“Damn it.” The Bureau Chief directly took out his phone. “Weiguo, where are you now?”
Hong Weiguo: “Bureau Chief, why did you suddenly think of calling me? I am still at Tianhai, the Chamber of Commerce is currently at the finishing stage. I have been promoted to a magnate now. Is there something you need from me?”
“Yes.” The Bureau Chief anxiously said, “Immediately call home and ask your house’s attendants to make sure that no books of any kind are allowed to leave the Hongwu Villa!”
“Huh?” Hong Weiguo asked in surprise, “Is there a problem with the books in my house?”
“Yes, there’s a big problem!” The Bureau Chief said, “Just do as I say. Nothing is allowed to bring out of the villa, or there will be a big problem!”
“Oh, okay.” Hong Weiguo didn’t suspect anything, because he didn’t do anything that needed to be afraid of people checking. Also, the Bureau Chief wouldn’t harm him. “Rouxi isn’t home anyway, I shall instruct the attendants now.”
After making the call and sealing up Hongwu Villa, the Bureau Chief let out a breath and said, “This is really scary…”
Finally settling this, everyone could rest their hearts.
They finally understood that this fellow Hong Dali was really a person who wouldn’t have to worry about anything, he had the life of being a second-generation rich! He hadn’t even left the planet, but look at his assets: Two mechas made from Immium alloy, the interstellar fortress Thunder Angel, the descendant of the number one warrior in East Milky Way, another Venerable Mecha in front of them, and a Demon Fantasy Record worth hundreds of millions of Galaxy Dollars. Even the Dali Beans that were worth 10,000 Galaxy Dollars each were eaten by him as snacks…
Even God’s own son couldn’t be better than him, right?
How were other people supposed to live!?
“Why are all of you looking at me like this.” Hong Dali touched his nose and said, “There aren’t any flowers growing on my face…”
“You didn’t grow flowers.” Deca muttered, “What you grow is money!”
Of course, regardless of what was growing on Hong Dali’s face, the issue regarding Invincible East could be put aside for now. Everyone returned their focus back to the core.
“Deca, how do we open this core?” The Bureau Chief looked at Li Nianwei and Zhang Yi—both of them had one of the Five Element Wheel, plus the ones with Hong Dali, Tang Muxin, and Li Nianwei, the Five Element Wheel was complete.
“Honestly speaking, I am too not sure.” Deca was after all only the son of the captain of a Starfleet. Something as high level as the Five Element Wheel wasn’t something that he could know about. “We can only try whatever we have, such as placing the five items of the Five Element Wheel or something like that.”
“Alright.” Hong Dali instantly stood up and said, “Then let’s see if this will work.”
He led the way while the rest followed behind. After they stood in front of the core, Hong Dali removed the bracelet from his wrist and muttered, “I hope there won’t be mosquitoes in the Universe, the mosquito repelling effect of this bracelet is still quite good…”
“Why would there be so many mosquitoes.” Tang Muxin took out the Clear Water Ring. “Let’s try it first.”
Very quickly, Hong Dali’s Jade Wood Bracelet, Tang Muxin’s Clear Water Ring, Li Nianwei’s Dark Gold Ear Ring, Li Nianwei’s Thick Soil Ring, plus Zhang Yi’s Hell Fire Pearl, the five items of the Five Element Wheel were all placed together.
Amazingly, when these five items were placed together, they actually floated in the air and formed into a circle according to the sequence Metal, Water, Wood, Fire, Earth, then after Earth was Metal. Then, they slowly revolved around the circle.
Every time they revolved one round, some of the impurities inside would be removed from them and drop off. After they revolved for about 20 seconds or so, they had become five lumps of a pure element. Then, they revolved faster and faster. At the same time, the ground started to tremble. It was as if the entire mountain was having an earthquake, causing everyone present to be unable to stand stably—of course, Hong Dali was excluded…
The trembling lasted for an entire 10 plus seconds before it slowly subsided.
As for the core, the surface glowed brighter and brighter. In just a short while, the Five Element Wheel was revolving crazily, then a beam of light burst out from the center of the circle and landed on the core!
“BOMBBB—!!!”
After a series of deep bombing sounds, a door on the core finally opened at the spot directly in front of the Five Element Wheel!
It was a door about 30 meters tall and rectangular in shape. Everyone was full of expectation of what treasures could inside. After all, with Invincible East’s wealth, there should be some large treasures and even smaller treasures inside!
Following the passageway that opened up, they carefully walked in.
At the end of the passageway were another two doors. One was at the side, about 30 plus meters tall, that must probably be where the Venerable Mecha was parked.
