Contrasha star!
A planet covered by snow all year round, but it is not the same concept as Jotunheim, where the frost giants live in the Nine Kingdoms.
Although the climate here is severely cold, it is still suitable for living creatures to live and survive, as long as you can solve the problem of food sources.
No reliable civilization has been born on Contrasha, nor has its territorial rights been claimed by a powerful cosmic empire. It is a no-no-no zone between many cosmic civilizations.
The entire planet is a gold-selling den where people live in debauchery and indulge in extravagance. It is divided into several major areas, filled with bars, brothels, and casinos, and is supported by the entertainment industry.
Because of this feature, Contraxia has become a favorite planet for cosmic mercenaries, black marketeers, and smuggling gangs. Generally speaking, it is a gray area for exchanging intelligence and hiring thugs.
In other words, everyone is welcome here, and there is a mixed bag of people of all kinds.
But if we talk about people from Earth, Russell and Natasha are probably the first and second, and Jason... I almost forgot about him. He was the first dead person from Earth to come to Contrasha.
Following the guidance of the beam on the atmosphere, Russell piloted the Cybertron fighter to randomly select an area, parked it in a wilderness, and took Natasha into the snow.
Testing before departure showed that the gravity of this planet is the same as that of the earth, and there are no toxic gases in the air, making it suitable for the survival of people on earth.
Natasha looked at the shining lights and various strange buildings in front of her, feeling a little uneasy. She suddenly thought of something: "BOSS, do you know how to communicate with aliens?"
"Natasha, don't always talk about aliens. Just like if you go to Wakanda, you will become a foreigner. We are the real aliens now." Russell thought for a while and continued: "Language It’s not a problem, you may not believe it, but the aliens all speak English!”
"What!?"
Russell clapped his hands and gave a thumbs up: "Yes, that's the language!"
Natasha: "..."
"Don't ask me why, I don't know. Just like the aliens in the anime speak Japanese and the aliens in the anime speak Chinese, the reason is the same!" Russell explained, which made Natasha even more confused. .
In fact, Russell didn't know for sure whether the aliens really spoke English, but it wasn't a big problem. He could just ask someone to talk to him and he would figure it out.
Approaching the city ahead, a dozen or so strong alien men walked out, swaying here and there, each with a burly body and the smell of gunpowder smoke all over their bodies.
In terms of appearance, these guys have a similar general structure to Earthlings, but they have a variety of shapes and skin colors... none of them look human anyway.
Passing by Natasha, one of the cross-eyed ugly guys had a look of greed on his face and reached out to rub his crotch. When his companions saw this, they all made a fuss, laughing and cursing.
A bunch of drunks!
Russell stopped suddenly and looked at the group of people up and down, just when the dozen or so alien men thought he wanted to fight. Russell pulled Natasha in front of him, and under her extremely speechless eyes, he pulled down the zipper on her chest a few centimeters.
alien:"……"
Russell smiled mysteriously, pointed to the pile of ruins on the side, and walked over with Natasha.
The aliens looked at each other in confusion, and the cross-eyed ugly ghost immediately followed. The others became happy when they saw this, shaking their heads and taking over behind the ruins.
Crackling!
Two minutes later, Russell came out whistling and nodded the bills in his hand. I don’t know what material the coins are made of, but it doesn’t matter, because my enthusiastic alien friend is now rich.
Noticing Natasha's unfriendly gaze, Russell handed over half of the money: "Don't look at me like that, we are not familiar with each other, and it's hard to do things without money. Also, don't be too proud, that was just a group of people. Drunkard, it doesn’t mean that your charm is big enough to conquer alien races. Just like humans looking at orangutans, in their eyes, you are at best a female, or a female!”
Natasha: "..."
The city is very large and is divided into many areas. The way of dividing the areas is simple and crude. The rich go to the central area, while the poor wander outside.
The unlucky man Russell robbed before was a poor man, so he can be considered a poor man now, but unfortunately there are many alleys in the city, and Natasha's zipper always slides down. After a long time, Russell... is still a poor man.
He took Natasha into a casino and chose gambling games that tested his memory. He quickly accumulated wealth at the pace of two wins and one loss. After raiding five casinos in a row, he finally became a rich man.
Halfway through, Russell's so-called aliens all speak English was defined as a lie. Fortunately, the casino sells translators, which avoids the embarrassing situation of language barrier.
An exquisite and compact earbud translator, the languages of many cosmic civilizations have been recorded. As long as the civilization is not so backward that it has not yet set foot on the home planet, it can be used to translate it.
Russell tried his hand at English and was quickly found by the translator... Found it!
