451: Chapter 451 An Unexpected Phone Call
Chen Yi looked at the test tube in his hand, feeling emotional.
Half a year ago, he was wracking his brain trying to figure out how to handle the final potion—half a year later, he was the one considering injecting it!
Fate is truly ironic!
The most direct way to increase attributes is to raise the Rank and favorability of The girls.
As long as The girls' attributes increase, he can also enjoy a one-tenth attribute bonus shared from them.
This is much faster than simply grinding for Enhancement Points.
He glanced at The girls beside him, who were wearing worried expressions, and smiled: "Everyone, don't worry. Before I make all the preparations, I won't use it rashly. You just have to trust me!"
Upon hearing this, The girls finally felt relieved.
"That's good—we can prepare slowly."
"Just say if you need any resources, the Luo family will fully support you."
"Do you want—me to help you relax some more? It can increase Affinity~~~"
Other girls also expressed they would cooperate fully.
It had been nearly two and a half years since Chen Yi first contracted Lin Mengxue at the Jiangcheng Beast Taming Academy.
During this time, Chen Yi had made countless decisions.
But without exception, they were all incredibly correct decisions, so naturally, they trusted Chen Yi immensely.
From the initial academy final exams to later Secret Realm explorations, and then to maneuvering against the Demon Abyss Cult, Chen Yi had led them to victory every single time—this trust was built through countless trials and was unbreakable!
Now, with Chen Yi's guarantee, they were naturally full of confidence!
Emilia, who was on the side, said: "Since that's the case, whatever you need us to do, we will help you!"
Chen Yi smiled: "Thank you all for your trust! I, Chen Yi, swear, I will definitely not lose!"
—Inside the Cultivate room, Chen Yi sat cross-legged.
A latest world situation map was spread out in front of him.
His fingertips moved slowly across the map, his mind rapidly calculating his next plan.
After fifteen days of crazy Cultivate, The girls' strength had made a qualitative leap.
But Chen Yi's own attributes were stuck at a Bottleneck, one step away from the 5000 points required by the System.
And to enhance the final potion, he still needed to gather 4000 Enhancement Points.
Time was tight. Although ZERO was temporarily holding still, that eerie calm was unsettling.
Chen Yi had a premonition that a bigger storm was brewing.
He needed to increase his strength faster.
He should see if there was a chance to meet one or two more Spirit Beast Girls with hidden Bloodline.
With Chen Yi's current reputation, strength, appearance, plus the righteousness of saving their lives or fighting external enemies together, it made high favorability possible upon the first contract.
As long as he could contract them, there was a high probability of directly getting the 80 favorability reward.
If that didn't work, he would pick from those Demon Emperor girls.
Among the thirty-seven former Demon Emperors that Hua Liuli had reincarnated into, although they had recovered their past life memories, they were essentially still of the Demon Emperor Bloodline.
And they were all Demon Emperors who trusted Chen Yi very much!
If he could contract a few of them, he could not only farm Enhancement Points but also strengthen the power of the Demon Abyss Cult side!
Thinking of this, a specific figure appeared in Chen Yi's mind—Yuri Demon Empress Ai Ke.
She was powerful, tsundere, and had an almost paranoid loyalty to Hua Liuli.
Since hearing that Hua Liuli had contracted with Chen Yi, she had been a bit crazy.
The look she gave Chen Yi made it seem like she wanted to kill him.
At the Demon Emperor meeting yesterday, Chen Yi could clearly feel the hostility from Yuri Demon Empress Ai Ke, as if she wanted to swallow him alive.
If it weren't for Hua Liuli being present, or perhaps considering Chen Yi's strength, she might have already taken action.
However, when Yuri Demon Empress Ai Ke heard that Hua Liuli was actually serving Chen Yi together with other Spirit Beast Girls, a super bold idea emerged in her mind.
If she also formed a contract with Chen Yi, couldn't she also indirectly—share a contractor with Hua Liuli? In a sense, that was also a special kind of connection!
Becoming Chen Yi's Contracted Spirit Beast would give her a legitimate reason to approach Hua Liuli and serve Chen Yi together with Hua Liuli—
Once this thought sprouted, the look she gave Chen Yi changed instantly, suddenly becoming much more agreeable.
From "the bastard who snatched Lady Liuli" to "the tool person who could become a bridge between me and Lady Liuli"!
Although still a tool person, at least—he was useful!
If she could be with the Hua Liuli she longed for—then being ruined by Chen Yi was not unacceptable!
Yuri Demon Empress Ai Ke bit her lip, an unnatural flush rising on her face.
She had already recovered her past life memories; the two sisters had never had feelings for anyone other than each other!
Now there was only Hua Liuli!
That kind of feeling was very complex; it contained worship, dependence, possessiveness, and a certain palpitation she dared not delve into—
As long as she could get close to Hua Liuli, she was willing to pay any price.
Come to think of it, perhaps Chen Yi was the only one who could help her break the ice with Hua Liuli?
Although Hua Liuli treated her well, she always maintained a superior-subordinate distance.
That sense of distance made Yuri Demon Empress Ai Ke both painful and fascinated. If Chen Yi could become a bridge to take her relationship with Hua Liuli a step further—
Thinking of this, the look she gave Chen Yi naturally became much more enthusiastic, and she couldn't wait to contract with Chen Yi.
The favorability shouldn't be too low either.
Chen Yi silently evaluated.
If he could successfully contract, plus subsequent cultivation, raising it above 80 points to get the reward shouldn't be a difficult task.
Just as Chen Yi was about to open his mouth to ask if Yuri Demon Empress Ai Ke was willing to contract, Chu Feiyu's phone rang suddenly.
She was stunned for a moment and took the phone from her bosom.
This was a special satellite phone that could communicate normally even in areas with severe magic interference.
The screen displayed an unknown number, but the caller ID was labeled "Home".
Was it sent by her parents?
Chu Feiyu's parents—Chu Xiaohe and Murong Yue—were both Advanced civil servants of the Dragon Kingdom Beast Tamer Association.
During this special period, they had been sent to the border region to carry out missions and hadn't been in contact for several days.
An ominous premonition surged in Chu Feiyu's heart.
She pressed the answer button: "Hello? Dad? Mom?"
The person on the other end of the phone was not Chu Feiyu's parents.
Instead, it was her parents' comrade-in-arms!
The message was very simple, just a few words—your parents have had an accident!
About the matter of Chu Feiyu's parents, Chu Xiaohe and Murong Yue, they actually knew a little bit.
Both were the backbone of the Dragon Kingdom Beast Tamer System; although they were not top-tier, they were experienced, loyal, and reliable.
As civil servants of the Beast Tamer Association, under the current special circumstances, they naturally had to go to the front lines to guard the border and closely monitor every move of foreign forces.
A month ago, they were sent to the southern border of the Dragon Kingdom, responsible for monitoring the movements in the direction of India.
That was one of the front lines where the Dragon Kingdom bordered the ZERO forces, and the situation had always been very tense.
