Chapter 319 - A Monster, Through and Through (1/2)
“Too light.” Qin Fen shook his head and sighed again and again. He could even use Thunderstorm, which weighed one-ton, with just one hand. And this heavy-lead suit only weighed five hundred kilograms. It was no different than fooling a child.
The receptionist peeked a glance at the heavy-lead suit beside her. That was but a five hundred kg suit! She tentatively asked again, “Sir, are you sure?”
“Do you have anything heavier? Do you have it or not?”
Qin Fen did not hide the disappointment on his face.* It seems we can’t believe everything that’s advertised! They said they have all the facilities available. It’s too much exaggerated!*
As a receptionist, she acutely noticed the dissatisfaction written on Qin Fen’s face. This time the dissatisfaction clearly meant that he wanted to leave, which was tantamount to losing a big customer.
“Yes, yes, we have it. Sir, please wait a minute.” Picking up the walkie-talkie from her waist, the receptionist bolted out of the room and hastily reported, “Manager, I’ve received a lieutenant colonel who appears to be less than twenty years old…”
“What? Less than twenty years old? Are you sure?”
Listening to the surprised reply of the manager, the receptionist’s heart, which had been shocked by Qin Fen, finally felt balanced. This time, she wasn’t the one who was stunned by that young monster.
“He should be,” the receptionist answered the manager in an earnest manner. “Manager, I know my duties. I have served with the best of my abilities. But… but he has a strange request. He wanted heavy-lead suits. Of course, I took him to the storage but he said that these suits are too light. That’s right! He said that they were too light while standing in front of the five hundred kg heavy-lead suits.”
The walkie-talkie sunk into silence. As the manager of an upscale fitness club, he had seen all kinds of things in his life. However, he had never encountered things like this before.
Although a five hundred heavy-lead suit wasn’t the heaviest in the market, very few people needed heavy-lead suits of this level, apart from the people who practiced paleo martial arts like Sumeru Power, Dragon Elephant Prajna Art, Strength of Nine Oxes and Two Tigers, or Vigorous Divine Art neo martial arts.
Is that young scion practicing Sumeru Power, Dragon Elephant Prajna Art, Strength of Nine Oxes and Two Tigers, or Vigorous Divine Art? Although these secret arts can’t necessarily be bought with money, it does not mean that there aren’t young scions who like practicing these!
The manager rubbed his forehead. Has the trend really changed now? Aren’t all young scions fond of practicing Yijin Sutra, Eight Wild and Six Fit Supremacy Art, Arhat Devil Suppressing Art, Northern Abyss Divine Art, and neo martial arts like Solar Art, Yin and Yang Magnetic Art, Pluto Vortex Art and so on?
“Wait a minute, I will serve this man myself! Don’t worry, if I am successful in landing him, the commission and the credit is all yours.”
Having dropped these words, the manager quickly left his comfortable office. Rhythmic taps of his speedy footsteps resounded throughout the quite hallway.
A less than twenty years old lieutenant colonel!? The manager’s eyes flickered with suspicion. Is he the son of His Excellency, the President? A less than twenty years old lieutenant colonel! Maybe he is the grandson of Martial God Song!? No! Martial God Song doesn’t have a grandson! Hmm, maybe he is the grandson-in-law of Martial God Song?
A sarcastic look appeared on the manager’s face. As if! The Martial God Song’s granddaughter isn’t married.
Bored, Qin Fen inspected the facilities in the room. A five hundred kilogram heavy-lead suit is somewhat disappointing, I hope they won’t continue to disappoint me.
Tap… tap… tap…
Qin Fen raised his eyebrow as he looked at the manager who just walked in; a man in his early thirties and wearing a well-ironed suit. It coupled with his well-combed hair, giving the feeling of an elite businessman. Hung on his chest was a tag with “Manager” written on it.
“Hello, sir, I am the manager here, surnamed Hua. How can I help you?”
Manager Hua made a series of succinct opening remarks as he peeked a glance at the accouterments on Qin Fen’s shoulders and collar. The accouterments are indeed of lieutenant colonel, and not some fakes bought off the streets. Furthermore, there is a thick air of a soldier that cannot be faked.
“I need heavy-lead suits.” Qin Fen looked at the suits hanging on the rack beside him and shook his head again. “These are too light.”
The receptionist peeked a glance at the manager. Her bright eyes seemed to be saying, See! I was right, wasn’t I?
Manager Hua became silence for a moment. At first, he believed some fake lieutenant colonel had come to make trouble; he didn’t expect that such young lieutenant colonel had actually come.
“Sir, you need a multi-layer heavy-lead suit.” Manager Hua maintained a smile. “Although we don’t have it at the moment, we can immediately present to you the heavy-lead suit you need in the shortest time. Please believe us, we are the best fitness club in Shengjing. Our service is the best and our ability is also the strongest.”
“A thousand seven hundred and fifty kg suit plus wristbands and ankle weights, weighing a total of two thousand kg.” Qin Fen lightly nodded. “These should be about right.”
A total of two thousand kg!? The receptionist and the manager clucked their tongues. This man who looks so robust is actually hiding such terrifying strength? Is he really human? He is no different than a small-scale mobile armor!?
Looking at their surprised look, Qin Fen decided to not tell them that he was planning to enter the gravity chamber wearing these.
“I understand! Please, wait a minute.”
Manager Hua proved himself to be a young elite businessman. He hastily called the nearby manufacturers. This type of heavy-lead suit was almost the heaviest suit on the market today. Generally, it was made to show their strength to the consumers. Even though it was a super-heavy lead suit, it could also be made very light and thin.
“Sir, can you please wait fifteen minutes?” Manager Hua smiled to Qin Fen, secretly wondering what the origin of this kid was. We should flatter such a young lieutenant colonel. He might become an important figure in the army someday. In the future, if we expand our business into other sectors, we can also supply military auxiliary equipment. That’s some easy money.
