Chapter 84
Jin WoWo originally planned to give Derrick a discount. But after thinking about it, Derrick would have no shortage of cash once the mother and son pair of Eugene have been removed from the picture.
So, the words that came out of his lips was “pay in installments”.
“Cough!”
Raymond hadn’t spoken, listening quietly from the side like a conscientious bodyguard, when he suddenly choked.
Derrick snapped out of his dazed, extremely touched, he bowed deeply to Jin WoWo, “Please help me repair the energy core!”
“Well then, you can come in and purchase it.”
Jin WoWo walked into the store, put a new product on the shelves “Energy Core Repair” on the shelf, and set the price.
Derrick followed in a trance-like state. When he opened the interface, he discovered that the price of the “Energy Core Repair” was 100 million…and could be paid in four installments?
Jin WoWo savvily said, “There is no pressure to install four installments, right? It can also be changed to six installments, but the interest rate is a bit higher.”
Derrick suddenly understood. He wondered why the master divided the 100 million into four installments. Turns out, he was afraid that he would be under pressure to pay.
Although he is not short of money, this was the kindness of the master, how could he not live up to it?
Seeing that Derrick had taken the “Energy Core Repair”, Jin WoWo explained: “It’s still at that time and place. Before I arrive, let all the idle people who would accompany you leave.”
Jin WoWo didn’t want too many people to know for the time being that he is the owner of “Yiyuanfang”.
Derrick responded respectfully. When he raised his head again, the master and his bodyguard had disappeared.
Derrick repeatedly confirmed that he had indeed purchased a product called “Energy Core Repair”. He was slightly relieved until he suddenly remembered that the treatment time ordered by the master was scheduled for midnight this evening.
Less than three hours away from the present time!
The life assistant who was guarding outside the virtual cabin saw Derrick suddenly open his eyes. The assistant leaned over and asked the other party what he needed.
“I’m going out now. Tell the butler to prepare the aircraft immediately!”
Blair, who came to Beiyuan every day, had just stepped into the study door when he heard Derrick’s command with an unprecedented urgency in his tone.
Seeing Derrick still laying in the virtual cabin, Blair’s eyes filled with excitement. He stepped forward and asked carefully, “Have you met the master this time?”
“En (Yes). Tonight, at midnight, room A-01 of the XX clubhouse.”
Blair had no doubts about the unusual time chosen by the master. It was normal for such a “God-level master” to have a quirk. But, Blair was very concerned about another issue.
“Did you ask about that?”
Derrick let out a sigh, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly, revealing a rare smile, “You’ll know when I come back.”
Derrick was very secretive about his trip, with only two Rank 7 guards.
When they arrived at the high-level clubhouse, the guards pushed Derrick’s wheelchair into room A-01. Derrick then asked the guards to put his body in a more upright position to show respect for the master before letting them leave and instructing them that no one is allowed to come up without their instructions.
Derrick remained calm.
He looked at the clock on the wall, quietly waiting for the arrival of the master.
When the second hand pointed to zero, A-01’s door was pushed open.
A very ordinary-looking but tall male beastman came in. Although his appearance was different from what he had seen on the virtual mall, Derrick recognized this person as the master’s bodyguard at a glance.
Immediately afterwards, a small old man with a hood and a robe walked in.
The old man had a long gray beard, and his black hood covered most of his face. He could only see the master’s mouth and the beard around the mouth.
Derrick half leaned in the wheelchair, placed his hands on the armrest of the wheelchair properly, and asked respectfully: “Master, are you here?”
Jin WoWo nodded.
Derrick said, “A small gift.”
Jin WoWo saw that Derrick had a gift box on his lap.
Derrick smiled slightly, “Forgive me for I can’t personally give the gift to the master. I hope the master can forgive me.”
Jin WoWo thought Derrick was quite polite and was more pleasing to his eyes than Eugene.
Raymond stepped forward, picked up the gift box, and nodded to Derrick.
Jin WoWo spoke: “Have you eaten yet?”
Derrick was startled, not because the master asked such words, but because the master’s voice was too young.
He had guessed before that the master might not be as old as the virtual character, but he never expected the master to be so young.
The voice sounded as if it came from a very clear and mellow young man, as if he had just grown up. Combined with the master’s appearance with white hair and beard at the moment, it felt a little weird.
But Derrick knew that the appearance of the master was definitely not the master’s real face.
“I’ve eaten,” he replied gently.
“Do you want to go to the toilet?” Jin WoWo asked again.
Derrick: “…”
When the master asked this, he was embarrassed to answer.
“It takes a long time to repair the energy core. I’m afraid you won’t be able to hold it back.” Jin WoWo bluntly explained.
It turned out to be so, Derrick smiled gently, “Master, please rest assured, I will not lose the chain halfway.”
Jin WoWo walked slowly in front of him, “I want to check your body first.”
Derrick lowered his eyes halfway, not daring to spy on the master’s face rashly, only wondering how the master did not bring any equipment and how to check him.
Suddenly there was a delicate touch on his forehead, and it was the master who touched his forehead with his finger.
