Chapter 99 - Return to Science and Technology University Laboratory

At Demon City of Fire Country, Fang Yuan was standing in the middle of the city, feeling the people come and go.

His feeling of the city was adding up the people moving around the train station, the number of the people would be more than the people in Chuxin Town.

“The address of the grass arcane realm is in the Fire Country’s Science and Technology University.” Fang Yuan looked at the address in the message. The last time he came to the university was about incubating the gryphon legion, and he even took out the secret formula for the evolution potion to exchange with Dr. Wang. Since he was not in a hurry to challenge grass arcane realm today, he might as well pay Dr. Wang a visit first.

Fang Yuan had already obtained the right to use the laboratory previously, so he could enter the laboratory just by scanning his face. Quite a number of the laboratory staff in the laboratory also knew Fang Yuan. Although this child had only stayed in their laboratory for a few days, but he had left a deep impression on them. More importantly, his secret recipe for the evolution potion and the gryphon legion had directly raised their laboratory’s rating by a notch. The items that they could apply for funding had also increased.

“Is Dr. Wang in?” Fang Yuan had not been granted the authority to enter Dr. Wang’s room yet. He saw a scientist who was resting in the lounge and asked.

A familiar voice then came from behind.

“Isn’t this Fang Yuan? Dr. Wang has gone out to look for the Di Mu Lin leaves today. That’s an important ingredient in the formula for the evolution potion. It must be kept fresh.”

Fang Yuan turned around and saw that it was Liu Xiwen, who had gone against him previously. Ever since he was dumped by the people of the black market, Liu Xiwen had been forgiven by Dr. Wang. Now he was no longer doing evil things. Instead, he was doing management work in the laboratory.

“Hi, Director Liu.”

As Liu Xiwen had repeatedly attempted to plot against Fang Yuan, he didn’t have a good impression of Liu Xiwen.

Liu Xiwen was aware that Fang Yuan was not in favor of him, so he just laughed self-deprecatingly and said, “Fang Yuan, you don’t have to be too hostile towards me. I just want to earn some money, after all, I spent money to enter the laboratory. Now, I think the market value of the evolution potion is much higher than selling pet cubs, so I won’t do that kind of thing again.”

Fang Yuan was actually not interested if Liu Xiwen would still do evil or not. Anyway, if he caused trouble again, he would just beat him up again.

“Why are you looking for Dr. Wang?” Liu Xiwen also did not want to dwell on the topic with Fang Yuan, so he quickly changed the topic and asked Fang Yuan the purpose of his visit.

“I’m going to challenge grass arcane realm soon, but the arcane realm that I’m going to challenge this time is a bit different. I need a grass-type pet beast, and I want to see if Dr. Wang has a suitable grass-type pet beast here.” Fang Yuan said. In Dr. Wang’s laboratory, there were a large number of pet beast cubs with all kinds of attributes. He wanted to see if there were any that he could replenish, because he didn’t have the confidence to just rely on a queen bee.

“Special arcane realm?” Liu Xiwen held his hand and stroked his chin, thinking, “Are you going for the certification of Heavenly Secret Pavilion?”

Fang Yuan was a bit surprised that Liu Xiwen actually knew about Heavenly Secret Pavilion. No matter how he looked at him, Liu Xiwen looked like an ignorant and incompetent hooligan.

Seeing the disdain in Fang Yuan’s eyes, Liu Xiwen smiled bitterly and said, “Hey, after all I am still a professor at Science and Technology University, it’s just that I am not a PhD. I know about domestic education and research.”

“If you want to find a powerful grass-type pet beast from us, I am afraid you will be disappointed, because we only have silver low-grade pet beasts here. You must understand that the pet beasts used for experiments have to be easy to obtain, cheap, and have advantage in all aspects.” Liu Xiwen picked up a mouse with grass growing on its tail and showed it to Fang Yuan.

Fang Yuan was very disappointed. It seemed that he could only go to the pet shop to take a look.

Then Li Xiwen said, “Cough, although it’s not a glorious thing to tell, I used to sell pet beasts to the black market. I know a black market trading point where you should be able to find powerful pet beasts, but the price might be a bit expensive. Do you want to try it?”

“Black market? Are the pet beasts in the black market all obtained by swindle?”

Fang Yuan looked at Liu Xiwen, his eyes were full of disdain.

“You can say that, but in the black market, there are also powerful elite pet beasts captured by trainers from the arcane realms or wilderness. Some have even captured demonized pet beasts. You should be very clear about the strength of demonized pet beasts.”

Liu Xiwen’s words were true. Fang Yuan had fought with demonized pet beasts several times and had accumulated a wealth of experience.

Demonized pet beasts and ordinary pet beasts looked similar from the outside, but the attributes of demonized pet beasts were twice that of ordinary pet beasts.

Liu Xiwen handed Fang Yuan a business card and said, “No. 76 Gu Dang Street is the entrance. Take this business card then only you can enter.” After saying that, he patted Fang Yuan’s shoulder, “Good luck.”

Looking at Liu Xiwen’s back, Fang Yuan remembered something, “Oh yes, your wind and thunder fox.”

“That little guy, I got it from the black market. But it looked very weak, so it didn’t cost much. It was about eight million.” Liu Xiwen said, “It’s in your hands now, right? Take good care of it.”

...

Standing at No. 76 Gu Dang Street, it seemed to be an ordinary pet shop called Sky Pet Market.

“Hello, Sir, are you here to buy pet beast?” The shop assistant saw Fang Yuan swaggering in, looking like a student, not a rich man, so he looked a bit cold.

Fang Yuan asked, “Are you the person in charge here?”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The shop assistant was baffled and looked at Fang Yuan. “I’m Shop Assistant No.1, in charge of guiding you to buy a pet. If you’re looking for the person in charge of our store, he’s sitting at the bar counter right now.”

Fang Yuan nodded and walked directly to the manager at the bar counter. This manager gave him a deep impression because he was a one-eyed man like a pirate. He was also exuding a bandit’s aura unintentionally.

“What’s the matter, little kid? If you want to buy a pet, just look for the shop assistant. There’s a discount item at the door, it’s a bit incomplete, but the price is cheap, you can go and have a look.” Seeing that it was a kid, he lost interest.

Fang Yuan silently put the business card on the bar counter.

The one-eyed boss raised his head and looked at him, “You are...”

“I was introduced by Liu Xiwen.” Fang Yuan didn’t know what their secret code was, so he could only mention Liu Xiwen’s name, after all, this business card was his.

The boss stood up and gestured for Fang Yuan to come behind the bar counter.

He walked in and saw something that looked like a metal manhole cover on the floor. The metal looked very familiar, it was obviously the same type of metal of the cage that he had obtained from the hotel the day before yesterday.

The pet shop was legal, but the black market for pet beasts was prohibited. This was because many people would do everything in their power to seize other people’s powerful pet beasts, which would lead to conflicts and clashes among the trainers. It was not good for Fire Country to maintain a stable order.

However, who would know that right below the pet shop was the pet black market?
