Reid couldn't help rubbing his hands together, his face full of anticipation.
"We'll talk about it next time. Where's the energy you separated? Leave it to me now."
Yesterday, Peter received news that Reed had successfully separated the Phoenix Force.
That’s why I plan to set off today to travel into the universe.
"It has been prepared for a long time."
Reed opened a storage warehouse that had been secured by dozens of security barriers without hesitation and took out one of the huge containers that was about fifty centimeters in size.
Through the transparent special shell of the container, one can see a special energy emitting golden light, which is slowly twisting.
"Well done."
After taking over the Phoenix Force, Peter praised it.
"By the way, I will be away from Earth for some time. If there is any emergency, please notify me through the spacecraft's communication system."
"I can use the portal to get back as soon as possible."
"But try not to disturb me unless it's something important."
After Peter finished speaking, he disappeared into the space station.
The next moment, the spacecraft docked outside the space station slowly started up.
Then he jumped through time and space in an area near the space station and disappeared.
"When will I have the chance to travel to the vast universe like Mr. Superman?"
Including Reed, countless people in the space station looked at the spacecraft heading into the universe, their hearts full of yearning for the starry sky.

(End of this chapter)
Chapter 107 Being robbed? No, I was the one being robbed!
Between the vast starry sky of the universe.
A huge spaceship is sailing slowly in it.
"Captain Yondu, the mission to find the Cosmic Orb has failed. We have wasted a lot of time and resources. What should we do next?"
At this moment, there are more than a dozen alien creatures with strange faces and colorful skin in the spaceship.
They were surrounding a dark blue-skinned guy, complaining about the failure of the mission.
"Yes, after receiving the mission, we spent so much money to buy maps and information, but we didn't expect that someone else would get there first..."
At this moment, only the blue-skinned alien sitting in the center can remain calm.
The other aliens couldn't help but get angry.
As space predators, they make a living by plundering and being hired.
But now, not only has he failed to successfully complete his employer's task, he is also required to pay a large sum of compensation.
They even spent almost all their savings on this mission.
If there is no income for some time to come, they might not even have the money to maintain the spacecraft.
"Captain, I think it must be that after Star-Lord escaped, he leaked our mission information, which allowed others to get there first, causing our mission to fail."
Looking at the calm Captain Yondu, a burly crew member next to him spoke with an indignant look on his face.
"Yes, it must be that bastard Star-Lord!"
"It must be him. He took advantage of the captain's care to steal the mission information and run away. We can't let this go this time!"
"Yes, capture him and exile him to space to let him know the consequences of betraying our predators."
This crew member's words instantly attracted the agreement of other crew members, and finally caused a slight fluctuation on Yongdu's calm face.
"Alright, let's go catch that bastard right now. This time, I will personally exile him to space!"
Yongdu stood up suddenly and made a promise to all the crew members with great anger in his words.
Then he slowly walked out of the crowd, looked up at the starry sky, leaving only his back to the other crew members.
"Do you think the Captain is serious this time?"
"It's hard to say. The captain always said the same thing when that brat caused trouble before, but he is still alive and well, and he has caused even greater troubles in the future."
Looking at the suddenly angry Yondu's back, the crew members communicated in low voices.
"You think that Star-Lord is the captain's illegitimate child on some planet?"
"Well, it's very likely. Otherwise, why would you take such good care of him?"
"That's right. The troubles that kid has caused before are enough to exile us to space."
"..."
Yongdu couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed as he listened to the "whispering" discussions of the crew members behind him.
He certainly realized that he had a special preference for Star-Lord.
To the extent that, every time the brat did something wrong and was caught, he would just give him a slight punishment as a pretense.
Until now, all the crew members could see his preference for Star-Lord.
Even speculate about the relationship between them.
"No, we can't go on like this, otherwise my dignity as the captain will be completely lost."
As a shrewd captain, Yondu certainly knows the consequences of losing his dignity and respect in the hearts of his crew.
That means having power seized and being pulled down from the position of captain.
"So, I must find an opportunity to re-establish my authority as the captain!"
Just as Yongdu was thinking about how to re-establish his authority as captain.
A streak of light like a meteor quickly streaked across the starry sky in front of them. When the light illuminated their spaceship, the thing had already disappeared, almost in a flash.
"What it is?"
……
"Captain, we've made a fortune!"
In the cab, after investigation, they were shocked to find that the rapidly passing streak of light was not a cosmic comet.
"That's not a comet, it's a spaceship, a spaceship traveling at superluminal speed!"
All the crew members who knew the result couldn't help but show excitement on their faces.
An ordinary small spaceship may not be a big deal. As long as you have money, you can buy it at will in the universe.
However, a spacecraft capable of traveling at superluminal speed is rare in the universe.
After all, even their spaceships have to rely on space nodes to make time and space jumps in order to cross galaxies when traveling in the universe.
And what does this mean?
"The value of the hyperdrive is not low. Whether it is sold to the Kree Empire, the Skrull Empire, Xandar or the Ork Group, it can be exchanged for a considerable reward."
This small spaceship itself does not have much value, but the superluminal engine technology it contains is very valuable.
"Captain, what do you think? Should we do this?"
"That's right, Captain. With this job, we can make up for this loss and even have some left to share with our brothers. Let's go and have some fun..."
Some crew members seemed to be unable to bear it any longer and encouraged Yongdu to do this.
"That's right, Captain. If we can accomplish this and make up for the losses of this mission, even if we catch that bastard back, we don't need to exile him. We can just teach him a lesson."
Seeing that Yongdu was still hesitating, a smart crew member finally spoke up.
"Okay, since everyone is so united, let's do this."
Finally, Yongdu put aside the worry in his heart and prepared to do something to make up for the loss.
More importantly, it can also be used as an opportunity to establish authority among other crew members.
At the same time, let these crew members show mercy when they catch that bastard Star-Lord.
"However, don't even mention sparing that bastard Star-Lord. If I catch him later, I will definitely exile him to space myself and let him experience the feeling of his body exploding after being frozen."
"Don't try to persuade me then!"
Yongdu said with a "determined" look on his face.
"Okay, now, I order all crew members to prepare to set off and plunder that spaceship!"
In an instant, amid the cheers of all the crew members, Yondu's spaceship entered the nearby space node, made a space jump, and rushed to the area ahead of the predicted flight direction of the spaceship.
……
Only one space jump was performed.
Yondu's spaceship appeared in the vast universe.
"How is it? Did you detect the spaceship?"
Yondu asked nervously.
Although they knew the direction the spacecraft was heading and had made detailed predictions, whether they could find the spacecraft was still full of unknowns.
After all, no one knows whether the spacecraft will change direction midway.
In the vast universe, a slight difference in direction will produce a huge difference when expanded to the scale of the universe.
"We have successfully detected that spaceship, and it is approaching us. Although its route is slightly off, we have enough time to get in front of it and stop it!"
The tense atmosphere suddenly became cheerful at this moment.
"Great! We're going to be rich!"
With the cheers of countless crew members, Yongdu's blue face smiled like a chrysanthemum, revealing a mouthful of rotten teeth.
"Go, get to the expected area as quickly as possible and set up the trap."
"This time, we're going to make it completely fall into our pocket!"
