Chapter 673 - Everybody's Darling, Flowers Bloom for You

Chapter 673: Everybody’s Darling, Flowers Bloom for You

He underestimated Hong Dali.

Who was Hong Dali? He was someone who lived two lives. He had gone through transmigration, he naturally wouldn’t care much about a Space Storage.

“Alright. It’s a pity.” Hong Dali mumbled and put the watch back. “En, not bad.”

“You’re not wearing it?” Tang Long asked curiously.

“We have not held the ceremony yet, I can’t just accept Grandpa Invincible East’s things,” Hong Dali said as a matter-of-factly. “Ah, please continue…”

“Such a good person…” Tang Long was so touched he was crying. He continued, “The second item is this Venerable Mecha. Without me, you will never be able to find the Venerable Mecha. After all, my master was afraid of the trouble that would arise from people finding it.”

“En, en. Indeed.” Hong Dali nodded. “Is there more?”

“The third item is the Thunder Angel Core.” Tang Long looked around fondly. “Thunder Angel’s Core, the central controller for the Thunder Angel. The most costly object in Thunder Angel is this core.” As he said that, he sighed. “It’s a pity, its energy was almost completely depleted in the battle with the Zergs. The most critical thing is that the Advanced High-Energy Electronic Collision Engine was damaged. With your current resources, it should be impossible to repair it. Many of the parts require high-grade metals which are hard to acquire—don’t look at me with that expression. You might be able to get them from the Galaxy Alliance Central Market. You just have to replace it.”

En, that sounds more like it. At least there was a chance to repair it.

“The fourth item, also the most important one.” After talking about the first three items, Tang Long started talking about the fourth item. “This item is well-loved by all intelligent living beings. Everybody’s darling, flowers will bloom for it.”

As he said that, everyone revealed a perplexed expression.

This, could it be… money?

Indeed. Tang Long was very satisfied with everyone’s wit. “That’s right. Everyone is right. It’s money!”

It was money, indeed! The affluent Invincible East! The champion of East Galaxy Mecha Competition with thirty-six consecutive wins. The money that he left behind should be of an astronomical number!

“How much is it?” Hong Dali stared with his eyes wide open. “Quick, tell us!”

Hearing Hong Dali’s question, the other stretched out their necks in anticipation.

“One million!” Tang Long smiled. “One million Galaxy Dollars! How is it… why are you looking at me like that?”

Heck! Such a mighty figure, his inheritance is only one million Galaxy Dollars? Who are you trying to lie to?!

Seeing that everyone was about to jump out and kill someone, Tang Long quickly continued, “Ah, let me finish. This inheritance is the initial pocket money for the Young Master…”

Pocket money, that’s more like it…

Tang Long: “Master was afraid that when the new master arrived at the Galaxy Alliance, he would attract the wrong attention if he had too much money on hand. While the foundation is still weak, it’d be bad to attract those unscrupulous people. Hence, the initial pocket money is one million Galaxy Dollars. A little goes a long way. There’s still a lot of money, don’t worry.”

You should have said so earlier, see how nervous you made us…

“En, I understand now.” Hong Dali looked around. “Grandpa Invincible East had left me a Space watch, a Thunder Angel Core which cannot be used, a Venerable Mecha which I’m not sure if it can be used, and one million. Right? That’s not bad. One million is the key!”

Hong Dali didn’t care much about other stuff. With one million, he finally had money to squander!

“En.” Tang Long nodded. “Galaxy Alliance Center is a place that is particular about qualifications. If you agree to acknowledge my master as your ancestor and become a Galaxy Aristocrat, everything would be easy. But because you did not agree to it, we can only develop slowly. Otherwise, it would not be good to give you too much money at once.”

“I understand. Don’t worry.” Hong Dali was one who was content. “As long as there is some. I don’t ask for much.”

As he said that, Hong Weiguo’s voice was heard. He came really fast. “Dali, are you here?”

“Dad, Mum!” Hearing that, Hong Dali hurriedly welcomed them. “You’re here!”

“Aiyo, our Dali is so competent. You are actually in contact with aliens!” Lan Ruoxi beamed. “Our little prodigal, you’re really a piece of work, haha!”

“Mum, quick come.” Hong Dali pulled Lan Ruoxi to Invincible East’s crystal coffin and said, “I have just acknowledged this Grandpa Invincible East as my predecessor. He’s really great, a champion with thirty-six consecutive wins!”

“Hmm, the strongest does deserve respect.” Hong Weiguo brought Lan Ruoxi, along with Hong Dali, and bowed respectfully toward Invincible East’s body. Hong Weiguo said, “I hope Mr. Invincible East will bless our Hong Dali safety and things to be smooth sailing for him.”

