Chapter 122: The Wandering Firefly Chasing the Phantom (Part )
A little earlier.
In front of the Pillar of Creation, a girl with short silver hair tilted her head back, staring at the severely damaged Creation Engine in front of her. The few strands of bright crimson in her hair were particularly eye-catching.
A small and cute piggy bank was rolling back and forth in the snow at his feet, and soon he dug out a golden treasure chest.
Seeing this, An Ming couldn't help but complain in his heart. If it were the yellow-haired guy next door, there would have been no grass growing wherever he passed.
Ah Xing was harmed by Xing Zun Meng. He even gave up the treasure chest every day. How shameful!
"We finally meet, Mr. An Ming."
Topa heard the footsteps behind him, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his gorgeous eyes like glass sparkled with surprise.
"Director Topa, you are too polite. How come the people here are not from our family?"
"It was not convenient for the family, so they packed the items and gave them to the company and asked me to deliver them," Topa said with a chuckle, but behind this was the Oak family's last resort.
Apart from the traces of exploration left by Akivali on the star map of Yalilo-6, the only relevant information is available within the company. As early as seven hundred years ago, before Yalilo was eroded by the star core, the company had extended a huge hand of development here.
However, the land contaminated by the star core is no longer worth developing and has to face endless attacks from the antimatter army.
And the person in charge of the company in Yalilo now is naturally Topa.
Topa knew of An Ming's existence not for any other reason, but because the young man in front of him had spent a fortune just to let her and the remaining ten people of Stone Heart go to his funeral to transform.
When An Ming came into the company's field of vision, some past events that existed in the records were turned up again, but all the information about An Ming was top secret.
The only thing that can be known is that the information came from the Xianzhou Alliance and the family, but both kept it strictly confidential. The only thing the company knew about was the existence of the name An Ming.
Perhaps only senior executives at the Diamond level are qualified to know more detailed information. The instructions given to Toppa were also very simple: try not to stand against An Ming.
Topa prefers to call it [investment].
This is a business that is sure to make a profit, so Topa is naturally happy to get to know An Ming. No matter from which angle you look at it, this is beneficial and harmless.
When arriving at the Pillars of Creation, Topal could still feel the sharp sword aura lingering in the sky for a long time even with his eyes closed. This sharpness even caused the company's ship signals to become disordered, making effective network communication impossible.
There had been a great battle here, but it was a pity that she couldn't witness it with her own eyes.
"This is the item that the family traded with you."
Topa handed An Ming the exquisite dark blue leather suitcase in his hand, which was engraved with the family's musical notes, which made An Ming subconsciously think of the God's Day with seven layers of toughness bars.
"Thank you," An Ming took the trading item he had been waiting for for a long time. The credit points consumed were not many. At most, he could go back and write more words to praise the Black Tower.
"Yalilo, very beautiful," Topa's eyes gleamed, and he smiled and said, "I'm afraid Mr. An Ming came to me not just to deliver the goods."
"Director Topa is also a smart man, so I will just speak frankly."
This was the way of survival that An Ming was looking for for Beloberg, not by using the Star Train, but by guaranteeing the company in his own name.
"Belloberg needs the company's assistance, but..."
"But it's just assistance, right?" Topa patted Zhang Zhang's head and looked at An Ming with a deeper look in his eyes.
The tense atmosphere did not last much longer. Topa quickly clapped his hands and summoned the contract projection, the content of which was so loose that it was completely unlike the company's style.
All it requires is An Ming's signature, without any additional conditions. The company will help Beloberg reconnect with the universe and rebuild the star track of trade.
“Perhaps you have never felt...”
Topa smiled and raised his right hand. A flickering golden light flashed by, and a golden mark appeared on An Ming's forehead.
"Is this... the will to protect?" An Ming recalled the vision he saw when he just arrived in Yalilo. At that time, Clipper did hit him on the forehead with a hammer.
"You vouch for Yalilo, and the Amber King vouches for you."
Perhaps even An Ming himself did not expect that the buffs stacked on him were already colorful enough - honorary member of the Black Tower Space Station, unknown passenger of the Starry Sky Train, the mark of the Amber King's will, and combat power comparable to that of an envoy.
It is reasonable and logical for the company to sacrifice Yalilo's interests in order to invest in Anming's future.
"I will visit Miss Bronya in person in a while, and I will naturally not reveal anything about you," Topa knew An Ming's needs very well, "The contract signed by then will be completely in favor of Yalilo."
"Then, happy cooperation?"
"Pleasant to work with."
Topa smiled and shook hands with Anming, and with that, the main goal of going to Yalilo was accomplished.
Presumably, those guys couldn't find any fault with it. Investing in Anming is a transaction that cannot be measured by benefits.
Anyone with real vision will understand what this means.
The items in the suitcase were also carried by An Ming with him for use before his departure.
Under the dazzling emerald aurora, An Ming held Liuying's hand and came to the end of Yongdong Ridge. In front of them was an endless white snowfield.
At the end of the aurora, An Ming turned and faced the fireflies.
"Firefly."
As he spoke, he placed the dreamy blue dream bubble into Liuying's palm.
Liuying seemed to be aware of something, and her beautiful eyes like the glow of the sunset stared at An Ming without blinking, afraid to miss even a second of eye contact.
The dream bubble melted quietly in the palms of the two people, turning into a dreamy curtain of light that engulfed the sky before their eyes.
In the sky before dawn, in the distance between the clouds, countless stars are shining, reflecting the final darkness of the sky.
The faint humming sound echoed in her ears, and the cool wind blew through Liuying's long hair, but she did not feel cold. Instead, it caused ripples in her heart.
At the end of the horizon, a cross-like light slowly rises between the towering buildings.
There are only An Ming and Liu Ying here.
An Ming took a few steps back, took out the exquisite little box, knelt on one knee facing Liuying, his eyes sincere and passionate.
"Ms. Liuying."
"Will you be my bride?"
At this moment, the sun slowly rose, and countless meteors fell from the end of the sky to the horizon.
One after another, like raindrops covering the sky, they are reflected in the fireflies' breathtakingly beautiful eyes. The faint mist makes the light colorful.
