Richest Man: Divine-Grade Reconstruct System
Chapter 1110 - 1066:
That’s precisely why the old man immediately thought it was something from the heavens, as today’s craftsmanship indeed can’t produce such an item.
After setting the table, Lin Yi waved his palm again, and suddenly, two steaming dishes and two large bowls of rice appeared in front of them.
This scene frightened the old man even more, but upon seeing the steaming rice and the unprecedented dishes, his stomach grumbled, and he couldn’t help but swallow hard. The cold and hungry environment was truly too much for him to bear.
Now, seeing this bowl of white rice, his first thought was to rush over, grab it, and shove it into his mouth.
But with Lin Yi right in front of him, he dared not make any move, just stared straight at Lin Yi, then glanced at the dishes again, swallowing hard once more.
Lin Yi, observing the scene, realized the old man must be extremely hungry, and so he gestured to the old man and said:
"Eat, each of us gets a dish and a bowl of rice. If that’s not enough, just let me know."
Upon hearing Lin Yi’s words, the old man no longer hesitated. He rushed over, grabbed the large bowl, and began devouring the rice, only to find it was so hot that he had to slurp it up right away.
The old man never expected that something conjured out of thin air would be steaming hot, which made his eyes flash with even more fear. But despite the heat, he was very hungry, so he devoured the rice without hesitation.
Seeing this, Lin Yi couldn’t help but swallow hard himself, watching the old man’s ravenous demeanor, anyone would think the rice was extraordinarily delicious.
Thus, Lin Yi slowly picked up his rice and began to eat, then pointed at the dishes in front of him, saying to the old man:
"Don’t just eat rice; there’s also some dishes here, they’re quite good. Try them out; I brought them from the sky, and no earthly fare can mimic this taste."
One sentence made the old man draw a sharp breath; just as he had guessed, these were indeed foods from the sky.
This revelation made him excited, and upon hearing Lin Yi’s words, he quickly reached over and grabbed some fish-flavored pork.
With one taste of the fish-flavored pork, the old man widened his eyes in disbelief.
Watching this, Lin Yi was confused, wondering what was with the expression? Was there something wrong with the dish?
Just then, he heard the old man mumbling, "Delicious, incredibly delicious. What is this? How can it be so delicious? This entire life feels wasted, eating nothing but dog food."
While eating and muttering, Lin Yi couldn’t help but pull his own dish closer, afraid the old man would finish and start grabbing his portion.
Just like that, a large bowl of rice and a big plate of dishes were quickly devoured by the old man.
There was no denying his great appetite; even after finishing a bowl of rice, he gazed longingly at Lin Yi’s untouched rice and the half-eaten dish with yearning eyes. Helplessly, Lin Yi had to wave his hand again, providing another bowl of rice and plate of dishes.
The old man was naturally overjoyed, hurriedly bowing in gratitude to Lin Yi before finishing off the soup, satisfiedly patting his belly, letting out a contented burp, leaving Lin Yi speechless.
Who could imagine the man was once a national general, now no different from a street beggar?
With a full stomach, Lin Yi looked at the old man and said:
"Now that you’re full, do you want to try flying again? If you do, put on these clothes, and I’ll take you flying.
I should tell you that not just anyone can experience this flying."
The old man hesitated upon hearing this; as Lin Yi said, it’s a privilege few enjoy. Even emperors of various nations haven’t flown. Though he desired it, he realized his body couldn’t handle it.
The feeling was unforgettable, something he couldn’t ignore all his life.
While he wanted to, he feared his frail body couldn’t withstand the journey, so with tough resolve, he told Lin Yi:
"Your Majesty, I fear my body truly can’t handle the immortal flying sensation, unforgettable as it is, yet it can’t endure the icy coldness; a flight would be risking my old life."
Hearing this and seeing the old man’s fearful expression, Lin Yi knew the trial was over.
Thus, Lin Yi nodded to the old man and said:
"Alright then.
If your body can’t handle it, we won’t do that.
Although we won’t fly there, I still need to take you flying out of the city.
Doing things in the city easily attracts attention.
Come on, put this on and hook that on."
Saying this, Lin Yi pointed at the clothes and a set of safety straps.
The old man did as instructed, layering the clothes on, carefully binding the safety straps, then handing the clip to Lin Yi.
Lin Yi waved his hand, and the Iron Man Armor appeared.
Attaching the hook to himself, he prepared to fly, when the old man hurriedly spoke:
"Your Majesty, we left those things back there."
Glancing at where the old man’s voice directed him, Lin Yi saw the square table with empty bowls and plates.
With a helpless smile, Lin Yi waved his hand, and under the old man’s gaze, the items vanished instantly.
Despite being somewhat accustomed to Lin Yi’s abilities, the old man still swallowed hard; such immortal techniques were truly mysterious.
Seeing Lin Yi, who stored the items into the System Space, then stomped his foot, the Iron Man Armor shot up into the air, while the old man once more experienced lifting off.
His entire self soared into the air at incredible speed, leaving him semi-conscious once again.
Still, he recovered quickly, this time able to open his eyes and enjoy the scenes below, knowing flying chances would be rare.
It seemed, after today, he’d never experience such feelings again.
Thus, he cherished the flying moments.
Even thought of sharing his flight experience, thinking it would make others envious.
