Wanjie Hotel: Iron Man is not allowed to charge

Chapter 145 The Undying Handsome Guy (7K votes needed)
"Master Karin is so kind. And just like in the manga, he only made me quiet for a few seconds before giving me the Senzu Bean seeds and how to grow them."

Little Goku said with a grin, "Master Korin really liked the gift you gave me. She even asked when she could eat so many delicious fish again."

As a martial arts god who has lived for 800 years, Master Garin can directly read the thoughts of people whose strength is far inferior to his.

This mind-reading ability was used by Master Roshi against Namu backstage at the World Martial Arts Tournament, and by Goku when he arrived on Namek.

Wen Ming wasn't sure if this counted as reaching the pinnacle of martial arts, but anyone who could achieve this level was definitely someone who had reached an extremely high level of mastery in martial arts.

Wen Ming reached out and took the cloth bag and the book. He opened the bag and was overjoyed.

Inside, there lay a handful of grayish-white seeds, each the size of a grain of rice.

"I will ask each traveler to help collect fish from their respective universes again, so that Master Karin can once again taste fish with different flavors from different universes."

Wen Ming smiled and said, "Little Goku, with this, you can fight against villains like Piccolo, Saiyans, and Majin Buu with more confidence and boldness."

Later on, when the Senzu Beans ran out, these people were so miserable that they had to break a single Senzu Bean in half to eat it.

Even more so, when Goku used the Spirit Bomb to kill Majin Buu, his Super Saiyan 3 form was running out of energy, and he had to use one of Shenron's wishes to replenish it.

Although there was a plot-driven reason for the death, it also proved just how scarce Senzu Beans were in the later stages of the game.

Now that they have obtained the seeds and cultivation techniques for the Senzu Beans, Wen Ming wants to let Goku actually eat them like candy.

Bulma chuckled upon hearing this: "You're so clever, you actually thought of getting him fish from different universes."

"I just wanted to see if he could taste the difference between these fish."

Wen Ming said modestly, "You've read the comics, so you'll also think of this method to please him."

"Then we can't get fish from all the universes."

Bulma is growing to like Wenming more and more; he's not arrogant or cocky at all, much better than Yamcha and Vegeta.

Sigh, such a good man, why can't I have him all to myself?
Should I use this wish to have the dragon drive away Lara's scheming old ladies?
"Little Goku, after we finish eating the braised beef, I'll need you to make another trip. Malena has been targeted by evil people, and I need you to use your Flying Nimbus to help me get her, Qinghou, and T1000 to a place as quickly as possible."

Wenming handed the Senzu Bean seeds and planting instructions to Rebecca, then looked down at Goku.

Little Goku excitedly asked, "An evil person? Do you want me to help you defeat him?"

"No need, no need. Just help take Malena to the designated location. If I need your help, I'll let you know. Qinghou will also accompany you this time."

Upon hearing that there was no need for a battle, Little Goku immediately lost his spirits: "Then I'll take them away first, so I won't be late for dinner."

"Okay, you go ahead, I'll prepare some braised beef for you."

Wen Ming also felt that it would be better to let Xiao Wukong finish his work all at once before enjoying a proper meal, so he called Marlena and summoned Qinghou.

When Qinghou heard that she could go to other universes, she was so happy that she rushed towards Wenming to kiss him. However, she caught sight of Bulma staring at her out of the corner of her eye, so she stopped in her tracks and said excitedly, "Don't worry, boss, I promise to get the Super Soldier Serum back for you."

"Go ahead. Remember, like other time travelers, you can only stay in that universe for 3 days. It's best to come back in 2 days. Anyway, it will take some time before the perfect version of the Super Soldier Serum is ready."

All the time travelers visit each other's universes, but just like the rules in the metaverse, they can only stay in each other's universes for a maximum of three days before they must return.

Fortunately, these three days refer to the three days of the metaverse.

If there is a time difference, such as 1:2, then you can stay in the other's universe for 6 days.

Therefore, time travelers now generally use the time of the metaverse as the standard to avoid errors.

After instructing Qing, Wen Ming then instructed Malena: "After you go there, follow the original plan. First, contact Howard in that universe. If you can't reach him, then contact Dr. Erskine."

With Qinghou and T1000 protecting you this time, your safety shouldn't be a problem, but don't be careless. If you notice anything wrong, come back immediately. Safety first.

