Chapter 48: O Demon Hall
Three days passed just like that.
As Danika had said, Ma Kusi really hadn't come after them again about the smuggler during those three days.
Li Ang was happy to have the peace, after all, for him, grinding professions and skill levels was the most important thing.
"Hoo—"
A long stream of breath flowed out from Li Ang's mouth; he stopped circulating his Qi and opened his eyes.
'Leveled up again.'
【Entry-Level Qi Refiner lv6 (4/600) / Qi Refiner (Three-One) lv4 (246/400)】.
【Attributes: Body Strength 2.8, Spirit Strength 2.7, Energy 17.8】.
Glancing at the information on the panel, Li Ang felt the power that had grown a few notches fuller within his body, and an involuntary smile appeared on his face.
As long as he kept at it steadily, it shouldn't be long before he could max out these two professions; visualizing effort really was incredibly motivating.
And at this point, not much time had passed since he had changed class to 【Qi Refiner (Three-One)】.
'Too bad I still can't maintain the Reverse Birth state like Master does.'
Seeing 【Reverse Birth: Three Layers (Proficient 189/500)】 in the skill bar, Li Ang softly exhaled a breath.
These past few days, whenever he had the chance, he would circulate Reverse Birth: Three Layers, but the experience points still rose extremely slowly.
Of course, the main reason was that he basically hadn't fought any battles recently, causing Reverse Birth: Three Layers to lose a major source of experience, leaving him to slowly grind it out through painstaking effort.
He was starting to miss the experience that had surged wildly when he was killing bugs before.
However, Li Ang now truly suspected that Ma Kusi was the person behind the smuggler; otherwise, why would he have arranged such easy work for them these past few days?
Even Danika's complexion had improved quite a bit, although her dark circles were still severe; Li Ang suspected this had something to do with her profession.
After a simple wash-up, yesterday's words from Ma Kusi at the Public Security Bureau surfaced in Li Ang's mind.
'Speaking of which, the Chief said he was treating everyone at the Bureau to Price's today.'
He had originally thought Ma Kusi was just joking, but he hadn't expected it to be real, and seeing how Danika and the others took it in stride, it seemed this sort of thing happened often.
Li Ang hadn't planned to go at first, but he had never seen what a succubus-run brothel looked like, after all.
Driven by curiosity, he prepared to go and find out for himself.
If the chance arose, writing a "Guide to Evaluating Customs Girls of Exotic Races" wouldn't be out of the question.
Since he didn't have a driver's license, he could only ride in Koel's car.
Danika didn't go; she said she needed to catch up on sleep, but according to Koel, their squad captain had never once been to Price's.
Soon, the car stopped in front of a building lit with pink, suggestive lights, its exterior resembling a palace.
The luxurious front door was coated in gold paint, with scantily clad hostesses standing on either side.
Seeing this scene, Li Ang couldn't help twitching the corner of his mouth: "Over here they act as if nothing's going on."
"After all, the companies under the Cosmic Enterprise Union all have their own security forces."
Koel answered softly, then walked forward somewhat timidly.
Seeing him like this, the bloody scene from the interrogation room a few days ago involuntarily flashed through Li Ang's mind.
At this moment, the hostesses by the door noticed the somewhat shy-looking Koel and immediately came up to greet him: "Mr. Koel, you've arrived."
"Please go right in, Chief Ma Kusi and the others are already inside."
Saying so, the two hostesses flanked Koel on either side.
And so, Li Ang followed Koel all the way into the palace named "Demon Race Specialty Experience Hall - Price's Desire Group."
Just inside the door, an exotic fragrance filled Li Ang's nostrils; he had originally assumed a place like this wouldn't have a particularly good environment.
'Worthy of being a Star River megacorp under the Cosmic Enterprise Union.'
At this moment, a bewitching woman with sheep hooves, a heart-shaped tail, and demon horns also noticed the arrival of the two; she walked forward with a seductive smile and said: "Mr. Koel, and this is...?"
