Chapter 1130: Jody and Lina!
The moment Yue Zhong acted, the remaining giants in Adenia Town were killed quickly.
Even if he was fighting with his mechanical makeshift limbs, the lower-leveled Type 7 giants were not his match.
After wiping them out, the town people began to stream back into their homes under the guidance of the mayor.
Within the mayor's home, the mayor, Visni greeted Yue Zhong respectfully, "Mr. Yue Zhong, thank you for acting to save us. This is a small token of appreciation, please accept it."
After those words, the soldiers beside brought out a number of chests, revealing piles of gold that could turn a man blind with greed.
When Aisha and Xi Jie saw the gold in the chests, their breathing became haggard and their eyes shone with desire. They had never seen such wealth in all their lives.
Yue Zhong swept a look at the chests, grinning slightly, and with a wave of his hands, a bout of energy whisked them all up, channeling them into his storage ring.
He waved his hands once more, as he gathered a few thousand coins, forming 2 huge piles in front of Aisha and Xi Jie each, "These are yours. You guys had done quite a lot for the town as well."
To Yue Zhong, the gold was not of much use, after all, he did not plan on settling down here.
Xi Jie immediately grabbed the fortune in front of her, her eyes flashing with delight, as she laughed out in excitement, "Oh my God!!! I'm rich!!! Sis Aisha!!! I'm rich!!! Haha!!"
Aisha looked at her own pile, her eyes also harboring hope. However, she controlled her own greed, as she spoke to Yue Zhong, "Yue Zhong, I hope to make use of the gold to purchase the set of equipment you loaned us earlier."
The equipment was a powerful mech armor, and she was in love with it. If she could have such a suit, then she was invincible within the town.
Visni also swiftly spoke up, "Mr. Yue Zhong, I also hope to purchase a few sets of equipment from you. Please state a price, and Adenia Town will do its best to fulfill your requirements."
The Great God World was truly cruel, with numerous savage beasts and all sorts of monsters. One could only feel safe with a strong backing or capital.
Yue Zhong was able to allow those 2 Type 3 experts kill Type 6 giants. That equipment was extremely alluring to Visni, if he could get his hands on a few, their town would be bolstered by a lot.
Yue Zhong rejected it instantly, "I'm afraid not, I only have about 10 of that equipment."
Hearing those words, Aisha and Visni had a disappointed look.
Visni then spoke, "Since that's the case, forget it. However, I have one more request that I hope Mr. Yue Zhong might be so kind as to agree."
Yue Zhong arched his brows, "What is it?"
This time, Yue Zhong had killed off the giants in the town, and one of the more important reasons was that there were Type 8 giants among the invaders. He could hunt Type 8 giants to power up, and it was not too much of a trouble for him, that was why he was willing to act. If he was requested to stay in the town to guard them over a long period, he was not willing.
There was an expectant look on Visni's face, "Mr. Yue Zhong, since you already defeated the invading giants, we should not be bothering you further. However, these giants are a group that band together and are incredibly vicious. Since so many of them had died here, there would be even more giants coming to attack us. We hope that you can stay here to help us."
If they had such an expert protecting Adenia Town, then they were sure to be safe.
Yue Zhong frowned, and rejected coldly, "Sorry, I'm just passing by. I will be leaving soon. I can't stay long. You had better evacuate the people towards the capital. They should send men to protect you right?"
Yue Zhong had too much on his hands back on Earth, and he would not stay in this small town to be a bodyguard.
Hearing those cold words, everyone's face fell. Without him, there was no way they could defend against any of the giants.
Visni had a perplexed look, as he asked, "Mr. Yue Zhong, will you reconsider?"
If the inhabitants of the town had to move, then most of them would lose a lot of their assets. Along the way to the capital, it was not as if the route was entirely safe. If there were other man-eating species, then they would be at risk of being wiped out too.
Yue Zhong stood up to walk out, "I've made my decision. Goodbye, Mayor Visni."
Seeing Yue Zhong leave, Aisha and Xi Jie quickly took up their gold and made to leave, chasing after him.
Aisha looked at Yue Zhong, her eyes flashing with a strange look as she asked, "Yue Zhong, are you really not staying?"
Yue Zhong had saved her life and was the hero of Adenia Town. In her heart, she was already starting to have feelings for him.
He replied solemnly, "No, I have things I need to do."
She fell into silent thoughts at that.
"Ah! That's…!"
Just then, Yue Zhong lifted his head abruptly and looked toward the distance, his eyes flashing strangely.
In the skies, there was a fleet of 12 battleships that were flying towards them, each of them strange in shape, and had different sizes.
Among them, 10 of them were more than a thousand meters long and had numerous particle cannons. They were surrounding 2 others which were over tens of thousands of meters long, which had a main cannon each. The main cannon was over 30m large in diameter, carved with strange runes, and exuded a powerful pressure.
The direction of the 12 battleships was Adenia Town. They were flying fairly fast, at over 3 times the speed of sound, and were soon above the town itself.
The battleships then opened their doors, revealing hundreds of human soldiers who were equipped with mech armor and wielding particle cannons.
These soldiers were flanking 2 young men and women, who were being treated in high esteem, as well as guarded by over 30 powerful experts in mech armor. They soared out on a mechanical platform, looking elegant and noble, with a hint of pride in their bearing.
They were both sporting golden hair, their bodies and looks exquisite. The female had an alluring figure, and her skin was fair and smooth, with a beautiful face.
There was a rumbling voice that announced their arrival, "The great Prince Jody and Princess Lina have arrived!"
Once the voice sounded, Visni immediately came out of the mayor's house, staring at the 2 esteemed royalty with a look of idolization and excitement on his face. He fell to his knees and bowed, as he spoke in a clear voice, "Visni greets His Highness and Her Highness. For the both of you to grace Adenia Town with your presence, it is our eternal pleasure and honor. Long live Sirius Empire!!"
"Long live the great Holy Sirius Empire!!"
"The Emperor did not abandon us!!"
"This is great, the great Emperor did not abandon us!"
"Long live the great Holy Sirius Empire!!"
"..."
Hearing that voice, all the survivors of Adenia Town looked up at the 2 royals that had arrived, their eyes filled with the same fervor and excitement.
At this critical moment, when the danger has yet to pass, the Prince and Princess had actually visited, which gave the inhabitants of the town higher morale, and their favorable impression of the royal family increased.
Yue Zhong took a look at them, his eyes filled with a strange glint, "Are they from the Sirius Empire then? Good timing."
He had originally intended to head to the capital to find the emperor, to enquire about the point where the worlds met. If he could gain the information from the 2 royalty in front of him, then he had no need to head there.
Jody descended from the sky, asking Visni with somewhat an urgent tone, "Visni, where is the hero that dealt with those Man-eating Giants?"
In Adenia Town, there was equipment capable of long distance communication. In fact, every town and city of the Holy Sirius Empire had some form of telecommunication between them. It was just that only the higher-ups could utilize them.
The moment Jody and his entourage had heard of the events in Adenia Town, they had rushed over, in order to meet with the powerhouse who had killed the giants.
Visni was slightly taken aback, and felt bitter until he turned and saw Yue Zhong walking over. Overjoyed, he pointed to him, "Your Highness, it is him who had killed the invaders and protected us! He is called Yue Zhong!"
His words came out, and everyone swiveled to look at Yue Zhong, their eyes filled with respect.
Even Princess Lina had a curious gaze as she looked at Yue Zhong carefully.
