Collapse Iron: What does it mean to broaden the fate of four people in one sentence?

"Sacrifice feelings? Naive! Can feelings be exchanged for credits? Can feelings be exchanged for my starship? Can feelings be exchanged for my mansion? How many credits can feelings be exchanged for? Huh?"

"You people have no idea what success is! You can't understand what a qualified lone wolf is!"

His voice grew louder and faster, as if he were giving an impromptu speech.

Upon hearing this, Tail-Big-Master's anger vanished, and he drifted back to Huo Huo's side.

"This person is too extraordinary, there's no hope for him."

Chapter 241 My Loneliness, You Don't Understand

“But… Mr. Scott, there really is a problem with the goods you brought. I… I need to check them.”

Huo Huo looked at Scott and pointed to the cargo truck behind him.

She's been investigating the 'wild celestial being' that Tail-Grass Grandpa mentioned, but a few days ago Tail-Grass Grandpa said he can no longer sense that aura.

But today, Tail Grandpa said he felt it again. Huo Huo came out alone and, following Tail Grandpa's reminder, found Scott.

But Huo Huo really couldn't argue with Scott. Tail Master couldn't stand it and got into a fight with Scott. The commotion attracted Su Chang and her two companions. As soon as Su Chang saw the situation, she offered to help without saying a word.

As for Xinghe and March 7th? Just passing by to see what the fuss was about!

Scott stood with his hands on his hips, his chin held even higher than before. He glanced at the group in front of him, a contemptuous look on his face that said, "You're all ants."

"Huh? You'd better think this through. This is an important item for the Knowledge Society. If it gets damaged during inspection, can you afford to compensate for it?"

Su Chang and Li Su Chang exchanged a glance, and both of them frowned.

"Huh? You're such a snob!"

"Snobbish? Ha! Being a snobbish person can save me three hundred years of hard work!"

Scott stood with his hands on his hips.

"Do you know how many projects the Knowledge Society has waiting for a 'snobbish' like me to push forward? Credit points don't fall from the sky; every single one of them is earned through 'snobbishness'!"

He paused, then raised his voice a few octaves.

"Besides, what I call precise identification of resource allocation priorities! Article 37 of the Star Peace Corporation Training Manual: Spend your time on the most valuable people, that's efficiency!"

The tail-tailed old man floated beside Huo Huo, and the fire dimmed a bit.

"...In all my years of life, this is the first time I've seen someone describe 'snobbery' in such a fresh and elegant way."

Gui Naifen then interjected,

"But family, we have Cloud Riders. Shouldn't Cloud Riders have the authority to inspect goods?"

Su Chang was taken aback, then immediately stepped forward.

"That's right! I am Su Chang from the Ceyun Cavalry!"

Scott snorted softly, his gaze sweeping across Su Chang's face, then moving to Huo Huo's face, and finally landing on Tail Master.

His lips curled slightly, then he took a deep breath, his expression suddenly becoming serious.

"You don't understand at all. These aren't ordinary goods; they were specifically requested by the Knowledge Society."

'Interstellar Peace Entertainment Limited Edition - Pinocchio Dream Experience Warehouse - Foufu Collaboration - Built-in Black Tower Mini Voice Pack - Limited Release - Only This Batch'.

Each one has a unique serial number, each one is a one-of-a-kind, and each one carries the expectations of 30 million players across the universe!

If you start the inspection, what if dust gets inside?

What if the chip gets interfered with by your quantum crystal network?

What if your cloud rider slips?

Can you afford to compensate? Even if you can, 30 million players have been waiting for an Amber Era restock; how will you compensate them?

He paused, took a breath, and then added a sentence.

"So, an inspection is possible. First, you need to sign a liability waiver, a confidentiality agreement, a compensation agreement, an agreement for advance payment of emotional distress damages, and one..."

The flames of the Tail-Grandpa flickered, interrupting Scott's speech.

"You bastard, did you just copy the whole company contract template over here?"

Scott nodded confidently.

"I am a qualified lone wolf, and carrying a contract with me is a basic professional quality."

The group remained silent for a moment.

Xing scratched her head and turned to look at March 7th.

"What did he mean in March? I didn't understand a single word he said."

March 7th also scratched his head.

"...I didn't understand either. But it sounded very expensive."

"Okay, I admit it."

Scott's voice suddenly lowered, and he lowered his hands from his waist, letting them hang at his sides, as if he had unloaded something.

"These goods do indeed have problems."

His tone was heavy.

"It's not the kind of problem you think it is. It's not contraband, it's not dangerous, it's not anything shady."

Huo Huo was stunned. Su Chang was also stunned. Tail Master looked at Scott suspiciously.

"What is the problem?"

