Although Groot shook his head in denial, his entire chin was covered in the fountain water he had just sprayed. It was now trickling down from his chin, and as he kept shaking his head, droplets flew out to both sides, completely exposing his lie.
"You drank it. I just saw you! Why are you lying?"
Rocket Raccoon mercilessly exposed Groot's lie.
On the skybridge, Chen Mo watched the two "people" arguing below, and a smile could not help appearing on his face.
Star-Lord's two future teammates were already in place. The formation of the Guardians of the Galaxy had entered its countdown!
These two strange "plants and animals," whose appearances clearly had nothing to do with humans, were none other than the future members of the Guardians of the Galaxy—Groot and Rocket Raccoon!
Rocket Raccoon below did not notice Chen Mo's gaze. Just as he was about to continue lecturing Groot about his poor hygiene, the transparent tablet in his hand suddenly rang, while a red alert flashed across its screen.
Rocket Raccoon temporarily let Groot off and raised the tablet to inspect it.
"Looks like we've got a target!"
Seeing the prompt on the screen—"Mission target detected"—Rocket Raccoon said excitedly. He immediately raised the tablet and scanned the skybridge again, which he had casually scanned before lecturing Groot.
The tablet had sounded its alert now, so the target was clearly among the people he had just scanned!
Very soon, the screen locked onto a figure standing by the skybridge—the very Star-Lord who was bidding Bereet a lingering farewell!
Looking at the enlarged image on the screen, Rocket Raccoon happily muttered to himself.
"Stupid human, let's see how much you're worth!"
As Star-Lord was locked onto, a line of information appeared below:
``` Bounty Warrant
