire, they're doomed.

In fact, Jerry personally believes that if the Kree Empire hadn't been weakened by the war with the Skrull Empire, it probably wouldn't have signed a peace treaty with the Nova Empire.

Moreover, he estimated that the Kree Empire was currently using delaying tactics, and given their penchant for aggression, they would definitely not remain peaceful indefinitely.

This is also why he sold the Dark Elf warships to the Nova Empire.

If the Kree Empire really attacks the Nova Empire, and the Nova Empire is able to survive because of the Dark Elf ships and warships he sold, shouldn't the panel give him some little red stars?

Of course, it's hard to say for sure, since he didn't personally help.

However, it would be best if he had them, but even if he didn't, he still made a lot of money and didn't lose out. The key is that he doesn't need those things.

Guided by Gamora, Asgard entered the atmosphere of the Death Star and found the brightly lit black market gathering place in a barren canyon.
