Seeing from afar that Sona was injured, Gamora, who was half-fooled by Quill's sweet words, didn't bother to continue listening to his Walkman, and hurriedly squeezed through the crowd and came to Sona's side.
This inexplicably hit Quill a little, but he was also worried about Sona's condition, so he followed.
"What happened?" Gamora carefully helped Sona up and asked with concern.
The Rune of Resolve mobilized most of the energy, allowing Sona to return to her normal life level. She could move normally without any problems, but the pain lasted for a long time.
"The piano was stolen, we must catch the man who did it!" The message revealed anxiety.
If the other party's purpose was just to snatch Segoqin away, Sona might not be too nervous, but it was precisely because she was unclear about the other party's purpose that she was anxious to get Segoqin back.
After all, the ether particles are now stored in セ. Although there is a magic seal, there is no guarantee that the other party or the forces behind it may have a way to take it out.
This is something that is dangerous to the universe. Sona, who has part of Guru's memory, naturally knows the power of the Infinity Stones. What's more, Sona has witnessed with her own eyes how Malesky used ether particles to cause chaos everywhere.
If the other party really wants to obtain ether particles, then the matter will be serious.
Just a brief telepathic transmission allowed Gamora to guess roughly what happened. Looking at Sona's brows slightly frowned due to pain, she felt a little guilty.
Sona shouldn't be left alone in such an occasion. I should have gone to find her as soon as I got separated.
Not far away, Rocket, who was observing the surroundings, suddenly pulled Drax's trouser leg.
"What are you doing, little raccoon? Do you want to fight?" Drax asked puzzledly. In his understanding, pulling pants meant fighting.
Rocket rolled his eyes, selectively ignoring this stupid question, pointed in a direction, and said, "Look what that guy is holding?"
Drax squinted and saw a man in a tattered cloak moving quickly, with the sword in his hand, which was very conspicuous.
"That little girl's piano?" Even though Drax was slow to react, he immediately understood the whole story when he saw this scene.
"Groot, you know what to do, right?" Rocket said coldly. He naturally understood that the other party was also a bounty hunter who wanted to make a lot of money.
Although Rocket was also greedy for that huge sum of money at first... in fact, he is still greedy for it now, but after escaping prison together, Sona is still his teammate after all, not to mention that she saved Rocket's life.
What would happen if the other party snatched the piano away?
"I am Groot!" The tree man's tone was mixed with anger, and his wooden arm instantly stretched out several meters.
Volume 1: Chapter 169: The Perverted Collector
Seabuckthorn thought he was safe and was quietly leaving the scene when he suddenly felt something entangled him.
The next second, he flew into the air, passively.
Groot didn't give Seabuckthorn time to react and quickly launched a complete set of five whips. Although there was no lightning special effect, the violent up and down shaking made it difficult for the transformed humans to bear.
His body was smashed to the ground with a dull metallic collision sound. Just as Seabuckthorn was about to get up, he felt a huge force on his back, pressing him down like a meteorite.
Looking up with difficulty, he saw a muscular man with red tattoos all over his body. Even the onlookers who didn't understand understood that his strength was definitely greater than Seabuckthorn's mechanical prosthesis.
"Look, this equipment must have cost a lot of money, right? Huh?" Rocket grabbed Seabuckthorn's modified left foot and examined it repeatedly. As an expert in weapons, it also understood mechanical prostheses.
But compared to the transformation experiments on raccoons, this level of technology is simply child's play.
Seabuckthorn only had half of its face, so it couldn't show any anger, but the way it resisted was indeed a little funny.
"Don't waste your energy. With your level of transformation, even Quill can suppress you." While mocking him, Rocket did not forget to check the mechanism on Seabuckthorn's body to prevent him from having any other tricks up his sleeve.
This kind of cautious behavior will naturally develop after being tricked a few times.
Not long after Seabuckthorn was restrained, Gamora came with the real boss.
Seeing that the SE was not damaged and the ether particles inside were not taken out, Sona slowly breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at Seabuckthorn coldly.
Sona has not forgotten the two kicks just now. If it weren't for the recovery ability of the Rune of Resolve, she might still have bruises.
It hurts a lot, but it's useless.
