Do You Want to Collect a Third Infinity Stone, Beckett?

"Ah?!"

"King!"

The moment King Robin landed, Zola, who was still in a daze, instantly snapped out of it, knelt down, and prostrated herself at his feet, disregarding whether her messy red hair still conformed to the dress code of auction house staff.

"What did you say?"

Robin's appearance gave Beckett a perfectly legitimate excuse to change the subject.

Beckett disliked revealing his emotions to people he knew.

I really hate it.

Of course, this group of people did not include his adoptive father, Thanos.

Giving Zola the planetary resource card was Beckett's spur-of-the-moment idea, but it seems that the suddenly appearing Knowhere King does not appreciate his kindness.

"I think someone must have told you when you checked in that you were forbidden from damaging anything on the estate, right?"

Each manor built at the auction venue is equipped with a variety of luxurious facilities, showcasing the extravagance of Knowhere, one of the most advanced planets in the universe.

Most importantly, his reputation.

As the face of a one-star lord.

The grand event on Knowhere is about to begin. Big shots or their representatives from all over the universe who intend to participate in this auction have gathered together. Under these circumstances, whether it is for the face of the Star Lord or for... the Infinity Stones.

The reason sounds far-fetched, but for Robin, just one such far-fetched reason is enough.

Is that so?

His golden hair gradually turned jet black. Beckett walked step by step to Zola, who was still prostrate on the ground and dared not get up without orders. He bent down and took back the planetary resource card.

"They're gone."

"Hmm, oh, coming right away, Your His Highness Beckett!"

Clutching the scepter, The Other was still basking in the joy, grinning foolishly as he followed Beckett closely, just as always.

He brushed past Robin.

"I thought you were going to fight him."

Hela, who witnessed the whole thing, stared at Beckett's departing figure, a hint of disappointment in her voice.

She also wanted to see just how strong her temporary partner really was.

There will be an opportunity.

Robin's deep voice was as captivating as ever. "But not now."

"You don't want the compensation?"

"It's not time yet."

Robin, having withdrawn his gaze, glanced in a certain direction in the distance before his figure slowly disappeared from the spot.

"...Eh?"

Zola, trembling and crawling on the ground, received no response from the king for a long time. After a long while, he finally mustered up his courage and looked up, only to find that he was all alone in this desolate place.

"Jennifer, this man, it's him!"

"I saw it clearly!"

"What he's holding is the legendary Infinity Stones!!!"

At the gathering place of the Gafa rebel leaders, an excited man gesticulated wildly as he described to Jennifer was still wearing a red dress, the spectacular scene of Beckett bringing the dead back to life.

As a scholar of the Xiangluo Tribe specializing in cosmic legends, Guki was certain that what the man named Beckett possessed was the Infinity Stones their Xiangluo tribe had been searching for for millions of years.

"With him, we'll definitely be able to defeat Robin!"

"We will definitely be able to save our people!"

"If your description is correct, this Beckett is a VIP at the Cosmic Auction House. How could we possibly win him over?"

Unlike Guki's excitement, Jennifer herself was clearly more worried.

"He's already fallen out with Robin, I saw it with my own eyes!" Guki's expression became even more excited as he spoke of this.

"It seems they had a falling out over some compensation issue, but I didn't hear the specifics clearly."

"In short, that man named Beckett is now preparing to leave Gafa because he has fallen out with Robin. Jennifer, if we don't seize this opportunity, we won't be able to do anything once he leaves Gafa completely."

Time was of the essence, the allure of the Infinity Stones and the mission to save her people forced Jennifer to make a decision after three seconds.

And!

The Infinity Stones were simply too tempting for her.

Her teacher once said that even with her current strength and thorough preparation, she wouldn't have a 100% chance of winning against Robin.

Unless she finds the legendary Infinity Stones.

Even if it's just one.

Only...

What leverage does she have to get this man who possesses the Infinity Stones to help her?

Jennifer's gaze shifted to the other side of the lobby, to the flowers he had given her before his wild revelry with Ego the night before.

She was very touched, so she chose to break up with him after the party.

She couldn't let the man she loved be implicated.

She would prefer to return to Ego's side as the new Lord of Gafa after the plan succeeds.

Or, never go back.

Where is he now?

In any case, we should at least try to get in touch with it first before making any decisions.

When Beckett arrived at his warship's location with The Other following behind, he was surprised to find that his extremely cool and stylish warship was nowhere to be found.

"Woz is locating—"

"No, no need." Beckett crouched down and picked up a small chip from the center of the dock.

"Woz is cracking it..."

"Crack complete."

A map suddenly appeared on the azure screen, and the endpoint of the map was the icon of his personal warship.

"Interesting."

Beckett crushed the chip into pieces and walked to the location marked on Woz's screen.

A magnificent castle.

Beckett pushed open the door, and the first thing that caught his eye was that eye-catching warship.

Beside the warship, Jennifer, dressed in a red dress, had been waiting for quite some time.

"Jennifer?"

Seeing the face he had studied for half the night, Beckett subconsciously said her name.

"It seems I can skip the self-introduction step?"

Jennifer was clearly surprised that Beckett knew her name.

She doesn't believe her reputation has spread to the Centaurus Galaxy.

The only possibility is that Beckett heard about himself from Robin.

After all, they are VIPs at the auction.

Do you know what the consequences of stealing are?

Beckett squinted, and an invisible wave of energy rose from beneath his feet.

"I'm sorry, please forgive me for only being able to meet you this way," Jennifer said apologetically.

She wouldn't dare to appear openly on the streets of Gafa now.

"Apologize with your death."

Beckett remained unmoved, extending his right hand and focusing the energy gathered in his palm firmly on Jennifer, who looked apologetic.

"I'm here to discuss a deal with you."

"I know you have two Infinity Stones, so I wonder if you'd be interested in collecting a third?"

Jennifer's face showed no fear.

"The third one?"

"Yes, the third one, the Soul Stone."
