After an unknown period had passed, the starry expanse returned to its solitude and stillness, everything returning to silence.
If not for the fact that this void had beco a wasteland, if not for the terrifying dinsional rifts that had yet to disappear.
It was as if nothing had ever happened.
The three individuals who had once existed here had vanished without a trace, unseen by anyone.
Various celestial bodies shattered into teorites. Remnants of exploded cosmic battleships floated aimlessly in the void, drifting without any discernible pattern.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye. A spacecraft passed through this area, a rcenary group on a mission, the strongest of whom were rely cosmos-stage martial warriors.
They beheld the ruins and the still-unhealed dinsional rifts, filled with unspeakable horror.
"Let's get out of here! Sothing terrible must have happened here," Soone said anxiously, swallowing hard.
"It seems to be over already, otherwise it wouldn't be so calm," Another observed hesitantly.
"Yeah, maybe…"
"Let's go down and take a look. There might be so treasures!"
"With such a terrifying scene, the fighters involved must have been universe-stage martial warriors. There must be treasures!"
"Leader, what do you think?"
"We seek fortune amidst danger. Since we've stumbled upon it, let's go down and take a look." The leader of the rcenary group spoke solemnly.
As space rcenaries, these warriors were cautious of death yet daring in the face of danger. Ultimately, they decided to explore the area.
Before long, they stumbled upon wreckage from spacecraft and battleships. Even though much had been destroyed or lost in the dinsional rifts, among these remnants, there might still be precious tals worth a substantial sum of universe coins.
For this rcenary group, whose strongest mbers were only cosmos-stage martial warriors, it was already a huge gain.
Moreover, it was a completely unexpected windfall, unlike the risks involved in rcenary missions. Naturally, they were extrely excited and happy.
"Do you guys see the black skull mark on this?" A rcenary found a relatively large piece of spacecraft wreckage, expressing doubt.
"Let take a look." In no ti, many people gathered around.
Wreckage with identifiable marks was a valuable find as it could potentially provide clues about the identity of the unfortunate fleet.
"A black skull mark!" The leader of the rcenary group flashed over to the rcenary holding the debris, his gaze suddenly narrowing. "The Black Skull Universe Pirates!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of everyone present changed.
"Le-leader, are you saying it's the Black Skull Universe Pirates, one of the three major pirate groups?" The rcenary who found the wreckage stuttered, feeling as if the debris in his hand had turned into a hot potato that he wanted to throw away imdiately.
"Yes, there's no doubt about it. Besides the Black Skull Universe Pirates, no one else would dare to use this emblem," the leader said in a solemn tone.
"But how could this be the Black Skull Universe Pirates!" The disbelief among the group was palpable.
The fact that a fleet from the Black Skull Universe Pirates had t its end here was simply unthinkable!
What happened?
"I rember just a few days ago, a fleet from the Black Skull Universe Pirates besieged the Five Burial Stars, and later, no one knew where they went," a rcenary said suddenly.
The others imdiately caught on. Soone opened the star map, confirming the distance between the Five Burial Stars and this location, and the timing matched perfectly.
"That fleet from the Black Skull Universe Pirates seems to be the one!!" For a mont, everyone exchanged glances.
"Quick, get into the ships. We must leave here imdiately," the leader of the rcenary group said, his face pale with horror.
"Leader, what about these wreckage pieces? They're worth a fortune!" Soone protested unwillingly.
"Money, money, money, even at a ti like this, all you care about is money. Hurry up, if the Black Skull Universe Pirates find out we've co here, they won't spare us," the leader said angrily.
The expressions of the group changed completely as if they had just realized sothing terrifying. Without hesitation, they all entered their ships and left the area.
In the following days, others ca to this part of the stars. Naturally, like the rcenary group, they scavenged around, found so valuable items, and then also discovered the emblem of the Black Skull Universe Pirates, scaring them into leaving imdiately.
With more people discovering it, not everyone was wise about spreading the news of the Black Skull Universe Piratess' fleet destruction.
A huge commotion was caused.
…
Another day passed, and an elderly man arrived at the scene. Erging from the void, he seed to blend with the surrounding emptiness. His gaze swept over, his profound eyes containing a sense of tilessness and insight that seed to penetrate everything.
"A god stage!"
"No, just a projection."
An old voice that sounded like he was mumbling to himself ca from his mouth.
The next mont, he waved his hand, and the entire starry sky began to ripple as if affected by waves spreading in all directions.
Before long, a mass of flesh materialized from the void, floating before the old man.
The flesh squird, revealing half a body. It was Heishan Gan. His lower half was gone, leaving only his upper body, including his heart, suspended in the air before the elderly man.