If Seabuckthorn knew this idea, he would probably be furious. He was actually using his proud mechanical prosthesis to scrape the other person?
Indeed, Sona actually took the most serious damage from falling.
"Do you want me to help you deal with it?" Rocket asked. Murder was common in places like this, but there would be an extra charge if the bar was asked to deal with the body.
Sona did not respond, but silently put on the hanging ring used by the Earth Mage and opened a portal under the sea buckthorn.
A golden circle appeared, instantly exuding a cold breath. After Seabuckthorn fell into it, Sona immediately closed the portal, preventing Drax from stepping in.
On the other side is the universe, the farthest place that Sona's mental power can reach.
Without survival equipment, exposed to the space environment, even a modified human would have no chance of survival, unless he was a complete robot. But Seabuckthorn is not, and he still needs a respirator as a living being.
Sona didn't want to be too cruel, and such a silent kill was obviously the best result, but the people around her didn't think so.
This weird method is really frightening. They would rather offend the tall tree man than offend the little girl.
"Well, now he's a member of the Space Trash Organization." Seeing that there was some silence around him, Quill made a little joke.
Just when the onlookers were about to disperse, a Pink-skinned Colorado alien dressed as a maid walked into the bar.
"Miss Gamora, my master told me to pick you up." Karina bowed and made an invitation.
"Finally you're here. I almost thought the buyer you found was a pigeon." Rocket is most concerned about the 4 billion Universe Coins.
Gamora nodded and let the maid lead the way.
Originally, Sona wanted to go back to the Milan to rest, but when she thought about how she had been caught by others because she acted alone before, she gave up the idea.
Let’s act together.
"I'm not interested in the deal, you guys go ahead." Drax came to kill Ronan, but stayed in the bar and didn't follow them.
The group left the bar, walked through the chaotic trading market, and finally came to a place that looked more decent.
A collector's venue.
There were no foul-mouthed thugs, no noisy, piercing heavy metal music, and the lighting was softer than outside.
But... there seems to be something wrong with the exhibits in those glass boxes, right?
No, something is very wrong.
There are corpses of various creatures. Fossils are understandable and can probably be seen in general museums.
The dog in the space suit and the duck in the business suit are barely acceptable, at most they are exhibit animals.
But that person was also placed in a glass box...
That should be a person, right?
Sona repeatedly compared the person in the glass box with the maid who led the way, and was convinced that they were of the same race.
But the guy in the glass box had a strange instrument on his head, a lot of wires connected to his body, and a look of being fucked. It was hard not to have wild thoughts.
The collector who exhibited humans... Such behavior was a little hard for Sona to accept.
"This place is so perverted." Although Rocket didn't think of himself as an animal, he couldn't help but feel a sense of empathy when he saw the exhibits in the glass boxes.
It dared to guarantee that if it was caught by that perverted buyer, it would definitely be put on display in a glass box.
"Please allow me to introduce to you Tanarit Tiphon, the collector!" Kalina raised her hands with an exaggerated expression, like a devout missionary praising the Lord.
Behind her, a white-haired man in luxurious attire strolled out.
"Tyvon? Why does this name sound familiar..." Rocket muttered to himself.
Just by seeing Typhon, Quill's expression became a little unnatural. He even felt that Yondu, who had always wanted to eat him, was a little more friendly than the man in front of him who called himself a collector.
Typhon took off his special glasses, walked up to Gamora, kissed her hand naturally, and said slowly: "It's an honor to meet you, Gamora."
"Forget the polite words, Typhon." Gamora's face was calm. She knew that the man in front of her was not an elegant gentleman. He was no less cold-blooded than those lunatics.
However, compared with Thanos Ronan, his ambition is more benevolent to the universe, and the other party also has a considerable background, so Gamora chose to sell the Cosmic Orb to him.
"What is that?" Typhon took a quick look at the people who followed him, and his eyes were immediately attracted to Groot.
As a perverted collector, I became interested when I saw a rare species like Groot.
"I am Groot." The tree man replied honestly.
Typhon walked towards Groot step by step, which made Rocket subconsciously put his hand on the weapon behind his back.
"I didn't expect that I could see the tree man again..." Typhon couldn't believe it. He touched Groot's arm, and seemed to be intoxicated: "Sir, please allow me to pay for your body now."
