Yao Qian returned to his room, laid on the bed, and called his wife.
Li Nannan knew nothing about what had happened in Liming City. In her opinion, her family was saved!
If this was done, Old Yao could get a commission of 150 million, and the problem his family was facing now would be completely solved.
Although she still felt sorry for the previous loss and felt stupid, at least the despair from before was gone, so her tone was light.
"Old Yao, is everything going well on your side?"
"It's going well. Don't worry, we'll be able to turn things around soon …"
Yao Qian's lips curved into a relaxed smile.
Even if there were still many uncertainties, who cared!
There were too many uncertainties in life, and the reality was always stranger than the story.
When Shirō Makino came to the study, he saw that the things he had asked for were already prepared.
All kinds of talisman making materials, psychotropic drugs, and so on were neatly stacked there.
Those who didn't know would think that it was a pile of ordinary items, but in Shirō Makino's eyes, this pile exuded a sense of heroism.
"High-grade talisman paper from Senyue Planet, all-purpose ink from Wild Green Planet, and a talisman pen from Ancient Stone Planet … Hmm, they're all famous brands. It's good to be rich!"
Shirō Makino looked at the materials prepared by the Xiahou family and sighed with emotion.
Some special talismans needed special talisman paper, ink, and brush to make, but most auxiliary talismans could be made with these common materials.
However, even if it was a common material, it was also divided into different grades!
Among them, the talisman paper from Senyue Planet, the ink from Wild Green Planet, and the talisman pen from Ancient Stone Planet were famous throughout the Zulong Empire!
The kind that could guarantee the quality.
And these things were things that Shirō Makino couldn't afford before.
Of course, he could afford them now that he had a few billion in savings.
But since someone else was paying for them, why should he buy them himself?
If he knew that the Xiahou family had bad intentions towards him, he would be a big idiot if he was still polite to them, gentle, and modest.
Among the several auxiliary talisman techniques that Shirō Makino was good at, his spiritual power replenishment and psychic power replenishment had both reached a high grade level.
In reality, due to the limitations of his mental power, he could only draw elementary talismans. But in the Black Realm, he could easily draw high-level Spiritual Energy Replenishment and Mental Energy Replenishment Talismans!
However, other auxiliary types of talismans, such as enhanced attack, passive activation of defense, defense, speed, strength, agility, endurance, and purification talisman techniques, were currently only of mid-grade quality.
As for the auxiliary Talisman Techniques of the other five elements, most of them had not been made yet.
That was because he could only do it in the Black Domain. In the real world, he didn't have enough Psychic Energy to do it.
Among the curse-controlling types, the control talismans had long since reached high-grade quality. But the others, such as Poison, Slow, Weakening, and Aging, were all still low-grade.
As for Gravity, Seal, and other high-level control-type talismans, as well as other elemental talisman techniques, they were also unable to be completed in reality.
Among the offensive talismans, the sword talismans that he could draw in reality were not even at the low-grade level.
He had once created a Sword Talisman in the Black Domain. Back then, he had only been able to display its might because his level was high enough.
High-grade Sword Talismans, even if they weren't graded, were still quite powerful!
Quality brought about qualitative changes. The higher the quality of the offensive talisman, the greater the damage. Level brought about quantitative changes. The higher the level of the talisman, the longer the duration of the damage. But when the Talisman Artist reached the advanced level, the talismans that he created would also evolve from quantitative changes to qualitative changes.
It was the same offensive talisman, but the high-grade Sword Talisman created by the advanced Talisman Artist was extremely powerful. Spiritual Warriors of the same level would find it hard to defend against it.
Since it was currently difficult to break the seal on his mental power in the real world, Shirō Makino wanted to make use of this time to upgrade all the talismans that he could make in the real world to high-grade quality!
To be honest, this was not a small ambition.
For an ordinary Talisman Artist, this was an impossible task.
Even for a genius, it was not that easy.
Unless he was a super genius!
Shirō Makino was one.
A super genius would have to do things befitting of a super genius.
If he couldn't quickly improve his strength, then it would be difficult for him to be confident in the various competitions he would face in the future, the training in the ancient ruins, the dimensional space, or other encounters like the one with Master Ma.
He could ask Uncle Rui to be his bodyguard for a period of time, but he couldn't always have someone protecting him.
In the end, he still had to rely on himself!
This was the same principle as the saying, "Don't worry when you have money in your pocket": It was better to have it himself than anyone else!
No matter how optimistic a poor person was, it was impossible for him to be confident in everything.
As a Talisman Artist, if he couldn't make himself strong, then he could only brag to scare the other party no matter who he faced.
