Picking Up Supreme Treasures in the Dream Realm-Chapter 477 - 334, Miles’s Widow_3
He made a deal with Miles, then helped Miles enter the power core of the Federation, the Azure Palace.
Miles brazenly launched an attack that injured the Grand Commander, killed the Second Commander, and crippled half of the Azure Palace.
This was the world-shocking Azure Palace attack.
At that time, Eastern Great Xia was busy moving the Celestial Mountain back home.
The Carmenia Federation was distracted by the attack, and couldn’t deal with it, so could only watch helplessly as Great Xia monopolized the Celestial Mountain.
Afterward, many Carmenia experts reflected, believing this was a huge strategic blunder.
Because later events proved that Great Xia acquired a large amount of precious Primordial materials from the Celestial Mountain, leading to an industrial advancement.
Before the Celestial Mountain incident, Great Xia’s industrial strength indeed led the Carmenia Federation, although both countries were about equal in advanced manufacturing.
After the Celestial Mountain incident, Great Xia’s advanced manufacturing suddenly outpaced the Carmenia Federation, with industrial strength comprehensively ahead of the Federation.
Unfortunately, the die was cast, and the Carmenians were powerless to change it.
And as repayment to Miles, Yang Fan promised to find Miles’ daughter with his ex-wife.
And to treat his daughter’s rare cancer — a neuroendocrine tumor.
Before the Age of Calamity, this was an incurable disease.
But after the Age of Calamity came, for Yang Fan, it was a piece of cake.
Back then, he killed a Black Sand Worm that entered Canglan Star through a spatial rift, and the country used the worm’s blood to create something called "Universal Potion."
Yang Fan spent half a month successfully locating Miles’ daughter, Trish, and injected her with a dose of Universal Potion.
The effect of the potion was unbelievably good; within a day, the tumor disappeared completely.
Miles’ ex-wife, Grace, seeing Yang Fan live alone, warmly invited him to stay at her house and even offered to cover his daily meals.
Considering Grace lived in the capital, White Stone City, Yang Fan wished to deeply understand this country, so he readily accepted.
Of course.
Yang Fan did not eat, drink, and sleep without contributing.
Since Grace was a single mom, he helped watch Little Trish while Grace was at work.
At this moment.
Little Trish finished munching on the tart in her hand, and chirped, "Mr. Magician, I’m done eating!"
Yang Fan pointed to the napkins on the table, smiling, "What should you do after eating?"
Trish chirped, "You have to wipe your hands, or else what’s on them will stain your clothes."
Yang Fan nodded, "Exactly!"
Trish stood on tiptoe, grabbed a napkin, and began earnestly wiping her hands.
Yang Fan slightly turned his head, and looked towards the direction of JICA Headquarters, a bit surprised: "The Ancient God Abomination’s destructive power is stronger than I expected."
The Ancient God Abomination that Yue Qiushan turned into was quickly killed by the Spirit Crow, not having time to show its destructive power, so he asked JICA to test it.
While Sebastian slaughtered everyone in a building in just two minutes, which gave him a small shock.
Very soon.
Trish raised her hands and joyfully shouted, "Mr. Magician, I’ve wiped them clean!"
After saying this, Little Trish looked eagerly at Yang Fan.
Yang Fan couldn’t help but laugh, "Alright, now you can watch TV, but not for more than half an hour."
Trish cheered happily, leaped to the couch, grabbed the remote, and turned on the TV.
As for why Little Trish called Yang Fan "Mr. Magician," there was an interesting story behind it.
During the time Yang Fan stayed at Trish’s house, he often conjured objects out of thin air, mostly food and daily necessities, and sometimes a few toys and clothes.
Little Trish was utterly amazed by this, considering these tricks as magic, and kept calling him "Mr. Magician."
Grace, however, saw that this was not magic.
Yet, knowing Yang Fan could produce precious medicine for cancer treatment, this single mom wasn’t surprised.
Then.
Something more interesting happened.
Grace developed a curious misunderstanding, seeing Yang Fan as the "Knight Thief" from novels and movies.
Because the life supplies Yang Fan conjured, came from a Carmenia Base submerged by the tsunami during the Arctic catastrophe.
The packaging of these items was intact, and the production dates were quite recent, resembling goods hoarded by the wealthy.
In this era of scarcity, offering so much casually would inevitably arouse suspicion.
The most amusing part was, though Grace was a police officer, she didn’t mind such "Knight Thief" behavior.
While eating, she would intentionally or unintentionally divulge information such as "certain wealthy individuals have hoarded so many supplies."
Yang Fan was utterly speechless about this.
Seriously, you are a police officer, is this really okay?
But on the other hand, this clearly illustrated how much the wealthy in Carmenia hoarded supplies.
The wealthy hoarded far beyond their needs, while ordinary people were forced to endure shortages and soaring prices.
Even the police officers couldn’t bear to see this.
After a while.
Trish took her eyes off the TV, turned to look at him, and asked, "Mr. Magician, are you dating my mom?"
The reason Little Trish asked this was because she had seen her mom and Mr. Magician in the living room several times, chatting and drinking late at night.
Yang Fan had intended to say "no," but seeing the expectation on Trish’s little face, he ultimately didn’t answer.
He understood Little Trish desperately hoped to have a father who cared for her and took care of her.
This was an instinct of human offspring.
And his recent actions, especially the frequent magical surprises for Little Trish, perfectly fulfilled Trish’s fantasy of a father.
As for Little Trish’s biological father, Miles.
Though he missed his daughter until his death, he wasn’t considered a competent father.
Miles had an intolerable habit: he loved drinking, and often resorted to domestic violence when drunk.
Trish had witnessed her father hitting her mother multiple times, leaving her deeply fearful of him.
Grace could not tolerate it, eventually separating from Miles.
To fight for custody of Trish, they went through a lawsuit.
Grace sought help from the police union, which deliberately exposed Miles’ domestic violence, leading to his unemployment.
This caused a series of chain reactions, which ultimately left Miles buried in debt and homeless.
In short, this was a melodramatic story.
At that moment.
Seeing Yang Fan not answering, Trish pressed on, "Mr. Magician, is it?"
Yang Fan thought a bit, then softly said, "Hey, little one, you’re still too young; it’s not something you need to worry about."
Trish pouted, "I’m not small anymore." 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎
Her little head seemed to be plotting something, and she added, "Mr. Magician, I can help create opportunities for you to win over my mom soon."
Yang Fan felt both amused and helpless.
He was about to speak, when suddenly he heard movement outside the door, turning to watch the apartment door.
A few seconds later.
"Click!"
The lock clicked.
The door was pushed open.
A white woman wearing a police officer uniform, with quite an attractive appearance, entered hurriedly.
She said anxiously, "Jack, something big happened in the West Third District; I heard thousands died over there!"
This was Miles’ widow — Grace.
Yang Fan twitched inadvertently at hearing this.
How could thousands be so exaggerated?
The Ancient God Abomination had only made it to the second building at JICA Headquarters before a team of superpower users arrived, even prompting the army to react.
Sebastian had just eliminated five superpower users when a group of Carmenians’ humanoid modified weapons, namely Punisher and Punisher, surrounded them.
The Ancient God Abomination, feeling surrounded by numerous foes, and fearing missile attacks, proactively used Snow Escape to vacate JICA Headquarters.
All in all, the death toll wouldn’t exceed 5,000.
