Long Live Money in Anime Crossover

Fourth update, nine more to go.

120 with a face that regenerates at super-fast speed

Seeing Momo suddenly turn into a child and start crying, Asuna felt a little amused and exasperated.

Asuna, who was already quite familiar with Momo, could naturally tell that Momo's words at this moment were basically not true and were just joking around. Not only Asuna, but everyone in the distance except CC was shocked to see their beloved Kirin Prodigy suddenly become like this, completely lacking his mature and steady image.

This is probably what is meant by "idol disillusionment."

However, Momo isn't your average idol. An average idol would probably put on airs because they care about their image. But with Momo, as long as Asuna is happy and can overcome this little bit of crying...

That little bit of shame... just throw it away!

Anyway, Mo Mo's skin has the ability to regenerate super fast.

Momo's unbridled act of acting like a child made Asuna feel awkward. Asuna saw the shocked looks on the faces of the large group of people in the distance and realized that she was currently doing something very intimate with Momo.

"Mo Mo, that's enough, you'll set a bad example for the children!"

Asuna blushed and pushed Momo's head away, saying, "Alright, I know you want to comfort me, and I'm not that fragile. I'm back now, aren't I?"

“I understand. The battlefield... is ultimately not the right place for me. Since you also want me back, then that's perfect. I'll stay by your side and help you from now on, Momo.”

Momo blinked, staring into Asuna's eyes, and asked, "Really?"

Asuna smiled slightly and said, "I am now your Heroic Spirit, how could I be so fragile?"

Momo nodded. Whether Asuna had truly moved on or was just pretending to be strong, as long as she was willing to come to Momo's side, she would soon find a place to demonstrate her value.

Asuna's personality is ultimately not suited to dealing with steel and military formations, while Momo has many things that are suitable for her.

"Well then, Asuna, I have a favor to ask you now."

After saying that, Mo Mo beckoned, and Jiang Lihua and Karen, who had been eagerly anticipating the moment, immediately rushed over.

Karen remained somewhat reserved, but Jiang Lihua rushed to Asuna's side, affectionately hugged Asuna's waist, and said, "Teacher's wife, Teacher's wife, have you really become a hero? Have you really become a hero!"

Seeing Jiang Lihua suddenly become so kind, Asuna felt a little uncomfortable, but her maternal instincts quickly kicked in, and she got used to it.

"I... am not a hero, I just provided help to everyone and did my part."

"No! Master's wife must be a hero. Many people have told me that she defeated many enemies in the west! Master's wife, can you tell me about what happened there in a bit? I want to hear it, I want to hear it!"

Karen chimed in, "Asuna, can you tell me the situation on the battlefield? Momo won't let me into the command room or show me the video footage."

Asuna glanced at Momo, seeking his opinion. Momo nodded and said, "Although they are still children, you know their identities, so it's only right that they learn something. Besides, I believe you, Asuna, will be able to handle things appropriately."

Asuna nodded, looking at the two excited faces in front of her, and the smile on her lips finally became natural, no longer a forced one. She said, "Okay, let's go home first, and then I'll tell you a story!"

……

They brought Asuna back and placed two children by her side, quickly dispelling her sorrow with their smiles. Next, Momo was about to launch a massive construction project across China, and if Asuna wanted to, there were plenty of positions and jobs for her to demonstrate her value.

With the battle settled, Argo was also freed, and the ones who had been holding Asuna back changed from two children to two children and a little mouse.

This left Asuna both amused and exasperated. Even if she wanted to ask Momo for help, it would be impossible, because Momo had no time to rest before being summoned by the Emperor again.

As for CC, she always maintains a detached, detached attitude, eating pizza and watching the show, and is clearly incapable of helping anyone.

It seems Asuna is destined to deal with two children for a while.

……

"You... won just like that?"

Gao Hai also wore a neural connection device around his neck. At present, Mo Mo, the Emperor, and Gao Hai were in the old Emperor's bedroom in the Forbidden City. The old Emperor and Gao Hai were also using the neural connection device to check the battle report.

Gao Hai's face was full of disbelief. Although the images playing in front of him and the reports from officers at all levels were accurate and detailed, he still couldn't believe it.

Because all of this was beyond his imagination.

In just one night, such a short time, the battle was won?

