Nova Corps (Second Update)

Ten thousand light-years away from the Milky Way, there is a Galaxy called Kalo.

The Kalo Galaxy is the headquarters of the Peace Alliance and the Nova Corps.

The Peace Alliance is composed of all peace-loving forces. It has many members, but only one military force: the Nova Corps.

The Nova Corps' headquarters is located on a Planet called Peace Star.

At this moment, Gamora, Star-Lord, Rocket Raccoon, Groot, Drax the Destroyer, and the other two members of the Guardians of the Galaxy arrived here to submit their newly completed mission.

A moment later, Rocket Raccoon piloted the small spaceship and slowly landed at the spaceship port. Then, he took the space elevator and arrived on the surface of the planet.

It's afternoon here, and the sun on the horizon is casting an orange-red glow as it slowly sets in the west.

After stepping out of the space elevator, Star-Lord and the other four saw people coming and going.

Some have green skin, some have blue skin, and some have purple skin. You can find people with all sorts of skin here, and there are even quite a few non-humans.

According to statistics from the Peace Alliance, there are at least 1,314 different species of people from different planets living on the Peace Star year-round.

Although this wasn't the first time Gamora had witnessed this situation, she was always filled with envy whenever she saw people of all kinds living together peacefully.

It's important to understand that under Thanos's rule, people of almost every race lived on a single Planet.

It is rare for a Planet to support more than two species of life.

Moreover, whether each race can gain more reproductive capacity depends on the collective contribution of that race.

If a race consistently ranks last in contributions for more than three consecutive years, its reproductive rights will be reduced.

She even witnessed a race perish simply because it didn't contribute enough.

This is also one of the reasons why she decided to rebel against Thanos.

Soon, the five people walked forward on the street.

Leading the way is Rocket Raccoon, the shooter and pilot of the Guardians of the Galaxy. He is only about one meter tall and looks like a yellow raccoon that walks upright. He always carries a power gun and Rocket that are as tall as him.

He possesses abilities far exceeding those of an ordinary raccoon, including super speed, Super Agility, super vision, super hearing, super touch, and super sharp claws.

He was also a skilled pilot and sharpshooter, familiar with the use of various weapons. However, he was also greedy, and could not help but drool whenever he saw anything valuable.

Walking next to Rocket Raccoon is Groot that is over two meters tall.

He is a member of the Flora Colossus, possessing high intelligence and the unique physiological characteristics of tree people, including super regenerative abilities.

As long as Groot has some branches remaining, he can grow by watering and fertilizing them, thus gaining the ability to revive.

In addition, Groot possesses Super Strength and defense, can grow into a giant through self-growth, and can stretch his body parts as freely as rubber, allowing his tree-formed body to extend freely to attack enemies.

It can also control other plants and treat others by spreading spores.

Most Flora Colossus possess a conquering and warlike mentality, but Groot is an exception. He has a peaceful heart and a dull appearance, only ever following Rocket Raccoon around.

Walking in the middle of the group were Gamora and Star-Lord.

Gamora was still the same as before, with green skin, long wine-red hair, a black tight-fitting leather outfit, and two Dagger hanging from her thighs.

She walks down the street with a swaying gait, always attracting a lot of attention.

However, if we underestimate her like that, everyone will suffer.

Because of her exceptional fighting skills and Superhuman Level strength, her best achievement was assassinating Planetary Level powerhouse, making her a well-known figure throughout the universe.

Well, or rather, Thanos's henchmen are all quite famous in the universe.

As a newly emerging power, bloodshed and war are inevitable in the process of its rise.

Star-Lord beside Gamora remained unchanged, with his usual nonchalant attitude, his eyes frequently glancing at the scantily clad beauties, seemingly having completely forgotten the death of his previous female companion.

At this moment, he had changed out of his Ravagers suit into a brown leather jacket.

After all, this is the Peace Star, the headquarters of the Nova Corps. If he were still wearing the Ravagers suit, he probably wouldn't even be able to get off the Spaceship.

At the very back of the group is Drax the Destroyer.

He was nearly two meters tall, with gray skin, but covered in red marks, making him look extremely fierce.

At this moment, he was shirtless, walking sideways on the road like a crab, acting as if the King of Heaven was number one and he was number two.

That makes sense; with his near -Planetary Level strength, he's the strongest member of the team unless Star-Lord uses any special abilities.

A moment later, the five of them arrived at the entrance of the mission center lobby.

Just then, Gamora suddenly froze.

Because a new bounty is being displayed on the mission center lobby screen.

It was Gamora who placed the bounty, worth fifty million Cosmic Credits.

Although there are many forces in the universe, including the Three Great Empires and the Ten Great Alliances, the Cosmic Credits issued by the Trade Federation is the most valuable currency in the entire universe.

Because the Trade Federation values reputation above all else, the Cosmic Credits is unlikely to depreciate.

After all, Trade Federation rely on trade for their livelihood. If their currency prices lack credibility, who would want to trade with them?

Fifty million Cosmic Credits can be exchanged for approximately 130 million Peace Credits, a value that makes everyone envious.

Keep in mind that their vehicle, that small Spaceship, only cost seventy million Cosmic Credits.

Star-Lord was the quickest to react.

He turned to Gamora with a very grim expression and asked, "Are you Thanos's daughter?"

Rocket Raccoon's eyes immediately lit up as he looked at Gamora. Being rather greedy, he also had some inappropriate thoughts.

Of the team, only Groot and Drax remained unresponsive to the bounty.

Groot didn't care at all because he had no concept of money.

Drax, on the other hand, couldn't read the words on the bounty, so he had no idea why Star-Lord was so excited.

If it were any other woman, facing her companion's questioning and her father's bounty, she would probably have panicked long ago.

But Gamora simply said, "What? You want to use me to exchange for a bounty?"

Before Star-Lord could speak, Rocket Raccoon blurted out, "I heard your father destroyed Xandar and has a bounty of one billion. Shall we go for something big?"

Clearly, he already considered Gamora a partner, so he had no intention of handing her over.

Star-Lord then realized what was happening and immediately shook his head.

"No, I'm just so amazed. How could that ugly woman have such a beautiful daughter?"

Like Rocket Raccoon, after fighting side by side for so long, he had long regarded Gamora as a partner, so he suppressed some of his thoughts.

Besides, even if he did have some ideas, it wouldn't matter, because he simply couldn't beat Gamora.
