The old man spat fiercely, "A bunch of cowards! If you want to know anything about them, you'll have to pay this much."

Three withered fingers extended, and the old man looked at Jiang Chen with a deep, unsettling gaze. "I'm selling you the information. If anything goes wrong, remember not to betray us."

He pointed to the white-haired boy waiting outside the store and asked in a low voice, "Han said you got him a card too. If it's convenient, you can pay him as a reward. It's better for him to stay here than outside."

Anyway, it's one card per person, and once it's issued, it won't serve any other purpose besides being used by the cardholder.

Jiang Chen didn't answer, but directly sent the old man 30,000 interstellar coins, and then waited expectantly for news.

"Cough cough cough!" The old man almost swallowed his cigarette butt when he saw the amount deposited. He coughed for a while before he recovered.

I originally intended to ask him for three thousand silver coins, but I didn't expect him to be such a wealthy man!

Without even blinking, he spent 30,000 Star Coins!

"Let me draw you a map!" The old man changed his address and happily found a map of the fourth district and half a pencil in the house. He first drew a circle on the map, "We are here now. That group of people lives in the richest district with the highest cost of living. It's about a half-day drive to get there."

As far as I know, this group wants to maintain good relations with the military on Blackeye Planet, and it seems they intend to stay long-term. Therefore, unlike you who chose to obtain fake documents, they are following the inner city's rules and honestly applying for residency permits.

You need to stay in the five districts for seven days before you can get the application processed.

It would take half a month to get to the fourth district, so from what I gathered, they were staying at the best hotel—Wanlihua, though I wasn't sure which floor. Each of them carried two large leather suitcases, each over a meter tall, and judging from their weight, the contents must have been quite valuable.

"You'd better be careful if you try to follow them. Morito and his loyal men are highly trained; be careful not to get caught."

"Thanks." Jiang Chen checked the time and it was already past midnight, so he simply asked the old man to book two rooms—the kind where he didn't need someone to stay with him.

He slept until the artificial sun in the sky lit up the next day before washing up and driving away.

“I’ve become useless here,” Renn said, sitting by the door with a sullen expression.

The old man slapped him, puffed on his cigarette, and muttered, "Silly boy, that's still much better than outside!"

If he's willing to leave you his documents, you'll see after staying here for a few days. I saved up for most of my life to get to District Four.

"Huh?" Ryan looked blank. "Don't you and Brother Han both run a document processing business? Isn't it just a matter of turning on the machine and making whatever kind of document you want?"

The old man smacked his lips as he puffed on his cigarette. "What are you dreaming about? You think we made all that stuff ourselves? You're so naive! Without inside approval, who could synchronize the data to the official database without delay?"

The person handling the process of issuing a certificate only earns a processing fee.

If it were that simple, Han would have been in already!

An old man and a child sat chatting in front of the shop. The little white cat perched on its host's shoulder and asked, "Host, what battle plan have you devised? Is there anything I can do to help?"

“No plan.” Jiang Chen drove quickly along the route drawn by the old man, relying on the military vehicle to avoid inspection and drive straight to the increasingly prosperous rich area. “Go to Wanlihua Hotel, kill those traitors, take what belongs to the original owner, and then leave Black Eye Planet.”

Little white cat: (`?ω?')

"Oh, okay." It sounded simple, but since the host had said so, he was sure he was confident.

The fluffy little thing, with an inexplicable confidence in its host, began to doze off on the comfortable back seat.

After speeding along for more than three hours, Jiang Chen finally parked the car across the street from the Wanlihua Hotel.

"Xiao Bai, go check the situation." He carefully instructed, "Find Morido and the rebels, and first observe where the stolen valuables are placed. Most importantly, find the deep blue crystal from the main quest. Once you've located it, see if you can put it into your system space first."

The fluffy little ball of fur hopped and skipped away, disappearing from sight.

A moment later, it hopped into the car and reported, "Master, I checked and Morido has booked the entire third floor. The guests are all young people in uniforms with big suitcases. There are about fifty or sixty of them, both men and women."

The rebels were very cautious. After entering the fourth district, they each guarded their vast wealth and did not go anywhere. Even their food was delivered to them by hotel staff.

It seems they won't let their guard down until they reach what they consider a safe zone.

The little white cat realized it had no chance of succeeding, so it didn't dare to make any rash moves.

The deep blue crystal mentioned in the main quest was also found on Morido's neck. He cleverly concealed it with the high collar of his uniform, but it still couldn't escape the little white cat's "eagle eyes".

"Everyone's in their rooms? That's great!" Jiang Chen smiled. "We'll prepare to leave Black Eye Planet in five minutes."

"Five minutes?" The little white cat twitched its fluffy ears in surprise. "Host, are you that fast?"

Chapter Six: The Prince's Revenge

Jiang Chen glanced at it but didn't say anything. Instead, he opened the car door and got out of the car smoothly.

The main quest requires completing the Prince of Revenge quest, but the key question is: what exactly constitutes revenge?

Will simply killing the rebels lead to a textual trap in the main system?

After much deliberation, he decided to avoid all potential pitfalls and instead go directly to the traitors to kill them all and claim the spoils.

Although it is more orderly and peaceful than District 5, it is still ultimately a lower level of a secondary planet.

The most luxurious Wanlihua Hotel has only six floors, which is not even up to the standard of a hotel in an ordinary county town.