If he could scare the other party, then so be it. If he couldn't, then he would be an idiot.
These days, there weren't many people who could be scared.
Therefore, in order to not become an idiot in the eyes of others, Xiao Bai could only study hard and train hard.
"Learning makes me happy."
Shirō Makino's eyes lit up as he looked at the talisman crafting materials with a satisfied expression.
Sitting there, he started to draw talismans without any distractions.
The first thing he drew was the Agility Talisman.
This thing was really useful!
It had both speed and agility. Although it wasn't as fast as a pure Speed Talisman, it was more flexible!
Although the increase in quality wouldn't bring about a breakthrough in effectiveness, it could increase the power of the talisman!
A low-grade Agility Talisman could increase Ji Chae Yi's speed by about 50%, but a mid-grade Agility Talisman could increase her speed by 100%!
As for a high-grade Agility Talisman, even Ji Chae Yi wouldn't be able to use it at the moment. It could increase her speed by 300%!
And this was only a low-grade talisman.
If it was a mid-grade, high-level, or even a grandmaster level Talisman Artist, the effects of the talisman he drew would make people doubt their lives!
Of course, the talisman he was talking about here was the Talisman Technique from the Master Grimoire.
It was very different from other Talisman Techniques.
Just like other Talisman Techniques, the Cleansing Talisman couldn't cure Sun Heng's fire poison.
Even the Agility Talisman wouldn't have such a strong amplification effect.
He first chose to upgrade the Agility Talisman so that he could run faster.
Although it didn't mean much in front of a real expert, it wasn't the same thing as being able to do it.
Bai Muye continued to draw until late at night. After taking a look at the time, he silently put away all the talismans.
The quality didn't increase. They were still at the mid-grade standard, but it was very stable!
He believed that he could achieve a breakthrough if he drew some more Agility Talismans.
Drawing talismans was very boring and required absolute peace of mind.
Even a super genius like Shirō Makino couldn't achieve it in one go.
There was no shortcut to increase the quality of talismans.
Then, he casually drew some Spiritual Energy Replenishment Talismans and Mental Energy Replenishment Talismans. He purposely controlled the quality at mid-grade and low-grade, then threw them on the table.
After that, he stood up, stretched his body and looked out of the window.
The sky was already dark. The soft light shone on the flat lawn. Some bugs were dancing around the street lamps.
The temperature in Liming City was higher than Hundred Flowers City. It wasn't cold even in winter.
Unlike the northern cities, it was already a world of ice and snow in this season.
Speaking of the north, Shirō Makino was really looking forward to it. He hoped that he would have the opportunity to go there.
There were many open dimensional spaces there that could produce high-grade talisman materials of the ice and snow branch of the water element.
Although he couldn't use them now, he would definitely be able to use them in the future.
If he had to buy these things with his own money, the 1.4 billion he had now wouldn't even last him for a year.
The talisman materials he asked the Xiahou family to prepare for him were worth at least 500 million.
These materials were all used by Shirō Makino to improve the quality of his talismans!
It might not be enough.
Wasn't it extravagant?
He was just a junior Talisman Artist. When he reached the intermediate, senior, or grandmaster level … the consumption of materials would only increase by an astronomical figure.
Therefore, a senior Talisman Artist who was good at one or two kinds of talisman techniques and five or six kinds of talisman techniques, and a Talisman Artist who could enter the realm of senior Talisman Artist was already very great and had a high status in this world!
All kinds?
Was it a joke?
First of all, there were many kinds of talisman techniques. An ordinary Talisman Artist apprentice could name hundreds of them without using his brain.
But where could he find so many talisman techniques?
Talisman techniques weren't cabbages on the street. They could be bought everywhere.
The more advanced the talisman technique was, the rarer it was.
Most of the time, you couldn't buy it even if you had the money!
1.4 billion … It was a huge amount of money, wasn't it?
If you went to the auction house to buy talisman techniques, you would definitely doubt your life and feel like a poor ghost.
Secondly, each kind of talisman technique could only be learned after real understanding.
It was easy to say. But when those talisman techniques were put in front of them, most of the Talisman Artist who were born smarter than others would have a common feeling —
What a painful understanding!
This thing was not like the upper lip touching the lower lip: Oh, I got it …
You would know after learning it.
Super difficult!
It was like a bad student facing advanced mathematics — they hated each other.
Thirdly, even if you got it, you would need to make a lot of talisman techniques to master it …
This process didn't really test your IQ. Anyway, you already knew it. But it was a test of money!
How to buy talisman paper without money? How to buy ink? How to buy talisman pens?
In the world of cultivation, money was the most important thing.
