Chapter 2052 - 2052 Life with the Guardians

2052 Life with the Guardians

As a racc.o.o.n who was tormented by a long-term ailment, what was it like to suddenly feel comfortable all over? It was even more comfortable than taking drugs.

After all, medical drugs could only treat the pain, but Light of Life could significantly reduce it and revitalize the patient.

Luke had used this move in 2023 to make Rocket drop his guard.

Since he had already confirmed that this method was effective, he used it again.

Light of Life flowed through Rocket and made him feel soft all over. Luke used Mental Communication to soothe him. Soon, Rocket told him about how Quill had killed his father, Ego.

The plot was so bizarre that even Luke, who had heard and seen so much, was stunned. Ego lived up to his Celestial status what kind of G.o.dly operation was that?!

It hadnt been easy for Ego to find Quill, this son who had inherited his bloodline. Given how much of a fool Quill looked, it had been easy to dupe him at first.

In the end, this idiot Celestial actually admitted to Quills face that he was the one who had killed Quills mother; he even crushed Quills Walkman.

Infuriated, Quill fought Ego, and this Celestial died at his sons hands.

Because of that, Quill lost the power of the Celestials which he had inherited from Ego.

In other words, the reason Luke had been able to earn ten billion experience and credit points from Ego was because of Quill.

Luke felt that he owed this good son a favor for saving Earth and delivering his fathers head to Luke, so he stopped trying to dupe this small team.

Although these Guardians of the Galaxy were a small team, they were still split into three parties.

Quill and Gamora were sort of a couple, and could be considered one party.

Rocket and the little tree, Groot, had been partners for a long time, and were one party.

Drax and Mantis could be considered a third party, but the former was a simple-minded person, and the latter was a naive girl. The two of them never partic.i.p.ated in any decision-making.

Now that Luke had taken care of Quill and Rocket, he had won over a significant portion of the Guardians of the Galaxy.

Gamora, the female alien, was the most normal and wary of the lot.

However, it was hard for her to go against the flow as a lone individual. She could only watch as her teammates grew closer to Big Dipper.

After Luke gave the Guardians a 100-cubic meter s.p.a.ce storage, however, even Gamora was won over.

Food, water and daily necessities werent worth much, but they were a must.

Also, the regular firearms, s.p.a.ce suits and flight suits that everybody used every day werent expensive, but could save lives at a critical moment.

Quill almost cried when he received this gift. If he had this thing when he left Egos planet, Yondu wouldnt have had to die.

If he had s.p.a.ce suits in the s.p.a.ce storage back then, Quill would have been able to take them out and equip Yondu, and both of them would have survived.

Rocket winked at Luke. This is awesome. Youve made fortunes with this, right?

I only take what I should. Luke chuckled. Also, its more useful for storing equipment you get it.

Rockets eyes lit up, and he slapped his forehead. Thats right. If I use this to break out of prison, my reputation as the King of Jailbreaks will definitely increase.

Luke coughed and nudged his shoulder. Im saying that if an enemy catches you, you can look for an opportunity to counterattack.

Bullsh*t, thats not Rocket turned around and saw Gamora glaring at him from the back door that had just opened.

Rocket changed the topic. Hm, lets study how to counterattack. He then winked at Luke.

Luke sighed and put his hand to his forehead.

Seeing that, Rocket was instantly vexed. D*mn it, did I use my left eye again?

Luke nodded silently. This d*mn quirk of yours! You like to wink with your left eye when youre lying. Can you even lie properly?

After getting to know the Guardians better, Luke stopped talking about leaving on his own.

Every day, he would look for Quill and Gamora to chat about what was happening in the universe, or he would sell some small equipment to Rocket.

Despite his small stature, Rocket was capable enough to be on par with Quill.

From s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps to fliers, from armor to weapons, there were few things that he didnt know how to handle. However, what he still loved most were big guns with ma.s.sive firepower.

Luke simply found a desolate planet, took out an M2 heavy machine gun, and let Rocket fire tens of thousands of bullets to his hearts content.

In terms of technology and power, the M2 heavy machine gun was definitely outdated, but the roar and vibrations made Rocket yell in excitement.

There were also many gun enthusiasts on Earth who liked to collect and play with old guns that were hundreds of years old.

Rocket was a cosmic-level gun enthusiast, and got a very big kick out of playing with them.

Quill thought it was boring and couldnt help but say something sarcastic along the lines of outdated and backward, only to be shut down by Rockets Your Walkman and songs are just as outdated.

Compared with Tony, Rocket was the cla.s.sic example of a vagrant.

He had no fixed a.s.sets, no job and no relatives. Even this swallow s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p was the common property of the Guardians.

Initially, his biggest joy was in taking big Groot around to look for money or valuable things.

That was until he met Quill and Gamora more than a year ago. Together, they defeated Ronan the Accuser in the Nova Empire, and then defeated Ego a few months ago. That had been very invigorating.

But they had been idle for the last few months; Rocket couldnt even talk about robbing people In front of Gamora. He was already so bored that he was dozing off.

As for doing good in s.p.a.ce, that wasnt his style at all.

For example, when they received Lukes distress signal, he and Quill had been prepared to save him along with all his money.

With the arrival of Luke, this fellow enthusiast and doctor, most of Rockets attention was diverted. One person and one racc.o.o.n tinkered with equipment in the rear cabin every day.

When these two techies started tinkering, Quill was depressed it wasnt fun anymore when n.o.body bickered over which direction to head in.

However, Quill had always liked to say that this was his s.h.i.+p, so he could only shoulder that responsibility.

In fact, one person and one racc.o.o.n talked a lot in the rear cabin, and had privately reached a trade agreement for tech gear.

Even if Luke left the Guardians in the future, they could leave messages in the s.p.a.ce storage as well as trade tech and equipment.

It had to be said that there was indeed so much high-end tech in the universe.

Even a small private team like the Guardians of the Galaxy all had protective nano energy flight suits.

The suits had many protective functions and life support systems.

Quill wore a T-s.h.i.+rt and a leather coat while Drax only wore pants as they flew around in s.p.a.ce. It was just that the protective suits didnt affect the outer appearance of their regular attire.
