Drax suddenly turned to look at Rudeus, who stopped talking, but then continued.
"Okay, you don't care, but what I'm trying to say is that she betrayed Ronan, and Ronan will come after her."
"Once Ronan comes looking for you, then you can..."
[Rudius, having said this, ran his hand across his neck.]
Why did I put my finger on Ronan's throat?
Drax, not understanding Rudius's meaning, asked in confusion.
【"What?"】
"Pfft!"
Shirogane Miyuki had just finished drinking his coffee when he saw Drax's soul-searching question on the screen, and choked on his coffee.
"Cough cough cough, cough cough cough, I, cough cough cough."
Shirogane Miyuki coughed and patted his chest with a laugh.
"This Drax is quite the opposite of what I expected."
Looking at Drax on the light screen, Ishigami Yu said, "Considering Drax's earlier analogy of comparing himself to a dog, Ishigami Yu understands."
Drax is a very intelligent man.
Rudeus initially thought Drax was teasing him, but seeing Drax's serious expression, he realized that Drax genuinely hadn't understood him.
"It's just a gesture."
["This gesture means you've slit his throat."]
Rudius explained it again, adding that he never imagined he would one day be explaining the meaning of this gesture to someone else.
"I don't want to slit his throat."
"I'll chop his head off with one stroke."
Upon seeing Drax's words on the light screen, Zhuge Cong suddenly thought of Thor.
This is practically an implication, implying that when Thor first appeared, he should have used his Stormbreaker to cut Thanos's head, not his chest.
Of course, Thor later made up for this regret by chopping off Thanos's head with an axe.
"No, it's just a general hand gesture; it means 'kill.'"
"You know what this gesture means, right?"
Rudius made the gesture again and addressed the prisoner beside him.
"I know, I know."
"Everyone knows that."
Rudius spoke to Drax.
"I don't know, I don't know."
Suddenly, the prisoner changed his story again, perhaps because he was afraid of Drax again. Rudyus, on the other hand, was speechless and wanted to die. He just wanted to be a hero and save the damsel in distress, why was there so much trouble?
524: Minoru Kageno: Will we win? We will win.
"What I'm trying to say is, spare her life in the end, don't help your enemy."
Rudeus looked at Drax and said, "Rudeus feels he's about to persuade this brilliant man."
Drax pondered Rudius's words, then glanced at Alice, whom he had pinned against the wall.
After a fierce internal struggle, Drax decided to believe the young man's words and let the woman go.
Drax released his grip on Alice, who fell off the wall and landed on the ground, gasping for breath.
"Cough cough cough."
Drax looked at the knife in his hand and found it strangely pleasing to the eye, so he spoke to the prisoner.
"I like your knife, I'll take it."
As for Drax's words, the prisoner naturally had no grounds for objection.
"That's clearly their favorite knife too."
The prisoner also spoke in a low, aggrieved voice.
"One is Deadpool, and the other is Guardians of the Galaxy. They both give me a comedic feeling."
"Compared to the content of other light screens, these two are always quite comical, don't you think?"
Yuu Otosaka said, looking at Drax on the light screen.
"Indeed, both of these films feature very obvious comedic characters."
"Although there are other contents in the light screens as well, they don't feel as interesting as those in Guardians of the Galaxy and Deadpool."
Nao Tomori also agreed with Yuu Otosaka's point of view.
"But could this Guardians of the Galaxy really be Rudeus and his crew?"
"They," Tomori Nao said with some doubt. As for who "they" Tomori Nao was referring to, Otosaka Yuu and Takagi Joshiro both knew who they were.
However, they also felt that it was a little unreliable.
"Let's wait and see, maybe things will take a turn for the better."
Takashiro adjusted his glasses and said that he wasn't the type of person who would try to guess what would happen next, because he knew the matter would be resolved sooner or later. He preferred to think about the hidden details.
"Listen, I don't care whether you live or die."
Rudius spoke to Alice, who was walking ahead of him.
"Then why did you stop that big guy?"
Alice turned to look at Rudeus and said...
To be honest, Rudius was very upset. He didn't know why, even though he had saved her, she wasn't grateful and instead blamed him for going to all that trouble.
"It's simple, because you know who you can sell the Cosmic Orb to."
Rudeus looked at Alice and said, "This is the real reason why I saved Alice. As for rescuing a damsel in distress, Rudeus admitted that he did indeed think Alice was very beautiful."
As for the Cosmic Orb, Rudeus felt that since he had gone to so much trouble to acquire it, how could he not fetch a good price? Moreover, Rudeus also sensed that this Cosmic Orb seemed to be a hot potato.
"We're all trapped here with that thing, how much do you want for it?"
[Iris looked at Rudeus and said, Rudeus smiled confidently upon hearing Iris's words, then looked at Rocket Raccoon at his feet and said.]
"The guy next to me, Rocket, has successfully escaped from prison 22 times."
"We can definitely get out of here."
[Rocket Raccoon, leaning against the railing with his arms crossed, confidently spoke.]
"Then, we'll head straight for Yondu to collect your bounty."
Rudius ignored Rocket Raccoon's follow-up words and instead asked Alice a question.
"How much is your buyer planning to pay for my Cosmic Orb?"
[This is the important part, because Rudius wants to use the money he would have spent on the Phantom Orb to get Rocket Raccoon to help him escape from prison.]
[After hearing Rudeus's question, Alice pondered for a moment before replying.]
"Four billion."
【"How many!"】
[Rocket Raccoon, upon hearing Alice mention four billion, wondered if he had misheard.]
"Holy shit."
Rudyus was also taken aback by the numbers Alice revealed.
"That's true. When Rocket Raccoon saw Rudyus's 40,000 bounty, he said he was going to get rich. How much is 4 billion?"
"I just don't know how much purchasing power currency has in the universe."
Natsuki Subaru thought to himself as he watched Rocket Raccoon lose his composure on the screen because of Alice's mention of four billion.
"And since it can be bought for four billion, and it has the name 'Cosmic Orb,' could it really be related to the Tesseract in Asgard?"
Cai Yueang thought.
"If the Cosmic Orb is really related to the Cosmic Cube, then it's probably only people like Rudeus who don't know the meaning of the Cosmic Orb. Otherwise, we'd probably have to add a few zeros to that."
Natsuki Subaru felt that it might even be impossible to buy with money, because power was far more important than money.
"The Orb of Truth is my chance to escape Thanos and Ronan. If you can break out, I'll take you straight to the buyer."
"Then we'll split the profits three ways."
Alice spoke.
"I am Groot."
As Alice finished speaking, a deep, treant-like voice rang out. The group looked over and saw that Groot, the treant, had woken up sometime earlier and was watching them.
