One Night!
âInformation.â Jiang Li opened Wang Gangâs information window and started reading.
âMech Type: Combat Mechâ
âLevel: Mid-stage of level oneâ
âNo.: GD01 (Wang Gang)â
âSkills: Level-one intermediate combat artâ
âEquipment: Level-one intermediate special alloy glovesâ
âCharacteristics: A mechanical creation that isnât afraid of dying, canât feel pain and is extremely loyal. It stops functioning only if its heart is broken or 90% of its body is destroyed. After it dies, it can be recycled for half of the energy points of the cost.â
âCondition to Reach the Next Level: 40 energy pointsâ
âHm, thatâs alright.â
Jiang Li nodded. âHe reached the mid-stage of level one and has new equipment. His power increased quite a bit, as expected, but the energy points needed for the next upgrade have doubled.â
Soon a Combat Mech and two Cold Weapon Meches were completed. The virtual figures became realistic and appeared in the room. Now there were three more meches in there, which made it a bit crowded.
âCombat Mech, GD02.â
âCold Weapon Mech, LBQ03.â
âCold Weapon Mech, LBQ04.â
âGreetings, Master!â
All three meches were male. They immediately saluted to Jiang Li.
âGood.â Jiang Li smiled and nodded, but he didnât name these three meches.
Speaking of which, Jiang Li named Wang Gang, Wang Yan and Wang Long at first because there werenât many meches and it was more convenient to call them names. After all, he couldnât call their numbers in front of people so it would be much easier for them to have a name.
However, as the number of meches increased, naming became somewhat troublesome. To avoid trouble, he wouldnât name any other meches anymore and would just call them by their numbers.
Jiang Li arranged a room right next to his for the meches. After all, the seven of them couldnât stay in the same room.
âIt must be four in the morning already.â Jiang Li looked outside the window and felt a bit sleepy. He yawned, but didnât go to sleep. Instead, he started organizing the things he got today.
The medicines he got had already been converted to energy points. After making and repairing the meches, three points were left. The energy points werenât enough at all.
âI got seven Martial Arts books. Two of them are level-one elementary internal force art, including the âEnergy Nurturing Artâ and âVitality Nurturing Art.â There was also a level-one intermediate internal force art, the âVitality Enhancing Art.'â
Jiang Li took out the books. âThe remaining ones are on Martial Arts. There are two level-one elementary arts, the âBull Fistâ and âDragon Steps,â two level-one intermediate arts, the Bloody Palm and Wicked Snake Hand, and lastly the âFive Poison Art.'â
âI should just put aside the Martial Arts first,â Jiang Li murmured. âAfter all, this is something that takes time and hard work. Besides, the level of these books are too low. They wonât really be powerful even when I finish practicing them.â
âAs for the gold and silver, there are a total of seven thousand taels of silver, which can be used to buy sixty portions of medicines that are worth a hundred taels. I can convert them into 60 energy points in total, which is quite a lot.â
âAlso, Iâll take down the Axe Gang and Red Flame Gang tomorrow. If everything goes well, Iâll be able to get more medicines, gold and silver. Finally, the pills.â
Jiang Li took out the porcelain bottle and counted. There were eighteen Blood Energy Pills inside. He mumbled, âWith these Blood Energy Pills and the precious âVitality Strengthening Pill,â I should be able to form internal force and become a level-one Martial Artist in a short amount of time.â
Of course, when practicing internal force, he couldnât take too many pills. If he did, he would need time to digest them, or his foundation would be unstable and he could even go crazy.
âLetâs sleep. Thereâs a lot to do tomorrow so I need to rest well.â
Jiang Li put the Martial Arts books and pills into the boxes, then put them in the secret compartment under his bed and went to sleep.
And yet, Jiang Li couldnât sleep. Memories about things that happened in his last life came to his mind. Nevertheless, alot had happened today and Jiang Li was exhausted, so he fell asleep without knowing.
After several hours, the sun came out. Rays of sunlight shone on Jiang Liâs face. He frowned and woke up.
âI now realize the position of the bed is really bad. Itâs right in front of the window, so the sunlight shone all over my face. I canât sleep well. Besides, if thereâs an assassin, he can just shoot an arrow into my head through the window and Iâll be dead,â Jiang Li mumbled and felt like he should move somewhere else, or at least change the position of the bed.
In the past âJiang Liâ used to have a maid, Xiao Lan, who prepared toiletries and breakfast for him, but nobody served him now as she was dead.
âChief.â
Outside the door Ma Hanâs voice came as he knocked gently.
âCome in.â Jiang Li got up and got changed.
He had to say that this world was a bit like the ancient times of China, especially the clothes. They all had long sleeves, so it was inconvenient to wear. Jiang Li took some time to put them on according to his memory, though he still looked a little messy.
âYes, Chief.â The door opened and Ma Han entered the room. Behind him was a little girl who was lowering her head anxiously.
âWho is she?â Jiang Li sized her up.
âWell Chief, Xiao Lan died accidentally. As the leader of the Sirius Gang, how can there be no maid to take care of you?â Ma Han smiled and said, âSo, I found you an obedient and cute maid who serves people well.â
ââŠâ
The girl kept her head low and remained silent. She looked really nervous.
âWhere did you find her?â Jiang Li asked.
âDonât worry, Chief. She sold herself to bury her father. I found her pitiful and smart, so I bought her. She should be alright,â Ma Han answered quickly.
âHaha.â Jiang Li laughed and glanced at Ma Han. âSo, how did you know this girl is obedient, cute and serves people well?â
âUmâŠâ Ma Han hesitated.
âFine, leave her here. I indeed need a maid,â Jiang Li said.
âYes, Chief.â Ma Han was thrilled.
In fact, Ma Han only thought the girl looked fair and Jiang Li had just become the leader of the gang, so he wanted to buy her for Jiang Li as a gift. The main purpose was to please Jiang Li.
âWhatâs your name?â Jiang Li looked at the girl and asked.
âMy Lord⊠Iâm Du Xiaohua,â the girl replied anxiously.
âJust call me âMasterâ from now on,â Jiang Li said.
âYes, Master.â The girl nodded immediately.
âKeep your head up,â Jiang Li said.
âHmâŠâ The girl looked up nervously. Her face was thin and sallow. Although she was wearing some clean clothes, her skinny body and what she had gone through couldnât be hidden. However, the shape of her face and her body figure were pretty good. If she ate more and grew well, she would look better.
âMa Han surely has good taste,â Jiang Li mumbled. âHm, from now on, youâll be my maid. Youâll take care of my daily life.â
âYes, Master.â Du Xiaohua nodded. âIâll do my best.â
