Chapter 227: A Drop in the Bucket
Luo Yan opened the long black box, only to see a knife lying inside.
The scabbard was simple and plain.
But the handle was exceptionally exquisite.
The black handle of the knife is decorated with a coiled five-clawed dragon, and each scale on the dragon’s body is clearly visible.
Luo Yan pulled out the knife, and saw that the blade was shining with a cold light, making a clear and crisp sound when flicked with the finger, like water trickling over pebbles.
He tested it and felt that the long knife was heavy, with a broad back and a sharp edge.
Luo Yan was very satisfied with both the feel and the design of the knife.
By using a knife instead of a sword, Luo Yan could create a distance between his two identities.
At this moment, he caught sight of a note inside the black box.
[Heavy Weapon: Ring Dragon]
[Features: Sharp, durable, can withstand high temperatures and extreme cold, a deadly blade. By using it in battle, you can build up strength, and when the dragon’s eyes flash with golden light, you can unleash ‘Long Wei’.]
After reading the note.
Luo Yan felt more satisfied.
Put the long sword ‘Ring Dragon’ into the scabbard.
Luo Yan then went to carefully look at the mecha.
There was also a ‘manual’ attached to the small mecha.
After finishing reading it.
Following the instructions, Luo Yan first entered his biological features.
This way, his information was recorded in the mecha’s biological lock.
In the future, only he could activate the mecha.
Then Luo Yan tried to use the mecha.
Small mechas are different from regular mechas. They don’t have a cockpit or a panoramic view window.
When in use, people are like embedded in the mecha, then controlling it through the ’empathy system’.
Quickly.
This small mecha stood up.
Luo Yan tried to make some movements, all of which were achievable with almost no delay.
He used the ‘eye tracking’ function to open the weapon list of the mecha on a visual window. The small mecha had a small launch bay at the back, capable of firing six incendiary bombs for firepower coverage.
A small rapid-fire machine gun with a rate of 800 rounds per minute is installed on the wrist armor of the left arm.
In addition, the armor on the left arm can unfold to form a round arm shield.
Of course, this is a small shield, providing limited defense.
In the end, the mecha also has a metal sword, which is just a normal weapon without any special abilities.
This is the basic equipment of the mecha, and if Luo Yan needs to, he can always spend money to upgrade it.
But Luo Yan hasn’t thought about investing resources in this small mecha for now.
Using it as a symbol for ‘Red Ghost’ is enough for him.
Coming out of the mecha.
Luo Yan tries to establish a ‘wireless resonance’ with this small mecha, but strangely, even though it has an ’empathy system’, it cannot achieve remote control like regular mechas for some reason.
He furrowed his brow, unsure of the reason.
Luckily, this isn’t a big issue.
The ‘Natural Resonator’ isn’t something simple.
If ‘Red Ghost’ also acts as a ‘Natural Resonator’, it will be easy for ‘Heiwu’ to find out all about him.
Luo Yan turned around and went to the car shop, where he found the employee.
“Captain Zeng said, can you provide some ‘services’ here?”
The employee nodded.
“Let me know what you need.”
“We can supply ammunition, maintain vehicles here.”
“Even for your small mecha, we can provide daily maintenance and regular system checks.”
Luo Yan nodded, “I don’t need those for now.”
“Can you help me find a warehouse that is not too noticeable, easy to access?”
The staff smiled.
He took out a tablet and provided three addresses.
“Here are some places that meet your requirements, take a look.”
“I personally recommend the second warehouse, it’s in a secluded location with few people around.”
“Plus, there is a road leading to the city, only a 30-minute drive away.”
“Additionally, we also offer electronic monitoring services.”
“When you’re not at the warehouse, we can help monitor the surroundings for you. If any suspicious individuals appear, the system will notify you immediately.”
“If you’re still unsure, you can purchase our ‘steward service’.”
“We will provide a security team who will disguise themselves as different people and patrol around your warehouse every day.”
“If the warehouse is attacked, they will help you fight off the enemy.”
“Of course, if you die in battle, you need to pay a compensation fee.”
Luo Yan was stunned by what he heard.
Are you still running a second-hand car dealership?
Finally, he rented the warehouse and purchased the ‘steward service’.
For now, let’s set it at one month.
Because he was not sure how long he would stay in Qingyang City.
Hearing that Luo Yan only needed to rent for a month, the staff member added, “We have branches in Guangling City and Changping City.”
“If you need similar services when you visit other underground cities, you can also come to us.”
Speaking, the staff took out a card and handed it to Luo Yan.
Luo Yan took it, and on the card, it did say ‘Ah Fat Used Cars’.
Very ordinary.
Nothing special.
After being busy for most of the day.
Luo Yan closed the anti-theft gate of the rental warehouse.
Renting the warehouse was because ‘Red Ghost’s identity could not be exposed, whether it was modifying a camper van or a mecha, they could not be brought back to campus.
Plus, having a base also made it convenient for ‘Heiwu’ to conduct internal investigations.
After all, right now.
The user of this warehouse is registered under the name ‘Red Ghost’ at the ‘Afa Motor Shop’.
Next, Luo Yan rode a motorcycle purchased from the shop, and returned to school along the road.
He calculated in his mind.
Renting the warehouse today, purchasing services, paying a deposit, plus buying a motorcycle.
He has already spent tens of thousands.
But for the money in his current account, this expense is just a drop in the ocean.
After returning to the school.
Luo Yan’s life returned to normal.
Every day is either studying or practicing.
One week later.
He was almost able to use another powerful martial art called ‘Broken Horizon’.
So he thought of going to find Zhang Ze in the next two days, to prevent this connection from breaking.
It was Friday that day.
After class.
Donghuang ran to the podium and said loudly, “Everyone, why don’t we go to ‘Tianxing Lake’ for the coming weekend?”
“It is one of the top ten scenic spots in our Qingyang City. We can soak in hot springs and stargaze at night, while enjoying some wine. How relaxing!”
“Think about it.”
“We have finally got a break, but we haven’t been able to rest properly.”
“Teacher said shouldn’t we balance work and rest?”
“How about it, are you interested?”
Su Jiu and Liu Ruohan, who came from Guangling, were naturally interested when they heard that there were hot springs in Qingyang City.
He Hao and Luo Yan didn’t have any thoughts.
The former simply wasn’t interested in sightseeing, while the latter was thinking about cultivation and the matter of ‘Heiwu’.
Donghuang slapped the table and said, “Don’t say I didn’t remind you, ‘Tianxing Lake’ is very lively at night.”
“Plus, there are plenty of handsome guys and beautiful girls.”
“Lao He, don’t you really want to have a passionate encounter?”
He Hao blushed, “Nonsense, am I that kind of person?”
Donghuang pointed at him and said, “What’s the deal with borrowing my magazine?”
He Hao picked up the table and was about to smash it.
When the classroom was messy, Luo Yan noticed Bai Chou looking at him.
He asked, “Is something wrong?”
Bai Chou covered her mouth and glanced between her feet, asking, “Luo Yan, are you coming with us?”
Luo Yan was just about to say he wouldn’t go.
Suddenly remembering how Bai Chou had helped him detox, he asked, “Do you want me to come?”
Bai Chou nodded like a little chick pecking at seeds.
Luo Yan nodded, “Then let’s go.”
Bai Chou suddenly looked up, his eyes shining brightly.
Not far away, Liu Ruohan glanced at them.
She furrowed her eyebrows lightly.
