Chapter 419: Establishing Authority (Third Update)
"Let's not waste any more time. Go ahead and explain to your men that we're ready to depart!"
After releasing the stunned raiders from the stunning spell, Jerry spoke to Yondu and then addressed the Godrealm floating in the sky:
"Godrealm, shrink down!"
"Yes, my lord!"
The Godrealm, enveloped in a glow of magic, rapidly shrank to the size of a thumb and flew into Jerry's pocket.
After today's incident, Jerry realized that the Golden Godrealm was too conspicuous. If they were to visit Contrasia, the raider planet, it would cause a lot of trouble.
Although he wasn't afraid of trouble, too much of it would waste time.
Therefore, he had the Godrealm activate the shrinking spell enchanted on its hull, eliminating the issue of being too noticeable.
There were plenty of raider ships here, so he didn't have to worry about a lack of transportation.
On the other side, the raiders who had just regained consciousness looked bewildered at their ship, which had returned to its original state, wondering if they had just been dreaming.
However, upon hearing that there might be a big job ahead, they didn't dwell on it too much.
Thus, all the raider ships, including Star-Lord's, entered the largest one. They then boarded Yondu's base ship and set off for the coordinates provided by Gamora.
Two weeks later, in a room on the raider ship, Jerry was reviewing some documents on his wrist device when a very respectful voice came from the doorway:
"Mr. Carmen, we are about to make our final Spatial Leap. After this leap, we should be close to our destination. The boss asked me to inform you!"
"Alright, Kraglin, I understand!"
Jerry responded, closed his wrist device, and walked out the door.
No matter how fast a spaceship could travel, it couldn't traverse the vast distances between star systems. Therefore, they needed to find fixed Spatial Leap points to travel long distances through space.
These Spatial Leap points had fixed locations in the universe.
After leaving Raka, the large raider ship had made ten Spatial Leaps over the course of two weeks to reach the vicinity of the coordinates.
Led by Yondu's subordinate, Kraglin, Jerry passed through several bustling compartments and arrived at the control room.
Along the way, every raider who saw Jerry showed a mixture of respect and fear.
It wasn't because Jerry was a big client. Most of the raiders were survivors from planets destroyed by interstellar wars, along with criminals from various worlds.
They were ruthless and had no qualms about killing. They wouldn't bow to anyone just because of money. They only respected the strong.
The reason for this current state of respect and fear could be traced back to the first day Jerry and his companions boarded the ship.
Thirteen days ago.
In the ship's public entertainment area, most of the raiders were gathered in small groups, chatting and boasting.
Jerry was also sitting with Star-Lord and a few others, discussing information about Contrasia.
Three years had passed since the planet was ravaged by Thanos, and it was very close to the Kree Empire's Large Magellanic Cloud system. It was highly likely that the Kree Empire had already discovered it.
Following Gamora's advice, Jerry had mentally prepared for the possibility that their mission might not go smoothly, and they might have to search for new leads on Contrasia.
"Hey, green-skinned girl, come over here and keep me company for a drink!"
At that moment, a raider taller than Drax, with a red, electrified-looking face, approached with a bottle of alcohol and a group of equally unsightly raiders, leering at them.
When people are well-fed and warm, they tend to think about lust, and these plunderers were no exception.
Having not touched a woman for so many days, it was impossible for them not to have thoughts when a beautiful woman in tight clothing sat right there.
However, Gamora was not someone to be trifled with. Trained in brutal combat by Thanos from a young age and with her body enhanced, even most of these generally high-combat-capable plunderers would not be her match.
But before she could even draw her blade, Star-Lord had already pulled out his elemental gun, pointing it at the red-skinned plunderer and angrily said:
"Shockerface, get lost, or I'll blow your head off!"
"Don't call me Shockerface, call me Shockeradventure. Peter, you have no right to speak. If it weren't for Udonta always favoring you, I would have crushed you long ago.
You're a traitor, and traitors should be executed. We follow Udonta because he never shows mercy, yet he keeps letting you off!"
Shockerface paid no attention to the gun in Star-Lord's hand, as his companions behind him also raised their energy guns and aimed at Star-Lord.
"Ha ha ha, ha ha ha ha, sorry, that's just too funny, I couldn't help it!"
At that moment, two loud laughs suddenly interrupted the tense atmosphere.
It was Rocket Raccoon and Drax, who were sitting next to Jerry.
"Your name is Shockeradventure?"
"That's my new nickname!"
Shockerface said confidently.
"Can your face shoot electrified darts?"
Rocket Raccoon asked, trying to hold back his laughter.
Before Shockerface could answer, Drax, laughing, chimed in:
"His face can't shoot electrified darts, but I bet he's been shot by them. That's a pretty accurate name, ha ha ha ha."
Jerry, who had been sitting there without being amused by "Shockeradventure", couldn't help but laugh after hearing Rocket Raccoon and Drax's comments.
He realized that these two guys could be quite funny sometimes.
"You, I don't think we need to find any more planets. First, we should tie up this big customer, make him transfer all the money from his account, then keep the green-skinned woman and kill Quill the traitor and the others. That's what we plunderers should do!"
Seeing that these people were not taking him seriously, Shockerface angrily rallied all the plunderers behind him.
And with his encouragement, about a dozen plunderers stood up with their guns drawn.
"Cruciatus Curse!"
Before Gamora and the others could even stand up, Jerry waved his hand, and a black magic beam shot out, instantly encircling Shockerface and all the other plunderers.
Immediately, the entire cabin was filled with the agonized screams of the victims.
"Perhaps I was too merciful on Raka, leading you to have unrealistic fantasies. Let me reiterate:
If you help me find what I want, there will be a bonus. If not, I will give you many very 'pleasant' memories."
Jerry lifted the Cruciatus Curse and then cast a Transfiguration Spell, turning the plunderers who had just stopped screaming into maggots, which he mind-controlled and threw into the toilet.
He set the Transfiguration Spell to last for two days, believing that after these two days, when they crawl out of the toilet, they would be much more obedient.
