Chapter 2040: Lighting up the Dream in Your Heart (Thirty-Five)

Jason Spartacus wanted to take his wife back after he took the throne, but when he wanted to return to Earth, Prince Gareth stopped him and told him that his wife had died of dystocia.

Jason didn't doubt it at first, but he found something wrong afterwards. But if he sent someone to Earth at this time, if the facts were really as Gareth said, it would be easy to make Gareth feel disappointed.

So he asked Gareth how he got the news. Gareth told him that when he learned from Jason that his brother had another wife on Earth, he immediately sent someone to find her, but only found a tombstone when he went there.

Jason felt more and more that something was wrong. He was not so close to Gareth before he was exiled to Earth. How could his brother be so kind that he went to find her as soon as he learned that he had a sister-in-law?

But he still didn't go to Earth rashly, but began to secretly investigate Gareth's men, and then learned from them that Gareth sent someone to kill his wife and some accidents happened when he kidnapped the child.

Jason felt very angry at the time, but Gareth was still useful at that time, so Jason decided to keep him first, but he had to find his child first.

So he found a well-informed interstellar pirate and contacted Yondu, who was responsible for the search, and asked him to go to Earth to bring his child back.

This matter is simple to say, but it is just a trip, but it is extremely difficult to operate in practice. First of all, it is difficult to sneak into the center of the nine kingdoms.

The only possible opportunity is when Odin goes out to fight. After Yondu discovered this, he told Jason that he could only wait, waiting for a chance for a predator to sneak into the nine kingdoms.

But more than a decade ago, Odin had realized the problem of Asgard and had the idea of ​​transformation. The war was not as frequent as before, and this wait lasted for several years.

In the process of waiting, Jason's throne became more and more stable, and the status of the Spartacus Empire continued to improve. He inevitably had greater ambitions and wanted to seek the position of the Spartacus Empire in the interstellar society.

But not every civilization is Asgard, which can directly sit at the negotiation table of the three empires. At least the Spartacus Empire has not reached this level.

So Jason Spartacus planned to join the Galactic Congress in the Milky Way first, and then gradually control power in the Galactic Congress, using this as a springboard to step onto the interstellar stage.

But at that time, the Spartacus Empire was not so sure to join the Galactic Congress, and Jason had to ensure that there would be no accidents as much as possible.

Jason conducted a detailed study of the rules of the Galactic Congress, and then he found that his illegitimate son on Earth was really a problem.

So he urgently stopped Yondu's infiltration operation, gave Yondu a letter, and told him that this would be a long-term mission. The prince with Spartacus' blood flowing in his body could not stay on Earth forever, and asked Yondu to pay close attention and provide help when necessary.

Just as Quill said, Jason wanted to join the Galactic Congress again. He had ambitions for greater power, but he was reluctant to give up his family affection and wanted to get a biological son as his heir for free, so he bet on both sides and was unwilling to give up either.

Quill felt sad after figuring it all out, but after all, he hadn't dealt with his biological father for so many years, and didn't have much affection for him. He could only sigh in disappointment.

He looked at Jason and shook his head and said, "Okay, if this is your decision, I won't interfere with your choice as the king. We will leave the Spartacus Empire and never come back."

He turned and left, but the moment he pushed open the door, the cold light on the guards' weapons reflected the cold face of the Spartacus King behind Quill.

"Peter, you can't leave now, I have something to ask you."

Quill's hand immediately touched the gun on his waist, and several members of the Guardians of the Galaxy also took out their weapons, but more guards appeared outside the door, and Quill looked back at Jason in disbelief.

"You just came back from Earth, right?" Jason stepped forward and looked at Quill and said, "Tell me what's going on with humanity now."

Quil pursed his lips tightly, and the anger and sadness on his face were obvious. He was about to open his mouth to scold Jason, but Rocket Raccoon jumped on his shoulder, patted the back of his head, and signaled him to be patient.

"Your Majesty, you are not trying to force us to tell you about the intelligence of our Earth, are you?" Rocket Raccoon shook his ears, narrowed his eyes and showed his fangs, and then said, "Do you really know what you are doing?"

"This is not forcing." Jason shook his head and said, "I just want to know the current situation of the Earth."

Quil became even angrier. He took out a gun and pointed it at Jason's head and said, "Don't think you can get anything from me, anything, you damn heartless man!"

"Peter, please understand that I don't want to force you." Jason spread his hands and looked at Peter and said, "Now the entire Galactic Council wants to know what happened to human civilization. Why do they suddenly seem to have a clue?"

Jason's worries were actually stronger than he showed. If the human threat theory was just a slogan before, the human's performance now can be said to be "bad, they really learned it".

First, the mutants migrated to Andromeda and illegally occupied land, which made other civilizations with weaker interstellar colonization capabilities jealous. Then, the business of the Sanctuary of the Nine Kingdoms continued, which made many civilizations that made a living by interstellar merchants jealous.

What broke Jason's defense the most was that Asgard returned to the interstellar society, and humans also rose to the sky, directly crossing the ascending channel of galaxies, star clusters, and star fields, and were carried by Asgard to sit at the negotiation table of the three empires, or they were carried by each other.

