The Spider Queen-Chapter 730 The Horrific Sight Of A Human
(Nyrean Super Galaxy- Rtern Region)
(Unknown Location- Unnamed Planet)
A humanoid figure covered in an oversized brown cloak sat down in a chair. There was a plain white mask over his face that concealed his facial features.
He raised up his hand and an alien with translucent skin extended a tendril over to an empty glass in front of him.
The tendril trembled violently and then a pinkish ooze leaked out from the tip of the appendage.
This ooze slowly dripped into the glass until it was half full. Small pinkish bubbles appeared in the liquid that made delightful popping noises.
The translucent alien muttered some incomprehensible words under its breath and then withdrew its tendril to tend to another customer.
Rokan raised up the cup to his lips but did not drink. His eyes scanned the other patrons in this bar-like place.
A pair of slender snake-like aliens with long jagged teeth were currently wrapped around each other making noises that were definitely not safe for work.
In the corner of the room there was a group of five gelatinous blobs that were discussing the philosophy of god, the universe and the answer to everything.
Other creatures and species each more colourful and diverse than the last filled up the rest of the bar making it seem like a miniature alien ecosystem.
The Federines Collective.
A region of space that held many mysteries.
The Federines Collective was the fourth inter-galaxy superpower along with the Unova Syndicate, Insectoid Empire, and the Earth Federation.
Little was known about the planets and territories within this region of space because the borders were so heavily guarded.
And now Rokan found himself with the perfect opportunity. He was currently somewhere inside the territory of the Federines Collective.
The information that he could collect and gather would be invaluable military intelligence to the Imperial Army.
Sigh... old habits died hard...
Rokan took in a deep breath and chased those thoughts out of his mind. He was not here on a scouting mission.
He only had one objective and that was to go home and see his daughter. She must be worried and terrified about his disappearance.
Would she be okay?
No... she would be fine... Katarina, Gerald, Secretary Young... they were all qualified advisors.
He had created a robust system to manage the properties under his name and even if she lost money or certain industries...
There was enough wealth in his bank accounts for her to live comfortably for thousands of years.
Maybe his daughter had even taken over his place as the next head of House Peterlor.
A small smile flashed across Duke Peterlor's face as he imagined how beautiful and strong Sophie must have looked during the succession ceremony.
"Hey cutie," a hoarse guttural voice whispered from the side.
The duke turned in the direction of the noise and saw a two-feet tall alien looking at him with a wide grin on its fox-like face.
The language that the creature was speaking was the common tongue of the Federines.
It was a difficult language to learn since it involved making click-like noises and contorting one's vocal orifice into impossible positions.
It had been tough to understand at first but as a god stage cultivator, Rokan could easily analyse and learn the language after being exposed to it for a few hours.
Now he was practically fluent!
"You looking for some..." the alien continued to whisper in a soft tone.
He rummaged around in its pockets and glanced around the room before shuffling closer. He pulled out a transparent crystal that shone with an eerie light.
Rokan could make out small flacks of a whitish material coating the edge of the crystal.
"No thank you," Rokan politely declined.
"Alright no problem handsome but... what do you want? Cason oil? The purple potion? Drgonea crystals?" the alien asked curiously while rubbing its feathery wings together.
"I don't suppose you sell information?" the duke asked casually as he raised up his glass and pretended to take another sip.
"What do you want to know?" the alien replied back in an equally relaxed tone.
"You know any smugglers? I'm looking for..." the duke's voice was no louder than a whisper as he leaned in.
"Goods brought in from the outside."
The alien fell silent, and a suspicious expression flashed across his face.
He looked at the duke, but his entire body and face was covered by the oversized robe and a white mask.
The alien opened his mouth to say something, but a loud commotion suddenly came from the front of the building.
Ten large creatures with rippling muscles and hulking frames burst through the doors.
Their powerful bodies destroyed the thin sheet of metal that was covering the entrance to the bar.
These creatures were vaguely humanoid, but it was hard to make out any of their features due to the dark black armour that covered most of their bodies.
Still one could make out patches of exposed skin that was a pale- white colour as if the blood in their bodies had been drained away. Please visit 𝗳re𝚎𝚠𝐞𝗯𝙣𝗼ν𝗲l. c૦𝓶
"Shit! The enforcers," the tiny alien cursed under his breath as he quickly tucked his drugs away back under his cloak.
Enforcers were the law.
Break the rules of the Federines Council or simply piss off one and you could spend the rest of your life in a jail cell.
Well... that's if you were lucky enough to avoid execution. The society of the Federines Collective was governed by one main theme.
Order.
Every citizen and visitor were expected to obey the law.
The enforcer leading the pack was significantly larger than the rest and he held a long plasma weapon in his right hand.
The weapon throbbed and hummed with power. Immediately all the customers in the bar fell silent.
It was so quiet that one would be able to hear a pin drop.
"Has anyone seen this individual," the enforcer next to the leader calmly spoke. She raised up a small metalloid device and a holographic projection filled the room.
It displayed an image of a hairless and disgusting looking alien. The strange being wore a black uniform with a plain longsword attached to its hip.
The creature possessed two eyes, a strange appendage with two holes in the middle of its face, red lips and hairy... what the hell were those?
What were those things above its eyes?
Most of the Federines citizens did not know much about the universe outside of their borders so this was the first time that many in the bar had seen a human.
And they were not impressed.
Actually, to be more honest... they felt absolutely repulsed by the strange looking creature whose body seemed utterly bizarre.
One of the gelatinous slimes leaned over his chair and vomited profusely at the sight while a slender snake-like creature opened its jaws wide in shock before fainting away.
The small alien gagged and turned to the figure covered in heavy robes to make a comment about the image.
But he found nothing.
The humanoid figure that had been sitting by the edge of the bar was now long gone and only a glass half full with pinkish ooze remained.
"What?" the small alien exclaimed in a puzzled tone.
"Where did he go?"
