225: Chapter 225 Celebrity Meng Po, Inquiry and Compilation

Tianshen Group was originally a Genetic Serum company.

Later, because of life no. 1, it leaped to become the largest pharmaceutical company in the Dragon Kingdom.

It even developed famous serums like Mengpo Soup.

However!

As humanity entered the sea of stars, research into serums slowed down.

Consequently, Tianshen Group began to focus on selling serums like Mengpo Soup.

Because with the birth of Level 1 Life Forms and non-Level 1 Life Forms, the gap in human lifespan increased and the social wealth gap expanded, the social demand for this kind of serum grew larger and larger.

And Jiang Xiaoran also slowly grew from an initial intern promoter of Mengpo Soup into a professional promoter.

She even had her own exclusive Mengpo Soup franchise store.

Because her service was the most popular, her exclusive Mengpo Soup store became the best-performing offline store for Tianshen Group.

Her fame was not small in the entire online world of Earth.

For this woman in her seventies with white hair and wrinkles crawling over her face, young netizens affectionately called her Mengpo.

Although many managers of Mengpo Soup franchise stores called themselves Mengpo, only Jiang Xiaoran was voted as the one who most resembled Mengpo, gaining hundreds of millions of fans across the internet.

However...

On her social media, her motto was strikingly written: 'I am probably already dead.'

When Jiang Chen took the network receiver handed over by Xue Yao, logged onto the internet, and saw the motto under Jiang Xiaoran's hundreds of millions of fans, he couldn't help but frown.

"This girl, why did she write such an unlucky phrase for herself?"

Jiang Chen put down the network receiver; the form of this receiver was like a hairpin, and with a light press, it would project a high-definition virtual screen. The interface was similar to the Weibo of many years ago, but the hardware was already rich and colorful.

Some people had their network receivers customized as ballpoint pens, lighters, or plastic rods, while Xue Yao had hers customized as a hairpin.

Xue Yao shrugged: "I don't know either. Maybe she's a bit depressed now. Her parents have already passed away from illness, and she's already in her seventies. For her, the remaining fifty-plus years might just feel like being dead."

Jiang Chen fell silent for a moment; so his uncle and aunt had already passed away.

He asked, "Where is Xiaoran's franchise store?"

"No. 809, 28th Mengpo Street, Zhongsha City."

Xue Yao finished answering.

After pouring the last cup of yellow wine, Jiang Chen stood up, faced the tomb of Qin Guohua and his wife, and said, "Father-in-law, mother-in-law, rest easy in the afterlife. I will take good care of Xue Yao, Qiu Zhi, and Haipeng."

"Every year from now on, I will bring them to visit you together."

He pressed his palms together and bowed.

"Mom, Dad." Xue Yao also stood up, wanting to say something, but in the end, her guilt made her burst into tears, unable to speak.

Jiang Chen eventually left with Xue Yao.

When the small fishing boat carrying them arrived at the outskirts of Zhongsha City, a large number of strange aircraft appeared in the surrounding airspace, flying without any pattern and crashing about recklessly.

One exceptionally confident aircraft, shaped like a disk, crashed directly into a Horse Terracotta Warriors; the Horse Terracotta Warriors was fine, but the aircraft plummeted straight down and exploded.

"Woohoo~ Old Wang is dead! Haha!"

"That's awesome! What kind of aircraft is that? A flying horse?"

"Damn, that's so cool. Should we snatch it and play with it?"

Many aircraft appeared around them; they seemed to be playing aerial drag racing. Seeing someone die didn't bother them; instead, they looked excited and even set their sights on Jiang Chen's small fishing boat.

Jiang Chen frowned: "Why is it so chaotic?"

"There's no other way. The main forces have already migrated to outer planets. Anyone with even a bit of ability is unwilling to stay on Earth. After all, the resources on Earth are limited."

Xue Yao shook her head.

With the migration of the main forces, the outer districts had become very chaotic, except for the main city area.

Those people playing with aircraft just now were likely a group of street punks.

It's just that the street punks of the past played with 'Ghost Fire' scooters, looking for the Yellow Springs on the highways.

Now, the street punks play with aircraft, looking for the road to the Yellow Springs in the sky.

And look.

One just died.

...

Jiang Chen was speechless.

He steered the small fishing boat into the main city area.

The main city area was slightly better, with aerial police patrolling.

A policewoman, flying a ship with rabbit ears on top, blocked Jiang Chen's path and sent a radio message.

[Fishing boat pearl river 888, please stop for a routine check.]

"A check? Alright."

Jiang Chen sent his warship credentials to the other party.

It showed that he belonged to the four great aircraft carriers—Dragon Cry, Dragon God, Dragon Soul, and Sister Li—and was a Division-level warship, on the same level as a Cruiser.

However!

These were credentials from many years ago.

The current Luan Bird Aerospace Carrier already had a completely new organizational structure.

Therefore, the policewoman did not find Jiang Chen's credentials.

She pulled the small fishing boat over to the side and then said:

[Sorry, Mr. Jiang, the four major aircraft carriers you mentioned are from decades ago. I'm not sure if these credentials are real. Please wait a moment while I check again!]

With her authority, she could only access the current organizational records and couldn't find the old ones.

So she applied to her superiors to query the historical records.

"Is this really a warship from fifty years ago?"

The policewoman muttered to herself, unable to help but take another look at the small fishing boat. This design looked like it came from the Mars Base no matter how you looked at it.

"Alright."

Jiang Chen stayed in the current airspace.

Beside him, Xue Yao sat in the co-pilot seat and smiled: "Is it hard? Even your credentials can't be found."

"Yes, times have changed," Jiang Chen smiled slightly. "But what belongs to us, we must take back."

"Hmm?"

Xue Yao raised an eyebrow.

Jiang Chen pinched Xue Yao's nose: "I remember you used to often read books on how to command an Aerospace Carrier. Now that the Luan Bird has officially entered service, don't you have any thoughts about it?"

"The Luan Bird?"

Xue Yao gave a bitter smile. The current General Wei was a genuine peak Level 2 Lifeform, even more powerful than the exceptionally talented Haipeng. She had only just become a Level 2 Lifeform and couldn't possibly compete with him. In the end, she had just been too young back then.

Just as the two were talking.

The policewoman had already sent the information back to the Air Police Headquarters.

In less than a minute.

Headquarters sent her back a message.

[Reply to Air Police 9900: Fishing boat pearl river 888 is the only Division-level warship from fifty years ago that simultaneously held credentials for all four major aircraft carriers. The credentials are authentic.]

[Additionally, please report its location to headquarters in real-time. The Chief wants to meet him.]

The policewoman was shocked!

These credentials were actually real.

"Were Division-level warships from fifty years ago already this impressive?"

The policewoman was twenty-seven years old this year and still found it hard to believe that this was a warship from fifty years ago, especially with that fishing boat design.

And those horses—are they Mecha Horses?

She didn't seem to have seen similar mecha from any mecha brand.

It was too sci-fi.

The policewoman didn't have time to think further; she immediately stepped forward and gave Jiang Chen a salute.

"Sorry, Sir! The information has been verified. My apologies for the interruption!"
