Chapter 104 The Lion King: No Effect
Under Broly's insistence, Leone had no choice but to accept the outcome that he had to take the money.
But she'll have to go back and calculate the exact amount she'll receive.
"It doesn't matter how much money you want, I'll give you whatever you ask for. The important thing is that you feel happy while repaying others' kindness!"
Before parting, Broly made sure to give Leone this advice.
After learning from Esdeath that hunting Dangerous Species and exchanging their special materials for money would make money in this world, earning money became effortless for Broly.
If he really wanted to make money, he could go into the wild and hunt a large number of dangerous species at a speed unimaginable to ordinary people in this world to harvest special materials, and then use those materials to exchange for money.
What, you think this isn't fast enough to make money?
Okay, then let's set our sights directly on the super dangerous species.
According to Esdeath, the rewards for hunting down a super dangerous species are usually in the tens of millions, and it's not uncommon for them to exceed a hundred million.
Super Dangerous Species represent beings that require the deployment of an army to potentially defeat, and the special materials from these terrifying creatures are extremely valuable.
It's worth mentioning that the aura of super dangerous species far surpasses that of normal creatures. People in this world may not encounter super dangerous species often, but in Broly's perception, these creatures are like beacons in the darkness, shining brightly in this world.
Among them, the one that Broly felt was the most powerful was the aura from the east. Just considering the amount of aura, the owner of this aura was probably no weaker than the giant Wanpa Spider on Wanpa Star, which had a combat power of 5,000.
If necessary, Broly wouldn't mind hunting down the owner of this aura; the more powerful a super dangerous species is, the more valuable its special materials will be.
. . . .
On Mount Jianglong, tens of thousands of meters high in the East China Sea, a great azure dragon, which had been coiled there for an unknown period of time, was suddenly awakened.
Upon waking, the vertical-pupiled dragon eye warily surveyed its surroundings. It vaguely remembered that the last time it slept, a group of tiny people had secretly climbed up here and taken its shed fur. However, last time it had easily swept them away with a single sweep of its tail. This time, however, it felt a chill run down its spine, as if it were being watched by an unknown being, one that was even more terrifying than itself.
[Being targeted? Me?]
The Great Azure Dragon was somewhat puzzled. It had lived for a very long time and sometimes, when it woke up, it would travel all over the world, but it had never encountered a being stronger than itself. However, it felt like it was being targeted by something.
This ominous feeling reminded it of its early days, when the world was still dangerous and there were many beings more powerful than itself, but they all gradually perished in the struggles.
After thinking for a moment, the Great Azure Dragon decided to hide. With a roar, its enormous body soared into the sky.
In just over ten seconds, the massive body broke free from the pull of gravity and headed towards the outermost layer of the planet's atmosphere.
After hearing the dragon's roar from the sky, many villagers in some villages at the foot of Jianglong Mountain ran out and knelt down to kowtow.
The people here regard the Great Azure Dragon as their local guardian deity, unaware that it is because of a Saiyan's desire to hunt it.
After their god sensed this inexplicable malice, he immediately took the risk of flying to the highest heavens to escape the unknown disaster.
. . . .
Back at the hotel, Broly looked up, somewhat surprised.
He could sense a massive aura to the east, which suddenly moved away from the planet.
I don't know what caused the other party to suddenly do this.
However, it doesn't matter. The other party is not far from the planet, a distance that he can easily catch up with.
[If Leone needs a lot of money, and I don't have enough right now, I'll just make that massive, distant creature my prey!]
Broly made this decision quite happily. He didn't originally have any main hunting target, but the sudden flight of the owner of that huge aura to the east caught his attention.
. . . .
The Great Azure Dragon was very uneasy. After entering the outer atmosphere, the feeling of being watched became even stronger. However, since it did not know where the danger came from, it was unsure whether to go directly into space or descend into the deep sea.
This feeling of trepidation lasted for more than ten hours before suddenly disappearing without a trace.
. . . .
"What? You only need three million three hundred thousand?"
Broly asked in surprise.
"Isn't that too much?"
Leone was a little embarrassed.
"No, it's too little. Would you like some more?"
Broly was a little worried that if he asked for less money, the other person wouldn't be happy enough.
"No, no more is needed. Only thirty-three families have truly helped me. Giving each family a reward of 100,000 yuan is enough to change their impoverished situation. As for giving more money, that might not be a good thing."
Leone shook his head and refused, then told Broly about the man who found a treasure painting on the black market and became rich overnight.
"I heard that after suddenly becoming rich, that person changed his original lifestyle and became addicted to gambling. After becoming rich, he not only did not find happiness, but ended up with his family ruined and his life destroyed. I want to repay those people, not seek revenge."
Leone wasn't very old, but having grown up in the streets and alleys, she had a clear understanding of many things.
Money is a good thing, but if a poor family suddenly has too much money, it can easily ruin that family.
The lessons learned from the past are there for all to see. Whether it's losing your mindset after becoming rich overnight or being targeted and tricked by bad people, these are all things to be careful about.
"All right."
After listening to Leone's reasoning, Broly had no choice but to accept the outcome. His plan to use the world's money to exchange for the other party's happiness level had only been partially executed and could not continue.
Broly could only hope that the other person might still need money and that they could find happiness in receiving it.
"Oh right, I know how to use this belt now. It's controlled by thought."
After taking the money, Leone began to talk about the belt.
When she got home last night, she started figuring things out on her own.
Thinking that the belt might make a sound, I tried asking the belt.
As it turned out, the belt actually responded.
Of course, this isn't a precise user manual response, but rather a feeling.
She followed her instincts, and the transformation into a catgirl was canceled.
"So that's how it is. This is the Imperial Arms?"
Akame and the others knew what happened last night, and their eyes lit up as they crowded over to look at Leone's belt.
"Could we try on your belt?"
Mine asked directly.
Leone looked at Broly, and seeing the boy nod, she had no choice but to hand over the magic belt.
Unsurprisingly, the people in the suite started playing a transformation game.
The cat-eared girls are a feast for the eyes, but the belts seem to be a bit selective in terms of who can pull them off.
A delicate girl like Mine collapsed completely after using it just once.
"This thing is very physically demanding; you can't use it without a strong body."
This is a sharp commentary on Merard, who has transformed into a cat-eared girl.
In terms of combat, Merad thought this Imperial Arm was a bit of a waste for her, as she would conserve her strength before launching an attack. However, in terms of other practical uses, she thought it was a pretty good sex toy.
"Although I have enough stamina and can feel my body has been greatly enhanced, that's about it. It doesn't allow me to unleash a powerful energy cannon attack like you..."
After Esdeath transformed into a cat-eared girl and found that she still couldn't unleash her energy blasts, she took off her belt and held it on her fingertips. It was clear that she was somewhat disgusted by the belt's effect.
"..."
If the Imperial Arms [Lion King] could actually speak, it would probably say something like: "So what if you don't wear me?!"
Finally, Broly tried it too, but there was no response.
"Could it have been damaged from being worn too much?"
Broly was somewhat skeptical.
"That shouldn't be the case."
Merad took the belt and tried it on, finding that she could still transform into a catgirl, but when she handed it to Broly to use again, it still didn't work.
After several attempts, Merard suddenly realized, "I understand! It's probably because your body is too strong, exceeding the requirements of the super-dangerous species used to make this thing, which is why this Imperial Arm can't enhance you!"
