“In the records of the Sage Sect, the Lie Flame Technique was once an ultimate power and was extremely strong. However, with Ragnarok, that kind of power had also disappeared. It is currently recovering. Although it has not recovered to the state where it was at the peak, the opportunity has appeared. The existence that had been stopping us from communicating with the power of the universe had started to relax. This might finally be the end of the darkness after the dusk…”
That was the real golden era of human civilisation. During that era, the powerful and invincible Mayans had stopped in their steps. They had lowered their noble heads and signed the humiliating treaty…
Lie Guang blinked his eyes but could see the worries his Master had with regard to the re-emergence of this era.
“Master, it seemed that there was something bothering you?”
After thinking about it, Lie Guang decided to still ask.
Odin smiled faintly and was extremely impressed with Lie Guang’s observation skills. “In that era, although the Sage Sect was strong, there was another more terrifying monster. That place was once the centre of the world and all the Cultivation Techniques were from it… Hehe. However, with Ragnarok, that existence had split into pieces. In the end, it was even breached by the forces that it was suppressing… However, “it” wasn’t destroyed but was broken into parts….. Forget it. It is too early to be talking about these with you all. One could only stay undefeated by becoming stronger. In these 3 months, I would require you all to devote all your heart into it and I wouldn’t need any distractions.”
“Yes! Sage… Master.” Lie Xin had gotten used to addressing Odin as the Sage. However, she changed the address in the end under the supervision of Odin.
Although they weren’t clear of the details, both of them were clear that under the guidance of the Sage and the fact that they had the Lie Flame Technique with them, they would be at the forefront of the era!
Even though other large families had Cultivation Techniques that were as strong, they did not have the guidance from the ancient pioneers such as the Sage Sect.
The following 3 months would be crucial.
However, Odin’s deep worries weren’t something they could understand. The awakening of that major existence that was the centre of the world would bring about unforeseeable variables. What would be “its” stand?
Even the Sage that garnered unparalleled respect on Mars didn’t dare to think about it.
Wang Zheng had just completed his patrol duties when he received a Skylink message from Lan Ling. Wang Zheng was a bit stunned. He had been busy with the research on mecha and was in terrible shape. The results of the creations were wonderful but the process was a struggle. He had to constantly refute himself and re-establish himself. Barry, Zisu and Wang Zheng were having a small “quarrel” every day and a big “quarrel” every 3 days. Otaku Barry was shy normally but when it was regarding mecha, he was definitely imposing with his views.
There were 2 main problems. One of them would be the materials while the other was a super pro who was familiar with the “Wind” attributes. Those who only had an ordinary understand of the “Wind” attributes would not be useful. This was because for this model of mech to be completed, they would need constructive feedback and a direction.
Similar to the Wind God mech, the displacement technique was the ultimate move that made it unique in the world. However, what should be the unique selling point for this model build for used on the Tita Star?
The important point was to be able to display the unique points of a super mech! Wang Zheng had also felt that they were lacking something.
With regard to this, the three of them each held their own views but were unable to convince one another.
“Student Wang, you were being a little ungrateful to have forgotten about your life’s saviour. You hadn’t even contacted me once since arriving at Canyon City!”
Lan Ling raised her delicate eyebrows and wanted to act as though she was angry. However, she was naturally gentle and kind and didn’t look like it no matter how she tried to act.
“Cough cough. I was afraid that you were too busy.”
“Weave! Continue to weave your lies!” Lan Ling was kind but not gullible.
“Cough cough. Miss Lan Ling, it was my fault Let me apologise to you officially. I had been busy with the research on new mecha recently and it had been giving me a headache. If there’s anything I could do for you, I wouldn’t hesitate even if it was going through fire and water!” Wang Zheng said with a serious face.
This had made Lan Ling felt a little bad. The truth was that she was a little angry. Was it that he didn’t want to see her? There weren’t any greetings despite the fact that a long time had passed. She was a girl and still had some reservations. However, after seeing Wang Zheng being so frank, she knew that he had serious matters to attend to.
“I was just joking. My birthday was on the next Saturday. I was wondering if you would be free.”
Wang Zheng was taken aback slightly and laughed,” The weekends were my off days. As long as there weren’t any special military situations, I would definitely be there!”
“That would be it! I will send you the invitation.” Lan Ling revealed a smile from the bottom of her heart. Even she had not expected herself to be so happy about it.
The 24th birthday of Lan Ling was an extremely important day for the Lan Family.
For this day, the Lan Family had started their preparation since a month ago. Using the occasion of the birthday of the Missy of the Lan Family, there were a lot of things that could be settled. It was also important to stay in contact with other relevant powers.
Numerous days ago, the entire Lan Kao City had been more lively than in the past. The people of Tita, who were rarely seen” had been appearing more frequently on the streets. This was testament to the continuation of the agreement between the Lan Family and the people of Tita. Amongst the early immigrants, only the Lan Family could obtain the trust of the people of Tita. It was only during such occasion that the giants of Tita would enter the city. The only unknown was about the scale of the event.
On the night of Friday.
“You will be going to Lan Kao City?”
Jing Long, Lao Xiong and Chang Dadan were looking at Wang Zheng. They had originally intended to invite Wang Zheng to the bar to flirt with the beer girls. Since Wang Zheng was single, he had to find something fun to be living. When the student soldier had just arrived, it wasn’t appropriate for them to do so. However, they had become familiar with one another since then. If they still weren’t hanging around together, it would be deviation from the norms of the crowd. Moreover, as his seniors, they had the responsibilities to teach Wang Zheng on how to become a real man.
