Nuclear Warhead Cooked in Wine

At the opening ceremony of Sea Blue Star Basic Military Academy, as the representative of the incoming freshmen, Guding proclaimed his grand ambition in front of all the teachers and students: 
"I'm Guding! I'm gonna become the Man with the Highest Bounty in the entire Cosmic Sea!"
--------------------------------------------
It is an era of artificial superintelligences, interstellar travel, gene medicine, and virtual reality worlds. 
Far into Earth's future, 15-year-old Gu Ding is a student of Cerulean Military Academy by day, and tavern waiter by night. 
His ambition: Become the space pirate with the highest bounty offered by the Universal Federation Government. 
With the help of Neptune, a neonate super-intelligence, Guding finds himself thrust into a galaxy of shadowy organizations, political under dealings, and otherworldly forces that lie beyond human comprehension…

The Highest Bounty

(Second post is almost an hour late... Today is Qixi Festival, wishing everyone a happy holiday~~)


Willis gave Guding ten hours because he needed those to strengthen the Forbidden seals around the Giant Wood Forest.


During this bountiful harvest, ten hours seemed particularly short, almost passing in a blink.


Guding and his party regathered at the entrance, and Willis soon appeared, but Quinn was nowhere to be seen. Being a Divine herself and with Dragon Valley Star not far from Forget Sorrow Star, it wasn't a hassle for her to return to Dragon Valley Star on her own.


Guding had long since exited his flame state and reverted to his original youthful appearance.


Upon seeing him, Willis was momentarily startled, but he quickly recovered, inspecting Guding closely before exclaiming in surprise, "So you are this young!"


"Not young anymore, I'll be sixteen next month." Guding didn't like being treated as a child.
