Chapter 13: You're finished
The surroundings maintained a suffocating kind of silence.
Like a super awkward scene, where the first person who spoke
would die of embarrassment.
After a long while, the elite little squad finally continued to
express, indicating sincerely that they were really only casually
worshipping. Really, it wasn't serious at all!
Zhuang Zhou silently looked at the faith collection device around
his neck and then looked towards the elite little squad, his
expression growing complicated.
Liars...…
He had already acquired their Faith...…
They didn't even use real incense, and there were no candles.
Even more so, they didn't worship in front of his Divine Image.
But Zhuang Zhou still felt their Faith. Although it was only a little
bit...…
What did this indicate?
Just think about it. Faith was created without even using special
items used for worship. Just how devoted a person’s heart, how
intense someone's desires must be, to do something like this!
Even though he only collected a little bit of Faith, that's only
because there's no incense, candles, etc!
If they were given incense and candles, perhaps the strength of
their Faith would be as pure as Xiao PoLan’s!
However, Zhuang Zhou was a very understanding God of Wealth.
He wouldn't expose his believers' lies.
Therefore, after both parties remained silent for several minutes,
Cheng JinXue finally said with an expressionless face: "...… get
some sleep soon."
Zhang Feng and his small squad hastily agreed: "Yes!
Vice-admiral Cheng, you should rest early too. You've been
working hard!"
Cheng JinXue said expressionlessly: "En."
Then, the crowd shifted their gazes away in mutual
understanding, pretending none of this ever happened. They
quickly cleaned up their stuff and then left.
Leaving behind Zhuang Zhou, -this god who had been secretly
worshipped in the middle of the night- with a dumbfounded look
on his face.
He felt even more so that…… intergalactic people were really very
hard to understand.
Despite being dumbfounded, Zhuang Zhou glanced at the Faith
collection device around his neck and then started smiling
happily.
Throwing a wide net into the ocean still had its benefits. He had
over ten believers now!
That very night.
Zhuang Zhou went into Wen XiaoYun's dream and told him about
this.
"Wen XiaoYun, do you think they really believe?"
Wen XiaoYun hasn't dreamt of Zhuang Zhou for several nights
now. After his Mental World became contaminated, his psychic
strength has been decreasing everyday.
With the decrease in psychic strength, trying to maintain a good
night’s sleep was pretty much impossible.
He had been unable to sleep for four nights straight. Originally,
he thought he'd sleep poorly like the previous nights.
Unexpectedly, he was pulled into his dream world. His constant
headache seemed to have been alleviated somewhat as well.
Wen XiaoYun looked at Zhuang Zhou and asked him in return:
"Do you believe there's God in this world?"
Zhuang Zhou blinked and then said extremely seriously: "Of
course I believe it."
There's one right in front of you!
Wen XiaoYun rubbed him on the head. He almost forgot. This
little friend of his was very superstitious. Before eating, he always
had to make an offering to his dad, like he really believed that if
he offered the food to his father, his father would be able to eat
those things as well.
With this kind of belief, how could he not believe that there's God
in this world.
People can't be revived after death, however. No matter what you
offer or how you pay respects, the dead will remain dead.
However, Wen XiaoYun didn't want to break out this truth and
make Zhuang Zhou sad. Therefore, he only said a faint "En" and
then didn't ask anymore.
Zhuang Zhou, however, very happily started talking to Wen
XiaoYun about what he did today.
"Today, I registered for a Mecha building class online. I already
learned a lot!"
Wen XiaoYun asked: "You want to learn how to make Mechas?"
Zhuang Zhou nodded his head, eyes curving as he smiled very
happily: "I want to make mechas that have no radiation pollution.
Then many people will admire and worship me. However, right
now, I've only been learning theory. I've never even seen most of
the mecha components mentioned in the class...…"
However, he already has a plan.
In a bit, he planned to use his Divine powers to inspect all of the
components inside Xiao PoLan. Then, he can be like Wen
XiaoYun, and secretly go search for components in the garbage
pile, which he can use to try assembling.
Wen XiaoYun looked pensive. Mecha components?
Maybe tomorrow, he can let his little friend study and learn from
his mecha, Wo Si?
-
The next day, Wen XiaoYun reported the news of discovering the
quarry on B-324 to the higher ups.
However, perhaps because Cheng JinXue had prayed really very
piously yesterday night or something, even though Wen XiaoYun
reported this, the news was suppressed by the Grand Admiral of
the entire army.
