Chapter 147: Meeting (10)
"Don’t be anxious, don’t be anxious! There’s enough for everyone!"
"This gold chain’s weight doesn’t feel right… Damn, it’s discolored?!"
"How much did you buy your watch for?"
"Bro, your watch is really too fake . How am I supposed to believe that this watch is worth ten thousand dollars when there are cartoons on it? Is this the Ultraman's version? Bye!"
"Last five spears, I’m keeping them for my own use!"
"Not selling the fruits!"
"That student who bought a spear just now, it seems like this beautiful lady beside you wants a sword… It’s fine, it’s fine if you don’t have a gold chain . I’m not that greedy, your watch seems quite decent…"
In the end, Lu Shu wielded his last remaining sword, "It’s the last one . Someone has offered a Longines worth 16000 dollars . Anyone willing to offer more?"
There were huge crowds of people in front of Lu Shu now, it was absolutely packed .
Some of them really intended on getting themselves a weapon . Everyone already knew about getting a weapon to claim some credit .
The rest were there to check out the commotion . After all, not everyone had expensive stuff on them . Indeed, there were daoyuan students who carried expensive items but they still belonged to the minority of buyers .
The ones who moved the fastest for the weapons were still the group of members of the heavenly network who had valuable items with them . They were clear of the relation between the weapons and the training instructions and manuals they could get .
Those daoyuan students who had valuables were fuming . Many of them were stuck on the mysterious senses chapter .
Those students who traveled with Lu Shu were absolutely stunned . Looking at Lu Shu’s sales, the serious atmosphere was totally gone!
Was this… exploring the remains?!
How could this Lu Shu do this! Can you be any weirder?!

To be honest, Lu Shu was felt rather guilty . He didn’t expect his influence to be this big, why was everyone surrounding him . . .
If this was found out by the higher management of the heavenly network . . .
It was okay if they punished him by not providing him with magical stones, he didn’t need them anyway . But what if they banned him from entering other remains in future? How would he trade and do business?!
He could only tell Li Yixiao when he sees him . Seeing Li Yixiao’s sense of brotherhood and honor, he would definitely not lie after saying that he would look out for Lu Shu .
Li Yixiao was a heavenly king with the highest class within the heavenly network . Although Lu Shu didn’t know how Li Xiaoyi would react… he could only play by ear . . .
If everything restarted, Lu Shu would probably have done everything the same way . After all, the punishments the heavenly network could mete out to him were probably not a big issue .
Since some people saw him steal the spears, no one had much to suspect about him .
He only wished to go out and sweep the area once more, to see if there were any surviving skeletons . . .
Once he confirmed he would stop selling when he was left with five spears, the surrounding crowd started to disappear . They all bought the weapons to gloat as indeed, regardless sword or spear, they were of great quality .
Someone from outside shouted suddenly, "Lu Shu! The teachers of the heavenly network are asking for you for a meeting . "
Meeting? Lu Shu was stunned . What meeting?
He was just a student, why did the heavenly network look for him? He walked towards Cao Qingci to see what’s going on and realized there was a person by her side telling her something . Cao Qingci then nodded her head and followed that person to the meeting point of the heavenly network .

Lu Shu thought for a moment . They gathered them probably due to the fact that they were useful for battle .
And he felt that there was some need to participate in the meeting . After all, the relic was yet to be found . No one could say for sure, but there might be some new treasures within the pothole .
With treasures come benefits . Lu Shu was actually addicted to selling equipment . . .
Lu Shu stayed silent for a moment and made his decision . He grabbed his remaining five spears and sword and started making his way to the meeting point, clanking along the way .
At this moment, every one of the heavenly network members was gathered at a corner . This was probably the entire heavenly network of Yuzhou, comprising a few hundred people . The lowest class here was class E, and no one knew what the highest class was . The power of this group of people was quite intimidating .
Everyone was discussing something, but one of their identities was evidently different . Lu Shu started sensing . The other party exuded a power far greater than a normal member of the heavenly network but he did not have the aura and terrifying power of a heavenly king .
Class C? Lu Shu thought . He must be looking at a class C expert within the ranks of the heavenly network .
He had always thought that no class C’s were involved in this operation . It seemed like he was wrong .
In actual fact, there were 3 class C experts in the remains this time but the other two were, like Li Yixiao, battling with other experts who were in here for unknown reasons . No one even knew if they were still alive .
At this moment, everyone was discussing an issue but looked over at the source of a constant clanking .
"From Xi Fei’s distress, +31…"
"From Liu Xuanyu’s distress, +43…"
"From…"
This was a humongous wave of distress points . Xi Fei recognized his student Lu Shu immediately from within the group of people . But… what was with this kid and the gold chains on his neck?! Wasn’t all that clanking caused by the gold chains?!
And what’s with all the watches on your hand?
Why do you have a watch dangling on your neck?!
Was he here on a trip to the remains?!
Everyone was confused . Some people had no idea what was happening until a small voice broke the silence, "This is the student who was selling weapons…"
Everyone then realized . Oh, it’s as such . . .
Everyone then understood why Lu Shu was dressed this way . But even if they knew the reason, it didn’t alleviate them of their annoyance! This was absolutely ridiculous!
That unidentified practitioner sized Lu Shu up with a weird expression, "So you are student Lu Shu…?"
"Yes, I’m Lu Shu . . . " Lu Shu was flooded with a huge wave of distress points and he didn’t know which line belonged to this practitioner . So he actually couldn’t make use of his system to find out one’s name if there were too many people .
"Hi, I’ll be replacing heavenly king Li in leading this operation temporarily . Class C, I hope you would listen to my instructions . My surname is Zhong, you can call me by my name, Zhong Yutang," The man speaking felt slightly troubled . He had heard about Lu Shu and Cao Qingci, and actually appreciated these two daoyuan students . At least daoyuan class had these two students who did not let him down . But seeing Lu Shu’s appearance, he decided to retract part of his opinion – daoyuan class had at least one student, Cao Qingci, who lived up to his expectations . . .
He thought for a moment before speaking, "And… aren’t you well-versed at throwing spears? Then don’t sell the last 5 spears…"
"Yeah, I’m not selling…" Lu Shu promised as he thumped his chest, the gold chains clanking simultaneously .

