Chapter 394: Avatar Deployment
"Claptrap, do you know what Superficial Courtesy is?" Li Yu walked out of the Training Room and asked casually.
"Superficial Courtesy?" The Splinter Deployment Armor of the [Titan Colonization Armor] fell down, forming a Unicycle Robot, following behind Li Yu.
Humanized confusion surfaced in its large mechanical eyes.
"Superficial Courtesy means, although I said this, I actually don't mean this." Li Yu chuckled lightly:
"For example, this deputy director, although he verbally said he could wait to see me after my work is done, in reality he didn't think so."
Very obviously, that deputy director was just showing a bit of Superficial Courtesy, because normal Artificial Intelligence would completely repeat the dialogue to its master.
However, Claptrap possessed independent Authority. In his cognition, since the other party said to wait until he was done, then just wait.
"Ah?"
Claptrap felt his master's words were somewhat obscure and hard to understand.
Li Yu shook his head: "That's not the case, just let him wait."
......
In the reception room, Berg lowered his head to check the time, his expression changing slightly. He had already waited here for two hours, yet hadn't seen that Legendary Baron...
Oh no... soon to be called Duke. The outside world didn't know Li Yu was about to become an Honorary Duke, but they, the internal personnel, had long heard about it.
Thinking of this, a bit of jealousy involuntarily rose in his heart.
His Family Clan had operated in Returning Star for many years, and he was currently only an Honorary Viscount, perhaps having a chance to become an Honorary Marquis.
Although it was just a change in title and didn't have much practical benefit.
But for a veteran political Family Clan in Returning Star, the impact brought by this kind of honorary noble title was extremely huge.
Berg had struggled for decades before, under the influence of his Family Clan, obtaining the seat of an Honorary Viscount.
And the time Li Yu had belonged to Returning Star wasn't long, yet he was already about to become an Honorary Duke. How could he not be jealous.
But Li Yu's battle record was extremely astonishing, capturing over fifteen A-rank lifeforms in one go, enough to make everyone fall silent.
Thinking of this, Berg also sighed. Individual mighty power made everyone yearn for it, but the higher the life level, the harder it was to improve.
Some resources, even Star Coins could hardly buy.
"Father, how about we leave, he might not want to see us." The youth beside Berg said hesitantly, fear on his face.
"Sit down!" Berg snorted coldly, scolding this disappointing son: "If it wasn't for you, this Idiot, how could I..."
He spoke halfway and didn't continue. This was the other party's territory, every action might be within the other party's vision.
Better not add more laughingstock.
Enno lowered his head somewhat aggrievedly, muttering: "That school isn't a good school anyway, who knew that Troll was actually..."
"Shut up!" Berg scolded coldly, his expression unfriendly. If it wasn't outside, he would have slapped him long ago.
Why didn't he shoot this thing onto the wall back then!
Enno was his second son, and also the stupidest son. He had managed to send his eldest son and third daughter into the Royal Academy.
In the future, they would be the pillars of the Family Clan. And his second son was just a rice weevil, raised for fun.
But it was because of this rice weevil that he had to come to the door to accept others' "humiliation".
Berg grew angrier the more he thought about it. For a Troll to be able to grandiosely appear in an advanced academy already represented that the person behind the other party had a lot of energy.
And this Idiot actually often went to provoke the other party, truly foolish to the core!
"It's just a conflict between descendants, is it necessary to elevate it to such a high level?" Berg also frowned, thinking Li Yu was intentionally humiliating him.
Although just now when the other party's intelligent supervisor inquired, he said he could wait.
But normal people knew that was just a word of Superficial Courtesy. When the intelligent supervisor reported to its master, as long as it wasn't a particularly urgent matter, the other party would basically come out to meet the guest.
And now two hours had passed, and Li Yu's figure was nowhere to be seen.
The greatest possibility was that the other party intentionally left him hanging here to give him a show of strength.
Unfortunately, he didn't know Li Yu's intelligent supervisor took his words seriously.
Li Yu came up from the Training Room and saw Keller running over vigorously.
When this Little Squirt saw him, her expression changed drastically, suddenly changing direction again. Her short legs were like wind and fire wheels, quickly disappearing around the corner.
Li Yu was somewhat Speechless, not knowing what crazy fit this girl was having, and went straight to the reception room.