The local army of 300,000 elite troops was completely defeated overnight. When did the local army become so weak?

Is the world changing too fast, or is the place just full of good-for-nothings?

No... it can't be a bunch of good-for-nothings. Even if the rest of the country is corrupt, the Liaodong Military Region borders the EU and Britannia's sphere of influence. Under such circumstances, the Liaodong Military Region's combat effectiveness is still guaranteed.

But... Cao Yuanming died, nearly 130,000 Northeastern troops surrendered, and the western front also achieved a complete victory. This battle was not only won, but won decisively, almost like a miracle.

The old emperor also showed a relieved smile. Although he had remained indifferent before, it was mainly because he could no longer control Mo Mo and could only trust him. As for whether Mo Mo could truly win the war using the information and technology he provided, he wasn't entirely confident.

Fortunately, the results have now proven that everything Momer did was correct.

It's good that you won, it's good that you won!

In any case, the country and the land still belong to the Chiang family, don't they?

"Alright, Gao Hai, accept reality. Now you understand why I disagreed with you when you criticized the Special Reaction Force, the new equipment, and especially the Shenlong Cannon built under Mo Mo's supervision as useless, right?"

"What Momo brought was a completely new concept of warfare, no longer the kind of warfare we had in mind before. Now the results have proven that Momo was right, so you should stop dwelling on the past."

Gao Hai frowned, but could only nod in the end. He then bowed to Mo Mo and said, "I was too cautious before and dared not believe these new things. Please don't mind, Lord Mo."

Gao Hai's apology this time seemed genuinely heartfelt; at least for now, he was truly convinced of Mo Mo's strength in both technology and military capabilities.

According to Gao Hai's original plan, when facing an army of 300,000, wouldn't it be necessary to kill a mountain of corpses and a river of blood no matter what?

The Yellow River might even turn red for a few days because of this.

But now, under Momo's command, overnight, all the local armies were turned into frightened birds. At dawn, all the local armies suffered the direct blow of the "decapitation operation" that Momo spoke of, and the death of Cao Yuanming was the best proof of this.

Without leadership, morale, and logistical support, the army became a complete joke. Even with hundreds of thousands of soldiers, they were no longer an army; they were just hundreds of thousands of ordinary people.

The war... is indeed over, however unbelievable it may seem, it is indeed over.

"At the same time, congratulations to Lord Mo for making such a tremendous contribution. The whole world will know the name of the Chinese Qilin Talent in the future."

Mo Mo shook his head slightly, but the old emperor laughed and said, "Mo Mo, you can't escape this time. Are you planning to give the credit to someone else?"

"This credit doesn't belong to me. It's thanks to the command of Your Majesty and Lord Gao, the on-site response of Artoria and Jiang Shang's generals on both sides, and the countless soldiers who risked their lives on the battlefield. Although we didn't suffer many casualties this time, we still had some who died or were wounded. They are the true heroes of this war."

"As for me, I'm just a minor technical advisor. If Your Majesty truly believes I've made a contribution, why not simply let go and allow me to go into business?"

Hearing Momo say those words again, Gao Hai and the old emperor were not surprised, but still puzzled. They couldn't understand why Momo, who clearly had the opportunity to become a powerful minister, was uninterested in power and military strength.

On the contrary, Momo was quite interested in economic development, business development, and so on.

"You...you really don't want it?"

The emperor's question seemed abrupt and unrelated, but the three people present all understood what he was talking about.

"Not interested."

The old emperor shook his head with a wry smile. He not only didn't understand, but even suspected that Mo Mo was playing hard to get. However, since Mo Mo had spoken, he had no choice but to believe him.

"So, Gao Hai, let's proceed with the rewards based on merit. Except for Mo Mo's case, which will be put on hold, the rest will be evaluated and discussed by our subordinates. After that, give me a plan. Let's put this matter aside for now and talk about what to do next."

"Yes."

Gao Hai agreed, and then the three of them fell silent. Although the Battle of Luoyang had been won, and won beautifully, what should they do next?

The Battle of Luoyang was won, but this was only the first step.

"Mo Mo, what are your plans next?"

Mo Mo did not answer immediately. He suddenly clicked in front of him, then flicked his hand, bringing two documents into the view of Gao Hai and the old emperor. He said, "Instead of figuring out how to act, why don't we first take a look at the current situation of the Chinese Empire and the world situation?"