Malena's face was full of emotion and seriousness: "I will be careful this time."

"I believe you. I'm still waiting for you to come back and be my secretary."

Wenming stepped forward to hug her goodbye. After they left, Bulma walked over with a grin: "You're so clever. You got rid of that glutton Goku this way."

Wenming looked at Bulma with a puzzled expression.

What did you say
Bulma pouted, "Come on, you promised to feed me something delicious! This time, no one will try to take it from me."

……

The three-week-long summer street carnival has finally come to an end.

As the venue for the closing ceremony, Dison Park began to gather large crowds from noon onwards, and by 4 p.m., it was packed with people.

Everyone was craning their necks to watch the band perform on stage, singing loudly.

When Wen Ming stood in his office and looked out through the arched window, he couldn't find a single gap among the dense crowd of people.

Such a large-scale event naturally brought tremendous exposure to the Iron Hotel, and also caused both buildings to be fully booked.

Even the presidential suites are all fully booked.

Wen Ming was considering whether to pretend to be sick and skip the closing ceremony when a bright light suddenly appeared in the crowd, almost blinding him.

"This is... Lex?"

With such a shiny bald head, there's no one else but him.

"Qinghou..."

Wen Ming was about to ask Qing Hou to pick up Lex when he suddenly remembered that Qing Hou had just gone to the "Malèna" universe with Malèna, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

It seems that he has become accustomed to Qinghou appearing by his side at any time.

"I'll go by myself."

Wen Ming changed into casual clothes and, accompanied by Rebecca, went downstairs and squeezed into the huge crowd.

"what--"

Rebecca's small figure was jostled and pushed around in the crowd, and even though she was well-trained, she was still jostled and swayed.

"Come!"

Wen Ming stretched out his hand and pulled Rebecca to his front, then used both hands to create a space.

Rebecca immediately felt her breathing become easier, and her rosy cheeks looked especially adorable in the sunset: "Thank you, boss."

"I should be the one thanking you."

Wen Ming smiled and was about to hug her and walk forward when a few people in front of them were playing around. Suddenly, he stumbled backward and bumped into Rebecca, who was thrown into Wen Ming's arms.

Rebecca frantically tried to get up, but the space behind her was quickly taken up.

The medic was squeezed tightly into Wen Ming's arms, and her face flushed rapidly as she listened to his strong heartbeat.

Her mouth acted before her brain could process it: "Boss, it's too crowded, I can't breathe."

"What should I do?"

Wen Ming tried to push the others away, but there were too many people. As soon as he pushed one away, another would squeeze in.

"I need you to give me artificial respiration."

Rebecca hooked her hand down on Wenming's neck, then, like a fish just pulled ashore, quickly inhaled the oxygen.

Amidst the noisy crowd and the rousing band music, the two, like countless other couples embracing, quickly warmed up to each other.

They didn't know how much time had passed when a surprised voice interrupted them.

"Rebecca? Wen Ming? Is that you?"

Wen Ming and Rebecca looked up and saw Lex staring at them in surprise.

Wen Ming quickly straightened up: "Lex, I've been looking for you."

Lex looked at Rebecca's rosy cheeks and slightly disheveled clothes, and his expression turned somewhat unpleasant.

Are you looking for me?
I watched from the side for a full ten minutes!

This is my favorite employee at the Metaverse Iron Hotel!
Despite his anger, Lex still smiled and asked, "What do you want with me?"

"The product has been updated, are you interested?"

Wen Ming directly brought up the topic that most interested the other party, and Lex's eyes immediately lit up: "Of course, is there any technology involved this time?"

"Yes, I have a technology I can sell to you this time."

Looking at the other person's bald head, Wen Ming said with a smile, "You'll definitely be very interested in this technology."

Upon hearing that technology was available for purchase, Lex no longer cared about Rebecca and excitedly pushed his way in front of the two: "I'll clear the way."

Wen Ming chuckled and walked forward with Rebecca in his arms. Rebecca nestled in Wen Ming's embrace like a little bird, enjoying the moment.

The three of them walked and stopped for a full half hour before reaching the edge of the park. By then, it was already dark, but the crowd had become even more lively.

Amidst the darkness and noise, Wen Ming's right hand suddenly moved away from Rebecca's waist, swiftly reaching back to grab the wrist of a strong man behind her.

Rebecca reacted quickly. As Wen Ming reached out, she swiftly drew her pistol, but Wen Ming quickly gestured for her to put it away and then looked at the owner of the wrist.

