The Strongest Man in the Universe

The Strongest Man in the Universe
Chapter 361



The news that Mia went looking for David early in the morning reached Fergus' ears.


Prangs!


Fergus instantly smashed the cup in his hand.


“David really forced his luck. How dare he touch my woman? Does he want to die?" Fergus roars.


He had long been eyeing Mia and had already considered Mia as his own. Now, this bastard who appeared out of nowhere would steal from him?


Plus, he was the one who indirectly caused this. How could he not feel angry?


If he had not arranged for the space pirates to intercept Mia, how could David have had a chance to save her?


The two would not even get a chance to get to know each other at all.


“Mr Fergus, please calm down. Until we figure out who David is, we have to hold back. Now is the most critical moment for you to compete for the position of head of the younger generation in the Callisto family. Don't get into an accident." Heathcliffe.


“Heathcliffe, what identity do you think David has? Burke was always stubborn and arrogant, so not many people could make him hold back in public.”


"The possibility that he was someone who was cultivated by a certain powerful group in secret was too great. Mr. Fergus, you can go to Burke to find out. He should know something about this.”


Fergus thinks for a moment and decides to listen to Heathliffe's advice and goes to Burke. He is in a critical moment now. Fergus still knows how to prioritize between women and become the head of the Callisto family's younger generation.


The most important thing for him now was to get the position of head of the younger generation of the Callisto family. After he married the daughter of the minister of the Milky Way Empire, his chances of success would be much greater with the support of the female side of the family.


Fergus takes Heathcliffe to Burke's castle and finds Burke.


”I wonder why you're looking for me, Master Fergus?” burke said as he hugged a beautiful and charming woman in each arm.


"Burke, I'm not going to beat around with you. Who's David? Please tell me!" jackson said straight to the point.


“How can I know? This is the first time I've met this guy named David. If you want to know David's identity, you have to ask Mia. Why did you come here?”


"Burke, a straightforward person doesn't use innuendo. Everyone knows your temperament. If you're being lenient towards David in front of so many people, you must know something, so don't hide it anymore."


"Mr Fergus, you misunderstood. I don't know shit. Instead, I just did it for Mia's sake. Besides, I don't want Mia to hate me. David saved his life. If I fight with that David, Mia will definitely get involved. Tell me, what should I do? I told everyone that Fairy Dance would dance at my banquet in a few days. I didn't want to be the laughingstock of the entire galaxy, so I held it off for a while.” explains Burke.


Of course, he would not tell Fergus the truth. He even hoped that the two of them would fight because of Mia so that he could see who was stronger. It would definitely be an interesting sight to see.


Fergus did not speak. Instead, he stared at Burke for a long while. He wanted to assess whether Burke was telling the truth.


“A bad boy who suddenly appears dares to disrespect you, Burke Lutgen, and he even did it on your Boundless Planet. Can you really withhold this complaint?" ask Fergus.


“How is that possible? I'm just doing it for now. After the banquet, I will show the child the consequences of offending me. But, you also seem to be at odds with him, right? Everyone knows you like Mia, so David slapped your face by doing this.” asked Burke.


“Because you know that David is our common enemy, why don't we cooperate?" ask Fergus.


“No! You said David was a bad boy who appeared out of nowhere. If others knew you were acting against someone like this and even asked for my help, wouldn't I look so bad? If you can bear this and do nothing to her, I will naturally take action against her after the banquet.” Burke refused.


He said this was not because he wanted to take action against David. Instead, he wants Fergus to think that he will do something as long as Fergus stays. Burke knew that while he looked like a noble, Fergus was actually narrow-minded.


The closer David and Mia get, the more angry Fergus gets, and the more he wants to tear David apart. Fergus had long considered Mia his own, and he would not take it anymore. Burke is setting a trap for Fergus to jump over. Burke was at ease when he thought that he would soon be able to see the beautiful scenery firsthand.


He glanced at the old man behind Fergus. The old man who followed Fergus this entire time was the most feared existence he knew of.


"Burke, do you really not want to cooperate with me?”


“Fergus, since when did you become so timid? If you really don't dare to act, just wait and see. I will make sure that the boy will never leave Planet Boundless.”


Afterwards, Fergus leaves with Heathcliffe. In the end, he didn't get the answer he wanted from Burke. He continues to feel that Burke is prompting him to take action against David. But, given the actual situation, what Burke said also fit the logic.


Five days passed in the blink of an eye. David deals with the Meteor Chamber every night. While spending the money to buy some hidden information about the Milky Way, he also gained a lot of luxurious points. But, as fewer questions were asked, the luxury points David could earn were also reduced.


Every day, Mia still went to David's place and stayed for half a day. Even if Fergus invites Mia to meet, he will refuse and go to David. This leaves Fergus increasingly unable to control his emotions, and he nearly explodes at any moment.


In the courtyard where David lived.


"Mr David, I'm leaving first. You should have a good rest, goodbye!" Mia said goodbye.


"Goodbye, Mia!" david said politely.


After Mia leaves, David opens the system panel.

Luxury Points: 1,082 ]


After working hard and not sleeping for days, David finally got 1,082 luxury points. It also meant that he had spent nearly 200 billion to purchase information from the Meteor Chamber. This was a huge number, so he was now a high-level VIP in the Meteor Chamber.


David was sitting on the bed with his eyes closed, he was preparing himself.


Furthermore, his luxury points would enter a period of slow growth. He would not buy information from the Meteor Chamber anymore. First, he would spend his luxurious points and break through the Mid-Celestial Rank.


