Chapter 1250: New Prize? Red Sun? Blue Moon?
Countless people climbed out of bed, their faces filled with shock as they stared at the massive cannon spewing a blue beam of light a kilometer in diameter!
The blinding blue light illuminated the entire imperial capital as if it were daytime!
Just what kind of terrifying power was this?!
Was the black giant cannon not just for show?
It could actually fire?
Because of the Lantis barrier, countless big shots from various factions had gathered in the Yu Kingdom imperial capital!
They all witnessed this horrifying scene!
While their hearts were filled with terror, it also stirred up their longing for the ancient Su relics!
This thing was way too powerful! If only they could get one too...
At this moment, Pang Badi looked at the beam of light with a face full of disgust, cursing loudly!
Qian Benying covered her head, her expression one of utter terror!
୧(๑◔﹏◔ิ๑)୨ "Who pissed him off again? Do they not want to live?"
Right then, at the ruins of the Yu Kingdom royal palace, Senator, who was still hesitating about whether to cooperate with Hua Xia, watched the kilometer-wide beam of light with a pale face, his pupils violently contracting!
He waved his hand grandly and said urgently!
٩(ʘ̆皿ʘ̥̆‖) "Cooperation! Cooperate now!"
If he delayed any longer, his Yu Kingdom imperial capital might have to be rebuilt!
Craig's mouth twitched uncontrollably. He just got the thing and already used it?
You really dared to fire that thing!
The blue beam was brilliant, tearing through the sea of clouds, destroying everything in its path!
It was like a blue laser sword shooting out from Lan Xing!
...
Above the Mi Guo, at a low-Earth orbit 400 km from the ground!
Star-Plucker Martin, wearing a spacesuit, was carrying a 30-ton space module on his shoulder, flying upward!
Using his gravity ability, he could completely ignore the weight of the space module, breaking free from Lan Xing's gravitational pull!
No need to launch rockets; a person could just carry it into low-Earth orbit!
Over twenty space modules had already been assembled, forming a massive structure in low-Earth orbit!
Only a few more modules were needed to complete it!
Martin, drenched in sweat, looked at his creation with satisfaction!
(๐⌒ᗜ⌒)°˖✧
These space modules were all carried up and assembled by him, piece by piece!
This was exactly what he had been busy with all this time!
With a few more modules assembled, it would be ready for official use!
When that time comes...
(•̌ヮ•̑๑)ˀ̣ˀ̣ "Hmm? What's that blue thing? Looks like it's heading this way—"
"Shwoosh!"
Before he could finish speaking, a blue beam of light a kilometer in diameter shot right past Martin!
With a "BOOM," it struck the already-assembled space station!
The spatial rift torn open by the beam scared Martin so much he nearly crapped himself. He quickly backed away, his face full of terror!
(ʘ̆﹏ʘ̥̆‖)
He hurriedly looked toward low-Earth orbit!
The space station had already exploded into a brilliant firework under the blue beam!
Nothing was left!
Martin: (‧̣̥̇･᷄ㅂ･᷅)???
At the same time, a call came through from the Mi Guo Space Agency's communications station!
"Lord Martin? Has the 27th module been installed? Report your progress?"
Martin stared blankly at the fading blue beam...
(‧̣̥̇꒪_꒪) "Gone... it's gone~ And you're asking about the 27th? Modules 1 through 26 are all blown up. There's nowhere to install it!"
At this moment, in the Space Agency control hall, Director Caville's eyes bulged!
(ଵ口ଵ‖)ᕤ "What? What did you say? Say that again!"
Blown up? How the hell could it be blown up?!
Just then, the staff received footage from the photoelectric telescope and projected it onto the big screen!
(*ﾟﾛﾟ) "Sigh~ Laser weapon? Director, look! It really is blown up!"
In the footage, a kilometer-wide blue beam instantly blasted the space station...
Caville: ???
(ꐦ•̀益•́ꐦ)و "Motherf*cker?!"
"Investigate! Find out who did it! Do you know how many dollars this plan cost the Space Agency? Hundreds of billions?!"
Caville's heart was bleeding. What kind of thing could shoot from the ground to low-Earth orbit?
Did Lan Xing even have such a thing?
The staff quickly mobilized satellites to investigate!
"Sigh~ It seems to have been fired from the Yu Kingdom direction. It's the Yu Kingdom imperial capital!"
"The Yu Kingdom? That little crummy place has such a terrifying thing? And they dared to attack our space station?"
"This... a videographer in the Yu Kingdom imperial capital uploaded a short video. It... it seems like Jiangnan fired the cannon!"
The video showed the Yu Kingdom imperial capital, footage of Jiangnan firing the cannon...
Caville: (ꐦథ益థꐦ)...
Damn it! An ancient Su relic? Fired from the Yu Kingdom imperial capital, and it blew up the space station he had just sent up?
"Director! He definitely has to pay compensation for this! That's not how you do things!"
"That's right! He has to pay! This is an international incident, we can't just—"
[From Caville: Resentment +1000!]
"Pay my ass! This plan is top secret! If we take it public, won't everyone know?!"
"What rotten luck! Tch~ Call the higher-ups! Have them reallocate the funds!"
At this moment, in the Space Agency control hall, countless staff members watched the short video, frantically refreshing their resentment!
All that preparation over such a long time, completely wasted!
