Shadows of the Deep Space-Chapter 640 - 359: The Guest Usurps the Host (5 in 1)_3

...

"How should I know? How could my son be a Quasi-General?"

Su Yuan was trembling, he had never seen a General level officer in his life, and now his son was a Quasi-General.

Zhao Ning was also shocked. Although she had guessed something, she hadn’t expected Su Ming to become a Quasi-General.

That was something she had never dared to imagine before.

"Everyone, calm down!"

Su Mulong shouted to the uproarious guests.

The on-site noise gradually subsided.

"Since all the guests are gathered here today, please help me witness something! I now announce two things. First, our Su Family will create an additional Vice Clan Leader position, and it will be occupied by my son Su Zhen Tian!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Su Yao and the others were instantly overjoyed, each showing expressions of immense excitement.

"Father is becoming the Vice Clan Leader!"

"That’s great!"

....

As the saying goes, when one person achieves success, everyone around them benefits. With Su Zhen Tian returning to the family to become Vice Clan Leader, the status of Su Yao and the others would rise significantly.

The reason Su Zhen Tian could become Vice Clan Leader was partly because the old Clan Leader wanted him to return to the family.

Another reason was thanks to Su Ming, with a touch of the concept that the mother gains status through her son.

Of course, with joy comes displeasure for some.

Su Mulong had married many wives, and most of those offspring from different mothers had been separated from the Zong Family and set up their own families; they were also attending the banquet.

Upon hearing that Su Zhen Tian was becoming Vice Clan Leader, their expressions were very displeased.

At the main table, Clan Leader Su Feng and Vice Clan Leader Su Yiyang heard their father’s announcement and both fell into silence.

Su Tianhao’s hand under the table clenched into a fist, his bones creaking.

As for Su Zhen Tian, he felt both joy and sorrow; the pent-up frustration over the years finally began to release.

Then Su Mulong addressed the guests.

"Now for the second announcement, I, Su Mulong, have always kept my word, treating my offspring equally. I previously said that whoever can be promoted to Quasi-General, as long as they collect the materials for the Fake V Generation Mecha, the family will unconditionally create a Fake V Generation Mecha·Thunder God for them! I now officially announce that the family will reserve a production slot each for Su Yuan and Su Ming."

Su Ming heard Su Mulong’s words and was overjoyed; he hadn’t expected such good fortune.

Clap! Clap!

The attendees all began to give a warm applause.

"Amazing, two production slots!"

"My god! A Fake V Generation Mecha! There’s no way to buy that through regular channels."

"This is the beginning of a glorious rise."

"Alright, thank you all for witnessing this. Please continue dining."

After making the announcement, Su Mulong stepped off the stage and returned to the main table.

Su Ming immediately expressed his gratitude towards Su Mulong.

"Thank you, Great-Grandfather!"

"We’re all family, no need to thank me! Under normal circumstances, I should prepare a Fake V Generation Mecha·Thunder God directly for you and Su Yuan. However, the materials for the Fifth Generation Mecha are extremely scarce. The recent mining efforts in the Three Forbidden Zones have struggled, and the materials we managed to obtain were requisitioned by the Federation for producing Fake V Generation Mechas, so you will have to collect the materials yourself."

Su Mulong said gravely to Su Ming.

"Your great-grandfather is right. The materials for the Fifth Generation Mecha are extremely rare. Not only Thunder God Group but even we can’t produce them."

The Beludo duo agreed.

"Understood, I will collect the materials myself."

Su Ming had not expected the situation to be this dire.

"Take your time collecting the materials, don’t rush! These materials are not easy to gather. Producing the Fake V Generation Mecha requires a large amount of Grade 5 Titanium Stone. You should know that Grade 5 Titanium Stone is sold by the gram on the market, and a single mecha requires a quantity measured in tons. You can imagine its value. Your grandfather left the family because he lost a significant batch of Grade 5 Titanium Stone."

Su Mulong said gravely to Su Ming.

"I understand."

Su Ming nodded solemnly in response.

Su Mulong continued.

"Additionally, producing the Fake V Generation Mecha is not just difficult because of the Grade 5 Titanium Stone; the most troublesome part is the Eternal Metal!"

"Does the Fake V Generation Mecha also require Eternal Metal?"

Su Ming asked in surprise.

"Of course it does. The amount just varies. The more materials you collect, the stronger the mecha will be! I will have Siron Butler send you the detailed material list."

Su Mulong explained to Su Ming.

"Okay!"

Upon hearing this, Su Ming’s head began to ache even more.

He had a bottle of Eternal Metal on hand, but the amount was embarrassingly small.

At this moment, Su Zhen Tian spoke after much deliberation.

"Father, I would like to request two Fourth Generation Mecha·Thunder Guard."

"For whom?"

"One for Su Rui, and one for Su Ming."

"Then just take one. Su Ming, you should have your own Fourth Generation Mecha, right?"

Su Mulong turned to Su Ming and asked.

Normally, anyone promoted to Quasi-General would definitely have a good Fourth Generation Mecha.

"Yes, but it was damaged and is currently being repaired at the Military Department."

Su Ming replied honestly to Su Mulong.

"Don’t bother fixing it. The Military Department can repair your mecha, but the materials they use won’t be good; it’ll just be a standard repair. Bring the mecha back home, and we’ll modify and strengthen it. We’ll use the best materials for you, as you’re family."

Su Mulong was also unimpressed with the Military Department’s repair, and directly said so to Su Ming.

"Alright, Great-Grandfather."

Su Ming was surprised but agreed immediately.
