Belanger's Assistance
The fall of two celestial beings signifies that the true struggle between the two planes has begun.
Gu Ding and his group were also aware of this.
"We must rescue Hake as soon as possible. Celestials are already falling. Once one side's Celestials are wiped out, it means the battle is basically coming to an end. If we win, we'll have some extra time while those Federal Government guys are plundering resources. But if the enemy side wins, they'll soon start cleaning up us outsiders, and then we might not have enough time to rescue Hake." Miko expressed her concerns after learning of the fall of two Celestials.
"Miko right. Once all the gods on our side fall, no one will be able to stop the enemy gods' attacks. The power of gods is on a completely different level from that of true gods. At that time, the battle will be one-sided, and we invaders will only be slaughtered." The Sea Emperor knew that Miko's concerns were not unfounded.
"How far are we from the coordinates given by Belanger?" Gu Ding realized this as well and asked.
"There are still over two hundred cosmic distances to go. At our current speed, it will take another two days to arrive. If we use ultra-long-distance teleportation, we can get there in about an hour, although it will consume a little more energy." Sea Emperor had calculated the time well in advance.
"I understand. I'll go tell Belanger." Gu Ding nodded and walked towards the cockpit.
Inside the cockpit, Belanger was manually controlling the spaceship, maneuvering it through the air in various ways. Seeing Gu Ding enter, he didn't stop what he was doing. "Your spaceship is really amazing. It can do all sorts of tricks."
"Leave the rest to me. Two celestial beings have already fallen, and we don't have much time left," Gu Ding said directly, not intending to beat around the bush.
"Well, alright then." Belanger was fairly content, after all, he had been playing for several days. It was understandable that Gu Ding was eager to take over at this point.
After giving up the driver's seat, Belanger didn't leave immediately. Instead, he struck up a conversation with Gu Ding.
"If I'm not mistaken, the two fallen Celestials should both be from your camp. Our family's Elder Council all possess extremely strong cross-level Combat Strength. If they encounter your people, as long as they are not surrounded, the possibility of them falling is extremely small. However, the number of Celestials left behind by our family is far greater than the number of Celestials you sent on this expedition, and this plane is our family's main battlefield. Being surrounded should not be a likely occurrence."
"I don't care at all about the life or death of those Ultra-Left Faction in the Federal Government. I'm only worried that after they all fall, we will also be blocked by the gods, and it will be difficult to rescue Hake then." Gu Ding had absolutely no good impression of those Ultra-Left Faction.
"It seems that in your plane of existence, the Interstellar Pirate and the Federal Government are really at odds," Belanger said with a smile after hearing Gu Ding's words.
"I have no problem with most people in the Federal Government, but I really don't like this group." Gu Ding was telling the truth. Even though he was hostile to the Federal Government, he never hated anyone in the Federal Government, including those who had once hunted down the Gu Ding Pirate Crew.
"Now I finally understand why Hake is so devoted to you." After a moment of silence, Belanger spoke again, "I know you don't care what Hake has been through, but how can you be sure someone can be trusted if you don't know their past? Hake is my own brother, and I can tell you, he has many unspeakable secrets. Some of them even shocked me when I first learned them."
"Everyone has secrets, don't they? A person's past experiences are not important. What's important is the Hake I know, my companion. I have the same trust in all my companions, and I will protect their trust in me. That's why, even knowing how terrifying your family's power is, I still chose to venture into the lion's den. In fact, even without the Federal Government's campaign, I would have come this time." Gu Ding's reply left Belanger completely silent.
After a long silence, Belanger spoke again, "Hake is really lucky to have met you all. But have you ever considered that perhaps one day in the future he will betray your trust?"
"My Old Dad once told me not to worry about things that haven't happened yet, because if they haven't happened yet, it means there are all sorts of potential possibilities. As long as you manage the present well, things will definitely develop in a positive direction." Gu Ding didn't care at all about Belanger's words.
"You have a good father." A hint of envy flashed in Belanger's eyes. After saying this, he silently turned and walked away.
"Gu Ding, have you really not thought about the future? Perhaps one day, some members of the Pirate Crew will leave, some will perish, and the Pirate Crew will disband for some reason..." The Sea Emperor's tone was filled with sadness.
"Of course I've thought about the future, but I'm not worried about it. The future I want is one where we all walk together, and everyone gets what they want. I'm working towards that future, and I will continue to work towards it. As for the things you mentioned, I know they could happen, which is why I'm working hard to manage the present and prevent them from happening. If they do happen in the end, I won't regret it, because I've worked for a better future." Gu Ding's words left the Sea Emperor speechless.
An hour passed quickly, and the spaceship's long-distance teleportation was completed. Gu Ding called Belanger back to the pilot's seat.
Outside the spaceship, which was clearly the core territory of the Dees Family, more than twenty warships surrounded it almost at the same time the black behemoth appeared.
"Warning! Your spaceship has entered the core territory of the Dees Family. Please show your identification immediately. If you are not a member of the Dees Family, please leave immediately, or we will launch an attack."
The warning from the lead warship was clearly transmitted to the sound receiving system of the warship where Gu Ding and his men were located.
"Don't be nervous, it's me, Belanger Dess." Belanger said, connecting the video projector, and the image was quickly transmitted to the other party's spaceship.
"Tenth Young Master, we apologize, we didn't know you were you." Upon seeing Belanger, the team leader's attitude immediately became respectful.
"It's alright, I've switched to a new spaceship, it's normal that you don't recognize it," Belanger said, waving his hand. "Let me in!"
"Yes, Tenth Young Master." The leader immediately gave the order, and the more than twenty warships that had been surrounding the black warship moved aside.
With an arrogant air, Belanger abruptly turned off the video and piloted his spaceship towards the star system where Black Hell was located... (To be continued~^~)
