Android 18's Mission

"Huh, there's a mission about Frieza, and the location is in the South Galaxy. Frieza, isn't that the guy Goku defeated?"

A familiar name caught Android 18's attention, but unfortunately it was in the South Galaxy, such a long distance that even the most advanced spacecraft of the Sephiria Force would take a considerable amount of time to make a round trip.

"What a pity, the prize money was quite generous."

Android 18 shook her head with some regret, shifting her gaze from the mission to eliminate Frieza. At that moment, she felt a pang of envy for Askari and the others' Instant Transmission —no matter how far the distance, they could teleport there simply by sensing a presence.

"Never mind, let's skip this task for now and look at the next one."

Tilting his head, searching for a suitable mission, Android 18's wristwatch suddenly beeped urgently. Android 18 picked it up and saw that it was from the headquarters on Planet Sadala.

After the call connected, Android 18 asked, "What's the matter?"

"Lazuli, are you free right now?" Nalis's voice came from the other end of the line.

Android 18 glanced at the task list in the distance, and a clear voice replied, "I'm free!"

"Great, I have an urgent task for you."

"What mission?"

Nalis said in a gentle voice, "One of our important business partners is being targeted by his arch-enemy due to some business issues. Now, the enemy has hired experts from Galactic Assassin Organization to harm him. We hope you can go there and serve as his bodyguard for a while."

Android 18 raised a long, willow-leaf-shaped eyebrow. "Shouldn't we ask someone else for this? Wouldn't Luo Fei's Instant Transmission be much more convenient?"

We cannot contact Young Master Luo Fei right now.

"Bodyguard and similar tasks will cost extra." Android 18 didn't care what kind of task it was, as long as the money was there, everything was fine.

"Don't worry, the other party is a wealthy person and very generous. In addition to the fixed task fee, there will be a substantial bonus, which will amount to about 1200 Xijin in total."

"Okay, tell me who the mission target is?"

Upon hearing that the prize money was so generous, Android 18's eyes lit up, but he pretended to be calm and said...

"Yes, the Lannaian Guweisha is currently on Planet Stuno. If you have nothing else to do, please go there as soon as possible. This Lannaian provided a lot of help when the Sephiria Force were just starting out, and he is a rather important partner."

"So you have connections. No wonder you came to me."

Android 18 suddenly realized, a faint smile appearing on his handsome face. "Send me the planet's location, I'll go there now."

"Okay, please wait a moment."

Soon, Nalis sent over the coordinates of Planet Stuno. Android 18 glanced at them and found that it wasn't close to Planet Vine, but considering the 1200 Xijin, she could barely accept the distance.

Boarding the spaceship, under the direction of the Spaceport's commander, the spaceship slowly ascended and left Planet Vine.

As the green planet grew smaller and smaller, Android 18 raised her long legs and placed them on the control panel, crossed her arms and leaned back slightly, with strands of golden hair falling naturally down her cheeks.

Her fair fingers twirled a strand of golden hair, tucking it behind her ear. She thought to herself, "Although the Sephiria Force's ships travel very fast, it's not worth spending so much time on the road. When I have time, I'll go to Planet Yardrat and learn Instant Transmission. It will take some time, but as the saying goes, 'A skilled craftsman must first sharpen his tools.'"

"Making money is not something to be taken lightly."

Android 18 counted on her fingers, "Judging from Android 17 and Fils' situation, the wedding is just around the corner, and as the older sister, I'll have to spend a lot of money again."

"We can earn this money back at the World Martial Arts Tournament in a while."

She kept muttering to herself; who knows why she valued money so much?

Planet Stuno, the private vacation planet of Guweisha, Lannaian. For a wealthy person like him, owning several private planets is perfectly normal.

Boom!

With a deafening roar, Android 18 piloted his aircraft through the atmosphere and landed on a flat area.

Stepping onto the planet's land, a beautiful landscape nestled against mountains and beside water came into view, and the fresh air was filled with a refreshing fragrance. Android 18 glanced at the magnificent buildings in the distance, cursed the rich people under his breath, and then quickly arrived at the private castle of Guweisha.

Guweisha was already waiting in the castle. When he saw the graceful young woman Android 18, appear, he hurriedly went out to greet her. "Ah, you must be Roland's apprentice. I have prepared a sumptuous meal in the palace. Please take good care of me in the days to come."

"Um."

Android 18 hummed in agreement and nodded slightly at Guweisha.

Looking closely at the alien in front of me, I saw that it had orange-yellow skin, a round head, long fleshy whiskers on its cheeks, and was not very tall. However, it was dressed in a very flashy way, with its clothes studded with colorful gems, making it look like a nouveau riche.

The evil rich.

Should we extort a hefty sum from him? Android 18 looked at Guweisha thoughtfully, a wicked idea forming in his mind.

"Miss Android 18, this is the deposit. You only need to protect me for a month." Guweisha felt a little uneasy under Android 18's gaze, and wisely had the Smart Robot take out a leather case filled with glittering, rod-shaped metal bars.

Looking at those heavy, textured metal strips, Android 18's mood brightened, and a sweet smile appeared on her face.

"Tell me your story, how you angered someone who hired an assassin to kill you."

Guweisha rubbed his greasy, fat hands and said regretfully, "Sigh, it's all because I took a fancy to a planet, which happened to be the same planet that one of my arch-enemies also wanted. Since we already had a conflict, I couldn't resist playing a trick on him at the auction, making him spend more money."

"It only cost him an extra 10,000 Xijin. I never expected they would actually hire an assassin."

He said it with an expression that said it couldn't be that bad.

They really don't value money!

How many expensive handbags can you buy with 10,000 Xijin? If I were in that situation, I'd kill you too.

Android 18 glanced at Guweisha, knowing how much people hated the rich, but he suppressed his displeasure because of Guvisa's generosity.

Do you know when those assassins will arrive?

"I'm not sure. I did a quick investigation, and they hired seven assassins, all of whom are quite well-known on the assassin rankings," Guweisha said, looking at Android 18's slender figure. "By the way, you're probably not Saiyan. Should we find some more help? After all, their forces are quite formidable!"

"Hmph, no need. I won't even bother with a mere assassin."

Android 18 glared, and the sudden burst of power shook the entire planet. The Scouter in Guweisha Castle started beeping violently, and then all of them were destroyed because they exceeded their range.

Guweisha was so frightened that he fell to the ground.

"Enough, enough! You're just as terrifying as your teacher!"

"Compared to the teacher, I'm still lacking." Android 18 withdrew his power. "Prepare a training ground for me. I need to train after dinner, so don't disturb me unless it's absolutely necessary."

"Yes, yes, prepare immediately." Guweisha nodded hurriedly.

Watching Android 18's retreating figure, Guweisha wiped the sweat from his brow. "Roland's disciple is terrifying. Hehe, now my safety is guaranteed."

"Hmm, should we hire this lady to get rid of that Yagobu guy after the mission is over? Uh, no, no..."

P. S.: Happy Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day!