“I was recuperating in Lan Kao City previously. A friend that I knew would be celebrating her birthday tomorrow and had invited me to celebrate with her.” smiled Wang Zheng.
“A friend? Celebrate a birthday? Hehe. She must be a girl right?”
Jing Long was excited suddenly.
“Hehe.” Wang Zheng only laughed.
“Speaking of birthday, the Missy of the Lan Family will also be celebrating her birthday soon. I had heard that it would be a big event, especially so for the ball at night. Rumours had it that only prominent figures would receive an invitation.” Chang Dadan was always well informed.
“Yeah, it’s her.” laughed Wang Zheng.
Everyone was taken aback and burst into laughter. Chang Dadan put his arms around Wang Zheng’s shoulders and said,” How did you fall for the flower of Tita Star. It seemed that you have a great appetite. You have true ambitions! She was my dream lover. Should we sneak in together?”
“Don’t disgrace the Red Fox Section!” laughed Jing Long. This would cause problems especially in the current sensitive period. We couldn’t be creating opportunities for our opponents to get back at us.
“Such matters are beyond us. However, I heard that the bars in Lan Kao City are even open in the day and the girls were more open than the girls in Canyon City. I wasn’t sure if it was just the rumours.” Lao Xiong placed much emphasis on the atmosphere when drinking too. He might seem like a careless person but when it came to bars, he could talk with you about bar culture for several hours.
……
“Tsk, after hearing what you said, I would really want to experience it. Let’s go together!.” laughed Jing Long. Everyone had been staying in Canyon City most of the time and had rarely visited the Lan Kao City.
When they stepped out of the door, they saw Red Fox who had been very busy over the last few days. When the Red Fox saw the group, she was a little surprised. “Why are you all still around in the base?”
If it was a usual Friday, the group would have left in a car to the city to hang around at this time.
“Oh, the student soldier had something to do in the Lan Kao City. His friend would be celebrating her birthday and we would be going too to join in the fun.”
“Going to the Lan Kao City? That’s great. I have matters to attend there too. Lets go together.” The Red Fox smiled.
“The Captain is going too? Would there be a flying ship?” Lao Xiong started to make noise.
“The Golden Fox and Silver Fox would be around too. Would you guys like to go together too?” said the Red Fox as she nodded her head.
“Forget it then. Let’s just take the inter-cities train and look at the scenery while playing cards.”
“Oh right, Chang Xiaodan, you still owe me a $100!”
…
The speed of the military-used cargo ship was much faster than the inter-cities train. However, the people you travelled with mattered more in a trip.
The night life in Lan Kao City was well known. Without a doubt, the crowd headed straight for the largest bar street. It was a rare occasion that the Red Fox was with them and everyone was even more excited than usual.
“Great!”
Lao Xiong had ordered a bundle of beer. The girls who were selling beer were showing their cleavage in front of him. It was true that the girls were several times more open than the girls in Canyon City. Lao Xiong even make it clear that he would buy beer from whoever had the best cleavage.
Chang Dadan was appreciating the various cleavages. After taking a large gulp of beer, he grabbed Wang Zheng and said,” Do you want to call your friend over too?”
“Forget it. We would be more at ease ourselves.”
At the bar table, the Red Fox was having a great time drinking. As compared to the beer the beer girls were promoting, she preferred the cocktail from the bartender. She particularly liked those that had a burning sensation when it entered the mouth. Unknowingly, she had drank over 10 cups.
“Student soldier, come over here.”
The Red Fox waved her hands at Wang Zheng.
“Yes.” laughed Wang Zheng as he brought his beer and sat down at the bar table.
“Why are you drinking beer? Give me 2 cups of 3-coloured Flower.”
Pa. The Red Fox signalled to the bartender to make them some hard liquor.
Wang Zheng smiled. As he raised his head, he gulped down the beer in his hands. Following which, he picked up the 3-coloured Flower cocktail. There were 3 distinct colours. When he finished it in one gulp, it wasn’t spicy at all and even felt sweet like flowers.
However, in an instant, the energy of the alcohol erupted from the stomach and the burning sensation spread throughout the body.
“It must have tasted great! Give me 2 more.” The Red Fox continued to signal at the bartender. “From your appearance, I guess that you are still a virgin.”
Wang Zheng almost spit out the alcohol in his mouth. Theoretically speaking, she was right.
“Weren’t you curious how I could tell?”
Wang Zheng nodded his head like a curious baby.
“A mature man would prefer to look at women’s legs, or even feet or hands. Only a small boy would stare at the breast.” laughed the Red Fox.
“It can’t always be the case. They guys here all looked at… breasts.”
“The looks in their eyes are different from yours. There shouldn’t be a lack of girls who would be interested in an elite from IG. Let sister give you a piece of advice. It wouldn’t be good if you hold it in for too long… Could it be that you were interested in mature women?”
The Red Fox blinked her eyes flirtatiously. It might be due to the effects of the alcohol but surprisingly, Wang Zheng’s heart started to pound quickly as though a wild horse was trying to break free from its reins.
“What’s the matter? Could it be that Captain wants to capture me?” said Wang Zheng.
