Chapter 181 Arrival at the Land of Nothingness

Looking at this huge city, Gamora introduced: "Hundreds of years ago, the Typhon Group sent laborers in to mine the organic matter in this skull."

"Bones, brain tissue, cerebrospinal fluid, these are all rare products. The high-priced items on the black market in the entire galaxy all come from here."

After hearing what Gamora said, Star-Lord and the others looked carefully at some of the factories where they were working, and saw employees who had been working for many years without stopping.

"The work here is dangerous and illegal. Only criminals would do it."

Then he got off the spaceship and walked among the bustling crowd.

When Star-Lord heard Gamora mention the criminals, he became more concerned.

"There are many outlaws on my planet!"

After thinking about the environment he lived in, Star-Lord thought that Gamora was just trying to scare him, so he retorted and didn't take it seriously.

Then Gamora took them to a bar called "Jermaiah's Boots Bar".

Looking at the bar, there is a cyberpunk feeling.

“Is your buyer there?”

Star-Lord asked Gamora, wanting to know some information.

Finally, Gamora said, "We'll wait for his agent here."

It turns out that they are waiting for the agent, rather than the buyer coming in person.

However, before reaching the door of the bar, he saw someone being thrown out of the bar.

Seeing this, Drax sighed: "This is a filthy place where people live a life of drunkenness and debauchery."

Following closely behind was his doubt: "What serious business can we do in there?"

Gamora ignored his questions and took the lead into the bar.

As soon as I entered the door, a huge noise filled the entire bar. A lot of people gathered around a large gambling table in the middle, shouting wildly.

And Drax, who was questioning just now, has also joined in and become part of the shouting.

Not only Drax, but also Rocket and Groot were immersed in it and couldn't extricate themselves.

Only Gamora and Star-Lord were not attracted by the gambling table.

Star-Lord walked to the railing outside and looked at Gamora who was alone, staring into space in deep thought. Star-Lord didn't know how to start a conversation.

So he made up an excuse: "Refueling their spacecraft is so expensive here! I've already lost a lot of money before I even make any money in business."

Then he walked to Gamora's side and looked at the starry sky side by side with her.

Gamora, however, did not doubt him and replied, "My contact asked us to wait here."

Star-Lord saw that there was something to talk about, so he quickly said: "This is the bargaining strategy. Believe me, I am the best at it."

Then Star-Lord leaned on the railing and looked at Gamora: "And what you are good at is: 'Raid! Raid!'"

What Star-Lord said was that Gamora is not very good at communicating with others.

Sure enough, Gamora laughed when she heard this, and then explained: "My father didn't teach me how to deal with others."

After hearing Gamora mention her father, Star-Lord asked, "Thanos?"

The originally relaxed and happy atmosphere was broken by Star-Lord's question.

After hearing Star-Lord say Thanos' name, his expression immediately became serious, and the queen looked at Star-Lord with an unhappy face: "He is not my father!"

From the change in Gamora's expression, Star-Lord also realized that Gamora disliked Thanos, so he didn't continue speaking.

Then Gamora recounted her experience:

"Thanos occupied my home and killed my parents in front of me. He tortured me constantly and trained me to be a killing machine."

"When I heard him say he would destroy a planet for Ronan, I just couldn't stand it."

As she spoke, Gamora shook her head slightly, revealing an indescribable expression.

Gamora didn't continue speaking, but Star-Lord already knew her choice.

Then, Gamora saw the player that Star-Lord had on his waist.

"Why would you fight for this player?"

As he spoke, he took the player from Star-Lord's waist.

Star-Lord said, "My mother gave this to me."

"My mom shared with me all the pop songs she loved growing up, and I happened to have it with me at the time, right there..."

Star-Lord began to choke up as he spoke: "That day she..."

Looking at Gamora, Star-Lord didn't want to talk about the thing that made him most sad, so he changed the subject: "That day, I left the earth."

Then he took it from Gamora and put it back on his waist.

"What do you usually use it for?" Gamora asked curiously.

"What is it used for? Nothing else, just listening to music and dancing."

Star-Lord explained, and then stood closer and closer to Camus, as if after talking to each other, the two of them were getting closer and closer in spirit.

After hearing Star-Lord's answer, Gamora said: "I am a warrior and a killer. I don't need to dance."

This is Gamora testing Star-Lord.

"Really? On my planet, there is a legend about people like you."

Star-Lord did not answer directly, but talked about other things.

"The legend is called 'Full of Strength'."

"In the story, there is a great hero named Kevin Bacon. Everyone in his city is difficult to deal with, so he teaches them to dance."

“So, he’s really amazing.”

Although Star-Lord seemed very calm while telling the story, he was actually very panicked inside and made up a story.

I thought Gamora wouldn't care much, but Gamora followed his words and found a question to ask Star-Lord.

This caught him off guard, and he could only stammer out his explanation.

Then, Star-Lord took the headphones off his neck and put them on Gamora, allowing her to experience the songs he brought from Earth.

Listening to the song, Gamora's heart became more and more...

bass!

The atmosphere of the two people who were about to kiss each other was broken by the sound of a knife being unsheathed.

Looking closely, it was Gamora who drew the knife.

She put the knife on Star-Lord's neck, then said with confusion, bewilderment and anger: "No!!!"

Star-Lord was startled by her and asked quickly: "Oh! What are you doing?"

Gamora said loudly: "I know what kind of person you are, Peter Quill."

"And I'm not one of those little girls who are just beginning to fall in love and believe you, yours, yours..."

Gamora paused for a few seconds before she found the right words to describe it: "Your sweet talk!"

Star-Lord whispered, "You must have misunderstood me."

After hearing this, Gamora let go of her hand, allowing Star-Lord to stand up again, and the knife on his neck was taken away by Gamora.
