"What's up with him"

"I don't know, it's like this after I came back..."

Ling Tian glanced at Ling Tian who was resting with his eyes closed in the chair, then turned around and continued cutting vegetables.

He was in no mood to care about Lingtian now. He had that dream more and more frequently recently, and every time he woke up he would feel extremely tired, causing him to not rest well and doze off frequently.

Seeing that she couldn't get an answer, Man Youyou could only shut up and think about her own things.

Since the last time Faust's power returned to her body, she no longer felt sleepy for no reason as often as before. In addition, she could feel that Faust had been dormant in her body, and she could still sense what was happening around her.

Lingtian also turned a blind eye to this. He did not believe in Faust, but according to his research and analysis, Faust had completely merged with her soul. Forcibly destroying him would only kill Man Youyou as well. The seal would cause Man Youyou to be often sleepy. Faust's condition was now stable, so he could only maintain the status quo.

"time to eat!"

"..."

Lingtian looked up at the two of them and coughed lightly.

"What's wrong? Why are you all so silent?"

The two of them responded and then lowered their heads to eat.

Lingtian was a little surprised. He was just a little sleepy and took a short nap. Why did these two people become listless?

……

"So Kadle is very concerned about your affairs?"

Wu Ying took a sip of milk and looked up at Ling Tian.

"Well, it would be normal if there were data on my movements and combat data, after all, I have been chasing them all the time. However, there are very few of these. Instead, there are very detailed descriptions of my movements, as if they are more interested in my existence itself than my strength."

"I destroyed some of their bases and captured some of their men, but I didn't find much. Those three guys had a single line of communication with them and would not reveal their whereabouts at all."

Wu Ying said with some regret that if he didn't catch Fu Wu and Reloyka, everything he did would be in vain.

"It's not easy for you either..."

"Well! See? This amount of money is more than you can ever earn in your lifetime."

Lingtian helplessly glanced at Yilan who was sitting at the counter showing off to the store manager. This person had been chattering on and on from the beginning, completely disregarding the feelings of other customers.

Occasionally, some guests expressed dissatisfaction, but after seeing the cold flash of guns on her body, they had to keep quiet.

However, the store manager opposite her did not react at all. He just wiped the cups by himself and ignored what Yi Lan did.

"……boring"

Yi Lan jumped down from the counter and turned away.

"Have they always been like this?"

"Yes, this is their unique way of doing things. The relationship between them is quite complicated..."

“It’s not that complicated.”

The store manager suddenly interrupted Wu Ying. He didn't look up, but just kept talking to himself.

"I was once her wanted target. If we use Earth time to measure it, she hunted me for nearly a month..."

"I've never heard you say this before."

"I used to be a pirate. To be more precise, I was the captain of the Fifth Fleet of the Pirates of Fire."

"what!"

Lingtian was shocked. He didn't expect that this store manager actually had such a story.

"We, the Pirates of Fire, have always been robbing the rich to help the poor. We have been plundering some arrogant nobles and self-righteous gentlemen to compete for minerals and other resources. We love freedom and hate being bound. We live on the edge of a knife and lick blood all day long. Of course, for people like us, this is just commonplace, haha!"

"If that kind of life is so good, why do you want to leave?"

"I originally thought I could live the rest of my life like that. As for death, that kind of thing doesn't scare me. Pirates are half dead anyway. But during an exploration mission, I met the little girl Yilan. It was at that moment that my life was changed."

"I have killed many people, intentionally or unintentionally, directly or indirectly, so I have many enemies. I don't know which rich person is willing to spend a lot of money to buy my life, but a certain little cat has started to hunt me down like a dog just for that little bit of money."

"I was indeed a little careless that time. My team was wiped out by the kittens, and I was forced into a corner. I hid in a small cave. I had no food, no resources, and I had to stay alone. I am not afraid of death, but looking back, it seems that I paid too much for the so-called freedom. I have been wandering all my life, like an isolated island. I thought I was free, but in fact I was just wandering aimlessly on that isolated island called freedom."

When the store manager said this, he stopped what he was doing. I don’t know if it was an illusion, but at that moment Lingtian seemed to see a faint smile on his face.

"People can't always be free just for the sake of freedom. In addition to freedom, people need something else. I figured this out, so I walked out and waited for her to kill me."

"But she let me go. What should I say? [My target is Lei Lanyi, the chief captain of the Fifth Fleet of the Flame Pirates, not a caveman.] Do you think she is just fooling around? She's throwing away the meat that's already in her mouth?"

“This… is indeed hard to understand.”

"After that, I escaped from the fleet and opened a shop here. Fortunately, my former subordinates still remembered our friendship and occasionally came to patronize my business. They all told the outside world that I was killed."

Lingtian nodded, and suddenly he thought of something and asked

"As far as I know, there are no so-called Fire Pirates in this universe. Are you from another universe?"

"Not surprising, my ship is equipped with a space-time jump device, which can directly open the space-time rift to travel between universes."

"Well... Well, I have something to ask of you."
