And as he said, as the Blood Lord, he occupied many territories and indeed had many affairs to attend to every day.
Therefore, he couldn't stay in Contrasia to entertain Josie indefinitely, and Josie wasn't that arrogant.
It's already a big favor that they stayed and took care of Josie for two days.
"Oh, right, Sebastian!" Dracula said, but instead of leaving immediately, he snapped his fingers.
Immediately, a wisp of black mist rose up, and after the smoke dissipated, a young man dressed in a black tuxedo appeared not far away.
He is Sebastian, the man Dracula spoke of, as well as Dracula's servant and the steward of this Blood Lord's fortress.
“While I’m away, Mr. Kahn is the master of this place. Please take good care of him for me!” Dracula said.
“Yes, my master!” Sebastian bowed and replied.
Dracula then nodded and turned into a cloud of blood mist, disappearing from the spot.
“Kahn, sir, please feel free to ask if you need anything!” Sebastian bowed to Josie after Dracula left.
“Then I’ll trouble Mr. Sebastian to arrange a spaceship for me. I’m planning to take my wife and friends to explore the nearby star systems!” Josie said without hesitation.
His purpose in coming to this sector was to obtain the Power Stone.
We were supposed to set off after settling in a bit, but encountering Dracula was an unexpected surprise, which delayed us by several days. Now it's time to go.
"As you wish!" Sebastian said, and just as he had appeared, he turned into black mist and disappeared from the spot.
“Heh... Demon…” Looking at the spot where Sebastian had disappeared, Josie shook her head, then picked up the cup in front of her and drank the still-hot coffee in one gulp.
That's right, Dracula's butler is not a vampire like Dracula, but a demon from hell.
Clearly, Dracula's rise to become a renowned Blood Lord in just a few years was not simply due to the development of his bloodline.
However, as long as it doesn't endanger Josie, he can't interfere.
It must be said, Sebastian was very efficient.
In less than an hour, a luxury spaceship was ready, a high-end export product from Monarch Star, the Rolls-Royce of spaceships.
It must be said that the way the Monarchs acted, and some of their aesthetics, are considered rather bizarre by many civilizations.
However, it must be said that the various luxury goods they produce are indeed of very high quality, attracting all kinds of super-rich people.
"Sir, are you sure you don't need a pilot?" Sebastian couldn't help but ask Josie as he stood in front of the spaceship.
After all, Dracula had instructed him to take good care of Josie.
But now Josie wants to pilot the spaceship himself for a trip, which is beyond his expectations. These three people, who are from Earth like Dracula, can they really pilot a spaceship?
"Don't worry, Sebastian, it's nothing!" Josie smiled slightly, said nothing more, and then led Margot and Carter onto the spaceship.
Seeing the spaceship door close, Sebastian felt somewhat helpless and could only report the situation to Dracula.
At this moment, Dracula was on his spaceship returning to his territory, having not been away from Contrasia for very long.
After listening to Sebastian's report, he couldn't help but seem thoughtful.
I had just left when Josie was about to leave as well.
This kid does have a secret, should I go check it out?
After hesitating for a few minutes, Dracula finally ordered the spaceship to return to base, intending to see what Josie was up to.
Since the spaceship was prepared by Sebastian, locating Josie's whereabouts would be easy.
Even though he knew that doing so might damage the relatively harmonious relationship he and Josie had always had.
But Dracula simply couldn't suppress his curiosity.
......................................................
"Where are we going?" On the spaceship, compared to Margot, who already knew Josie's purpose and was therefore calm, Peggy Carter, who had been called over at the last minute, looked completely bewildered.
“Of course, we’re going on an adventure to find treasure!” Josie didn’t give a clear answer, but rather gave an ambiguous one.
“…Okay, I feel like I’m a complete idiot! You guys decide!” Seeing that Josie didn’t say anything and Margot was also calm, Carter could only sigh and then slump into the chair on the spaceship.
Over the years, she had lost the will to investigate all of Josie's mysterious secrets.
Anyway, she'll find out when the time comes.
"Josie, what should we do with those rats?" Margot suddenly asked at that moment.
"Hehe, just let them follow!" Josie chuckled.
"What do you mean by that? Are we being followed?" Carter couldn't help but ask after overhearing their conversation. Damn it, why didn't she notice? And looking at the spaceship's detectors, there were no alerts.
“We were already being watched when we were at Starport. They followed us after we left, but they were very careful and stayed out of the ship’s detection range,” Josie said.
"No, how could they determine the detection range of our spaceship? And how could they keep following us so steadily?" Carter was puzzled when he heard Josie's words: "Wait, could it be that Sebastian?"
