Chapter 4098 That old Deng must have gone to buy…!
Somewhere in the far western region of the Empire, on the edge of a star system.
On a semi-abandoned small colony satellite named [B612].
Large numbers of civilians, unable to escape and destined to die of old age on this satellite, now lay prostrate on the ground in terror—the most powerful figure they had ever seen was the tyrannical administrator of this satellite.
But now, that terrifying manager is lying on the ground like a dead dog.
All because a warship even larger than this colony suddenly appeared today and took over this place at an extremely fast pace.
In front of a dilapidated tin shack in the landfill.
A force of about one hundred men in dark gold combat armor is on alert, while another team of ten is debugging the teleportation array.
Soon, a bright light shone from the base array, and a figure wearing a huge cloak slowly walked out.
The guards knelt down silently.
King Ateslia frowned, glanced around, and walked straight into the dilapidated tin shack—according to the information reported back by Hiro Yul, this was where the boy had grown up.
It wasn't unheard of for royal outcasts to be found in extremely harsh places before, but this was the first time that King Atesliya had to make the trip himself.
Despite their doubts, no one dared to investigate at this time.
Inside the tin shack, King Atesliya carefully observed the house. It was clear that no one had lived there for a long time, but the traces of past life were still evident—a moldy and rotten washbasin, insects crawling in the corners, and piles of garbage and waste throughout the house.
[Atesliya] Wang frowned slightly, and the next moment all the clutter in the room was completely dispersed under the precise control of his mental power.
An antique smart computer, about the size of a football, was quietly half-buried in the mud... more likely, it wasn't buried, but rather weighed down by years of accumulated junk.
"Encrypted messages from the royal family?"
After examining the antique computer, a strange light flashed in King Atesliya's eyes. The backup energy inside had been well hidden, but it could only be activated with the unique spiritual power of royalty.
King Atesliya decisively initiated the process.
The optical computer restarted and projected the image.
What came into view before King Atesliya was the image of a young man with short, dark green hair... Although young, his gaze was as deep as the starry sky.
[Ateslia] King took a deep breath, silently took a step, then pressed his fist against the ground and knelt down on one knee.
It really is the founder of [Abriel]: [King Kleub]!
In the video, King Klub silently gazes ahead, but Atesliya knows that this is just a pre-recorded video, but the algorithm of the quantum computer can make it look almost indistinguishable from a real-time conversation.
"Atesleia?"
“It is I,” Artesliu replied respectfully.
The young man smiled slightly, "I didn't expect it to be you who personally found your way here. I thought I would never be found... That child, in the end, you still found him."
"That child has awakened royal power." [Ateslia] kept the information as brief as possible, "...it's a very high-level emblem."
The image of the young man suddenly fell silent. If Ateslia were bold enough to look up at this moment, he would actually be able to see that the young man in the image was in a state similar to "mental dementia".
The antique computer was also buzzing at this moment.
After a long pause, the young man spoke again, “...Yes, he is a good boy, a dutiful son. I didn’t intend for him to come into your lives.”
[Ateslia] said softly, "That child possesses such talent; it was only a matter of time before it was discovered. However, I'm very curious about this child's true identity..."
His fear was that this child wasn't just a grandson...
The young-looking King Klub, however, had a weathered face and slowly said, "The void is vast, so vast that even I sometimes feel insignificant. Back then... after I left, I went deep into the third node and encountered a terrifying fellow."
Through King Krypton's narration, Ateslia quickly learned what had happened back then—to his shock, King Krypton had actually encountered a terrifying Void Asura!
In the battle that completely destroyed a secret realm of the third node, the founder of [King Klub], [God Destroyer Armor], was completely paralyzed. In the end, he managed to escape with his life by tearing open space and hiding in the turbulence.
However, the [Void Asura] seemed to have been injured as a result, so there was no further pursuit.
What follows is a very clichéd and melodramatic plot.
The founder of the empire, severely wounded, ended up on this desolate colony satellite... Due to the severity of his injuries, he even suffered a brief period of amnesia.
During this period of amnesia, King Klub fell in love with a scavenging woman. Like the other scavengers living in this place, he quickly formed a family and had children.
