Bug Money: ??? What's going on here?
All attacks vanished before the black mist. Insect Money and Crocodile Emperor were dumbfounded. The scene they had imagined, which turned the entire battle arena into a blood-red hell, did not materialize. Instead, they saw only an abyss that seemed to stretch to the bottom.
Chongqian: "I don't believe it! I don't believe it! What's going on! Why does Cheng Dahua know this?!"
Cheng Dahua cried out, "Awooo!"
You'll always be a loser!
Insect Money: "Crocodile Emperor God! Continue!"
"call!"
Five or six fire dragons reformed, twisting and roaring as they surged forward with the power to dispel the black mist. Cheng Dahua didn't even glance at them; the fire dragons silently vanished into the black mist, their fiery tails struggling twice in their death throes before dissipating...
"Why! Why did this happen! It's just a flower!" the insect cried out in despair.
The dark fog grew larger and larger, gradually breaking through the confinement of the battle platform and reaching the outermost cocoon.
The insect, staring at the black mist that ignored everything, collapsed in despair, clutching its head: "My cocoon! Ahhh! My cocoon!"
"Click..."
"Click-clack..."
Those working diligently outside noticed that the cocoon seemed to be loosening slightly. Just as they were hesitating whether to continue or wait, Zhang Mingyu suddenly ordered everyone to retreat.
"Bang—"
The cocoon suddenly burst open, scattering in all directions, but then, as if pulled by something, it gathered back towards the center halfway through the explosion.
Among the fragments of cocoons of various sizes, the battle arena could be seen. However, before the black mass could be clearly seen, a flash appeared before their eyes, and Insect Coin, carrying Crocodile Emperor God, rushed out, howling, "I don't believe it! I don't believe it! How come I can't even win a match!"
Zhang Mingyu immediately threw the lizard gourd out. The lizard gourd discharged electricity in mid-air. Before the insect money could recover from the blow of failure, it was suddenly enveloped by the crackling sparks and lightning falling from the sky.
"Karakara".
All the laser cannons in the arena were aimed at Bug Money. Looking at the dark cannon barrels all around, Bug Money cried out, "You...you...I just came here to compete, I haven't done anything yet...why are you treating me like this?!"
Zhang Mingyu took out the arrest warrant: "Sorry, Chong Qian, you're under arrest."
...
The awakening of the Insect King barely made a ripple in the reports. Instead, the entire coverage was given to Cheng Dahua, who provided detailed explanations of all her highlights since the start of the competition. All the skills she had displayed were magnified and amplified again and again.
At the same time, another bombshell news broke: Cheng Anlang and Zhang Mingyu had gone public with their relationship. For a moment, people didn't know which one to talk about.
Cheng Dahua stood on the high podium, Cheng Anlang beside her. Zhang Mingyu, as the specially invited (he insisted on coming) presenter, stepped forward with a lizard perched on his shoulder, and picked up the prizes from the tray. Previously, the prize for the junior group champion was a one-year crystal contract and a collector's edition gold medal. However, considering Cheng Anlang and Cheng Dahua's circumstances, and their contributions to defeating the insect money, the Star Alliance added some money to the prize. Thus, the tray displayed a large gold chain and a crown, both designed by top designers.
At first glance, the gold necklace seemed quite thick, but upon closer inspection, one could see that it was actually somewhat openwork, with intricately carved patterns intertwined to form a dense, robust chain, with a large blue diamond dangling from the bottom. Zhang Mingyu personally hung the gold necklace around Cheng Anlang's neck, then smoothed out his hair that had been pressed down. Cheng Anlang seemed a little disgusted by the large gold chain; he touched the diamond hanging from it, which was quite large.
On the tray was a crown made of pure gold, with a large red diamond set in the center of the top and several small yellow diamonds around it. Zhang Mingyu picked up the crown and put it on Cheng Dahua's head.
At the same time, Star Alliance and the school opened a priority channel for Cheng Anlang to obtain S-level mechs, allowing him to buy them almost whenever he needed them. They also promised to provide Cheng Dahua with nutrient solution and substrate for life, all of which were products of Star Alliance Advanced Research Institute.
"I'm obsessed with flowers! I'm crazy about flowers! I'd bang my head against a wall for flowers!!!"
"Ahhh, I love you all!"
Cheers and screams swept in from all directions, the scene so grand it felt like a coronation ceremony, not a junior group championship. Cameras clicked away, Cheng Dahua grinned in the flashing lights, and Cheng Anlang couldn't help but smile as well.
"Ouch."
look!
Cheng Dahua stretched out a leaf and pointed to the screaming and cheering crowd below the podium.
This is the empire I built for you!
Cheng Anlang glanced at Zhang Mingyu, then smiled and patted Cheng Dahua's head.
After receiving the award, reporters swarmed onto the stage and stopped them: "Now that Cheng Dahua is so dazzling, are you worried that someone might try to seduce it?"
"No, no, it only likes me."
"Would you go to the battlefield with Cheng Dahua?"
"As long as Starlink needs me."
How did you meet and get to know Zhang Mingyu?
"Because of Cheng Dahua's saliva."
"Could you tell me how you met Cheng Dahua?"
"It all started with a piece of meat..."
For a long time, humans who went to contract with mutated beasts in Emshiba would bring meat with them. Unfortunately, no one ever encountered a plant that jumped out of the grass, drooling and howling, again...
Chapter 59 59, extra
After receiving the award, Cheng Dahua was overjoyed. She held her crown all day long and couldn't get enough of looking at it. If it weren't for the fact that the crown would fall off when she lowered her head, she would want to wear it every day.
After Cheng Anlang and Zhang Mingyu went public with their relationship, Cheng Anlang stopped returning to the dormitory at night, only returning at noon. In the evenings, he would take Cheng Dahua on Zhang Mingyu's flying vehicle to Zhang's house.
Cheng Anlang was initially very uncomfortable. Before, he and Zhang Mingyu had been passionately intimate, only occasionally letting out a soft moan when they couldn't take it anymore. But after coming to the Zhang family home, he refused to make a sound in the bedroom, biting the sheets when he couldn't bear it. No amount of coaxing from Zhang Mingyu worked. Finally, Zhang Mingyu brought out the original construction specifications of the Zhang family home, repeatedly assuring him that the room was absolutely soundproof, and only then did Cheng Anlang slowly change his habit. There was also the scar on Cheng Anlang's back; because he hadn't had a fake, he hadn't had time to deal with it. In terms of positions, Cheng Anlang was quite indulgent towards Zhang Mingyu. Zhang Mingyu could do whatever he wanted, except for the rear-entry position. Whenever Zhang Mingyu tried to roll him over, Cheng Anlang would curl up in the blanket like a silkworm and roll away, no matter how much Zhang Mingyu assured him he didn't mind.
Cheng Dahua was very easygoing. As long as Cheng Anlang was around and there was good food and drink, she didn't care where she went. The Zhang family's backyard was very large, and Cheng Dahua would run wild there whenever she had time, slapping the sunflowers so hard that the sunflower seeds would fall off their faces. Then she would pick them up and ask Cheng Anlang to peel them for her. If Cheng Anlang was busy, she would ask the housekeeper to peel them. Occasionally, she would drag Xigua along to visit other houses, go to Yaya's house to bully the little rooster, or go to Luosifen's house to get some mud for free.