"Your Excellency Berg, truly sorry, just returned home, simply too many things to do." Li Yu explained gently after coming in.
Berg also hurriedly stood up, an enthusiastic smile piled on his face, extending his hand and saying: "It's fine, understandable."
Berg looked at Li Yu's faultless attitude, his mind slightly relaxing, it was just that he was also somewhat puzzled in his heart. Could it be he really had an urgent matter just now, so he didn't come out to see me?
The two shook hands, and Li Yu asked the other party to sit down. He still didn't know the other party's purpose of visit, thus didn't speak rashly.
And after Berg sat down, he immediately sighed: "Baron Li Yu, I have failed in teaching my son..."
Li Yu blinked, somewhat dumbfounded. And Berg explained on his own, allowing Li Yu to gradually understand exactly what was going on.
Simply put, it was that his son often "bullied" Tu Ying.
As a Troll, it was hard for Tu Ying not to face discrimination in Returning Star, even more so in school.
"...Sigh, I am busy with work and neglected his management, which is why he became so arrogant..." Berg sighed continuously, looking full of regret.
Berg didn't conceal Enno's daily verbal insults towards Tu Ying, instead concealing the situation where Tu Ying later beat up Enno.
This made Enno somewhat dumbfounded. Is this still his own father, why not mention that the Troll beat him into the medical center, taking a full three days to come out.
Berg sighed again: "After I knew about this matter, I felt extremely guilty inside. That child Tu Ying must feel extremely wronged."
"Knowing you returned, I specially came to apologize."
Hearing this, Enno couldn't bear it any longer, saying angrily: "Father, why don't you mention that Tu Ying beat me, and my several Little Brothers, all beaten very miserably by him."
"Shut up!" Berg immediately said angrily: "You deserved that!"
Li Yu watched the farce before him, an inexplicable smile on the corners of his mouth. He thought it was some big matter, turns out it was this kind of small matter.
He wouldn't stoop to arguing with a teenager, moreover Tu Ying had already fought back.
But what was interesting was this Berg. He intentionally didn't mention his son being beaten in front of Enno, and then used words to draw out Enno's anger, making him say it himself.
This way it could better show his sincere attitude. Look... my son was beaten and I didn't even say it, sincere enough, right.
Tsk tsk... these politicians, truly acting all the time.
However, this also gave him a deeper cognition of his current influence.
Berg taking such a big detour and showing exquisite acting skills was nothing more than to appease Li Yu and avoid his anger.
Conflicts between teenagers, Li Yu had no interest in intervening. He pondered for a moment, shaking his head and saying:
"Your Excellency also shouldn't be so angry. It's very normal for conflicts to exist between children, there's no need to specially come apologize."
Exactly!
Enno nodded frantically in his heart. Tu Ying didn't suffer a loss, he already beat him up. He didn't know why his father still brought him over to apologize.
Hearing this, Berg suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. He originally also thought this matter was a small matter.
It was just that he hadn't interacted with Li Yu before and didn't know what kind of person he was.
To avoid a small matter developing into a big matter, he brought Enno here to apologize.
Now seeing Li Yu so easy to talk to, Berg couldn't help but relax, speaking with Superficial Courtesy: "The Baron is indeed a straightforward person. If there's anywhere you can use me in the future, just ask."
Li Yu raised an eyebrow, the smile on his face even more intense: "What a coincidence, I just happen to have a matter I want to ask Your Excellency's opinion on."
Berg's face stiffened. Looking at Li Yu climbing up the pole, he could only force himself to say: "Please speak."
Huh? This sentence seems like Superficial Courtesy. Claptrap was somewhat confused. Li Yu had just talked to it about this kind of thing, it vaguely had some enlightenment.
What Berg just said should be Superficial Courtesy, then why did Master continue to follow up? Didn't Master hear it out?
"I wonder how much garbage is produced in the Central Star System a day?" Li Yu inquired.
He actually wanted to hit on the idea of garbage? Berg's emotions surged internally.
Collecting garbage was a job with huge profits, especially the garbage of the entire Central Star System.
The garbage produced by the Central Star System every day was massive. Various household garbage could all be recycled and reused.
And many valuable things among them could be completely refurbished and sold again. This was a Grey Zone with extremely high profits.
"This... this is the work of subordinates, I don't know the specific data." Berg equivocated.