The slightly dilapidated door was open, and you could see the receptionist cleaning and glancing up at the screen on the wall, where entertainment programs from Zones 2 and 3 were playing.

Jiang Chen entered through the main entrance openly, passed the reception desk, entered the stairwell, and went up the stairs. The receptionist didn't even look up and was still dawdling while wiping the table.

There was a security camera on the third floor, and he glanced at it as he passed by.

"Bang!" When the hall door was kicked open, Morido was discussing the next steps with the rebels.

First, everyone must obtain the right to reside in the Black Eye Planet Special Zone. Then, by using both wealth and power, they must start with the military to ensure that their group can establish a firm foothold and grow stronger in a very short period of time.

"Brothers and sisters, we are truly free now." He waved his right hand and encouraged them in his usual military tone: "Before, we were enslaved by the royal family, fighting for them and plundering their wealth."

And what has the royal family given back to us?

It's a meager monthly salary!

Besides supporting our families, we can't even afford a decent house in the central area of ​​the planet Argon!

Look at all these rare treasures on the spaceship. They were all looted by the royal family over the years with our help. Even when life and death were at stake, the royal family still wanted to keep these things. They even arranged for us to risk our lives to protect the king's youngest son and help him escape!

He has control over enormous wealth;

Having command authority over operations means they can squander our lives at will.

On what grounds?!

Just because he's a prince and has enjoyed wealth and luxury since birth, does that make him more noble than us?

"We want to break free from slavery! We want freedom!"

We want freedom!

……

The young people, stirred by the emotions, raised their arms and shouted.

Morido gave his adjutant a wink, preparing to seize the opportunity to formally support him as leader, as planned.

The adjutant lowered his gaze slightly to indicate he understood. After the cheers subsided, he stood up and declared loudly, "We are seeking true freedom..."

"Dangdang!"

The door was kicked open, and the adjutant's speech was forced to stop. The more than fifty young people sitting in the hall instinctively gasped in surprise.

"The Sixth Prince!"

"His Royal Highness Prince!"

……

Amid the gasps, some reacted quickly, drawing guns from their waists, eager to strike first.

"Pursuing freedom?" Jiang Chen, looking dashing in his military uniform and wearing royal medals, sneered. "Why didn't you pursue freedom before the Death Star System arrived?"

Why didn't you pursue freedom before the war even started?

You all complain about the royal family plundering wealth and oppressing the people, but when you boarded the only spaceship that could escape the planet Argon, why didn't a single one of you raise any objections?

Apart from myself and three blood relatives who had just turned eighteen, the entire royal family of the Ayutthaya Kingdom died on the battlefield!

They forged a barrier with their lives and their final counterattack, enabling me to lead the sparks of Argon to escape the star cluster.

It can give the main star enough buffer time to send out troops.

They were risking their lives to protect their hometown and the satellite system. What were you doing at that time?

You are plotting a rebellion!

Seize the last remaining wealth of the royal family—the wealth meant to bring glory to the race of Argon once more! Kill the royal descendants who sacrificed everything to ensure the continuation of their race!

Those three royal offspring, who had just turned eighteen, had their parents, brothers, and sisters die on the interstellar battlefield, sacrificing themselves earlier than ordinary soldiers who charged forward!

Yet they perished tragically at the hands of those whom their entire clan had risked their lives to protect.

Morido, you once knelt on the ground and kissed my shoes, vowing to repay my kindness with your life. I am grateful that I rescued you from the hyena pack and provided you with the best conditions for treatment and recovery, so that you would be qualified to enter the army and become a soldier.

You said you were willing to follow me and to go through fire and water for the royal family in return.

"Heh, so your reward is to steal the seed of my race that my father painstakingly preserved; to kill the young who disobey you; and then throw me out of the spaceship and fire a cannonball at my head?"

As Jiang Chen spoke, he moved closer. Morido, whose face was pale, couldn't believe that this guy was still alive and instinctively took a step back.

"Boom!"

Some reacted quickly, knowing that their crime of rebellion was unforgivable, and took the initiative to shoot and kill the sixth prince, thus ending the royal bloodline. They were able to enjoy unimaginable wealth and glory.

However, after the bullet was fired, it stopped a meter away from Jiang Chen, spinning rapidly and unable to advance even an inch!

"Monster! He...he's not the Sixth Prince, he's a monster!"

"Kill him! Kill him now!"

……

Some of the young people hesitated and even quietly took two steps back. They looked at each other, their faces filled with hesitation.

When Morito was persuading everyone, he was in a state of excitement and near collapse, a mixture of emotions including the relief of surviving a disaster, uncertainty about the future, grief and pain over the loss of loved ones, and felt that what he said made a lot of sense.

It's all the royal family's fault for not resisting enough!

It's all the fault of the main planet's rescue coming too late!

It's all their fault. I lost everything and embarked on an unknown future filled with hatred and sorrow. In the future, I will have to fight against the terrifying Death Star System, and even if I die, I will bear the mission of revenge.

After the plan succeeded, they were overwhelmed by the unprecedented wealth they had ever seen and filled with hope for the happy future that Morito had described.

However, it wasn't until the sixth prince appeared and exposed the facade that they finally realized the truth.

The royal family, the army, and the vassals—all those former stars have turned to ashes. I survived only because so many people rushed to the front lines and gave me the chance to escape.
