The old Baker who appeared in front of Xingjue was obviously not the one who introduced him to the task of 'Finding the Cosmic Spirit Orb' in the original plot.

It is worth mentioning that the reward amount corresponding to this task on the black market reward list is also different from what Xingjue heard when he accepted the task in the original plot. Using the price that appeared in the movie as a reference, the amount of reward Xingjue saw when he accepted the mission this time was about five times higher.

Why is there such a change?

Speaking of it, it was all the butterfly effect caused by Shi Xiaolei, a traverser.

In the original plot, the task Xingjue received was entrusted by an unknown customer.

Neither Xingjue nor Ronan, who also wanted to get the Cosmic Spirit Orb, knew that there was an Infinity Gem hidden in it. At best, he just knows that this thing is a rare treasure, which can provide the owner with powerful power and make his strength suddenly increase many times.

To put it bluntly, the task Xingjue received at that time was not issued by the collector Di Fan at all. As for the 4 billion bounty offered by the collector Di Fan, he didn't even know anything about it.

And now?

Things became very different from the original plot.

Because of Shi Xiaolei, the Infinity Stones appeared in front of the collector Di Fan early on.

At first, I thought I didn't have such a good life, and subconsciously I didn't think I had the opportunity to collect an Infinity Gem, but after seeing the Infinity Gem brought by Shi Xiaolei with my own eyes, and having a close contact with it, the collector Di Fan felt deeply. The greed in the place was then touched.

Earlier than in the original plot, the idea of ​​"I also want to get an Infinity Gem" sprouted, and the collector Di Fan couldn't wait to start an investigation, and began to collect information related to the Infinity Gem.

After a period of time, he sorted out some clues, and learned that the power gem was made into a cosmic spirit ball by a certain race that had already disappeared. Then, as in the original plot, he got in touch with a group of black market brokers who had been in contact with him, and issued them a mission to find the cosmic spirit ball.

It's not news that I heard occasionally, but I personally investigated and collected information, and finally sorted out some valuable information.

In the original plot, the collector Di Fan offered a high reward of 4 billion because he felt that infinite gems were worth so much money. It wasn't because he already knew that other people were also looking for this thing, and then deliberately set a high price, trying to beat other competitors with a price that was hard to refuse.

And in this universe influenced by Shi Xiaolei, the collector Di Fan has already noticed that other people are also looking for the universe spirit ball when collecting information.

So, in order to get ahead, he didn't just tell a few people the news like in the original plot, but directly put the task on the black market, and spread a big net as soon as he came up.

In addition, in order to avoid suspicion and realize that there is an infinite gem hidden in the cosmic spirit ball, the reward amount offered by the collector Di Fan is not as exaggerated as in the original plot. After all, the actual value of the Cosmic Spirit Ball is only tens of millions more, and even if it is doubled, it is only worth over a hundred million. If you quote 4 billion at the outset, raising the price to tens or hundreds of times more than the actual value, it will only create the effect of "there is no silver three hundred taels here", which is plainly arousing suspicion.

All in all, because of Shi Xiaolei's exposure to the Infinity Stone earlier, Di Fan took action earlier.

Then, another series of chain reactions.

In the end, the task reached Star-Lord through another route completely different from the original plot.

Staying for a while longer means that the possibility of being discovered will increase by one point. In order to avoid being discovered by the Xandars, Star-Lord immediately left Xandar on the newly maintained Miranda.

After confirming that he had left the sphere of influence of the Xandars, Star-Lord found an asteroid, parked the Miranda in a naturally formed pit, and began to study the information obtained from Old Baker.

There is a lot of content and a lot of information.

After sorting it out for a while, Star-Lord confirmed a few pieces of valuable information—first, the Cosmic Spirit Orb was a treasure left by the Morags; Time, when it was at its strongest, occupied a star system with thirteen planets, and set up several other outposts outside this star system; third, the demise of the Morag people was mostly due to the civil war , and a small part of the reason came from the environmental changes caused by the abuse of weapons. From the beginning to the end, other races were not involved.

"That is to say, you don't need to consider other planets, you just need to look for them on the territory that the Morag once occupied."

Holding his chin, he flipped the information back to the page marked 'Territory Map', and Xingjue fell into thinking again.

The silent atmosphere lasted for about three minutes.

"Forget it, don't think about it, let's start with Morag first." Unable to figure out why, Xingjue had to settle for the next best thing, and chose a stupid way: "It's not too big anyway, the big deal is nothing. Run again. Morag Star is their home star, if that thing is really important, the probability of keeping it on the home star should be higher.”

After making up his mind, Xingjue returned to the cab, started the engine again, drove the Miranda away from the asteroid, and flew in the direction of the Morag star.

Friends who have watched the original movie should have the impression that the location of Morag is very remote, in a very desolate star field.

What is remoteness?

Generally speaking, UU reading www.uukanshu. The farther the com is from the 'center' and the closer to the 'edge' area, the more remote it is.

But in the universe, this concept is not the same as on the earth, or not exactly the same.

Generally speaking, it is true that the farther a place is, the more remote it is, but if it is true, the word remote is more suitable to describe those places that are inconvenient in transportation and difficult for ordinary people to reach.

To put it more bluntly, whether it is remote or not, the key depends on how many star gates are around, that is, wormholes that allow people to travel quickly.

If it's just that the location is relatively remote, but there are wormholes everywhere around the star field, then this star field is actually not enough to be evaluated as remote. On the contrary, if the location is not that close to the so-called 'edge', but there is no wormhole nearby for people to come and go, if it can only fly over bit by bit, then it is undoubtedly a remote place.

The Morag star, or the star field that the Morag people occupied at the beginning, belonged to the latter.

For the same example, there is also planet C53, which is the solar system where the earth is located.
