Chapter 648: Neon Battleship Out
Chapter 648: Neon Battleship Out
As Nash helped stabilize the teleportation array, William began distributing the Neon Battleship to each storefront and calling those who ordered them.
"Did the Neon Battleship arrive?" Jakari, the first to discover the Neon Star Tower, asked the clerk.
To earn money for the final payment of the Neon Battleship, he couldn’t help but remember the hardships they endured this past year.
Thus, hearing the Neon Battleship had finally arrived, he quickly put everything down and went to the nearest Neon Star Tower.
"They’re here. You just need to confirm the final payment and you’ll get the battleship."
Filled with excitement, Jakari quickly processed the final payment, paying 7 billion without a second thought.
After storing a thousand battleships in his storage ring, Jakari met up with their team to test the fleet.
"Is it as powerful as it was advertised?" everyone muttered in doubt and expectation.
Although they had already tested the ship in the virtual world, they didn’t know whether the real thing would be the same.
"Let’s see. Come on, deploy each one. If it’s fake, we’ll take them to Azure Security and make them pay," Jakari said coldly.
Having paid such an amount, he expected these Neon Battleships to work as promised. If not, Jakari and all those who bought the ships would storm the Neon Star Tower.
Soon, after deploying a thousand ships, Jakari boarded one.
"To the closest dark beast nest. Take most of our fleet just in case."
Taking final measures, they drove the Neon Battleships to a dark beast nest.
Because of the low concentration of dark energy in the vicinity, most of what powered the ship was still void energy.
Although consumption had been low, probably because most was supplemented by dark energy, they still weren’t sure of the ship’s effectiveness.
Traveling to the wild void area where the dark energy was densest, they were full of expectation.
"Now, let’s see the magic!"
Switching to full dark-ship mode, they watched as the dwindling void energy storage suddenly stopped decreasing.
Maneuvering the ship, it not only did not slow down from the sudden shift, but it was even faster, like a fish returning to the sea.
"This-amazing! It truly is a battleship made of dark technology!"
Controlling the ship as if it were their own body, they began to bombard the nest of dark beasts without regard to energy cost.
Previously, every time they raided such a nest, they were careful, aiming as accurately as possible.
Now, unconcerned with precision, they wanted only destruction.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
With the bombardment of a thousand tier 6 battleships, the small nest of dark beasts was quickly cleared.
Aside from a tier 7 dark beast, nothing intact remained on the scene.
"Hahaha, now this is what I call true suppression!"
"Dark beasts? Hah! Just free money on the road."
Watching their merits quickly skyrocket, they couldn’t wait to go to the next scene.
One after another, they hunted small-scale nests without any tier 8 dark beasts, going on a rampage as if in a frenzy.
Days passed, and seeing their merits soar like never before, they felt like they were dreaming.
Previously, even though they could earn merits like a rocket, the fuel needed was massive.
Besides some reserves, there wasn’t even enough for them to train.
Now, with a dark-technological battleship needing no energy besides the cancerous dark energy that dark beasts provided, it cost nothing!
"No, this is not enough. We need to buy more!" Jakari muttered, waking up.
If a thousand Neon Battleships already had this effect, what about ten thousand? A hundred thousand? Or even a million? Wouldn’t they be invincible?
"We need to buy more! The more, the better!"
Suddenly, as if remembering something, apprehension rose in their hearts.
"What if it’s already sold out?"
A few days had passed; with the frenzy about the Neon Battleship, the quota should be gone.
"Let’s just go back and see," Jakari muttered with a frown.
Having just experienced the power of the Neon Battleship, they couldn’t recover quickly and let the days go by.
Jakari could only pray that the others were in the same state and still savoring the wonder of the ship.
---
Soon, returning to the Azure Public Trading Zone, they ran to the nearest Neon Star Tower.
"Is there still a Neon Battleship?!" Jakari asked after barging through the door.
"Haha, this kid is out of luck. The quota for the Neon Battleship is already gone!"
"You’re too late. We checked before and there was no quota left."
Unlike Jakari, who was still doubtful, most had ordered another battleship after paying for the previous one.
Hearing that Magistrate Marcellin ordered a few hundred thousand sets, how could it be fake?
Hearing the jeers of the crowd, Jakari felt down.
It seemed he was still too late.
"Sir? Are you Jakari from the Heliceed team?" Suddenly, a receptionist recognized him.
"Huh? You know me?"
"Yes, you are one of the key customers of the Neon Star Tower. Your appearance was noted by all our branches."
"How can I? What’s the use of it?"
Although having his information shared among different shops was alarming, Jakari cared more about the benefits.
"Nothing else. As you are only a first-level key customer, you are eligible for product priority."
"Does this mean I can still buy a Neon Battleship?"
"Yes. However, the limit is only 3,000 units."
"What?!"
Upon hearing the receptionist’s words, not only was Jakari shocked, but everyone in the store was stunned.
Key members had priority even though all the quotas for Neon Battleship were out? What did this man even do to deserve becoming a key member of the Neon Star Tower?
"I-can I still order a Neon Battleship?" Coming back to his senses, Jakari couldn’t help but confirm.
"Yes. Currently you have a priority quota for the Neon Battleship. Would you like to use it?"
"That’s great! I want to use all the quota!"
"In that case, please follow me to complete the procedure..."
While Jakari and his team were taken to another room, the crowd in the store buzzed with curiosity.
