Chapter 452: 452. Business of Ten Billion
Chapter 452: 452. Business of Ten Billion
Lu Yao sat atop the head of the Willpower Golden Dragon, freely galloping and roaming.
Magical treasure, such a thing was meant for the Celestial Lords of the Thunder Tribulation Realm to use.
Daily maintenance and the activation of its mighty powers both required a massive consumption of Mind Force or willpower, and not being in a high enough realm meant paying a steep price for its use.
Lucky for him, Blue Star possessed an inexhaustible supply of willpower; the Golden Dragon could be used here at will without worrying about depletion.
Moreover, as Blue Star’s understanding and worship of Xia Country’s Dragon Capital deepened, the Golden Dragon grew stronger merely by showing up on the planet, even if it did nothing—its power-ups were more extreme than that of Lu Yao, its own master.
Before he knew it, it had grown a hundred meters long, still one-third bigger than a passenger jet.
At this moment, Lu Yao steered the Golden Dragon along the Arctic route towards Xia Country, continuously navigating by Earth’s magnetic field.
This azure planet was magnificent and beautiful, providing so much help.
“My old home here is my foundation; I need to maintain it well.”
The Golden Dragon’s rapid flight stirred up waves tens of meters high as it dashed toward its destination.
Lu Yao had planned to buy a deep-sea camera to deal with the Gold matter, but he didn’t expect to receive a call from the couple Li Jin and Zhao Ya first.
After connecting, Zhao Ya’s voice rang out, “Lu Yao, your item is ready.”
Glancing at the time, only six hours had passed, and Lu Yao was somewhat surprised, “That fast?”
“This is one of the top ten military enterprises globally; the structure of what you asked for is simple, of course, it’s fast.”
Zhao Ya added, “Of course, it’s also because the higher-ups value this, immediately assembled the best of the best, and fully opened the production line.”
“Then, thank you very much.”
This wasn’t bad either; he could pick up the item first and also sort out the equipment problem along the way.
Right away, Lu Yao said, “Right, Zhao, can you find a way to get me a deep-sea live broadcasting equipment?”
“Deep-sea live broadcasting equipment? What are you going to do with that?”
“What else? Live broadcasting deep-sea treasure hunting adventures~”
“Why all of a sudden… Alright, wait for my message; there shouldn’t be any problems.”
~~~~~~~~~~~
Xia Country, the capital’s western suburbs, Warehouse 073.
Since yesterday, a traffic control had been implemented within a 20-kilometer radius, strictly forbidding any individuals and vehicles from entering or leaving.
Military drones also patrolled the sky, ready to shoot down anyone daring to peek.
When the time reached 8 o’clock in the morning, Lu Yao arrived riding the Golden Dragon.
Letting the Golden Dragon grasp the Stone Lion in the sky to absorb the Yan Huang willpower, Lu Yao leapt from mid-air and lightly floated down in front of two people.
Waiting for him were none other than the couple Li Jin and Zhao Ya.
When they saw Lu Yao descending from the sky, they were not too surprised, as his videos were everywhere on various apps—no normal person hadn’t seen a hundred or eighty of them.
Upon meeting, Li Jin warmly embraced the long-unseen Lu Yao:
“Your feats are truly fantastical; it still feels like I’m dreaming. But no matter what, our whole family is always grateful and supportive of you!”
Lu Yao had saved Li Jin’s family twice, and their gratitude was heartfelt.
“You two men stop being sappy,” Zhao Ya said from the side. “Give Lu Yao the items first; don’t hold up the Immortal’s business.”
Only then did Li Jin lead Lu Yao into the warehouse.
There were a thousand light Battle Armors, and a hundred heavy Mechas neatly arranged, with a .50 caliber machine gun and a Gatling Gun mounted on their shoulders respectively.
The quality of Xia Country’s military industry was certainly extraordinary. These steel fortresses looked exceptionally fierce, but the details were somewhat rounded, showcasing meticulous craftsmanship.
Lu Yao was very satisfied, and that wasn’t all.
Li Jin took out an even thinner “cell phone” and handed it over, saying,
“This is the latest communication terminal. It connects to the Beidou satellite, more secure and reliable than what you currently use, and can adapt to a variety of extreme conditions.”
“Thanks,” Lu Yao nodded, accepting the special cell phone made entirely of alloy.
Then, Zhao Ya pointed to a diving device about two meters long, resembling a large black fish, and said,
“You wanted deep-sea live broadcast equipment, right? This is an unmanned submarine. It used to be sent by the Star Alliance Country to scout in our waters. Later, one was caught by a fisherman. This is the domestic version after reverse-engineering, and it incorporates some of the Striver’s technologies.”
The Striver was Xia Country’s “ten-thousand-meter manned submersible” which had taken crewmen down over ten thousand meters to the bottom of the Mariana Trench.
Pointing at the clearly advanced military equipment, Zhao Ya went on,
“The control program is already integrated into the phone I gave you just now. The communication devices transmit optical signals. You only need to deploy a simple base station on the sea surface, and it can operate at the bottom of the sea, ten thousand meters deep.”
Lu Yao memorized the usage method, then looked up and asked, “How much for all these things?”
Li Jin took out a briefcase and smiled, saying, “Not a single cent. You might even make a profit. Here are several agreements you can take a look at.”
At first glance, they were broadcasting agreements from several provincial satellite TVs and social media giants.
There were also several media groups wanting to represent the overseas broadcasting rights for this live event.
The agreements involved amounts in the billions, totaling nearly a hundred billion yuan when added up.
These were huge enterprises, with entwined relations with government departments. They got wind of Lu Yao’s plans for a deep-sea live broadcast early on. Realizing the astonishing profits involved, they rushed forward immediately.
Seeing that all those involved were domestic giants, and that all they needed were his signatures on various authorizations, Lu Yao, who also needed to expand his influence to maintain his Willpower, casually agreed to all of them with a wave of his hand.
In an instant, a hundred billion yuan deal was struck.
Li Jin and his wife Zhao Ya also breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile,
“Before coming here, we were begged by those guys for a long time, fearing that you, being like an Immortal, wouldn’t be interested in worldly gains. Now we can finally rest assured.”
The couple had been silent up until now, allowing Lu Yao to make his own decisions; this outcome was a joy for everyone.
Next, Lu Yao had the Willpower Golden Dragon dive down and collect all the items on the ground into its body, then one by one, placed them into the Space-Time Bubble.
And it was at this moment, in a mobile command base ten kilometers away, that numerous scientists exclaimed in astonishment,
“What is this dragon made of!? All the detection instruments’ data is in chaos! It seems to have been subjected to strong electromagnetic interference!”
“The Golden Dragon itself is formed by a strong magnetic field constraining ions, unintentionally releasing electron pulses.”
At this point, the instruments around these scientists were in total disarray, their readings fluctuating wildly, having completely lost any reference value.
An elderly man with white hair and beard said, “Let’s see if Li Jin and his wife can obtain a sample of his hair. With their relationship, it shouldn’t be hard.”
However, a middle-aged man in military attire intervened,
“No! We must not do anything that could affect the bilateral relationship. Be patient. Stability is key, and opportunities will come in the future.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Elsewhere, Lu Yao once more embraced Li Jin and his wife Zhao Ya to say goodbye.
“I need to go. When I have some downtime, I’ll seek you out to catch up.”
“Farewell, Lu Yao. May your journey be smooth!”