"Who are you? Why did you kill Rebecca?"

The captured man had a white linen head covering with two holes cut out for his eyes.

Upon seeing himself being arrested, he immediately waved his other hand, intending to punch Wen Ming in the face.

"court death!"

Wen Ming suddenly exerted force with his right hand, and the man screamed and fell to his knees.

"Killer?"

Hearing the commotion behind him, Lex turned around and immediately saw Wen Ming subduing a 2-meter-tall strong man with just one hand.

He stared in astonishment at everything before him, finding it all unreal.

Having known him for so long, this was the first time he had realized that Wen Ming was so powerful.

The owner of this Metaverse Hotel seems to be getting more and more mysterious.

Could he be an alien too?
"Confess honestly, or I'll make you wish you were dead!"

Wen Ming moved closer to the other person and immediately smelled a foul stench emanating from them, as if they were a corpse that had been rotting in a river for many days. This stench made Wen Ming frown and quickly stand up.

What the hell is this?
Suddenly, a thought flashed through Wen Ming's mind.

"Are you Jason?"

Looking at the other person's attire, Wen Ming asked a question with some uncertainty.

The hood, the crude way the ropes were tied, and the stench emanating from him reminded him of a notorious serial killer.

Jason Voorhees.

Crystal Lake Killer!

One of the four most notorious serial killers in film history.

When he saw the other person's outfit, he thought they were a cosplayer, since many people were cosplaying other famous figures today.

But considering that the other party attacked Rebecca directly, especially since Rebecca was in his arms at the time, he couldn't help but think of Jason's other nickname.

Couple killer.

Never show affection in front of Jason; he preys on couples.

"Roar--"

Jason growled and tried to break free from Wen Ming's grasp, but Wen Ming had been strengthened multiple times, and no matter how much the burly man struggled, he could not escape Wen Ming's control.

In his desperation, he grabbed the dagger that had fallen to the ground and stabbed at a tourist nearby. Fearing that he would hurt someone, Wen Ming pulled him sharply, yanking him forward so hard that the burly man weighing several hundred pounds was dragged face-first into the mud.

Lex was even more surprised when he saw this.

Wen Ming is incredibly strong.

Is he an alien?
How could an ordinary person possess such great power?

However, it was this pull that gave Jason an opportunity. He took the chance to lunge forward, break free from Wen Ming's restraints, grab a tourist next to him, and point a dagger at the other person's neck.

"what--"

The female tourist screamed, and the surrounding tourists looked over in surprise, then screamed and ran away.

Fortunately, the location was on the outskirts of the tourist crowd, and as soon as the tourists dispersed, the 911s on duty nearby immediately noticed the situation.

"Drop your weapons!"

Upon seeing Jason's knife, the 911 members all drew their guns and pointed them at him.

When Jason saw so many guns pointed at him, for reasons unknown, he suddenly shoved the female tourist aside and ran headlong into the distance.

"Stop! If you don't stop, I'll shoot!"

"Bang bang bang—" When the 911s' shouts were ineffective, they simply emptied their magazines at the burly figure of the other party.

Upon seeing this, Wen Ming breathed a slight sigh of relief, but then immediately became tense again.

Jason's greatest strength as one of the four most notorious serial killers in film history lies in his incredible ability to survive—he is immortal.

Since Jason Voorhees' debut in 1980, he has been sent to his grave in every episode, but in the next episode, he will wield that machete again to take revenge on the survivors of the previous episode.

To put it bluntly, the reason Jason hasn't died is because this horror movie series is so profitable that the investors have to keep buffing Jason and bringing him back to life.

Jason's known abilities include unlimited resurrection and regeneration, superhuman strength, stamina, attack speed and perception, teleportation, mastery of weapons, mind manipulation, and possession.

In Jason X form, he also gains abilities such as invisibility, reactive evolution, electrical manipulation, hacking, information analysis, and ice manipulation.

In the future world of the tenth film in the series, "Jason in Space," he even acquires nanobots and has a super alloy body.

In other words, Jason becomes stronger each time he dies.

Thinking of this, Wen Ming suddenly walked towards the Iron Hotel in the distance. Lex thought that Wen Ming did not want to cause trouble, so he and Rebecca quickly followed.

However, after Wen Ming had walked for a while, the 911s suddenly shouted in surprise from afar: "He's not dead? He's gone into the sewers? Go after him!"

