After parting with Ren Ruofeng, Vigilante A had left his team of animal followers in pursuit of the injustice in the world.
Everyone who saw it was moved. ‘Does the word ‘rest’ even exist in Vigilante A’s dictionary?’
If Fang Ning understood their thoughts, he would have been ashamed and increased his productivity.
After the battle, he had been so relaxed and demotivated to fight, he slept in the System Cyber Cafe and attempt to understand the Dream-Cultivation Method…
Time passed in his sleep quickly as three days zoomed by.
“Wake up, wake up, Billionaire, a huge thing appeared!” The System did not care if Fang Ning was truly asleep and yelled early in the morning.
“Chill out, what are you making a fuss out of?” Fang Ning rubbed his eyes and looked at the time. “Why are you waking me up at 6 in the morning?”
“This is 6 in the morning, three days later…” The System said bitterly.
“Oh, is that so? I’ve been so deep into my training, I’ve forgotten to eat and sleep… I don’t even know the time anymore, what an embarrassment.” Fang Ning replied pretentiously.
“You’ve forgotten to eat, yes, but not only did you not forget to sleep, you’ve even claimed a lot of it…” The System sniped.
“Stop spouting nonsense, what did you say appeared just now? I bet it’s the ‘luring the enemy’ phase.” Fang Ning said confidently.
“What? What in tarnation, I thought it would at least be a month later before they would use this plan. It’s been only three days, and they set it up now? That’s just underestimating me! I really thought there would be treasures…” The System was livid.
“That’s because you’re infamous with your love for rewards. Besides, you don’t have to pretend to be angry. If there are no treasures, there will be a huge amount of experience points. A Lunar Devil can give you ten billion points! The more you nab them, the less they will have to create new ones, I don’t believe they could create them limitlessly.” Fang Ning quipped.
System Notification: [The Host saw through the System’s wordplay, the Host’s instinct was raised.]
“Hey, this principle is still pretty fair, isn’t it? Did it evolve, and why don’t I know that it did?” Fang Ning was thoughtful as he saw the notification.
“Did it? Maybe, I just feel like it was much smarter than this time, last year.” The System said proudly.
“Mm. You’re getting smarter,” agreed Fang Ning. “But you’re still as greedy and socially inept as usual… I guess evolution just wouldn’t help you in those situations.”
“I don’t understand, now develop an action proposal for me, I want them to taste their own medicine.” The System shut him down quickly.
Fang Ning lifted his head. “Let me assess the situation before giving you a proper proposal.”
He immediately went in front of the computer, where the System had already compiled all the messages into a word document.
“American scientists had recently found out that Mars was sparkling with a red light of unknown source. According to the Mars Explorer XX, the red pillar of light might be an indication of the appearance of a rare treasure of unknown grade.”
“According to the spectrum analysis, the treasure may be a compound that had yet to be identified…”
The rest of the document was filled with gibberish that talked about how great the treasure looked and what it could allow people to achieve…
It also stressed that “the treasure could only be used by moral people, so please, heroes, lay your claims before it fell into wrong hands.”
“This is such an insult to the System, no wonder you’re upset. Isn’t it obvious it wanted to lure… you?”
“That’s right, it’s laid out so clearly without any sense of subtlety. That’s totally insulting my intelligence!”
“Heh, they didn’t underestimate your IQ…” Fang Ning said shiftily.
“Oh, that right. I don’t think they would dare to underestimate my IQ.” The System said satisfactorily.
“They’re just completely dismissing it…” Fang Ning followed up with a critical hit that was partially induced by his grumpiness in the morning.
“…” The System had no comeback to that.
After working off his grumpiness, Fang Ning immediately began working. After three days of sleep, he felt very guilty, so he had to make up for it.
While working, he muttered out loud to show how hardworking he is…
“First, we need to pinpoint the exact location. Mars? Seems far. How many hundred million kilometers is that? Don’t remember. Need to confirm with Anderson.”
“Then, we’ll need to estimate the scale of the enemies and the upper limit of their strength.”
“Lastly, can Axiom Daddy cover us there? Would there be time for backups to arrive? Can Brett’s Thousand-mile Assistance cover such a long distance?”
“I don’t know about the former, you have to ask your Axiom Daddy yourself. The latter, I can guarantee no problem. I have plenty of Morality Bars to spare now. I can even come back from the Centaurus constellation, let alone Mars…”
“Ssst…” Fang Ning inhaled sharply in surprise. He knew how far the Centaurus constellation was from Earth, it was at least several light years away!
“If that’s the case, I’m not worried. Let’s ask Brett to make the necessary preparation, and we can… Wait, let’s learn the Space Diversion Technique before we go.”
Fang Ning stopped himself and followed his instinct that said he had to prepare more escape routes.
“Billionaire, you’re right. Safety first.” The System agreed fiercely.
…
In the Draconic Arcane Realm, Tom the tiger laid atop the hill with Shi Da brush its fur with a brush.
Tom closed its eyes lazily. Shi Da might be a pervert, but he was really hardworking. He had mastered the amount of pressure and speed that he used to brush its fur in mere days.
That was much stronger than the white lady who only cared about her comfort when she brushed instead of its feelings.
However, it was still wary of the man, as he was always trying to confirm its gender. It did not know what plans he was trying to carry out, but it had nothing to do with admiring its powerful tigerly stance.
At the thought, Tom was slightly disappointed. Its charm did not extend to all the clans and races without regard for their genders, only the ignorant local cats.
Its tiger ears twitched and it turned its head, noticing the young man who was the Draconic Penitentiary’s warden walking toward it.
‘There he comes, I thought he had already forgotten about the Space Diversion Technique. Although, that is still pretty nice if I can live here comfortably without worrying about the future…’
It stood up promptly as Shi Da kept his brush and greeted Fang Ning.
“Oh, Mr. Thom, how are you faring in here?” Fang Ning asked courteously.
“It was decent, good enough for me to not miss home.” Tom blurted out.
“True or false?” Fang Ning asked.
“My instinct told me that it speaks the truth,” confirmed the System. “However, you should ask Leader Shi if you want an accurate answer.”
“Forget about it, it’s too much trouble. After all, it couldn’t do anything…” Fang Ning was relieved.
He said, “Mr. Thom, if you’ve found here satisfactory, do you think you could teach me the Space Diversion Technique?”
“Naturally, I’ve already written down the necessary chants. Here you go.” Tom extended its paw where a thin sheet of bamboo appeared.
“It must have an interspatial tool hidden on its body.” The System told Fang Ning.
Fang Ning was prepared to say, “Don’t lose the big picture, we have plenty of interspatial equipment ourselves, why do we need the one it has?” before he got it and immediately say, “Oh, yes, I know, I know.”
“Do you really? I mean it must have a cornucopia of treasures hidden inside that space…” said the System worriedly.
“That’s exactly what I meant,” assured Fang Ning. “Don’t worry, I will definitely strip it bare for you.”
“Nice, I’m going to learn this thing.” The System kept the bamboo scroll and stopped responding.
