Chapter 852 - Giving Anything In Its Possession (2/2)
Last time, it was miserly in giving out a few hundred Merit Points, but this time, it was rather generous.
Sir System ignored Fang Ning’s reaction and replied, “Great, I shall retrieve it.”
Fang Ning quickly interrupted, “Didn’t you just mention ‘Safety first’ and wanting to destroy it?”
“Rubbish, a wise man once said that as long as there’s a profit of 300 percent, there is not a crime in which a capitalist will not commit, even at the risk of being hanged. Now, not only are we getting three times the profit, it’s unlimited times! Of course, I’m willing to take the risk! In the end, the worst outcome will be to let it escape instead of us losing our lives,” Sir System asserted.
“Eh, it’s quite timely of you to quote Karl Marx…” Fang Ning had nothing else to say.
In spite of this, Fang Ning had the feeling that something was off. He could not pinpoint what it was that seemed wrong and because of that, he could only let Sir System take the lead.
Meanwhile, the small sword turned back into the miniature green dragon with a yellow silk cloth clutched between its claws.
That was the Four Symbols Sealing Formation Map given by Tianjing Fawang the last time. It was used to seal demons and devils.
From the looks of it now, it was the appropriate solution to the problem.
Yet, Sir System’s method was not just limited to this.
In order to obtain those unlimited profits, Sir System had brought all of its hidden methods to the table.
The miniature green dragon flashed and following that, miniature fire, white, yellow and blue dragons appeared…
“Are you going to use them as gourd dragons?” Fang Ning could not help himself but mocked the System.
“Enough of your nonsense, don’t you disturb me from getting rich…” Sir System retorted.
The five dragons stealthily approached the black core situated three kilometers beneath them.
Fang Ning could not see the target’s location, yet he could guess that Sir System was trying to plan an ambush from the dragons’ actions.
He could only hope that Sir System was successful in its attempt, unlike Jingke who failed his mission just as he was about to succeed.
Nevertheless, reality proved that his worries were unnecessary.
The Heavenly Axiom of Mars which just evolved into a self-conscious state still was not that smart.
It could be that while it was nurtured by the Lunar Devils, it was infused with an egoistic characteristic which made it complacent and lacked defenses.
When the five dragons were ten meters away from the core, there was no reaction from it.
If Fang Ning noticed this, he would suspect whether it was a trap.
This was the Heavenly Axiom’s core they were talking about, so how could it not have any sort of protection? Was this a joke?
However, that was the truth.
The miniature green dragon tossed the yellow cloth and the other four dragons gathered at each of the four corners respectively.
Before it could react, this Heavenly Axiom’s core had already fallen into the enemy’s hands.
In the next moment, the defenseless core had entered the System Preservation Area…
Fang Ning could even see the hot steam around it…
“This, this is so much easier than I thought!” Fang Ning was appalled and could not believe his eyes.
Normally, there would be three hundred rounds of fights and the Earthen Dragon would arrive as a reinforcement before they could acquire the core.
“Hmph, what do you know? It looks effortless on the outside but it’s taxing on the inside. A wise man once said that the best fighter often has nothing outstanding to show. In order to achieve this, I had used up a lot of resources. Just by infiltrating the area, I have already exhausted much energy to cover the traces. If I wasn’t an incarnation of the Maxim, it wouldn’t have been so easy for me to approach the core,” Sir System explained.
“Alright, you don’t have to elaborate any further.” Fang Ning rushed towards the System and made a gesture as if he was holding a dog’s mouth shut. “Now I understand. Earlier, when the Axiom Daddy promised that he’ll give anything in its possession, have you ever wondered if he was now broke?”
“…” If Sir System had a corporeal form, it would have displayed a wide-eyed expression.
