Mech: Shattering of the Galaxy-Chapter 446 - 221: Three-color Relic!
Chapter 446 -221: Three-color Relic!
(Today’s two chapters are both 3000 words, a temporary change for one day.)
It had to be said, Mu Fan’s ragged appearance combined with his previous pondering over matters he shouldn’t have, led to a facial expression reminiscent of a big fool, which instantly drew numerous gazes!
After all, this was the VIP lounge of the Construction Commercial Bank on Blue Capital Star, where visitors were either rich or noble.
The uniformed beauty walking ahead, completely indifferent to the stares, even occasionally turned her head to flash a sweet smile, which confounded the onlooking crowd.
This kind of character could pick up girls?
If so, then wild boars might as well be able to fly.
The female receptionist in uniform, leading the way, didn’t care about the stares of the customers; the more the better, for this was a chance for a sparrow to transform into a phoenix.
Even a fleeting romantic fling would be a win for her, especially since this young man in front of her had striking features and a well-proportioned body—she was definitely not at a loss!
With a swaying stride, the female receptionist led Mu Fan to a soft genuine leather sofa, then bowed gently and said, “Please wait a moment, Mr. Hei Fan, I will go call the major accounts manager right away.”
As she bowed, she purposefully exposed a glimpse of her cleavage.
However, it was quite clear that she continued to be ignored by Mu Fan, who still looked like a fool.
He was tensed all over, clearly not used to being stared at collectively by a group of smartly dressed individuals, so he kept his eyes down, acting dumb.
Soon, the uniformed female receptionist returned, followed by a woman who looked quite capable and hurried over.
“Mr. Hei Fan, if you need anything at all, please call on me, you can call me Irene,” she said, stretching out her hand with a smile on her face, once again revealing a hint of allure at her chest.
Mu Fan politely thanked her, then reached out his hand.
When their palms met, Irene’s little finger brushed towards the center of Mu Fan’s palm.
Inconspicuously, a miraculous scene unfolded—Mu Fan’s palm suddenly bowed in a weird arc, and Irene’s little finger just brushed past a centimeter away from its center.
With a surprised look on her face, Irene felt that she was clearly holding the hand in front of her; how could her little finger have missed?
Mu Fan revealed an innocent smile, “Thank you.”
At that moment, the woman behind Irene approached.
“Hello Mr. Hei Fan, I am the major accounts manager, Jiang Zi, and I’m very pleased to serve you.”
Her language was concise, efficient, and neither humble nor arrogant, which made Mu Fan feel quite comfortable.
With people, isn’t it nice to just speak naturally?
Mu Fan now responded with a just and grateful face, then lightly clacked his teeth, signaling to Black to tell him what to do next, as he could not continue this act on his own.
“Safe deposit box number HFS273094 requires deposition of items, please arrange,” Black spoke.
Mu Fan naturally repeated it with a smile.
“Of course, respected Mr. Hei Fan, please wait a moment,” Jiang Zi replied with consummate professionalism, not uttering even a single word of superfluous speech.
For someone additionally bound to a centurion Black Gold Card, he absolutely belonged to the elite sequence. Because for these big shots, uttering the wrong word could spell trouble, so better to say less than more, staying cautious and reserved.
Shortly after, led by Jiang Zi and having passed through triple scanning to ensure he had no dangerous items, Mu Fan was escorted by two security personnel down a long and winding red-carpeted passageway into the depths below, eventually entering a luxurious room of about forty square meters.
Apart from the entrance door, there were no windows inside.
“Sir, in a moment your safety deposit box will appear on the platform over there through a special passage. This VIP room contains no recording or video taking devices; you are under absolute secrecy. Meanwhile, over there, you may select any tools you require. Items inside the room are not allowed to be removed from the VIP space. Your belongings may be placed in this black leather case and taken with you. Distinguished VIP client, it is a pleasure to serve you,” said the security personnel respectfully before leaving the room.
Having seen all sorts of clients and myriad eccentric billionaires, working in this profession meant having keen judgment was paramount.
The triple-layered hydraulic metal door closed, and the room fell into absolute silence.
Mu Fan stood alone in the middle. Before him was a simple-style chair and a large desk.
A couple of meters beyond this unique area were grand yet understated decorations, serving as a resting area for the clients.
“It’s safe, no signals detected,” Black’s voice sounded.
“What should I do now?”
“There are no recording devices here; activate the camera mode on Sky Communication and place it to one side.”
At those words, Mu Fan took out the Sky Communication from his pocket and activated the holographic recording mode.
It was undeniable that the Sky Communication Wang Nuonuo had given him was top-tier, integrating the latest and greatest features released on the market.
The clarity of this holographic recording function was one level above that of the chunkier Sky Communication.
As the scenery swirled into the sensor, Black sighed.
“This is truly a treatment for the nobles. Although I, the Great Demon King, don’t mind it, I still hope you strive towards becoming a noble, so that when you grow into a great noble that no one dares to bother, we won’t have every Tom, Dick, and Harry jumping out anymore,” Black remarked.
Mu Fan nodded in agreement with Black’s words, however, it was of little relevance at the moment.
“Quit the nonsense, how do I proceed?”
“You’re no fun, don’t you have any desire to communicate with your pet anymore?” Who knew when Black had decided to define itself as a pet.
This made a vein on Mu Fan’s forehead start throbbing.
“All right, I’ve seen the layout inside; now, go over to the desk. The safety deposit box’s exit is right beside it, and so is the tool conveyance frame.”
