Chapter 482
This chap just made a Mechanical Holy Garment that looked very impressive. He had better not fall and end up with half his body paralyzed just after entering the arena!
“Ah, it’s nothing, it’s nothing.” Upon hearing that everyone cared so greatly about him, Hong Dali quickly picked himself up from the large pit and laughed. “Aye, aye, I have yet to understand how to work the landing system completely!”
“You rascal.” The Bureau Chief didn’t know whether to cry or laugh. Such a great set of exoskeleton armor was the legendary Mechanical Holy Garment. It was the latest, reformed armor created purely for warfare. It was made by the Heavenly State, created according to the technology developed by Lin Chuyin. The fact that Hong Dali could utilize the Mechanical Holy Garment in such a way was already exceptional. “Good that you’re alright. This set of armor is a lot stronger than those I sent you. Quick, let me take a look!” Even though the Bureau Chief did not understand how much stronger Hong Dali’s armor became, he could tell from the appearance that it had undergone some change.
The appearance of the original Mechanical Holy Garment was originally close to that of an insect as many components were designed according to the structure of an insect.
However, this set of armor instead had an even more of a sci-fi style, which made its appearance closer to that of a human.
“Hehe, don’t get anxious. Regardless, we should celebrate.” Hong Dali grinned broadly. “Light, music! Let’s first dance a part of the Axe Gang dance!”
This rascal created this set of perfect-grade Mechanical Holy Garment that, aside from awaiting the merge with the transformed perfect-grade Granzon to drive it to school, the only thing left was to wear the armor and dance around in it…
After thinking carefully, if a large group of people could dance in the Mechanical Holy Garment like the Axe Gang as shown in the movie “Kungfu,” it would be pretty cool. Of course, if we were to mention “Small Apple,” then it would be even more awesome…
Upon hearing Hong Dali’s words, the Bureau Chief went berserk momentarily. “Rascal, is such a valuable thing used for you to dance around?! Quickly let us take a look at what needs to be improved!”
“Oh, Uncle Chief, you are always so anxious…” Hong Dali groaned as he opened his mask before casually saying, “There are still five sets inside, and they are about the same quality as this one. I’ll gift Uncle Chief with one set for research purposes. As for the remainder, Chuyin will have a set, and Xinxin will have another. Yes, save Sister Nianwei a set, I’ll have a set, one, two, three, four… aye? There seems to be one additional set. I’ll gift it to Sister Xiaoyi!”
Among the six Mechanical Holy Garments, aside from Hong Dali’s, the remaining five were of slightly worse quality. Actually, it was the difference between an original and a mass-produced product, but it was not considered a big problem—the biggest difference was the appearance. Hong Dali was someone who judged people by their appearance and was the most judgmental…
“Dali, there really is one for me?” Tang Muxin’s eyes lit up like stars and she ran towards the warehouse eagerly. “I’ll run there and take a look!”
“Mmm, I’ll take a look too.” Lin Chuyin hastened to catch up.
“I shall not use it for now.” Ling Xiaoyi was a little embarrassed. “Such a valuable thing, plus I have no use for it. I personally am not the type that’s suitable for warfare…”
“Rest assured, rest assured. We are not going a war.” Hong Dali grinned broadly. “Put it on first. When we have the time, let’s go looking for thieves. It will definitely be great to catch a thief with this! Oh right, the password is ‘Dali Creates Miracles.’ Don’t forget that!”
The Bureau Chief said, “Put it on to catch a thief, do you believe I will strangle you to death! The cost to manufacture this was very expensive!” After finishing his sentence, he also ran towards the warehouse as he was afraid that if he did not hurry, the last set would be gifted away by this wastrel…
Afterward, two delicate voices could be heard from within the warehouse. “Dali Creates Miracles!”
Hence, Tang Muxin and Lin Chuyin both donned one a set of Mechanical Holy Garment each and walked out of the warehouse. Together with Hong Dali’s, the three silvery-white mechanical men(women) gleamed so brightly under the sun that it could blind everyone’s 24K gold-plated eyes!
Besides, Hong Dali and the Bureau Chief did not dare to manage the people currently present. This chap could be called as the precious child of the Heavenly State that could definitely not be scolded or hit. Even though Tang Muxin, this lady, was easier to communicate with, the problem lied in the fact that she did not understand much about science and technology. Luckily, there was the extreme technological geek Lin Chuyin present. The Bureau Chief immediately asked her, “Chuyin, what do you think of the numerical index of the various functions of this suit?”
“Mmm, so far, everything seems to be pretty good.” Lin Chuyin’s voice came from within the Mechanical Holy Garment before she said slowly, “Especially the weapons, they look pretty powerful.” As she said that, she raised her arm and said lightly, “High-pressure electric pulse light beam.”
Very quickly, a dazzling strong beam of light was concentrated in her palm. Afterward, a rip could be heard and a beam of blue-white light was shot out violently, bombing the wall of the warehouse and directly creating a hole about the thickness of a small bowl!
“Er, that was a high-pressure electric pulse light beam at 20% power.” After that blast was shot, Lin Chuyin looked at the Bureau Chief and said, “So far, that’s what it looks like.”
