Nuclear Warhead Cooked in Wine

At the opening ceremony of Sea Blue Star Basic Military Academy, as the representative of the incoming freshmen, Guding proclaimed his grand ambition in front of all the teachers and students: 
"I'm Guding! I'm gonna become the Man with the Highest Bounty in the entire Cosmic Sea!"
--------------------------------------------
It is an era of artificial superintelligences, interstellar travel, gene medicine, and virtual reality worlds. 
Far into Earth's future, 15-year-old Gu Ding is a student of Cerulean Military Academy by day, and tavern waiter by night. 
His ambition: Become the space pirate with the highest bounty offered by the Universal Federation Government. 
With the help of Neptune, a neonate super-intelligence, Guding finds himself thrust into a galaxy of shadowy organizations, political under dealings, and otherworldly forces that lie beyond human comprehension…

The Highest Bounty

Having his Beast Egg's origins pointed out, the old man wasn't flustered, simply responding with a tranquil smile, "Fatty, you do have some insights. Since you know this is a Gold Element Devouring Beast, you should also be aware that if raised properly, it even has a certain chance of advancing to True God Level. One million Source Stones doesn't seem too high to me."


"Fatty, you can just keep on dreaming," the old man said dismissively. "No matter which type of Devouring Beast it is, in order to break through the Divine Barrier, it must undergo mutation." The fatty immediately refuted his claim.


"Then how can you be so sure that this Beast Egg of mine isn't mutated?" the old man squinted at the fatty, his expression quite roguish.


"Whether it's mutated or not can only be known after it hatches; of course, I can't tell. But are you so certain that your Beast Egg is mutated?" The fatty looked confrontationally at the other party.