They have been living on.
However, a sudden outbreak of disease led to the complete destruction of this family, leaving only King Klub and his infant grandson—the boy who awakened the royal crest.
Overwhelmed by grief, the shock caused King Klub to regain some of his memories—he did not choose to return to the royal court at this time, but instead remained on this colony, raising his infant grandson.
King Kreub only left after the child had developed the ability to live independently—so many years have passed, and one of the God-Slaying Armors he created has also completed its own repair.
"I don't want this child to be caught up in the endless royal infighting," King Klub said calmly. "But if fate drags him into this vortex, I have nothing to say. So I left this message. Take good care of this child and don't let him suffer too much harm."
"The royal family needs you!" [Atesliya] said hastily. "We have been waiting for your return."
“We must always walk this path.” King Kleub’s figure faded away. “Moreover, in that battle, I already saw the way…”
"Father!!"
The ancient quantum computer seemed to have burned out, falling directly to the ground, its light dim and lifeless.
……
"Your Highness?"
King Ateslia's expression was solemn... yet there seemed to be a hint of relief in his solemnity as he walked out of the tin hut.
Fortunately, they really are just third-generation grandchildren.
The worst fears didn't come true—thankfully, no emotionless "brother" appeared out of nowhere.
“Re-plan this satellite.” King Atesliya walked straight toward the teleportation array. “Also, designate this area as a key protected zone, strictly prohibiting anyone from entering… and dispatch a planetary force to garrison a nearby planet.”
The sound faded away, and the person had already stepped into the teleportation array.
……
……
"Father actually...saw the road?"
If that's the case, no wonder he's unwilling to go back... He wouldn't want to either!
King Atesliya walked silently through the royal court's private office, his brow furrowed. The appearance of Wilderness was not some conspiracy; after his personal confirmation, it was indeed just a coincidence—albeit at an extremely bizarre time.
Currently, information about [Wild] is completely confidential... and the only person who knows about it from beginning to end is Hiro Yul.
King Atesliya has no intention of revealing Wilderness's identity in the near future.
This was a reception room. King Atesliya paused at the door before pushing it open and entering.
The Black Reaper, who had been sitting quietly, instantly stood up and bowed, "Your Highness!"
[Ateslia] nodded to Hiro Yul, then turned his gaze to the baseball cap boy who was eating cake with a curious look in his eyes, his silver hair quite eye-catching.
Is this... really a member of the royal family?
A strange sense of déjà vu arose in King Ateslia's mind, but since the royal crest had awakened and there was information left by King Klub, there was no need to prove anything further.
"Your name is Huang?" King Atesliya tried to put on a kind smile as he approached.
The boy, [Wild], blinked, his long, white eyelashes flashing. "Uncle! You're my uncle?!"
—This is just a child who has lived on a desolate satellite since childhood…
“Yes.” King Atesliya’s expression remained unchanged. “Child, you have suffered these past years. Now that we have found you, from now on…”
"Uncle!! I'm so miserable!" The young man [Huang] pounced on him, hugging his leg. "That old man... no, that dead old man ran away without a word. He must have renege on his debt when I bought sex. He was probably beaten to death and abandoned me! I'm so miserable!!"
"...Nonsense!" King Ateslia instantly broke down, "K...your grandfather couldn't possibly be that kind of person!"
How could the pioneers and founders of a great empire possibly buy... and in such a desolate place?
No, King Kleub once suffered from amnesia, so it's hard to say...
King Atesliya, whose heart was in turmoil, rubbed his temples and tried to comfort him, saying, "Child, now that you have returned, you don't need to worry about your future. I will make arrangements for you. However, for some reasons, I cannot announce your situation to the public for the time being."
“I understand.” The boy [Wild] said obediently, “Brother Hiro said that my identity is very sensitive. Actually, I’ve been hesitant about coming to [Marindo]. I know that someone like me can’t be seen in the light… but I really want to see my blood relatives. I’ve only had my grandfather since I was little, I… I won’t make things difficult for my uncle, will I?”
Upon hearing this, Hiro Yul's gaze faltered slightly.
No... this kid wasn't like this the whole way here!
