In a small dark room, Hela and two men were confined.
One of them was the paramour mentioned by Shan Hai.
The other was the possessor of the last fragment of the Heart of the Universe.
This small dark room was not a small dark room in the ordinary sense.
It was able to block Lin Feng's search because of it.
The space inside was as dark as the universe, yet boundless.
The three had been in the room for quite some time, plotting against Lin Feng.
On the table in front of them lay two glowing, irregularly shaped objects, which were indeed fragments of the Heart of the Universe.
"Can it succeed..." The speaker was the possessor of the last fragment of the Heart of the Universe.
His name was Mark, one of the many lone wolves wandering the universe.
These lone wolves relied on their own abilities to complete extremely special missions to earn money.
Professionally, they were similar to bounty hunters, but bounty hunters were usually inseparable from fighting, while they were a group skilled in technology.
Hela adjusted the pointed horn ornament on her head.
"He's been getting stronger, and we don't have much time left."
"I want to remind you again, Lin Feng will definitely get all the fragments of the Heart of the Universe. If you don't get rid of him in advance, you'll be the one to die, Mark!"
A hint of fear flashed in Mark's eyes.
About half a month ago, these two found him and immediately said they wanted to save him.
Originally, Mark thought he had run into two lunatics again.
But when Lin Feng's information and a fragment of the Heart of the Universe were placed before him, Mark believed them.
"Alright, I still have a question."
"According to the information you've provided, even with the enhancement of two fragments of the Heart of the Universe, I can't guarantee how long I can control him..."
"I mean, if I can't control him, won't we be walking into our own deaths?"
Hearing this, Hela smiled.
She had long seen that Mark was cautious and afraid of death, but she didn't care.
Being afraid of death made him easier to control, didn't it?
Hela pursed her lips, a strange smile on her face: "You underestimate yourself too much, Mark."
"Also, you seem to underestimate the power of the fragments of the Heart of the Universe."
"Keep this vial of potion. It will greatly enhance your abilities for a short period."
"Combined with the fragments of the Heart of the Universe, believe me, you will succeed, Mark."
"Your only consideration now is how to maximize the effect of these two fragments!"
Mark took the purple potion, feeling that it was strange.
But with his life threatened, he seemed to have no other choice.
"How much time do I have to prepare?" Mark asked again.
To ensure the success of the plan, he still needed to prepare some props to assist.
Of course, the money spent was all paid by Hela.
"At the fastest, three days. At the latest, within a week, we will act."
The other man spoke.
He held a mirror in his hand.
On the mirror, there were only blurry images, looking like prophecies.
"Three days..." Mark murmured to himself.
"Time is a bit tight, but this is just an estimate. I can extend the time to a week. This is the most foolproof choice."
The man explained in a deep voice.
"If the prophecy is correct, Lin Feng will return to Blue Star soon."
"On Blue Star, it's his most relaxed moment, and it's also when our success rate is highest!"
Hela nodded and interjected, "V is right. The usage time for the small dark room is also nearing its limit."
"At that time, we will be exposed to Lin Feng's search and become passive."
"So we must take the initiative. And given Lin Feng's personality, we will only have one chance. Seize it!"
Mark nodded silently.
"I understand, I will try my best..."
For something as crucial as his life, Mark did not hesitate. He immediately took out his communicator and began preparing supplies through his channels.
Lin Feng, far away on Owen Planet, knew nothing of this. He merely felt inexplicably that someone was secretly praising him for being handsome.
After dismissing his clone, Lin Feng returned to his room to sleep.
Although the houses were good, the rooms were too close, and the soundproofing was bound to be an issue.
So Lin Feng did not do anything small that night and slept peacefully.
The others were also quite tired after playing all day, so the night was exceptionally quiet.
Only the sound of waves and the chirping of some nocturnal creatures remained on the planet.
However, the next morning, what Lin Feng had mentioned did happen.
Because Tony's act of illegally detecting resources, the forces belonging to Owen Planet came knocking.
Early in the morning, several inspectors arrived.
Tony happened to be outside admiring the morning sea view and was immediately surrounded by this inspection team.
Good heavens, they started a barrage of accusations against Tony, essentially blaming him and making his actions sound extremely serious.
Finally, they stated that Tony should compensate them with universal currency.
Tony smiled. He thought it was a big deal, but it turned out they were here for compensation.
He didn't lack money, did he!
However, Tony's smile soon faded.
These people actually demanded one hundred million units of universal currency as compensation!!
Tony was instantly dumbfounded.
He felt that for merely detecting a small area of minerals, he was being asked to pay such a huge sum. Wasn't this clearly extortion?
Thus, the two sides began to argue.
The commotion soon woke Lin Feng.
Their houses were right next to each other, and coincidentally, Tony and this group were arguing right by Lin Feng's window.
A little annoyed, though he basically didn't need to sleep anymore, Lin Feng slept not to recover energy, but to enjoy a soft bed and quiet moments.
"What are you doing, Tony? Making such a racket early in the morning?!"
Yawning, Lin Feng opened the door.
"Lin?"
"You've come at the right time."
"They are people from the forces belonging to Owen Planet. Just because I detected some resources, they want one hundred million as compensation. Can you believe it?!"
Tony spread his hands, completely unwilling to pay the money.
The group of inspectors became even more displeased.
"We have explicit regulations here: one hundred million for one detection!"
"To put it more seriously, your actions constitute illegal surveying of our force's property."
"You should be glad you didn't extract any ore, otherwise, you'd be rotting in a space prison!"
As he spoke, the team produced a document with an seal of indecipherable alien script.
Pointing to a line of text, they showed it to Tony.
Tony couldn't understand it and didn't bother to look, because the other party's impolite threat directly ignited Tony's temper.