Lex quickly turned his head to look, only to see that the burly body that had been lying on the ground had vanished without a trace.

He turned sharply to look at Wen Ming, whose face was full of solemnity: "It seems my hotel is about to welcome a super villain just like you."

Lex's face immediately darkened: "What did I do wrong?"

"From beginning to end, how are you not bad?"

Wen Ming's serious expression faded as he stared at Lex: "Don't think I don't know what you were up to in the crowd just now."

Lex looked completely innocent: "I didn't do anything, I was just watching the show."

"Is it?"

Wen Ming remained noncommittal, his expression enigmatic: "I had originally prepared a surprise for you, intending to treat your baldness for free, but now I've decided to take $10 worth of gold from you!"

"Walter?"

Lex was stunned for a moment, then looked at Wen Ming with ecstatic joy: "You can cure my baldness? Wen Ming, did I hear that right?"

Lex knew the Metaverse Hotel was amazing, but he never expected it could cure his baldness. After all, his baldness was caused by the mysterious meteorite he was exposed to as a child.

Over the years, I've spent countless amounts of money, but no doctor has ever been able to cure me.

Now Wen Ming is telling him that he can cure his baldness, how could he not be happy?

Wen Ming shrugged: "I'm not sure yet, but I should be able to treat you."

"I'll pay $10!"

Without hesitation, Lex reached for the capsule, preparing to take out the gold.

Lex wouldn't even blink at $10, let alone $20.

He had dreamed of having a thick head of hair his whole life.

You should know that because of your baldness, you have been bullied by countless people since you were a child. Even in a prestigious school, it was the reason that people mocked and bullied you.

But Wen Ming waved his hand and said, "Let's go, let's try it first, it might not even work."

Lex was overjoyed and strode after him.

He didn't hear the second half of the sentence at all.

I'm going to have hair again!

I'm going to have hair again!

I'm going to have hair again!

Wenming, you are truly my angel!

……

"Thank you, boss, you saved my life!"

Inside the elevator, Rebecca looked at Wen Ming with gratitude and lingering fear in her eyes. Wen Ming shook his head and said, "He didn't come for you, he came for me."

Rebecca shook her head violently: "No, he stabbed me, and I was so negligent that I didn't even notice it beforehand."

"It wasn't your negligence; I discovered it beforehand."

This time, it really wasn't Rebecca's fault. After all, Wen Ming was pushing her forward at the time, and in such a dense space, only her powerful mental strength could detect the knife that was being stabbed from the shadows.

Rebecca was deeply grateful, but also filled with remorse.

She felt she hadn't done a good job as a bodyguard.

Lex, who was standing nearby, immediately chimed in, "Dating can definitely affect a bodyguard's concentration."

"20 US dollars."

Wen Ming's eyes swept over with a sharp, piercing gaze.

Lex was stunned for a moment: "Wow? $20? What $20?"

The cost of treating your baldness!

Wen Ming withdrew his gaze and stopped looking at Lex.

Lex immediately realized he had misspoke, and he said with a forced smile, "I was talking about the general situation. Rebecca is so capable, she definitely wasn't distracted. Didn't she immediately pull out her gun? Didn't that man get scared away by her?"

Rebecca forced a smile, but Wen Ming could tell that this highly responsible young woman was still affected by Lex's mood.

Thinking of this, Wen Ming was secretly annoyed. He stopped walking out of the elevator car and shouted, "Queen of the Sea, notify Bulma to release POD 153."

"Okay, boss."

Bulma's voice soon came from the laboratory, followed by a drone that quickly flew out of the laboratory, circled around Wen Ming, and then hovered in the air behind him.

"This is……"

Lex stared at the drone in front of him, his intuition telling him that this was another good thing.

Wen Ming turned around and looked at Lex with a serious expression: "Thank you for reminding me earlier. The person who just tried to assassinate Rebecca was a powerful undead creature."

He escaped into the sewers; he'll definitely come back to kill Rebecca again.

"So dangerous? An immortal body?"

A look of surprise flashed in Lex's eyes.

Are there really such dangerous aliens?

Immediately, a glint of covetousness appeared in his eyes.

"So, I'll be very busy tonight."

Wen Ming pointed at Rebecca: "POD 153, you'll protect Rebecca tonight."

"Roger that, boss!"

The warning light above POD 153 flashed once, and then it flew to Rebecca's side.

