Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 1292: Chapter 1293: Look Down and See a Fool

After Elder Yu made a call, he sat down again.

Suddenly, he laughed and turned to Mr. Wang, saying, ”You know what? When I told those guys about this plan earlier, they were completely baffled.”

”Well, who wouldn’t be baffled?” Mr. Wang said with a wry smile, ”We’ve never done it this way before.”

”However, this is indeed a good method. The other side is surely well-prepared. If we do anything similar to our past actions, they will definitely be on high alert.”

Elder Yu slowly said, ”But, what they would never expect is us intentionally sabotaging our own ships.”

”At that moment, they’ll be bewildered and hesitant, not sure what to do.”

”After all, on the vast ocean, if the ship really breaks down, even if they control the hostages, it won’t be of much use.”

”Though they might quickly catch on, that moment of surprise is enough.”

Mr. Wang nodded repeatedly, but then sighed, ”It’s a good plan, but it can only be used once.”

”Once is enough,” Elder Yu hadn’t considered that.

Of course, the method Lu Xiaobu mentioned was just a concept, not something that can be simply executed. It requires a detailed and meticulous plan.

However, the concept is the most valuable part.

It seems involving Lu Xiaobu was indeed the right choice.

...

The earlier topic was just a minor interlude.

Subsequently, Lu Xiaobu settled down at the base and held a three-day-long training session.

Calling it training is a bit misleading, it wasn’t traditional teaching but rather a series of odd and whimsical training methods.

Like capturing Mr. Wang!

Like provoking the violent woman!

Like seeing who can make Elder Yu look foolish!

Anyway, these kids were tormented to no end by Lu Xiaobu!

Whether or not they learned anything remains unknown.

But anyway, these kids now fear nothing and strut around the base!

After all, what’s there to be afraid of? What’s scary? Just face whatever comes!

They’ve offended Elder Yu, Mr. Wang, and the violent woman; isn’t that asking for it?

They seriously suspect that Lu Xiaobu wasn’t training them but just playing tricks on them!

Shameless Lu Xiaobu!

And meanwhile, the violent woman’s revenge has begun!

...

Today is Lu Xiaobu’s fourth day at the secret base.

To be honest, he’s a bit fed up.

After all, when you look up, you only see lights, not the sun or the moon. When you look down, you only touch the cold floor, not the earth.

But that’s not the main issue.

The most annoying thing for Lu Xiaobu is being restricted to a fixed area.

They say it’s to protect him from danger before the training ends.

But doesn’t Lu Xiaobu know?

They just don’t want him to see more things yet!

Of course, it’s not about not trusting Lu Xiaobu, rather they’re afraid he’ll mess with the stuff.

They’ve heard of his nickname, the Plague God!

”Buzz!”

Just as Lu Xiaobu was feeling bored, suddenly, a slight rumbling sound came over.

Lu Xiaobu looked up.

Ah, the violent woman has arrived.

Lu Xiaobu then chuckled.

Because, at this moment, the violent woman was still protected by machinery, but this set of machinery piqued Lu Xiaobu’s interest a lot.

Finally, something good to play with!

This new machinery looks like a beefed-up wheelchair as the lower half, clearly meant for mobility, nothing much to say about that.

The upper half is where it gets interesting.

At first glance, just two giant steel fists, nothing too strange there.

But these fists are attached to the violent woman’s fists, clearly operated by her body!

”What is this?!” Elder Yu exclaimed, standing up in the control room upon seeing the machinery.

This is the violent woman’s new invention, something never seen before!

Stimulated by Lu Xiaobu, the violent woman has created something new again!

”Prepare all departments!” Elder Yu commanded, ”Xiao Ya has made something new again!”

Soon, everything started to move.

Those who are supposed to record data, record data. Those observing, observe. Those analyzing, analyze. Everyone has their duties, hoping this time Xiao Ya’s creation will have some breakthrough.

”Lu Xiaobu, prepare to meet your doom!”

At this moment, the violent woman’s eyes were full of madness, her gaze fixed solely on one target—Lu Xiaobu.

With the assistance of machinery, she was overflowing with confidence!

This time, she was sure she could pulverize Lu Xiaobu!

And so, with the rumbling of machinery, the violent woman charged towards Lu Xiaobu.

Lu Xiaobu smiled and prepared to confront her.

However.

”Don’t go.” The data boy Xiaozhi stopped Lu Xiaobu.

”What’s up?” Lu Xiaobu was puzzled.

Xiaozhi, in these three days, this was the first time he proactively talked to him.

Usually, Xiaozhi just immersed himself in his own world, like a child with autism.

”Forcibly assembled, without considering the mechanical strength, chances of damage are as high as seventy percent, explosion probability twenty-five point eight percent.” Xiaozhi maintained his calm, almost indifferent demeanor.

Upon hearing this, Lu Xiaobu instantly understood.

Since Xiao Ya and Xiaozhi have known each other, all of Xiao Ya’s modifications were done in collaboration with Xiaozhi.

This collaboration significantly reduced the danger of Xiao Ya’s produced machinery, making it safer.

However, similarly, this collaboration also limited Xiao Ya’s nearly imaginative creativity!

So this time, without Xiaozhi’s assistance, Xiao Ya created new machinery but also returned to the previous state of constant breakdowns or even explosions!

”Is there a way to stop this thing without damaging it?” Lu Xiaobu asked.

”Wait, let me check.” Xiaozhi’s eyes began scanning the machine with all the wires exposed, entangled like a mess, truly could be described as shoddy.

”There, there’s the power cable.” Xiaozhi quickly pointed out.

”Uhh...” When Lu Xiaobu looked in the direction Xiaozhi pointed, he suddenly felt a mixture of laughter and tears.

You know what?

Behind this machine, there was a long tail, meaning it was just like a vacuum cleaner dragging a power cable?!

The length of the power cable is the attack range of this machine!

Similarly, cutting the power cable, and the machine is useless!

This invention is truly speechless!

Seems mighty impressive, but utterly useless!

As the saying goes!

Mightily powerful operation like a tiger, but upon closer inspection, a fool!

ps: Updates end here today, sorry, probably these few Chapters weren’t really satisfying! Because, really, Elder Feng does not know how to write these slightly sci-fi things, wry smile, but I simply have to, as it ties into a lot that happens later, so I’ll try to reduce it and finish it soon! Returning to normal!
