DALOA CH37
While the Central Military Academy’s spaceship was still en route, the Royal Academy in the Imperial Capital was already in a frenzy of discussion about Li Xiao.
The students at the Royal Academy are almost exclusively from noble and high-noble families. It is the school Song Jin originally attended, and the entire staff and student body are well aware of Song Jin’s status, though open discussion of it is prohibited.
Song Jin’s sudden marriage during an exam a while back was like a thunderclap on a clear day, and everyone is still in shock that it was real. Now, his partner is actually coming to the Imperial Capital.
The Royal Academy’s online forum launched a trending topic: #FriendsArriveFromAfarMustBePunishedNoMatterHowFar, and in less than a day, the discussion count broke one million. Everyone was eager to let Li Xiao experience the “hospitality” of the people of the Imperial Capital.
On the spaceship, Qian Can browsed the forum and chuckled, “The people of the Capital are gearing up to give Boss Li a ‘warm welcome’.”
Jiang Hao and Da Bei leaned in to look. “Why?” Jiang Hao asked.
Da Bei added, “What did my brother do to offend them? Why are they targeting him?”
Qian Can snickered, “It’s hard to say—is it that he didn’t offend them, or that he offended all of them already? It’s a tough call.”
Seeing Jiang Hao and Da Bei were still confused, Qin Le explained while working, “Boss has many admirers in the Capital. If they lined up, they could circle the Imperial Capital Planet several times over.”
Jiang Hao/Da Bei: “…”
Qian Can looked at Li Xiao, “Boss, aren’t you worried?”
Li Xiao sat by the window, checking messages sent by Jiang Chi. Ever since his identity was discovered by Song Jin, he stopped bothering to hide it. “It’s not a big problem.”
Qian Can was curious, “How do you plan to handle it?”
Li Xiao replied in a flat tone, “Cry, cause a scene, and hang myself at their front door.”
Qian Can: “…” Don’t say that, you might actually do it.
That afternoon, the Central Military Academy’s spaceship landed at External Platform 3 of the Royal Academy. Li Xiao, Song Jin, and the others followed their instructor to their temporary lodgings. They would stay at the Royal Academy for one night, waiting for the participants from other schools to arrive before heading to the competition venue together.
As they entered the lobby, several academy leaders approached. Walking in the center was an Omega in the uniform of a Major General—very young, looking under thirty.
Li Xiao was observing the Royal Academy’s infrastructure when a sharp cry suddenly erupted in the crowd, and a group of Omegas rushed out like missiles.
Liu Cheng and a few others squeezed past, saluting the Omega Major General: “Major General Rong, greetings!”
Rong? Li Xiao looked over. When he saw the person clearly, some long-buried memories were awakened. In his previous life, he had seen this person. At the time, the man had disguised himself as a member of the diplomatic corps visiting Danse; he hadn’t realized his true identity was that of a general.
Seeing Li Xiao staring at Rong Mian and unable to move his eyes away, Song Jin stepped in front of him: “Suck your drool back in.”
Li Xiao: “…”
“Who is he?” Li Xiao asked nonchalantly.
“Your intelligence network didn’t give you feedback in time?” Song Jin glanced at Da Bei, implying something.
Qian Can craned his neck, excitedly explaining, “That’s Major General Rong Mian, the younger brother of Prince Rong, and the only Omega Legion commander in Shengya!”
“Prince Rong… Rong Shi?” Li Xiao asked.
Hearing Li Xiao address him by name, Song Jin gave him a sideways glance: “Don’t tell me you know him.”
Li Xiao: “I don’t know him.”
In his previous life, Rong Shi had been injured and in a coma, so he never had the chance to meet him. However, he knew about that brat Song Yu building a time machine for this person, and it was precisely because of that that he had the chance to return here.
The crowd followed the guidance of the robots to head out, and Li Xiao’s group slowed their pace, walking at the back. Once Rong Mian was clear of people, Song Jin brought Li Xiao over to greet him: “Brother Mian.”
Rong Mian waved at them: “Xiao Jin, have you grown taller again?”
“I’m still in my growth phase, after all.” Song Jin hugged him, “Why did they send you to do this kind of work again?”
“Just happened to be free.” Rong Mian didn’t explain further, his gaze sweeping over the silver ring on Li Xiao’s left ear, and the next moment, his eyes met Li Xiao’s. “Do you still recognize me?”
Li Xiao: “Did you break up with that delicate little brat?”