[From Paul: Resentment +1000!]
[From Lisa...]
Martin's face darkened. He didn't know whether to be grateful or start cursing!
If it had been a bit closer, he would have been gone!
I'm in f*cking low-Earth orbit, and you can still hit me?!
I just—~%?…;#*'☆
[From Martin...]
...
Back in the RV, Jiangnan looked confused!
(๑•̌～•̑๑)ˀ̣ˀ̣
David was sending him resentment? The one just now was the Magician?
Whoa? Why was Martin sending it too?
And who was Caville? Why were there hundreds of foreigners sending him resentment?
How strange!
After firing that shot, Jiangnan couldn't sleep. The Magician had come too? Would his little brother come as well?
If that were the case, things might get a bit tricky...
Jiangnan felt like he had zero sense of security.
So he decided to try his luck with the lottery!
He hadn't drawn since his trip to the Western Frontier. He'd been earning resentment the whole time, but he'd also spent quite a bit on various prizes in between.
Now he had over 13 million saved up!
Gritting his teeth, Jiangnan spent 8 million on draws and quickly pulled out his little notebook to record it!
To make sure he didn't run out before reaching 30 million and missing out on the upgrade card!
[(๐◔﹏◔ิ๐)…]
[Lucky 10-Draw Start!]
[Thanks for participating! Consolation Prize: One bottle of Didiwei Perfume Spray!]
[Congratulations! Prize: One Bobo Lipstick!]
[Thanks for participating...]
Jiangnan was surprised. The system baby was being pretty well-behaved this time!
Quite a few proper prizes had come out, and the win rate was even higher than before!
Jiangnan chuckled happily. Keeping accounts was indeed the right choice!
When he reached the 60th draw, the prize list finally showed something new!
[Congratulations! Prize: One Bobo Lipstick!]
[Thanks for participating! Consolation Prize: One Twin Lollipop!]
[Thanks for participating...]
Jiangnan's eyes widened, and he got excited!
˚*̥(∗*⁰͈꒨⁰͈)*̥ Oh?!
A new prize?
A consolation prize?
Jiangnan felt a little disappointed. He'd thought it was a proper prize.
Something like the Bobo Lipstick, which was practically a divine artifact, no side effects, just great!
Consolation prizes were always something Jiangnan had a love-hate relationship with!
Twin Lollipop?
Just the name was weird enough, wasn't it?
He quickly checked its effects!
[Twin Lollipop!]
Effect: Synchronizes both users! Duration: 60 minutes total. Takes effect once both parties consume it!
"Red Sun? Blue Moon?"
"Twins are just alike!"
"Moon follows the Red Sun!"
"Sun follows the Blue Moon!"
"Lollipops are meant to be shared by two people~"
(งᵒ̴̶̷᷅ᐜᵒ̴̶̷᷄)ڡ Nice~
Jiangnan: ???
What kind of cryptic description was this?
What does synchronizing users mean? It sounds so ominous!
Descriptions like this usually meant unbearable consequences, didn't they?
Swallowing his saliva, Jiangnan quickly pulled out one Twin Lollipop to examine it!
The lollipop had a long plastic stick in the middle with candy on both ends!
One side was red candy, the other blue!
Jiangnan gently snapped the stick in half, turning it into two separate lollipops!
Jiangnan was stunned. Whoa?
It was a shareable version? Both people had to eat it for it to work?
This was the first time he'd encountered a consolation prize like this!
After hesitating for a moment, Jiangnan's expression hardened!
He grabbed the red lollipop and popped it into his mouth. It tasted like cherry, really good!
He needed to figure out what the effect and side effects were, so he wouldn't mess up at a critical moment!
As soon as Jiangnan stuffed the lollipop into his mouth, Mila, smelling the candy, suddenly opened her eyes!
(｡･᷄～･᷅) "Lollipop! I want one too!"
Jiangnan quickly hid the blue lollipop!
(｡･᷄◡･᷅) "Eating candy at night will give you cavities. Wait until morning, okay?"
Mila giggled. "Alright, I'll listen to Jiangnan Gege!"
Jiangnan breathed a sigh of relief. He wouldn't screw over Mila, no matter what!
Jiangnan fell into deep thought. Who should he give it to?
But after he licked the lollipop clean and chewed it up, swallowing it, there was still no reaction for a long time!
It seemed you really did need both people to eat it for it to work!
Putting that aside for now, Jiangnan started examining the stone pillar runes he had in his memory!
Through soul imprinting, he had learned quite a bit!
This thing was different from the Absolute Space God-Controlling curse array!
It was a one-way valve: you could get in, but you couldn't get out!
But he needed to imprint all 12 stone pillars into his memory!
One soul imprint took at least 30 seconds!
And each cost 10 million skill points. That meant imprinting all of them would cost at least 110 million?
Damn! This was the first time Jiangnan felt like skill points weren't enough!
But the usefulness of this curse array was immense. Not learning it would be a waste!
So he needed to save up 110 million skill points before his next trip to Lantis?
That would require earning over 10 billion!
Should he sell Alice again?
That would be a bit shady. Jiangnan's eyes darted around, spinning with ideas!
He pulled out a bottle of Didiwei Spray!
(΄◞ิꇴ◟ิ‵) "Hehehe~ This is forcing me to take the unconventional path!"