As long as one cultivated, money was always the most important issue.
Without money, it was useless even if you had magic!
Talisman Artist was even more so!
And this was just talisman techniques. Talisman Artist himself was even more expensive!
Talisman Artist had their own spiritual power cultivation techniques. But if you wanted to reach the level of Grandmaster or Great Grandmaster through spiritual power cultivation techniques, it was simply a joke!
It was difficult to reach the advanced level just by relying on cultivation techniques!
There was no treasure to improve spiritual power, unless you were like Shirō Makino, who was extremely talented in spiritual power.
Even being sealed did not hinder his rapid growth.
Let's see if a genius like Zhao Mengning was sealed.
Therefore, the reason why Xiao Bai could grow to where he was today was not because King Qi and his group were stupid. It could only be said that they thought that they had overestimated Xiao Bai's talent, but in fact, they had still greatly underestimated him!
There was an old saying that the poor study while the rich practice martial arts. Here, the poor Spiritual Warriors were the rich Talisman Artist!
Many Spiritual Warriors who did not understand Talisman Artist would definitely be unconvinced. They felt that it would be very expensive for them to cultivate to the advanced level.
But those Spiritual Warriors who had truly come into contact with Talisman Artist and had some understanding would definitely nod without hesitation. Then they would be convinced and say: Compared to Talisman Artist's consumption, we are insignificant … What are we?
This was really the case. Without any family background and no one to support you, even if you had a good spiritual power talent, you would probably only be an Intermediate Talisman Artist in your lifetime.
To be able to become a Senior Talisman Artist in your old age, that was because you were lucky enough!
Otherwise, don't even think about it.
Therefore.
Thank the Xiahou family for making outstanding contributions to the Zulong Empire Talisman Artist's career!
I will definitely remember you in the future!
When I reach the age to write my memoirs, I will definitely give you a generous gift!
Shirō Makino went out feeling refreshed. He went down the stairs and came outside.
He found Yao Qian standing outside, smoking in boredom.
"Done with work?" Yao Qian turned around and asked with a relaxed smile on his face.
"Yes, done." Shirō Makino nodded.
He was very satisfied with Old Yao's current state. This was the right way!
So what if they went deep into the enemy's lair?
Didn't they still obediently give me high-level materials to practice?
Didn't they still respect me and not dare to show any signs of neglect?
Before I cure the patient, who dares to provoke me?
If I'm not happy, I'll scold you!
They even have to bow and apologize politely.
This was such a good treatment!
Why should they be afraid? What was there to be afraid of?
If they really wanted to be afraid, it would not be too late to be afraid after curing the girl.
Furthermore, without any preparation, would they foolishly rush into the enemy's lair to die?
To say that it was a hundred percent foolproof wasn't true.
If that Xiahou Ming was really a ruthless and ruthless person who could use his own daughter as bait to trick Shirō Makino, then he had nothing to say.
But CEO Xiahou should not be able to do that.
There were three reasons.
First, he was a public talisman doctor, and Xiao Bai came openly. Not only did the Sun family know, but the Hundred Flowers City Lord also knew, so it was impossible to hide this matter. Second, according to the information provided by Big Beauty, CEO Xiahou Ming really loved his little daughter!
Among the top-secret information that Big Beauty stole, there were a lot of photos of Xiahou Ming playing with his child, and other information also showed that Xiahou Ming pampered his little daughter to the heavens!
Third, no matter how much Xiahou Ming cared about the organization, he would not let something happen to Shirō Makino in his home.
From his point of view, in the eyes of everyone in their organization, Xiao Bai was a typical Xiao Bai … What could they know?
Not to mention Xiao Bai, even the Sun family behind him was a typical military family. How could they have so many twists and turns?
Playing mind games with them?
That was the difference between a marshal and a soldier!
They had already set up such a big trap, and Xiao Bai jumped into it obediently, so there would naturally be a higher level pit waiting for him to jump into.
Killing people was something that small characters like Wang Er Mazi and other street thugs would do.
Only an ordinary man would spill blood when he was angry.
Big shots liked to play dirty. How could a pure white feather be stained with mud so easily?
Therefore, before Miss Xiahou's illness was cured, he and Old Yao were absolutely safe!
And he would send Old Yao back very soon.
So if I'm not afraid, what are you afraid of?
Fortunately, Old Yao adjusted quickly and was smart enough.
"Want one?" Yao Qian felt that Shirō Makino stood there like a beautiful and exquisite statue, and couldn't help but want to do something to destroy this beauty.
Shirō Makino glanced at him. "Do you want to lead a child astray?"
"Xiao Bai …"
"Hmm?"
