In the Bag
Although the so-called Long Ye Battleship looked shabby and was clearly an old Bastion that was about to be decommissioned, Ye Xuan didn't think too much about it and chose it on the spot because he trusted the devouring system.
Of course, the purpose of choosing a Bastion was nominally to supply the Black Mosquito Tribe. Zuo Hongwu was supposed to be in charge of this matter, but Ye Xuan was now the Black Mosquito Tribe's Holy Son and had a lot of influence on the Demonic Emperor Planet, at least on the surface.
That was why Zuo Hongwu had to bear with it for the time being and follow behind like an attendant.
In other words, even if he chose the Long Ye Battleship, Ye Xuan would still have to hand it over when he returned to the Black Mosquito Tribe!
Ye Xuan had already made up his mind about this matter. It was impossible.
On the one hand, Ye Xuan had no intention of letting Zuo Hongwu and Zuo Licheng return alive. They had plotted against Ye Xuan on the way here and had almost killed him. If Ye Xuan allowed them to return to the Black Mosquito Tribe in one piece, it would be too boring.
Since that was the case, he could just take the Long Ye Battleship and take it for himself. Could it be that Zuo Fengtai was allowed to destroy the Fierce Mosquito Bastion that belonged to the Black Mosquito Tribe? Why couldn't he, the so-called Holy Son, take a small Bastion with a diameter of five thousand meters?
The reason the Demon King Mo Wen Tian had suddenly relented on this matter was because of the large pile of Multi-pupil Cognition Crystals that Ye Xuan had given away. In that case, even if Ye Xuan took the Long Ye Battleship, he had no qualms about it. There was nothing to be embarrassed about.
He could just find an excuse to brush it off when he got back. After all, Zuo Hongwu and Zuo Licheng had been killed, and Zuo Fengtai was bound to be furious. When one had enough lice, one wouldn't be afraid of an itch. With Ye Xuan's current strength, he didn't need to fear a mere fourth level Origin Realm cultivator.
But compared to the other bastions in Stardock, Long Ye's ship was a little ugly. So long as Dan Fan was a normal person, he wouldn't have chosen it.
Therefore, in order to avoid arousing the suspicion of this so-called commander of the Demon Royal Guards, Ye Xuan had to come up with a plausible excuse.
He decided to make a breakthrough from the name of the small fortress.
Thinking of this, Ye Xuan immediately grinned awkwardly. He continued Chanas's words a little embarrassedly, "Commander, you must be joking. Hehe, this 20,000 meters in diameter is actually a cosmic fortress? I've learned something new … "
"But there are too many bastions here. I've only just walked in and I'm already dazzled by the choices. Why don't you have them give me a copy of the ship's name list? I'll just look at the ship's name. I'll pick the one that looks the best!"
Chanas was taken aback when he heard this, but he quickly reacted. He couldn't help but despise Ye Xuan in his heart. This kid clearly wanted a cosmic fortress with a diameter of 20,000 meters. After being exposed and embarrassed, he was now pretending to be someone important.
He actually planned to take a look at the ship's name list and pick the ship's name directly. Ugly people are always up to no good!
However, although he despised Ye Xuan in his heart, Chanas didn't expose him. Instead, he did as he was told.
Behind him, Zuo Licheng and Zuo Hongwu, who were standing not far away, frowned. They turned their heads and exchanged a look, but in the end, they didn't say anything. Since they had already endured it before, they didn't mind enduring it a little longer.
The so-called ship's name list was quickly sent over. It was just a piece of paper, and it was clearly written on the spot. Ye Xuan didn't mind. After receiving it, he lowered his head and started reading.
As he read, he muttered the names of the ships, but he didn't seem to be satisfied with any of them. After reading a dozen names, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he shouted loudly, "Long Ye? Long Zhan, Long Ye? Great! That's great! I like this domineering ship name. This is it! "
"Uh … Commander, with such a domineering ship name, this Long Ye wouldn't be one of the two cosmic fortresses, right? If that's the case, it's too much of a pity. We have to choose again. But I really like this domineering ship name! "
"Pfft!"
When he said this, even the usually serious Chanas couldn't hold it in anymore. He was so amused that he laughed out loud. It seemed that this kid was indeed a petty person who was intoxicated with success. He was immersed in it and enjoyed it quite a bit.
With a strange expression, Chanas raised his hand and pointed at that small fortress that was clearly the most tattered and unsightly one in the entire Star Dock. "Cough, cough, Long Ye … that's the one. It's a small fortress! I think you should choose another one! "
Bang, bang!
Bang, bang!
Just as Chanas finished speaking, two soft sounds came from behind him. He turned around and saw Zuo Licheng and Zuo Hongwu, their faces full of anger. It was clear they'd been struck by lightning. If they were to return with this crappy little bastion, it was hard to say whether they'd make it to Black Mosquito Planet alive.
Who knows, it might fall apart on the way.
Because of that, the uncle and nephew immediately shouted angrily after climbing up.
"Zhang Wuji, what are you trying to do? This is our Black Mosquito Tribe's fortress. Do you think it's your own private property? How dare you treat it like a child's play? "
"It's fine. How can a space fortress be so picky? Don't pretend if you don't know anything. If you can't handle it, just move aside … "
Although they had already decided to bear with it for the time being, Ye Xuan had indeed gone too far this time. They could not take it anymore. Therefore, the uncle and nephew could not hold it in and vented all their dissatisfaction.
Ye Xuan was secretly delighted. He immediately purposely turned his face red and looked extremely embarrassed. He was so angry that he kept stomping his feet. He pointed at the uncle and nephew and scolded, "Child's play? You dare to say that I'm child's play? I-I-I still want this Long Ye Xuan today. I am a man of my word. If I say that I will use the name of the ship, then I have to make the decision. This is something that the Demon King personally allowed me to do. Do you dare to stop me? "
He was obviously angry from embarrassment, and he even mentioned the Demon King, Mo Wen Tian. This directly stunned Zuo Licheng and Zuo Hongwu. Although they were full of anger, they did not dare to say anything. In the end, they snorted coldly and left.
At the side, Chanas had already lost interest. He could see that this kid was just a nouveau riche who had gotten lucky. He did not have any standards and was simply a petty person intoxicated by success. He probably would not be able to achieve much in the future.
With that thought in mind, Chanas tried to persuade Ye Xuan to give him a way out so that he would lose interest in changing to another space fortress. After a few perfunctory words, he called the person in charge of the Star Dock and went through the procedures with Ye Xuan.
