10 million academic credits?!
Ye Mu and the rest ended up stunned at Lu Ze’s and Lin Ling’s offer.
Other than very powerful prodigies like Margaret, ordinary elite class students probably couldn’t even earn 10 million academic credits in four years. Yet, Lu Ze and Lin Ling said they were going to give them 10 million academic credits just like that!?
They might have phrased it as “lending”, but it was actually not different from giving After some silence, Ye Mu grinned. “Then, I won’t be too polite.”
Xuan Yuqi nodded and looked deeply at Lu Ze and Lin Ling. “In that case, me too.”
Everyone else chose to accept their goodwill. They just needed to remember this huge favor.
After all, 10 million academic credits were too important to them. Of course, such an amount wasn’t substantial to Lu Ze and Lin Ling. Their rewards might not have been issued at this moment yet, but surely, they wouldn’t be negligible. Furthermore, after they become young dukes, they would also receive a monthly salary.
The group chatted for a while until dark before returning to their dorms.
Lu Ze took a shower and went back to his room. He looked outside. A light wind blew past and the bamboo forest made shuffling sounds. There might be fish jumping out of the lake from afar too. The night seemed pleasant and tranquil.
Lu Ze couldn’t help but indulge in relaxation.
After a while, Lu Ze broke out of the trance. He then sat up and began cultivating.
Early the next morning, Lu Ze opened his eyes and stood up. Today, he was going back to Earth! He felt very excited.
He went downstairs and met up with Lin Ling before proceeding to Nangong Jing’s house. Upon reaching the house, Qiuyue Hesha and Yingying were already there.
Qiuyue Hesha had a smile and seemed to be in a good mood today. Meanwhile, Yingying still watched cartoons expressionlessly on the couch.
Seeing Lu Ze and Lin Ling, Nangong Jing grinned. “You’re here. We’ll head off once we have breakfast!”
Then, she looked at Lin Ling. Her intentions were all too clear. In return, Lin Ling rubbed her head and walked to the kitchen.
After breakfast, the group rode the Golden Whirl and left planet Venus. In the living room, Lu Ze looked outside the window and asked, “I’ve never been to Earth. How is it like there?”
Nangong Jing scratched her head and answered, “Earth is the mother planet of the human race and also the political center of the Federation. It’s a good tourist place?”
Qiuyue Hesha provided, “If we’re going to talk about tourist spots, then Earth has quite a lot of ancient ruins. For example, the Great Wall, pyramids, and so forth…”
The Great Wall…
Lu Ze’s eyes could not help but flicker. He felt a bit nostalgic. Then, he said, “Then, let’s go visit when we get there.”
Lin Ling was also interested. “Yes, let’s go.”
At this moment, Lu Ze suddenly recalled something, “By the way, does Earth still have those traditional ancient snacks?”
Without a doubt, the food of the intergalactic era changed a lot from traditional foods.
Due to the question, Nangong Jing and Qiuyue Hesha felt stunned. They then nodded in response.
Nangong Jing’s eyes were filled with eagerness as well. “Earth is indeed a haven for food… We can go try.”
Due to Lu Ze’s long term influence, Nangong Jing and Qiuyue Hesha were very interested in food. They had been to Earth a few times, but they never had thought of trying the snacks.
Yingying’s eyes widened.
Lu Ze spoke again. “By the way, what should we do when we’re appointed as young dukes?”
Lin Ling also looked curiously at Nangong Jing and Qiuyue Hesha. It was their first time, and they were quite nervous.
Nangong Jing smiled. “Tomorrow at 9 o’clock in the morning, you will be appointed before the Palace of Heroes.”
“You don’t need to do anything. The ceremony will be presided by Saint Lin Dong before the deceased Federal Heroes and Federal Senators as witnesses.”
On the side, Qiuyue Hesha grinned. “Even we can’t enter the Palace of Heroes without a special permit. We won’t be there when you are appointed as young dukes, but the live stream is throughout the entire Federation. There won’t be a lack of audience.”
Lu Ze and Lin Ling nodded. They felt assured now.
As for palace heroes, Lu Ze knew about it a little.
In the past two thousand years, all those people who had reached the planetary state and above, particularly those who contributed greatly to the Federation, would have their own sculpture and tablet at the Palace of Heroes after they died.
If it was a very huge contribution, you can still leave your legacy there even if you were below the planetary state.
Even the eight dead saints had their sculptures erected there.
Wait!
Elder Lin wasn’t dead.
Was his sculpture in there then?
He wondered how elder Lin would feel if his sculpture was there, even though he was still alive.
Five hours later, the Golden Whirl left the warp dimension.
Currently, they were before a solar system that was not too vast. In the middle was a medium-size star with eight planets orbiting around it. There were too many of these solar systems in the universe, but this one was special to the human race. It was the birthplace of the human race after all.
The Solar System…
He was back.
He saw the sun once again.
The check-in was rather rigorous outside the system. Every period of distance, there would be a security station checking the ships. It was even stricter than the Gracious System during the riot incident.
Lu Ze watched as the planets flew past himNeptune, Uranus, Saturn, Jupiter…
Due to the advancement of technology, there were quite some artificial buildings on these planets. Some were made to be suitable for living.
Soon, a blue planet entered Lu Ze’s eyes.
Lu Ze smiled. He returned to Earth.
Nangong Jing suddenly said, “Golden Whirl can’t enter Earth directly. We need to stop on the moon and enter it through the Earth-Moon rail after a careful inspection.
The Golden Whirl was near the moon. Several facilities could be observed on the moon. All sorts of planes landed and flew off—it was quite prosperous. Qiuyue Hesha smiled. “There are many powerful people here.”
Lu Ze nodded. This was the political center after all. It was all too common for bosses to be here.
Soon, the Golden Whirl stopped at a space station. Nangong Jing smiled. “Okay, let’s get off.”
Qiuyue Hesha carried Yingying, and everyone alighted from the ship.
