"Sure," Zhou Wen said with a nod.
After all, he hadn't suffered any losses from the previous incident. The ones who had suffered were Gao Yang and Su Mei, so there was naturally nothing that couldn't be resolved.
Gao Yang was very happy to hear that. He directly pushed the door open and walked into the courtyard. As he walked, he said, "There's another reason why I came to find you this time. Let me introduce them to you. These three are my classmates from the academy and are also your seniors. This is Hui Haifeng. You've just entered the academy, so you might not have heard of this name. However, once you get familiar with the academy, you will definitely hear of this name."
"Zhou Wen, hello." Hui Haifeng extended his hand in a friendly manner.
"Hello, I'm gaming. Get straight to the point." Zhou Wen was controlling the blood-colored avatar to fight in the Ant Nest. There were Vigor Ants everywhere like a tidal wave, so he couldn't divert his attention to shake Hui Haifeng's hand. It wasn't that he was being disrespectful.
Gao Yang and the other two were clearly displeased, but Hui Haifeng didn't mind at all. He said with a smile, "I saw the video of you battling the blood-patterned Buddha Heart Lotus. It's really impressive, especially your judgment and commanding skills. They truly astonished me. It's as though you can predict the future. The only pity is that something happened to your teammate, preventing you from slaying the blood-patterned Buddha Heart Lotus."
Noticing that Zhou Wen had no intention of continuing, Hui Haifeng continued, "I'm here to invite you to join our team to slay the blood-patterned Buddha Heart Lotus."
"Not interested." Zhou Wen was already rather familiar with the blood-patterned Buddha Heart Lotus. He believed that it wouldn't take long for him to slay it in-game without taking any risks.
Gao Yang persuaded, "Zhou Wen, reconsider. Hui Haifeng is much stronger than Li Xuan. These two are also Legendary experts ranked in the top twenty in our school. If you join them in killing the blood-patterned Buddha Heart Lotus, it's almost certain that you will succeed. You won't need to take too much risk. It can be said that there are only benefits and no disadvantages."
"Sorry, I'm really not interested." Zhou Wen shook his head once again.
Now, he was grinding the Ant Nest dungeon with all his might, hoping to have a Companion Egg drop to feed the Silver-Winged Flying Ant. For this, he didn't even head to the lotus pond. Instead, he chose Ant Nest, which had more dimensional creatures. He didn't have the time to kill the blood-patterned Buddha Heart Lotus with Hui Haifeng and company.
However, on careful thought, he felt that what Xu Miantu had said was right. In a place like Sunset College, he needed to showcase his strength to obtain more opportunities.
However, Zhou Wen didn't need these opportunities at all. Instead, these opportunities would affect his gaming and become an obstacle.
Gao Yang was somewhat unhappy. He viewed Zhou Wen in a different light because Hui Haifeng admired him greatly. He couldn't tell how strong Zhou Wen was.
Hui Haifeng patted Gao Yang on the shoulder, making him swallow his words. Then, he looked at Zhou Wen and said, "How about this? I'll hire you to help us slay the blood-patterned Buddha Heart Lotus. If you have any requests, you can raise them."
Just as Zhou Wen was about to reject them and quickly send them away so that he could game in peace, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind. He looked up at Hui Haifeng and asked, "Any condition?"
"That depends on whether it's worth it," Hui Haifeng said with a smile.
"You can hire me, but I want a Legendary Companion Egg." Zhou Wen directly stated his request.
He had grinded Ant Nest all day and killed countless Vigor Ants. If he was lucky, one Companion Egg would drop. If he was unlucky, he wouldn't even get one. It was barely enough to feed the Silver-Winged Flying Ant.
If he fed the Silver-Winged Flying Ant a Legendary Companion Egg, it might be able to grow faster. It might not starve it so quickly.
Gao Yang was somewhat displeased when he heard that. "Zhou Wen, aren't you asking for too much? The chances of a Companion Egg dropping from the blood-patterned Buddha Heart Lotus aren't high to begin with. Aren't you making things difficult for us by asking for a Legendary Companion Egg now? "
"That's my price. If you want something cheaper, you can find someone else," Zhou Wen said without looking up as he gamed.
Gao Yang was about to say something when Hui Haifeng beat him to it. "A Legendary Companion Egg isn't a problem. What type do you want?"
"Anything is fine." Zhou Wen only used it as food. He didn't have any special requirements for its type.
"Alright, I can give it to you tonight. Can you come with us to the lotus pond tomorrow?" Hui Haifeng said without hesitation.
Zhou Wen finally looked up at Hui Haifeng and said, "Sure, but I have another condition."
"Zhou Wen, don't go overboard," Gao Yang said unhappily.
"It's fine. Go ahead." Hui Haifeng's expression didn't change as though he thought nothing of it.
"If I go, everyone has to obey my commands. Before taking action, I need to have a detailed understanding of the Companion Beasts you will be using. If you are going into battle yourself, I need to know your combat standards and Primordial Energy Skills," Zhou Wen said.
"No problem." Hui Haifeng agreed readily.
"Also, I won't be fighting personally like last time. I'll only be in charge of commanding," Zhou Wen added.
"What I fancy is your commanding ability. There's no need for you to take the risk," Hui Haifeng said with a smile.
"Deal. When will my Legendary Companion Egg be delivered?" Zhou Wen lowered his head and continued gaming.
"Eight in the evening." Hui Haifeng thought for a moment before giving a time.
After discussing the details, Hui Haifeng and Gao Yang left. On the way, Gao Yang said unhappily, "Haifeng, I really can't tell. Is Zhou Wen really as important as you make him out to be? We have already watched the video of his battle with the blood-patterned Buddha Heart Lotus many times. We already know what to do. With our strength, we can easily kill the blood-patterned Buddha Heart Lotus ourselves. Why would we need to spend so much money to hire him? “
"Seeing and doing are two different things. Besides, we only saw a portion of it. We still don't know if the blood-patterned Buddha Heart Lotus has any other tricks up its sleeve."
"We don't know, and neither does Zhou Wen. What's the use of having him?" Gao Yang still couldn't figure it out.
"I have a nagging feeling that Zhou Wen is somewhat different. Just treat it as buying insurance," Hui Haifeng said with a smile.
At eight in the evening, someone indeed delivered a Legendary Companion Egg. At the same time, there was an agreement. After Zhou Wen saw that there was nothing wrong with it, he signed the agreement and accepted the Legendary Companion Egg.
After closing the door and returning to the cultivation room, Zhou Wen took out the Legendary Companion Egg from the box. At the same time, he summoned the Silver-Winged Flying Ant. He wanted to see how the Silver-Winged Flying Ant could devour a Companion Egg in real life.
When the Silver-Winged Flying Ant saw the Companion Egg, it flew over and opened its strange mouth. It bit the Companion Egg and sucked, instantly sucking it dry until only its outer layer was left.
