The Seventh Base-Chapter 618 - 49: Battle of the Super God Machines_2
"Thank you, sir," Ross said, somewhat flattered. The man before him was a Duke, controlling a behemoth like an interstellar bank.
Carter’s father also came over, warmly shaking hands. For a young man with boundless potential, showing some care was just a natural thing to do, and it might lead to unexpected gains.
"Are you discussing a partnership?" Suddenly, a figure approached, carrying the air of a soldier, exuding a powerful oppressive aura.
Douglas’s father, a big shot at the Ministry of Defense.
"Are you the head of the Blue Star Energy Technology Group?" Douglas’s father asked.
Ross could feel a strong oppressive force and nodded, "Yes, sir."
"I’ve heard good things about the products your company has developed. The military also wants to purchase some of the most advanced weapons. Does your Blue Star Energy Group have any issues?" the man continued.
"Of course not," Ross nodded.
"What are you discussing?" Many people had noticed the situation here. It seemed that a young man had caught the attention of several big shots, making others curious about his identity.
"Who’s this young sir?" someone asked curiously.
"Mr. Ross," at that moment, Elizabeth also came over and shook hands with Ross, then introduced him to the people around her: "This is my friend, a student at Lucas University, and the CEO of Blue Star Energy Technology Group, Ross."
Hearing Elizabeth’s words, many people realized who he was. They had heard that Princess Elizabeth was starting a business with someone, and it seemed this was the person.
Moreover, it was rumored that both the interstellar bank and the Aerospace Union had stakes in it, making everyone curious about this company’s background.
The Blue Star Energy Technology Group, they all took note of it.
"I’ve heard of the Blue Star Energy Technology Group. Rumor has it that the Royal Family of Odin Mountain Star is involved in the collaboration, obtaining energy from Odin Mountain Star and then transporting it through the Aerospace Union to Lucas Star to find buyers. It’s a good business, harvesting decent profits. It seems our Princess Elizabeth has come of age and won’t need to ask for pocket money at home anymore," said a nobleman, who broke into hearty laughter as many others chimed in.
Although it was ostensibly praise, there was a hint of disparagement, mocking Elizabeth’s immaturity. Moreover, Elizabeth had not publicly acknowledged her stake in the venture, only introducing Ross as her friend. Though everyone was aware, speaking it aloud was another matter.
Dealing in energy was not technically sophisticated. If ordinary people did it, it was a smart strategy to earn money, but for a princess of the Royal Family to engage in such businesses and inviting people to a golden banquet seemed a bit petty.
Such a trading company was not something to showcase publicly; it was better to make money quietly in the background.
Elizabeth glanced at the speaker, who was close to her brother, Prince Charles, clearly mocking her.
"This sir," Ross turned to the nobleman, bowing slightly, "our Blue Star Energy Technology Group started from scratch. The energy business is just about integrating resources, earning our first bucket of gold. After earning that first bucket, we have been committed to scientific research, inviting a research team to share in our stock, and completing a new round of resource integration. After over half a year of development, we have successfully transformed and have upgraded the existing weapons systems. Within three days of the new weapons launch, Blue Star Energy Technology Group secured hundreds of billions in orders and continues to grow. The profits are indeed substantial."
The nobleman was startled, clearly unaware of the latter developments. Orders worth hundreds of billions in three days?
Murmurs spread around, this was no small business anymore.
Three days’ orders worth hundreds of billions, which could potentially reach the level of trillions in the future.
"Today, there’s a great battle at the Mechanical God Arena, and a representative from Blue Star Energy Technology Group will also participate. If you are interested, you might want to watch," Elizabeth said.
"Is that the competition Sterling is participating in?" At that moment, Sterling’s father came over and asked.
"Yes," Elizabeth nodded, causing the nobleman to show a hint of surprise. No wonder Elizabeth knew about it; it seems Sterling and Blue Star Energy Technology Group were participating in the same competition.
"Did Sterling, the youngest warrior of our Royal Knights, also participate?" someone laughed, "If that’s the case, I will definitely have to watch."
Ross glanced at Elizabeth, it seemed that Miss Elizabeth was creating momentum for the Blue Star Energy Technology Group.
Moments later, the giant screen beside them displayed live footage from the Mechanical God Arena.
By then, the Arena was packed with people.
Tomorrow would be the Lune Festival, and today, virtually the entire capital of Lucas Star was on holiday, celebrating the upcoming Lune Festival in various ways.
Today, the Mechanical God Arena would host a duel between the Mechanical Kings, hailed as the battle of the mech gods.
Those who took part in today’s duel were the top participants from the previous qualifying rounds, truly gathering the best players of the Mechanical God Arena, all of whom had emerged victorious from among the strongest.
Some of the top figures who rarely participated in battles would also appear in today’s battle of the mech gods.
The stands were packed, Ye Qingdie, Mia, and many others from the Blue Star Energy Technology Group were present to watch the battle.
Xu Mo was in the Arena at that moment, already preparing for combat.
By then, the mechanical voice was continuously announcing, introducing one participant after another from various sectors of the Lucas Star Capital.
In one direction, a group of figures gathered together, one of them inside a cool Mecha, surrounded by a star-studded crowd.
"Salin, it’s your performance we’re watching this fight," a figure spoke, the Mecha nodded slightly and then walked forward with firm steps, and with a roar... a powerful Energy Light thrusted out as Salin drove the Mecha into the Arena at high speed, descending from above.
"The Genius Mecha Master of Camp Star is, Salin." the mechanical voice announced, and cheers erupted like thunder.
The Mecha Masters of Camp Star were very famous, known as natural Mecha Masters, with very high Mecha skills and strong Mechas themselves.
Now appearing was the Genius Mecha Master from Camp Star.
"Camp Star," Ye Huan and others in the stands fixed their eyes on the entering Mecha Master, Camp Star, the leading force behind the invasion of Byron Star, they had undermined Lancelot Star. novelbuddy.cσ๓
Now, they also appeared in the Arena.
"Louis, a genius from the third year of the Extraordinary Department at Lucas University, reportedly maintaining first place in his grade in the Extraordinary Department for three consecutive years. His Source Power Level reached A+ as a junior, a star of the future," the mechanical voice sounded again, and as the words fell, scream echoed from many directions in the stands. A lot of people from Lucas University were there today, not together, but all of them knew the name Louis, a prominent figure from Lucas University, a true top genius.
"Next, we will introduce a special contestant, a warrior from the Royal Knights, Knight Sterling," the mechanical voice continued, and a figure fully armed in Armor and wielding a golden Long Spear entered the battlefield. His Golden Armor was incredibly dazzling, instantly attracting countless gazes.
The spectators’ area erupted in cheers.
Each name was that of a top genius, the Genius Mecha Master from Camp Star, a genius contestant from top corporations, the genius from Lucas University, and the young warrior from the Royal Knights.
Such a lineup filled everyone with endless imagination.
At that moment, at the golden banquet, Elizabeth and others watched the screen. Were Sterling and Louis also competing?
She certainly knew of Louis, that aloof genius.
Mr. Hunter from the Blue Star Energy Technology Group, could he handle it?
