Chapter 378 The Interstellar Insect Emperor Must Save Himself (Part 9)



".......All right."

Unexpectedly, this guy was really patient and didn't try to lay a hand on her at all. Yu Ling wasn't the type to deliberately provoke him.

He directly unleashed his powerful spiritual energy field, forming a unique pressure characteristic of this world, based on the fluctuations of the spiritual bodies of other imperial beings he remembered. He said:

"Please note, I'm not joking. I am a pirate, and I'm going to rob you."

The boss was prepared to hear something earth-shattering, but was caught off guard by this prank and could hardly believe his ears.

...What? A robbery? Is this for real?

He doesn't want this shabby shop at all! He'd be more than happy to have this 'tall guy' take the fall for him! It's just a shame about his looks; he'll probably cry his eyes out later.

The boss had already made up his mind to hand over the position, and without any anger, calmly asked, "May I ask what exactly you want to rob?"

"All of you! Let's fight! I've heard that 3S-level mental power can leave a mental imprint on others. I haven't tried it myself yet."

Yu Ling was eager to try; surely he would be angry this time?

However, ideals often clash with reality. The boss, for some unknown reason, had a strange expression on his face, a mixture of confusion, unease, and something unspeakable. He looked like he wanted to laugh but couldn't, a picture of suppressed rage. He said:

"Here you go, take it. From now on, you'll be the boss, and I'll be in management. Oh, by the way, you can just call me Northon, new boss... Is there anything else?"

......?

This plot isn't right!

Even if I did demonstrate strong mental power, this person can't be as stupid and easy to talk to as the system, can they?

Yu Ling seemed to be deep in thought, and quickly realized something: "Northon, right? There's no rush to tell you what's going on with me... Why don't you give me a hint first, what kind of trouble has this place gotten into?"

It's normal for others to notice something's wrong if your attitude is strange.

Boss Northon didn't intend to hide anything from Yuling either, and was quite frank about it:

"As you know, General Bennett of the Empire is driving out the Zerg. If he happens to stop by this usually inconspicuous place of ours, he might just capture some space pirates or wanted criminals to take back with him..."

Yu Ling hesitated, a little frustrated, before letting her newly formed momentum dissipate before finally saying, "So you're planning to run away?"

"That's not the case. The problem is that the people on the garbage planet have something wrong with their brains. Half of them have criminal records and want to fight back, while the other half don't and want to surrender. I, who run a small business, am caught in the middle and have no choice but to accept it."

Northon sighed.

"We can't fight them all, and choosing one side offends the other. They cause trouble every few days, and we've lost nine-tenths of our customers!"

The garbage planet is so remote that it's not even covered by the StarNet. The fuel cost for an official or mercenary trip wouldn't even cover the bounty. They're used to a life of ease, and they're scared off by Bennett's impending return.

"So, you really want to take over this place, right?"

Northon asked cautiously,

"I guarantee that from today onwards, all the revenue from this store and the other branches will be yours! Can you please not impose your will on me?"

Seeing that Yu Ling remained silent, and thinking about the super strong mental pressure that this person had just released, he felt that this person was a hidden big shot, a tall guy who could back him up, much more reliable than those rotten bastards on the garbage planet.

They're just the tallest among the short; when the general comes, they're at his mercy. And now, they've already thrown themselves into disarray. But now, this unknown big shot, Yu Ling, is returning with the former deputy general; she'll definitely protect him!

Northon: Hehe, I'm such a clever little devil!

After the scripted death, the Zerg were defeated, and Bennett, riding high on his success, is very likely to come and clean up the mess.

But now that he's here, and the Insect Planet has been hidden, Bennett is unlikely to waste time on the Junk Planet. Even if Lyme is here, the other party won't know. The Junk Planet is currently safe, so taking over this shop is also an option.

But the fist was clenched so tightly, yet it wasn't thrown. What a pity!

Yu Ling asked softly, "Northon, are you really not going to fight me? You're just giving away such a huge business like that, who knows if you're truly willing to submit to me..."

"I guarantee it. I definitely can't beat you. With 3S mental strength, you're at least an A-level mecha pilot. The best one on our entire garbage planet is only a C-level," Northon said matter-of-factly.

Submitting to the strong is the norm on the garbage planet. Didn't he eliminate a bunch of competitors to make his business a monopoly?

There's an old saying on the ancient planet Water Blue: "Those who know the times are wise..." Hehe, it's not shameful for him to be like this. Life and money are more important, and the big boss doesn't lack money. He's got everything except his reputation, perfect!

Yu Ling: I don't even have a single mecha part, and you call me a mecha pilot?

Forget it, it's free, might as well take it. If the owner of this place is out of his mind, then the other scum on that garbage planet will definitely come looking for trouble, right?

"Lancelot, that's my name."

Yu Ling gave the original owner's name, which was considered an admission that she had taken over the shop from this silly-looking owner. He said...

"Keep this a secret for now. Have your men pass on a message to the two representatives you mentioned, saying that you have kidnapped former Vice General Lyme and that you have something to discuss with them urgently."

Northon: ... Suddenly I felt a murderous aura coming towards me!

"Yes, boss! No problem, boss!"

Yu Ling could get things done in no time, and finally remembered that he had left Lyme waiting for half a day. She gave him a few more instructions before asking Norston to have the person in charge bring Lyme in as well.

At this moment, the person in charge was unaware that the boss had changed personnel. With a complicated expression, he led Lyme into the private room that the boss used for his debauchery.

The room still smelled of Northon and the group of beauties who had just left. As soon as Lyme entered, he knew what this place was for, and his brows furrowed.

Yu Ling pulled the person inside and slammed the door shut.

"Ahem, it's all settled. The condition is that you have to record a kidnapping video with me. Once Bennett leads the army out of the garbage planet's vicinity and returns ahead of schedule, I will personally send you back to the Imperial Planet."

As Yu Ling spoke, Norston nodded repeatedly, as if to say, "That's right, that's exactly what I meant!"

In fact, it was the first time he had ever heard of it either.

So the new boss asked him for a personal recording device because he wanted to do this kind of thing!
