Dying Beyond Death Chapter 3

The restaurant on the Fenglei was built extremely luxuriously, and delicacies from all star regions could be found here. This was inseparable from Xuite's philosophy: enjoy life and fight with all your strength. Now was not the time for dinner, but all the members of the third combat team gathered in a corner of the restaurant. In the center of the crowd was Alex, who was silently crying.

"What's the matter? Tell me." A blond alpha saw the person he liked looking sad, and he was so anxious that he scratched his head.

Alex looked up at him, uttered a word, covered his lips again, and shook his head gently.

The blond alpha wanted to say something, but someone held his shoulders and said, "I heard your loud voice at the entrance of the restaurant. What happened?"

"Captain, someone bullied our little Alex."

The man who came was Michael, the captain of the third combat team. He smiled gently. Michael was a gentle and handsome man, and his smile made people feel like a spring breeze, unconsciously letting down their guard.

He sat down opposite Alex and said softly: "Alex, don't worry. Our third team will always be your strongest support."

As if he was comforted by his gentle words, Alex began to talk about his experience in the combat command room in a disjointed manner. At the end, he sniffed again: "Did I do something wrong and angered Adjutant Henry Reiner, so he doesn't like me so much?"

"Nonsense, Alex is so cute, how can anyone not like you. Adjutant Henry Reiner is so strict with everyone. Last time I..."

Michael, who knew his subordinates' moral character well, stopped the blond alpha from going off topic with his eyes, and then continued to comfort Alex softly: "Alex, you are so outstanding. As long as you work hard, you will definitely be recognized."

"Really? But what if Lieutenant Henry Reiner still doesn't approve of me?"

"The commander has the final say on the starship, not Adjutant Henry Reiner." The blond alpha couldn't help but speak again, "The commander is very special to you. Since I joined Fenglei, I have never seen the commander personally lead any newcomer to do a mission!"

"No, no. I guess Xuite thinks I'm clumsy and can't stand it." Alex lowered his head embarrassedly, and his white earlobes slowly turned pink.

Michael smiled and patted Alex on the shoulder: "In order to live up to the commander's expectations of you, you have to work hard."

Alex's eyes lit up and he made a silent decision.

Fury is not a habitable planet. It is too close to the star ZR-21, resulting in a hot climate all year round. The entire planet is basically a desert, with no valuable minerals on it, and even electromagnetic storms from time to time. Such a planet has no interest in any country in the alliance, so it has become a marginal area - a paradise for criminals.

Nabia is a place that is out of place in this desolate place. In the desert, a decadent city of extravagance and debauchery suddenly appears. The main industry of Nabia is selling stolen goods. All kinds of things of unknown origin or banned by the Human Alliance can be found here.

The one eye of Locke Reed's statue looked down slightly, and the place where his eyes were looking was the bright and radiant transparent crystal roof of the central auction house. This most famous star pirate in history was the founder of the auction house. Today, the central auction house welcomed another big customer who spent a lot of money. The scattered guests in the hall were discussing among themselves.

"It's the fifteenth item. Has anyone calculated how many star coins this box 18 cost?"

"Where did this upstart come from? Did he just discover a mining planet?"

"This is obviously a pirate who just made a fortune. Didn't you notice that the items he's selling are weapons and resources?"

"Then there's no fun to watch. The finale is Master Octo's posthumous work, Tears of the Starry Sky. It looks like No. 18 won't make a move. I heard that the Jackal's new favorite is trying his best to take a picture of this classical piano today..."

"Tsk, that woman doesn't understand such profound art. She is just pretending to be cultured and trying to gild herself. If she gets the chance to take the photo, I think Master Octo will be so angry that he will come back to life."

In a warm atmosphere, the final auction item appeared on the stage. The host said nothing more and pressed a button. As the exquisite outer box slowly opened, a breathtakingly beautiful piano appeared in front of everyone. The blue-black piano body, which was as deep as the night sky, shone brightly like the stars under the light. It is said that this is a large amount of nebula stone ground into powder and added to the surface coating to have such a beautiful appearance, just like its name, Tears of the Starry Sky. This piano is so beautiful that no one has played it since it came out. It is said that everyone who has seen it feels that their piano skills pale in comparison with this piano.