Lan Ruoxi looked around and soon saw Tang Long. She asked, “Mister, you’re a butler?” Lan Ruoxi was sharp indeed. She could tell at one glance—alright, she already knew the rest of the people…

“Yes.” Tang Long nodded. “Hello, lady.”

“En, I wanted to ask. Such an important person like Mr. East, have you thought of how to preserve his body?” Lan Ruoxi asked. According to Heavenly State’s custom, the dead were to be buried so they will be at peace. Hence, she wanted to find out how she could help.

Tang Long shook his head. “Master’s body will be placed here for the time being. When Thunder Angel is repaired, we need to send it back to Beta Planet.”

“En, since you have plans for it, that’s the best.” Lan Ruoxi smiled. “If you need our help, feel free to let us know.”

“Don’t worry. I will.” Tang Long bowed. “Thank you both for your concern.”

“It’s what we should do.”

When everything was settled, Hong Dali wore the space watch—this thing was quite simple. Once he wore it, the space watch connected to his brain. Whatever he wanted to take, he just had to think about it.

Everything was done. Invincible East’s body returned to the underground of the Thunder Angel’s core. Everyone joked and laughed for a while. The Bureau Chief then smiled and said, “Dali ah, you rascal. Your luck is forever so good. Even I am envious of the inheritance you got.” As he said that his expression suddenly turned solemn. “Alright. Everyone, let’s settle proper business first. Teacher Wang is preparing to try and control Mr. Invincible East’s Venerable Mecha.”

The Venerable Mecha was actually given to Hong Dali. But this kid had no interest in fighting and killing. Hence, Wang Daoming was in charge of controlling it.

It was a big thing to control the Venerable Mecha. That was a mecha that won the East Galaxy Mecha Competition thirty-six consecutive times. How impressive would it be to be able to drive it out!

“Young Master Dali, I’ll go try it now.” Wang Daoming took a deep breath. “Hope everything goes smoothly.”

“Hehe, Geezer Wang will have no problem for sure.” Hong Dali laughed. “Go on!”

Tang Long led the way. It was no wonder he said nobody would ever be able to find the Venerable Mecha without him. He opened all the doors along the way. Without him, indeed no one would be able to find it.

Soon, they arrived in a small warehouse-like space. The black shell of Venerable Mecha was placed here.

The armor of the Venerable Mecha was red and black. It was about 22 meters high and looked very fierce. There were two wings-like pushers on the back. The shape was similar to little Bai Hechou when he was in battle form. The Invincible East had left some words on the wall. It clearly stated that controlling the Venerable Mecha required someone with high abilities. They all waited to see if Wang Daoming was able to control it.

Tang Long introduced. “Venerable Mecha, built with the latest DG self-repairing cell metal of the Galaxy Alliance, has the ability to repair itself. The energy engine is the most advanced High-Energy Electronic Collision Engine. Its overall performance is very strong and is a top-notch mecha in the Galaxy.”

“En, this is good, this is good. Just its looks are good!” Hong Dali nodded, satisfied.

Soon, Wang Daoming entered the Venerable Mecha’s body.

Everyone held their breaths.

No one could tell if this Venerable Mecha could be controlled—Geezer Wang had no experience controlling a mecha…

But, Hong Dali’s luck was good, indeed.

Once Geezer Wang went in, the Venerable Mecha started moving. His voice could be heard. “Young Master Dali, this is not bad. I can control it very easily. It’s a pity, I have yet to master most of Grandmaster’s skills. I’ll need to train for a while.”

“Aye? You can’t show the skills?” Hong Dali tilted his head and asked curiously, “What kind of moves are they? Tell us about it?”

“There are a few moves that Grandmaster recorded in this mecha.” Wang Daoming read them out one by one. “The first move is called Dark Finger. It’s a shooting weapon. I can use it. The second move is Galaxy Overlord Shadow Bomb. I could try to use this. The third move is Drunken Dance, Reappearing in the Pugilistic World. The fourth is The Returning Smile of the Mountain, and the fifth is called Earth Shattering and Sky Shocking Fist. Simply put, I am unable to use these three moves with my current strength.”

Even Wang Daoming couldn’t use them!

Hong Dali and the others sucked in a cold breath together.

It was the number one mecha in the East Galaxy, indeed. Its moves were powerful. Even a master like Wang Daoming could not use the last three moves. The power of this Venerable Mecha was obvious—it was a mecha born to fight!
