Marvelous Mecha

Chapter 1126: The Fat Man's Suggestion_2


If they actually get to Bull Planet and stay there for ten years or so, even if Feng Wu and Feng Luo don't turn into refugee savages or sewer heroes, they'd likely become completely out of touch with modern life, turning into foolish lads and lasses. Their mother, Mengdie, upon learning of this would probably come hunting for you relentlessly, and it's said that Mengdie is already on her way here.

Seeing their startled expressions, Blade Warrior seemed to understand the unspoken meaning and laughed awkwardly, "Haha, I was just speaking off the cuff, just a random thought. Wouldn't this matter be better handled if everyone discussed it together?"

Judging by the current situation, returning to Jade Clear Sect is absolutely not an option. That old guy Wu Tian, despite his age and cunning, treats these two little dears as if he fears they'd melt in his mouth, scares if held, and worried they might fall and die if placed on top. In short, if Feng Wu and Feng Luo were sent back to Jade Clear Sect, the Jade Clear Sect would definitely end up in a war with Sky Shadow, and that's something nobody wants to see.

So, it was absolutely not wrong for Iman to secretly take them away. However, if Sky Shadow gets wind of this, what could be done?

The few of them were at a loss with no good strategies. As their thoughts shifted, Blade Warrior suddenly thought of Fatty Zhang Xiaobo. That's right, that guy's mind jumps around, always unconventional, coming up with ideas others wouldn't think of or pondering endlessly on things simple to others. In general, his thought process is different from ordinary people—not quite normal. Maybe he has a solution, and judging by Zhang Xiaobo's stance last time, he was clearly siding with the kids.

If he can't help, they would only be left to hand Feng Yi and Feng Luo over to General Greedy Wolf. In fact, General Greedy Wolf was also extremely concerned about these two kids, though his interest is partly due to Feng Yi, partly due to national circumstances, partly political, and partly other factors. Nevertheless, if Greedy Wolf intervenes, it might actually work out, though it's uncertain which side Greedy Wolf is on.

Put it this way: if they let Greedy Wolf know, the matter will absolutely end, and Greedy Wolf's choice would determine the kids' fate.

If Greedy Wolf were to step forward and protect them, then Sky Shadow probably couldn't do anything to the kids. After all, once the issue becomes public, he would have to consider things like human relations, for instance, the rumors and gossip; this guy has always prided himself on high morals and shouldn't shamelessly demand the kids.

However, if Greedy Wolf sides with Sky Shadow, it would likely spell difficulty for the kids' futures. So once they speak to Greedy Wolf, the matter is considered ended, yet the kids' fate becomes an unknown.

Thus, after careful consideration, the few of them decided to first contact Zhang Xiaobo, hoping his unique thought process might yield a good strategy.

Within a few breaths, the Heavenly Communication connected, and on the other end came the half-alive voice of Fatty Zhang Xiaobo, "Who is it? Calling me in broad daylight."

The Fatty indeed had a quirky thought process, as if implying it wasn't normal to call in broad daylight and it should only be done at night?

"It's me, Fatty."

"Ah, it's you, the woman out to trick me again? Whatever you say, I'm not going to Twin Stars, not going, not going, absolutely not going."

"Bah." Blade Warrior spat in the air, "What nonsense you're on about, I'm calling for some serious business today."

"Let's hear about this serious business then, haha, it better not be something juicy, right?" Zhang Xiaobo's chubby face wore a customary mischievous smile common among men, not a pleasant smile in the slightest—rather shameless indeed, his sycophantic expression made the women present feel nauseated.

"No juicy stuff, plenty of issues, though. Here, do you know these two kids?"

As Blade Warrior's perspective shifted, Feng Luo and Feng Wu soon appeared on his light screen. Zhang Xiaobo scratched his head, hesitantly asking after much thought, "Could these be Feng Yi's kids?"

After all, although Zhang Xiaobo called Feng Yi a brother, he paid no mind to these two kids. He had a family of his own, with his own kids on the way, hardly having time for others' children.

Of course, Zhang Xiaobo also knew that someone like Blade Warrior wouldn't normally care about these matters, notably showing him these two kids today with the recent news spread by Sky Shadow about cultivating two kids from a young age, both a boy and a girl, easily linking them to Feng Luo and Feng Wu.

"Not stupid, indeed. It's them, come up with some ideas."

So, Blade Warrior then narrated the predicament of Feng Luo and Feng Wu from start to finish, the gist being that Sky Shadow was coming after them, and nobody wanted to hand them over, fearing ruining the kids' entire lives, so they hoped Fatty had good advice.

Fatty groaned, vaguely beginning his long rant, saying this sort of matter shouldn't land on him, claiming to be just a simple Fat, with a straightforward mind and robust limbs. Whatever he could think of, others could, too. Moreover, who dares to voice a solution if it doesn't work? It not only earns grudges but also makes one a scapegoat.

Even though he sided with Blade Warrior, admittedly, Sky Shadow's intentions had their reasons. If he had to choose, it would be to ensure the kids grow in a favorable environment, though handing them to Sky Shadow wasn't a bad idea. How many could beat Sky Shadow, after all, he's no less capable than others.

Backing up a bit, if you suggested hiding the kids and yet it couldn't explain to Sky Shadow, complaints would arise.

You offered a suggestion, it didn't work out, not only would Sky Shadow blame you for giving a terrible suggestion, but if caught, the Jade Clear Sect would further blame you, claiming there were better ways yet heeded your nonsense, losing the kids, what could be done then?

Thus, regarding Blade Warrior's query, Fatty straightforwardly said the kids could be thrown into the mountains, or if not that, sent to someone peripheral and unrelated.

Why was this guy's answer so sharp and why that answer? What was everything he said before for? When Blade Warrior brought up the question again, Fatty was slightly startled.

Indeed, the brother ranted for ages, only for it all to be futile, why suggest such a rotten idea to hide the kids, practically jumping into the fire pit himself? Just now, he enumerated a bunch of social etiquettes, implying the pros and cons, the powerful rhetoric leaving everyone dumbfounded, and yet he came with a reversal at the end. It wasn't logical, magical, nor practical.

The crowd sighed, "See, I said his thought process is peculiar. Fine, let's do as you say."

"Hold on, do you guys have any ideas at all? Why follow what I said? Why me? I was just suggesting it."

"Mm-hmm, your suggestion is quite good, worth adopting. I'll inform Mengdie about it; if she doesn't oppose, we'll go with it."

"Hey! Wait."

Seeing Blade Warrior gesture to close the communication, Fatty immediately stretched out five fingers, imploring Blade Warrior to hold on, only to find that the call was abruptly disconnected before he could finish speaking, and unable to reconnect, seemingly looped into self-destruction?

Darn! What happened? He was just dawdling in a dream, only to mysteriously receive a call, then just…

Currently, Fatty stood there somewhat oblivious, seemingly caught in an existential loop, pondering life, feeling he, the beautiful and irresistible Fat Tiger, shouldn't have been so dense and idiotic. Did he perhaps eat too much nonsense last night?

No, not at all!

Recalling the nonsense, Zhang Xiaobo hurriedly shook his head, having not indulged in any last night, rather being stationed as a guard.

As an underground refugee within the Interstellar Battle Network's sewers, it's said, when Zhang Xiaobo steps out, he's like a dog—no, not a dog, but a default system Mecha. All gear is acquired through snatching; if not by stealing then by killing. Presently, his PK notoriety has hit a sinister level of 666, prompting a severe system penalty, reducing his abilities by 40%.
