Chapter 200: The scourge has been unleashed...
In the end, Li Muyang accepted Liu Dawei's invitation.
Well, I had no choice but to join in the fun.
The main problem is that even Liu Dawei himself didn't realize that Gotham, a place full of talented people, is a place where everyone is a genius!
After all, regardless of the internal situation, when it comes to external communication, those in the know understand!
If Li Muyang didn't have the advantage of foresight, he probably wouldn't have thought there was any danger in this trip.
It's just business; even if things don't go well, there shouldn't be any danger, right? Especially since it's a large corporation like Wayne! Liu Dawei, confident in his Nascent Soul Realm cultivation, was still somewhat self-assured! At least in other countries, firearms were still the primary weaponry!
Unbelievable self-confidence!
What could Old Li say? He shouldn't try to persuade him.
Let’s talk about it then.
Even if they were to go, they would definitely have to wait until Li Muyang had basically finished dealing with the company's affairs.
It seems we've come back to the issue of finding talent!
Our own world is a bit unreliable, we still need to recruit talent from other worlds!
But not before that.
"Boss Goose! Let's have a lucky draw!"
"Honey~ It's all ready for you~"
Swish swish!
The 3W Origin Point was smashed down.
I won't mention the useless stuff (mainly because the author can't remember the numbers).
The purple-quality item dropped several good items. First, there were four valuable Devil Fruits: the Glint-Glint Fruit, the Dark-Dark Fruit, the Storm-Storm Fruit, and the Rumble-Rumble Fruit.
It can be said that the goods have been shipped!
Then there wasn't much of value left, just a bunch of random weapons and materials. Li Muyang threw them into the warehouse, letting whoever needed them choose.
For example, Escanor's one-handed axe was given away again.
However, with so many usable Devil Fruits already, Li Muyang was quite satisfied.
By the way, why are there so many Devil Fruits in the prize pool?
"Hehe, host, guess how cheap this thing is at cost?" Goose chuckled and teased, "There are only three steps to making these things: find a fruit, integrate a trace of the corresponding law, and the Devil Fruit is successfully made."
"It's easy to make and really works! My boss has set up several production lines to manufacture all kinds of Devil Fruits. Otherwise, where would we get so many purple-quality rewards? It's just that most people only eat one, except for a few employees. And you can't accumulate these. Even if you cleanse away the flaws, eating more won't cause any qualitative change."
"The key point is still whether the Devil Fruit power you consume is suitable for you and whether you can unleash its full potential. There was an employee of the Bureau who gradually consumed countless Devil Fruits, but as a result, his talent was limited, and he could only use one power at a time. Although it can be considered a means of expansion, it did not provide any substantial help to his combat power."
Li Muyang was speechless for a moment, but he had to admit that what Goose said made a lot of sense.
Another issue is that this prize pool feels like it's being given away to people! The four fruits all correspond to Bai Yuxiu and Feng Ling'er, who contributed to this trip.
In any case, Li Muyang had no interest in these four fruits. The Glint-Glint Fruit? The Dark-Dark Fruit? Are they as useful as Li Muyang's Chaos Power? He can now completely transform his entire body into chaos, and whether it's movement or anything else, he is at the top level among all the elements.
Chaos can evolve into all things, so if Li Muyang can transform into chaos, he can naturally evolve into any state.
The Storm-Storm Fruit, which seems to have never appeared in the original storyline, and Enel's Rumble-Rumble Fruit, well, they're just average too.
Even if the two women were given the Devil Fruits, they would only be able to comprehend the effects of the laws within them. Right now, they both possess the protective authority of the Envoy! And it's an authority that's perfectly suited to their abilities. Two Devil Fruits for each of them would only be icing on the cake.
Following Li Muyang, Bai Yuxiu and Feng Ling'er's horizons and talents were greatly broadened!
The two girls took the Devil Fruits, and although they didn't refuse, they were blushing and a little embarrassed, though they didn't know what they were thinking... They felt they had taken too many and couldn't possibly repay them.
They hadn't realized how precious the protective stones were until they experienced them firsthand. They understood that these were far more valuable than the ordinary selection tickets Li Muyang had mentioned! Now he was giving them fruits containing laws... They couldn't possibly know how much they could possibly know!
"Ugh... I guess I'll just have to give Yu Xiu to Old Li instead~" Feng Ling'er said with a wry smile. But when she turned her head, Bai Yu Xiu was blushing and didn't refute her. Feng Ling'er panicked. Could this attitude mean she was admitting it?
Or... I should just do it myself!
But this bad guy doesn't seem to be interested in beautiful women!
Besides, I don't even know how to seduce someone.
Seriously! Can't men be a little more proactive?
As Li Muyang checked the prize pool, he inexplicably felt a surge of resentment and looked up in bewilderment.
What's wrong? You don't like the fruit?
Yeah, I'll never get over the fact that Devil Fruits taste bad!
The two women hadn't realized the seriousness of the situation; how bad could this fruit possibly taste... Ugh!
