Chapter 270: An Involuntary Assignment

(Unova Syndicate- Sector Alpha-099)

(Unknown Planet)

Bang!

The room shook heavily as the starship landed on the ground with a dull thud. Sophie wrapped her arms around Lily to make sure the little girl didn't fly off the bed.

Screams and curses could be heard from the other mercenaries in the room as some unlucky souls had fallen off their mattresses.

Something was wrong.

Sophie's eyes flickered slightly as she stared at the entrance door. 

The journey to the frontier region was at least two weeks away and there were no scheduled stops planned in-between.

So why had the starship landed?

The lights turned on in the room and Sophie could not help but squint at the sudden brightness. 

She was not the only one as another round of cursing and complaining filled the air as discontent mercenaries were ready to express their displeasure.
