Chapter 885 - 884: A Step, A Kill
On the Transit Planet, fighting was prohibited, since countless bloody examples from years past remained before their eyes. Those who disobeyed the decree, as well as their clans, were eradicated, executed together.
It could be said that to fight and seek revenge on the Transit Planet meant to openly resist the Six Major Forces, to blatantly challenge them.
In this world, who dared to challenge the Six Major Forces? Therefore, the outcome of those who did was predictable—they had to be killed. Then an investigation would follow to dig to the roots, implicating their relatives in collective punishment.
This policy of collective punishment had made the Transit Planet a safe haven for countless years. Even if there were occasional vendettas, they were carried out through assassination or stealth attacks. The attackers would escape immediately after the killing, leaving no trace. There was no widespread destruction; the Teleportation formation remained intact.
The reason for this collective punishment was mainly to protect the Teleportation formation. It was essential to all, used by all forces. If someone went on a rampage on the Transit Planet, destroying the Teleportation formation in the heat of battle or by accident, it would cut off everyone’s route. Therefore, even the most notorious villains would not easily destroy the Teleportation formation. After all, it was extremely dangerous—and virtually impossible—to travel through interstellar space without it; one could get lost.
Yusuf Zuck was an outsider, so he didn’t care at all about the rules and laws here. His goal was to start with Sword Tower to find the whereabouts of his family.
The Transit Planet he and Selena Gould had arrived at was now very close to the Central Star, making it exceedingly prosperous.
Sword Tower had a branch here, and all Sword Tower Assassins passing through this planet could enter the branch to rest or receive orders and intelligence from headquarters.
When Yusuf Zuck and Selena Gould arrived outside the branch of Sword Tower, several people were entering and leaving the grand entrance. Most were cloaked figures carrying knives or swords, all dressed in black, some with their faces covered, some not.
Of course, there were also some outsiders. These people, unable to resolve their grudges by themselves, came here with a lot of money to hire assassins to kill their enemies!
