Chapter 1111: Keep As Mementos
Chapter 1111: Keep As Mementos
Sakurai Yaeko and Lu Shu sat in the classroom. Both of them felt that being able to return to campus life was very interesting. They had no worries. It was as if they had returned to their youth.
This was not quite accurate, as they were still young. However, one of them was the leader of the Collection of Gods, and the other was the head of the Wei Wu Army, as well as the Ninth Heavenly King. Thus, they were required to mature early.
Now that they had returned to school, all they needed to do was to wait for the slave owners to come. Before that, they did not have to do anything. Furthermore, Lu Shu and Sakurai Yaeko were not worried about the mischief that the slave owners might cause. After all, Lu Shu had impressive combat power.
But they did not know that they were not ordinary students. Other students had to consider their studies. They had to revise and take exams, but the two of them did not. They had come here to “play”.
They did not have to worry about anything in school. Even the teachers were polite to them. Of course they would be happy.
Suddenly, the students realized that they were inseparable in school. They ate and attended lessons together. However, after school, Lu Shu went home on his bicycle, while Sakurai Yaeko was sent home by the Collection of Gods.
If Sakurai Yaeko was simply the heir of the Collection of Gods, they would not think much of this. After all, everyone loved to hear stories about a rich girl falling in love with a poor boy. But this was not the case...
It was not an exaggeration to say that the Collection of Gods was Sakurai Yaeko’s private possession. All the magical stones that the Collection of Gods had mined, as well as the weapons and mythical objects in their warehouses were all left to Sakurai Yaeko to distribute.
Thus, Sakurai Yaeko ordered men to bring over a massive safe. At first, Lu Shu did not know what was inside. The safe, which was as tall as a person, seemed very mysterious.
When Lu Shu opened the box, he realized that it was filled with Deep Sea White Sand. He was shocked.
This was the weapon of choice for earth-type Metahumans. No matter whether it was used for attack or offense, it was an efficient weapon.
If a typical stone was used to attack Practitioners, the stone might crack, but the Practitioner would not be affected. Even though the Deep Sea White Sand seemed small, every single grain was as tough as a brick.
Earth-type Metahumans could control bricks, but few people would use bricks as a weapon as it was simply too expensive. Furthermore, its ease of control and permeability of Spirit Qi was a far cry from that of the Deep Sea White Sand.
The permeability of Spirit Qi was what determined the standard of a mythical object.
Of course, the hardness of bricks was very attractive. Even if it was hard to control, it was more fatal than ordinary stones. Thus, people had tried to use bricks. Although they were expensive, they were only expensive to ordinary consumers.
In reality, many more bricks were produced than were circulated in the market. However, brick companies only produced bricks, but did not sell them. This was to control the price of bricks.
Thus, a few Metahumans worked together to rob a few companies and obtained many broken bricks!
Later on, they realized that something strange would happen in battle. For example, people would catch the bricks and run away. For example, some people wanted to steal the bricks he had obtained...
The pain that the Earth-type Metahuman felt was hard for ordinary people to understand.
This was not the fault of the bricks. People would also steal Deep Sea White Sand. This was probably what people meant when they said that treasures could cause disasters...
Lu Shu sat in the Kirihara dojo and curiously asked, “Did the Collection of Gods mine all of this?”
“Yes. All the Deep Sea White Sand in the trench has been mined,” said Sakurai Yaeko. But there was a tinge of regret in her voice. “There was supposed to be more, but someone suddenly robbed one of the boats. They disappeared before I could arrive.”
Lu Shu was dumbfounded. Then, he acted casual and asked, “Did you see what the person looked like?”
“No. Although he did not kill anyone, he was far too fast.” Sakurai Yaeko shook her head. “Even if I rushed over from Tokyo, I would not have made it in time. Thus, I don’t know who did it. It might have been a water-type Metahuman.”
“Oh.” Lu Shu asked, “Are there any other places in this world that produces Deep Sea White Sand?”
“No. This is one of the Collection of Gods’ most important resources. Deep Sea White Sand can only be found here,” said Sakurai Yaeko.
Suddenly, Lu Shu was slightly annoyed. Where did Shi Xuejin obtain his Deep Sea White Sand from? Was it from a deal? Or the spoils of war? Either way, he had taken what belonged to the Collection of Gods...
He did not expect someone like Shi Xuejin to do such a thing!
But Lu Shu had nothing bad to say, as Shi Xuejin did not use the Deep Sea White Sand for himself. From the very beginning, it was a gift he had prepared for Lu Xiaoyu.
Had Shi Xuejin been unwilling to admit defeat when Nie Ting captured a master for Lu Xiaoyu? Was that why he thought about the Deep Sea White Sand... this was highly probable.
Lu Shu was melancholic. How many people had a grudge against him? He had received the Cheng Ying sword, but it had come with a faulty sword spirit...
But Lu Shu was slightly curious. “Are you giving the Deep Sea White Sand to me?”
“Of course, we need to leave some for ourselves and give them to the earth-type Metahumans. But doesn’t Lu Xiaoyu need them too?” Sakurai Yaeko lowered her voice. “I think she will be happy.”
“She will be happy.” Lu Shu thought about it and said, “Then I won’t hold back. But I can exchange this for something.”
Anthony had advanced to the master realm. He definitely did not need to hide underground when fighting other masters. Thus, if they fought in the sky, the amount of Deep Sea White Sand might be the key to victory. Anthony did not need to obtain soil from the ground either.
But Lu Shu did not have the habit of giving away things for free. He started to look through the Seal of Lands. Should he give her the head-twisting gourd? It had been absorbing Lu Shu’s celestial powers to nurture itself. It could not always eat and not work.
It had even broken a wooden figure that Lu Shu had bought. Until now, Lu Shu did not know who the wooden figure was supposed to represent. He did not know where the head-twisting gourd got its confidence from either...
When Lu Shu looked at the head-twisting gourd, it hid behind Chaos. It was as if it knew that Lu Shu had plans for it.
Forget it. It had helped Lu Shu to avoid the thunderbolt. It might be useful in the future...
In the end, Lu Shu took out two refresher fruits and passed them to Sakurai Yaeko. “Eat them. I don’t know whether they will be useful to you.”
He did not know what resources Sakurai Yaeko had, but there was no harm eating refresher fruits.
Sakurai Yaeko took the refresher fruits and went back to her room. At midnight, Lu Shu suddenly heard Sakurai Yaeko running. He wore his clothes and got up. He saw Sakurai Yaeko walking out of her room and wiping her tears. Lu Shu asked curiously, “What’s wrong?”
“I wanted to keep the two fruits as mementos, but they disappeared,” said Sakurai Yaeko as she sobbed.
Lu Shu did not know whether to laugh or to cry. The refresher fruits only lasted for six hours, unless it was placed in a special safe that prevented the leak of energy. He took out another two refresher fruits and patiently said, “Eat them. Don’t keep them as mementos.”
He thought about it. He was afraid that Sakurai Yaeko would not listen to him. Thus, he took another one and placed it in Sakurai Yaeko’s hand. “Store this well. You have to keep this in a safe that prevents the leaking of energy.”
Sakurai Yaeko was happy once again!
