Ready

Two hundred billion yuan has arrived! He instantly became the richest man in the country, and the national treasury is about to explode!

Lin Yuan's words were nonchalant.

Yet they were like a bucket of cold water, dousing the flames of excitement that had just ignited within Qin Pojun.

"Enough? Firewood?"

Qin Pojun's single eye blinked; for a moment, his brain, which was comparable to a supercomputer, actually crashed.

He wanted to say, how could this possibly be enough!

Do you know how significant your strategic importance is now?

Do you know that you are now the precious treasure of the entire Dragon Country?

However, looking at Lin Yuan's calm expression, and then at the nearby Agatha, who had a cold aura but clearly deferred to Lin Yuan.

Qin Pojun swallowed all the words at the tip of his tongue back down.

He knew.

He couldn't stop him.

This man's decisions... forget about him, even if the Martial God came in person, he would probably only be able to give a few helpless instructions like before.

"Then... then you must be careful!"

After holding it in for a long time, Qin Pojun could only squeeze out such a pale and weak sentence.

"Mm."

Lin Yuan nodded in response.

He turned, preparing to leave this pure white hall that he felt was a bit blinding.

Just then.

"Beep beep beep—!!!"

The military communicator on Qin Pojun's wrist suddenly emitted a sharp, ear-piercing, frantic buzzing sound that was even more intense than the highest-level alarm!

The sound was so shrill that the entire hall shook with it.

Qin Pojun was startled, thinking those bastards from White Eagle Country had pulled some other stunt.

He abruptly raised his wrist.

When he saw the information popping up on the communicator's screen.

His entire being seemed to be hit by a paralysis spell, instantly freezing in place.

That single eye stared fixedly at the short message sent by the Dragon Country's Supreme Finance Department, which was marked in red and bold, followed by a string of exclamation marks.

[General! The money! It's arrived!!!]

[202 billion Alliance Credits! Not a cent less! Our account... is going to explode!!!]

"..."

Qin Pojun's breathing stopped.

At this moment, his brain went completely blank.

202 billion... has arrived?

So fast?!

The next second.

"Haha..."

"Hahahahahahahahahaha—!!!"

A world-shaking wild laugh, a hundred times more exaggerated than Mike Jason's madness, erupted from Qin Pojun's throat!

He laughed so hard he leaned back and forth, and tears even streamed out!

He grabbed a Longxiang Army Captain nearby who hadn't had time to evacuate yet, his strength so great he almost broke the man's bones!

"It's here! It's all fucking here!"

"I've never seen so much money in my life! Hahaha!"

"Refreshing! It's so damn refreshing!"

He was like a madman who had won a five-million-dollar lottery, roaring incoherently; the long-suppressed grievance was entirely transformed into the boundless pleasure of triumph at this moment!

Agatha's ice-blue eyes looked at the crazed Qin Pojun, and she frowned slightly but did not speak.

Lin Yuan also stopped and looked back.

He could understand Qin Pojun's excitement.

This sum of money, for any country, was a massive amount sufficient to change the nation's destiny.

With this money, the Dragon Country could raise another ace legion at the Demon Suppressing Pass, armed to the teeth!

"Cough cough... General... General! Calm down!"

The Captain he was holding turned purple in the face, desperately patting his arm.

Only then did Qin Pojun react and release his grip, but the look of wild joy on his face had not diminished in the slightest.

He rushed to Lin Yuan in three steps, his face flushed with excitement.

"Your Excellency! The money is here! Those bastards from White Eagle Country sent the money!"

"The Command Center just sent the highest order! From now on, your authority in the Dragon Country military is equal to that of the Martial God! Whatever resources or intelligence you need, the entire Dragon Country will give its all for you!"

This was the true attitude of the Dragon Country's high-level leadership!

A possessor of the Primordial Chaos Sacred Body, a supreme existence destined to suppress an era in the future—his value could not be measured by a mere 200 billion!

Lin Yuan was not surprised by this.

He simply nodded: "Understood."

With that, he prepared to continue leaving.

"Your Excellency Lin Yuan."

Agatha's voice rang out again.

She walked up to Lin Yuan, her ice-sculpted face still cold, but her movements were very swift.

She flipped her wrist.

A palm-sized silver-white shuttle model, its design full of futuristic sci-fi aesthetic, appeared in her palm.

"This is the 'light chaser', the Alliance's top-tier Single-person Exploration Ship. It is equipped with a Space Curvature Engine and a Stealth Field, capable of resisting ninety percent of the Energy Annihilation Storms on the periphery of the Sea of Annihilation."

She handed the model to Lin Yuan.

"It will take you to the safe boundary of the Sea of Annihilation."

"Furthermore..."

At Agatha's fingertips, a feather-like metal badge appeared, emitting a faint silver light.

"This is my personal token. Inject energy into it, and I will be able to sense your location."

"If... if you find any clues about Avrora, please be sure to notify me immediately."

By the end, a trace of indiscernible pleading had entered her cold voice.

Lin Yuan took the shuttle model and the badge.

He didn't say much.

He simply tossed the 'light chaser' model into the air.

Buzz—

The palm-sized model expanded rapidly in mid-air!

In just a few seconds, it turned into a thirty-meter-long silver-white shuttle, its entire body shimmering with metallic luster and filled with streamlined beauty!

It hovered quietly in mid-air, the energy fluctuations emitted from the hull even causing slight ripples in the surrounding space.

The hatch slid open silently.

Revealing a high-tech cockpit inside.

Lin Yuan didn't even look back at Qin Pojun and Agatha; with one step, his figure appeared before the hatch.

"Your Excellency!"

Looking at the departing Lin Yuan, Qin Pojun ultimately couldn't help but shout once more.

"Please... take care!"

Lin Yuan's footsteps paused for a moment.

He didn't turn around.

He only left behind a flat sentence.

"Tell logistics to be ready to receive new 'firewood'."

As the words fell.

His figure had already disappeared inside the hatch.

The next second.

Buzz—!!!

The tail of the 'light chaser' emitted brilliant blue flames.

There was no delay or acceleration process.

It just flickered slightly.

Then it vanished instantly from the spot, as if it had never existed.

Leaving behind a bewildered Qin Pojun and a complex-looking Agatha.

New... firewood?

Qin Pojun was stunned for a long time before he suddenly reacted.

A terrifying light instantly erupted within his single eye!

His Excellency means... he's going to the Sea of Annihilation this time and bringing back 'local specialties' too?!