Jason worked hard here for a long time, and he could barely be said to have a say in the Galactic Parliament. He was still a long way from contacting the power center of the interstellar society. How could he balance it?

Of course, these are just some opinions, not involving actual interests, and what really made the Galactic Parliament gather to discuss the next development direction is the real threat brought by the rapid development speed of humans.

In the past, Earth was the target of bullying by civilizations such as the Galactic Council. Anyway, they held a super cool party, but they just didn't let Earth participate, and they resolutely didn't allow Earth to contact any civilization in the Milky Way.

Isolating and bullying someone will strengthen the cohesion within a group, which is also one of the reasons for the frequent occurrence of school bullying. Seeing the bleak scene of Earth constantly sending signals but no one responding is the source of the sense of superiority of civilization members of the Galactic Council.

But now the other party has really turned over and developed at an astonishing speed, so we must consider the possibility of retaliation from the other party, and the Spartacus Empire is also within the scope of retaliation.

Jason has another consideration. Now the civilizations in the Galactic Council are panicking and can't come up with countermeasures. The main reason is that they don't have the most important information.

If he can get the information before other civilizations, he will have the initiative, and it will be easy to seize power in the Galactic Council.

Gamora has been under Thanos for so long, and she didn't just learn how to fight. Her mind was like lightning, and she immediately thought about the key points and understood the purpose of Yondu's letter to them.

So she immediately put her hand on Quill's shoulder, told him not to be impulsive, then looked at Jason and said, "You did betray them, didn't you? You're not a good father, so even if you have more reasons, he won't accept it easily."

Jason took a deep breath, his expression slightly relaxed, he looked at Quill again, and then said, "I'll give you some time, Peter, think about it, now you have no relatives on Earth, only Spartacus is your home."

After that, he asked the guards to take the Guardians of the Galaxy away.

They were not locked up in the prison, but in a more spacious guest room, but there were guards on the balcony and outside the door. Jason obviously meant that he would not let them go unless they spit out some information.

"Why did you stop me?" Quill turned to look at Gamora, and said angrily: "I won't let him succeed, I will never tell him anything!"

He clenched his fists and whispered in great grief: "My mother believed in him until her death, believed that he would come back to find us, believed that he would at least not abandon me, but he betrayed us!"

"Have you ever thought about why Yondu gave you this letter? He just wanted you to find Jason." Gamora explained: "Don't forget, you admitted in front of Asgard that you are Yondu's adopted son."

Quill looked at Gamora with wide eyes in confusion, as if trying to search for the meaning of this sentence on her face.

Gamora sighed helplessly and said: "If Yondu dies in Asgard and refuses to confess, who else do you think the Asgardians can find?"

Quill was stunned.

Then he realized that Yondu deliberately gave him this letter at this time and asked him to come to Spartacus to find Jason. He wanted to divert the trouble.

Yondu first asked Asgard to release his adopted son, which was not only to create an opportunity for Quill and his party to leave, but also to explain to the Asgardians that my adopted son is very important to me and is my weakness.

Then he gave this letter to Quill, who would definitely be confused after seeing it. He came to the Spartacus Empire to find Jason, and after Yondu was taken to Asgard, he began to argue with the people there, which was completely inconsistent with his previous attitude of cooperation.

In order to make Yondu cooperate with Asgard, he could only come to find Yondu's adopted son. Whether it was for threat or to let Quill go back to persuade his adoptive father, they definitely hoped that Quill would go to Asgard as well.

But there was another problem. Quill was Jason Spartacus's biological son. Although he was not a formal prince, he made a lot of noise when he killed Gareth. The power center basically knew that their king had only one biological child.

Asgard came to the door angrily to ask for someone, and if he wanted someone who had nothing to do with him, most of the leaders of civilizations would just give in. After all, there were too many people who gave in to this bunch of reckless men, and it was not shameful.

But if he wanted his own son, that was another matter. In order to give in to Asgard, he even gave away his own son. What prestige could the king have?

Besides, Asgard, if you go to ask for the aliens who are stationed there, it's fine. But if you go to their country to ask for their prince, isn't that just stepping on their heads and shitting? How is it different from those pirates who kidnapped the dignitaries of interstellar civilizations?

If Asgard really did this, then the moral high ground of maintaining interstellar security would not stand.

After listening to Gamora's explanation, Quill's back was sweating. He just vaguely felt that Yondu might have been calculated by Loki, but he didn't expect that they were all foxes of a thousand years, and no one should play Liao Zhai with each other. There is no stupid person who can get along in the interstellar society.

As an interstellar pirate, Yondu has been able to run rampant in the interstellar society for so long not just by fists. He is proficient in everything, such as sowing discord, fanning the flames, and driving tigers to devour wolves.

And this time, he wants Spartacus and the Galactic Council behind him to restrain Asgard from each other, so as to fight for a way out for himself.

Sure enough, not long after, Quill heard noises outside the house. He stood by the window and looked out into the distance, and saw the flames of the Asgard spacecraft's iconic divine engine appear outside the port of Spartacus Prime.
