Strange Characters

Roland dealt with the Hedgehog-man of the Roland Space Pirate Group with remarkable ease, but it was a different story for Jaco. Combat was not Jaco's forte; he became Galactic Patrol thanks to his extraordinary eyesight.

The saying goes, "Pick the softest persimmon to crush." From a tactical perspective, taking down the weaker party first, then concentrating firepower to encircle and annihilate the stronger one, is a clever way to win. After all, taking down the weak doesn't take much time, but if the weak interfere while you're focused on dealing with the strong, it's very frustrating.

The battlefield still needs to be cleaned up!

Unable to gain any advantage from Roland, some of the Hedgehog-man turned their attacks on Jaco.

Whoosh whoosh!

Jaco picked up his laser weapon and fired it continuously. Suddenly, a dark figure appeared in front of him. Jaco saw the other party's movements clearly, but his body couldn't react in time. With a bang, he was kicked far away by the other party's violent flying kick.

Jaco scrambled to his feet, looking disheveled, and continued his attack with the laser weapon.

"Roland, come help me! I can't hold on any longer!" After several attempts to break through, Jaco shouted, drenched in sweat.

"They've arrived."

A soft voice traveled through radio waves to Jak's ears, and the next second, Luo Lanfeng's handsome figure appeared beside Jak.

Seeing Roland arrive to his rescue, Jaco's spirits lifted. He then watched as Roland casually unleashed his fists and feet, creating countless afterimages as the aliens who had been surrounding him were all repelled.

"Wow, amazing!"

Boom! Boom boom!

A violent explosion occurred on the desolate planet. Although the lack of an atmosphere prevented the explosion from producing a loud roar, the scene was still devastating. Dense light rose from the ground, accompanied by a dazzling shockwave that shot into the sky, creating a huge crater. In a matter of moments, the Roland Space Pirate Group and their spaceship were completely destroyed by Roland.

"Phew... finally, a big problem is solved."

Witnessing the destruction of the Roland Space Pirate Group firsthand, Jaco, wiping the sweat from his brow, exclaimed excitedly, "If the Galactic King knew the Roland Space Pirate Group had been wiped out, he would be overjoyed. The reward would be substantial, and he might even let me oversee an additional star sector. This time, we owe it all to you, Roland."

"No problem, let's find the treasure on Planet Zien first."

"Yes, yes."

Jaco nodded repeatedly, knowing that finding the treasure would prevent him from being criticized by the Galactic King.

However, the previous explosion had completely devastated the site, with the wreckage of the Roland Space Pirate Group' ship and their looted valuables scattered everywhere, making it difficult to find the treasure on the Planet Zien.

Fortunately, Jaco had excellent eyesight. After searching through the ruins for a while, he finally found the iron box containing the treasure of the Planet Zien among a pile of rubble.

Carefully cradling the metal box in his arms and gently brushing off the dust, Jaco handed it to Roland: "It's agreed that you can only open it and take a look, then return it to me untouched."

"Don't worry," Roland replied, taking the box from Jaco's hand.

"This is the treasure of Planet Zien? I wonder what's inside..."

My gaze was fixed on the iron box. It wasn't very big, and it felt quite light in my hand. Its surface was shiny and silvery, and I wondered what material it was made of.

Roland picked up the iron box and placed it on a protruding rock. He then glanced at Jaco and noticed that after handing over the box, the guy had focused on collecting the scattered coins among the ruins, rummaging through the rubble. The scattered Kongjin and Xijin were hard currency; since they were looted by the Roland Space Pirate Group, they were now ownerless, and collecting them would be a considerable fortune!

Returning her gaze to the metal box, Roland pressed down on the opening, and with a push, the metal box opened, revealing a fist-sized cube inside, pale blue in color and as clear and transparent as glass.

"Just a cube?"

Roland frowned, picked up the cube and examined it from all angles, but couldn't see anything different about it.

"Is it really just an ordinary cube, or is there some other secret hidden inside?" Roland pondered for a moment, then put the cube back into the box. At this moment, he noticed something different about the box. There was a small picture on the inside of the box, which was crooked and looked like a tadpole, but it had a strange sense of familiarity.

Where have I seen this before?

Roland stared at the picture and text in deep thought.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck him, and Roland remembered seeing it somewhere before.

It was during the destruction of the God-Making Planet! On that giant iron sphere that suddenly appeared and continued to unfold! When the giant iron sphere was laid out flat, the distorted writing was exactly the same as the one here.

However, due to some kind of divine power, those words were directly converted into recognizable symbols after entering his retina. But the words in front of him, perhaps because they lacked certain energy, could not be recognized by him.

Could it be related to the ancient "God of Abundance" (a mythical figure)?

"The treasure of Planet Zil... no, the box containing the treasure has mysterious writing on it. Perhaps these writings are more meaningful than the cube-shaped treasure."

Unfortunately, Roland was unable to decipher its meaning. Although with a large amount of text, one could logically translate unfamiliar text into known text by using the frequency and order of words and phrases, the text on this box was clearly too little to form a "dictionary," let alone translate it.

"Perhaps we need to personally inquire with the Pui Clan on Planet Zien to understand the meaning behind this."

The Pui Clan are combat life forms created by the ancient Alta in response to cosmic catastrophes. The Alta have had multiple encounters with the "God of Abundance". Now, related texts have appeared in the Pui Clan's treasure box, and finding them may be the most direct way.

Record all the text on the box with a recorder, then close the box again.

"Where is the planet Jaco, Planet Zien located?"

While Jaco was busy searching for the scattered Xijin, he heard Roland's words and said, "Do you want to come with me to send the things back to Planet Zien?"

"I just need to speak with the Pui Clan."

"Great, let's go together then. Um, could you wait a moment while I gather all this money?" Jaco was reluctant to part with the Xijin. Roland nodded and sat down on a rock; he himself had no interest in the money.

The amount of money Planet Vine earns every day is unknown; wealth is just a string of fluctuating numbers to him, and it doesn't arouse his interest at all.

"You need to hurry up."

"Okay!"

Jaco laughed heartily and quickened his pace in collecting the money. About ten minutes later, Jaco had a full bag of Xijin hanging around his neck. With this money, his life would be much more comfortable. "Let's go," he said. "Planet Zien is located in the 22nd sector of the Galaxy, not close at all."

"Give me the Star Map, and I'll Instant Transmission you with me," Roland said calmly.

Jaco realized what was happening. "I forgot you could Instant Transmission..." He then manipulated the device on his wrist to display a Star Map in the sky.

Roland memorized the location of Planet Zien, then grabbed Jaco's shoulder and suddenly activated Instant Transmission. With a fleeting flash of light, the two figures disappeared into the starry sky.

Beneath the dark starry sky, only a vast expanse of ruins and spaceship wreckage remained, rippling gently in the cosmic microwave background waves...
