Hila was having a blast on the Nurian planet, rapidly accelerating her advancement as she frantically harvested souls. The other group members didn't even bother to participate, not even Vanessa wanted the blood of those corrupted creatures.
Well, of course, the gamers were exceptions, like a bunch of excited lunatics, they charged against the tide of 'zombies' as if they were playing a space version of Resident Evil.
Plasma grenades rained down as players' pockets emptied, but their XP skyrocketed like crazy.
The players could only express their emotions as: "I'm poor, but I'm also very happy!"
The Nurians were very excited about the help from the Triple Six, the speed at which Hila harvested was extremely fast, even billions of living beings on the planet couldn't stop her from advancing, instead, it only made her stronger and stronger.
It was while she was roaming the planet in a fast-paced carnage that she received a call, it was actually Rick calling her from the ship that was still orbiting the planet Nurian.
-Hila, Godora is calling.- He said with some irritation, but since Hila was in charge, he could only transfer the call to her.
Hila frowned, she paused in mid-air as her energy returned to her with tens of thousands of souls she had harvested this time. She paused for a moment as she processed the souls within her, then spoke again. - Put them in line.
The next moment, Rick's face disappeared while Serbia's face appeared.
Serbia seemed surprised. -Where is Black Spider?- He asked, confused.
-I'm Hila, currently the commander of Triple Six. Black Spider is busy with something else. What can I do for you?- Hila went straight to the point.
Serbia frowned and spoke. - When is he coming back?
This annoyed Hila, she was the straightforward type, and the fact that Serbia specifically wanted to speak with Black Spider irritated her, since he didn't want to talk to her. Why bother talking to him?! He interrupted her harvest for this?!
-I don't know. Is there anything else? If not, I'm going to hang up.- She said bluntly. If not for the fact that Godora could be considered somewhat friendly with 'Black Spider', she would have hung up already.
Serbia felt his eyebrows twitching.
Are all of the Dragon Emperor's subordinates like this? Why does your personality seem worse than the other's?
-I have a mission here, but only Grade A mercenary groups were invited. Is Trax still there?- Serbia finally gave up trying to talk to Black Spider. He had personally called Triple Six precisely because his relationship with Black Spider was better. He wanted to hang up and let another subordinate contact them, but since he was already there, it was better to just finalize the deal.
-Oh? What mission?- Hila asked curiously.
-Shouldn't Trax listen?- Serbia still asked, a little confused. Was Hila really in the running? Although his assessment of her was good, it was clear that he didn't believe Black Spider would leave the mercenary group in her hands and not in the hands of a competent Grade A officer.
Hila just wanted to say that Trax is a muscular idiot, how can that guy manage anything?
However, she wouldn't say that, she was already getting tired of Serbia.
-No need, are you going to talk or not?- She asked, frowning.
Serbia and Hila stared at each other for a long moment. Serbia finally sighed and began to speak. -The mission itself is secret. Just know that you are not the only mercenary groups hired, the mission will involve at least one other Grade A Super. As for the exact details, I'm sorry I can't say to prevent leaks before the time.
Hila seemed thoughtful before narrowing her eyes. -When is it going to happen? Where is the mission?
-In the coming days, at this moment we only need high-level Super, that is, Grade B minimum and Grade A preferably. If you accept, you can go to Juberly Hub. The mercenaries who accept will depart directly with our Fleet.- Serbia explained calmly.
Hila was thoughtful, this type of change was clearly to avoid any kind of leak, but even so, knowing Godora, the chance of it being a mission against Dark Star was very high.
Hila wasn't stupid, she understood that, but she didn't care, with a mission of such a large scale, there would be many souls to collect, and that excited her.
-Okay, it arrived at Juberly Hub in 3 days.- Hila nodded.
Serbia was a little surprised, Hila hadn't even mentioned payment. He thought for a moment, but in the end said nothing, only nodded.
Hila turned off the communicator, staring at it thoughtfully, then transformed into a beam of light, speeding across the planet. She could no longer harvest calmly, she needed to accelerate.
Hila's energy continued to surge across the planet, harvesting souls at twice the previous speed.
After a few more hours of harvesting, Hila quickly set off with the Trihexa crew. She took the opportunity to call Ringo and tell him about the deal she made with Serbia. Ringo didn't know what to say, Ringo passed the buck to Serbia, and Serbia even involved his organization in it.
In the end, Ringo told her to just go ahead, knowing she was one step away from the breakthrough, he wasn't going to stop her. Judging by Serbia's movements, he clearly wanted to use external power to mitigate internal losses.
Money is easy to earn, but Supers are hard to train, it's clear that Serbia was an intelligent leader when you saw how he did things.