Huo Huo's voice was very soft, but very earnest.

Scott took a deep breath, as if he were making a very important decision.

He took two steps forward, approached Huo Huo, bent down, and lowered his voice, but his voice was actually loud enough for everyone to hear.

"These goods contain what I've saved up over the years,"

He paused, then his eyes suddenly reddened.

"My loneliness."

The scene was deathly silent.

"What?"

Tail-boss was the first to react, and the flames suddenly leaped.

Scott straightened up, spread his arms, and looked up at the sky.

"Why do you think I work so hard? Why do you think I sacrifice my feelings? Why do you think I betray everyone?"

His voice echoed in the night sky.

"Because of loneliness! Loneliness is my motivation! It is the source of everything for me!"

He pointed to the cargo ship behind him, and...

"What's inside is my collection of 'loneliness' over the years."

I've saved every sleepless night, every pain after betrayal, and every tear that has flowed!

I want to take this loneliness out and let those high and mighty P40s see how I, Scott, got to where I am today!

I will climb step by step to the highest point! I will stand at the summit, becoming a lone wolf, solitary and untamed!

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Gui Naifen was stunned, Su Chang's mouth was agape, Li Su Chang's hand holding the teacup froze in mid-air, March 7th's camera was held up but the shutter was forgotten, and Xing tilted her head, looking confused as if to say, "What is this person saying?"

The tail-tailed old man floated in mid-air, the firelight flickering.

"I'm truly impressed."

His voice was muffled, carrying a sense of frustration, like "I want to hit someone but I can't."

"...This isn't loneliness, this is insane!"

The company employees who were with Scott all looked deeply moved.

"As expected of Mr. Scott!"

"So that's it! This is Mr. Scott's ideal!"

"Let's get this fired up, brothers! We're going to show those high and mighty big shots what the perseverance of ordinary people really means!"

Xing watched the company employees' passionate performance, scratching her head. She felt like she'd seen this scene somewhere before; at Belleburg, the company employees were doing the same thing...

Xing fell into deep thought.

"Are the company's employees really this united?"

Scott heard Xing's mutterings and gave a soft hum.

"That's right! The Star Peace Corporation is one family!"

One company employee was unaffected by the atmosphere and muttered something under his breath.

"Aren't we being treated like servants by Mr. Scott?"

The untimely voice was so abrupt that everyone turned to look at him.

Scott looked at him and coughed lightly.

"What's wrong with the grandson? Isn't the grandson family too?"

The tail-wearing man looked at Scott, then at the company employee, and finally uttered only two words.

"unbelievable."

Chapter 242 Why can birds fly?

The atmosphere in Lin Sijia's living room was somewhat strange.

When they returned, the little black tower figure came out for some reason, so 'Xianle' appeared in Lin Si's living room once again.

"Lady Black Tower is unparalleled! Lady Black Tower is exceptionally intelligent!..."

Walter sat in a chair, his cane resting on the armrest, his hands clasped on his knees.

His gaze shifted from Rakshasa's face to Huang Quan's face, then back to Rakshasa's face, repeating this several times, his expression growing increasingly somber.

His lips moved slightly, then closed again. He had many questions he wanted to ask, such as why the little black tower man was here, and whether Lin Si was really from Earth.

But he didn't get any answers.

"The Collapse has really caught up with me!"

His voice was very low, so low it sounded like he was talking to himself.

But each word carries a calm that says, "I've come to terms with it," beneath which lies something indescribable.

Huang Quan sat upright on the sofa opposite him, still holding the unfinished bottle of soda water in his hand. He took another sip, frowned slightly, and then took another sip.

Silver Wolf sat cross-legged on the carpet, with Prometheus floating in front of her. She swiped her fingers across the screen a few times, then a few more times, "chasing" back the little black tower figures that had come out of Lin Si's bedroom.

Then a "seal" was added to the door. A string of glowing code flashed on the door frame and then disappeared.

She nodded in satisfaction and put Prometheus away.

Rakshasa lay on the sofa, still asleep, breathing steadily, his golden hair scattered on the armrest.

Lin Si sat next to Luo Sha, replying to Yan Qing's messages on her phone.

Yanqing said that Yunli had forged a divine weapon, and the name of this divine weapon was exactly the same as the name of the sword that the future Yanqing had given him.

Walter looked at Huang Quan, remained silent for a moment, and then decided to confirm it again.

He pushed up his glasses, trying to keep his voice steady.

"Madam, may I ask your name?"

Huang Quan put down the soda and looked at Walter, then at the scepter in his hand, and then at Rakshasa, who was still "asleep".

"A knight-errant who patrols the seas, now in the underworld."

Her voice was soft and her tone was flat.