Directly in front was a much smaller door, but when everyone looked at it, they were all dazed. “This… This is…” On the left-hand side of the door, on the wall that was made from Teddy alloy, there were actually quite a number of scratch marks! The longer scratch marks were about a meter or two long, while the shorter ones were about an inch or two long. The depth of the marks was an inch deep, it was extremely terrifying.
“God, there was actually a battle here. This…” Deca looked at this scene and instantly understood what happened. “This must be caused by the Zergs! Mr. Invincible East said that he encountered the Zergs and they destroyed the space oscillation engine, which means that some of them entered into this core to achieve that! In that case, doesn’t that mean that inside, there’s…”
Could it be that there were Zergs inside the bridge!?
Upon thinking of this, Deca instantly shuddered, and cold sweat instantly came out from his back and forehead.
This was the Zergs, the most brutal and savage race in the Universe. They didn’t have any sanity, all they knew was to slaughter other races!
“Ah, are there Zergs inside?” Hong Dali took in a deep breath and then looked at Levis. “Brother Levis, you are formidable, you must protect us later!”
“Young Master, don’t worry.” Now that Hong Dali’s halos were at the maximum level, Levis’ maximum strength had reached up to 1,400 or so. He was very confident that even if there were really Zergs inside, the Zergs would end up in tragedy, and become the objects to be researched in laboratories.
“Keep calm, keep calm.” Deca violently panted and then slowly raised his hand. “We have already reached this far, it would be a pity if we don’t go in now. Let’s risk it!”
Saying so, he pressed the button to open the door.
“Bomb!” A series of metallic sounds could be heard as the door to the bridge slowly opened!
The door opened and the light shone inside too.
Yet, when Deca went in, he gave an earth-shattering shout, “God! Quick, look at what I discovered!”
“What is it? You sound so serious…” After hearing Deca’s shout, everyone rushed inside.
Deca pointed at an almost dried-up body of a huge insect-like corpse and said in fright, “A Zerg, this is indeed the corpse of a Zerg!”
That was a corpse of a huge Zerg, about five meters tall. From its appearance, it was very similar to ground bugs that Hong Dali saw in the movie “Starship Troopers” in his previous life. Its jaw was a foot long, its black eyes the size of a football, its body covered by a dark green carapace. The Bureau Chief walked up and stabbed it with a blade that he always carried with him, but couldn’t pierce through at all. There wasn’t even a scratch left on the carapace.
“This is the Zerg race in the Universe?” The Bureau Chief turned around and asked Deca. “Indeed, this fellow looks very formidable!”
“Yes.” Deca’s expression was very solemn. “This is a type of Zerg with medium attack power, it’s called the Green-Eyed Metal Bug. Its shell is impenetrable by knives and swords, and even the main cannon of a starship can only kill just a few of them in one shot. It’s very scary. But I never thought that Mr. Invincible East could really kill one, and from the looks of it, he did it with his bare hands. This is really unbelievable.”
He said that it was unbelievable because, with his experience in the Universe, he naturally knew how hard it was to accomplish this.
This Green-Eyed Metal Bug’s body was impenetrable by normal weapons. If they used the main cannon of the starship, it was easy to burn it into ashes with a single blow. However, fighting with it in close combat in the core and actually managing to kill it was something quite hard to accomplish.
“Wooh, this one is good.” While Deca was extremely terrified of this creature, Zhang Yi looked at it with shining eyes. She pointed at the corpse and excitedly said, “Can I take it away? I sense that its genes will definitely be very useful to me…”
OK, they forgot about the Zerg Queen, Zhang Yi…
“Alright.” The Bureau Chief reluctantly nodded and said, “Remember, you must be careful, be extremely careful, don’t create anything troublesome. You must especially promise that you won’t connect to the brood when you are doing your research on it. If that happens, our Planet will be in big trouble.”
Actually, there was indeed quite a huge risk involved in doing research on this Zerg body. But after the Bureau Chief carefully thought for a while, he still decided to hand it over to Zhang Yi.
Whatever the case, this thing was more useful in Zhang Yi’s hands than elsewhere.
Anything in the Universe would involve some risk, maybe the moment this Zerg was exposed it had already connected to the brood. There wasn’t any use being afraid now, all they could do now was to try their best to make the full use of it. If they could create powerful star warriors through this Zerg body, maybe it would be a good thing instead.
“Ohehehe, thank you, Uncle Chief!” Zhang Yi excited rushed up and hugged the leg of the bug, her face full of happiness. “I wonder what kind of powerful genes that this bug will have, but I think that it will probably be stronger than the bugs on Earth…”
Wasn’t that stating the obvious? How could it not be powerful? This was something that the humans in the Universe feared. Look at how scared Deca was, he was almost plastered to the corner of the wall…