“It’s not him. Besides his own spaceship, Dracula didn’t have any other spaceships in Contrasia before. This spaceship was bought by Sebastian from the Contrasia spaceship company less than an hour ago. Moreover, this spaceship has a positioning system. Sebastian can just locate the spaceship to do whatever he wants. There’s no need to send someone to track it!” Josie shook her head and denied Carter’s guess. “So it can only be said that the person who was tracking it was very familiar with the performance of this spaceship.”
"So that means there's no way to identify the stalker?" Carter scratched his head.
"Does it matter? They'll all come out sooner or later!" Josie said nonchalantly.
"But is it really okay? If I'm not mistaken, this spaceship, although luxurious, is just a passenger ship!" Carter was still somewhat worried.
After all, this was her first time fighting in space.
"Don't worry, although it's a passenger ship, the safety level is very high, and..." Josie smiled mysteriously.
No matter how Carter asked, Josie didn't answer.
Even Margot remained silent.
While this spaceship's speed couldn't compare to those in the Star Wars universe, it was still among the fastest in the Marvel Universe. After just three days and four jump points, it quickly arrived at Morag's star system.
"Is this our destination? It looks rather gloomy!" Carter couldn't help but exclaim, looking down at the gray and gloomy planet Morag.
“Yes, but don’t let its unassuming appearance fool you. A truly brilliant civilization once flourished here,” Josie replied while operating the spaceship’s control panel.
Although it is a spaceship from Monarch, as an export product, the spaceship is operated in a multilingual manner, including the Kree language.
So after Josie boarded the ship, she had already allowed Confusion to infiltrate the spaceship and change its operating method.
Therefore, Josie can easily control the spaceship by disorientation.
After a preliminary scan and comparison of the planet, Josie quickly located her target and landed her spaceship on the ground.
"...No, you're not even wearing protective suits?" After the spaceship landed, Carter was once again dumbfounded as he watched Josie and Margot simply open the hatch and walk out.
Good grief, so you guys not only learned magic and became extraordinary, but now you've stopped being human?
"Don't worry... Apart from the somewhat polluted air, the atmosphere of this planet is perfectly suitable for terrestrial life to survive," Josie said, waving her hand.
Although Morag was abandoned because its civilization was destroyed, the entire star system and the planet's atmospheric circulation system are still well preserved.
The fact that Star-Lord and James Rhodes, who later joined the Avengers to retrieve the Orb, both opened their masks here in the movie also proves this point.
Therefore, with significant effort invested in restoration and transformation, Morag could still become a habitable planet for humans.
However, the planet's resources have been largely exhausted by that destroyed civilization, making the effort to go through with it simply not worthwhile.
This is why Morag has been abandoned for so long; if it had any value left, it would have been occupied by an alien civilization.
Hearing what Josie said, Carter followed her out of the cabin.
Ah, that's true. Apart from the air being a bit polluted, it doesn't really affect breathing.
"This place is truly magnificent!" As Josie took the lead and headed towards the ruins, Margot couldn't help but exclaim as she looked at the ruins that appeared before them.
Although it is very dilapidated, it is still possible to tell that this place must have once been a very prosperous city.
“Speaking of which, how was this civilization destroyed? Was it an invasion by foreign enemies? It doesn’t seem like it!” Carter said, observing the surrounding scenery.
Although the city was dilapidated, as a soldier, she could easily tell that it didn't look like it had been through a war.
“Although there is no clear evidence, it is likely related to the power they possess that does not belong to them!” Josie, who was walking at the front, replied.
Although the movie doesn't mention the reason for Morag's destruction, and the Orb was well protected by Morag's storage device before Star-Lord arrived, Josie still believes that Morag's destruction is inextricably linked to the Power Stone.
"What power?" Carter asked curiously.
“…Do you still remember the Tesseract?” Josie stopped and asked Carter.
"...You mean, the destruction of this civilization was because of the Cosmic Cube?" Carter's expression turned serious upon hearing Josie's words.
You know, the Tesseract is actually on Earth.
“No, it’s not the Tesseract, but something similar to it… Now that things have come to this, I won’t hide it from you anymore. In fact, the Tesseract is just a facade. Its true core is actually a gem, the Space Stone!” Josie shook her head and then explained the existence of the Infinity Stones to Carter.
Margot, who was standing nearby, had already heard Josie tell the story of the Infinity Stones before, but hearing Josie's narration again still made her sigh deeply.
The universe holds so many mysteries.
Carter was completely stunned.
All she knew was that the Cosmic Cube possessed immense power and its origins were extremely mysterious.
But I never imagined that its origins would be so terrifying.
What's even more terrifying is that there are actually six of them.
"...So, you're here to find the other one of the six Infinity Stones?" Carter asked.
“That’s right, and it’s the Power Stone, the most destructive of all the Infinity Stones… It can easily destroy an entire planet!” Josie nodded.
