Chapter 500: Li Hao and A Youyou's Vacation Activities

The Moon.

Su Yu looked at the two sycophants before her, completely speechless. "A Youyou, a young lady should be a bit more reserved. Do you really have to do this?"

"We're just going to relax, travel, see some historical sites, and find some inspiration." A Youyou blushed; even a fool wouldn't believe that.

"Aunt, with me here, what are you afraid of? I guarantee I'll follow her 24 hours a day, providing close protection!" Dita patted her chest.

Su Yu didn't believe a word of it. She was conflicted too; who could have imagined Li Hao would actually get his hands on the Ocean Heart? This guy was actually quite reliable. Thinking of the Ocean Heart, Su Yu's heart melted. She had already found a master jewelry designer at the first opportunity, intending to have it crafted perfectly. The thought of that scene at the upcoming banquet, where she would be the center of everyone's attention, was just wonderful.

A Youyou and Dita looked at each other, then at the beaming Su Yu. "Aunt, are you in love?" Dita couldn't help but ask.

Su Yu was taken aback and rolled her eyes. "Hmph, men are like clothes; you'll understand when you're older. Both of you, pull yourselves together. A Youyou, if you're looking for inspiration, then actually look for it. Before you get the family's approval, don't take that final step. That is the bottom line, otherwise, none of us will have a good time. Dita, don't laugh, you're in the same boat."

"Hehe, I'm just going to see the grasshoppers this time; the Moon doesn't have any." Dita smiled slyly.

"Fine, stay safe, and... tell him thank you for me." Su Yu said. After all, having received such a heavy gift, she had truly thought Li Hao was just making empty promises. Now, it wasn't even a matter of it being priceless; as new mecha and various improved materials all required the K23 Element, the Ocean Heart was already beyond value. And she actually possessed one. How could someone as vain as Su Yu not be happy?

As long as a woman is happy, nothing else matters.

"Why thank him? This is what he should do. He should be showing us proper respect in the future," Dita said dismissively.

"What does that have to do with you?"

"Oh god, without me covering for..." Dita subconsciously covered her mouth again. "Hehe, it's nothing, we're all good friends. Without my help, how could Tianjing Mecha have won the championship?"

Dita was quite confident about this point; she had known Li Hao and the others since they were nobodies, and this was absolutely sincere.

Su Yu naturally arranged for "Arths" to go into seclusion for creation, while A Youyou and Dita happily slipped away to Earth, like caged birds released. The thought of the upcoming adventure was thrilling—Ancient Civilization, Terrorist Organization, a joint operation by top experts from the Four Great War Zones; what could be more exciting than this?

Missing the Tianqi Youth Class had made Dita very upset, feeling like she was missing something. This mission could at least balance things out and earn her recognition from Tianqi.

On the spaceship, A Youyou quietly gazed at the brilliant starry sky outside the window and the blue planet, humming a melodious tune softly. A captivating smile graced her face, and under the starlight, she appeared exceptionally moving...

Upon picking up A Youyou, Li Hao was full of joy; this time, there were finally no third wheels around.

"Senior, your smile is a bit devious. Do you have some evil plan?" A Youyou suddenly poked him.

Li Hao pushed the luggage with one hand, smiling foolishly. "No, no."

"Then what are you grinning about!"

"I'm happy. I thought we were going to be apart for a long time." Li Hao held A Youyou's hand tightly. In truth, he didn't care about being an S-Tournament Champion, and whether A Youyou was Arths or not didn't matter either.

"Then what plans do you have?"

"I asked the principal for leave. From now on, I'll follow the Captain's orders." Li Hao's attitude was incredibly upright, though he kept holding A Youyou's hand tightly.

"That depends on whether you, this little soldier, are qualified. I'm very strict."

"Yo yo, there's no one more qualified than me." As he spoke, he walked out of the airport and picked A Youyou up directly.

He was truly carefree. The itinerary was certainly packed, but he had to take A Youyou to the hotel first. They had agreed to change clothes and go out for food, but as soon as they entered, A Youyou was picked up, and with a gasp, the clothes on her body were torn apart with a rip...

When A Youyou came out, she was still blushing, the lingering sensations not yet faded. She was prepared to accept everything; as for Su Yu's warnings, she hadn't cared about them at all. However, how could Su Yu not know? Girls will be girls, and talking was useless. She had specifically called to warn Li Hao, giving her some time to negotiate with the family so that future resistance would be less.

The ball was kicked to Li Hao, and Li Hao was in a tough spot too. He gave it his all, and of course, he didn't feel aggrieved, but the two of them were entangled for quite a while. He had many things he wanted to try, just like a novice, especially facing a goddess-like existence such as A Youyou. A Youyou was also stunned by Li Hao's variety...