Good tea...
King Atesliya gently patted the boy Wilderness's shoulder. "I will let you see him, and I promise you it won't be long. However, you've just returned and don't understand many things. I will arrange for you to enter the Royal Academy, where you will need to learn some knowledge. During this time, I will also have Hiro protect you, since he was the one who found you, and you are already familiar with him."
"That's wonderful!" The young man [Wild] nodded happily. "I can't sleep without Brother Hiro here!"
"hehe."
King Ateslia was somewhat amused.
The Black Reaper remained silent.
"Alright, go and settle in first." King Atesliya smiled slightly. "I have official business to attend to today, I'll come see you tonight."
“Okay, Uncle, I understand.” The boy [Huang] nodded. “I will take good care of myself.”
King Atesliya glanced at Hero indifferently, and Hero understood, so he directly took the boy Wilderness and left.
……
……
A massive starship, resembling a cathedral, slowly descended, instantly causing a tremor in the First District's docking port.
"Who is that? What a grand entrance..."
"You don't know that? The president of the science department at [Void Bank], that terrifying man who can cripple the empire's economy with just a single sentence!"
"hiss……"
Of course, the president's words could indeed cripple the empire's economy for a time, but this position of president is probably his last – after all, above the president is the board of directors, who truly holds power in the Void Bank.
On the palace's observation deck, Sheryl, dressed in a pink dress, was gazing at the harbor where the Marindo was moored.
"Miss Sheryl."
"Hello, Lord Francis."
Facing the high-ranking executives of the Void Bank, who held terrifying status and power, the Galaxy Fairy showed no arrogance whatsoever... After all, when facing a sugar daddy, it's only natural to be obsequious and not be ashamed.
“Miss Sheryl must have been to Marindo many times before,” Francis said casually. “What do you think of this place?”
"It's an unforgettable place," Sheryl replied formally. "There are many enthusiastic fans here who love me."
Francis smiled slightly. "Let's go, the landing ship should be ready."
Miss Shirley nodded and walked alongside Francis—a moment that Miss Xizi secretly captured on camera.
The next step is to quietly sell it to online paparazzi, generate public opinion, hype it up, and raise its value.
Ms. Xizi is already very familiar with this process.
Although Miss Sheryl has excellent works and is treated with respect wherever she goes... who wouldn't like a talisman like Francis, which is as gold-plated as gold?
There's no need for Miss Sherry to actually have anything happen between her and President Francis; just having this scene appear in the public eye is enough.
Miss Xizi is truly determined to serve Miss Shirley, and she's extremely worried about her right now.
The one who came to greet them was Minister Babylon, one of the Imperial Chancellors.
Francis's status was enough to make the Imperial Court take him very seriously.
As for the [Galaxy Fairy], it was just a side effect.
Lord Papillon has been very busy lately, welcoming one important figure after another whose mere presence could shake the Four Great Sides.
"I wonder if Lord Francis has any plans for tonight?" Lord [Babilon] asked with a smile. "I am hosting a banquet at my residence tonight to welcome you and give you a proper welcome."
“Then I’ll have to trouble you.” Francis smiled calmly and said directly, “I will be attending with Miss Sheryl.”
Upon hearing this, Sheryl did not react at all—even though her opinion was not asked in the first place.
……
……
Zone 1, a hotel.
The doorman respectfully presented an invitation, which Bai Zhi then handed to Boss Luo.
It was sent by Princess Anle, inviting Boss Luo to be her companion at a banquet that evening. Someone will come to pick him up when the time comes.
Looking at Bai Zhi, who was twisting the hem of her clothes, Boss Luo smiled slightly and said, "Bai Zhi, go and have You Ye prepare an evening dress for you."
"Huh?" Little Baizhi pointed to herself in surprise.
Boss Luo casually said, "Li Guo knows you, so you can come with me tonight. After all, we're in the middle of an operation, so it's better to keep other people out of the spotlight."
"Okay, okay!" Bai Zhi nodded quickly.
But something just doesn't feel right... Oh my god, shouldn't it be Miss Yuya accompanying the master? If all else fails, there's always Miss Ryu!
—Why is it me?
