Moreover, since bounty hunters often live on the edge, they basically spend as much as they can to avoid dying on their next mission.

The most painful thing in life is dying before you've spent all your money.

"Based on your past bounties, the most you've ever been sold for has never exceeded 500,000."

"So even if I sell you, there's no benefit to it."

Jarvis spoke up upon hearing this.

"I'm really sorry if the reward isn't more than 500,000."

Star-Lord felt somewhat ashamed when Jarvis mentioned his past bounties.

For a raider, the higher the bounty, the greater the fame. His highest bounty was only around 400,000, which means he had very little fame.

"You don't need to apologize to me."

Jarvis responded upon hearing this.

Soon, led by Jarvis, the group arrived at Tony's experimental area on the Void Island.

Looking at the vast experimental area, the group knew that Tony Stark was incredibly wealthy.

This is the Void Isles, the headquarters of the Cult of the Void. It's here that Tony Stark has been able to occupy such a large area.

It's easy to imagine Tony Stark's status within the Cult of the Void.

After disembarking from the spaceship, the group, led by Jarvis, entered an experimental building and successfully met Tony.

Star-Lord noticed that not only Tony Stark and Bruce Banner were present, but also several unfamiliar faces, including two stunningly beautiful women.

Thor and Loki remained silent upon seeing these people, seemingly oblivious, though they did spare some attention to try and identify them.

"Tony, who are they?"

Pepper asked with some confusion when she saw the arrival of these people.

"These are the Guardians of the Galaxy."

"This captain, Star-Lord Peter Jason Quill, is from Earth, the Ninth Realm, just like us."

“I brought them here so that they could be my guides when Banner and I went to the Nowhere.”

Tony listened to Pepper's words and offered an explanation.

"We're having a meal right now. Please find a place to sit down and we'll talk later."

Immediately, Tony looked at Star-Lord who had arrived and said something.

Star-Lord swallowed hard when he saw the huge table of food spread out in front of Tony, which was dozens of meters long, but he obediently found a seat and sat down.

"Just you and Banner?"

When Pepper heard that Tony planned to leave Xandar for a place she had never heard of, she immediately asked.

"Banner and I went there to see if we could buy what we wanted."

"It's unclear how long we'll be gone."

"Thor and Loki are free, but they have to stay in the gravity chamber."

"The three of you are also cultivating every day, and you will be returning to Blue Star in a while, so I didn't count you in."

"If all goes well, I'll be back soon; if not, it'll be at most a month or two."

Tony smiled and said upon hearing this.

"It's a bit chaotic there, but if the two of you go, you shouldn't encounter any danger."

Loki knew something about the Void, but he was busy cultivating and didn't have time to act as a guide. However, he knew what Pepper wanted to ask, so he said a few words.

"Just let me know if you need any help."

"Although we need to cultivate, we will still rush over immediately if you encounter any trouble."

Thor spoke up upon hearing this.

"Can't you buy what you want in the market?"

Steve found it strange when he heard that Tony planned to go to the Void to buy something.

"We just can't buy it, that's why we have to go to the black market to take a look."

Tony looked somewhat helpless upon hearing this and said something.

"Then you'd better be careful."

"Give me a call when you're safely back on Void Island."

Pepper wasn't worried about Tony encountering any danger, because both Tony and Banner were among the top experts in the Void Cult, so they generally wouldn't encounter too much danger.

However, Pepper also reminded Tony to let her know when the time came, so that she could be completely at ease.

"it is good."

Tony nodded upon hearing this.

Tony made no attempt to conceal his conversation with Steve and the others.

Star-Lord, Gamora, Rocket, Groot, and Drax were all relieved to hear this.

This indicates that they are only needed to act as guides, helping Tony and Banner understand the situation and rules of the Nowhere.

If nothing unexpected happens, they should be able to get away and leave.

If they were to stay by my side longer, I would definitely increase their compensation.

Drax wanted to express his gratitude, but seeing that Bruce Banner was having a meal, he didn't disturb him.

Although he often failed to read the room, he still understood the rules within the Void God Cult's headquarters.

Twenty minutes later.

Tony and Banner also had a very satisfying meal.

"Sorry to keep you waiting. We'll get ready in a bit and then we can head to the Void."

Tony and Banner approached Star-Lord and the others, smiling as they spoke.

"We understand what you want us to do."

"However, I have a question in my mind, and I wonder if you could answer it for me?"

When Star-Lord saw Tony and Banner approaching, he immediately stood up and asked cautiously.

"Everyone here belongs to the Nine Realms, so there's no need to be so afraid."

"What you really want to know is why I call you a demigod, right?"

Tony sat down directly on the large sofa and said with a smile.

"Yes, although I am very confident in my reputation, I still know that my abilities have nothing to do with gods."

Upon hearing that everyone present was from the Nine Realms, Star-Lord's tension eased considerably, and he scratched the back of his head as he spoke.

"To be honest, I don't know much about your demigod status either."

"All we know is that you are a hybrid of human and god; your father's background is far from simple."

"If you can awaken and master the power within you, you can join the ranks of the universe's top powerhouses."

Tony spoke up upon hearing this.

"Is he a hybrid of human and god?"

"Will I become that strong after awakening?"

"Tony, where did you get this information?"

Loki hadn't been interested in Star-Lord and his group before, but upon hearing Tony's words, he immediately came over and sized up the seemingly ordinary Star-Lord.

"From the mouth of Lord Kassadin, the God of the Void."

Although Tony can call Kassadin by his first name in front of Loki and the others, he always uses the title "Madame" when he's with outsiders.

Loki heard this from Lord Kassadin, the god of the void, and knew that these things were true, but he couldn't understand it.

How could Star-Lord, who looks like a petty thug, possess such immense power?

So Loki looked at Star-Lord and asked directly.

"I can not understand."

Who is your father?

Chapter 387 Your father is a scumbag

"I do not know either."

Star-Lord sensed Loki's gaze. Although he felt a little uncomfortable, he didn't know who his father was when asked to reveal it.

"You do not know?"

Loki was even more bewildered by what he heard.

"Consider Zeus's past. So many gods in the universe acted as they pleased, it's not surprising that they left behind some emotional debts."

"Jarvis, scan Star-Lord's body."

Tony didn't seem to care much when he saw Loki's incomprehension; instead, he watched Star-Lord with great interest.

"The strength of the cells in Peter Quill Jason's body was detected to be far greater than that of ordinary humans."

The increased cell activity indicates a significantly enhanced resilience, meaning that ordinary attacks will not cause severe damage.

"The DNA sequence is so mysterious that no known race in the universe can find a DNA sequence that completely matches it."

Upon receiving Tony's message, Jarvis was enveloped in a red light and reported the message within seconds.

The data released also included Star-Lord's physical data compared to that of a normal human, as well as data comparing Steve's physical data after he was initially injected with the super serum and the physical data of ordinary people on Xandar.

In terms of physical attributes alone, Star-Lord surpasses Steve Rogers and even normal Xandarians.

Judging from any indication, Star-Lord is not a normal human; his bloodline is extremely high, though it's unknown which god he is descended from.

Have you ever been injected with anything similar to gene-editing agents?
