Looking at the humanoid black pet in front of him, Qian Er was quite satisfied with its species aptitude.
With a special attack stat as high as 145, coupled with the elusive nature of the Shadow Demon, it was naturally a good material for ambushes, often enough to deliver a fatal blow.
It's just that my development of the 'Shadow Dive' skill hasn't reached Professor Yong Xuehai's level yet, otherwise, I think it would definitely have even more surprising effects.
Before, when I destroyed several major families, it was because I prematurely revealed information to them through direct confrontation, allowing them to take some countermeasures, which was really troublesome.
Just imagine, if someone becomes my enemy in the future, I can use Shadow Dive to get close to them and suddenly chop off their head, and they wouldn't even know what happened.
That would be too convenient.
This world has never been about fairness, but about the winner being king.
Among the newly acquired skills, 'Curse Blade' is the Shadow Demon's most effective attack method. The already powerful skill, combined with a high special attack stat, results in devastating single-point explosive power.
It's simply a perfect assassin.
After clearing the zombies in this city, Qian Er returned to the Pet World.
He had barely returned when he heard the butler knocking on the door.
"Your Majesty, there's someone outside named Zhang Fengye requesting an audience."
Zhang Fengye?
Qian Er thought about it, he was the lucky young man with the top-tier Flying-type amplification talent that he had once sponsored.
Back then, Qian Er had given him an egg from an elder of the Void Sky Crane clan and arranged for people to send him resources from time to time.
You must know that in this world, resources are the most valuable thing. As long as there are enough resources, even a quasi-king can be forced out. After all, there are no Heavenly Barriers before reaching True King level.
Qian Er went out and saw Zhang Fengye already waiting at the door. When he saw Qian Er, he knelt down from afar.
"Zhang Fengye greets Your Majesty!"
In fact, it's rare to see people kneeling nowadays, but this young man was clearly doing it out of gratitude to Qian Er.
Qian Er called Zhang Fengye into the mansion and began to inquire about his recent situation, which made Zhang Fengye feel a little overwhelmed.
After all, everything he has today was given by Qian Er.
Looking at Zhang Fengye's expression, Qian Er knew that he hadn't misjudged him. This Zhang Fengye was indeed a grateful person.
Zhang Fengye's Void Sky Crane is still in the royal mansion's breeding room. Qian Er hasn't checked on it much, but it should be hatching soon. After all, it's an elder of the Void Sky Crane clan, so the hatching time should be different from normal eggs, which is perfectly normal.
As for the contract, he wasn't worried at all. After all, he could tell from his talent that Zhang Fengye was also a rare genius. Although he couldn't compare to himself, he could definitely surpass most Pet Tamers.
Moreover, he had his resource support.
Resources are often extremely limited for those who need them most, while those who can obtain endless resources, like Qian Er now, have already passed the stage where they need resources.
With Qian Er's help, Zhang Fengye will be able to treat resources like food when he contracts with the Void Sky Crane. With Qian Er's backing, it would be strange if he didn't improve quickly!
"Not bad. You can follow me for the next period of time. You should learn something."
"Understood, thank you, Your Majesty," Zhang Fengye lowered his head slightly and responded after a moment.
This Zhang Fengye is a useful person. Although talented people are rare, they can still be found, but people who can guarantee loyalty are extremely rare.
People's hearts are separated by their bellies, and this saying applies to any world.
Looking at his back, Qian Er already had a plan for the next phase of Beishi's development.
As for the matter of the undercover agents, he had fully entrusted it to City Lord Zhang and Ao Tianshun. He also had a guess about the specific identities of the infiltrators.
He had tried to use the Samsara Flag to extract their soul memories, but found that these people had no souls at all. Surely someone from the myriad races was causing trouble again.
According to City Lord Zhang, Ao Tianshun was in a precarious situation that night and almost lost his life, but fortunately, he managed to get through it with his rhetoric and even tricked them into revealing something.
Now, Beishi's civil service system has a preliminary form, but there are no military generals yet, but there will be soon.
Qian Er brought Zhang Fengye by his side and taught him many things. Zhang Fengye's learning speed was quite good.
These days, Zhang Fengye had become Qian Er's confidant, but Qian Er had never given him any position. Only Zhang Fengye's parents knew what Zhang Fengye was doing every day.
One evening, Zhang Fengye suddenly invited Qian Er to a banquet. Qian Er thought it was just a normal dinner and, having nothing else to do, agreed. The two walked towards Zhang Fengye's home.
… …
Inside Zhang Fengye's home.
"I heard that your son has a top-tier Flying-type amplification talent, which is really rare."
A bald man in a suit grinned and touched his bald head. His body was so thin that he couldn't fill out the suit, making him look a little comical.
Behind him were several other people, all dressed in business attire, standing silently behind the bald man.
"It's really enviable. You must know that this kind of talent is something that many people dream of but can't reach. It's just that being born in your family has somewhat delayed the child."
The bald man continued to talk eloquently. His voice was not loud, but his pronunciation was very clear, and the smile on his face never faded.
Opposite him were also sitting two people, a middle-aged couple, who were Zhang Fengye's parents.
They didn't speak for a moment in the face of the bald man's provocation.
"You don't want your child to have top-tier talent but be held back by their family background, do you?"
"Eagles should have a vast sky to fly in."
The bald man clapped his hands, and one of the men behind him took out a document from his briefcase and handed it to him.
"Take a look. We are willing to provide Zhang Fengye with an environment that you absolutely cannot give him. This is an opportunity for your family to rise to prominence."
Father Zhang looked at the document, which stated in black and white that the company would provide training for Zhang Fengye, and the price was that Zhang Fengye would have to work for them after training.
Moreover, there was no time limit, a bit like selling oneself.
Father Zhang glared and slammed the paper on the table, his expression mainly one of unrestrainedness.
The people in front of him were ill-intentioned. Fortunately, he knew in his heart that Zhang Fengye was on his way to invite the Town Suppressing King.
So he could stall for as long as possible.
"I'm illiterate, what kind of bullshit is written here!"
The bald man still smiled and said, "Then shall I read it to you?"
