"Of course!"
Star-lord took out the Universal Orb. Broker's eyes lit up and was about to reach out to take it, but Star-lord did not pass it to him. Instead, he tossed it up and down as he spoke casually.
"But I don't plan to sell it to you. I plan to trade with the buyer directly!"
Broker's outstretched hand froze in mid-air. He could not help but stare at Star-lord angrily.
"That's against the rules!"
Star-Lord grabbed the Universe Orb in his hand, looked at Broker, and nodded.
"Indeed, but are you sure you want to get involved?"
Looking at Star-lord's half-smile, Broker could not help but feel puzzled. Then, he heard Star-lord continue.
"I forgot to tell you, I met a monster with a mechanical head on Planet Morag. He claimed to be Ronan's subordinate!"
"What?"
Broker's face immediately changed when he heard this.
As a Sandar citizen and a well-informed middleman, Broker of course knew about Ronan and knew what he wanted to do.
Ronan was a radical in the Kerry Empire. He was enraged by the peace treaty between the two countries. Unless the Sandar civilization was completely wiped out, he would not give up!
He did not want to have anything to do with Ronan!
If Ronan really had his eyes on the Universal Orb, he would definitely not give up. He would definitely follow Star-lord here. That madman who wanted to destroy Planet Sandar was capable of doing anything!
As a middleman between Star Rank mercenaries, although he did not need to personally carry out missions, it was not a safe job. The reason why he was able to live safely for Enron until now was because of his cautiousness.
Broker was not in the mood to care about Star-lord breaking the rules. He only wanted to completely cut off all ties with this matter.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Quill. Please leave immediately! I will not get involved in anything related to Ronan! "
Broker said anxiously as he walked out from behind the counter and began to chase people away.
Star-lord did not expect Broker's reaction to be so big. He was so afraid of Ronan and immediately said.
"Don't worry! We will leave, but you have to tell me who the buyer is first! "
"No, I can't reveal the client's information, and I won't participate in this matter! Please leave immediately! "
Broker didn't want to be involved in this matter anymore. He didn't want to break the rules and reveal his client's information. As he spoke, he pushed Star-lord towards the door.
When he passed by Chen Mo, Broker also stretched out his arm and pushed Chen Mo's chest, but it felt like he was pushing against a wall. Chen Mo did not move an inch, and Broker almost twisted his waist when he was not paying attention.
Chenmo glanced at Star-Lord, who was still pushing Broker, trying to persuade him, and couldn't help but shake his head secretly.
Star-lord had grown up among the aliens, so it was rare for him to be so kind and principled. However, he was sometimes overly sentimental.
He did not hesitate to pull out his gun and shoot at his enemies, but he did not want to hurt innocent people. He did not even want to use force.
However, Chen Mo did not have the time to listen to him trying to convince people with reason.
With a thought, an adamantium throwing knife appeared out of thin air. Then, driven by telekinesis, it drew a silver arc in the air and appeared in front of Broker in an instant. The sharp tip of the knife was pointed straight at Broker's forehead.
Broker wanted to push Chen Mo away but failed. He was about to turn his head when he saw a flash in front of his eyes. Then, he saw a shiny throwing knife suddenly appear in front of him, floating in the air and pointing at him.
Just as he saw the throwing knife clearly, it seemed to be driven by some kind of force and flew towards him out of thin air.
Broker looked at the Throwing Knife in front of him that was constantly approaching his eyebrows and suddenly reacted. He quickly let go of Star-Lord and stepped back again and again, but the Throwing Knife in front of him followed closely, always keeping only a few centimeters away from his forehead.
Soon, he hit the counter behind him and was forced to stop. However, the throwing knife continued to fly forward, forcing him to continue to lean back. In the end, his whole body almost fell on the counter.
Although Star-lord had been pointed at by Chen Mo's throwing knife before, the feeling of being pointed at himself and watching someone else being pointed at by a throwing knife were two completely different things.
Star-lord had completely forgotten about his embarrassment and panic at that time. He straightened his clothes that had been messed up by Broker and looked at him gloatingly.
"Can you say it now?"
At the same time, Star-lord was also reflecting in his heart. It seemed that sometimes, reasoning and talking were useless. Violence was the only way to solve a problem!
Broker stared cross-eyed at the throwing knife in front of him. He could not help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, but he still hesitated and did not speak. However, in the next moment, the throwing knife that was a few centimeters away from his forehead continued to fly forward slowly. The sharp tip of the knife gradually pierced between Broker's eyebrows!
Broker wanted to continue to step back, but he was blocked by the counter behind him. There was no way to avoid it.
Feeling the cold and stinging pain between his eyebrows, Broker finally could not hold it in anymore. He immediately begged for mercy.
"I'll talk! I'll talk! Don't go any further! "
In the end, under Chen Mo's violent threats, Broker revealed the identity and location of the buyer behind the scenes. It was the owner of the Nothingness, the Collector Difan!
"Thanks!"
After getting the information he wanted, Star-lord immediately waved the Universal Orb in his hand at Broker happily. He then turned to look at Chen Mo and gave him a thumbs up with a face full of admiration.
"Your idea is still the best!"
Star-lord had forgotten that he hated Yondu's violent threats in the past. He thought that they were barbaric and violent. But now, he had a completely different attitude towards Chen Mo's actions.
However, Star-lord did not feel that there was anything wrong with his obvious double standards.
Disregarding his prejudice against Yondu, the robber who kidnapped him from Earth, his identity and background were completely incomparable to Chen Mo's.
Yondu was an interstellar mercenary who would do anything for money. Although they did not burn, kill, rob, or commit all kinds of crimes, they obviously had nothing to do with justice.
Chen Mo, on the other hand, was the guardian of the entire Earth. He was a superhero who had saved the world several times. Even if they were doing the same thing, the meaning behind it was completely different.
Not to mention, their ultimate goal was to fight against Ronan and Thanos, save the Milky Way, and of course, save Broker himself.
Under such circumstances, using violence to get some important information out of him was reasonable and justified.
Thinking about it, Broker should be thanking them instead!
After getting the information he wanted, Chen Mo directly put away the knife and turned to walk out of the shop. Star-lord saw this and hurriedly followed behind. But before leaving, Star-lord turned his head and said to Broker, who was still in shock.
"Don't worry, we'll help you kill Ronan! Treat it as buying your information! "
