Capítulo 1200: Chapter 245: Laying All the Cards on the Table
The Star Ring Company, its pure white architecture brimming with a sense of technology.
To enter the interior of the Star Ring, several defensive walls need to be passed, each guarded.
The entire building is coursing with strong energy light, as a top-tier tech company, its self-defense is very strong.
From the exterior of the Star Ring, no people can be seen, but upon entering within, nurous guards can be spotted, so of which are purely chanical body intelligent beings.
“Please, Mr. Zeus.” Bern walked in front, with Xu Mo and Thor following behind, flanked by Bern’s children, Lakin and Selena.
“The combat power of these chanical bodies should be strong, right?” Xu Mo asked curiously.
“These are ordinary chanical body beings, combat power at a desperate level, with advanced chanical bodies, all capabilities reaching Skywalker level, though the cost is considerably higher.” Lakin responded beside him, his voice laced with a hint of pride.
In Asgard, their Star Ring is the most advanced R&D tech company, unique in many areas; for instance, the chanical body beings, their developed products are the strongest.
Among them, there are even super terrifying chanical bodies, capable of fully replacing top Skywalkers.
Moreover, unlike humans, these chanical bodies completely obey orders, guarding the Star Ring.
However, Lakin also pondered why they don’t expand production to create a chanical army, thus potentially dominating Asgard.
For this, Lakin has always been grudging, yet naturally, he can’t decide on the thoughts of his elders.
“These chanical bodies are nothing special either.” Selena also voiced from beside, her thoughts sowhat aligning with Lakin’s; both being part of the Star Ring, are more knowledgeable about it than outsiders, clearly aware of the extent of Star Ring’s strength.
These chanical bodies are rely the tip of the iceberg of Star Ring’s power.
Inside the Star Ring, people co and go, all internal staff of the Star Ring; they should now be in the core area of the company.
The Destruction Gloves have already been brought here.
Bern guided forward, smiling as he spoke: “Mr. Zeus, the Destruction Gloves are here, we can send soone to escort them back for you, or you can take them back yourself.”
“I’ll take them back myself.” Xu Mo spoke.
“Alright.” Bern nodded with a smile: “The usual rule, the auction funds need Mr. Zeus to settle in one go.”
“Understood, this ti Thor lent money, he’ll handle the paynt.” Xu Mo said ‘generously’, while Thor beside him twitched internally, wondering if he’d be chastised by his family upon returning.
Such a large sum, even if he uses it, he’d likely be criticized by his family as a prodigal.
“Mr. Bern, I’ll make the paynt.” Thor spoke with feigned bravado, hoping this ‘investnt’ wouldn’t end in loss.
“Alright.” Bern nodded with a smile, aware of so situation but not minding as long as soone pays.
For the Star Ring, the auction value of the Destruction Gloves had already exceeded expectations; they were satisfied.
Bern led Thor to process the paynt, while Xu Mo turned to Lakin and Selena, saying: “I’ve always admired the Star Ring Company, can I have a look around as it’s my first ti here?”
Lakin thought for a mont, then said: “Sure.”
Saying this, he led Xu Mo forward to tour inside the Star Ring Company.
The interior of the Star Ring Company operated like a vast machine, everyone and the chanical bodies busy; however, Xu Mo’s perception extended outward, yet he couldn’t locate the core of the Star Ring, the laboratory he wished to see.
“These cutting-edge products must co from Star Ring’s technology laboratory, right?” Xu Mo probed.
Lakin furrowed his brow, this touched on the Star Ring’s core.
“Of course, all technological products start from research.” Lakin responded.
“I wonder if I could have the opportunity to visit the laboratory of the Star Ring.” Xu Mo inquired.
“The laboratory is the base of the Star Ring, very important; this request is sowhat impolite. Mr. Zeus, in the future, it’s best not to ntion this again.” Lakin’s voice held a hint of unfriendliness.
Xu Mo nodded, saying: “It was inappropriate of . I wonder who founded Star Ring, I would surely like to visit if possible, to express my admiration.”
“My old man, but he doesn’t like eting outsiders.” Lakin replied.
Xu Mo’s eyes flickered upon hearing Lakin’s words, it seed he found the right person.
Lakin’s elder being the founder of Star Ring ant Bern was likely a descendant of Star Ring’s founder.
However, from the looks of it, they wouldn’t allow him direct contact with the founder’s team.
“What are you doing?” At this mont, Bern and Thor approached, having completed the paynt formalities.
“Mr. Zeus wanted to look around the Star Ring.” Lakin spoke.
“Does Mr. Zeus wish to continue touring, I can introduce further.” Bern responded.
“Mr. Bern, could we speak privately?” Xu Mo addressed Bern.