"Why did you find it?"
…
There is a natural difference between the affluent areas and the abject poverty in the outer areas. Although there are not many high-rise buildings, the streets are clean and the people coming and going are neatly dressed.
"BOSS, you look very skilled?" Natasha looked around with the gold card she won from the casino and found that the alien planet was not much different from the earth.
"Nothing... Hey, this hotel is nice, let's go in and have a look." Russell laughed and took Natasha into a nearby hotel.
As soon as he entered, Russell's face was dazzled by the colorful lights. Amidst the piercing and restless music, dozens of aliens of all kinds were twisting their bodies crazily in the center of the dance floor.
"You two, how can I serve you?" the sturdy waiter asked politely. You can tell by the energy gun on his back that he is also responsible for security work when necessary.
Russell pointed to the crazily dancing crowd and asked loudly: "Is this a hotel?"
"Yes, please follow me!"
The waiter took the two people around the bar, took the elevator up to the fifth floor, and explained: "Below the fifth floor are entertainment venues. You two can spend as much as you like without worrying about safety issues."
"Sounds good. It's our first time in this city. Can you give us a detailed introduction?"
The elevator stopped on the fifth floor, and the waiter walked out without following: "Sir, we have a robot for rent here. It can answer all your questions."
After the waiter finished speaking, he pressed the elevator and left.
Russell and Natasha checked into a room and ordered a robot set meal. After entering the room, they studied the electrical appliances in the room and finally came to a conclusion: it really looks like the Earth!
Russell is very curious about everything, but Natasha is not. This may be the difference between men and women, the latter is more interested in the cosmetics in the bathroom.
The wall was pushed open, revealing a voice-activated monitor, which played the TV program inside the planet. Russell adjusted a few channels and stopped at the scene of free fighting. The brutal fight between two aliens really gets people's blood pumping. This is a live fight, and viewers can place bets to participate, although there is no sexy dealer online.
It's a very unique fight. Whoever gets more financial support between the two players will be able to unlock new weapons and have a greater chance of winning.
Russell watched for a while, and was suddenly attracted by the advertisement that was inserted midway. The advertisement was placed by black marketeers, selling everything from snacks and medicinal materials to spaceships and even military weapons.
Not only the finished product, but also the drawings can be negotiated if the price is high enough. Black market merchants have a wide range of options and a strong tone. According to the advertisement, if you pay enough deposit, they can meet all the needs of customers.
This made Russell's eyes light up. The Hydra base was now facing an extremely embarrassing situation. He had a lot of high technology, drawings and knowledge on hand, but he was stuck without a production line and could not achieve rapid development.
"If you can buy it here, you can save at least 10 years..."
Bang bang bang————
There was a knock on the door, and the robot meal Russell ordered came to the door.
A female robot with golden artificial skin and revealing metal clothing stood in front of Russell. She has blood-red eyes, long silver-gray hair, and a tall figure with perfect proportions.
According to her claim, if Russell is dissatisfied with her skin tone, hair color or even facial and body structure, she can adjust it herself. In her database, the female body data of major well-known cosmic civilizations are stored, which can be adjusted to look real.
If Russell is still not satisfied, he can spend money to find a real person. As long as he has money, Zerg beauties are not a problem.
"Wait, this is not the service I want..." Russell's mouth twitched. When he saw this female robot, he suddenly thought of the robot prostitute in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2.
Not to mention, the more we look at it, the more they look alike!
"He really doesn't need this kind of service. It's none of your business here. Get out!"
Natasha opened the bathroom door with a look of displeasure on her face. She just took a shower and tried the alien shower gel, but a robot came to sell it to her door. Where did she lose her face?
The female robot nodded, bowed and exited the room. The service fee had already been calculated anyway, the guest didn't need it, and she couldn't force it.
"Don't look at me, I don't know what the so-called robot package refers to." Russell spread his hands and suddenly realized something: "Speaking of which, that is a robot. Do you want to call me back to study..."
"BOSS, you are so free, study me first!" Natasha snorted, strode over, and pushed Russell down on the sofa.
"Wait a minute, you can't expose anything below your neck..."
…
The next day, Russell turned on the personal computer in the room, and together with Natasha, they browsed the planet, mainly the basic knowledge of the Milky Way.
The two have amazing memories and learn quickly, but learning alone is not enough. Russell packed this material and prepared to take it back to Earth to be used as a cosmic learning textbook.
"It costs money to buy things. Casinos can't solve the problem. What things I have on hand can sell well in the universe..."
Entering the universe, Russell once again lamented that money is a good thing, but he doesn't have it.
