Chapter 1073

"Making money, it's nothing to be ashamed of."

"Hahahaha, this Shuojin is still daydreaming; I can only say he's really good at dreaming."

"Right now, dreaming is all Shuojin can do."

"I can only say, Miss Topaz did a beautiful job."

March 7th looked at the content in the game's plot and realized, "So this is why Shuojin appeared as the spokesperson for the IPC mechs earlier; he really is a guy whose brain was clouded by greed."

Welt Yang adjusted his glasses and said, "The conditions Miss Topaz offered Shuojin were indeed generous enough. Given Shuojin's profit-driven nature, he naturally wouldn't let this opportunity go."

【In the game's plot, after listening to Topaz's explanation, Lu Ka also realized the truth and said, "So… that's how it is. I truly owe you a favor now."】

【Topaz shook her head slightly and said, "Don't say that. I was just dealing with a minor public opinion problem."】

【"Shuojin shouldn't have dragged the IPC into a public opinion storm just to defeat you."】

【As she spoke, a faint trace of mockery flashed in Topaz's eyes, and she said, "So I gave him a chance—to refuse me to my face and continue opposing the IPC with a clear stance. Unfortunately, he didn't do it."】

Livestream Room.

"Haha, that's true. If Shuojin hadn't dragged both Lu Ka and the Interastral Peace Corporation into the public opinion storm, even if Miss Topaz really wanted to help, the IPC probably wouldn't have cooperated so easily."

"After all, when it comes down to it, the Interastral Peace Corporation also puts interests first."

"How could that Shuojin possibly refuse Miss Topaz's proposal? He caused all these things precisely for the sake of profit."

"Born of greed, and will die of greed. It's truly ironic, Shuojin."

"Shuojin, you can go in peace. You've taught me a lesson this time, letting me know how to handle rhythm and public opinion."

Lieutenant Yanqing looked at the content in the game's plot and sighed, "Miss Topaz's methods are truly formidable. It's fortunate she has no malice toward Lu Ka."

General Jing Yuan smiled and said, "One of the IPC's Ten Stonehearts, how could she be an ordinary person?"

The Zhuming Xianzhou.

Seeing the public opinion storm subside, Yunli also breathed a sigh of relief. When Lu Ka was previously subjected to public opinion and cyberbullying, Yunli almost crushed the hilt of her old iron sword out of shape.

Huaiyan stroked his beard and sighed, "Young people these days are truly incredible. Hahaha…"

【In the game's plot, Lu Ka nodded upon hearing this, but still had doubts, saying, "But I really don't understand, why did you want me to defeat your mech product?"】

【Topaz laughed, "You mean… 【Next-Gen Power Combat Armor ARMS】? Haha, that's just some old, slow-selling inventory."】

【Lu Ka was stunned for a moment upon hearing this.】

Livestream Room.

"Good guy, it can even be like this."

"Hahahaha, although for the IPC, no matter who wins this martial arts competition, they will always make a profit. But to actually use old-model mechs for Shuojin, that's really something."

"After all, if Shuojin wins, the IPC can just happen to sell off their old inventory."

"It's true. I can only say, others might make a small profit, but the IPC never loses. It's truly terrifying."

"A behemoth like the Interastral Peace Corporation, if they really want to deal with someone, it must be easy. Shuojin can only blame himself for running into the IPC's muzzle."

Himeko looked at the plot in the game and couldn't help but laugh, saying, "The IPC is indeed still the IPC; they will never give up the possibility of profit."

Welt Yang adjusted his glasses and said, "It is also because of this that the Interastral Peace Corporation can become the behemoth it is today."

【In the game's plot, Lu Ka was silent for a moment, looking at the billboard with his own image on the side, and sighed, "Even the billboard is ready. It seems I have no choice but to sign this endorsement contract?"】

【Topaz comforted him, "Don't have too much psychological burden. Among the current contestants of the Wardance Ceremony, except for a certain wanted criminal, you are the only one who hasn't accepted the IPC's sponsorship."】

【Hearing the words 【wanted criminal】, Lu Ka's curiosity was piqued, and he said, "Wanted criminal? Who is that?"】

Livestream Room.

"Wanted criminal, besides our old friend Popo Shark, who else could it be."

"Hahahaha, god damn his Wubbaboo Popo Shark."

"Don't say that, isn't this nickname for Boothill quite interesting?"

"Especially his teeth, hahaha, they really look like it."

(Good Li's) Speaking of which, I was influenced by the public opinion storm caused by that kid Shuojin earlier and almost forgot that the champion Lu Ka is facing in this round is Boothill."

"Indeed, as a Galaxy Ranger, Boothill often opposes the IPC. His combat experience is far greater than Lu Ka's, and his strength is also far beyond Lu Ka's. This match is really a bit precarious."

"Indeed, Lu Ka is in danger."

"I have to say, this part is truly ironic. According to Topaz, except for Boothill, who has a blood feud with the IPC and didn't cooperate, all other contestants have cooperated with the IPC. As a result, it was Lu Ka, who didn't cooperate with the IPC, who became a 'running dog of the IPC' under public opinion."

"Ha, saying it like this is truly speechless. I can't tell if it's ridiculous or pathetic."

"A fall into the pit, a gain in your wit. Just going through this plot once has made me feel quite a lot."

"Fortunately, it's over. However, although Lu Ka is no longer affected by public opinion, the opponent he has to face next is Boothill. I guess he won't win unless Boothill goes easy on him."

The Luo Fu Xianzhou.

Exalting Sanctum.

After playing through the Penacony plot, Lieutenant Yanqing naturally knows Boothill. Because of this, Lieutenant Yanqing is not optimistic about Lu Ka's next match.

General Jing Yuan also sighed, "A Galaxy Ranger… this little brother Lu Ka might have to truly face a strong enemy."

【In the game's plot, Topaz smiled slightly, didn't tell Lu Ka directly, and said quite mysteriously, "Don't be in such a hurry~ At this rate, you will meet him very soon."】

【"I have other things to attend to, so I'll go first. You can slowly admire your own poster here."】

【Watching Topaz about to leave, Lu Ka sincerely thanked her again. In any case, Topaz had indeed helped him.】
