Chapter 123 Sir, I'm worried about leaving you here all alone!

Chapter 123 Commander, I'm worried about leaving you here alone!
Although the raiders were numerous and powerful, they were ultimately just a mob.

These interstellar bandits are good at bullying civilian caravans, but when they face well-trained Asgardian warriors, it's like street thugs running into special forces—they're not even in the same league.

Their energy guns struck the shields of the Asgardian warriors, sparks flying, but not even leaving a mark.

In contrast, an Asgardian warrior could easily pierce through them with a spear; their armor was as flimsy as paper and offered no protection whatsoever.

Quill was no slouch either. With the help of two high-tech guns and various gadgets, he dodged and weaved across the battlefield, quickly taking down a small group of raiders.

In the middle of the fight, one of the raiders on the other side suddenly widened his eyes, pointed at Quill and shouted, "Wait, I think I recognize you. You're that kid under Yondu, what's his name again, Star-Lord?"

“You’ve mistaken me for someone else. I am his half-brother.”

Quill remained unfazed and shot the guy down to avoid revealing his true identity.

Just then, the ground suddenly trembled.

Quill turned around and saw a giant alien, nearly three meters tall and made entirely of stone, charging towards him. Its spiked club, thicker than a man's waist, swung around with a whooshing sound and came crashing down on his head!

He was so terrified that he didn't care about his image anymore and scrambled to the side to avoid it.

Almost simultaneously, the spiked club slammed heavily into the spot where he had just been standing, sending rubble flying and leaving a shocking crater.

Quill scrambled to his feet and, without a second thought, fired several shots at the stone golem's chest. The energy bullets were like tickles, leaving only a few charred marks, and the giant didn't even flinch.

Several Asgardian warriors rushed to help, but the stone golem swung his mace and sent them flying.

With that kind of strength, he's at least at the elite monster level.

The stone golem completely ignored the Asgardian warriors, its two stone eyes fixed on Quell, and it strode heavily after him.

Why are you chasing me?!

Quill ran for his life, and even the Asgardian warrior with his physique was knocked away by a single blow. If his small body had been hit, wouldn't he have turned into a meat pie on the spot?
But the stone man was fixated on him and relentlessly pursued him.

Quill was the most conspicuous guy on the entire battlefield.

The Asgardian warriors were all uniformly equipped with glittering gold gear, but he was dressed in shabby raider attire and even stabbed his own people in the back. In the eyes of the raiders, this traitor was more hateful than the enemy.

Du Mu, observing Quill's disheveled state as he was chased around, came to a conclusion.

Those named Peter are indeed born with a constitution that attracts hatred.

"Come over here."

Du Mu shouted something to Quill.

Without hesitation, Quill rushed towards Du Mu's location, drawing the stone golem behind him with him.

As a native of Earth, he perfectly inherited the fine traditions of his hometown, and he had no qualms about ripping off his fellow villagers.

"Fellow villager! I'm entrusting this to you! I believe in you!"

Quill darted past Du Mu.

When the stone man saw someone suddenly blocking his way, he roared and immediately raised his spiked club and smashed it down!

Du Mu neither dodged nor flinched; with a flick of his right hand, an ancient-looking battle axe appeared out of thin air.

Bang————!
The spiked club and the battle axe collided heavily, producing a dull thud.

With one hand holding the axe, Du Mu steadily blocked the stone giant's full-force attack, his body remaining completely still. Even the Asgardian soldiers couldn't withstand this power, yet he effortlessly caught it with one hand.

Upon seeing this, the stone golem instantly crashed, as if its brain had been taken over by other stone golems.

Just as the stone man was stunned, Du Mu easily deflected the stone man's spiked club, his arm muscles bulging, and the axe blade drew a cold light in the air, heading straight for the stone man!

boom!
The stone golem, which had been so menacing just moments before, suddenly exploded as if it had been hit by an explosive device. Its massive body instantly disintegrated, turning into countless fragments that scattered across the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

Believe it or not, dying was quite convenient; they didn't even need to build a grave, just piled up a stone mound.

Quill was completely dumbfounded.

My fellow villager is just too amazing!
In his mind, shouldn't all Earthlings be like him, technically skilled individuals who make a living by using their brains?
Could it be that humans secretly evolved without taking themselves along?
"Fellow countryman, are you really from Earth?" Quill asked cautiously, his tone full of doubt.