Mu Fan did as instructed and indeed saw a small sunken screen on the desk surface.
A few labels appeared on it.
“Click—retrieve the items.”
Mu Fan pressed down, and about five seconds later, a faint mechanical sound suddenly arose.
The floor next to the table cracked open, then slowly slid to the sides, revealing a massive safe that was more than two people tall in front of Mu Fan. The sheer size and intimidating thickness left no doubt in Mu Fan’s mind about the vault’s solidity.
“Initiating palm-print and iris scan for dual verification.”
Following Black’s instructions, he placed his hand on the scanner and then aligned his eyes with the iris recognition device.
Two beams of green light fired up at the same time. ƒгeewёbnovel.com
Then Mu Fan felt the safe body vibrate, and the clanking of mechanical gears began.
“You pull it open.”
Without much effort, once unlocked, Mu Fan gently tugged open the thick door.
A large cubic iron box appeared in front of him.
“What is this?”
“My master’s home, there are some good things inside, I made it look like a disguise to get it here! Look up.”
So, it contained the Black Egg.
It had been a while since he had seen it, but he could tell that Black was attached to this chamber, never leaving it behind wherever he went.
As for the good things inside, Mu Fan didn’t pay much attention; they were just some technological artifacts beyond his comprehension.
To his mind, Black was the irreplaceable existence.
Looking up, there was an antique wooden box.
“This box?”
“Yes, inside are two stones and some notes.”
As Mu Fan reached for it, he casually asked, “What’s the deal with the addition of a binding user to that centurion’s Black Gold Card?”
“White Hair’s card? Why not use it if it’s free, such a flirty and flamboyant guy, hacking his card is just too easy. Why not use such a perfect cover?”
Mu Fan’s reaching hand froze, “Doesn’t he ever check his own card?”
“For someone as big and seductive as him, he usually just cares about spending money, look, the number of times his card has been checked since activation is zero! So I told you to cling to those coattails with all your might!”
Black boasted proudly.
Inside a sealed equipment room at Dingchuan Academy, White Hair, who was sitting in front of a Light Computer frantically hacking into the girls’ dormitory network, suddenly sneezed.
“Which girl is thinking of me again? But why just one sneeze! It looks like I need to make an appearance at the new student mixer, as soon as I crack this system, I’ll plot I’s routine.”
Right then, the screen flickered with success, and a window popped up on White Hair’s Light Computer—it appeared to be… a living room surveillance of an apartment, and in the video, a girl wrapped in a towel seemed to have just come out of a shower, the formidable curvature of her chest clearly visible under the surveillance.
“Oh snap~~~~~” Two streams of nosebleed burst forth, and White Hair scrambled to his feet to wipe down the Light Computer.
Ignorant of White Hair’s alternate adventures, Mu Fan took down the wooden box, opened it, and looked at the two quiet stones and a worn notebook inside.
One was a mineral full of rock chips, the faint yellow color of mica intertwined with purplish-blue undertones, weaving a naturally patterned tapestry that glinted under the room’s soft light.
The other was gray and dusty, appearing like any ordinary roadside rock.
Mu Fan scrutinized it for a long while, unable to discern anything special.
“Which one is the Star Map relic? Aren’t these just two rocks?”
“Take your Sky Communication and aim it at the patterned stone,” Black’s voice carried a hint of fluctuation.
Mu Fan brought the Sky Communication closer, allowing Black to observe more carefully.
“If I’m not wrong, then the Star Map Relic… should be this one!”
This one?
He extended his hand to pick up the stone, squinting at it in the light, staring unblinkingly.
After a full minute, Black’s indifferent voice, “Do you see anything?”
Mu Fan shook his head, “No.”
“Then why do you look so convincing! Select three sets of tools from the toolbox.”
“A micro laser cutter, a Triple-beam Gem Illuminator, and a brush. Then open that black leather case, and make sure to operate everything inside this black case, not a single fragment should be left outside. I feel that you’re in for a surprise… this is actually a Three-color Relic.”
Black uttered a term utterly foreign to Mu Fan—
Three-color Relic!

PS: The list of rewards is placed in the second chapter, let’s chat about something else here.
Firstly, recommending a magnificent work “Absolute Options” by my good friend Li Luo Qiu Xi, which is going on the shelf the day after tomorrow. Its performance will probably be terrifying, which not only signifies the quality of this book but also Li Luo’s sky-high imagination. Okay, I admit he owes me ten uses of the Great Sword, any willing readers can go and demand them on my behalf, thanks, brothers, ten Great Swords!
When “Absolute Options” appear, if no choice is made, time will stand still.
If a choice is made but the task within cannot be completed, time will rewind, and “Absolute Options” will start over.
[Option 1: Defeat the Great Demon King of the Demon Realm alone.]
[Option 2: Capture the heart of a thousand-year-old virgin with just three sentences.]
…
Another PS: Too tired after going home, I slept until 23:50, then woke up to find it exploded. The almighty author Dang is actually promoting it on Dangdang chapter, my heart is bursting with excitement! This is our idol-level author on Dangdang, because he is— the author of “Immortal Legend,” “Card Disciples,” “Cultivating the Truth,” “Invincible Legend,” “The Five Elements”! He quietly gave a Dangdang chapter promotion, and I’m thrilled beyond words.
No amount of thankful words can express my gratitude; this generous gift has deeply moved Dang. Mu Fan carries Dang’s dreams, and I only hope to weave a world full of dreams and passion for our beloved readers.
Dear friends, in this world, you are my heroes!
