Chapter 1035: Chapter 480: Coming and Going! _3

“Don’t blame me for turning ruthless.”

That voice immediately replied: “We only respect the strong. Someone like you, a naive boy who can’t even guard his weapon, doesn’t deserve our respect.”

“Besides, you’ve killed so many of our people.”

Shen Ye sighed in disappointment.

—-Looks like this month’s “Lending Treasure” repayment will have to be earned by working myself.

He placed his phone on the table and waited silently for ten seconds.

Time’s up.

His mood worsened.

“Mike, are you really here to mediate?” Shen Ye asked.

“I usually handle such matters for everyone, but this time, it’s my fault. I didn’t expect they’d even steal your treasure sword.” Mike desperately tried to appear sincere.

“So what now?” Shen Ye asked.

“I’ve taken up so much of your time and was blind enough to give these guys a chance to target you–that’s on me.”

“Major General, please send me your bank account number.”

“I need to offer a genuine compensation.”

Mike said anxiously.

—-This Major General Shen Ye is way too composed.

Even after his weapon was stolen, he didn’t show a hint of panic or fear.

He must have a backup plan!

No matter whether he wins or loses, what I did was indeed shady.

An apology is warranted.

Mike stole a glance at Shen Ye, only to find that Shen Ye seemed to have come alive, with an expression of radiant energy on his face.

“Bank account? Ah, you weren’t intentional. I’m really sorry.” Shen Ye hesitated.

Mike immediately replied: “Please don’t refuse–”

Before he could finish, Shen Ye had already pushed his phone forward.

The phone screen displayed a bank account number.

“…” Mike.

Mike suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.

Even a bit grateful.

Any problem that can be solved with money is a minor one.

This man is a Major General, owning even a spaceship. Money means nothing to him!

But!

This Major General is willing to accept my money.

What’s this?

This is giving me an exit!

Young and accomplished, with a bright future ahead, and reasonable too.

“Major General Shen,” Mike spoke with a hint of genuine respect in his voice, “I’ll start with 2 billion.”

Shen Ye slowly raised his head to look at him, saying nothing.

2 billion!

Are you kidding me?

Or are you actually serious about 2 billion?

—-That would mean never worrying about what to eat again!

Even spending on games without restraint!

With 2 billion, I could stay home, get the strongest computer, and play whatever I want all day!

Shen Ye took a deep breath, trying hard to calm his excitement.

Mike, being sharp, immediately noticed that Shen Ye’s emotions seemed slightly agitated.

Uh-oh.

The man’s still upset!

After all, the lost treasure sword is priceless and can’t be compensated with money.

There’s also the looming killer pursuit from Angel Graveyard.

2 billion indeed isn’t enough.

Mike gritted his teeth, forced a smile, and said: “Aside from the 2 billion, I’ll personally order a custom mecha for you as a sincere apology.”

“–Would that be acceptable?”

There’s a mecha to be gained!

Shen Ye’s heart thudded in shock, and he could no longer hold back the curve of his lips.

He reached out to pat Mike’s shoulder, saying:

“Mike, you really are a competent mediator. I’ll give you this face.”

Mike let out a huge sigh of relief, quickly pulling out his phone, unlocking the screen, and opening the banking app.

He glanced at the account on Shen Ye’s phone, entering it while saying:

“Major General Shen, I have a few tasks on my side that need experts’ support. Would you consider lending a hand? Pay’s negotiable, of course.”

Shen Ye shook his head, coolly replying: “I have my own matters to attend to.”

—-With 2 billion, who would still go fight life-and-death battles with you?

I’ve never been willing to spend money on drawing cards in games. Every time I saw others’ cards, I envied them to no end.

This time, I’ll truly make up for my lost youth!

Plus those flying mounts!

Plus the titles!

—-Daily takeout! The priciest kind!

“Then forget it.”

Mike said with some regret.

He lowered his head and swiftly operated his phone.

Shen Ye just watched from the side.

—-Mike first called the bank, confirmed, then entered his bank account info on the phone, followed by the amount:

2000000000 yuan.

Shen Ye’s breathing stopped.

Mike tapped “Confirm” on the transfer interface.

Soon after, a password input screen popped up.

One password entry, and the money would be in the account!

Mike skillfully entered the password.

Just as Shen Ye’s joy peaked, a facial recognition screen popped up.

—-The amount’s too high, requiring dual verification.

Not a problem.

The phone camera activated, pointing at the ceiling.

Mike lifted the phone, about to align his face for recognition.

Beep, beep, beep!

Mike glanced at Shen Ye, bewildered.

What’s that sound?

Shen Ye looked at Mike’s stomach, shrugging. “Not from me.”

Beep-beep-beep-beep-beep–

The sound grew sharper.

This time, Mike also realized the source.

It came from his stomach.

BOOM–

A deafening explosion erupted with a dazzling flash.

The entire block melted under scorching heat, then was plowed flat by shockwaves.

From above, looking down.

A mushroom cloud rose slowly.

Wind.

Chaotic destructive energy swirled into a storm, sweeping the land.

Half the city plunged into annihilation.

It took over ten breaths’ time.

Shen Ye stood unscathed in midair.

A faint luminous line of text quietly emerged before him:

“‘Blind Pride”s Truth Suppression remained intact, so you were unharmed.”

Shen Ye paid no attention to the message.

He clutched a phone tightly.

Mike’s phone.

—-The phone had blacked out.

The face recognition process hadn’t been completed when the nuclear blast occurred.

The transfer didn’t go through.

2 billion!

He could’ve had 2 billion, but the explosion prevented the transaction.

The mediator was also dead.

Shen Ye trembled with rage.

“Fei Lun, annihilate them all for me.”

He rasped.

Meanwhile.

In a secret chamber.

The Rain Poison Blade placed on the table suddenly jumped up, transforming into a four-meter-tall red skeleton before everyone’s eyes.

“Ahaha, you’ve angered him–guess what your fate will be now?”

Fei Lun sneered gleefully.

In the next instant.

Its physique began to rapidly expand, shattering the entire building as it grew into a dragon tens of meters high.

“Perish, you damned souls who seek your own demise.”

The destructive dragon spewed flames downwards.

The crowd engulfed in flames disintegrated into ashes instantly.