“That… That…” The Bureau Chief was agape and tongue-tied. “I don’t remember the weapons on this Mechanical Holy Garment being so impressive?” As he finished his sentence, he hugged the set of Mechanical Holy Garment gifted to him by Hong Dali tightly. “This is a treasure! No, I’ll return now!”
“Aye, Uncle Chief, are you going to leave now?” Hong Dali asked strangely. “You should at least dance a part of the Axe Gang’s dance with us!”
“Rascal, you think everyone is as bored as you?!” The Bureau Chief said sinisterly, “Do you know how important this thing is? Once this thing comes out, guns can possibly become obsolete! During a war, the army will then change its views regarding the combat ability of individual soldiers! As for concrete evaluations of its functions, it will have to wait for the analysis report to come out!”
“Oh…” Hong Dali sniffled. “I hate wars… Then, Uncle Chief, you can continue on with what you were busy with. Continue on!”
The Bureau Chief went to call for a helicopter straightaway. Yet, just as he took a step forward, a large group of reporters were hot on his heels and crowded around after hearing some activity on this side. As John saw the three of them—Hong Dali, Tang Muxin, and Lin Chuyin gleaming under the sun with the suits on, he exclaimed in surprise, “Oh my god! Everyone, take a look at what we just discovered!” He rushed forward as he said that, before asking loudly, “Is it Young Master Dali?”
“Ah, we have actually been discovered!” Hong Dali nodded his head with a grin on his face. “As a mechanical man that wishes to keep his identity secret, you can call me Mr. Young Lord. Hehe!”
A mechanical man unwilling to disclose his identity but still addressed as Young Lord…
Tang Muxin covered her face… Heavens, how was that any different from directly giving them your name?!
John looked at the gleaming suit of armor on Hong Dali and asked urgently, “Mr. Young Lord, is this suit of armor used for filming ‘Holy Warriors of the Goddess’? What’s the rough cost of manufacture of this suit?” The questions he asked were precisely the ones that all the other reporters had in mind. At once, everyone present quietened down and all directed their microphones towards Hong Dali.
“Cost of manufacture?” Hong Dali seemed greatly pressured in answering this question. “Let me do some calculations. It costs 300 million yuan for six sets… Er, 50 million yuan for one set, it’s quite cheap.” *Not bad, not bad, this question was not too difficult for me! *
A mechanical armor worth 50 million yuan!
All the reporters present were completely astonished! As soon as Hong Dali gave his answer, everyone began to discuss at once. “Heavens, a mechanical armor worth 50 million yuan. This chap really isn’t an ordinary wastrel!” “Can this thing really work? It actually looks great.” “No matter how nice it looks, it still can’t possibly be worth 50 million yuan? This thing can only be used to film movies, right?” “What if it has weapons?” “How can such a small suit of armor have weapons. Even if it did, they probably won’t be very powerful, right?”
As everyone secretly discussed among themselves, a reporter with red hair and a tall and big built took a large step forward to interview Hong Dali. He asked loudly, “Nice to meet you Mr. Young Lord. I’m Beck, a reporter from Merika’s ‘World Safety’ website. To address the problem of world peace, may I ask what abilities this Mechanical Holy Garment has? Does it have any formidable weapons?”
Merika’s “World Safety” website was Merika’s largest military science and technology website. It was sufficient to say that if something made it up to the website, it would gather the attention of citizens all over the world. Especially for high technology warfare equipment, it would gather the attention of everyone instantly.
Indeed, as Beck finished his sentence, everyone quietened down again. Everyone was awaiting Hong Dali’s response.
After all, leaking sensitive information about the country’s confidential military affairs was not a small matter. Hence, if it were an ordinary person, he would do his best to conceal the information in the face of such a situation by only telling lies.
Yet, ordinary people were ordinary people, and wastrel Hong was wastrel Hong. They couldn’t be mentioned in the same breath.
Hong Dali answered matter-of-factly, “Ah, this thing’s abilities are huge!” As he said that, he turned his head and glanced around. “Do y’all want me to show you by blowing something up?”
His suggestion brought everyone’s approval and enthusiastic applause could be heard. Everyone wanted to see what this suit of armor worth 50 million yuan could do. Merika’s “World Safety” reporter, Beck, said hurriedly, “Mr. Young Lord, if that really is possible, it would be great. But there doesn’t seem to be anything that can be blown up here…”
“Oh, that’s alright. Whatever I wish to blow up, I’ll blow up!” As Hong Dali said that, he commanded Lin Chuyin, who stood aside. “Chuyin, let’s blow up that warehouse. Hahaha! I want it to be at full power!”
Tang Muxin said in surprise, “Ha?! You’re really blowing it up?”
“Of course.” Hong Dali nodded his head proudly. Wearing the silvery-white Mechanical Holy Garment, Hong Dali looked like a huge silver ingot at the moment. “This is such an attention-grabbing Mechanical Holy Garment. Of course I’ll blow up whatever I wish to blow up!”
“Mmm, alright.” Lin Chuyin had never rejected Hong Dali’s requests. She raised her palms to the same height at once and the high-pressure electric pulse light beam ejector on her palm was directed towards the warehouse that was somewhere into the distance. She said lightly, “High-pressure electric pulse light beam, full power, shoot!”
This time, it was different from what she had previously shown the Bureau Chief.
Previously, it was only 20% of the full power. Yet, it was at full power this time!