This Grand Admiral was the best friend of Wen XiaoYun's father,
Wen Tian, who was the legendary battle god back then. The
Grand Admiral personally contacted Wen XiaoYun using an
encrypted channel.
"XiaoYun, I suppressed the news about the quarry for you."
Wen XiaoYun said softly: "That's what I suspected."
"The current state of the army is unstable." The Grand Admiral
said this brief sentence, but didn't explain anything clearly. He
sighed and continued to say: "There’s no need to report to the
higher ups about the energy quarry you discovered on B-324. The
3rd legion also has professionals in the field so you guys take
charge in the extraction.”
Wen XiaoYun said: “I reported it not to ask for their instructions,
but to let you know, Uncle Huo.”
Grand Admiral Huo smiled briefly: “I also guessed it. That’s why I
contacted you. Seeing from what you said in the report, the
extraction process will be very difficult?”
“En.” Wen XiaoYun explained: “The radiation is too strong.
There’s no way to stay inside for long. We need a lot of new and
updated equipment.”
Grand Admiral Huo thought briefly and said in a heavy voice: “I’ll
come up with a plan to send you some. Don’t let others know
about this temporarily. However, currently you have no reason to
stay in B-324. This would also make people suspicious.”
Wen XiaoYun said: “I can resolve this.”
Half an hour later.
The army officials released an online news announcement:
Admiral Wen XiaoYun of the Empire’s 3rd Legion was exposed to
radiation on the abandoned trash planet of B-324 due to lack of
protection. His Mental World sustained contamination from
energy radiation and his psychic powers have dropped from SSS
level to SS level. Furthermore, there’s signs of further
deterioration in the future! Admiral Wen XiaoYun, who had
suffered heavy damage to his Mental World, is temporarily unable
to endure jump warps and has been forced to remain on B-324 to
recuperate!
After this announcement was made, the entire intergalactic net
was in uproar!
Wen XiaoYun was the youngest admiral of the Empire. He was
also an extremely gifted individual, the only one with a SSS
psychic level in the entire Empire!
“I can’t believe it! I can’t believe that even Admiral Wen was
contaminated by energy radiation……”
“Ahhhh exploding in tears! How can this happen! Trash
intergalactic alliance! Why is there no cure for energy radiation
yet?!”
“When I think about how Admiral-daren’s psychic level will
continue to decrease in the future, I just can’t help but want to
cry.”
“How many gifted people have been contaminated by energy
radiation and then completely vanish from the public view
because of it……”
“I remembered my dad. My dad was working in a factory before.
Because of an operation error, energy radiation leaked out and
contaminated my dad. Last year, he couldn’t last and passed
away.”
While the entire intergalactic net expressed their shock and
wailed, the people on battleship Wyvern naturally saw the news
at the same time.
Especially Cheng JinXue. He hastily ran over to find Wen XiaoYun:
“Boss…… is this true? Are you really……”
Wen XiaoYun said calmly: “It’s fake.”
Cheng JinXue was stunned.
Wen XiaoYun: “Grand Admiral Huo has suppressed the news of
the quarry and allowed our people from the 3rd Legion to extract
from it. The battleship needs a justified reason to stay on B-324.”
Cheng JinXue comprehended slowly: “So, you purposely released
that kind of news, boss?”
Wen XiaoYun acknowledged with an ‘En”.
Outside the door, Doctor White wished to speak, but held back.
Because this wasn’t fake news at all. It was real!
However, seeing that Cheng JinXue had really believed Wen
XiaoYun, Doctor White couldn’t really say anything
“That’s great!” Cheng JinXue let out a breath of relief. He couldn’t
help but say: “Who would have thought that worshipping that
God yesterday…… really worked!”
Hearing these words, Wen XiaoYun furrowed his brows:
“Worship?”
Cheng JinXue was slightly embarrassed. However, since it had
been effective both times, even the non-superstitious him
couldn’t help but add: “It’s just, yesterday I was having a
headache about the thing with the quarry, about how to report it
to the higher ups, and about how to make it belong to the 3rd
Legion…… I couldn’t think up any good plans at all, so I just
casually worshipped that God I prayed to yesterday afternoon
again……”
The corner of Wen XiaoYun’s mouth twitched faintly.
Cheng JinXue said: “But look, boss! It really worked! Didn’t I just
finish worshipping yesterday night? Immediately after I got up
today, everything was resolved. The news has already been
reported to the higher ups, but the Grand Admiral had
suppressed it, and even told us to extract it ourselves. And also
there’s a perfect reason to remain on B-324……”
The more Cheng JinXue talked, the more he felt: fck, just what
kind of god was this? A wishing god?
