Facing the increasingly stiff smile on this girl's face, Zane began to feel a bit awkward himself.
Damn it, there's always a loophole in the best-laid plans; the money issue, which Zane had been ignoring, now stumped him.
Even if Zane wanted to exchange Earth specialties from the Ark for money, it was probably too late now.
"Sir, is there a problem?" asked the Xandarian girl calmly, showing no impatience, appearing very professional.
Seeing this calm girl, for some reason, Zane suddenly had an impulse to destroy Xandar.
Just then, an ugly-looking alien, who had just paid the docking fee, passed by Zane and his group.
Seeing Zane's somewhat embarrassed demeanor, he sneered and muttered some words Zane couldn't understand.
But any intelligent being could understand his meaning: loser!
However, Zane, being ridiculed, felt no anger at all. Instead, he felt a bit happy because his Credits had finally arrived.
The next moment, the [King's Treasury] expanded around the ugly alien.
Several spears instantly shot out, accurately piercing through his limbs, pinning him to the ground...
Ignoring the screams of the Xandarian girl and the security robots that were coming to investigate, Zane walked calmly to the ugly alien, who was wailing continuously, and looked down at him, saying calmly:
"Ugly bastard, hand over all your credits, or else!"
As an intelligent being, the ugly alien naturally understood Zane's words, so he said without hesitation:
"Go to hell, bastard!"
Zane's smile remained unchanged, but around the ugly alien, five golden ripples appeared again, and the next moment, five swords stabbed into his body once more.
"Ah!"
A scream that echoed through the entire spaceport attracted everyone's attention to Zane and his group.
The girl who collected the docking fees had been frightened by Zane's cruel behavior and was trembling in the corner.
She secretly vowed in her heart to quit her job as soon as she got off work; it was too damn dangerous.
It turned out that the most dangerous extraterrestrial visitors this girl had seen were just those cosmic raiders.
But even the raiders who wandered on the fringes of interstellar law would consider the Xandarian security forces; none would be as reckless as Zane.
As the wails of the ugly alien grew weaker, those who were initially bystanders on the landing pad slowly gathered around.
Everyone sensitively noticed that although Zane was blatantly committing crimes under the surveillance system, the security robots showed no intention of stopping him. They even prevented others from disturbing Zane, as if to protect him.
However, when they saw the Ark, which occupied two-thirds of the landing pad behind Zane and his group, they understood why Xandar treated Zane this way.
Might makes right!
Some trouble-averse people had already dispersed, but there were always some fanatics whose thought processes differed from those of normal people.
"Hey, Groot, this ship looks good; let's steal it."
"I am Groot."
"Don't worry, I Rocket, I've never been afraid of anyone!"
After Zane got what he wanted from the dying ugly alien, he settled the poor guy's miserable life with one sword.
Zane couldn't bear to use the Reaper's Scythe to sever the ugly alien's head.
Blame it on him for appearing before Zane at the wrong time and in the wrong way.
Afterwards, Zane walked towards the girl who was trembling in the corner.
Then, with the girl's terrified and incredulous eyes, Zane paid the docking fee for the Ark.
Just as Zane happily decided to go sightseeing on Xandar and wait for Star-Lord to deliver the Orb of the Universe to him, Skynet suddenly approached Zane and whispered:
"Boss, two intruders were apprehended on the Ark just now. How should we deal with them?"
"Why ask? Just destroy them; it's a good opportunity to try out those new fertilizers for the ecological garden." Zane said casually.
Skynet nodded and connected to the Ark's duplicate, ordering the magnetic energy robots to dispose of the two intruders.
Just as the two thieves were about to be turned into new fertilizer, Zane vaguely remembered that he seemed to have heard the words "Groot" in the crowd just now.
"Skynet, wait a minute, let me see the images of the two intruders." Zane said somewhat uncertainly.
"Sure, boss."
Skynet opened its palm, and the next moment, two figures, one tall and one short, were projected into the air.
It was none other than the tree-like Groot and the raccoon-like Rocket!
At this moment, they were struggling in the hands of the magnetic energy robots, but they couldn't break free from the robots' grip.
Even Groot had been dismantled almost completely by the magnetic energy robots.
And ahead of them was a flaming incinerator.
If Zane hadn't asked a question just now, these two main members of the future Guardians of the Galaxy might have become new fertilizer.
Five minutes earlier, Rocket, after eyeing Zane's Ark, brought his only friend, Groot, to the back of Zane and his group.
He tried to cut a hole in the surface of the Ark with a laser cutter to get inside the ship.
But how could the Ark, made entirely of vibranium, be cut by him?
In the end, except for a transparent hole opened on Groot's stupid head by the reflected laser, the Ark was unscathed, not even losing a speck of paint.
Even so, Rocket, determined to get the Ark, didn't give up.
Taking advantage of his small stature, Rocket climbed into a ventilation port on the surface of the Ark.
Then, from inside, he opened a small window of the Ark and brought Groot, who was outside, in.
However, just as these two idiots were preparing to take over the entire Ark by going to the cockpit, hundreds of magnetic energy robots silently surrounded them.
The result afterward was self-evident. After a bitter fight, the two were disarmed and captured.
So now, Zane saw these two interesting guys invading the Ark and smiled, saying:
"Don't kill them for now; throw them into the ecological garden."
"Oh, and throw this guy into the raccoon group. Don't forget to record a video; I'll watch it later. It'll be fun." Zane pointed at the projection of Rocket, and his smile became more and more sinister.