“Hmm?” A flash of curiosity crossed Bern’s face, but he still nodded and said: “Please, Mr. Zeus.”
Saying this, he led Xu Mo off to the side.
Thor watched Xu Mo’s back; was he finally getting to the point?
The two ca to an enclosed area, Xu Mo spoke: “Mr. Bern, the conversation here won’t be overheard by others, right?”
“Rest assured, it won’t.” Bern replied.
“Mr. Bern, my aim in contacting the Star Ring this ti isn’t just for the Destruction Gloves; I have other intentions.” Xu Mo began.
Bern, upon hearing Xu Mo’s words, directed his gaze at him, the previously smiling Bern now exuding a powerful aura.
“So, what is Mr. Zeus’s purpose?” Bern stared at Xu Mo and asked.
“I’m here to visit an elder; an old friend asked to co,” Xu Mo replied.
“Who?” Bern continued to fix his gaze on Xu Mo.
“Mr. Bern, may I see Mr. Fred?” Xu Mo asked, as he kept observing Bern for any reaction.
Upon hearing Xu Mo’s words, Bern’s eyes flickered, a sharp glint appearing and vanishing quickly, accompanied by a surge of strong energy that was suppressed almost instantly, as he smiled and said, “Mr. Zeus, why bother with such boredom? Is playing gas with amusing to you? I’ve never heard this na, nor does Star Ring have such a person.”
“Mr. Bern, I would appreciate it if you could convey the ssage to Mr. Fred: an old friend is visiting, and if Mr. Fred wishes to see , he can contact at any ti, as Mr. Bern already has my contact information,” Xu Mo continued, “I won’t disturb you further, Mr. Bern.”
Saying this, Xu Mo turned to walk away.
He chose this straightforward approach as a last resort.
Fred was in the shadows, extrely mysterious. Even the great figures of Asgard have never t him, let alone Xu Mo, making contact with Fred almost impossible.
Thus, he could only use the auction as an opportunity to get close to Bern and inform him this way.
Judging by Bern’s reaction, it should be correct.
Star Ring, should be created by Fred’s team.
Now, it’s up to Fred’s attitude.
Xu Mo left, and Bern did not see him off.
From this perspective, it was possible to deduce the outco.
After nearly a month of effort, he found where Fred was.
Thor saw Xu Mo returning alone and showed a peculiar expression, then heard Xu Mo say, “Let’s go back.”
“Mr. Lakin, Miss Selena, goodbye,” Xu Mo greeted the two and then walked out with Thor.
After they left, Thor asked Xu Mo, “Brother Zeus, what’s the situation?”
“It’s true, he is an old friend of my teacher. I’ve directly explained my intentions to Bern, but whether he is willing to see is unknown,” Xu Mo replied.
“Wouldn’t be so heartless, right?” Thor comnted.
After all, he’s an illegitimate child.
Coming straight to the door, could he be refused?
“It’s possible Bern kept it hidden,” Xu Mo added.
“That’s not impossible,” Thor nodded, “Is Bern his offspring?”
“It should be,” Xu Mo nodded.
“Half-brothers,” Thor mused, “Brother Zeus, you’d better co back to the Odin Family with for now, otherwise it might be dangerous.”
He felt Xiao Mo was being a bit impulsive, considering the others were direct descendants.
He, this illegitimate child, might face danger.
After Xu Mo and they left.
At Star Ring Company, Lakin and Selena approached Bern, only to find Bern’s gaze somber, staring outside.
“Father, what happened?” Lakin asked.
“It’s none of your business,” Bern replied coldly, turning away.
He needed to discuss this with the elders.
Should he tell his father about this?
Lakin and Selena stood there dazed—it was none of their business?
In fact, although Lakin and Selena were Fred’s descendants, even they didn’t know Fred’s real identity.
The na Fred was known only to Fred’s team and a few individuals like Bern; none of the descendants born here knew the true situation.
At that mont, Bern’s mind was extrely unsettled—the knowledge of his father’s identity could potentially affect the fate of the entire family and Star Ring.
Their scope now extended beyond the founding team; after taking root in Asgard, multiple families backed the founding team, and along with the Star Ring Company, they had beco a formidable entity.
And Xu Mo’s arrival might cause a great upheaval, determining the fate of multiple families.
As for what his father might think, Bern wasn’t sure.
He even considered whether to inform his father about this.
After all, he differed from his father; he had no affection for the Empire, would he abandon everything in Asgard and choose to take a risk?
Bern—he wouldn’t do such a thing.
“Zeus.”
As Bern thought of this na, an icy expression flashed across his eyes.
Simultaneously, multiple forces including the Hakenan Family, Duffy Family, Thunder God Technology, were investigating Xu Mo.
This auction has turned Xu Mo into a focal character, thrusting him into the lilight.
