No Money to Build a Mech? No Worries, I Will Help

"Shocking! Rising superstar Zhou Chuchu was spotted having a secret meeting with a suspected scammer at a villa. Is this true or not? We hope the two goddesses can respond." In just a few minutes, this super eye-catching hot topic quickly pushed aside other trending topics and made its way to the top ten headlines, causing a heated discussion among netizens. Netizens speculated about what kind of scumbag could deceive two A-list national goddesses, not only swindling their fortunes but also exposing their secret meetings. Zhou Chuchu: Xiao Yuyao, I'm sorry. I don't have much money left. This is all I can give you. I hope you won't be disappointed. Yang Mimi: You really are a gold digger. You spent all the money from my last pay so quickly. Well, all my money is here. Take it. Suddenly, Xiao Yuyao had a thought, and a cold light flashed. A dark-colored hilt appeared in his hand, with a faint blue light shining at the center of the hilt, seemingly an energy cube for storing power. Buzz. The hilt made a buzzing sound, and a bright white energy beam formed at the front end, condensing into a sword-like shape under everyone's gaze. The unstable slight fluctuations of the beam quickly stabilized, forming a unique lightsaber with a freely adjustable form. It was about one meter long with a 10-centimeter-wide blade of light, and its power was yet to be determined. Xiao Yuyao tilted his head to look at the lightsaber, something extremely cool that only appeared in science fiction movies and was possessed by the protagonist. He lightly swung it, a smirk appearing on his lips. A cold voice resounded from above: "Energy storage remaining: 99%. Stability: 80%."

Xiao Yuyao happily waved his fused materials to the camera.

"These fillings are used to help when there's a fire.

"Once it is shot out, it will release a special substance to extinguish the fire. Moreover, it can shoot dozens of bullets at a time.

"As long as there are enough bullets, you'll be able to put out even the biggest of fires. It can automatically locate wildfires and stop them from getting any bigger."

The fans did not expect Xiao Yuyao to actually make such a thing.

After listening to Xiao Yuyao's description, they found it hard to believe that those bullets could put out wildfires.

Was he joking?

Xiao Yuyao seemed to read the doubts of his fans and couldn't help but say, "There's not enough time for me to complete it right now. Otherwise, I would have shown you an example of how it's done."

[Who cares about the fire? I want to know if it's true that you're looking for an assistant. Are you still looking for one?]

[What are the requirements to fill that role?]

Xiao Yuyao shook his head slightly when he saw this.

He was indeed looking for an assistant, but he would not choose to look for them in the livestream room now.

Who knew what these people were up to?

He had only used the livestream room to advertise the job. He would only want to recruit those that were reliable and had a stunning background.

Therefore, many researchers crossed their fingers and submitted their application forms.

It wouldn't be a problem to find an assistant. In any case, there were many talented people in the research industry. They were all highly educated and had worked in the research institute for so long. Many of them were experienced and would definitely satisfy all of Xiao Yuyao's requests.

He had already given them his requirements to fulfill the role. He wanted a woman. Her comprehensive ability had to be strong. In addition, her personality must be firm but not too overpowering.

With these prerequisites, many of the applicants were rejected.

Xiao Yuyao didn't know that all the research institutes were scrambling to look for the right candidates for him.

After a few more days of perfecting the mecha, he could finally show his fans the final product. 

At this moment, he pushed the mecha outside and said to the audience.

"After thinking about it for a long time, I'll show you the use of this thing.

"Everyone can see that there are a total of twelve barrels, which can be fired continuously.

"It can reach a firing rate of about a hundred shots per second, enough to cover a fire field of a thousand square meters.

"The reloading is automatic so you won't have to worry about that. As long as you give the order, it will complete it without reservation."

Xiao Yuyao placed some oil barrels far away and threw a Molotov at them.

This made the fans excited. They wanted to see if that mecha could really put out the fire.

Suddenly, an extremely terrifying explosion suddenly cut off the audio.

For a moment, thick smoke billowed, and the ground shook, catching everyone off guard.

They all suspected that Xiao Yuyao had caused too much trouble.

The reason for the change was finally discovered as the camera angle changed.

There were dozens of oil barrels next to the oil barrel. He did not take protective measures, so they leaked into the surrounding area and stuck together. Thus causing a huge explosion.

Xiao Yuyao's eyes widened. It was a good thing no one was around. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Still, the final result was that all the oil barrels exploded and that there was gasoline everywhere.

The fire spread and ferociously burned everything in its sight.

The fans in the livestream room started to panic.

[What are you waiting for, Xiao Yuyao? Hurry up and escape!]

[There might be more explosions soon! You're going to die if you don't leave now!]

Some fans were also frantically calling the fire department, urging them to get to Xiao Yuyao as soon as possible.

After all, they knew that there were dozens of oil barrels. If they exploded, Xiao Yuyao's place would probably be destroyed.

However, Xiao Yuyao was not worried at all. Instead, he smiled because this fire was smaller than he hoped for.

It could not fully display the mecha's characteristics.

He didn't expect the oil barrel to be so considerate and create such a large fire area for him.

In a few seconds, the fire covered an area of more than 200 meters, almost burning the entrance.

If he doesn't stop it now, it is very likely that it will spread to the nearby forest.

At this moment, the flames soared into the sky, creating mirages. Thick smoke billowed and it covered half the sky in gray.

Across the livestream room, the audience could feel the horror of the sea of fire.

Xiao Yuyao did not hesitate too much and immediately launched the Gatling gun.

He immediately activated it and shot out one load after another.

It exploded in the sky above the sea of fire. 

When white powder fell, the fire was controlled and no longer spread to the nearby forest.

Xiao Yuyao controlled his gun to fire out one load after another.

In just ten seconds, the fire was extinguished.

The fans in the livestream room were so shocked that their mouths were left hanging. They really did not expect it to be so effective.

There was no need to do anything at all. It was all done by the mecha.

What he needed to do was to control the direction of the shots. He didn't even care too much about the accuracy because the mecha would automatically aim at the biggest pile of fire.

The fire department was extremely excited because Xiao Yuyao had said that this thing was going to be given to them.

Xiao Yuyao felt relief when the fire was successfully put out, "I told you that I would succeed. Not bad, right? Don't worry, I will keep my promise and give it to the fire department."

It didn't take long. Two hours later, people from the fire department came and took the mecha away.

At the same time, he found an assistant while waiting for them to bring the mecha away.

Although she did not have much work experience and was just an intern at a school, he wanted to turn her into his right-hand man through his own training.

This way, she would be more loyal to him. If he were to choose those with work experience or others, it was inevitable that they might end up going against him.

It would be troublesome if someone was a mole from foreign countries. 

Therefore, he chose someone that was somewhat easily influenced.

This kind of person can be easily developed into his confidant.