Du Mu nodded: "Of course, I am a genuine Earthling."

"Then what's the deal with your strength?"

Quill was not ashamed to ask questions.

He left Earth too early and didn't know much about the situation there. Perhaps Earthlings possess some special ability that he doesn't know about, allowing him to transform into a super-human and gain the same powerful strength as Du Mu.

Although he has always touted himself as an intelligent fighter, it's not impossible for him to occasionally change his style and become a mindless, reckless puncher.

Du Mu smiled slightly: "You know Captain America, right?"

"I know, does that mean you're a super soldier injected with the serum, just like Captain America?"

When Quill was a child, he heard the legend of Captain America and immediately thought that Du Mu was a cyborg like Captain America.

Du Mu shook his head: "No, I mean I can easily defeat Captain America. I don't mean anything by it, I'm just showing off."

Quill: "."

I really want to punch this guy, but I can't beat him. What should I do?
As the stone golem turned into a pile of stones, the remaining morale of the raiders completely collapsed. Someone threw their weapon on the ground first, and then, like dominoes falling, the sound of surrender quickly spread.

The thought of putting up a last-ditch resistance vanished in the face of such an overwhelming disparity in strength.

Even their strongest stone golem was instantly reduced to dust. For these grunts to continue resisting would be suicidal. In this interstellar space, survival is always the top priority.

With this, the unrest caused by the raiders in Vanaheim was completely quelled.

Even if one or two escapees remain hiding in some corner, they won't cause any trouble. The locals of Huanaheim can handle it themselves.

The next moment, Du Mu heard the system's voice.

The mission 'Suppressing the Rebellion in the Nine Realms' has been completed.

[Start calculating contribution points.]

[The rewards are as follows: 20000 experience points, 7 free attribute points, 20 Asgardian affinity, the skill 'Barbecue', the equipment 'Bear Grylls', the item 'Cosmetic Surgery Fluid', and the item 'God of Wealth's Challenge Token']

[Skill: Grilling (An essential skill for hunters. Any meat can be grilled into grilled meat. After eating, you will receive different buffs or debuffs depending on the quality of the meat. Note: Undercooked or burnt grilled meat will only cause stomach upset.)]

[Equipment: Bear Grylls' knife (remove the head; the rest is mostly protein, so feel free to consume)]

[Props: Reconstructive fluid (applied to the body, it can reshape the affected area; of course, this requires skillful hands)]

[Item: God of Wealth's Challenge Token (Can initiate a one-on-one duel against a designated target within your line of sight. No one else can interfere with your battle. Please grant me, God of Wealth, permission to duel him.)] Clearly, Thor and the other team leaders had already quelled the unrest in other places.

After all, leading Asgard's most elite main force, their efficiency was naturally far superior to that of their small squad of three hundred men.

However, Du Mu did not feel any regret.

To absorb the contribution points of an entire nation is already quite impressive.

Du Mu then focused his attention on the reward.

First of all, the skill of grilling meat is simply a god-tier support skill. It's like being able to infinitely produce items that provide either buffs or debuffs, so its practicality is self-evident.

In addition, any kind of meat can be grilled to a great effect, a boon for foodies. It even looks like it could be used in conjunction with Bear Grylls' knife.

As for the cosmetic enhancement liquid, its effect is similar to remodeling, but it's completely different from the character creation data in the game system. This thing can only be created by sculpting it bit by bit with your own hands.

Real face-pinching!
Du Mu didn't consider himself very good at crafts. If he were to try, he would most likely only end up with a Cthulhu-like face, so he decided not to attempt it on himself.

The God of Wealth's Challenge Order is a great item; it forces you to duel with an enemy.

With this item, he can ignore the muscular men in the front row and directly choose the enemy's squishy back row for a one-on-one fight.

Of course, this also carries some risk. The enemy's back row might be a much stronger and more powerful character than the front row, so you have to be careful before using it.

Congratulations, player! You have successfully leveled up!

[Player: Du Mu]

[Level: 23 (2500/62000)]

[Attributes: Strength 84, Agility 42, Constitution 55, Spirit 32]

[Available free attribute points: 12]

Du Mu glanced at his personal panel and allocated his free attribute points without hesitation.

