When the applause subsided, Luzern continued to read, "The second rule, Ming Li and his wife decided to pass the first relic to their eldest son. Please come to the stage!"
Ming Yuan walked up with steady steps. On the other side, a guard carefully carried a tray over. On the tray, there was a stack of colorful crystal cards with various marks. Ding Meng might not recognize the marks, but the Steel Mane people knew that it was the official mark of the imperial family that had been authenticated by the empire, unanimously agreed by the elders, and engraved by the royal family.
And these crystal cards were the land deeds, houses, town rolls, cultivation resources, and authorization passes for entering and exiting various important places left by the Ming Li couple. It seemed that the couple had high expectations for their eldest son when they were alive. They hoped that Ming Yuan could go further in his career in the empire.
This could be seen from Ming Jian and Ming Xue's envious eyes.
When Ming Yuan returned to his seat, Luzern lowered his head and read, "The third rule, Ming Li and his wife decided to pass the second relic to their second son. Please come to the stage!"
Ming Jian was filled with anticipation as he stepped onto the stage. In the end, four guards came up to him. The four of them struggled to lift a huge golden double-bladed battle axe as they walked over.
Ding Meng glanced at it. This axe was actually of a higher level than his Illusionary Flower, Water, and Moon. It had a lot of Krypton and platinum added to it. Although it was not very flexible and did not have a transformation device, this thing was very powerful. The metallurgy technology of the Steel Mane Empire was really powerful.
This axe was many times more expensive than the hundreds of millions that Ming Li and his wife had donated. It was at least thousands of times more expensive. It seemed that the couple had left the best things for their children. He had underestimated the Steel Mane Empire. Who said that they were poor? They were f * cking invisible tycoons.
However, Ming Jian didn't know what was good for him. Perhaps everyone present didn't know what was good for him. Ming Jian took the heavy axe with a dejected expression. The others looked at him with a trace of sympathy. His eldest son received so many resources, but his second son only received an axe. Wasn't this a bit unfair?
Ding Meng sighed softly. What a pity for parents in the world. He somewhat understood the couple's intentions. This Ming Jian should be more talented in the martial way, but his intelligence and vision were not much. Therefore, they had specially left a divine weapon for him, hoping that he would focus on cultivating his martial skills. Once his martial skills were strong, he would also be a powerful expert in his own right.
Luzern said, "Fourth, Ming Li and his wife have decided to pass on the third legacy to their eldest daughter. Please come to the stage!"
Ming Xue swayed her hips as she walked onto the stage. In the eyes of the Iron Mane Men, she was quite flirtatious. However, in Ding Meng's eyes, she was indescribably weird.
However, this time, there were no guards carrying the relics onto the stage. Luzern continued, "After reaching an agreement with the Imperial Family, Ming Xue is appointed as the Commissioner of the Operations Department. In addition, the Imperial Residence will be reserved and the wealth of 200,000 Star Coins will be given as living expenses."
Ming Xue was dumbfounded. How could this be called a legacy?
Just now, everyone looked at Ming Jian with some sympathy, but now, they were looking at her with ridicule. This legacy was as good as not having it. Everyone in the Imperial Family knew that Ming Xue liked to dress up and fool around. The galactic fashion she was wearing, which was bought at a high price from the Holy Grail Federation, was worth more than 200,000 Star Coins. Was this the reason why Ming Li and his wife were so disappointed in their eldest daughter?
Definitely not!
Ding Meng thought to himself. The old couple must know that their eldest daughter was a prodigal, so they hoped that she would obediently work in the Imperial Family's key department and let their eldest son, Ming Yuan, take care of her. This could also temper her temper.
"Fifth, Ming Li and his wife have decided to pass on the fourth legacy, which is also the last legacy, to their fourth son. Please come to the stage!"
Little White immediately ran up. Ding Meng was also looking forward to it. The couple had abandoned Little White for many years. This time, they suddenly called Little White back. What did they leave for Little White?
The guard came up with a tray again. On the tray was a delicate female handbag. This was not a product of the Steel Mane Empire, but an anti-gravity bag from the Holy Grail Federation.
Little White immediately put it on his waist happily. Looking at his happy face, he felt that he had gotten a treasure.
This thing was indeed a treasure for Little White. Who knew how many things could be put into it at one time.
However, the palace was filled with laughter. Most of them were laughing mockingly. Everyone knew that this illegitimate son was playing in the concentration camp. This bag was quite suitable for him, as it was convenient for him to carry junk.
A piece of trash was indeed a piece of trash. An anti-gravity bag was enough to make him so happy.
"Silence!" Luzern's face darkened. Everyone did not dare to laugh anymore.
Little White happily returned to Ding Meng's side. Ding Meng thought that the old man would not call Little White back just to leave him a simple handbag.
Other people might not recognize this handbag, but Ding Meng had seen it before. The all-purpose bag on Eisendale's waist was exactly the same as Little White's handbag. However, Little White's was a mini version. There must be something special about it.
The priest finally said, "The farewell ceremony is now over!"
Soon, the crowd was bustling with noise. Most people began to leave the palace.
