However, the situation here was obviously different. The bones and spinal fluid of ancient gods were not just stimulants. Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to be sold at such a high price on the black market.
In the black market, the most valuable things were always related to power. Whether it was powerful weapons, advanced equipment, or various models of spaceships, the price was much more expensive than simple synthetic stimulants.
And the most expensive of them were the potions that could improve one's strength!
However, according to Camorra, Di Fan did not seem to have mastered the method of using the remains of these gods to strengthen his body. Otherwise, he would not have sold these precious materials directly.
These things must have eventually fallen into the hands of the major forces. Through experiments and research, they would find a way to use them to strengthen themselves.
Perhaps the potions used to strengthen Camorra and Rocket used these materials.
As they spoke, they had already arrived at the street. Close observation allowed them to understand the situation of the Nothingness more clearly.
As Camorra said, this was not a city or a fortress, but a colonial mine.
Most of the tall buildings they saw on the spaceship before were production facilities. They should be used to process the materials mined from the remains of the gods.
The low buildings in front of them were where the people here lived.
Many aliens of different races with temperaments very similar to the prisoners in Clint 'Prison walked past them. Most of them were wearing the same red work clothes.
"The work here is dangerous and illegal. It's only suitable for desperadoes."
Camorra ignored the scrutinizing gazes cast at them from time to time and said as she led them forward.
The situation here was not much better than Clint 'Prison. Normal people would not come here to work.
Star-Lord said indifferently when he heard this.
"I myself come from a lawless planet. Billy the Sharpshooter, Bonnie and Clyde, John Stamos!"
Drax could not help but say when he heard this.
"Sounds good. I'd like to take a look."
"You should go take a look."
Chen Mo looked at Star-lord's pretentious act and could not help but secretly laugh.
This guy was only eight years old when he was taken away from Earth by Yondu. It was not easy for him to remember the legendary thieves like Billy the Kid, Bonnie, and Clyde. However, John Stamos was an actor. He only played a similar role and was used by Star-lord to make up the number of people to fool Drax and the other aliens who knew nothing about Earth's culture.
In the end, he really fooled one of them!
Under Camorra's lead, the group walked all the way to the collector's territory. The situation they saw along the way was more like a chaotic old town or slum. In addition to dirty work clothes, the people were wearing tattered clothes. Everyone's faces were full of vigilance...
However, everyone relied on their own strength and did not mind. Moreover, when those people saw the weapons on their bodies, they did not dare to casually provoke them.
However, a few children saw that they were well-dressed and ran to them to beg. Star-Lord quickly reminded everyone to pay attention to their wallets.
However, everyone present was experienced and Star-lord's reminder was unnecessary.
As for Groot, he had nothing on him except vines. He did not need to worry about being stolen at all.
However, a little girl ran in front of Groot and looked at him curiously.
The Nothingness was a large mine. Except for various buildings, it was barren. There were no plants at all. All the oxygen was produced by the oxygen generator. Groot, a Treant with green moss, was very conspicuous here.
When Groot saw the little girl, he could not help but show a silly smile. He bent down and extended his hand to her.
A slender branch grew out of his palm, and a bud quickly grew on top of it. It then bloomed and turned into a small white flower.
Groot plucked the flower with his other hand and handed it to the little girl with a smile.
Chen Mo looked at this scene and thought that Groot was quite suitable to be a kindergarten teacher.
He was caring and knew how to coax children. He could stand there and turn it into a swing or a tree house. He could even protect them if they were in danger.
Where else could you find such an omnipotent kindergarten teacher?
Soon, they came to a bar with a gorgeous electronic light box and holographic projection billboards that were rarely seen here.
There were several sexy alien beauties standing on both sides of the bar door. They were constantly flirting with each other. Obviously, they were prostitutes trying to attract customers. The men passing by constantly glanced at them with burning eyes, but in the end, they left reluctantly.
The prostitutes here were of the highest quality in the Nothingness, but they were also the most expensive. With their salary, they could not patronize them often.
Star-lord looked at the situation here and could not help but ask Camorra.
"Your buyer is here?"
Camorra said as she walked forward.
"We'll wait for his representative here."
Just when Star-lord and the others walked to the door of the bar, a tall and brawny man dragged out an obviously drunk man and pushed him out of the door.
"Get out!"
Star-lord looked at the drunk man who was still dancing and talking nonsense at his feet. He turned his head and said to Camorra.
"This is not a decent place."
A 4 billion deal, shouldn't it be discussed in a more luxurious place?
Although he often patronized bars like this, he preferred a more luxurious place.
And he didn't want Camorra to know that he was a regular in this kind of place.
Camorra ignored him and continued to walk forward. She took the lead and walked into the bar. Star-lord shrugged and followed her inside.
Drax looked up at the bar sign above the door and said.
"What else can we do while we wait?"
Soon, he had an answer to his question.
A bar in this chaotic place with no rules was not just a place to drink. Prostitutes and gambling were indispensable, and the gambling here was much more violent than ordinary casinos.
In the middle of the bar, many people were shouting around a steel platform more than four meters long. Drax and the others couldn't help but squeeze through the crowd and went up. They then found that it was a colosseum.
Several monsters that looked like lizards and had sharp teeth were running and fighting on the stage. From time to time, a smaller monster would be eaten by the largest one. Every time it happened, it would bring about intense cheers from the crowd. There were also people who pounded the table in annoyance.
This kind of colosseum was somewhat similar to horse racing. People could bet on the monster they liked.