Rebecca was deeply moved, but she still strongly objected, saying, "Boss, your safety is more important."

"Now is my time to protect you."

Wen Ming domineeringly rejected Rebecca, then turned around and pressed the elevator button again.

Lex was stunned again: "Weren't you going to treat my baldness?"

"As I just said, tonight will be very busy."

So, let's wait a bit longer for treatment.

Wen Ming beckoned Rebecca, who was about to step out of the elevator car, to get back in. Lex was about to go crazy: "Wait, wait, the treatment won't take much time, will it?"

With his intelligence, he immediately guessed that Wen Ming was definitely doing this on purpose.

"Yes, the treatment only takes a few minutes."

The elevator doors were about to close when Lex heard those words and he nearly exploded on the spot.

He hadn't expected that Wen Ming's doubled medical expenses wouldn't be enough to vent his anger, but he was powerless against the odds. With a forced smile, he reached out and stopped the elevator doors from closing, squeezing back in: "Wen Ming, is tomorrow morning okay? I think you should be able to spare a few minutes tomorrow morning."

"Perhaps, it depends on when the alarm is lifted."

Wen Ming nodded apologetically to Lex, then said into his phone, "Queen of the Sea, activate the alarm and put all combat personnel into 24-hour combat readiness."

Send Jason's information to everyone, and be vigilant at all entrances and exits, especially all sewage outlets, to guard against Jason's intrusion.

"Received, boss, alarm activated."

All combat personnel are now on combat readiness.

The Queen of the Sea replied quickly, and Wen Ming looked up at Lex: "Sorry, I can't entertain you tonight. Would you like to go back or get a room?"

"I'll book a room, um, the presidential suite."

Lex forced a smile, but inwardly he was cursing.

hemp eggs.

All I did was say one wrong thing.
Is it really necessary to make such a big fuss?

Now I'm starting to doubt whether what you call immortality is really true.

Lex, feeling dejected, took the elevator to the lobby on the first floor and walked up to Charon at the front desk: "Give me a room."

"I'm sorry, Mr. Luther, all the hotel rooms were booked this morning."

Charon looked at Lex apologetically.

"what?"

Lex was furious. This Wen Ming was incredibly stingy! "The presidential suite! I want the presidential suite!"

"You may not know this, but today is the last day of the Summer Street Carnival. Our hotel serves as a rest stop, and our occupancy rate has been close to 100% for the past three Saturdays."

Because the closing ceremony and performances are being held in front of the hotel today, even the presidential suite was fully booked yesterday.

Charon patiently explained the reason, and then said, "If it were a different Saturday, there might still be one or two presidential suites available."

Lex's sharp mind immediately deduced that Charon was not lying to him, which still made him very unhappy, so he stormed out in a huff.

Wen Ming has a way to cure his own baldness, but he refuses to do so because of a single wrong sentence he said. That's too much.

Did I say something wrong?

It's true that a bodyguard's romantic relationship can be distracting!

Rebecca is such a serious and lovely girl, isn't she only distracted by you, you jerk?

And you've put her in such great danger.

Is that immortal man real?

Why is Wen Ming so familiar with these time travelers?
Is there some secret here that you don't know about?
"I made a mistake today. I must be more careful with my words next time. How could I make such a mistake with my emotional intelligence?"

However, it's still because Wen Ming is too stingy!

Lex grumbled indignantly as he reflected on how he should deal with Wen Ming next time.

He had just stepped onto the tree-lined path when suddenly there was a loud crack in the sky, a bolt of lightning streaked across the sky, and then a torrential downpour began.

"damn it!"

Lex cursed under his breath, wondering why he was having such a bad day.

He didn't bother going back to the hotel to take shelter from the rain and rushed quickly toward the intersection.

In the pouring rain, he ran past a large tree, but after running only a few meters, he suddenly stopped.

Ignoring the fact that he was soaked to the bone, Lex suddenly turned around and looked at the big tree.

A tall man wearing a white burlap hood and holding a huge fire axe strode towards him from behind a large tree.

"You, you're Jason?"

The tall man was none other than the man who had attempted to assassinate Rebecca earlier that day.

Overjoyed, Lex greeted the other man loudly amidst the thunder, lightning, and torrential rain: "My name is Lex, Lex Luthor. Can we be friends?"

……

P.S.: Today is May 520th, does anyone want to send me some votes?
