“Fully absorbing the energy in a pill within a day… Kid, you’re really amazing!” Huang Juyun praised him once more, an irresistible smile on his face.
The greater a genius his prospective son-in-law was, the happier Huang Juyun was. Perhaps a day would come when this kid became a divine-tier beastmaster?
At that time, the Huang family would become a top-tier clan in Hua Xia… or even all of Mercury!
A divine-tier beastmaster! It was the strongest combat force in the human world at present. Every divine-quality subdued beast was an extremely scarce strategic resource.
Although divine-quality exotic beasts weren’t especially rare in the beast worlds, they were simply too powerful. Even the strongest epic-quality exotic beast was no match at all for a divine-quality exotic beast, unless they were two star tiers above them.
Moreover, when an exotic beast’s quality reached divine-quality, there was a chance of them gaining a True Domain, a much stronger version of an epic-quality beast’s False Domain, encompassing attack and defense into one.
It was precisely due to the existence of True Domains that some divine-quality exotic beasts weren’t something human beastmasters could hunt at all. Even though beastmasters could attempt to fight with their numerical advantages, they could only defeat a divine-quality exotic beast at the most. It was truly too difficult to actually kill it.
After lamenting inside for a while, Huang Juyun shifted his gaze to the safe. A brief pause later, he took out ten bottles of the new body tempering pills from the safe and gave them to Zhang Che.
This kid could absorb a medicinal pill a day; it was better to prepare more for him!
The current production rate of the new body tempering pill wasn’t very high, so there weren’t many in stock at the moment. Otherwise, Huang Juyun would have directly given Zhang Che dozens, or even hundreds of bottles, and let him eat the pills like candy in the future.
After stashing the ten bottles of body tempering pills into his spatial storage, Zhang Che smiled widely. -Indeed, father-in-law’s herbal research institute is really capable.-
All those spiritual herbs and whatnot could only be converted into cash if Zhang Che was alone, and would not bring about any increase in his strength. But now, with these ten bottles of body tempering pills, the speed and efficiency at which Zhang Che tempered his physique within the next two years would be at its highest!
Two years from now, disregarding whether he could advance to Tier Eight beastmaster, the increase in his strength, physique, and other aspects of his body would totally surpass any other ordinary high-tier beastmaster, reaching an astonishing degree.
-At that time, maybe I can really withstand the attack from a high-tier high-quality exotic beast with my own body! As for scientific weapons, perhaps even ordinary miniature missiles wouldn’t be able to cause any material harm to me?- At the thought, Zhang Che grinned in anticipation.
Of course, he wouldn’t be satisfied with just that. His aim was to withstand attacks from high-tier high-quality exotic beasts with only his body!
——
The two walked out of the building. Huang Juyun’s personal terminal suddenly vibrated. He opened it up and listened to the call for a short moment. A hint of surprise flashed across his face, then he cast a glance at Zhang Che and replied politely before ending the call.
“Kid, you killed two extremely fast and powerful exotic beasts with Dijiang-hao and saved a commercial flight when you were on your way here?”
Zhang Che was slightly taken aback. That matter was found out so quickly?
He nodded, saying, “Mmm. I happened to notice two shadowy exotic beasts were about to attack a commercial plane, and so I used the laser on Dijiang-hao and killed those two creatures. But, I clearly remember that I didn’t stay there, and left immediately; how did they know it was me?”
A hint of a smile was apparent on the corners of Huang Juyun’s lips. He pointed to the sky, and explained, “There are observation satellites in outer space. Your Dijiang-hao is only able to avoid detection from radar; it’s not like it can really turn invisible. They only needed to retrieve the satellite footage at that time and they would immediately know it’s you from Dijiang-hao’s appearance.”
Zhang Che was embarrassed. Dijiang-hao was truly too eye-catching, after all. At present, he was probably the only person in all of Hua Xia to own such an extremely pricey luxurious object like Dijiang-hao…
Although Hua Xia Airlines had sold many private sky shuttles of the same model, they were all a cut-off version of Dijiang-hao. Their accessories paled in comparison, falling more than a generation behind.
Dijiang-hao was able to withstand attacks from epic-quality exotic beasts. The lower configuration units, however, would probably have trouble withstanding attacks from even mid-tier legend-quality exotic beasts!
Most notably, the high-efficiency laser installed on Dijiang-hao possessed terrifying attack power. Even high-tier epic-quality exotic beasts would be severely injured if struck, perhaps even killed directly!
The two started talking about private sky shuttles. Truthfully speaking, it was impossible for Huang Juyun to not feel any envy towards Zhang Che owning a top-tier luxurious product like Dijiang-hao.
However, Dijiang-hao was truly too expensive, so much so that people would shy away upon learning its price.
With a selling price of over a hundred million purple crystal points, Zhang Che was probably the only one who could take out such a huge sum and buy it without twitching a muscle…
But, after this incident, Hua Xia Airlines might find themselves laughing all the way to the bank. This kind of private sky shuttle with the highest speed in the world, in addition to possessing powerful attack power and defenses, was simply too attractive to those who were truly rich.
The reason why no one had bought it previously was because such an incident like today had yet to happen.
Those two shadowy exotic beasts were existences that had been huge headaches for the military in many different places over the past few months. Heavens knew how many aircraft had been destroyed. The military had tried on multiple occasions to get rid of them, but they managed to escape in the end every time. It went to show how fast and powerful they were.
Even so, those two insufferable exotic beasts were actually easily killed by Zhang Che’s Dijiang-hao today, fully displaying Dijiang-hao’s strength.
——
Developments after the incident was as Huang Juyun had expected. From that day on, many wealthy people started calling the Hua Xia Airlines one after another, inquiring about the price for a private sky shuttle like Dijiang-hao.
For a period of time after then, more than double digits of private sky shuttles like Dijiang-hao’s were sold to buyers across Hua Xia, earning a huge fortune for the Hua Xia Airlines.
Not only that, rich men from other regions also wanted to order one for themselves. However, it was impossible for Hua Xia to sell products of that level to them.
Of course, since all of Mercury had established the alliance government in name, Hua Xia Airlines couldn’t reject them directly. They could only do so in a roundabout way, saying that the materials to build sky shuttles like Dijiang-hao were exhausted, and they could no longer produce such a top-tier version.
If the rich from other regions insisted on buying a less valuable model, Hua Xia Airlines could still barely sell some to them.
After learning about this, Zhang Che couldn’t help but feel very frustrated by the fact that he couldn’t go to Hua Xia Airline’s headquarters and ask them to pay him advertising fees.
Without that indicent, how could Hua Xia Airlines have earned such a fortune?!