Contact First
2039 - Earth A narrow beam energy signal appeared aimed squarely at earth from the TRAPPIST system. The communication consisted of a layered set of repeating data over several thousand wavelengths. Over the next few months scientists discovered that the lower wavelengths carried an encoded numerical language which could then be used to interpret the more complicated messages carried on the higher wavelengths. After half a year of painstaking work the signal was fully decoded. It described a small satellite launched along a precise trajectory towards the fourth planet of our solar system. Included was a package of advanced research that humanity would need to have ready in order to receive the satellite and decelerate it safely. The alien data provided the kick that humanity needed to turn from petty squabbling and unite to explore the final frontier. Major government and corporate leaders worked together to create the framework for the United Federation of Sol. UFS spaceports went from scaffolding to daily launches in every major city around the globe. Ships floated like dandelion seeds, spreading on solar wind to grow into colonies. 2397 - Mars orbit, Egeria Station The command center was a hive of activity as checks were conducted and systems initialized. Scientists flitted by like mayflies as communicators beeped and holoscreens spat out green tinted readouts. Nervous energy was thick in the air as everyone anticipated the culmination of over three hundred years of work. Massive fusion reactors under the planet's surface thrummed with barely restrained power as energy fed into a gleaming metallic maze criss crossing the planet. Metal fingers reached up, overshadowing the mighty olympus mons and trying to grab the stars. All over the solar system, people quickly turned to look as gigantic energy lances shot from the dusty fourth planet. Two years later. The same people that clapped loudly at the successful activation of project Hermes now wait with baited breath. A silver capsule trailing bright photonic sails is captured by a net of grav beams and guided with care bordering on reverence into the station. Holoscreens across the headquarters project an image of the sleek craft settling in the bay. Data connections are established and the holoscreens blink to white. Slowly an image forms on the screen. Across the headquarters people stare in wonder as a wholly alien face stares back. "Contact established. Welcome to the universe."

The Choice of Twilight
Growing up has always been difficult. It's even worse when you have to do it all in one night. On the eve of his thirteenth birthday, Ty awakes to find himself in a dreamworld, one-so he is told-that exists to pit him against his greatest fears and insecurities. And to ready him for a final choice. Luckily, Ty is not without friends. He soon meets Gentry, a wooden puppet his grandfather made for him years ago, walking and talking, ready to help Ty learn what he needs to return home in one piece. But that won't be easy when a cruel and abnormally tall skeleton dressed in mockery of Santa Claus and his suit hates Ty's guts. San wants nothing more than to best Ty and do what none of his kind has ever done before: defeat a child that has made "the choice." But Ty will stop at nothing to fight back against everything San's got in order to face his fears and grow up. Because, if he doesn't, he will end up a kid forever. Or, worse...never wake up again. This story is perfect for you if you are a fan of Coraline and Kingdom Hearts, both of those stories greatly inspired this one. I have recently added the Isekai tag after being unsure if it counts or not. I've decided it fits the description of what it is but not the current trends in the genre. If you go in with Coraline in mind I think you will have a better idea of the kind of Isekai this is. And I've also added the Slice of Life tag, that is only for the first five or six chapters though, then Ty enters the dream world and it pretty quickly becoms a progression fantasy, a mix of more traditional fairy tale like trappings alongside more anime action and acquisition of slowly increasing powers. With all that out of the way, please enjoy! Updates every Tuesday and Thursday! What time of day? It's a mystery! (For now)
