Ricky's full Ricky Onassis, he is thirty-three years old, and the new head of the Onassis Family. The Onassis Family is one of the ten richest families in the Tianhe Star Region.

This family has a long history, starting out by making spaceship parts about 500 years ago and continuing to this day.

Today, the Onassis Family is not only in the parts business but also in the spaceship business, ranking fourth in terms of assets among the top ten richest families.

Ricky, as the new head of the family, is quite a celebrity in the Tianhe Star Region. However, many people know that he has a hobby: collecting various historical spaceships. But what many don't know is that he has secretly done many shady things to acquire some spaceships at low prices.

He would frame ship owners and imprison them, then purchase the ships through internal Federal Government, or hire Interstellar Pirate to rob them directly, or hire someone to pose as a ship expert and deceive the owner into believing the ship had hidden dangers, persuading them to sell it at a low price. He had done similar things dozens of times, and almost always succeeded.

But this time, watching the video of Gu Ding beating up Te Er, and especially since Te Er even mentioned his name, enraged Ricky. He was furious for two reasons: firstly, the chances of getting the spaceship were slim, and secondly, Te Er had ruined his reputation.

It's not that none of the other major families have cooperated with Te Er; however, those who have done so keep quiet because Te Er 'Te Er character is truly appalling. He's like a bedbug—whoever gets involved with him is doomed. Being associated with him would bring shame upon the entire family.

He wasn't worried about Gu Ding and Liliath retaliating against him, because families with such a strong foundation always had their own fighting force. If Gu Ding were truly foolish enough to break into his mansion, there would only be one outcome: he would be killed on the spot by his own men.

Little did he know that he was indeed remembered by Gu Ding and Liliath.

Before Gu Ding was a projection of a mansion, a grand residence built by the Onassis Family on Fengyuan Star. This mansion was newly constructed in recent years, both for negotiations on a newly launched Gene Serum project and to cultivate good relations with the ruling class of Fengyuan Star.

Ricky had been discussing a new project with a Potion Factory for the past few days. He and Gu Ding arrived at Fengyuan Star Port on the same day, almost at the same time, and happened to see Gu Ding's Grey Eagle, which immediately piqued his interest. That's how the subsequent events unfolded.

"This guy always brings a lot of people with him when he goes out." Gu Ding looked at the number of guards displayed on the projector and realized that it was indeed much more than he had imagined.

"He is the head of the entire Onassis Family, and his family will not allow him to suffer any mishap." Liliath seemed unsurprised by this situation.

"There are a total of thirty-six guards, twenty-three of whom are Sixth-Order Gene Body, twelve are Seventh Order Gene Body, and one is Eighth Order Gene Body. All the doors and windows of the house are guarded, making it unlikely that you can sneak in silently," Sea Emperor explained his analysis. "Even if you did manage to sneak in, it would be very difficult, because Ricky Onassis himself is also Sixth-Order Gene Body."

"These wealthy people hire bodyguards who are mostly retired soldiers, some even from the Elite Legion. These men are professionally trained, extremely experienced in combat, and each has at least dozens of lives on their hands. Even among Sixth-Order Gene Body, each of these guys is definitely stronger Te Er." Liliath not only knew the bodyguard industry well, but also knew people like Ricky very well. "Judging from the current situation, it's almost impossible for us to break in. If we alert even one bodyguard, we'll be surrounded and attacked. People like Ricky don't leave themselves any future trouble. He won't hand over the people who attacked his mansion to the Federal Army for a reward; he'll just kill them on the spot and leave no trace. Even if the Federal Government finds out, they'll just turn a blind eye."

"That guy provoked us, I'm not going to let him get away with this. At the very least, I have to teach him a lesson." After saying that, Gu Ding was silent for a moment, seemingly thinking about how to teach Ricky a lesson and still get away with it.

After a moment, he asked, "Sea Emperor, besides Ricky and his bodyguards, are there any other people in his mansion?"

"No, this mansion is just a branch that was built in recent years to facilitate business negotiations. No one lives here normally, and only a few cleaners come to clean it once a week," the Sea Emperor explained. "Moreover, that Eighth Order Gene Body is not only one of the bodyguards, but also their butler. During Ricky's time on Fengyuan Star, the butler handled everything, including cooking, making tea, and arranging business negotiations."

"This shows that this guy is extremely cautious. He's worried that someone might poison him, and he doesn't like to delegate business matters, preferring to handle everything himself." Liliath could roughly understand what kind of person Ricky was from just a few words of description.

"Sea Emperor, do we have any cannons on our spaceship powerful enough to destroy his mansion without endangering nearby civilian homes?" Gu Ding seemed to have an idea.

"I can adjust it; the smallest cannon should be able to do it," the Sea Emperor replied.

"You wouldn't be thinking of..." Liliath had already guessed what Gu Ding was planning after hearing Gu Ding's words.

"That's right. Since we can't sneak in and teach him a lesson, bombarding his mansion is a good option. His house is worth at least 50 billion Star Coin, right? He wants my spaceship, so I'll just give him a cannonball." Gu Ding grinned.

"If you do that, the authorities on Fengyuan Star will Blacklist you and immediately notify the Federal Government to hunt you down." Liliath felt that Gu Ding might not know the seriousness of the matter.

"Don't forget, we're Interstellar Pirate, and the Federal Government is already hunting us. Isn't a higher bounty exactly what we want? Besides, didn't you want them to change the photo on the Wanted Order poster? Maybe they'll change it this time when the Bounty Order is updated." Gu Ding was well aware of the consequences of doing so, but the increase in the bounty was the main reason he made this decision.

"Those bastards who made the Wanted Order posters..." Liliath felt extremely annoyed just thinking about the pouting photo on the Wanted Order. "Fine, for the sake of the photo, I vote for this operation!"

"This journey seems to be getting more and more interesting..." the Sea Emperor murmured to himself.

(Happy Labor Day everyone! Wishing all my brothers and sisters a happy May Day holiday, with lots of fun, delicious food, and enjoyable reading...)