Song Jin: “…”
Qian Can and the others: “…”
Rong Mian chuckled: “No, we got married.”
Li Xiao expressed some regret: “It seems we are destined not to have a connection—”
Before he could finish, Li Xiao was gripped from behind by Song Jin. Song Jin led him away: “He forgot to take his medicine today. See you later.”
Rong Mian waved at Li Xiao with a smile: “The Capital hasn’t been peaceful lately, please be careful.”
Li Xiao: “…” Threatening me the moment we meet—is this your way of treating guests?
The Vice Principal of the Royal Academy asked Rong Mian suspiciously: “Do you know that exchange student?” Honestly, that student’s aura was incredibly strong, and he was handsome, too; no wonder the Fourth Prince had taken a liking to him.
Rong Mian responded vaguely: “Xiao Jin introduced us before.”
Once everyone left, the adjutant Sang Ning whispered to Rong Mian: “I definitely sensed several abnormal auras.”
“Hmm.” The friendly smile vanished from Rong Mian’s face: “Proceed with the deployment according to the plan.”
Sang Ning: “Yes.”
Walking out of the lobby, everyone’s terminals received a greeting from the Royal Academy, including dormitory numbers and tips on food, clothing, and transportation.
On the way to the dorms, Qin Le scanned the surroundings, where Royal Academy students were standing around watching them: “We look like monkeys performing outside a cage.”
Jiang Hao: “I just feel like their killing intent is very heavy.”
Qin Le glanced at Li Xiao behind him: “That’s not your imagination.”
Song Jin was long accustomed to such scenes, but he was somewhat surprised by the “old friend” dynamic between Li Xiao and Rong Mian. Is Li Xiao really the Second Prince of Danse? But the Danse royal family holds the bloodline of the Beique tribe—is it just a coincidence? The Beique people are few in number and isolated; the odds of successfully infiltrating the Danse royal family and climbing into the King’s bed to give birth to a child must be astronomically low.
Based on the fact that Li Xiao is not controlled by the ‘Modified Humans,’ one could reasonably suspect that the Danse royal family is involved. But why would those Modified Humans want to kill Li Xiao?
Da Bei walked to Li Xiao’s side and whispered: “Brother, do you know that Omega General?”
Li Xiao: “I don’t.”
Da Bei was puzzled: “Then why were you acting like you were so close to him just now?”
Li Xiao spouted nonsense with a straight face: “He looked pretty, I was testing if I could flirt with him.”
Da Bei: “…” He’s a generation older than you; are you serious?
“So you like that type.” Song Jin leaned on Li Xiao’s shoulder, tilting his head closer: “Actually, I like him too.”
Li Xiao: “Good taste.”
Song Jin lowered his voice, acting very serious: “How about we break up his marriage and split him half-and-half?”
Li Xiao: “I think that’ll work.”
Song Jin: “Then I’ll be responsible for dating his husband, and you can be responsible for bagging him.”
Li Xiao: “No time like the present, how about tonight?”
Song Jin reached out his hand: “Let’s go find a sack at the recycling center later.”
Li Xiao high-fived him: “It’s a deal.”
Qin Le and the others: “…” Someone, send them to take their medication!
The temporary lodgings were two-person rooms, relatively crude. Song Jin and Li Xiao were assigned to the same room. Li Xiao picked a bed at random and put his backpack at the end of the bed, only to be pressed by Song Jin’s shoulders, forced to turn around.
“What?”
Song Jin stared at him deeply: “Don’t you have anything to say to me?”
Li Xiao asked back blandly: “About the details of the kidnapping tonight?”
Hearing footsteps nearby, Li Xiao messed up Song Jin’s hair before he could speak. “Even if we succeed, you’re still my most beloved treasure.”
Song Jin: “…”
Da Bei, who had just approached to knock on the door: “…” The world of adults is so complicated.
At 6:00 PM, the group went to the restaurant to eat. Jiang Hao didn’t see Qian Can and thought he’d fallen behind. Qin Le explained: “Qian San went to find his fox friends, don’t worry about him.”
Once Li Xiao arrived, everyone in the restaurant stared at him. Li Xiao’s height and looks were striking even in the Royal Academy, which was full of beauties. Black hair, silver earring, an untainted air of abstinence—he captured the hearts of a crowd of Omegas, instantly turning them from love rivals to fans of his looks.
“What a disgrace!” Chen Xi, seeing his table of companions staring blankly, slammed the table and marched over to block Li Xiao: “Hello, I’m Chen Xi.”
