I'm Trying To Go Broke, So Why Do I Keep Getting Richer?!-Chapter 254: Blocked

Leo expected to receive at least one false identity card that could help him. However, reality again surprised him.

He received a message from the hired help. When he opened the message, he found an image of a man holding eleven identity cards, each with different names, races, and planets.

However, all of them had his image. Fortunately, the races selected weren’t too strange. Although most of them weren’t human, they were races that looked like humans.

"Wait a minute... Why are there eleven of them?"

He remembered hiring only ten new people, so why were there eleven? Did someone include an extra one just for the sake of it?

While Leo was wondering about it, he noticed another message that had previously escaped his attention.

It was a message from the very first person he had hired for a fake identity card.

"Sorry, I had some problems with the authorities, so I temporarily had to close all communications. Still, although it took a little longer, I have left your identity card in the locker."

Leo felt like facepalming. If the first one was already going to succeed, then why would he waste time hiring so many people?

Now, what was he going to do with eleven of them? He was slightly taken aback. Still, there was nothing he could do about it except complain.

After all, the person had indeed kept their end of the deal. Since the cards were delivered to him, he completed the remaining payment.

Soon, through his careful arrangement, he had received the identity cards in his hand.

Once the cards were in his hand, his ship departed from the Docking Station.

The ship, which was unnamed, had been cleaned from all traces of Alpha Corporation, including the registration number and identifier being replaced. That’s where having money was the most handy.

....

A few weeks had passed, before Leo finally stepped out of the black hole, appearing before a massive planet.

If the planet was to be compared to earth, it was like comparing a football with a golf ball. The size of the planet was massive, and so were the security mechanisms that were placed around the planet. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

It was one of the seven high ranking planets that were known to people after all. Not only was it popular amongst people for business, but it was also a place where most major companies in the central region were established.

Even the weakest company that had a headquarter on this planet could destroy the peak Alpha Corporation with a single sentence.

It was also because of that reason, getting a registration on this planet was said to be the hardest thing to achieve. Just the sheer value proposition was extreme.

After all, as a high tier planet, it not only provided protection to the companies, but they could also enjoy easy access to other high tier planets, not even counting thousands of middle tier planets and millions of lower tier planets.

Still, even though it was Leo’s first time at this place, he was still a little taken aback.

It was especially because he could see many remnants of battle ships floating in the endless space, as if it was nothing more than the aftermath of a massive battle.

Many smaller planets around this place have also been destroyed in the chaos that recently swept across the central region.

Leo couldn’t even imagine how much chaos it had been, if even after all this time, the space was filled with remains of battleships that were higher class and larger than anything earth had seen.

Even now, thousands of cleaning vessels were operating in the space sector, trying to clean millions of metallic pieces floating in space.

Even if it was to be recycled, the value of these materials were massive. Leo couldn’t even imagine how much value these ships would’ve had before they were destroyed.

It was clear that the high tier planet had lost a lot this time, through no fault of their own.

This battle of the ancient houses started because he had kidnapped a man. If that young man had been safely delivered back to his home, something like this would never have happened.

Leo was certain that the news about his responsibility might have already reached many ears.

He couldn’t even imagine how much hostility these Overlords of the Central Region were going to hold towards him.

It was also one of the reasons that Leo had immediately killed the identity of Vanderlen since it could be linked to the envoy. Even through a mistake, he didn’t want to be caught.

Hence, as soon as he heard that the battle between the ancient houses was almost over, he immediately revealed the video of his death, making everyone believe it.

Of course, it was also a way for him to rake in more losses for a new yet more grand beginning in the big players league.

Finally, he was moving from the outskirts of the universe to the central region. It was no different than moving from high school league to the pro league.

Even if the wealth he possessed through system rebate was massive by earth’s standards, in the central region where even mediocre companies had more net worth than him, it was barely a drop of water in the bucket.

It also made him feel like he was back to the starting point. Fortunately, it also made him more optimistic.

In a place where people played with trillions of credits each day, just how much potential did it have for him to lose money?

Even if he used a few Trillions and lost them, no one was going to pay attention to him.

The only problem was that he had to enter the planet first, and gain the necessary permits.

This time, he couldn’t even ask Galactic Union Leader Viserl for help.

The moment his ship came closer to the planet, he saw a couple of battleships, no smaller than floating cities, block his path.