"Ugh... ugh... ugh..." Feng Ling'er gagged violently, her face turning pale. She had foolishly taken a huge gulp, and now she was filled with regret.
"...WTF! What is this thing?! It looks like juice squeezed out of the intestines of a fresh cow, from who knows where...the stomach and intestines...Did this bull drink a pot of soup made with licorice and isatis root? And it was still warm after it went in, and then it was made to regurgitate it...It's both soft and hard...This can be called fruit?!"
Li Muyang (^_?): "6, such a detailed description? Did you actually eat it yourself?"
Speaking of licorice tablets... does Fengling Yuxiu World even have this stuff? Isatis root is acceptable, after all, it's a herbal medicine.
Feng Ling'er rolled her eyes listlessly: "I saw a food blogger with pica's review, but it also reflects my feelings right now! I would never eat it a second time!"
Li Muyang(￣ェ￣；):......
He silently pointed to another one.
Feng Ling'er's face paled even more. After a struggle with her thoughts, she weakly waved her hand, "Let me...slowly catch my breath...I really...can't eat anymore...sob~"
With Feng Ling'er in such a state, Bai Yuxiu need not say more. She has lost all the refinement of a well-bred young lady, and her expression is as if she has been ruined by being played with in the mortal world. Her eyes are lifeless, and she slumps on the ground, motionless, with no will to live.
What a great opportunity... Ugh! What are you thinking? Don't you understand what a gentleman does? How can you take advantage of someone in distress?
Li Muyang gently patted Bai Yuxiu's back to help her calm down. Yuxiu probably never imagined that there could be such a bizarre and unpalatable thing in the world.
Hmm, Li Muyang had a feeling that the Devil Fruits produced by the Administration Bureau had some personal touches from the big boss! They might be even more unpalatable than the originals!
A certain big boss ╮(︶﹏︶)╭: I didn't know! I bought this production line from a friend! Anyway, it's not like I'm eating it myself... Hehehe~ No pain, no gain!
It's quite easy to adapt to the fruit; the effects are immediate the first time you eat it, and you can clearly see the results after just one bite.
Bai Yuxiu ate the Glint-Glint Fruit first, and Feng Ling'er ate the Thunder-Thunder Fruit first. Soon, the two girls transformed into a flash of light and a bolt of lightning, darting around in the sky.
Li Muyang continued to examine and study the remaining rewards.
Two gold rewards.
A complete guide to practicing the Ultimate Freedom Technique.
A... Thunder General's cooking skills (enhanced version! Everything he cooks becomes inedible! Extremely unpalatable! So unpalatable that it can be perceived as unpalatable by people of all species!).
Li Muyang ψ(｀?′)ψ: "WC?! Are you kidding me? What use would I have for this skill?!"
Old Li's cooking skills were already pretty good, so if he learns this skill, wouldn't it be a pure negative improvement?
After studying it for a long time, Li Muyang reluctantly threw the skill into the trash.
Because... compared to the disadvantages of this skill, Li Muyang really couldn't think of any advantages!
I'd even be willing to accept that the food I made was so bad it made me want to vomit—the problem is, it just tastes bad! A concept-based skill that only makes the food taste bad! There are no other benefits! And this effect might never be removed!
Damn it! Pure debuff!
"Now I understand why the Administration has so many employees who can't quickly become stronger!" Li Muyang almost laughed out of exasperation! This kind of conceptual skill is completely useless!
Anyone else might have used it! Maybe even used it to annoy people, but Li Muyang was extremely resistant to it! This skill was really too useless for him!
Furthermore... it's best to keep someone around you who possesses this skill! Seal it up! Seal it completely!
Goose was used to it: "Calm down. Compared to the passive ability of being a human skis, I feel this ability is at least somewhat useful, right? It's very good at annoying people! And who knows, it might even evolve in the future!"
Li Muyang (-i_-): "Hmm~ Forget it. I used to think my bottom line was very low, but now I realize that I still have a bottom line. At least I don't want to waste the cooking skills I've worked so hard to develop over the past ten years because of this skill!"
Because it tastes bad? Who has nothing better to do than compare whose food is the worst? Which chef has gone mad? Especially since Li Muyang is practically a food enthusiast!
Besides, this tastes awful and doesn't have any vomiting-inducing effects. Even if it did, wouldn't Li Muyang poison it?
If this skill, aside from being unpalatable, could enhance the effects of food, Li Muyang wouldn't be so resistant! The problem is, it's completely useless!
I'm sorry, goodbye! You have a great skill, but we're not a good match! Let's pretend we never met!
Li Muyang directly recycled the system for Origin Points! This damned trading mechanism is so ruthless! A reward of gold quality! It's only 30% of what it cost to exchange!
What a huge loss! I wasted a small safety net opportunity!
"Be content, host. You've drawn so many times and only wasted one small guaranteed reward, drawing a completely unusable golden reward. You're already the luckiest of the lucky! The ultimate, invincible, supreme lucky one! If your other colleagues knew about this, they'd probably drown you in their spittle!" Goose Boss comforted him with a smile.