Li Xiao paused, looking down at the Omega boy who only reached his chin. The other had a pair of phoenix eyes with a mole at the outer corner—a face easy to remember. Chen Xi was used to being stared at and wasn’t the least bit embarrassed; he was even feeling smug for attracting Song Jin’s attention. “I hear your combat skills are very strong. I’d like to ask you for a few pointers.”
Here it comes. Qin Le and the others thought, they really couldn’t hold back. Having a childhood crush silently get married to someone else—nobody could endure that.
In front of everyone, Li Xiao put his arm around Song Jin’s waist and whispered in Danse: “Babe, what did he say? Translate for me.”
Qin Le and the others: “…” You really know how to pull hate.
Everyone else: “…”! Take your hand off him and let me do it!
Song Jin, who originally intended to watch the show: “…” Not this again. Seeing the intimate action, Chen Xi’s face couldn’t hold, his temper flared, and he repeated it in Danse.
Song Jin spread his hands: “No need to translate.”
Li Xiao: “…” Unable to pretend he didn’t understand, Li Xiao smiled calmly at Chen Xi: “I heard that Omegas in Shengya are very good at taking care of Alphas, is that true?”
One smile completely broke Chen Xi’s defense. He stammered: “O-of course.”
Li Xiao: “Then you won’t hit me, right?”
Chen Xi: “…”
All the Omegas: “…” Who could withstand such a well-behaved Alpha?!
Seeing Chen Xi staring dumbly, Song Jin sighed to himself: How disappointing. The combat capability was so weak, he’d been looking forward to this for ages. He shook off Li Xiao’s hand and walked away without looking back.
In the distance, Zhao Cheng sat eating with friends from the Royal Academy. Seeing this, Bai Yi at the same table slapped his thigh: “What a waste! In two sentences, he was so charmed he lost his soul.” Others around them mocked, “I thought he was something special, just a glib pretty boy.” “Song Jin must be blinded, how could he look at him?” “Let’s go give this soft-legged shrimp a piece of our minds after dinner, so Song Jin can wake up.”
After Bai Yi and the others went on for a while, seeing Zhao Cheng chewing on a pickle and just giggling awkwardly, they tapped him: “What’s up with you? Poisoned? Don’t scare me.”
Zhao Cheng: “Seeing you all, I finally realized how stupid I was at the time.”
Bai Yi and the others were puzzled: “What do you mean?”
Zhao Cheng drank some hot soup and sighed lightly: “Take a brother’s advice: don’t go. You’ll lose very ugly.”
Bai Yi didn’t believe it. Who among them wasn’t stronger than Li Xiao? With fists the size of sandbags, every punch would be a knockout—wouldn’t it be like bullying a novice?
Zhao Cheng: “I competed with him. He reached the finish line while I was still halfway there. You guys aren’t even as good as me—what are you competing with?”
Bai Yi and the others: “…WTF?!”
Sensing the gazes around him getting more intense, Song Jin looked coldly at the culprit opposite him: “Would it kill you to attract fewer crazy bees and butterflies?”
Li Xiao: “Isn’t it all because of you that they’re taking their anger out on me?”
Song Jin: “Are you dissatisfied?”
“A little.” Li Xiao picked up a shrimp and put it on Song Jin’s plate, “Peel the shrimp for me.”
Song Jin was so annoyed he laughed. Under Li Xiao’s expectant gaze, he peeled the shrimp and shoved it into his own mouth: “Give me another one.”
Li Xiao: “…”
Qin Le and the others: “…” Is this meal really worth eating?
After dinner, Song Jin took Li Xiao around the campus, receiving countless challenges, either “wait for me tonight” or “wait for the arena tomorrow.”
Jiang Hao indicated that he could fight on his behalf and let the crowd gathering around them follow him.
Qin Le looked at the hundred-plus people: “You can handle it alone?”
Jiang Hao: “A few people like this is fine.”
When the others heard this, they were enraged and yelled that they wanted to open the venue in the training hall right now.
Li Xiao stopped Jiang Hao: “These are all pampered young masters, go easy on them.”
Jiang Hao: “I know, I’ll make sure they can’t even tell they were hit.”
Everyone: “…” Damn Danse people!
Qin Le: “…” You really know how to pour oil on the fire.
