Chapter 91: Awakening the Shadow Transformation Skill

Ye Bai hurriedly took the Little Charcoal Dog into his Pet Beast Space, then rode his e-bike at full speed back to the Breeding House.

The Little Charcoal Dog only felt as if its body had been filled with molten lava.

Its body temperature was extremely high, and the Little Charcoal Dog felt its limbs were as heavy as a thousand jun, unable to be lifted at all.

When Ye Bai returned to the Breeding House and released the Little Charcoal Dog, its body was already covered in Black Flame.

The Little Charcoal Dog's voice had already gone hoarse from crying out.

These Black Flames seemed to have merged with the Little Charcoal Dog's body, inseparable from one another.

If it weren't for the Little Charcoal Dog being a fire-type Pet Beast, it would have been burned alive by the black flames in this short time.

After Ye Bai opened his Insight Eye, he discovered that a Shadow Transformation skill was flickering on the Little Charcoal Dog's skill bar.

"Damn it."

Combined with the information the Little Charcoal Dog had just transmitted to him.

The Little Charcoal Dog had swallowed the crystal core of the Dark Night Mosquito leader.

"Damn it, wasn't the Little Charcoal Dog just summoned? How did it gnaw on the Dark Night Mosquito leader's crystal core?"

"It couldn't have been that the crystal core flew into the Little Charcoal Dog's mouth by itself; that would be complete nonsense."

Ye Bai let out a long sigh; he wouldn't analyze the specific reason, as even if he did, it wouldn't have much meaning—he should save the Little Charcoal Dog first.

The Little Charcoal Dog was currently burning with black flames, looking extremely pained.

A pungent odor wafted from the Little Charcoal Dog's body.

It was already rolling all over the floor in pain.

"At this time, should I inject the Little Charcoal Dog with a sedative?"

Ye Bai secretly pondered this question.

Looking at the black flames on the Little Charcoal Dog, Ye Bai shook his head.

The flames on its body contained high temperatures, and an ordinary syringe couldn't get close to the Little Charcoal Dog at all.

He had to use the kind of high-temperature-resistant syringe developed specifically for fire-type Pet Beasts.

"Sun Flower King, use Floral Fragrance to alleviate the Little Charcoal Dog's pain."

Ye Bai had also discovered by chance that because the Sun Flower King could brew Life Crystal Dew, the floral fragrance it emitted had the effect of calming the mind and spirit.

The Sun Flower King emitted a faint floral scent.

The Little Charcoal Dog felt the severe pain throughout its body begin to subside.

It began to calm its heart and feel the strange changes in its body.

The Little Charcoal Dog felt that its body could turn into a shadow at any moment.

But it was as if an invisible barrier was trapping it.

No matter how hard it tried, it could not successfully turn its body into a Shadow.

The Little Charcoal Dog's condition began to stabilize, and the flames on its body also began to recede.

Ye Bai also saw that the Shadow Transformation skill had formed, but the skill name was gray.

Is it still unusable?

Ye Bai raised his eyebrows, feeling somewhat surprised.

Could it be that this skill has some prerequisites?

So Ye Bai logged into his Dark Web account and searched for the Shadow Transformation skill.

Shadow Transformation: Transform one's own flesh and blood into a shadow, submerge into the shadows to lurk, and be able to attack enemies silently.

This type of skill is a dark-type skill, and generally, only dark-type Pet Beasts can comprehend it.

Seeing this, Ye Bai suddenly realized.

The Little Charcoal Dog currently only had the fire attribute and had not yet awakened the dark attribute, and this skill required the dark attribute to be activated.

Ye Bai continued to check information on the Dark Web; he wanted to know how to make the Little Charcoal Dog awaken the dark attribute in advance.

But the information on the Dark Web was varied and not very comprehensive.

Some people said that letting a Pet Beast swallow dark-attribute crystal cores would, over time, potentially change the Pet Beast's attributes.

Some people said to look for dark-attribute heavenly treasures to subtly change the Pet Beast's attributes.

Others put forward a suggestion that Ye Bai felt was more reliable, which was the dark-attribute Awakening Potion.

Through a dark-attribute Awakening Potion, there is a certain probability of awakening a second attribute.

"If that's the case, I should find a time to send out the roots of the Mandrake King."

Now Ye Bai felt his previous thoughts were a bit naive.

Since he clearly knew through the Information System that the first batch of produced Awakening Potions was the best, he should just ask the Shenhuang Group for this batch of goods.

He was the one in control of the main source of raw materials, so he could bargain with the Shenhuang Group.

Going to be a volunteer was a bit of a waste of time.

As of now, he was not short of money.

The reputation of the Sun Flower Cleaning Company had already been established: efficient, good service attitude, and low prices.

Now, whenever a Beast Tide broke out in Yandong Province, they would definitely hire the Sun Flower Cleaning Company to handle it.

When the Sun Flower cleaned up flesh and blood, it would use the energy from this essence blood to brew Flower Nectar, and the Flower Nectar could then be sold to the Shenhuang Group—it was simply killing two birds with one stone.