A long white arm hidden by the black sleeves entered Derrick’s vision. His gaze stayed on that for a few seconds and he thought secretly in his heart.
The condition of the skin looked just like the skin of a small subbeast that had just hatched from an eggshell. It could be inferred that the age of the master was indeed not very old.
After a while, Jin WoWo retracted his hand, took a look at Raymond, and said to Derrick, “You have No. 1 energy in your body, which does not belong to you. The No. 1 energy and the No. 2 energy collided, making you have an energy explosion and leading to your current condition.”
Derrick was a tiger, and his element was wood. When he probed Derrick’s veins with spiritual power, he found that it was mixed with some gold elements. Jin WoWo thought it was no wonder Derrick had an energy explosion.
Thinking of Derrick’s stepmother coming from the Nolan family, it should have been expected.
Jin WoWo was now quite certain. Someone in the Nolan family must know the principle of the five elements’ mutual reinforcement and mutual restraint. Otherwise, how could it be possible to know so accurately which two kinds of energies have to be mixed together to reach the level of an energy explosion?
Derrick listened to Jin WoWo’s words. He was not as shocked as other people who have heard similar explanations for the first time. Rather, Derrick looked calm and answered, “I know.”
Jin WoWo gave him a surprised look and said, “I will separate the number one energy in your veins first. It will hurt a bit. You hold on.”
Derrick nodded.
Jin WoWo once again touched Derrick’s forehead with his index finger.
Derrick didn’t feel anything, he just lowered his eyes and stared at the master’s white forearm from the corner of his eye.
Derrick began to wonder if the master was a subbeast. Because among the beastmen, there wouldn’t be such white and delicate skin.
As time passed, Derrick’s eyelashes trembled lightly and his eyes moved up quietly.
Because he was sitting, he could see the master’s face from the bottom up hidden by the wide hood.
No, not his face. It was a disguised face after using makeup.
Maybe the master doesn’t want others to know his true age because the other party’s makeup was too rough. He even had a fake beard until his cheeks.
From the shadow of the hood, Derrick could clearly see the master’s long eyelashes, framing his eyes like crow feathers, as well as a beautiful and tall nose.
Derrick’s heart jumped, the master might really be a subbeast.
With many thoughts running through his mind, Derrick wasn’t sure what hind of thoughts he had. Yet, his eyes moved up uncontrollably. From the crack of the broken hair hanging from the front of the master’s forehead, he could vaguely identify the smoothness between the other’s eyebrows.
“Ehem.” A fake cough suddenly sounded in the room.
Derrick quickly retracted his gaze and looked at the master’s bodyguard behind the master with his peripherals.
Derrick could see the bodyguard looking at him coldly.
Derrick smiled gently at the other party.
Raymond gave Derrick a warning look.
Raymond’s beastly instincts were triggered, telling him someone’s invading his territory. He even instinctively wanted to release pressure to frighten his opponent.
It was a pity that Derrick was still disabled and couldn’t feel the pressure of beastmen and rank differences in general.
Because of the tight schedule, Jin WoWo did not have much time to change his appearance so he was very uneasy, especially about Raymong. Raymond was famous in the beastman Empire. There was almost no one in the empire who did not know of him so he definitely had to be disguised.
Derrick chuckled in his heart. The big bodyguard of the master was too sensitive. He just glanced at the master. Did he need to be so nervous?
From this, Derrick was even more certain that the master was indeed a subbeast, or a subbeast without a partner.
Jin WoWo retracted his hand, slowly opened his eyes, and said to Derrick: “I have cleared all the energy in your body. Now, it will take a long time for me to repair the energy core. You can lie down.”
Derrick sat in a wheelchair in a very upright manner. It could be seen that someone helped put him in a good-looking posture. But after sitting in this posture for a long time, he would slip out.
Jin WoWo could not be interrupted in the middle of repairing the energy core, otherwise all previous efforts would be lost.
“Yes, just press the green button on the armrest of my right hand to put me in a lying position. I have to trouble the master to help me.” Derrick chuckled.
Before Jin WoWo could reach out his hand, Raymond stepped forward in two steps and pressed the green button.
Derrick blinked and said, “Thank you.”
The backrest of the wheelchair slowly lowered, and the pedals were slowly raised until they were all flat.
Derrick was lying flat in the wheelchair. He turned his head and looked at Jin WoWo, smiling gently: “The master has been standing. It’s been hard for you. It would be better to sit on a soft chair.”
Raymond, who just turned around to move the soft chair: “…”
Raymond moved the soft chair and did not place it on Derrick’s side, but deliberately placed it on top of Derrick’s head.
This way, if Derrick wanted to peek at Jin WoWo, he had to roll his eyes upwards. Even then, he might not be able to see Jin WoWo.
Derrick glanced at the master’s bodyguard and smiled clearly.
Derrick had already deduced that the master was a very young subbeast. Just now, he saw the eyes of the master. Those eyes gave him a feeling of deja vu, as if he had seen them somewhere.Jules’ Corner