Da Bei wanted to follow Li Xiao, but was dragged to the training hall by Jiang Hao. Jiang Hao said sincerely: “Instead of being a lightbulb following them, come help me hold the fort; the face of Danse cannot be lost.”
Da Bei: “…You make it very hard for me to refuse.”
Jiang Hao grabbed his collar and walked away: “Let’s go.”
Da Bei: “…” I really feel like I’ve been manipulated.
By the time it was completely dark, Song Jin and Li Xiao returned to the living area. After shaking off everyone, they went to the underground parking lot. Among the countless luxury cars, Song Jin’s car was still outstandingly flashy. Li Xiao sat in the passenger seat: “Let’s go see Song Yu first.”
Song Jin: “He has a cocktail party tonight; I’ll take you to see someone else.”
Li Xiao: “Song Yang?”
Song Jin hit the gas and drove out: “You really do know him.”
Li Xiao: “He’s a national treasure-level expert of Shengya, aren’t you afraid I’ll hurt him?”
Song Jin looked ahead while resting his hand on the steering wheel: “It’s hard to hurt him unless you strap a few nuclear bombs on your body.”
Li Xiao: “…”
Just after flying out of the campus, 07’s voice sounded in Song Jin’s mind: 【Master, suspected tracking vehicles detected!】
The onboard AI system popped up two windows, one for each side behind the car. Two rented hover-cars were following them at a distance. Song Jin took a glance and abruptly lowered the altitude. The hover-car drew an arc in the night sky and darted into the forest of high-rise buildings.
As he accelerated, the two cars behind him accelerated too. Song Jin controlled the car flexibly, weaving back and forth through the navigation lanes.
Li Xiao glanced at the speedometer. It was more than twice the speed limit for the city; it was driven with the intensity of a mecha. If they were the slightest bit distracted, they would crash into buildings or other vehicles and be smashed to pieces. Pedestrians on the commercial street only heard the roar of an intense engine as it whizzed past; looking up, there was only a gust of wind.
07: 【Safe distance established!】
Song Jin increased altitude and continued to accelerate. Soon, he drove into a mountainous area in the northern part of the Shengwu District. This district is reserved exclusively for nobles and high-ranking officials; ordinary people can only obtain land here after rising to the rank of Major General.
The car landed at the foot of the mountain, and the mountain side automatically opened, revealing a downward-sloping lane. The two got out, and the car automatically drove into the underground garage under AI guidance.
Song Jin stood in front of a metal door wrapped in flower vines. His terminal scanned the induction area, and the metal door slowly opened, revealing a winding mountain path. It was clear it had been meticulously cared for, as even the orchids casually planted on the side of the road were incredibly valuable.
A dark shadow suddenly darted out from the grass. Li Xiao subconsciously pulled Song Jin towards him, thinking it was a large rat, but to his surprise, Song Jin reached out and scooped it up—it was a rabbit.
Li Xiao’s expression was subtle: “…He keeps this kind of thing?”
Song Jin shoved the rabbit into his arms and kept walking: “His father-in-law keeps it. There’s plenty of grass in the mountains, enough to eat.”
Li Xiao: “…”
Passing through the ridiculously large courtyard, they finally saw the door to the main house. A butler robot stood at the door and said to them: “The Master is in the workshop, please follow this way.”
The two followed into an elevator, which stopped after about a minute. Outside the door was a spacious corridor covered in white metal on all sides. Li Xiao and Song Jin stepped out of the elevator, but the butler robot didn’t follow them out.
“I haven’t been here either.” Song Jin looked around and casually chose the left tunnel.
Li Xiao pulled him back: “This way is blocked.”
Song Jin: “How do you know?”
Li Xiao took off a button and flicked it out. Just as the button was about to cross the tunnel, a block of white metal suddenly appeared to block it. Song Jin had 07 activate the routine mode, and quickly understood what was going on. There was no tunnel on the left at all; the image he saw was simulated by special metal, just like how 07 can simulate environments to achieve invisibility.
Following the right tunnel for a few steps, noticing something in his peripheral vision, Li Xiao looked up and saw a metal ball aiming a slingshot at him. Li Xiao pushed Song Jin away, and a miniature sound-blast grenade flew past them, bouncing around after hitting the wall, emitting a weird, shrill laugh.
More and more metal balls appeared. Dozens of sound-blast grenades collided and radiated within the tunnel, covering almost all paths ahead. The surround-sound vibration and the high-and-low laughter could be said to be Li Xiao’s exact weakness.
