Chapter 12: Dark Alloy

After speaking, Ye Cang ignored the obstructions of Du Kaao and Huang Lao and resolutely walked toward the outside.

That retreating figure, it was impossible to describe how desolate it looked.

Anyone who saw it would be moved by it.

Of course, Huang Lao was no exception.

At this moment, Huang Lao could not care about anything else; he walked over quickly and blocked Ye Cang's path once again.

"Is there anything else, Huang Lao?" Ye Cang asked with a desolate look on his face.

"Little Ye, wait a moment. Little Du and I didn't mean it that way. Let's sit down and talk it over slowly, alright?" Huang Lao said.

However, Ye Cang had no intention of stopping at all and continued to walk outside.

"Huang Lao, I understand what you mean. Rest assured, I am the one who gave up on the Nantianmen Project; it has nothing to do with you. Today, only three people know about our conversation, and there won't be a fourth person who knows."

After these words were spoken, Huang Lao nearly vomited blood upon hearing them!

That was not what he meant at all!

When he spoke of talking it over properly, he meant it literally—to truly have a good talk.

It was not at all what Ye Cang was saying.

At this moment, Huang Lao finally understood what it meant to feel powerless.

At the same time, there was one more thing Huang Lao could not figure out.

Ye Cang, a 23-year-old college student, why was he so good at talking!

One must know that Ge Xiaolun was the same age as Ye Cang, but Ge Xiaolun's mind was filled only with Du Qiangwei.

Seeing that Ye Cang was about to leave again, Huang Lao could not care about much else.

He immediately signaled for Du Kaao to come over.

Du Kaao did not hesitate and walked over quickly.

He knew that if Ye Cang really canceled the Nantianmen Project today... the consequences would be simply unimaginable!

"Ye Cang, listen to me!" Du Kaao said. "I really didn't mean it that way. Don't cancel the Nantianmen Project!"

"I think your Nantianmen Project is excellent and can definitely continue. I apologize to you for my previous words, alright!"

However, Ye Cang now completely ignored this opening from Du Kaao.

"General Du Kaao, you don't need to apologize to me. It is my fault, not yours."

As Ye Cang spoke, he revealed a sorrowful smile.

"As a general, you naturally see things much further than a researcher like me who just talks big!"

"It is my fault, it is all my fault!"

Ye Cang's words left Du Kaao speechless.

This kid, his words were sharp and biting! It was too hateful!

He had only been speaking casually, and yet...

Taking a deep breath to adjust his emotions, Du Kaao then spoke again: "Ye Cang, I'm sorry, I was truly wrong before."

"I retract my words, forgive me!"

"The Nantianmen Project really cannot stop! It is truly excellent!"

Ye Cang had wanted to say a few more things, but then he thought that he shouldn't go too far, or else he might delay some matters.

Thinking of this, Ye Cang nodded.

"Alright, then I won't stop the Nantianmen Project, General Du Kaao."

Once these words were out, Huang Lao and Du Kaao both let out a sigh of relief at the same time.

They had finally persuaded this kid; *sob, sob, sob*, it was truly not easy.

But before the two could be happy for more than ten seconds, Ye Cang suddenly said again: "Hey, although I won't stop it, I plan to postpone the Nantianmen Project indefinitely!"

Du Kaao:??!

Huang Lao:??!!

Postpone indefinitely... Damn it!

After talking with them, the Nantianmen Project was being postponed indefinitely; who would believe it had nothing to do with them!

That hateful Ye Cang!

"Why must you postpone it indefinitely? Little Ye?" Huang Lao asked.

Upon hearing this, Ye Cang immediately put on a miserable expression.

"Sigh, no money! I have no choice but to postpone it indefinitely!"

"I've decided to talk about it again once I have money!"

Hearing this answer, Du Kaao really wanted to vomit blood.

No, he could not let Ye Cang postpone it indefinitely!

Thinking of this, Du Kaao hurriedly said: "Is it just a lack of money? That's a small problem. I can divert some from my end for you! How about that!"

Ye Cang's face lit up with joy upon hearing this.

"Good! Thank you, General Du Kaao!" Ye Cang said. "But, I'm also lacking materials, what do you think?"

Regarding Ye Cang's insatiable greed, Du Kaao very much wanted to refuse, but he found himself unable to, and could only grit his teeth and spit out two words.

"I'll provide them!"

Hearing that "I'll provide them," Ye Cang beamed with joy.

"Good! Since General Du Kaao and Huang Lao are so generous, then I will not decline. Rest assured, the Nantianmen Project will definitely be completed at the fastest speed!"

After speaking, Ye Cang did not give the two a chance to speak and slipped away in a flash.

Leaving only Du Kaao and Huang Lao standing there alone.

After a long while, Du Kaao said furiously, "Damn it, I actually got played by Ye Cang this time."

"I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it! I truly underestimated him!"

At this moment, Du Kaao was so angry his lungs felt like they were exploding, but he was completely helpless.

Meanwhile, Huang Lao stood there with a calm expression on his face.

He looked at the angry Du Kaao and simply said, "Old Du, we just have to accept this loss."

"Both of us underestimated Ye Cang; we both thought he was just an ordinary college student, but we didn't expect him to be this formidable."

"Now, his Nantianmen Project can no longer be stopped, and after what happened this time, it will surely be completed even faster!"

Du Kaao nodded.

"Huang Lao, you are right. I shouldn't have underestimated him. I originally thought he was a stubborn rogue, but now I know I was wrong!"

"However, it's too late to say anything now. Not only did I fail to achieve my goal by coming here, but I was also ruthlessly extorted; it's truly adding insult to injury!"

Huang Lao naturally understood what Du Kaao meant.

"Old Du, since things have come to this, you can only learn your lesson. As for the funding, I will help you apply for it. Let's go!"

After saying this, the two of them left the place.

As for Ye Cang, he was already sitting in his office, holding back his laughter while checking the system for weapons capable of destroying the Universe.

But after looking for only a few minutes, Ye Cang couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Hahaha!"

"Today is truly a great day. For the first time, someone has voluntarily brought me money and materials. How wonderful!" Ye Cang muttered to himself.

"Du Kaao, oh Du Kaao, did you think you were the only one who could use the 'greater good' to pressure others?"

"Sorry, I know that trick too!"

"It doesn't feel good to be pressured by the 'greater good,' does it? Don't worry, the unpleasant part is yet to come; losing the Dark Alloy will make you feel even worse."

Speaking of this, Ye Cang laughed twice more.

"Hehehe, the Dark Alloy coating for the Nantianmen Project has been delivered to my doorstep automatically. How wonderful!"

Yes, ever since the Nantianmen Project began, Ye Cang had set his sights on the Dark Alloy of the Super Soldier Company.

You have to know, that stuff, the Dark Alloy of the Super Soldier Company, is quite impressive!

The Dark Alloy Armor of the Super Soldier Company is fused with the rarest Dark Titanium.

Once a person wears Dark Alloy Armor fused with Dark Titanium, no current reconnaissance methods can detect them; even Demons, who can fight Angels to a standstill, cannot detect them.

Once the Nantianmen Project has the Dark Alloy coating, it will be a fatal blow to the Taotie!
