Chapter 421: Chapter 421
Seeing Sikong Lin looking bewildered, Qian Qi waved his hand dismissively, "It’s fine, come in."
"I’ve come to discuss something with you." Sikong Lin walked in and got straight to the point, "Su Xingchen has already told me about the matter of S-Class spiritual power."
Although Qian Qi didn’t elaborate, Sikong Lin and Su Xingchen, through speculation, were almost certain that Guardian Beast abilities were related to spiritual power. Therefore, if one wanted to form a contract with an A-level Magical Beast, their spiritual power must be above A-level.
In the current world, although S-Class Spiritual Awakened are very rare, there are quite a few ordinary people with S-Class spiritual power. If they could all form contracts with A-level Magical Beasts, imagine the powerful Beast Taming Army that could be formed.
At that time, when facing S-Class Magical Beasts, perhaps there would be more assurance!
And if National Beast Taming is the inevitable trend of future development, then being the first to take control of S-Class Spiritual Power Users as one’s own will be the foundation for standing in a dominant position after the major societal power shift in the future!
It can be said that with Qian Qi’s casual hint, the Su Family and the Sikong family will inevitably survive the future major reshuffle!
Seeing Sikong Lin’s excited and grateful expression, Qian Qi scratched his ear indifferently, "Don’t thank me, I’m just simply supporting the powers I’m close to."
When navigating through society, wealth, background, and relationships must be at least one of them. She is so flamboyant without a background and easily goes bankrupt, so she naturally takes the initiative to make good relations with certain forces, borrowing strength when necessary.
Sikong Lin’s icy face smiled like a chrysanthemum, adopting a tone of ’I understand you’re just tough on the outside but soft inside,’ saying, "Surely it also has something to do with my son, since you two have a good relationship." Follow current novᴇls on novęlfire.net
He still remembered previously telling Qian Qi to stay away from Sikong Wang, and Qian Qi responded sarcastically, so he’s trying hard to make amends.
Qian Qi glanced at him sideways, saying nothing more.
Sikong Lin already regarded Qian Qi as family, after all, she saved his wife and son and even helped greatly, trusting Qian Qi with all his heart, "I’ve already started secretly searching for S-Class Spiritual Power Users, sending support and internship offers to those still in school, and setting up those not in school under Sikong family companies. If you need anything, you can always come directly to me, or my son."
He would also inform Sikong Wang about these matters, considering he trained Sikong Wang to be the true person in charge, and thus all matters of the Si Family would be meticulously sent to Sikong Wang.
Qian Qi nodded, "What about Su Xingchen?"
Sikong Lin paused, taking a moment to realize Qian Qi was asking: you’ve assimilated the ordinary S-Class individuals, what about Su Xingchen?
In matters involving interests, even brothers could turn against each other instantly. Even if there are many S-Class individuals, their numbers are limited, inevitably involving allocation issues.
Qian Qi wanted to know how the Su Family and the Sikong family were distributing, and to what extent they could unify.
Sikong Lin looked at Qian Qi with a very complicated expression, after a moment of silence, he shook his head, "He didn’t say, only instructed me to quickly gather."
Qian Qi’s pupils shrunk slightly, after a while, she silently nodded.
Perhaps she knew what the answer was.
"However, what do you plan to do next?" Sikong Lin, having not received further plans from Su Xingchen, intended to ask Qian Qi.
"What else, naturally..." Qian Qi was about to brush it off, when Sikong Lin’s Light Brain started vibrating rapidly, seemingly with many messages. He glanced at it, quickly furrowing his brows.
Immediately followed by knocking on the door, "Family Head! Something big has happened!"
Sikong Lin got up to open the door, and as soon as the Commander rushed in, he urgently reported, "War Zones in Song City, Qi City, Huang City, Yuan City have successively broken out into A-level Magic Beast Tides. Not only that, various levels of ground dungeons nationwide have started becoming unstable, fear they will erupt soon!"
Instances that have been stable for decades or even a century suddenly erupting altogether, such anomalies make it hard not to have ominous forebodings.
Does this mean the S-level dungeon is growing increasingly unstable too?
Sikong Lin turned to look at Qian Qi.
Qian Qi immediately narrowed her little eyes warily, "Look at me for what, I only handle underground matters."
Those words, as if she’d like King Yan, just taking care of underground affairs.
"Alright, I shall take my leave first then." Sikong Lin nodded, hurriedly left along with the Commander.
Qian Qi closed the door, returned to sit at the wooden table.
She rolled up her sleeves, munching on cookies while sipping hot water, the room instantly quieted, with only the sound of chewing remaining.
An hour later, Qian Qi rummaged through her combat bag and took out the Blast Flame Gun given by Nangong Yan, started dismantling and researching it. After taking it halfway apart, not sure whether she broke it or set off an anti-dismantle security mechanism, and the gun exploded, leaving Qian Qi’s face covered in soot.
After tidying up the mess on the table, she took a shower, squatting in the bathroom for another half an hour. By this time, two hours had passed, she waited a bit but didn’t see what she was waiting for, then began taking off her shoes and climbing into bed.
Once nestled into her little blanket, Qian Qi tucked her hands and feet warmly inside the covers, comfortably closed her eyes.
The next second, her face received a slap.
The system grumbled: [Alright, alright, I admit defeat, happy now?]
It thought Qian Qi would immediately ask it what was going on with the sudden outbreak of these ground dungeons, but unexpectedly it waited so long without a word!
Damn it, she’s really got patience!
Qian Qi touched the slapped face, "If you slap me, you can’t ask for my money~"
System: [...] She truly went shameless for money physically, huh!
[Forget it, this issue isn’t worth much anyway!] The system quickly convinced itself, [The precursor to the eruption of the S-level dungeon is precisely the eruption of a large number of ground dungeons first.]
"Then..." Qian Qi stroked her chin, pondering and asking, "How many S-level dungeons will erupt, and how many S-Class Magical Beasts will appear?"
[I don’t know.] An expression of helplessly shrugging appeared on the system’s panel, [I can only detect dungeon fluctuations within a certain distance.]
Qian Qi contemplated something with lowered eyes, but the system interrupted her, [Don’t bother, bringing me for a full search is impossible.]
Even knowing what to do, humanity currently has no weapon or capability to resist S-Class Magical Beasts, knowing or not knowing, all routes lead to death.
Better to actually use this time for preparation.
[Qian Qi, the time we have left, isn’t much.]
If the first wave of S-Class Magical Beasts can’t be dealt with, human civilization will fall further behind, agricultural, industrial, military, and other advancements will be disrupted by mass slaughter, and will humanity have another hundred years of peace to develop again?
The answer will certainly be no.
The stars have long been breaking apart, under the mercy of Star God leaving a breathing room, if humanity still can’t become strong, they will be like those vanishing stars, leaving no trace of existence.
Qian Qi sat up from the bed.
She sighed lightly, "If that’s the case, then we shall begin."