While dodging, Song Jin noticed Li Xiao frowning, cold sweat dripping from his temples: “You okay?”
Li Xiao observed the front and, during a gap in evasion, grabbed two flying sound-blast grenades and threw them at the metal balls. “Of course I am.”
The metal balls dodged easily, but the grenades hitting the walls triggered a chain reaction, quickly changing the flight paths of dozens of grenades, and the metal balls were knocked back repeatedly. The lead metal ball, seeing the situation wasn’t right, extended a matchstick-thin arm from its casing to signal the little brothers behind to retreat, but before it could withdraw, it was hit by two grenades, its head rattling.
“Ouch, ouch, ouch… I surrender! You guys go to the next level, annoying!”
Li Xiao juggled the grenades in his hands: “Turn off the sound of the grenades.”
Afraid that he might throw them, the metal ball covered its face and retreated, and the laughter stopped the next moment.
With his ears ringing, Li Xiao threw the grenades and kept walking.
Rounding a corner, crisscrossing laser beams appeared, with varying shapes and depths, and it looked like there was more than one type. Two rows of small metal balls were attached to the top of the tunnel, about a hundred of them, holding colorful water guns. It looked like if they touched the lines, they would be sprayed with water.
Just as Li Xiao prepared to lead Song Jin through, a metal ball with two matchstick arms hanging down slowly descended, emitting a calm boy’s voice: “Only one can pass at a time.” “07 is disabled.”
As soon as the voice dropped, the interface in front of Song Jin instantly disappeared, and the lasers he saw earlier also vanished. 07: 【Master, go for it!】
Song Jin: “…” Song Jin was very dissatisfied: “Are you playing with me or him?”
Metal ball: “Both.”
Song Jin: “…”
Li Xiao tilted his head to look at him: “Remember it?”
Song Jin: “Needless to say?”
Metal ball: “All laser lines have been reset.”
Song Jin: “…” I should have brought a few nuclear bombs today.
Li Xiao looked at the changes in the lasers and said to Song Jin: “I’ll go first, remember my footprints.”
Li Xiao flipped and jumped easily for five or six meters, just about to cross a diagonal line, when an alarm suddenly triggered, and red water mist sprayed down from above. Song Jin’s eyes flashed; wherever the red water mist passed, all the laser lines became visible. “You touched a laser with your left fingertip!”
Li Xiao moved forward quickly, recalling the position just now; there were clearly no lasers there. Could there be some lines here that even he couldn’t see? Triggering alarms one after another, Li Xiao was even more convinced of this. To avoid having his hair sprayed with colors, he could only speed up.
After Li Xiao walked a hundred meters, Song Jin was allowed to follow. Because Li Xiao had been sprayed, it made him remember the position of the lines even more clearly. Crossing the tunnel under these conditions was effortless for him, but the red water mist had chili pepper added to it, making him sneeze repeatedly and causing him to stumble several times.
Song Jin: “I’m going to be played to death—ah-choo!”
Li Xiao touched an invisible line again, and suddenly entire rows of fireworks burst from the top of the tunnel, scattering countless sequins. The sequins reflected light, creating a huge obstacle for Li Xiao to discern the lines.
After running through this nearly thousand-meter laser tunnel, Li Xiao and Song Jin brushed a pile of sequins off their bodies.
“There’s still a piece stuck to your forehead.” Li Xiao reached out to take it off for Song Jin.
“Your hair isn’t clean either.” Song Jin pressed Li Xiao’s head and messed it up thoroughly, settling all previous scores at once.
Li Xiao: “Retaliating again?”
Song Jin: “This is love.”
Li Xiao: “…”
The metal ball flew over: “Completed within the time limit, pass successfully.”
Song Jin: “No reward?”
The metal ball’s stomach suddenly opened, throwing out two ice cream cones, then walked away coldly. Anyone with a slightly slower reaction time wouldn’t have been able to catch them.
The two ate ice cream cones and walked forward for a few minutes, when several phantoms appeared around a corner. Li Xiao took Song Jin to dodge. The phantoms moved extremely fast, constantly rushing back and forth to collide with them. The two had no weapons, and the only 07 was disabled.
Song Jin and Li Xiao exchanged a look, suddenly running towards each other, twisting and dodging at the moment they were about to collide. The next moment, the phantoms following them collided with a bang.
