Chapter 352 - 350: Rubble’s Gift

Chapter 352: Chapter 350: Rubble’s Gift

Nian Shutong ignored Rubble’s "concern" and Ha Ha’s translation, and after soothing Ha Ha, she headed to Rubble’s workshop to see what exactly this gift was.

Coming along with her was Ji Sisi, who had been involved in the entire process of creating this gift and had even cried with joy the day it was finished.

The three of them entered Rubble’s workshop together.

It wasn’t until Nian Shutong stepped inside that she made an observation: it seemed as if this mountain was about to be completely hollowed out!

"Rubble, are you sure it’s safe to dig into the mountain like this?"

"Ms. Nian Shutong, please refrain from questioning Rubble with your limited knowledge."

Fine! She had asked one question too many.

However, Nian Shutong shot Rubble a threatening glance, "Do you still want to get paid or not?"

"I do."

Rubble clamped his mouth shut, holding back a thousand complaints in his heart, not very happy and even appearing a bit wronged.

Every time Rubble told the truth, no one liked to hear it.

In the past, this was how everyone in the Mechanical Clan spoke.

Rubble continued to lead Nian Shutong further inside, and now his workshop was divided into several areas.

There were areas for producing agricultural machinery, popcorn machines, and all sorts of things that Nian Shutong didn’t recognize. In short, every space was arranged very full, very full.

Nian Shutong felt as if she had walked a long distance until they finally arrived at a place with a door.

Her first reaction upon seeing this door was that it was an expensive door.

She might not understand the market, but with such material, it felt like she could just leave a fist imprint with one punch.

To think that nowadays, slicing a small hill with her hand wasn’t even a challenge for her.

"Rubble, what material is this made of?"

Nian Shutong thought that this material would also be great for artifact refining.

"etghdinf3765 material."

Nian Shutong simply turned her head woodenly towards Rubble and said, "Write it down later and send it to me."

"Ms. Nian Shutong, Rubble thinks you really should have your head examined, that sequence of numbers is quite brief."

"I know! It’s not that I can’t remember; I just don’t want to!"

Nian Shutong pointed at the door in front of her and said, "Hurry up and open it! I’m in a rush to make money."

The words ’to make money’ were equally important to Rubble.

"Next time you have something this important, Ms. Nian Shutong, you must say so first."

Rubble, done with his complaints, flung the door open and walked in with Nian Shutong and Ji Sisi.

Beside them, Ji Sisi’s breathing clearly quickened, her eyes filled with anticipation, and her hands nervously clenched into fists, waiting for the moment Nian Shutong would see the gift.

The workshop was extremely spacious, with walls coated in an unidentified material.

Nian Shutong guessed it must be quite expensive too, or else it wouldn’t match the upscale door outside.

At the very center, there was something as tall as a few stories, currently concealed by a massive silver-white cloth.

Were they preparing for a reveal ceremony? Rubble even thought of this—it didn’t quite add up.

"Mr. Nian, will you do the honors?"

Nian Shutong turned to Ji Sisi, who was even more excited than herself, and asked, "You arranged the cloth?"

Ji Sisi didn’t speak but kept nodding.

That’s what she thought—Rubble wasn’t the type to manage something like this.

Nian Shutong stepped forward, grabbing a corner of the cloth; this was something only she could do—Fu Yunhe might not even manage to pull it off.

Lost in her thoughts, Nian Shutong swung her arm forcefully, and the silver-white cloth made a swooshing sound as it was pulled down.

But obediently, the cloth landed neatly on the ground, almost folding itself.

At that moment, Nian Shutong’s gaze shifted from staring straight ahead to moving upwards.

She looked up, then looked up some more.

Involuntarily, she took a few steps back to get a clear view of the colossal figure before her.

A bright red Mecha.

She had once seen it on the huge virtual screen in the middle of the Transfer Station, endlessly looping: these Mecha combat clips.

It had to be said that even though the legacy of Cultivation had been severed, humans always found a way to create powerful things of their own.

This Mecha was one of them.

Even Nian Shutong had to admit that this thing was really strong.

"Is this for me?"

"Yes, do you like it, Ms. Nian Shutong? This is the first Mecha that Rubble made."

In Rubble’s words, there was his unique pride.

Nian Shutong absolutely gave him high praise, she stepped back a few paces, and stood next to Rubble.

"I really like it, thank you, Rubble."

"Rubble, you are really super amazing."

"You’re welcome, Wally knows Rubble is amazing."

The three of them stood there watching the Mecha for a while, but there was a problem—Nian Shutong truly didn’t know how to use it.

Ji Sisi volunteered, raising her hand to Nian Shutong, "Mr. Nian, I can! I can!"

"Okay, I got it, I’ll look for you to teach me when I want to try it out."

Looking at the Mecha in front of her, although it was good, she wasn’t sure she would use it much.

She thought about it and then asked Rubble.

"Rubble, since you’ve given it to me, can I let someone else use it?"

Rubble looked at Nian Shutong in confusion and said, "The gift I gave you is yours, I have no right to dictate."

"No, I mean, would you be upset if I let someone else use it?"

"Why would Rubble be upset?"

"Heh heh——never mind."

Nian Shutong didn’t ask any further and straightforwardly said to Ji Sisi, "If you like it, you can try it yourself, but go somewhere where there are no people."

"Me!" Ji Sisi pointed to herself incredulously and then at the Mecha.

"Yes, you."

Perhaps Xiao He too, but he would have to wait until he was better to discuss it.

At this point, Ji Sisi was even more excited; she really, really loved it.

She felt she had found the love of her life, and that was Mecha.

The process of creating it, and the joy of success, was indeed incomparable to anything else.

Nian Shutong left Rubble’s workshop, leaving him and Ji Sisi to continue their research.

Once outside, Nian Shutong flew off in the Shadowless, and started to search throughout Blue Star for stones, wood, or jade.

She wanted to earn money, so the Skill of carving was going to go online.

This time, she was going to earn big.

She would find wood, stones, and jade, making a large piece from each.

Three items, three large pieces, all specifically to earn money, a lot of money.

Nian Shutong began her search, with wood being the easiest to find. Once she chose the right type of wood, she cut down the tree and took it away.

Next, she found the stone, one that roughly matched the shape Nian Shutong had in mind, and she took it directly.

The last one was jade.

This was slightly more difficult and needed a slow, careful search.

If she couldn’t find it by day, she planned to return and start with carving the two items she had already found.

"Master, there seems to be some energy fluctuations over there."

Energy fluctuations?

At the time, Nian Shutong was in a desert.

It wasn’t the Moon-shaped Spring as before but another desert. Or perhaps it was half desert, half Gobi desert.

She also sensed the energy fluctuations, but jade shouldn’t have any energy, should it?