Ye Bai found the secret contact email for the Shenhuang Group on the Dark Web.

He sent an email to this address, expressing that he had a batch of Mandrake King roots and the sap secreted by the Mandrake King, and asked if they had any need for them.

If they needed them, he required the first batch of potions produced by the Shenhuang Group (the batch used for clinical trials).

At the same time, he also wanted the Shenhuang Group to help collect the whereabouts of the Dragon-Slaying Sword and the Hell fire.

Ye Bai had these three requests in total.

The email was sent; meanwhile, at the headquarters of the Divine Phoenix Group.

Sophia shed her girl-next-door image; she let her hair down, and several large screens appeared on her desk as she rapidly flipped through various reports and quickly wrote down comments.

Just as she was busy, an email suddenly arrived in her inbox.

She originally did not want to pay attention to it, but she suddenly discovered that it had been sent from the secret email address she kept on the Dark Web, a secret email address that no one else knew about.

Sophia clicked on the email as if possessed, and the very first sentence made her pupils constrict.

【By: I have a batch of high-quality root fibers of the King of Mandragora on hand, as well as the sap that flowed from it; I wonder if you are interested.】

【My conditions are very simple. First, I need the first batch of Awakening Potion you produce (the clinical batch; do not try to deceive me with inferior products), unless you do not want the fresh root fibers of the King of Mandragora anymore.】

【Second, I need you to collect Dragon-Slaying Swords. They must be Dragon-Slaying Swords with silver-white blades. Keep the Dragon-Slaying Swords you collect; the more the better. Once you have collected enough, I will come to retrieve them.】

【Third, I want the whereabouts of the Hell fire.】

【I only have these three conditions. If you are willing to accept, just reply with an "ok." Within three days, you will receive the root fibers of the King of Mandragora.】

Sophia's fingers tapped on the desk; it seemed this person had quite a bit of stock, which was why they dared to trade with her.

At this moment, Sophia pressed the red button on the desk, and the butler walked out from behind the door.

"Miss Sophia, do you have any instructions?"

The butler asked respectfully.

"Notify the people in the IT department to come to my office—never mind, I'll go there myself."

Sophia closed her laptop and followed the butler out of the office.

It was not that she hadn't considered hiring a secretary, but her butler was an old man who had served her for a long time.

Moreover, he was proficient in eight foreign languages and was hailed as the axis of the United Nations.

Plus, the butler was unwilling to step down from the position of secretary, so Sophia simply let the old butler continue to work.

During the time Sophia was heading down, the old butler had already delivered the instructions.

A group of big shots from the IT department were already waiting in the IT department.

"Chairwoman, Chairwoman."

When the elevator door opened, a group of people bowed to Sophia.

When your monthly salary is three thousand, the chairwoman is not worth me bending my waist.

When your monthly salary is thirty thousand, the chairwoman is my foster father.

When your monthly salary is one hundred thousand, Chairwoman, you are my god!

And the benefits at the Divine Phoenix Group were famously good.

They never forced employees to work overtime, so when the big shots of the IT department heard that the chairwoman needed them, they were so moved they were about to shed tears.

"Help me check the origin of this email sent to me, and see if you can trace the specific location."

Sophia provided an email address.

The big shots of the IT department immediately tapped on their keyboards, and soon they discovered it was sent from the Dark Web.

Afterward, their faces turned sour.

"President, we do not have the technology to breach the Dark Web's firewall."

"Anyone inside the Dark Web who can find this private email address of yours is basically one of the top ten hackers in the world."

Because this email address was set up by hiring a top-twenty hacker, only a hacker in the global top ten could breach the Dark Web's firewall and find this private email address.

"President, you might as well trust him; the top ten hackers in the world would not deign to set a trap to deceive you."

These IT big shots gave their answer.

Sophia thought for a moment; she did not speak, but silently walked away.

These IT big shots, who were usually so arrogant, were sweating silently, thinking they could solve the president's problem.

As it turned out, their amateur skills were not even worth mentioning in front of a top-tier global hacker.

"Miss, would you like me to use people from the Dark Web to investigate?"

The butler looked at Sophia's silent expression and asked kindly.

"No need, that's too much trouble; just do as he requested."

"Dragon-Slaying Swords—I remember we have several collected at home, all treated as decorations. What on earth does this guy want with these things?"

"Butler, help me look up the uses of a Dragon-Slaying Sword; I need to evaluate its value before I can give an answer."

"Anyway, that guy also said that as long as I reply with an 'ok,' he can get the items to me within three days."

"By the way, this email is linked to my private phone; notify me urgently as soon as an email arrives."

Sophia issued a series of instructions.

At this moment, another email was sent over.

【By: By the way, by the way, you are limited to replying before twelve o'clock tonight.】

【You should know, I don't absolutely need you!!!】

Sophia felt a chill down her spine; she felt as if this person had installed surveillance around her, to have guessed her thoughts.

It's here, it's here, please vote, please vote.