Li Yu stared at him, making Berg feel somewhat terrified. Then he suddenly smiled: "To be honest with Your Excellency, I recently have a matter that requires a lot of metal materials, but I can only withdraw about 100 million tons from the Logistics Department in a short time."
"So, can I borrow the metal scrap produced daily?"
At his current Status, many things no longer needed to be explained externally.
Just like when communicating with Prince Connor, until the end, Connor didn't press him on what exactly he was going to do with those Alloy Materials.
Metal scrap!
Berg pondered internally. Since Li Yu chose to directly lay his cards on the table with him, he had no way to continue equivocating.
The proportion of metal scrap in household garbage was very small, but smuggled to some small civilizations, it was enough to sell for a very high price.
"I can spend money to buy..." Li Yu spoke again, considered completely sealing off Berg's thought of declining.
Berg pondered slightly in his heart. Although metal scrap could be sold for extremely high prices in small civilizations, wanting to smuggle those things out.
Also required bribing top to bottom, the money spent was also not a little.
Li Yu was currently At the zenith of one's power, Vimala valued him very much, and his relationship with several big shots was very good. It was better to grit his teeth and hop on this line.
Berg didn't think for too long before revealing a smile and saying: "What are you talking about, it's just some garbage, if you want it, it's yours."
"Then thank you very much." Li Yu didn't decline either.
The two then had a pleasant conversation before Berg took Enno and left here.
At the corner, a large and a small figure slowly shifted out, staring at Enno's departing back.
Keller said indignantly: "Actually finding parents, truly a coward."
"You shouldn't be scolded, right?" She looked up at the huge Tu Ying behind her.
Tu Ying silently shook his head: "This matter is too small, he won't care, you're worrying too much."
"Oh..." Keller was thoughtful: "Seems it is indeed like this. It was all because that teacher before often complained to Mother, scaring me into having shadows."
Tu Ying was somewhat Speechless, turning his head and leaving here.
After Berg and Enno left, Li Yu sat in the reception room pondering. He wouldn't leave the Central Star System temporarily.
Building the [Death Star] could only temporarily be held up with metal scrap. However, even metal scrap had gone through multiple purifications. As long as the quantity went up, there was no need to worry about the progress issue.
After considering this issue, Li Yu stretched, opening the System page. Recently there had been a bit too many things, making him almost forget the Avatar Deployment.
Clone One's cooldown had already finished a few days ago, already able to start deployment. He had a bit of expectation in his heart, pressing the [Deploy] button.
[World Deployment searching... Data analyzing... [World List] opened, Host please check.]
After selecting deployment, the System quickly had a reaction.
Li Yu opened the [World List], and three world names flashing with special colors appeared in front of Li Yu.
[Project Power World]
Oh... Li Yu pondered slightly. This world had a special pill that could give people superpowers for five minutes.
For the current him, it wasn't of much use, directly pass.
[District 9 World]
This world was even more valueless, only a large group of alien prawn people hiding on Earth.
Let's see what the last world is, hope it's a useful world.
[Free Guy World]
Uh... Li Yu was somewhat disappointed. These worlds all seemed to have nothing of value, couldn't even pick a general out of the dwarves.
Rare to encounter such a situation once. But this kind of thought didn't last too long, Li Yu's eyes flashing slightly.
He suddenly remembered, items obtained in [Task Mode] basically would be endowed with a certain special ability by the System, related to its original characteristics.
Perhaps these worlds had no value, but if added with the System's endowment, it would be quite different.
It was just... even so, it was very hard for him to extract interest in these three worlds.
He originally wanted to deploy to the [District 9] world, at least it had aliens, maybe there was some black Technology.
But... possessed by gods and demons, he set his gaze on the [Free Guy World], which could be considered half a game world.
And in the game, perhaps there was some bug-level stuff.
Without thinking for too long, he had an idea, changing it to [Task Mode]––[Plunder Valuable Items]
He also couldn't say for sure what could be obtained, so he handed the choice to Number One, letting him freely play.
"Good brother, don't disappoint me..." Li Yu prayed for Clone One.
[Clone One deployed successfully, please check the Task Log after the task ends.]
After the deployment was finished, Li Yu checked the Task Log again. Number Two didn't have any eye-catching rewards in the [Star Wars World] recently, and Number Three still Vanished Without a Trace, not knowing what exactly the situation of his [Marvel] journey was.