They were really too effective!
Wen XiaoYun was speechless. Those were clearly things that he
had done this morning.
Seeing Cheng JinXue’s already convinced attitude, Wen XiaoYun
only reminded him nonchalantly: “Don’t get happy too early.
Right now, extraction is still an issue.”
Thinking of this, Cheng JinXue’s fervent heart immediately turned
cold as well.
He rubbed his head: “How about, I go make another offering?
Who knows, maybe a solution for the quarry extraction issue will
appear.”
Wen XiaoYun said neutrally: “Up to you.”
He refused to believe that casually making an offering would
resolve the quarry extraction issue.
If this were really possible, the Empire’s professional extraction
team can be all dismissed.
Since Cheng JinXue said he’s going to worship, that’s what he
did.
This time wasn’t the same as the secret offering last night.
Brazenly, with a very earnest attitude, he made this offering right
in front of Wen XiaoYun.
He just finished bowing.
Then a head peeked in from behind the door.
Zhuang Zhou held something in his arms, quietly looking to see if
he could come in. Seeing only Wen XiaoYun and his believer,
Cheng JinXue, inside the main control center, Zhuang Zhou let
out a breath of relief and asked: “Can I enter?”
Wen XiaoYun got up: “Of course, you can.”
Zhuang Zhou immediately ran over in small steps. Behind him
followed Xiao PoLan, creakily rolling its foot wheels.
Zhuang Zhou placed the robot in his arms in front of Wen
XiaoYun and said with a slight hint of pride: “Wen XiaoYun, I
learned from you, and used the components I picked up from the
garbage pile outside to assemble this robot. Just like Xiao PoLan,
it’s very intelligent!”
Wen XiaoYun was somewhat flabbergasted: “You made it?”
Yesterday night, the little friend had mentioned learning this in
his dream.
Who would have thought he had a finished product already.
Xiao PoLan also proudly puffed up its chest.
In order to help Master create this robot, it had helped Zhuang
Zhou search for components all night. It even dismantled its
outer shell so Master could assemble and install according to its
setup!
It was really too amazing!
“Also also.” Zhuang Zhou said swiftly: “Didn’t you say that it’d be
very hard for humans to mine the quarry? This robot can do it!
It’s very smart and it’s not afraid of radiation contamination!”
Hearing this, Wen XiaoYun and Cheng JinXue were both stunned.
Cheng JinXue couldn’t believe it: “What did you say? It can mine
the quarry?!”
Zhuang Zhou said: “Yes. You only need to transport it up and
down the cave of the quarry. It will excavate the energy stones
by itself.”
Wen XiaoYun: “......”
Cheng JinXue: “.......”
The two people unconsciously looked towards the things that still
remained uncleaned on the floor
There was a bottle of nutritional supplement that served as the
offering.
There was a big bowl containing sand that served as the incense
burner.
There were three little sticks inserted into the sand like incense
sticks.
Meanwhile, Cheng JinXue…… just finished worshipping not even
two minutes ago!
“Oh fck.” Cheng JinXue felt lightheaded: “Boss, didn’t I say just
now. Perhaps after I finished worshiping, a solution would
appear?”
Wen XiaoYun: “......”
Cheng JinXue: “...... oh my fcking god, isn’t this too
miraculous?!”
Zhuang Zhou can see and feel Cheng JinXue becoming a bit
purer.
Blushing slightly, he said in embarrassment: “Just now you……
worshipped again?”
Cheng JinXue was so happy he was going crazy. He excitedly
hugged the robot that Zhuang Zhou made: “Zhou Zhou! Can this
robot really extract ores? My god, I can’t even believe it! Do you
know? The God that I worship is really too impressive . I just
finished making an offering two minutes ago and all of my wishes
came true!”
Zhuang Zhou felt embarrassed from the praise and said with a
reddened face: “Perhaps just a little.”
Cheng JinXue said excitedly: “This really must be a super fcking
awesome Wishing God!”
“En en, must b…… en?” Zhuang Zhou paused: “Wish, wishing
God?”
Cheng JinXue said: “That’s right! Must be, otherwise why would
everything I wish come true?! From now on, I am their faithful
believer!”
The smile on Zhuang Zhou’s face completely disappeared.
He looked at Cheng JinXue and said slowly: “You’re finished.”
The little God of Wealth was a n g r y!

The author has something to say: PS--
Zhuang Zhou: “I painstakingly did my best to bless you, yet you
actually thought I was the Wishing God! Goodbye.
