Chapter 948 - 948 Zi Yi’s Space Shuttle Machine
He and Second Master Lu continued to follow the transporting robots.
After walking for some time, they arrived at a large laboratory.
After the robots moved all the equipment inside, the room of the laboratory was automatically locked.
Second Master Lu and Mr. Qin stood on the other side of the glass window and looked in.
What happened next only left them with shock.
Zi Yi really managed to control the robots from a long distance away to create the machine.
“Number one and two robots prepare XX materials. Number three and four robots prepare YY material…”
The entire process of smelting, manufacturing, and assembling the machine… had only taken them three hours.
Within these three hours, Mr. Qin and Second Master Lu were practically holding back their breaths.
Just then, Zi Yi announced. “Alright, let’s test the effects now.”
As soon as she finished saying that, they saw a robot lifting a piece of equipment and feeding it into the mouth of the large machine.
In the next second, there was a flash of light and the equipment disappeared from their sight.
Nearly a minute later or so, Zi Yi’s voice sounded. “We’ve received it on our end.”
The composed Mr. Qin and Second Master Lu felt their hearts thumping uncontrollably when they heard her words. This excitement that was beyond what they could tolerate caused them to reach out and hold each other’s hands.
“That’s great!”
Subsequently, the entire load of equipment was sent over one by one.
Mr. Qin gave Zi Yi a call. He suppressed his internal excitement and asked, “Little Zi, what else do you need?”
Zi Yi did not hold back on him. “I require some experimental bodies and auxiliary drugs.”
“Ok.”
On the day itself, all laboratories and large hospitals in the capital received an S-class secret notice. As long as they are in possession of the drugs Zi Yi requires, all of them have to be sent to the Ministry of National Security.
Following that, the items were secretly sent over to Zi Yi’s courtyard.
It could be said that it was the power and contribution of the whole country.
The moment the items arrived, Zi Yi started on her experiments.
As soon as she started, she did not leave the laboratory again.
Lu Jingye came out of the laboratory at around five o’clock in the morning.
Dou Zerui and Dou Xiangling did not sleep for the entire night. At the sight of Lu Jingye coming out, they hastily walked up to him.
“Little Lu, how is the experiment going?”
“It’s still undergoing.”
“Little Lu, I’ve made some food for Yiyi. Why don’t you send it to her? We didn’t have the chance to deliver the food I made last night.”
When Zi Yi started to command the robots to create the space shuttle machine, she sealed the laboratory. Other than her and Lu Jingye, no one was allowed to go in.
“No need. Yiyi doesn’t have the time right now.”
Zi Yi had prepared some nutrients that could allow the body to function normally and so, she was currently living on them.
Lu Jingye also drank some and it was true that he did not feel hungry or sleepy even until now.
Just as Lu Jingye was about to walk upstairs, his phone suddenly rang.
After he answered the call, he headed outside.
Dou Zerui hastily followed along. “Little Lu, did something happen?”
“There is an accident on Prince Justin’s side. I will be going out. You guys should stay here and don’t go anywhere.”
Dou Zerui stopped walking and said, “Ok.”
Lu Jingye walked to the courtyard and got into a car and drove away.
When he arrived at the end of the barrier Zi Yi had set up, Lu Jingye brought along Little Loli and one of his invisible robots before he continued to drive outside.
“Brother-in-law, what are we going to do?”
“Rescue Justin.”
…
Justin never imagined that Edward would aim for his wife and child since he was unable to enter Lu Jingye’s winery.
Looking at his wife and child that was being held hostage on the other side, Justin’s eyes were bloodshot.
“Edward, you better not harm my wife or child. Otherwise, I won’t ever forgive you!”
Edward snorted and said coldly, “You are now a sinner in the country. If you continue with your obstinacy, then all Country M’s citizens will be in dire straits. If you don’t make a choice today, then I can only teach you a lesson on behalf of all the citizens.”
As soon as Edward said that, the guards holding onto Justin’s wife and child placed a gun to their heads.
“Justin!”
“Daddy…”
Justin’s wife and child were frightened and they started crying out loudly.
Justin clenched his fists and tried to control the flames of fury that were about to explode. He gnashed his teeth and said to Edward, “They are your sister-in-law and nephew. Do you really have to do this?”
“If not for you acting on your selfish desires, would I do this? Do you know how serious the international situation is right now? The European countries have already sent us an ultimatum. If we don’t hand them over today by noon, they will march in directly with their army. When the time comes, the whole of Country M will be goners!”
Having said that, Edward suddenly exploded and said, “Justin, are you out of your mind? Or do you think you can do whatever you want just because Father has a soft spot for you? I’m telling you, for the sake of the overall situation, you must stand by my side today. Otherwise, don’t blame me for taking it out on your family.”
Justin was feeling extremely anxious as he listened to the frightened cries of his wife and child.
At the same time, he started to doubt his choice.
Was it right or wrong for him to support Lu Jingye at this point in time?
Just then, a car quickly drove over from one side.
When Edward saw the individual seated in the car, he hastily shouted, “Quick, Lu Jingye is here. Have him surrounded. We must arrest him today!”
The car drove directly to their side and stopped.
The group of guards immediately surrounded Lu Jingye’s car with weapons in their hands.
Lu Jingye opened the door and alighted with two other robots. His gaze landed on the faces of the woman and child for two seconds before he looked at Edward.
Edward finally revealed a triumphant laugh. “Hahaha… Lu Jingye, you’ve finally fallen into the trap!”
Lu Jingye looked away from him and turned to Justin.
There were traces of surprise in Justin’s eyes. “Mr. Lu, why are you here?”
Lu Jingye said with a calm expression, “Since you’ve chosen to stand on my side, I can’t possibly watch on the sidelines and see my allies get hurt.”
Traces of emotions flashed past Justin’s eyes.
“Hmph!” Edward sneered at this. “You yourself are in dire straits and yet, you’re thinking of someone else’s safety? As expected of Lu Jingye, you’re the best at gaining people’s trust. Since you’re so loyal, follow me and leave.”
Having said that, he took a step backwards. At the same time, Edward’s bodyguards aimed their weapons at Lu Jingye.
“Mr. Lu, be careful.”
The guards on Justin’s side also raised their weapons and aimed at the guards on the other side.
Lu Jingye gave him a look of assurance and called out, “Little Loli.”
Little Loli’s bell-like voice sounded. “Brother-in-law, just leave it to me!”
With that, she quickly transformed into a three-meter-tall King Kong with a giant pike, which was around one meter long, in her hands.
