?Chapter 735: Chapter 664: The Loser Chapter 735: Chapter 664: The Loser After the Gundy Family, the Huang Family, and the Assassin’s League all suffered a setback in the New Development Zone of Starshine City, the remaining dissenting voices also turned insignificant.
Especially since the last time when a large number of Catastrophe Level Warriors from the Suns suddenly appeared, causing those terrifying residual effects of the battle to surge.
On the contrary, it added to the prestige of the Suns in the New Development Zone.
Nowadays, with openly acknowledged Catastrophe Level Warriors guarding the New Development Zone, to ordinary Pioneers it seemed as stable as Mount Tai.
As time went on, the profits that could be derived from this place had also been increasing.
Although the Suns were still continuously pouring resources into this area, anyone with a keen eye could see the potential of the New Development Zone, which was bound to bring an steady stream of income for the Suns in the future.
In addition, with the completion of the construction of the Teleportation Device, more and more businesses from various industries started to come over and vie for a share of the market.
...
Intelligence, materials, profiteers – everything one could need.
There were even chefs with culinary talent and skill who had come to the New Development Zone to open restaurants.
The location chosen for the opening was near the military base, which showed that this chef had quite a lot of energy and clouta?€|
“Goodness, alien meat has been processed successfully?
That’s indeed impressivea?€|”
When Tao Yu returned to the New Development Zone, he would be fed various creations by Shirou Emiya and Huang Rong, and he was quite picky.
Moreover, as Shirou Emiya and Huang Rong began studying alien ingredients, their cooking skills even improved, and in Tao Yu’s eyes, they were not inferior to those chefs with special talents and skills.
Just now, having encountered a new store and after looking for a ‘Priest’ in the neighborhood, Tao Yu, who was about to leave the New Development Zone, certainly wouldn’t miss the chance to drop by for a taste.
Seeing the specialty dish ‘Alien Crisp’, Tao Yu was quite impressed.
Alien meat, which was slightly toxic, had indeed been hyped by some unscrupulous merchants, and there were rumors about its supposed ‘vitality-enhancing’ properties.
But the taste was truly terrible.
Yet the chef of the ‘Chef Liu’s’ restaurant had managed to process such a perverse ingredient, showcasing considerable skill.
Tao Yu even saw several samples in front of him that looked a bit like butterfly shrimp, as if covered with breadcrumbs, golden and crispy, with a faint aroma of baking.
After all, alien meat was such a nuisance to dispose of here, almost considered garbage.
Alien farms had been in operation for a while, and countless aliens were slaughtered daily, so there was a substantial number of ‘Alien Crisp’ samples available for trial tasting.
Tao Yu went straight over and grabbed one to eat.
“How is he not queuing up!”
“Shh~, are you crazy?
That’s the Eight-Armed Vajra!”
“Ha, you were fooled by his title.”
“He never pays when he eats watermelons in the Development Zone.”
An even more informed group was sure of Tao Yu’s ‘World Breaker’ strength, making him an important figure not only in the New Development Zone but also undoubtedly at the pinnacle in the Inner City, even eligible to enter the Floating City.
Further considering Tao Yu’s relationship with the Suns, there were whispers of the potential for him to marry into the family.
Indeed, he was greeted with smiles all around, with everyone currying favor.
But Tao Yu preferred peace and quiet, was averse to disturbances, and was known for his quick temper and protectiveness.
Thus, people limited their greetings without daring to overstep boundaries.
Otherwise, it would be a beating for nothing.
As Tao Yu smiled and nodded in acknowledgment to everyone, he prepared to find a seat.
Suddenly, he felt an extremely rare malice.
After completely Deifying his ‘Aura of Fear,’ Tao Yu’s already Keen Perception had become far stronger in capturing emotions.
He caught a glimpse of a strange young man sitting by the window in his peripheral vision.
Before, the man seemed to have been drinking while looking out the window, but now he was turned and looking at Tao Yu.
The man had handsome features and, despite being male, his slightly raised eyes held a bewitching charm, with striking vertical pupils.
With just a glance, Tao Yu recognized his identity.
Although he looked young, he wasn’t a youth that grew up in the New Development Zone but had awakened about two years before Tao Yu, and was two years older.
Hu Hao, the third son and legitimate heir of the eighth Gundy family in Starshine Floating Citya?€”an exceptional talent who became a World Breaker within half a year of his awakening.
Rumor had it he was even entering the rotation list for the position of Inspector.
In theory, he should have been restricted by the Teleportation Device but likely had special authorization, similar to the Suns’ Catastrophe Level ones.
The reason Tao Yu knew so much about Hu Hao was that he was one of the wealthy suitors Sun Shiqing had secretly listed for him.
Although not the strongest or the most outstanding, he still had some special confidence.
The Huang Family, despite being only the eighth-ranked, had always been rather neutral, staying out of many conflicts.
The Suns never contemplated a marriage alliance due to the special nature of the two sisters, though outsiders weren’t aware of this.
At least in the eyes of others, securing a marriage with the Huang Family would definitely be a good choice.
Despite the Huang Family being ranked awkwardly at eighth, such a position made them more susceptible to alliances through marriage.
With this in mind, Tao Yu wasn’t surprised by the sudden animosity from the other party.
However, Tao Yu remained calm as he nodded to the unsuccessful suitor.
Jealousy is for those unworthy of envy.
He had been openly pursuing ‘Priests’ and flaunting various stances with the little rich women, while others could only fantasize in solitude.
He had no reason to wear a frown.
In all respects, he was the one with the advantage...
