Mech: Shattering of the Galaxy-Chapter 1269 - 4: The Biggest Intelligence Boss

The amber-colored liquor swayed in the bottle.

Jude's face suddenly turned gloomy.

The lively bar was still bustling with voices, and nobody paid attention to the conversation between the two people in the corner.

"I had some doubts originally, but now it's clear, he really is an outsider."

Jude's green-black wrinkled skin slowly squirmed at this moment, with an indescribable feeling of disgust.

The dancer in his arms covered her mouth and laughed, unabashedly giving Mu Fan a fiery glance.

But the pity in her eyes was evident.

This outsider probably doesn't really understand the situation.

Jude, the third shareholder of the Gold Miner Bar.

A famous broker on the Ancient Steel Star, secretly a ruthless butcher.

Rumored to be a hybrid from an unknown race thirty light-years away in the Outer Domain Galaxy, suddenly emerged three years ago when the Ancient Relic "Steel" appeared.

With a group of equally ruthless subordinates, he swept away the underground forces of entire two cities.

Many who tried to use heavy firepower to annihilate his forces and people disappeared without a trace from the planet the next day.

It was thought this ruthless hybrid butcher would unify the planet's underground forces.

Yet he stubbornly guarded one corner...

Appearing periodically, mingling among the crowd.

After the ruins disappeared, the once thriving city again fell into decline.

But this hybrid showed no intention of leaving, often suddenly appearing in bars big and small, lingering for a time, and then disappearing again.

Old people died or left, new people arrived.

His name no longer appeared in the cold-blooded legend.

Most people just regarded him as a slick old mercenary.

However, this dancer knew clearly because she was one of his kept lovers...

Her daily task was to listen in bars for any interesting rumors, reporting this information to Jude when he visited the Gold Miner Bar.

Today, this rather grim young man is really unlucky.

Such good looks, just a bit temperamental, offending Jude... probably won't see the sun tomorrow.

It's really a bit of a shame.

The dancer regretfully licked her lips, intrigued by such a cold young man with a rare kind of foolishness, wanting to develop an indescribable temporary relationship.

"So what if it is, so what if it's not?" Mu Fan leisurely propped up his chin with both hands, this pose unexpectedly made the dancer dizzy.

This young man indeed had a kind of maturity beyond his years, making her feel restless just looking at him.

If she were not sitting in Jude's lap, she would certainly rub against him like a mother cat.

Jude's squirming skin, and those round eyes, stared at Mu Fan, his gloomy look instantly faded.

Then he laughed heartily, unbuttoned his collar, comfortably reclined on the chair back.

That eerie round eye stared at Mu Fan, and he stuck out his tongue to lick the corner of his mouth.

"Outsiders come to the Ancient Steel Star generally for two reasons. One, to hunt Fierce Beasts for a living, maybe one day a passing mercenary group will take notice. Two, for the Ancient Relic, after all, there's always someone with unrealistic and laughable fantasies, thinking they're the lucky one." 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

"From what I can see now... you don't have any Fierce Beast bloodstains on you, nor that hard-to-remove pungent smell of blood. The rum you're drinking is the most expensive at the Gold Miner Bar, 700 points a glass, 2000 points a bottle. Let me see, tsk tsk, two bottles of rum, 4000 Hinchlo credits. Someone like you going to the largest intelligence hub, Gold Miner Bar, must be seeking something."

Those round eyes stared at Mu Fan, carefully examining him, at this moment Jude truly didn't seem angry due to previous disrespect.

Mu Fan genuinely showed a trace of interest after hearing Jude's analysis.

Opposite him, this ugly and bizarre-looking man possessed such astonishing insight, immediately hitting on his purpose for coming.

Nevertheless, Mu Fan didn't relax his guard because of the other's manner.

Because the dancer who flirted with him earlier, at this moment had a flash of fear in her eyes... then never looked at him again.

This detail...

Mu Fan's mouth gently curled, it was indeed interesting.

"Are you the intelligence broker of this bar?"

"Mm-hmm, if you need intelligence, then you're my client, won't you buy me a drink?" Jude smiled, revealing triangular teeth, looking even more frightening.

Mu Fan smiled as well, shaping his left forefinger and thumb into an O, then flicked gently.

With a bang.

Half a bottle of rum slid across the rough wooden table.

Jude's pupils shrank, reaching out a rough palm to catch the bottle, then quietly poured it into a glass, slowly raising it to his throat, squinting his eyes with a look of intoxication on his face.

The green-black wrinkled skin squirming again, seeming to demonstrate pleasure following its owner's intent.

"Information about the Ancient Relic [Steel], do you have it?"

Beneath messy white short hair, Mu Fan's deep eyes were black and bright.

"Asking the right person, you probably won't find anyone else on this planet who knows better than I do."

"Why?" After experiencing the Capital Star incident, the aftermath of burning brightly at the last moment left Mu Fan's face almost looking twenty-four or five years old maturity.

Experiences of bloody battles, scars on his face added a touch of man's weariness.

So when he spoke now, naturally like experienced mercenaries of many years.

"Because I'm the biggest intelligence boss on the Ancient Steel Star." Jude suddenly laughed heartily, showing the underground hero's aura long unseen.

"I want all the intelligence."

"Expensive." Jude looked at Mu Fan, round eyes hiding thoughts behind them.

The dancer seemed enchanted under his might now, her half body sticking to his chest.

She wouldn't cause herself trouble at this moment, as Jude killing her was no different from crushing an ant because Jude spoke clearly, hinting at the next round of probing.

If he had no other purpose, he'd directly name a specific number instead of adding this phrase first.

"How much?" Mu Fan quietly asked.

"One hundred thousand points, absolutely worth the price." Jude leisurely put down the glass.

One hundred thousand Hinchlo points, exchanged for the previous Federation currency would be thirty hundred thousand Star Coins, yet for the now fragmented Federation, the black market price reached fifty hundred thousand Star Coins.

This was indeed a rather exaggerated number.

Mu Fan's eyelids drooped, neither accepting nor denying.

Time passed one second, two seconds... five seconds.

"Deal."

"Money first." Jude smiled, extending his oversized hand.

Mu Fan casually tossed over a card.

Anonymous card, hundred thousand points.

When he bought that necklace for Nuonuo, he was left without any money.

And the funds for this card...

From Loki Heavy Industry.

Accompanied by information inexplicably sent from a remote Loki Heavy Industry outpost half a month ago.

He unexpectedly received 5% shares of Loki Heavy Industry, along with a mysterious text image, the image contained characters not belonging to the Federation or Outer Domain Galaxy.

That was Wang Lingfeng's gift.

Such a sudden and unexpected gift.

A father, before dying, entrusted the last hope of finding his daughter to the one he once looked down upon.

"Awesome." Jude blinked, his ugly eyelids covering the faint blue glow in his eyes.

"Three years ago, this relic appeared, codenamed [Steel], first, I need to tell you why it's codenamed this way..."
