Divine Beast Lord: 10000 Amplifier From The Start - Chapter 64

64 Doing Business with a Big Boss!

Seeing that Wang Xiao could not wait to use the [City Building Token] immediately, Chen Xue chuckled and said, “Don’t be anxious. There’s still something good I haven’t given you.”

“There’s more?”

Wang Xiao was stunned. The reward for the lord competition had been determined before the competition began. Why didn’t he know that there were other things?

Chen Xue smiled mysteriously and kept him in suspense. Then, she took out three cards shining with green light from her pocket.

!!
“In view of your outstanding performance in the lord competition, this is an additional reward given to you by the academy.”

Chen Xue explained with a smile, “They originally wanted to hold a celebration ceremony for you, but there are still many things to settle now, so it can can only be postponed.”

“Actually, it’s fine even if there’s no ceremony.”

Wang Xiao took the skill card and said with a smile. After all, the celebration ceremony could not be eaten. It was more practical to have such a reward in his hand.

With that said, Wang Xiao looked at the rewards given by the academy and revealed a pleasantly surprised expression.

[Berserk (Green): Can increase the overall strength of soldiers by ten times. Effective time: 15 seconds]

[Blood Qi Connection (Green): It can share the health and defense of ten units of soldiers! (Charge 3/3)]

[Water of Life (Green): Summon the Water of Life. It covers an area of a thousand meters. The recovery speed of all soldiers in this area is increased by 500%.]

These three skill cards were all green quality. They might be useless to other lords, but they were extremely useful to him!

There was no need to mention the [Blood Qi Connection]. If not for this skill, Wang Xiao would not have been able to annihilate so many Crimson Star lords in the secret realm.

The remaining [Berserk] and [Water of Life] could increase the strength of the soldiers by ten times. The other could allow the injured soldiers to quickly recover. It was almost equivalent to mastering the lord talents of Tang Hengshan and Yang Fan!

Although they were all one-time use skill cards, if they were used appropriately, they could definitely turn the tables!

“Thank you, Teacher Chen!”

Wang Xiao could not help but thank her again. This reward was simply too good!

Chen Xue smiled and expressed that there was no need to be polite. At this moment, the middle-aged man who had been silent all this while smiled and said, “Alright, we’re done talking about serious matters. Can you let me talk to this little fellow alone?”

Hearing the middle-aged man speak, Chen Xue immediately revealed a respectful expression. After saying, “Please go ahead,” she waved her hand and gestured for Zhou Xiruo to go out with her.

After the two girls left the ward, Wang Xiao carefully sized up the middle-aged man in front of him. At first glance, he felt that the other party was familiar, but he could not remember where he had seen the other party before.

“Wang Xiao, right?”

The middle-aged man sat on the edge of the bed with a smile and extended his right hand amiably. “Hello, my name is Chen Jinrong.”

“Hello…”

Wang Xiao shook the other party’s hand and suddenly thought of something. His expression changed. “Chen Jinrong? The commander-in-chief of the Kaiyang Military District, Chen Jinrong?!”

Chen Jinrong smiled and nodded. Wang Xiao was so shocked that he almost rolled off the bed!

Perhaps there were people in Kaiyang City who did not know who the City Lord was, but there was definitely no one who did not know who Chen Jinrong was!

This person joined the army at the age of 16 and became the commander-in-chief of the military region at the age of 30. Seven of the commander-in-chiefs of the 12 military regions on the Blue Planet were once his subordinates!

How could Wang Xiao not be surprised that such a big shot had personally come to visit him in the ward?

As if seeing through Wang Xiao’s thoughts, Chen Jinrong smiled and waved his hand. “Don’t be nervous. I’m only an ordinary person. I’ll be frank with you since I’m not afraid of you being arrogant. The ability you displayed in this Crimson Star invasion is much stronger than mine back then!”

At this point, Chen Jinrong suddenly sighed regretfully. “It’s a pity that you haven’t joined the army yet, so I can’t apply for battle merits for you. Otherwise, you would definitely be able to receive a gold medal!”

The quality of the military merit medal was the same as the quality of the soldiers. It was also from black iron to diamond. Moreover, this was not only a symbol of honor, but it could also be used to obtain merit points from the City Lord Manor every year.

The gold medal would give him 500,000 star coins every year, and Wang Xiao had only earned 300,000 star coins from the resources he had plundered from several secret realms previously.

“You’re too polite! I only did what I had to do!”

Wang Xiao hurriedly was humble. He paused and probed, “You didn’t come here just to visit me today, right?”

As he spoke, Wang Xiao waved the three skill cards in his hand. His intentions could not be any more obvious.

Chen Jinrong saw through Wang Xiao’s thoughts and immediately laughed out loud. “Kid, you’re really profit-seeking! However, I’m sorry. I didn’t bring anything this time. Instead, I have to ask you for something.”

“You want something from me?”

When Wang Xiao heard this, he immediately hid the skill card behind him. “Stop joking. I’m just a poor student. How can I have anything you fancy?”

“Who says you don’t?”

Chen Jinrong retracted his smile and his gaze, which seemed to be able to see through souls, landed on Wang Xiao’s face. “Previously, you destroyed many Crimson Star lords. Their resources should be with you, right?”

“Well…”

Wang Xiao was speechless for a moment. Although there was a rule in the Blue Planet that stated that the resources belonged to the victorious lord, how could he not give it to the military big shot if the other party asked for it?

Seeing that Wang Xiao was in a difficult position, Chen Jinrong waved his hand and continued with a smile, “Don’t be nervous first. Let me finish.”

“We captured the Crimson Star royal family’s Andu and discovered some suspicious things during the interrogation.”

“However, this Crimson Star royal family is very cunning and refuses to reveal any information no matter what. Therefore, we want to study these people’s portable resources and analyze their true motive for this operation.”

Wang Xiao nodded and did not say anything. Chen Jinrong sighed softly and said helplessly, “Don’t worry, we’re just borrowing it. We’ll return it to you after the research. Moreover, we can provide some corresponding remuneration.”

Hearing that there was a reward, Wang Xiao immediately revealed an excited expression. “What reward?”

Chen Jinrong narrowed his eyes. “Kid, have you long been thinking of how you could extort me?”

Wang Xiao chuckled and did not deny it. Chen Jinrong rolled his eyes at Wang Xiao. “Tell me what you want first!”

“Materials.”

Wang Xiao said seriously without hesitation, “Breakthrough Stones and Mutated Cores… As for how many, naturally the more the better!”

“Breakthrough Stone? Mutated Cores?”

Chen Jinrong was shocked and looked at Wang Xiao with a hint of anger in his eyes. “Kid, you’re really bold! Those are all rare strategic resources. Even I have to apply to report them if I want to use them!”

“It’s precisely because it’s rare that I’m asking you…”

Wang Xiao lowered his head and pretended to be aggrieved. He muttered softly, “You still owe me a gold medal…”

Hearing the “Gold Medal”, Chen Jinrong immediately lost his temper. He thought for a moment and said, “Then ten Breakthrough Stones and one Mutated Core!”

“Thirty!”

“That’s fine, but then I won’t give you the Mutated Core!”

“…”

Wang Xiao did not expect the other party to reject him so bluntly. He could only take the initiative to lower the price and say, “Then 20 Breakthrough Stones and one Mutated Core?”

Seeing Chen Jinrong’s hesitation, Wang Xiao chuckled and slowly said, “Actually, if you really can’t bear to part with it, you can give me something else.”

“Oh?”

Chen Jinrong was immediately interested. “What do you want?”

Wang Xiao chuckled and finally exposed his true intentions. “Ten high-level beast eggs!”