The four siblings of the Ming family did not leave because Luzern had already come down. He looked at the four of them thoughtfully and said, "Young ones, although the two lords have left, I hope that you will inherit their last wishes and serve the Empire well."
Ming Yuan's attitude was very respectful. "I will remember your teachings, sir!"
"Yes!"
Luzern nodded. He was quite satisfied with the eldest son of the Ming family. This person was calm and collected. He was a talent that could be molded.
Ming Jian lowered his head and pondered. No one knew what he was thinking. However, Ming Xue asked, "Sir Luzern, didn't father and mother leave anything else for me?"
Luzern's face immediately sank. "You'd better behave yourself and learn from your big brother. If anything happens again, no one will plead for leniency this time. You will also be punished by the royal family."
Ming Xue looked indifferent. It seemed that she was used to it.
Only then did Luzern look at Xiao Bai with sympathy in his eyes: "Fourth Highness, we know that you have been wandering outside for a long time. You can stay in the Imperial City for the next few days as a guest. In the future, wherever you want to go, we can send you there."
Little White's face was still adorable, but Ding Meng's heart sank. What Lord Luzern said actually had two hidden meanings. First, the Steel Mane Empire still didn't recognize Little White as a member of the royal family. Second, Little White could only stay for a short time and would still be sent away in the future.
However, Little White did not care. He was used to living a hard life. As long as he could eat and sleep well, he would be satisfied.
Luzern turned his head and looked at Ding Meng. "Your Highness' friend, welcome to the Empire of Steel Mane. I hope you can abide by the relevant rules of our country."
Ding Meng said indifferently, "Thank you!"
After Luzern left, the three siblings of the Ming family gathered together to discuss. However, no one came to greet their fourth brother. It seemed that they did not treat Little White as a family member.
Zhan Feng immediately lowered his head and said, "Your Highness, Sir Ding, to be safe, it's better not to stay near the Empire of Steel Mane or go to the hotels in the city. I suggest you stay at the Military Governor's Mansion temporarily."
The Military Governor was a very famous general in the Iron Mane Race. He was similar to the frontline commander of the human race. Zhan Feng was the adopted son of the Military Governor. According to the information provided by Zhan Feng, Ming Li and her husband had a good personal relationship with the Military Governor. The two families also had a close relationship. Therefore, it was safest for Little White to stay at the Military Governor's Mansion after he returned.
The Military Governor's Mansion was also far away from the city. It was built in the wilderness on the outskirts of the city. From the outside, it looked like a two-story villa in the human world. Of course, it was still black because it was made of metal.
Ding Meng suddenly felt that the black houses in the Iron Mane Nation were actually quite good because the building materials were mixed with many kinds of metal materials, which played a very good role in shielding signal fluctuations. Especially the radar in the sky. Without an extremely advanced reconnaissance system, it would be difficult to find the specific situation on the ground. From the perspective of a large-scale war, the cities and towns of the Iron Mane Nation were not easy to be attacked by air.
When Ding Meng and his party arrived, the Military Governor actually personally greeted them at the gate of the villa, which surprised Ding Meng.
This was an old man wearing a human robe. He looked very friendly, but the Military Governor was also very surprised. He carefully looked at Ding Meng and said, "Fourth Highness's human friend, you are very special!"
Ding Meng knew that he could not hide from this level of expert. Even if the other party could not see through him, he would be able to find some clues.
Ding Meng smiled and said, "I met Little White in the concentration camp. At that time, I was sold to Akashic Sodium by human traffickers."
"Then please come in and have a seat!"
Warsky made an inviting gesture. There must be a deeper reason why someone like Ding Meng was sold as a slave. He was very polite and did not ask.
The layout of the living room on the first floor was not much different from the human world. It was just that it did not have a lot of AI systems. As soon as they sat down, the servants brought up many exquisite snacks.
Little White immediately picked up a plate of various sizes and started munching. Ding Meng could only lower his eyelids. These snacks were made of all kinds of strange metals. Some were like scones, some were like glutinous rice balls, and some were like pig trotters. Ding Meng even saw a bowl of metal noodles. The soup seemed to be made of liquid metal. No matter what they looked like, they did not look like metal.
However, to the Steel Mane people, these ingredients were only available to the nobles in the Empire.
Looking at Whitey wolfing down the food, the Warsky Warlord had a kind smile on his face. It was as if he was looking at his own grandson, but there was also a trace of sympathy in his eyes. He clearly knew what kind of bitter life the people in the concentration camp had to live.
"Did you name yourself, Little White?" Warsky asked.
Little White immediately looked at Ding Meng and said, "Big Brother Ding Meng gave me the name. At first, I didn't think it sounded good, but later, I found it quite nice."
Ding Meng said, "Sir Military Governor, you seem to know Little White, right?"
Warsky nodded and murmured with a sigh, "Yes, on the day Little White was born, I was at the Medical Palace in the Imperial City. Sir Ming and I were anxiously waiting outside the ward."
"Oh?"
Ding Meng was a little surprised. There was such a thing? Did that mean that Warsky and Ming Li had watched Little White's birth?