"Of course you will only belong to me after you die."
"But it would be better if you agree now..."
"What, you want to turn Groot into an old chair?" Rocket said in an annoyed tone.
Typhon glanced at Rocket. He was obviously not surprised by this kind of small talking organism. "Is it your pet? How much is it?"
"You fucking bastard!" Rocket was about to draw his gun, and Quill hurried forward to stop him.
Gamora didn't want to cause any more trouble, so she stopped in front of Typhon and said, "We traveled across half the galaxy to trade for that sphere, not for anything else."
"Okay, let's see what you have." As soon as Typhon's eyes moved away from Groot, they were attracted by something else.
"Wait, what is that?" This time his tone was even a little inappropriate.
Sona felt Typhon's perverted gaze and subconsciously put Sez in front of herself.
Who knew that what Tifeng was looking at was the wooden guqin.
As a collector, he is certainly not an ordinary humanoid life form. His race can be traced back to the early primitive times of the universe.
Tiphon felt that there was a powerful force contained in the guqin. At the same time, he could faintly feel a breath that did not belong to this universe.
Seeing the Collector's expression, Rocket suddenly remembered the 200 million transaction that was still listed on the Bounty Hunter website.
The name of the person who initiated the bounty... seems to be Tanarit Typhon!
Volume 1: Chapter 170: Slaves' Revolt
"I understand. This must be Miss Sona, right?" Typhon rubbed his hands and wanted to step forward to touch the Segoqin, but Sona dodged him.
How did he know his name?
Feeling that the strange man in front of her seemed to have bad intentions, Sona silently placed her fingers on the strings, ready to go.
"Oh, wait, wait, I think I must have lost my composure just now." Tiphon suddenly acted very cowardly and quickly waved his hands to admit his mistake.
He had witnessed the power of the guqin through various channels, such as the live broadcast of the universe that the dark elves had once conducted.
The wormhole that Malesky used to communicate at the time was interconnected, so both sides could see the scene on the other side, and Typhon happened to witness everything.
Not only did he notice the ether particles, but the セkoto in Sona's hand also aroused the collector's interest. How could he not be excited by a magical weapon in the form of a musical instrument with such extraordinary power?
So there was the subsequent bounty, which led to Rocket taking on the mission and so on.
Tifeng didn't know how coincidental the process was, but now that Seguqin appeared in front of him, he would not let go of this opportunity.
Moreover, that powerful aura was made of ether particles, right? Tifeng made a bold guess.
Since the Dark Elves were defeated, there has been no news of the Aether particles, and no cosmic intelligence provider can provide any clues.
The mainstream view is that it was taken away by Asgard. After all, Odin is still alive and the realm of God is still powerful.
But who would have thought that the Aether, one of the six Infinity Stones, would be carried by a little girl at all times?
Just as Tiphon was about to say something, he felt an icy cold sensation on his neck, as if a sharp dagger was pressed against his neck.
It's Gamora's weapon.
"Let's trade first, right?" Gamora didn't want any more trouble. After trading the Cosmic Orb, she would take Sona away immediately.
"All is up to you." Typhon slowly pushed away the dagger with his fingers, and his face returned to the pretentious deep expression he had at the beginning.
"Before we make the deal, you'd better tell us why this thing is worth four billion." Quill took out the Cosmic Spirit Ball from his arms. He almost let it slip out of his hands because of nervousness, but fortunately he caught it in time.
Typhon took the cosmic spirit ball, slowly walked to his operating table, and put it into the decoder that had been prepared long ago.
"Before the birth of all things, there were six strange entities in the universe." Typhon lowered his voice and waved his hands to display many projected images.
In the middle are six infinity stones that sparkle in different colors.
Such a familiar opening...Sona remembered the ancient books she had read in Kamar-Taj.
"After the Big Bang, the remains of these strange bodies were shaped into six particles."
"Infinity Stones!"
At this point, Tiphon seemed to be in high spirits, and his tone began to become a little excited: "Only extremely powerful extraordinary forces can control these raw stones!"
The outer shell of the cosmic spirit ball was opened, and a dazzling purple light flowed out, reflected in everyone's eyes.
Is this also an Infinity Stone?