Soon, his attributes changed.

[Attributes: Strength 90, Agility 45, Constitution 55, Spirit 35]

perfect!

Looking at the neatly arranged attribute values, Du Mu felt completely at ease.

He wasn't the kind of person with severe OCD who insisted on rounding up to whole numbers, but the neat arrangement of each attribute ending in 0 or 5 was indeed much more pleasing to the eye.

Next comes the pleasant part: the inventory check.

The gains from this battle were quite substantial.

There were more than a dozen spaceships, filled with several large boxes of cosmic currency, and various equipment looted from the raiders, piled up like a small mountain, making it look like an interstellar arms market.

Quill watched with wide eyes, unable to resist swallowing hard.

So being a robber is so lucrative? Then why should I be a thief? I might as well change careers!

Of course, the main reason for such high profits is that they robbed raiders. These guys are interstellar bandits who make a living by plundering and looting, so they naturally have a lot of wealth.

However, since there were so many seized resources, how to deal with them became a thorny issue.

After all, these three hundred Asgardian warriors were not Du Mu's private army. After quelling the turmoil in the Nine Realms, they all had to return to Asgard to report back.

There were more than fifty intact raider ships in front of them. Without Asgardian warriors piloting them, it would be impossible to take them all away from Vanaheim.

After a moment's thought, Du Mu quickly came up with an idea.

It would be better to hide these spaceships in a secluded spot in Vanaheim. After all, he has already activated the teleportation point here these past few days, so he can come back and retrieve them at any time.

Thinking of this, he waved to Quill, who was selecting his spoils not far away.

"Come here for a second, I need to talk to you."

"Hey fellow villager, is there some good news?"

Quill came running over excitedly, his face beaming with anticipation.

Then, he saw a fist rapidly enlarging in front of him, and instantly lost consciousness.

Du Mu grabbed the unconscious Quill and tossed him to Skorch, instructing, "Keep an eye on him. Knock him unconscious as soon as he regains consciousness. Don't let him know anything about what happens next, understand?"

"Understood, sir!"

Du Mu knocked Quill unconscious because he didn't trust the man's character.

If the other side finds out the location of the spaceship, they might try to take it. It's better not to let them know.

In contrast, Du Mu had no such concerns about the Asgardian warriors.

It wasn't that I trusted the Asgardian warriors' character; it was mainly because these warriors from Asgard were all worldly and wealthy.

If the Rainbow Bridge weren't incapable of transporting large vehicles, they would have already brought over Asgard's magically advanced spaceships. Compared to these rogue minnows, they're like the difference between an F1 race car and a low-speed electric car.

For these Asgardian warriors who are used to driving F1 cars, even if there are many old-man cars, they are still just a bunch of old-man cars and they don't even look at them.

Immediately afterwards, Du Mu stuffed all the resources he could into the game's storage, while leaving the rest in the spaceship.

He then left behind only the most luxurious raider ship, ordering the Asgardian warriors to fly the rest of the ships to a remote mountain range. There, they used diamond pickaxes to carve out a massive, empty mine, hiding all the ships inside before sealing the entrance.

After doing all this, Skorch asked, "Sir, should we notify Heimdall to open the Rainbow Bridge and return to Asgard?"

Du Mu waved his hand: "Let them know, but you can go back now."

"what?"

Skorch was taken aback: "Sir, aren't you coming back to Asgard with us for the victory celebration?"

Du Mu shook his head: "I'm not going back. I have other things to do in Waraheim."

Skorch hesitated for a moment and said, "But sir, I'm worried about leaving you here alone!"

Du Mu smiled slightly: "I know that our time together has fostered a deep bond of camaraderie, and it's normal to feel reluctant to part. But don't worry, with my strength, I'm quite safe in Vanaheim. Besides, the raiders have all been eliminated, so Vanaheim is no longer dangerous."

Skorch opened his mouth, but swallowed the words that were about to come out.

What he really wanted to say was: It's not that I'm reluctant to part with you, sir. I'm worried that if I leave you alone in Vanaheim without us watching over you, the peace that has just been restored here might not last more than three days!
Raiders are nothing!
You are the greatest danger to Huanaheim!