"Can you not say that you are a child in the future?"
"Why?"
"Because when you emphasize that you are a child, I have the urge to bang my head against the wall and kill myself."
"Can you compare yourself to me?"
"… …"
There was no point in continuing the conversation, so it was better to remain silent.
Just then, Xiahou Ming arrived. Otherwise, Old Yao would have the urge to turn around and go back to sleep.
"Hahaha …"
Hearty laughter could be heard before he arrived.
Xia Houming strode over to them with large strides.
Beside him, Du Duo 'er had to jog to keep up with him.
From afar, Xiahou Ming stretched out a hand to Shirō Makino. "Genius young man, I've heard a lot about you. Now that I've seen you today, you really live up to your reputation. Haha, not only are you a genius, you are also so handsome. No wonder our Miss Duo 'er couldn't forget you the first time she saw you. "
Du Duo 'er instantly blushed. She thought to herself, I'm not! I didn't! Don't accuse me!
Fine, a little, but I didn't say that!
Shirō Makino also stretched out a hand to shake Xiahou Ming's. At the instant they shook hands, Xiahou Ming's other hand came over and shook it passionately.
F * ck!
Touch me!
Bai Muye retracted his hand and sized up the legendary tycoon in front of him.
He was a middle-aged man who was elegant and handsome. His body was straight, his hair was white, and his eyes were filled with kindness.
He was a big shot in Li Ming City, and he gave off the feeling of a spring breeze.
Was this a new type of bad guy?
If it wasn't for the information that the big beauty had given him, it would be hard for him to believe that this person was a ruthless and ruthless person.
He was the person in charge of the mysterious organization in Li Ming City, and he was in charge of all matters in Li Ming City and the third-class cities under it.
While Shirō Makino was sizing him up, Xiahou Ming was sizing him up as well.
This was the young man who completely wiped out the organization's ultimate power in Hundred Flowers City?
He was really handsome!
Young, rich, confident, and smart.
If it wasn't for this incident, he would really be willing to make friends with this young man.
Investing in the future was something that big shots loved to do.
What a pity …
Xiahou Ming sighed in his heart, and then revealed a scholarly smile, "I'm really sorry for neglecting you, esteemed guest. Some urgent matters happened in the afternoon, and I have to go deal with it."
Shirō Makino had a magnanimous expression, and revealed a standard smile, "Mr. Xiahou, it's normal for a noble person to have many matters to attend to. Why would I blame you? You personally came so late at night, making me feel ashamed as a junior. Logically speaking, I should have taken the initiative to visit you. "
Du Duo 'er hid in the shadows behind Xiahou Ming, and looked at Shirō Makino in shock. She thought to herself,' Are you a devil?
That handsome young man who ridiculed Mr. Xiahou in the afternoon is your twin brother, right? '
"Haha, it's fine. I didn't do my job well. I'll drink as punishment later." Xiahou Ming laughed heartily, "Let's go, I've gotten someone to prepare a banquet here, just the few of us. I know Young Master Bai likes peace and quiet, and no outsiders! "
Xiahou Ming then nodded at Yao Qian, and smiled warmly, "You must be Mr. Yao Qian?"
"You flatter me, I'm Yao Qian." Old Yao didn't hesitate at this crucial moment, and his attitude was neither servile nor overbearing.
"En, thank you for giving my daughter the hope of life! I'll definitely thank you later! "Xiahou Ming said.
"Mr. Xiahou, you're too kind. I'm just Xiao Bai's partner, and I'm helping him to take care of some chores. I don't deserve this kind of praise, and doing these things is what I should do. "Old Yao suddenly felt the importance of the word 'partner' at this moment!
He's really … different from a manager!
Partner?
Xiahou Ming raised his eyebrows slightly, then smiled and extended his hand to shake hands with Yao Qian, and said, "Let's go, let's talk while we eat."
When they arrived at the dining room, Shirō Makino saw a girl sitting at the corner of the dining table.
A word flashed in his mind — Elf!
She wasn't the kind that was particularly beautiful. If you looked at her facial features individually, she could only be described as delicate. However, when the facial features were combined on this face, it gave off a feeling of transcendence.
Her skin was especially white, and her entire body emitted a strong aura of life.
The moment Shirō Makino entered, she raised her head and looked at Shirō Makino with a gentle and weak gaze. Suddenly, she smiled and said softly, "You're really pretty!"
Xiahou Ming looked at his daughter with a strong doting gaze, and he introduced her to Shirō Makino, "Young Master Bai, this is my daughter, Xiahou Ziyue."
Shirō Makino smiled at the girl. "Hello, Miss Ziyue."