The two found some local street snacks. A Youyou ate happily, though her long, beautiful legs were a bit sore. Li Hao, in high spirits, didn't care what he ate, and then they took a taxi to the orphanage.

"Where is your Gold Medal 567?"

"Still at the shop. Ah, I would have forgotten if you hadn't mentioned it. When I have time, I have to go see the boss; I do have shares in the shop now, after all." Li Hao laughed, staring at A Youyou without blinking. Even if it wasn't Arths's appearance, there was a spiritual pull for Li Hao... the costume change was also very special.

"Stop looking at me like that." A Youyou pushed Li Hao.

The taxi driver in front laughed. "It's fine, you two continue. I was young once too; back in the day, there were at least eighty girls chasing me."

"Aren't people from Tianjing supposed to be reserved? Is that just a legend?" A Youyou couldn't help but laugh.

"That depends on the situation."

By the time Li Hao and A Youyou arrived, A Youyou's gifts had already arrived. Li Hao had been curious at first, but later realized he had overthought it; Daliven always sent gifts by the truckload, especially since there were so many children at the orphanage.

The little ones had been fighting over the gifts, but seeing Li Hao and A Youyou arrive, they swarmed over like crazy, chattering away. A few even wanted to challenge Li Hao.

The director was also happy and brought them into the room. "You actually had time to come back? I thought you'd be busy beyond measure."

"Director, you know me. I'm as lazy as I can be. This time, luck played the biggest part."

The director smiled. "A Youyou, thank you for the gifts. The little ones all love them."

"Auntie, you're too polite."

The orphanage's demolition crisis had been resolved, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Li Hao had also become everyone's pride. "Are you two going back tonight?"

"No, we're staying here." Li Hao and A Youyou had already discussed it; A Youyou also wanted to understand Li Hao's life.

Hearing this news, the director was also happy and went off to get busy. Li Hao and A Youyou went into the courtyard. A Youyou led a circle of children in singing and dancing, while Li Hao told another circle of children how he had punched the Southern Mountains and kicked the Northern Seas, and how powerful he was. He had the group of little brats wide-eyed and stunned, but as he kept talking, he noticed that the number of people on his side was getting smaller and smaller, all running over to A Youyou's side to sing and dance...

He wished time could just stop right there.

The boundless Pacific Ocean, surging with waves, vast and infinite. A patch of reef was exposed on the sea surface; fishermen would avoid this area as it was full of hidden reefs and whirlpools.

At this moment, under the sea, a submarine was approaching the reef. The reef group, which only showed a little bit above the water, stretched out like a hill beneath the surface. The submarine slowly drove into it. Suddenly, a hole opened in the reef, the submarine entered, the rocks closed, and with a burst of bubbles, it was as if nothing had happened.

By now, the nuclear submarine had entered the port. What came into view was a grand military base, where rows of various submarines and some strange-looking disc-shaped vessels were docked.

Kevin, Zuo Xiaotang, and Cheng Konghai had arrived.

This was a secret base of the Brotherhood on Earth, and some people had already arrived.

Zuo Xiaotang was wearing a T-shirt and carrying a backpack filled with Zero Type, looking like he was on vacation. Kevin and Ant were also dressed casually.

Anlita was in charge of the reception, with a few staff members behind her. They were already used to this; these people who looked plainly dressed were all extraordinary experts.

Anlita frowned when she saw Zuo Xiaotang. "Why are you here?"

Kevin smiled. "Zuoge's strength is super strong, why can't he come? He said there's someone here he wants to see."

Zuo Xiaotang's face turned red instantly, and he looked at Anlita shyly.

"Hehe, don't blame me for not warning you if you die and there's no one to bury you," Anlita said indifferently.

"Not afraid, not afraid," Zuo Xiaotang waved his hands quickly. "With so many experts here, no matter how many come, we'll take care of them."

"Coward!" Saying this, Anlita led the three of them into the base. "Most of the others have arrived, and they've already started training with the new-style Mecha. You can make your choice as well."

Although Meraphis Military Industry had developed the latest K23 Mecha, pilots still needed to adapt to its operation, especially since the operation of this Mecha consumed quite a bit of physical stamina and Golden Zone, requiring further proficiency. This was also the ultimate weapon for this engagement against Noah's Ark.

Zuo Xiaotang was like a country bumpkin visiting the Grand View Garden, curiously sizing up everything around him. It was too exaggerated; it didn't look big from the outside, but the further in he went, the more magnificent it became. "How much must this have cost?"

"This is a submarine karst cave structure, not entirely excavated," Anlita said. Passing through security doors one after another, a completely modernized base appeared before their eyes.

