Yondu, Star-Lord, Guardian of the Gaxy...

  As these strings of messages fshed through Kyle's mind, he didn't dwell on them too much. After all, his goal was only to find Howard and others who had shown traces in the Milky Way Alliance. There was no need for him to meddle in the affairs of the Guardians of the Gaxy.

  But then again, during the Earth's World War II era and the time leading up to the 21st century, quite a few aliens had visited Earth. Fortunately, they didn't harbor any hostility; otherwise, Earth might not have survived.

  Kyle didn't dwell on it further. His gaze fell back to the trembling Green, still kneeling beside Reno's corpse.

  At this moment, Green was on the brink of mental colpse. To him, the three indigenous humans before him were undoubtedly Interstelr demons who devoured people without leaving a trace!

  "The intelligence has been obtained, Boss. This guy doesn't need to be kept alive, right?" Lorna crossed her arms, revealing a dazzling smile.

  "Hmm." Kyle nodded calmly, extending his right hand forward as if holding a gun, with his index finger resembling the barrel, conjuring a brilliant spark of fusion energy at the fingertip.

  Fusion energy, with its capacity to charge with light waves and burn at high temperatures, possessed a penetrating and destructive power beyond ordinary sers.

  If struck by this fusion energy, one's entire body would likely evaporate on the spot!

  As the brilliance at Kyle's fingertip intensified, just before its release, Green could bear the fear of death no longer and smmed his forehead hard against the smooth floor.

  "Bang!"

  Green colpsed on the ground, wailing, "Please don't kill me! I beg you, don't kill me! I still have some value for you. Please believe me!"

  "Oh?" Kyle lowered his eyes, waving his right hand slightly, and the energy condensed at his fingertip dissipated. He looked down indifferently at Green. "I'll give you one chance. Tell me, what other value do you have?"

  After hesitating for a moment, Green said, "I... I'm very familiar with the Milky Way Alliance. I can be a guide for you. From now on, I'll be your sve. Just don't kill me, and you can use me as you wish!"

  "Do you think we're fools?" Kyle snorted. "I've already obtained enough intelligence from Reno. I don't need to keep a sve like you who could betray us at any moment."

  Standing beside him, Lorna pyed with her curls and suggested, "Boss, why not let Venom absorb his memories as well? This way, we can have a more comprehensive understanding of the Milky Way Alliance's intelligence."

  This demoness!

  Seeing Kyle actually considering it, Green couldn't help but urgently say, "Actually, I'm not just a confidant of Reno's. I also have a second hidden identity!"

  "What identity?" Kyle asked.

  Green gritted his teeth and sighed, "Ronan. I'm working for Ronan!"

  Ronan?

  Kyle had heard of this name before, mentioned by Reno earlier. Ronan was the leader of the Kree, who had recently been targeting the Nova Empire, seemingly intending to stir up a war within the Milky Way Alliance.

  "Ronan will definitely kill me."

  Green sighed deeply and continued, "Ten years ago, as one of Ronan's subordinates, I accepted a mission from him and infiltrated Reno's group."

  Tony asked in surprise, "Does Reno have any important status that requires someone like Ronan to keep an eye on him?"

  Shaking his head, Green said, "No. Reno doesn't have any special status. Ronan deliberately trained a group of elite scouts, each pced in some well-known Interstelr hunter groups, making the Interstelr hunters who didn't belong to any civilization his pawns and sources of information."

  "Isn't Ronan pnning to start a war?" Kyle hit the nail on the head.

  "To be honest. In fact, decades ago, the Xandarians and the Kree were hostile forces until they ter signed a peace agreement." Green spoke slowly. "When Ronan was young, his parents were killed by the Xandarians, so now as the leader of the Kree, he wants to start a war to completely destroy the Nova Empire."

  He paused, took a deep breath, and said, "And, I also know a major secret about Ronan!"

  "What secret?" Lorna blinked.

  Green spoke in a low voice, "Ronan has a covert colboration with a leader from Pnet Titan. As long as Ronan hands over the Power Stone, the leader of Titan will help Ronan destroy the Nova Empire."

  "Pnet Titan... leader?" Both Lorna and Tony were momentarily stunned. The Milky Way Alliance seemed to have quite a lot of trouble. They hadn't expected another civilization's leader to be involved.

  Only Kyle trembled slightly all over, and a glint of shattered gold fshed in his eyes.

  Green nodded, confirming, "I've only heard about it. That leader of Titan seems to be called Thanos..."

  "That's enough!" Kyle interrupted Green's words. His expression became exceptionally grave, and he clenched his fists tightly, the unstable fusion energy overflowing as if he had realized something very unpleasant.

  "Boss?" Lorna and Tony grew nervous. It was the first time they had seen Kyle wear such a serious and unpredictable expression.

  Kyle nodded at them, his expression slightly eased, and he said in a deep voice, "Alright. The grudges between the Nova Empire and the Kree have nothing to do with us. Our top priority is to find Howard and the others as soon as possible and safely return to Earth."

  Once that man was involved, things would escate.

  Kyle was confident in his current strength, even if he couldn't beat Thanos, he was confident in his ability to save himself. But that didn't mean he wasn't afraid of Thanos' threat to Earth.

  A snap of fingers could end half of life. This was no joke!

  Kyle looked at Green and said coldly, "Since you've revealed Ronan's secret, you must know that there's no turning back for you."

  Green nodded vigorously, already giving his pledge.

  Kyle waved his left hand, and an Item Card was drawn out, materializing into a metal electronic colr on the ground. "This is a self-destruct colr. The remote control is in my hand. Pressing the button on the remote control or forcibly removing the colr will detonate the bomb, blowing up the person wearing it into a headless corpse. Put it on."

  Green hesitated, but under the threatening gaze of Lorna and Tony, he could only reluctantly put on the colr himself.

  "If, in the end, we achieve our goal, I will grant you your freedom before returning to Earth," Kyle said, squinting his eyes. When dealing with subordinates or sves, it was best to give them a taste of both the stick and the carrot.

  "Yes, Master!" Green was overjoyed and quickly changed his tune with wit.

  Kyle didn't mince words, asking, "Which pnet, possessing intermediaries and suitable for our journey, is it?"

  "The Nova Empire," Green blurted out. "Nova is a prosperous pnet in the Milky Way Alliance, with advanced technology and civilization, serving as the economic hub of the Alliance. Even outsiders without status can come and go freely."

  "Very well." Kyle snapped his fingers lightly, giving the order, "Set course for the Nova Empire immediately!"
