Ignoring the clickbait headlines, Gao Peng clicked on the third piece of news.
This piece of news was published by the Chang 'an City News Publishing Firm. The content was very official, but this kind of news was not too subjective.
Gao Peng scanned through it carefully. The general content was that a very dangerous monster had suddenly appeared in the Dark Ember Forest. It was very destructive and liked to store food.
Unlike pythons that were too lazy to move once they were full, the newly appeared Brutal Gray Devil Spider hunted in large amounts and used silk cocoons to tie up their prey. Therefore, the threat it posed was much higher than other monsters. Fortunately, the government evacuated the residents in the area in time, so there were not many casualties …
The news also briefly mentioned the private garden. The large number of Brutal Gray Devil Spiders had caused a lot of property damage. Currently, the Chang 'an City Government was actively investigating the Brutal Gray Devil Spider's areas of activity and habits, thinking of ways to deal with it. At the same time, they advised the public to stay away from the Dark Ember Forest and wait for the government to solve the problem.
Finally, there was a threat rating: three stars.
This level was not low. Last year, when a Lord-level monster approached the Chang 'an City area, the threat level was only four stars.
It seemed that he would not be able to buy Yin Cedar Needles in the city for the time being. This incident also reminded Gao Peng that if he wanted to buy materials in the future, it would be better to buy them all at once. Otherwise, it would be easy to be embarrassed if an accident happened.
Previously, Gao Peng thought that if he bought too many at once, it would not be easy to store them. His fridge was only so big. A few dozen pounds was still okay, but if it was a few hundred pounds, the fridge would not be able to store them.
Leaving the bedroom, Dumb was still diligently eating pine needles in the living room. If he could take a picture and compare it, he would be able to see that Dumb's body was a lot thicker than two weeks ago. The originally greyish white bones were now tinged with a bit of silver, looking tougher.
Da Zi was still curled into a ball and hiding in the corner. Gao Peng observed for a while and found that there was no problem, so he turned around and went into the kitchen.
"Let's have seaweed and pork ribs soup tonight." Gao Peng was ready to show off his skills. This was his specialty.
Not long after, the kitchen was filled with the rich aroma of soup. The fragrance wafted out and into the living room.
Da Zi, who was lying on the floor, suddenly swayed its soft feelers a few times. its eyes were still closed, but its body could not help but crawl towards the kitchen …
Bang …
Da Zi, who was walking with his eyes closed, bumped into the leg of a table. He opened his eyes in a daze and continued to crawl towards the kitchen.
Their short legs swayed as they walked into the kitchen. They raised their heads and looked at their master who was cooking.
"Hiss!"
"Hungry!"
Two voices sounded in Gao Peng's Sea of Consciousness.
"Soon, almost done." Gao Peng habitually answered. Suddenly, he realized that this guy had finished evolving?
He turned around and saw that Da Zi's stats had finally changed from [Excellent] to [Perfect].
Da Zi's appearance didn't look much different from before. Gao Peng took a closer look. Other than the additional golden patterns on the antennae on its head, there were no other changes.
After dinner, Gao Peng received a call from Liu Senlin, the general manager of Blue Shield. "I'm sorry to disturb you so late at night, Mr. Gao," Liu Senlin apologized over the phone.
"It's okay. I'm not sleeping right now, so I didn't disturb you." Gao Peng muted the TV and asked, "Is there something urgent, Manager Liu?"
"Yes. I'm not sure if Mr. Gao has time tonight." Liu Senlin tried to suppress his tone, but Gao Peng could still hear the anxiety in his voice.
Gao Peng looked up at the clock in the living room. It was only eight o 'clock. "I'm free." There was nothing to be said about working for someone else's money.
"Then I'll have to trouble you." Liu Senlin seemed to be relieved.
Not long after, a black MPV came to Gao Peng's downstairs to pick him up. Liu Senlin was also in the car.
"Uh, Manager Liu, why are you early today?" Gao Peng asked curiously.
"Mr. Gao, do you know about the Brutal Gray Devil Spider that was recently discovered in the Dark Ember Forest?"
"Yes, I know about it." Gao Peng nodded.
"Since Mr. Gao knows about it, then I won't explain it in detail. The government has gathered many security companies and private organizations to explore the Brutal Gray Devil Spider's habits and weaknesses. Our company has just received the mission today and will be leaving in three days. So I'd like to ask Mr. Gao to take a look at the Devil Mantises in advance. If a few Devil Mantises can be upgraded before we leave, our mission's success rate will be higher. Of course, it doesn't matter if they can't be upgraded. Anyway, we'll have to trouble you." Liu Senlin said seriously.
"I remember that the government didn't allow private organizations and security companies to be involved in these missions." Gao Peng was a little surprised. In the past, the government didn't allow organizations and security companies to be involved in these missions in order to maintain stability. These missions were completed by the military.
"The Union Government held a meeting a few days ago. This time, they reformed many things and abolished many rules." Liu Senlin sighed. "From now on, I'm afraid the direction of the Union will change. In the past, the Union Government intentionally or unintentionally suppressed the growth of organizations and companies. However, in recent years, the changes in the monsters have made the government more and more tired of dealing with them. So this time, they've opened up many policies."
As the general manager of the security company, Liu Senlin was naturally happy to see this situation.
Not long after, the car stopped in front of a large building. He got out of the car and walked into the building. On the first floor, there were two security guards in blue standing on either side of the door. Beside them stood two Devil Mantises, like two statues.
Behind the building, there was a large square that had also been contracted. High walls were erected on three sides, covered by electric fences.
At a rough glance, the square was densely packed with hundreds of Devil Mantises. The atmosphere in the air was extremely solemn.
"All the Devil Mantises in the company are here." Liu Senlin nodded.
Gao Peng stepped forward and looked at the densely packed data frames. He filtered through them one by one and finally chose ten Devil Mantises.
"These ten will do."
"Mr. Gao has good eyes!" Liu Senlin gave him a thumbs-up. These ten were the best Devil Mantises in the company.
"I'll write down the materials on a piece of paper. Prepare them as soon as possible. If you hurry, three days should be enough." Gao Peng said calmly.
"Okay."
In a flash, Gao Peng wrote down the required materials on a piece of white paper and handed it to Liu Senlin. Liu Senlin glanced at it briefly and did not dare to delay. He hurriedly sent people to purchase the materials overnight. Even if it was at a premium, he had to prepare all the materials within an hour.
After being in Chang 'an City for so long, Liu Senlin had his own network of contacts. With the help of his connections, he quickly gathered all the materials.
"Mr. Gao, all the materials have been gathered." Liu Senlin's forehead was dripping with sweat.
He was nervous and uneasy.
Gao Peng did not turn around. He carefully put on his gloves and mask.
