Mech: Shattering of the Galaxy-Chapter 687 - 460: Prime Prey

Mu Fan hadn't shaken off the dazed state he had been in by the time he returned to his apartment.

That shameless big bald head was always so flippant—could the Thunderhawk really be that hard to dispose of?

When Mu Fan got back to the dormitory, all he saw was a surprise-stricken paparazzo.

After incredulously snapping a dozen photos of Mu Fan, he finally pounced over in excitement.

"Boss Mu Fan, you're out already? They said you needed at least three days of treatment!"

Mu Fan grinned and said, "It's fine, where are the others?"

"White Hair boss went to the city. To save you, he accessed his authority, and then his family directly called him over, he left looking unwilling."

"As for Gu Yunyou, he hasn't been in the apartment since you snuck off to that martial arts competition—we've failed to contact him, and he hasn't replied to the messages."

"Is your body okay? When we saw you yesterday, we were scared to death, Harry and Wang Nuonuo were crying."

"I'm fine now. When I get back I'll tidy up, and later I too have to go out, I'll leave them a message. And thank you," said Mu Fan with a smile.

After Mu Fan and Harry chatted, it wasn't until he mentioned he had important business to attend to that he calmed the restless fatty down.

Having experienced a brush with death, Mu Fan walked through the campus with a changed mindset—it felt incredibly precious to breathe the fresh air freely.

The banquet would officially begin at six in the evening, but attendees were starting to arrive from four o'clock onward.

After all, this was an event graced by many celebrities and big shots—if one were lucky, casually closing a business deal could be worth billions.

Nobody thought of arriving early as a nuisance, but rather they felt the banquet duration wasn't long enough.

The venue for the banquet was within the No. 1 Villa beside Star Moon Lake.

"No. 1 Villa" was the official name of this cluster of buildings, not normally open to the public—a true gathering place for high officials and the wealthy elite.

However, today, Mu Fan enjoyed this kind of treatment.

Loki Heavy Industry's headquarters was still in chaos, and with branch personnel just in place, Wang Nuonuo didn't have the time or conditions to tailor another suit for Mu Fan.

Before heading to No. 1 Villa, Mu Fan had to visit a famous tailor shop in Zhongjing City to buy an expensive ready-to-wear suit.

At this moment, the entrance to No. 1 Villa was bustling with activity.

Many seldom-seen luxury vehicles were now congregated by the lakeside.

The invited media struggled to shift their gaze from those impressive cars.

"That's Councilman Ying's ride, a ten-year commemorative business model Silver Spirit."

"That Fabro Wind Son Hovercar—seems like it vanished from the market three years ago. I remembered one fetching a price of 41 million at an auction!"

"This is the Rong Family's motorcade..."

"The Gaoling Family has sent people too, wonder who is leading them?"

"The Tang family is here, that's Donatello! The most distinguished person of this generation in the Tang family."

"Wait, this beautiful woman..."

With her soft, lightly curled chestnut hair and a black mermaid gown showcasing her strikingly tall figure, eyes gentle as water, and a light smile permanently on her lips.

As soon as this woman stepped down from the luxurious floating car, she captured the attention of the entire venue.

Then, a handsome young man around twenty-eight or twenty-nine years old stepped out beside her, dressed in a light coffee-color handmade suit, with a neatly groomed beard and a subtle smile in his eyes.

As the young man appeared, not only the media but even other celebrities started breathing more rapidly.

"The Youshi Family is here as well!"

"That's Youshi Jun and his sister Youshi Wang!"

The photographers, who had received permission to be on site, immediately went crazy, pouring their lights generously over these extraordinary siblings. First seen on MV4LEMP|YR.

The Youshi Family from Blue Capital's seven elite houses, Zhongjing Youshi.

This family had held the number one spot for many years; today, representatives of their younger generation had also appeared.

The aura of the Youshi Family was truly exceptional, and coupled with their massive power and influence, it was hard for anyone to look away.

"Military figures have arrived, that's Major General Wang."

"Let me see, someone from the Staff Department is here."

...

More and more cars of various colors arrived, raising the status of the villa with the presence of guests with astonishing backgrounds.

This was a banquet at the pinnacle of Blue Capital Star!

A black Floating Car stopped in the parking area; despite costing 12 million, its license plate and model seemed modest compared to those around it.

A waiter hurried over to respectfully open the car door.

The guests who could appear here today were not ones they could afford to offend.

A crystal shoe, reflecting the sparkling water of the nearby lake, lightly touched the ground, followed by a tall, beautiful woman in a light yellow gown.

Those clear eyes, with just a brief survey around, caused the breathing of many youths nearby to quicken.

Add to that her tall stature, rivaling Youshi Wang, and a face that was equally beautiful but sweeter, which made some young nobles greeting each other brighten up instantly.

However, the young man who stepped out from the other side sparked a hint of hostility in these youths who had just become interested.

Mu Fan gently adjusted his tie.

Although the suit was painfully expensive, it didn't feel as comfortable as the one that had been ruined.

This wasn't his first banquet, although the time between this one and the previous wasn't long.

But many people might not experience something so extraordinary in ten years.

Rich experiences mature a person, and Mu Fan was exactly that kind of person.

As soon as he stepped out, he felt a swath of slightly hostile glances around him, but when he realized those looks often lingered on Wang Nuonuo, Mu Fan couldn't help but give a wry smile.

Wang Nuonuo today truly embodied the grace of a well-bred young lady, especially after this recent event. Nuonuo had matured a lot, and at this moment, that emerging grace was hard not to notice.

"Please present your invitation,"

a respectful waiter asked, stopping the two and bowing.

"Welcome, distinguished guests from Loki Heavy Industry."

After Nuonuo presented a chic, dark invitation card, the two finally entered "Villa Number One," the most mysterious and luxurious on Blue Capital Star.

After passing through winding corridors adorned with mountains and rivers, they officially arrived in the brilliantly lit hall.

The crowd, already engaged in conversations, came into view.

"It's not even five in the afternoon yet, and there are already this many people?"

A young man dressed in a striking red suit, originally chatting with a companion, brightened up when he saw the girl in the light yellow dress with a sweet face.

"Brother Rong, I've spotted some fine prey; wait for me a moment."