On the Moon side, Maxis, Laika, and the others had all arrived, with only Dita and A Youyou missing. On the Hunter side, Chao Qinglong, Luobiao Fei, and the others had also arrived and were already trying out the new Mecha. It was evident that both sides were getting along quite harmoniously.

"Not easy, is it? To think you didn't start fighting," Li Hao laughed.

"Not at all, the past is in the past, and everyone isn't a child anymore. This time, we must cooperate sincerely," Anlita laughed.

Rumble, rumble, rumble...

The two new-style fighter jets currently sparring were fighting a bit too fiercely. Anlita couldn't help but frown and opened her Skycom. "You two, take it easy. If you break them, you'll have to fix them. Save your energy for fighting the people from Noah!"

"Where is Xilian?" Kevin asked.

"Be more polite," Anlita rolled her eyes. "Do you think the boss is that free?"

Anlita also didn't know what the boss was thinking. The manpower was suddenly sufficient this time, but she hoped there wouldn't be internal problems. She first led Zuo Xiaotang and the others to familiarize themselves with the environment. "Venus, match their identity programs."

The cute little sprite seen at the Moon Base appeared again, sizing up Zuo Xiaotang. "How did this little fatty sneak in? Is he a spy? Do you want me to finish him off?"

Zuo Xiaotang was startled and hurriedly waved his hands. "No, no, I'm with them. I... I'm very strong!"

Zuo Xiaotang suddenly felt, why should he be a coward? He immediately puffed out his chest. He was a World Championship champion, after all. Who's afraid!

The little sprite giggled and spun a few circles in the air. "Anlita, he's so silly. Will someone like this really not get in the way? Should I throw him into the Pacific Ocean to feed the fish?"

"Alright, if you keep talking, he's going to take it seriously," Anlita said helplessly. Venus, on the other hand, was incredibly happy; the Humans who came here were no fun and treated her like a tool. Only this one was interesting.

Zuo Xiaotang patted his chest and let out a big sigh of relief. "You're so cute. Anlita, is she this intelligent? Does she have autonomous consciousness?"

The little sprite Venus put her hands on her hips. "What do you mean by 'intelligent'? Are you implying I'm just a program? I am a life form! Anlita, he's insulting me, I want to finish him off!"

"Do as you please." They were all problem children, and she didn't know what the boss was thinking. The others were one thing, but why bring an unstable factor like Zuo Xiaotang?

No sooner had she spoken than *zap*, an electric spark struck Zuo Xiaotang. Zuo Xiaotang was shocked and immediately sprang up. "Ouch! You dare shock me? You're playing for real!"

Saying this, he lunged at Venus. The little sprite immediately drifted and turned, circling behind Zuo Xiaotang. *Zap*, another hit. Zuo Xiaotang, despite his thick skin, was left numb by the electricity and began a capture operation, moving left and right, jumping up and down.

"Kevin, you guys really dare to bring someone with this kind of IQ."

"With his personality, he would have run away long ago in a situation like this, but for the sake of someone, he went ahead regardless. He's used up all the courage of his life," Kevin laughed.

Anlita glared. "Don't cause trouble!"

Kevin waved his hands helplessly. "You know his situation better than I do. Anyway, Second Brother said he's handed over to you. How you torment him is your business, just keep him alive."

"Oh, you mean your weak spot has been grasped by me?" Anlita said indifferently.

"What 'grasped' or not? We are partners now, we're here to help," Kevin laughed nonchalantly.

"Alright, Zuo Xiaotang, how childish can you be? Come over here quickly." Watching Zuo Xiaotang, who was having more and more fun playing with Venus, Anlita was speechless.

Zuo Xiaotang immediately trotted over, wiggling his butt. "Anlita, Venus is so amazing and cute. Can I be friends with her?"

Zuo Xiaotang looked at Anlita with anticipation, but before Anlita could answer, Venus was displeased. "You want to be friends with me? Shouldn't you be asking me?"

"Ah, right. Look at my head. Can we be friends?"

"Hmph, no, you're too stupid!" Venus stuck out her tongue and made a face. Zuo Xiaotang wasn't angry; the more he looked at Venus, the cuter she seemed, and he wanted to reach out and touch her. The little sprite flew away directly, spun around, and disappeared.

"Wow, look, she's gone! Wow, that's amazing!" Zuo Xiaotang said, dancing with joy.

Kevin and Anlita looked at each other. Kevin felt a bit embarrassed. "That... you can torment him a bit harder."

Anlita led the two to the Mecha warehouse. The doors opened, and rows of various Mobile Suits were neatly arranged. *Tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap... *

(The werewolf playing the Prophet is too ruthless; he's walked all over my path. What am I, the real Prophet, supposed to do? Preparing the ultimate move, Hasaki~~~)
