Mech: Shattering of the Galaxy-Chapter 192 - 102: Beneath the Starry Sky
(Conveying congratulations to the newly promoted helmsman "Spin Pot Pot")
The corporate elites gathered as onlookers had already decided to lodge a collective complaint against Galaxy Transport Federation company—did your company send an ancestor to deliver couriers?
During a luncheon hosted by a renowned interstellar heavy industry corporation, a courier from your esteemed company brazenly intruded on the event, insisting that the person asked to leave sign for the delivery and repeatedly disrupting the order of the banquet.
Hmm, that’s decided then.
Someone had already prepared a mental draft.
It wasn’t until the metallic case hit the ground with a thud that Mu Fan realized this bald uncle wasn’t joking with him.
"Mine?" Mu Fan pointed to the tip of his nose.
"Mhm, sign here first and we’ll go through the procedure."
The big bald head said this and then took out a crumpled piece of paper from his pocket, offering a pen alongside it.
Xiao Rongrong, who had been ignored by everyone, muttered unconsciously, "Galaxy Transport Federation, still using pen for signing?"
What era are we living in, isn’t it all about electronic signing procedures now.
"An apprentice agreement?"
When Mu Fan saw the title on the crumpled document, he realized it was not a delivery form and, stunned for a moment, looked up at Ruan Xiongfei.
"What are you dawdling for, hurry up and sign."
Mu Fan gave a reluctant smile and swiftly signed his name.
"Done. Now, you turtle grandson over there, you wanted to ask if he’s a noble, right? If he’s not a noble, he can’t attend this kind of banquet, huh?" Satisfied, Ruan Xiongfei stuffed the wrinkled paper back into his suit and said to Yuan Xian across the room.
"Hmph, this kid’s appearance doesn’t conform to the banquet’s rules. I am just making a choice on behalf of the majority. If there is no explanation, both he and you can get lost."
"I’m so tired of you posers. Come on, kid, open the box. I still need to take it back to the company."
Ruan Xiongfei taunted Yuan Xian out of boredom, then signaled Mu Fan to open the metal case.
The silver alloy was carved out with the company LOGO of Galaxy Transport Federation, the entire case tightly sealed as if it were a single piece. On the front of the case was a rhythmic pulsing of a palm-sized round blue light.
There was no doubt this was a Galaxy Transport Federation courier! This blue light wasn’t electronic; it came from natural blue crystal stones from a restricted area, with only the extravagantly wealthy Galaxy Transport Federation company employing such a luxurious packaging method.
Some of the high-ranking individuals present already recognized this as an S-class courier transport from Galaxy Transport Federation; the sender was definitely vetted by Galaxy Federation.
"Place your hand on it."
Bald Ruan reminded.
Mu Fan put his hand on the box.
Blue ripples swept across, and with a couple of clicks, the metal case split open on top into four sections, its walls spreading out.
Revealing a black triangular object inside flashing red light, a mechanical voice rang out: "Please aim any single eye at the red zone."
Mo’s Triangle?

Now, some people started to feel secretly apprehensive.
This level of delivery confirmed that every step of the item’s transport must occur under the vigilant supervision of the powerful Federation military.
The military?
Eyes began to dart around the room.
Under the watchful eyes of those around him, Mu Fan slowly lowered his head.
"I have no interest in watching you show off. Someone who doesn’t even have a family crest certainly isn’t the heir to any corporation. The fact that we could wait until now is already a miracle. Old Mr. Wang, what do you think?" Yuan Xian asked, looking towards Wang Ji as if inquiring.
Wang Ji’s face darkened again when he heard this, "This is a banquet hosted by Loki Heavy Industry. Sir, I can give you one minute to explain. If I don’t hear a satisfactory explanation, both you and this young man will please leave the banquet. As for Mr. Wayne, regardless of the outcome, I can only express my regrets."
Wayne, who was nearby, felt his heart go cold when he heard this and forced a bitter smile upon his face.
Regardless of the outcome...
Such is the plight of the smaller families.
As for the chubby one, at the moment he didn’t care which company or power you represented; all he knew was that his brother was being looked down upon and bullied!
It’s just being eliminated from the running, who cares!
Ignoring the gazes and whispers around him, Mu Fan, who had already bent over, directed his right eye at the red light zone.
A wave rippled out.
"Identification successful, recipient: Mu Fan. Please retrieve your item, Galaxy Transport Federation sincerely serves you."
Mo’s Triangle scattered again, and this time the special alloy shell was a full five centimeters thick!
Everyone cast their eyes inside.
There lay a gray-and-blue striped paper letter alongside a round, black metallic sphere.
"Ha, and here I was, wondering what it could be? This time, it’s not up to the two of you whether it rolls or not." Yuan Xian chuckled wryly.
Wang Ji frowned, he decided to call his personal guards to put an end to this farce.
Ruan Xiongfei, who had been lazily lounging, suddenly put his finger to his lips, looked at the people around him, and gently said,
"Shh, quiet."
The sphere suddenly levitated, and then the black metal on its surface began to undulate like digital pixels before suddenly doubling in size, a pale blue holographic screen floating above.
Holographic Image Pearl!
After a few tremors, the image stabilized, and people could make out an ancient room teeming with history, whether it was the endless bookshelves behind or the time-worn antique desk.
What on earth is this?
An old man suddenly appeared on the screen, his hair and beard frosted with age, yet his spirit was vibrant, and he possessed a healthy glow unlike what one would expect of his age, his rosy face radiating luminance. His grey uniform, trimmed with gold, made his distinguished aura even more prominent.
It was just a holographic image, and yet the authority that came with a long-held position of power permeated the room, seemingly even more imposing than Wang Ji.
Who is this old man, and why does he look so familiar?
Someone in the crowd furrowed their brows, feeling as if they had seen this old man somewhere before.
Yuan Xian was already getting impatient at his side.
A senior deacon from the Mountain Mist Association was receiving more cold shoulders here than he had in the past five years.
With a gesture, a few from the Mountain Mist Association had already moved closer to Mu Fan.
Over there, Ruan Xiongfei grinned, utterly unconcerned by their minor movements.
The old man in the image coughed, finally directing his gaze forward.
Only then did people truly feel that this authoritative old man was watching every one of them from an unknown place.
Such a powerful presence!
"Student Mu Fan, hello."
The old man gently spoke, his voice clear and unmistakably reaching the ears of every viewer.
Student?
Mu Fan?
This kid’s a student?
But the next second stunned everyone present, including Yuan Xian, Xiao Rongrong, and even the young and old Wang Ji.
"I am the principal of Dingchuan Academy, Don Andrese."
The portly figure who had been full of indignation suddenly stopped breathing, then stared wide-mouthed at the old man.
What had he just heard?
The smile on Yuan Xian’s face, still cold and mocking, didn’t even have time to fade before it froze on his face.
No matter how brash he was, even he recognized the name Dingchuan. What did this old man just claim to be!?
Supported by Wang Nuonuo, Wang Ji lifted his head sharply upon hearing this statement.
The group of onlookers ready for a spectacle became rigid, then stared incredulously at the holographic image.
"As the head of the academy, I am gratified to see such an outstanding student among the candidates, which is an honor for Dingchuan and… an honor for me!"
When the vision of mortals pierces the sky, their insignificance suddenly becomes apparent under the starry expanse.
Don Andrese, a true legendary master known as the ’Federation Fossil’ for his involvement in the amendment of the constitution, had a smile on his face as he solemnly spoke this sentence that made everyone’s scalp tingle.
