Chen Qinghai’s footsteps faltered as he looked at Chen Shu, realizing he had misunderstood.
“One price, I want eight bottles of potion as a handling fee!”
“Deal!”
At this moment, a faint voice rang out.
Beside the two, where there was no one, a shadow suddenly appeared, and then a figure condensed.
It was the Dark King!
“Dark King…”
Chen Qinghai quickly stood up, a hint of respect in his eyes.
“One hundred and fourteen pieces of Frenzied Star Leaves!”
The Dark King waved its right hand, and a mass of ink floated in mid-air. From within, hundreds of Frenzied Star Leaves flew out with a rustling sound.
“The remaining materials will be sent directly to your home.”
It glanced at Chen Shu. The price the latter had offered was within the elder’s acceptable range. Thirty bottles would be enough to raise the combat power of Dragon Abyss City’s experts by a significant margin.
“Thank you, Dark King.”
Chen Shu also stood up, his eyes showing respect, and collected the Frenzied Star Leaves.
The Dark King said faintly, “Do it as quickly as possible.”
Chen Shu smiled slightly and gave a positive answer, “No problem, I’ll prepare them immediately.”
With that, the Dark King nodded, its body turning into a black shadow and disappearing from the headquarters of the Dragon Guard.
“With this, I’ll have twelve bottles…”
Chen Shu muttered to himself, instantly feeling that his survival ability had increased by a level. He could now contend with King-level experts without any problem.
Chen Qinghai raised an eyebrow and said, “Why do you need so many, kid?”
“It’s a life-saving item, so the more the better.”
Chen Shu grinned, offering no explanation.
Suddenly, hundreds of spatial marks appeared on his body, and he instantly returned to Nanjiang City.
“This kid…”
Chen Qinghai shook his head, not saying much more.
After all, Chen Shu was the only one in the country who could concoct them. It was only natural for him to want some potions for survival. He didn’t want to stand on a moral high ground and demand Chen Shu hand over the potions…
…
Five days passed in the blink of an eye.
Chen Shu had been staying at home, concocting potions. In reality, the system was doing the concocting, and he could have been doing other things.
However, to make others think that concocting was difficult for him, Chen Shu could only pretend…
“That’s fast…”
One morning, dozens of bottles of Berserk Potions were placed on the table in front of him. The liquid within was blood-red, seeming to flow with a strange and powerful force.
“All good things for saving my life…”
He muttered, collecting all the potions into the system space and simultaneously notifying the officials and the King Beast Tamer group.
With less than a hundred bottles in total, he had finished concocting them in just one day.
“Now I have nothing to do…”
Chen Shu lay on the bed, feeling relaxed, and simultaneously contemplating his next plan to cause trouble… or rather, to become stronger.
He now had three ways to advance further:
First, he could exchange treasures with the elder, but the required resources were terrifying, often in the hundreds of billions, which even he found a bit overwhelming.
Second, he could concoct miraculous potions, but he could only concoct Nuclear Bomb and Berserk Potions at the moment. However, without the main ingredients for the latter, he could only concoct Nuclear Bombs. But he didn't have extra money on him, nor could he afford the raw materials for Nuclear Bombs.
“This is difficult…”
Chen Shu murmured. Just as he was thinking, options appeared before his eyes:
[The world is chaotic, fierce beasts run rampant, the hunting fierce beast option is automatically activated:]
[Option 1: Hunt one Gold Lord, ten Silver Lords, one hundred Bronze Lords! Completion Reward: Medium amount of Beast Taming Power + Miraculous Potion Small Gift Pack]
[Option 2: Hunt five Gold Lords, fifty Silver Lords, five thousand Silver Beasts! Completion Reward: Large amount of Beast Taming Power + Frenzied Star Leaves * 30 + ‘Spatial Dragon Rabbit’ attributes +3%]
[Option 3: Hunt ten Gold Lords, one hundred Silver Lords, fifty thousand Silver Beasts! Completion Reward: Massive amount of Beast Taming Power + unlock the concoction of ‘Death Potion’ + Contracted Spirit random ten skills +1]
“Hmm?”
Chen Shu’s expression lit up. He hadn't expected someone to send a pillow when he was sleepy.
“This thing should be able to sense my situation…”
His eyes darted around, and his mind began to ponder.
Years of experience had led him to a conclusion: the system had a bit of intelligence, but definitely not much…
“These are all weak fierce beasts, purely for me to practice?”
Chen Shu stroked his chin. Currently, he could kill Gold Lords with almost no suspense. This hunting efficiency was even better than that of King-level experts.
“Death Potion…”
He licked his lips, a flicker of hope in his heart.
Every time a miraculous potion was unlocked, it gave him an additional trump card.
Five days later, on the rooftop,
It was now deep autumn, and the weather was gradually turning cold. However, at this moment, hot steam was rising from the rooftop.
Several people were sitting around a circle, cooking a fragrant hot pot.
“Chen Shu, why did you call us over for no reason?”
Ah Liang took out a pair of chopsticks, looking at Chen Shu with confusion in his eyes.
“Isn’t it about cherishing the time we have together?”
Chen Shu raised an eyebrow and asked, “Are you going to another异空间 again?”
“Yes, probably in two days.”
Ah Liang shrugged and said, “Now that the official has a subsidy plan, we naturally have to seize every moment to become stronger.”
Fang Si also chimed in, “I’ll be leaving soon too. The Dragon Guard has given me new arrangements.”
Xie Sunan also mentioned that she had matters to attend to and would be leaving Nanjiang City tomorrow.
“Alright, everyone has ambition, just like me!”
Chen Shu nodded, and then took the opportunity to praise himself before asking again:
“That, I want to ask, are there any 异空间 with a large number of ordinary Silver beasts?”
The biggest difficulty of the system options was not the Lord fierce beasts, but the thirty thousand ordinary beasts.
Because they were Silver-level, his Nuclear Bombs were not very effective, unless the dosage was increased. However, the area of effect would be too large, potentially affecting other beast tamers.
“Hmm? What are you going to do?”
Wang Jue picked a slice of tender beef, his face filled with enjoyment.
“Of course, hunt fierce beasts!”
Chen Shu smiled and said, “I have nothing to do now, so I can start my vacation.”
“Vacation?”
Everyone’s expression froze. So, killing fierce beasts was your form of entertainment?
“This, I need to check.”
Ah Liang nodded and said, “I’ll summarize a list of 异空间 for you tomorrow. How many do you want to kill?”
“Fifty thousand!”
“???”
Everyone’s expression jolted, their eyes showing disbelief. You actually dared to say it…
Xie Sunan rubbed her head and said, “Are you sure you can do it alone?”
“Enough.”
Chen Shu said faintly, “As long as you can find them.”
With the attack range of Er Ha, killing ordinary fierce beasts was as easy as cutting grass.
“…”
Everyone shook their heads, no longer able to understand Chen Shu’s combat power. This guy alone could probably rival an entire beast tamer group.
