Chapter 1679: Increase the Wife Fund
Hope forcefully endured not passing out, and performed severed limb regeneration!
But the missing part was too big, not something that could grow back in a short while, plus the effect of the Dao injury!
After quite some effort, he only managed to grow two small calves, no different from a baby's short legs!
Paired with his rough upper body, it looked extremely incongruous!
Yet even if he cut them off and regrew them, the legs still didn’t work well!
The Dao injury that had tormented Xiao Chuihuo for over a decade—how could it be so easily cured?
But Hope had no time to care about that anymore!
He had already lost his wife and lost his soldiers!
He couldn’t afford to lose his money too!
Otherwise, how would he even get by?
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and help me over there!"
Gugu and Nazha didn’t bother with it anymore either. Each grabbed one of Hope’s arms, lifted him off the ground, and carried him over!
…
At the same time, in the corridor of the riverbed gold vault.
Jiangnan suddenly appeared. The moment he did, the alarm went off!
It wasn’t that Jiangnan didn’t want to directly enter the vault, but for an organization as large as the Desolate River Society, the vault was inevitably equipped with a Spirit-Binding Force Field!
Jiangnan had to settle for the next best option and teleport into the corridor outside the vault first!
The guards lined up in the corridor, upon seeing Jiangnan appear, their eyes bulged bigger than light bulbs!
(Ŏ◊Ŏ‧̣̥̇) "Ah! It’s Jiang—"
Jiangnan curled his lip: (￢～￢) "What are you looking at? Never seen a robbery before?"
With that, Jiangnan twisted his neck, and the little whip behind him shot out wildly, immediately a roar of booming sounds echoed through the corridor!
He swaggered right into the Spirit-Binding Force Field!
Rifles and machine guns fired wildly at Jiangnan, bullet casings flying!
And Jiangnan couldn’t even be bothered to block; he was bulletproof anyway!
To be honest, the machine gun massage felt pretty good!
All the way through the corridor, Jiangnan didn’t even lift a hand. The little whip took care of all the guarding forces!
Looking back at the corridor, he saw some people embedded in the walls, some stuck in the ceiling, and others on the ground twitching and foaming at the mouth!
He then stopped in front of the vault door.
(͡°ก͡°) "Tsk tsk tsk—Spirit-Binding Steel? Not stingy with the materials, huh?"
At this moment, two guards stood outside the vault, watching Jiangnan advance like he was walking into an empty land as he slaughtered his way over!
Sweat poured from their heads like a showerhead, and their hands holding the guns trembled!
Jiangnan looked at the two, forcefully snorted through his nose, and directly blew out a 5.56mm Spirit-Binding armor-piercing bullet from his left nostril!
It clattered to the ground and rolled to the feet of one guard!
The two guards shuddered, with looks on their faces like they were about to cry!
(´థᯅథ)
This… this was catching a bullet with his nostril!
How were they supposed to fight that?
So they promptly put down their guns, stripped themselves naked, and neatly folded their equipment!
Leaving only their shorts on, without a word, they front-rolled away!
How much were they getting paid a month to fight this monster to the death?
Jiangnan smiled with satisfaction: (՞ټ՞) "I like obedient little brothers like this!"
He then looked over the Spirit-Binding Steel door, which was enough to withstand a nuclear strike!
Would Spirit-Binding even work?
He stepped forward, stomped the ground, twisted his waist, and threw a punch at the vault door!
"Boom!"
The earth trembled, and the steel door caved in!
After three consecutive hydrogen bomb punches, he tore open the three-meter-thick steel door!
He always called others tyrannosauruses; Jiangnan himself wasn’t much different, was he?
Forcing his way in by sheer strength!
Accompanied by the grating sound of metal deformation, Jiangnan pried the steel door open and walked into the vault!
Immediately stunned by the dazzling golden scene before him!
(๑¥ᗜ¥) "Rich! I’m rich!"
Gold bricks were stacked into walls; even now, gold was still hard currency!
All kinds of Spirit Pearls of various grades were sorted and piled in boxes in the corner. Jiangnan even saw Starlight Pearls!
Rare spirit fruits, top-tier spirit materials, large quantities of Spirit-Binding Pearls!
Enough to dazzle the eyes. Even Jiangnan, who had seen big sights, was stunned by the scene!
His wife fund had been completely drained on the moon, and this was a perfect chance to replenish it!
The Desolate River Society had certainly scraped quite a bit from the Rainforest Maze, huh?
[Prompt: System malfunction!]
[(๑◔₃◔ิ๑) Th… the previous stall fee was calculated wrong. It wasn’t one hundred billion, it was…]
Over a dozen veins bulged on Jiangnan’s forehead, and he smiled a nuclear-friendly smile!
(ꐦ°᷄◡°᷅ꐦ) "Want to crash again, do you? Darling? Better think carefully before you speak!"
So much for "calculated wrong" — a system that’s bad at math!
Yet it could calculate exchange rates perfectly!
Just because I’m making big money, you want to skim off the top, don’t you? Could the intention be any clearer?
[(☍﹏⁰。) N… not miscalculated!]
Jiangnan grinned: "Now that’s a good system!"
He then packed the Spirit-Binding Pearls into a magnetic box for shielding, and the Spirit-Binding Force Field disappeared!
He began a full-scale sweep of the vault, not even bothering to see what the treasures were—just stuffing everything into his Alternate Dimension!