Thinking it was solved, the phantoms all merged together, quickly twisting with the clatter of metal, and turned into a two-meter-tall combat robot. The robot held a gun, and a virtual screen popped up above its head. 【Eliminated if hit.】
Between several dodges, many red marks were left on the metal walls and floor. Li Xiao retreated while dodging, noticing Song Jin circling behind, kicking at the robot’s gun barrel, and sweeping towards the other’s mechanical ankle when the robot punched.
Almost simultaneously, Song Jin ran to a height of five meters on the wall, using the force to flip, and kicked the robot’s head hard. Attacked from above and below simultaneously, the robot instantly collapsed and smashed to the ground.
Accompanied by a loud crash, Song Jin landed steadily, licking the ice cream that had slid into his palm. “That was overboard, this time it can’t be coaxed with just an ice cream cone.”
Li Xiao pulled his gaze away from his movements and continued walking forward. “Maybe we can eat until dawn.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a metal ball flew over and threw out two more ice cream cones. “Passed the test.”
Song Jin: “…Crow’s mouth.”
After passing eight stages, Song Jin ate until he was burping, and a metal door dozens of meters high finally appeared at the end of the tunnel. The door opened slowly, and the space inside was so big that one couldn’t see the edge at a glance. A small car came and stopped in front of them. “Please get in the car, I will take you to see the Master.”
The two sat in the car, weaving through all kinds of spare parts, from screws to mecha skeletons nearly a hundred meters high. Passing through a giant archway, an silver-blue heavy mecha appeared before them. The mecha was suspended by cranes of various models, with its joints disconnected, only nerve lines connected.
A blonde Alpha in his thirties sat on the left palm of the mecha, with a lollipop in his mouth, his black work clothes cuffs rolled up uninhibitedly, adjusting the nerve lines of the arm. Hearing the movement, the Alpha looked over, just in time to meet Li Xiao’s eyes.
“So slow?”
Li Xiao got off the car and looked up at Song Yang in mid-air: “I’ve already given you face by not turning back halfway.”
Song Yang: “I’ve also given you face by not doing anything to you even after you laid a hand on my youngest.”
Song Jin wrapped his arms around Li Xiao’s shoulders from behind, smiling triumphantly at Song Yang: “Wrong, I was the one who laid a hand on him first.”
Song Yang: “…”
Brat, there are so many young and beautiful ones, why pick an old oil-slick? Can you even hold him down?
A moment later, Song Yang came down from above and waved at the flying metal ball: “Integrate the previous test data and measure the visible spectrum of his left and right eyes again.”
Metal ball: “Received!”
The metal ball’s casing opened, revealing a probe. Li Xiao reached out to cover it and looked at Song Yang: “Let’s talk business first.”
A robot flew over, its open belly full of various ice cream cones. Song Yang casually took a strawberry one, leaning against the stacked metal parts: “This is my business; go to the palace for other matters, that’s not my concern.”
Li Xiao: “You certainly know how to wash your hands of it.”
Song Yang smiled sweetly: “I have a reliable brother, you don’t.”
Li Xiao: “…”
Song Yang: “I also have a wife who peels shrimp for me, you don’t either.”
Li Xiao: “…”
Song Yang shook his head and sighed: “Truly carefree, nothing to worry about.”
Li Xiao: “…”
Li Xiao’s gaze swept over the metal ball entering from outside the archway, and he said blandly: “I have rare EPTL930 deformable metal, you don’t.”
Song Yang’s smile stiffened: “…”
Li Xiao: “I also have the full series of EPTR100-130 rare metals, you don’t either.”
Song Yang: “…”
Li Xiao sighed lightly: “There’s too much, I can’t finish using it at all, so annoying.”
Song Yang: “…”
Song Jin’s gaze shifted back and forth between them. So that’s how it is. The metals of these models Li Xiao mentioned, Song Jin had heard Brother Yang and his brother mention them before; these are core materials for making battle armor, but production in Shengya is extremely rare, and the price has always been high. In recent years, mecha technology has become increasingly mature, but because of material problems, it has never been popularized. And these deadly materials are actually controlled by Li Xiao. No wonder Brother Yang said he had plenty of money.
Song Yang finished the ice cream cone and asked straightforwardly: “Say it, how much will you offer?”
Li Xiao: “That depends on what conditions you can offer here.”
Song Yang: “I’ve given you the youngest, what more do you want?”
Song Jin: “Why pull me into this?”
Song Yang: “If you don’t knock him for a sum of money now, you’ll only be slapping your thighs in regret later.”
Song Jin: “…”