After Mo Mo finished speaking, the old emperor and Gao Hai were immediately drawn to the information in front of them and were shocked.

Author's Note:

PS: Book Recommendation: There's a saying that goes, "People these days have no morals; they're always throwing around suggestive content." They'll throw around suggestive content in everything, even writing books, and it always happens unexpectedly and without warning. But Wei Qingdi's book, *The Old Driver's Expedition Across the Myriad Realms*, just from the title, you should understand the book's meaning.

PS2: First update today.

121 If all else fails, let's resort to what's known since ancient times!

Previously, the old emperor and Gao Hai only knew about what Mo Mo had done, but they did not have a clear understanding of the consequences of those actions.

The victory in last night's battle still left the two of them somewhat bewildered, after all, 300,000 troops had been utterly defeated overnight. Although Momo had provided ample reasons, it was still beyond their comprehension.

One of the reasons Momo gave was his previous information warfare attacks across the country. For Gao Hai and the old emperor, this was still something they knew the facts about but not the underlying reasons.

They knew that Momo had launched an information warfare attack, targeting computers across the country and disrupting the nation's information networks and data. So what happened next?

Despite their exceptional knowledge, they were still unable to grasp things that were beyond their comprehension. They knew Momo had done it, but they didn't fully understand the consequences of his actions.

Now, thanks to the information provided by Momo, they have a clear understanding of all this and the terrible consequences of information warfare.

It turns out that, without their awareness, the world had become quite reliant on computers and the internet, industries that are not particularly developed in this world. Unconsciously, many things have become centered around computers and the internet.

When one day, Momo suddenly removes computers and the internet from the world, it seems that only paralysis awaits that world.

Power outages, communication disruptions, transportation paralysis, and bank shutdowns—the more developed the region or city, the greater the impact.

It's like a towering building suddenly having one of its most important supports removed. While it might not cause the entire building to collapse, it has certainly shaken its very foundation.

Moreover, Momer's cyberattacks are not so easy to fix.

Leaving aside the quiet and elegant BIOS virus in every computer motherboard BIOS, the fact that all applications and data on all computers are destroyed, along with backups, is enough to bring many industries to a complete standstill for a considerable period of time.

Upon truly understanding all of this, Gao Hai's face turned ashen. His attitude towards Mo Mo, which had initially softened slightly because Mo Mo had won the war and created a miracle, vanished instantly.

He pointed at Mo Mo's face, his fingers trembling, his forearm trembling, his whole body shaking so violently it was almost like a sieve, as if nothing more than this would be enough to show his anger.

"Are you trying to destroy the Chinese Empire?!"

Gao Hai finally voiced his accusations, which relieved him; at least the feeling of being suppressed by Mo Mo was gone.

"Even though you did it to win the war in Luoyang, you've gone too far! The entire Chinese Empire has been thrown into chaos. Didn't you consider that without electricity, there's no water, no transportation, and no supplies? Without all of these, what are the people in the city supposed to eat and drink? Are they just supposed to wait to die?"

"Furthermore, with the entire Chinese Empire at a standstill, Luoyang is safe, but what about the surrounding powers? Will Britannia and the EU let this opportunity pass? And how could those restless members of the Chinese Federation let this chance for independence slip by!"

"Even if the two points above were necessary to win this war, then Mo Mo, I ask you, what was the purpose of attacking all the banks in the Chinese Empire and erasing all the data!"

"In an instant, all the money of the Chinese Empire has vanished, completely disappeared. The wealth accumulated by the Chinese Empire over countless years has also vanished. Do you intend to set the Chinese Empire back three hundred years?"

This time, Gao Hai was truly righteous and fearless, even displaying some of the demeanor of a renowned minister throughout history. Moreover, this time, Gao Hai wasn't actually targeting Mo Mo; he was genuinely shocked and furious. In his view, wouldn't Mo Mo's actions bring down the entire Chinese Empire?

If it weren't for Mo Mo's previous achievements, Gao Hai might have really suspected that Mo Mo was deliberately playing them and trying to turn the Chinese Empire into ruins.

The old emperor's expression was also somewhat gloomy. He looked at Mo Mo, thought for a few seconds, and said, "Mo Mo, can you give me an explanation?"