Like a whirlwind, he even found a few more NetEase Cloud Music friend circle stone carvings left by the Maya in the vault!
But he didn’t see the Maya prophecy stone he’d been looking for.
It was said to be collected by the Desolate River Society, but it wasn’t in the vault?
Jiangnan was in the middle of packing happily when Gugu and Nazha carried Hope down!
Seeing the mess in the corridor and the hole torn in the vault door, their hearts sank halfway!
They rushed in hurriedly to find Jiangnan frantically teleporting and stuffing treasures into his Alternate Dimension!
Even when the three entered, he only glanced up and then continued packing, completely ignoring them!
Hope: !!!
(▼皿▼#) "Jiangnan? You… why are you stealing my money? My treasures! Stop! Stop it!"
But Jiangnan didn’t listen:
(◦`~´◦) "Stealing and stealing! Calling me darling won’t help!"
Hope almost choked—who the hell called you darling?!
If you had even a shred of decency, you wouldn’t interpret it that way!
Could you at least pause your actions while talking to me? Show some respect for the vault owner, will you?
Stealing right in front of me!
"Stop moving! Are you pretending I don’t exist? Leave some for me! Didn’t we settle things during the day? Why are you still—"
Jiangnan glared: (ꐦ°᷄д°᷅) "What did you say? Told me to stop moving?"
Hope shuddered, remembering the red giant star.
(´-﹏-`；) "N… nothing! I… I was just afraid you’d get tired, so I wanted you to take it slower. Continue!"
His face full of grievance, while Gugu and Nazha were going crazy!
"Boss! You’re just going to watch him take your treasures?"
Hope gritted his teeth so hard they almost broke, fury surging in his heart!
This is killing me! Fight him!
"Jiangnan! Don’t be so shameless! I, Hope, am not someone to be trifled with! I—"
Jiangnan had already finished packing by then, looking at Hope with a smile full of amusement.
(･᷄ὢ･᷅) "What can you do to me? If you have the guts, kill me? Not only do I sleep with your wife, I also rob your treasures!"
"Hey, that’s exciting!"
He then glanced at Hope’s lower half. Hope’s legs weren’t even fully grown yet.
(乛▿乛｡) "Tsk tsk tsk—no wonder you can’t make your wife happy. You’re way too immature!"
"Next time, remember to put on pants before threatening someone. You don’t look intimidating at all."
"I’m off now! No need to see me out!"
With that, he leaped upward, smashed straight through the vault, broke through the rock layers, and appeared in the riverbed!
A huge hole was left in the vault ceiling, and murky river water poured down through it, flooding toward everyone!
Hope looked down at himself—indeed, he wasn’t wearing pants! His pants had been on his previous legs!
So he had been carried all the way here naked?
[From Hope’s Resentment Value +1003!]
[From Hope…]
"This is too much! This is absolutely too much! I must demand an explanation from Jiangnan! I—gurgle gurgle—cough cough!"
The entire riverbed base was flooded!
Jiangnan made off with the treasure and sped straight back to his own camp!
Meanwhile, at the Thug Organization’s mountain cave vault, an ear-piercing alarm also sounded!
A series of clanging and banging was heard from inside the vault!
In no time at all, even the Spirit-Binding Force Field disappeared!
The guards hurried to notify Solomon, and they rushed to open the vault door!
Such tight security, plus the Spirit-Binding Force Field—even a spatial system couldn’t get in!
How could anyone possibly have entered the vault? And the Spirit-Binding Force Field was gone?
What was going on?
As soon as the door opened, the guards surged in!
They saw a huge hole in the vault ceiling and a spatial rift opening!
The treasures were eerily "jumping" into the Alternate Dimension one by one!
By the time they entered, there was almost nothing left in the vault, yet they couldn’t see a single person the whole time!
The guards looked like they’d seen a ghost!
Then a small red energy canister was thrown to the ground!
It had an "O" symbol on it and was now emitting a dazzling red glow!
With a "clang," the vault door they had just opened slammed shut and locked itself!
The guards’ hearts went cold!
"Isn’t this a barbecue?"
"Boom!"
The small energy canister exploded on the spot, space expanded violently, then collapsed into annihilation!
Forget the vault—the entire mountain was gone!
This small energy canister was one of the energy pods Jiangnan had pulled off Starry Ronin back in the day!
He had stashed a few for later use!
These small pods could not only cut stars, but also shatter them!
Mila and the others hadn’t gone through the front door at all. Wearing invisibility cloaks, they had Starry Ronin bite through the vault, crawled through the hole, and moved the treasures out!
When the guards heard the noise and opened the door to rush in, Lan had already finished loading the treasures and slipped out through the open door!
Then she threw an energy pod to destroy the crime scene!
The whole sequence was smooth as water!
It was just that Starry Ronin hadn’t eaten her fill—if they hadn’t held her back, she would have eaten the whole vault too!
Over at the Desolate River Society, Hope couldn’t swallow this insult. He brought a large group of men and came knocking!
Pushing a small wheelchair, his eyes blazing with fury!
٩(°᷄益°᷅ꐦ)و "Jiangnan! Come out! Come out here!"
Hope’s roar echoed throughout the mountain town!
Then Jiangnan appeared out of nowhere, wearing a fire-breathing dragon onesie pajama, rubbing his sleepy eyes.
He opened his mouth and yawned.
(๑⁼̴ࡇก) "What now? Can’t a guy get a moment’s peace around here?"
Hope: ???