However, not everyone is as sentimental as those musicians. A charming and S3xy woman, upon hearing the start of the final auction, sat up straight with some excitement. Then she softly leaned against the burly man beside her and said in a long and coquettish voice: "Dear~"

The big man stretched out his hands to embrace the graceful body that was close to him: "Little fairy, I promised to buy it for you, are you afraid that I will regret it? I have prepared 8 million star coins, enough to buy everything in the venue!"

However, the slap in the face always comes so quickly. As soon as Jackal finished speaking, a standard electronic synthesized voice came from the direction of Box 18: "Ten million star coins."

At this moment, in Box 18, a thin man wearing a black shirt and trousers and with an ordinary face stood in front of the glass window. It was David Lu in disguise.

He turned around and said, "Commander, your bid for this item is against the regulations. We can only buy weapons and resources."

"You just worry too much." Jason raised his index finger and shook it. "I bought it privately."

Since Victor bought it with his own money, David Lu didn't say anything more. Although he didn't understand what Victor wanted to do by buying a piano, Victor always did things as he pleased. As long as it didn't affect the mission, there was no need for him to meddle in other people's business. Just because David Lu didn't care about something didn't mean that others didn't care.

"Shewitt, why did you buy a piano? Do you know how to play the piano? That's amazing." Alex's eyes sparkled as he looked at Shewitt with admiration.

"I don't have any artistic talent. This piano has other uses." Xuite smiled mysteriously.

Alex didn't know what he was thinking about, and a blush appeared on his fair face. David Lu watched the interaction between the two and remembered that Alex's information showed that before attending the First Military Academy, he had studied in an art school for a period of time, and his major happened to be piano. It seemed that the feelings between them had sprouted a long time ago.

"Speaking of which, little Nana, I'm really disappointed today. What are you wearing?" Xiuyit didn't seem to want to continue this topic. He suddenly sighed at David Lu and covered his eyes with an exaggerated expression.

Xiuite was dressed particularly wildly today, with a leather jacket covered with metal ornaments on the upper body, a pair of tattered jeans on the lower body, and a large and weird tattoo painted on his face with dark red dye. Alex next to him was wearing a retro Gothic dress, and the complicated lace shirt made his face look even more delicate.

"My disguise today is very different from my real self and will not affect the mission," said David Lu.

"No, no, no, this is not for the mission, it's for the interest in life. A monotonous life like yours is so boring!" Xuite sighed exaggeratedly and pressed the bidding button without hesitation.

Their current mission is to spend money crazily at auctions of all sizes at the Nabia Center Auction House, so that they can get invitation tickets to the platinum auction. According to the preview released by the auction house, their mission target this time is the goods at this platinum auction.

After taking the picture of Tears of the Starry Sky, there was a knock on the door of the box and a beautiful woman in a black miniskirt walked in. She was holding an exquisite box in her hand with an envelope on top of the box.

"Dear guest, on behalf of the Central Auction House, I sincerely invite you to participate in the platinum auction to be held in three days." The woman bent down, revealing her beautiful slender neck. The air was filled with alluring pheromones. This turned out to be a precious oNathana.

"As expected of a central auction house, they actually use precious oNathanas as waiters." Xiuyt took the box and lifted the woman's chin to take a look at her. "What a beautiful lady."

The woman immediately fell into Jason's arms. For such a generous guest, a platinum auction ticket was obviously not enough, and this beautiful oNathana was obviously part of the gift. Jason couldn't touch her, but not touching her didn't fit the pirate's behavior pattern.

With a lewd expression on his face, Xuite put his arm around Alex and said, "Baby, do you want to try a threesome?"

Alex's face turned red, and he was so scared that he stuttered: "This, this..."

Xiuett pushed the waiter away with a look of regret: "Oh, my little darling is shy. Beauty, I will come to see you alone next time."

The waiter bowed and respectfully left the room. As soon as the door closed, Jason immediately let go of Alex: "I'm sorry, the mission requires it."

Alex mumbled "it's okay", and the atmosphere between them seemed a little awkward.

David Lu spoke up to break the weird atmosphere: "It seems that there is no problem attending the platinum auction. We can go back now."
