I Just Wanted to Be a Galactic Hunter—Why Am I on the Wanted List?

”Understood, I’ll be careful.” Loren responded in his mind, his tone unreadable.

After answering the raven’s suggestion, Loren seemed to sense something. He looked up thoughtfully at the nightscape outside the car window.

The night view of the Jadeite Star Domain’s Main City was quite beautiful. Dazzling neon lights illuminated most of the streets.

It was peaceful and picturesque.

Another two minutes passed.

The hovercar passed by a district where most areas were plunged into darkness.

The peaceful atmosphere vanished.

That familiar feeling of decay Loren knew well emanated from the dark district.

It was the unique scent of the ”Gray Zone.”

”Where is that outside?” Loren suddenly asked the hovercar driver.”Sir, are you referring to that dark street? This place is called Baker District. It’s quite chaotic inside. Ordinary people like us wouldn’t dare enter even during the day.”

Loren nodded and said nothing more, silently gazing at the dark Baker District from the car window.

”What’s wrong, Master?” The raven also noticed the change in Loren.

”Do you remember that revolver I personally handed over the day we first arrived in the Jadeite Star Domain? That particular driver gentleman is currently hunting inside that street. It seems that revolver has devoured many Spirit Stones these past few days.”

Loren answered the raven’s question in his mind. His mood was clearly good at this moment.

”I remember. It’s a shame you forgot to ask his name, Master.” The raven recalled the appearance of that driver gentleman.

Loren silently felt the growth of his Psychic Ability within him, a smile curling at the corner of his mouth.

It seems that driver gentleman was very unwilling to submit to his former fate...

Soon, the swiftly moving hovercar distanced itself from Baker Street.

The scenery outside the window once again transformed into a nightscape woven with various dazzling neon lights.

The peaceful and serene atmosphere reappeared outside the window...

”Stay alert. I’m going to nap for a bit.”

After saying this in his mind, Loren once again slipped into a light sleep.

The floating sensation from the hovercar and the beautiful nightscape outside the window always made Loren drowsy.

”Such a beautiful-looking place... I really want to blow it all up...”

Before falling asleep, such a sentence flashed through Loren’s mind.

”Master, you are too extreme.”

...

The hovercar stopped.

”Sir, Labey Street Casino City has arrived. That’s 625 Federation coins.”

The driver gentleman’s voice woke Loren.

Awakened, Loren took out 700 Federation coins from his chest pocket and handed them over.

After putting away the change the driver gave back, Loren opened the car door and stepped out of the hovercar.

Loren looked up, examining this Labey Street Casino City.

The overall building of the casino city wasn’t tall. It resembled more of a manor-style luxury hotel.

It seems infiltrating and escaping from the air isn’t a good method. Too short... Loren silently evaluated in his heart.

Next, Loren casually glanced at the fountain at the casino city’s entrance, silently raising his assessment of this casino city’s danger level.

In Loren’s perception, that ordinary-looking, decorative fountain concealed a Superhuman.

Seemed to be a water-controlling Psychic.

Security is really tight, huh? A Psychic is stationed even before entering...

Loren subtly curled his lip, naturally bypassing the fountain and walking towards the casino city’s entrance.

Four security personnel in black suits also stood at the casino city’s entrance.

All four security personnel simultaneously fixed their gaze on Loren, carefully observing him as he approached the casino entrance.

It couldn’t be helped. The dangerous aura Loren carried from years of navigating the Gray Zone was, in the eyes of certain people, as glaring as the sun.

Loren’s figure calmly passed between the four security personnel. Under their scrutiny, he walked straight into the casino city without glancing sideways.

After Loren entered the casino city, one of the security personnel at the entrance pressed the small communicator on his chest and said:

”Everyone, be alert. A person with a dangerous aura has entered. Stay sharp. Don’t give him a chance to cause trouble.”

Loren, who had just entered the casino city, was only a few steps away from the entrance.

Naturally, Loren heard this sentence.

The other party deliberately said such a sentence while Loren hadn’t yet moved far from the entrance, intentionally letting Loren hear it too.

”A blatant warning? Interesting.” Loren whispered to himself.

Loren was starting to like this casino city. He liked such a direct place.

You seem quite confident in your security capabilities... Loren thought silently.

After entering, Loren walked to the casino city’s front desk reception area.

A waiting receptionist naturally walked up to Loren and introduced to the obviously first-time visitor:

”Sir, please exchange for chips here at the front desk. Because some guests play for rather large amounts, our casino city operates on a chip system.”

Loren nodded. Led by the receptionist, he walked to the front desk. Then, Loren took out 10 Spirit Stones from his chest pocket and handed them over.

”Hello, exchange for chips.”

”Certainly, sir. One moment.”

The front desk staff respectfully collected the 10 Spirit Stones and took out 10 chips, handing them to Loren.

Each chip only had the number ”1” written on it.

”Sir, I wish you a pleasant evening of gaming.”

”I will.” Loren nodded, glancing at the chips in his hand.

Interesting. The lowest chip is one Spirit Stone? It seems this place is quite wealthy. I like it even more...

Led by the receptionist, Loren walked through a long corridor. The decor carried a strong classical atmosphere—solemn, dignified, and austere.

It completely lacked the Federation’s new-era decorative style.

Various peculiar paintings hung on the walls on both sides, all created using the most primitive mineral pigments.

Clearly, the casino city’s owner was also someone who greatly revered the old era.

As Loren followed the other person forward, he examined the old-era style paintings hanging on the walls on both sides, occasionally nodding in appreciation.

Clearly, these classical-style paintings deeply appealed to Loren.

”Sir, if you like them, you can purchase a painting for 1000 Spirit Stones.”

Seeing Loren greatly appreciating these paintings, the receptionist politely spoke up from the side.

”No need. Such beautiful things should be enjoyed by more people.” Loren replied with a smile.

”Sir, you understand art.” The receptionist praised Loren.

Loren shook his head without speaking.

They actually cost 1000 Spirit Stones per painting? I like this place even more...

Following the receptionist, Loren proceeded along the corridor for two minutes.

The end of the corridor finally arrived.

From Loren’s professional perspective, this extremely long classical corridor was also one of the casino city’s defensive measures.

”Sir, I hope your luck is as high as your artistic attainment. I wish you a pleasant time.”

The receptionist escorted Loren here, then politely bid him farewell.

Loren gave a slight nod to the other person, then stepped out of the corridor and entered the casino city’s resplendent, golden main hall.

As he stepped into the main hall, Loren also smiled and whispered in a voice no one could hear:

”Clearly, my artistic attainment cannot compare to my luck.”