He got a pretty good result on the first two days, but on the last day, he only got dozens of fancy points. David could not find anything to ask anymore. Many questions only cost a hundred thousand or a million Galaxy Dollars.


Hence, he needed to ask over a hundred questions to earn a single point. That was a waste of too much time. But, it was good enough that he got over 1000 points just by understanding more about the main forces popular in the Milky Way. At least, this temporarily alleviated David's urgent needs.


With 1,082 luxurious points, he could break through the Mid-Celestial Rank and reach the Peak Celestial Rank. Although he still could not fight Grandmaster Tuffin, he was already extremely strong.


Other than Grandmaster Tuffin, David could already exterminate the entire Tuffin family. Therefore, he did not hesitate anymore and immediately clicked the (+) button behind Body.


A window appeared.


Two hours later, David reopened the system panel.

Luxury Points: 82 ]


He only had 82 luxurious points now, and his combat strength had reached Celestial Rank Beginners. David stood up to move his body.


Krak Krak Krak!


His knuckles cracked violently due to that movement. His strength had increased again, and had reached an incredible level. David even felt like he could destroy the Boundless Planet with a stomp of his foot.


It's an amazing feeling, but it's not enough. This was because he knew from the Meteor Chamber that Grandmaster Tuffin was one of the oldest giants in the Milky Way.


His strength had reached Infinity Rank many years ago. If David wanted to compete with him, his combat power would at least have to reach the entry-level Infinity Rank.it would be 1 to 2 trillion galaxies.


'I have to keep working hard.' David thought sadly.


When David breaks through to another realm, Burke's communication device rings. He took it out to see. Then, he immediately chased away the women around him before he answered him. A tall and well-built middle-aged man appeared in front of Burke.


“Dad!" Burke greeted with respect.


At this moment, he was no longer the ruthless and hot-tempered Lord Burke. Instead, he was a child ready to accept his punishment.


This middle-aged man looks the same as Burke. That's Burke's father, Ramos. He was also an important figure in the military of the Milky Way Empire, and he was already a Celestial Ranker.


"Burke, I heard you invited a friend, and you're going to have a banquet at Boundless Planet to celebrate your breakthrough" Ramos said calmly.


“Yes, Dad!" Burke answered respectfully.


He wondered why someone like his father would suddenly care about such a trivial matter.


"Good job! If you can break through the Cosmos Rank before you turn two hundred, then there is still hope for you to go further in the future. You cannot be complacent and always be strict with yourself.”


"Thank you for the compliment, Dad!" Burke answered excitedly.


He's very happy. One should know that Ramos has never praised Burke since childhood. This was because he had an older brother named Malachi.


Although the two were almost the same age, Malachi reached Cosmos Rank fifty years before Burke.


Now, Malachi had reached the Cosmos Rank Late Stage while Burke had just broken through to Cosmos Rank Beginners. It could be imagined how much pressure Burke had with such a brother continuously hanging over his head.


Ramos also appointed Malachi as his heir. He took Malachi with him and poured all his effort into him.


Burke's talent isn't bad, but unfortunately, he has a much stronger brother. Hence, Burke was naturally much weaker compared to him. Therefore, he was beaten and scolded by Ramos as a bad example since he was a child.


That was why, Burke decisively gave up his comfortable and prestigious way of life after joining the Milky Way imperial military and opted out to gain more experience.


That way, he can escape the shadow of his brother, Malachi, and the control of his father, Ramos. Because childhood was like that's why Burke is so violent now.


He used to work very hard just to get one compliment from his father, Ramos. However, in the end, he only got punches and cruel nagging from his father. As a result, his character gradually became crooked.


This time, even though the praise from Ramos came late after so many years, it still made Burke feel very excited.


“Burke, even though I was hard on you since you were a child, it was all for your own good, so that you could take on a destiny full of thorns. So I hope you can understand.” Ramos said with a sigh.


“I understand, Father.” replied Burke with his head bowed.


"Burke, you can't reveal any details about what I'm going to tell you next. Otherwise, the entire Lutgen family will be affected, or even destroyed" Ramos said slowly.


Burke shuddered. He looked at his father, his face full of shock and disbelief.


'What will destroy the Lutgen family?'


He doesn't believe. The Lutgen family was heavily involved in the military of the Milky Way Empire.


They had contributed to the Empire's military for generations, except maybe one or two direct descendants like him. Almost all direct descendants of the Lutgen family have joined the military. It was no exaggeration to say that as long as the Milky Way Empire did not fall, the Lutgen family would never be able to be exterminated.


Now, Ramos' father tells him that the Lutgen family is threatened with extermination. There is only one possibility for this situation. The Empire took action against them.


Burke. 'Could our family have rebelled? No way! That's impossible!'


The Milky Way Empire was an unparalleled Milky Way hegemon, so how did the Lutgen family, a family with such a background, have an idea like this?


Isn't it like a firefly competing with the moon to see who's brighter? The Milky Way Empire would turn its family into ashes just by sneezing.


Burke calmed himself slowly. He felt this was unrealistic. So, it would be better for her father to tell her than to guess by himself.


“Someone, come in here!" Burke roaring.


Immediately, two people entered from outside and knelt on the ground with one knee.


“Mr Burke!”


"Tell everyone to come out from around the palace. No one is allowed in. If anyone defies, kill them mercilessly.”


“Roger!”


After the two left the room, the people guarding the place instantly dispersed themselves. Soon, Burke was the only one left in that grand palace.
