"..."
Liu Feng's expression froze. It seemed to make some sense.
Qin Tian glanced at him, a strange smile appearing at the corner of his mouth. He asked at the same time,
"Besides us, does anyone else know?"
"Uh... Sister Fang Si and Ah Liang know a little..."
Chen Shu thought for a moment and said.
He had provided his friends with some system-generated potions before, also to enhance their strength a bit.
Ah Liang and the others spent their days with him, and they knew each other very well. Moreover, their strength was not as good as his, so Chen Shu still felt he could control the situation.
"Just them?"
Qin Tian touched his chin. He believed in Chen Shu's friends.
Chen Shu nodded and said, "Minister, can you customize a mission for me now?"
"Of course!"
Chen Qinghai quickly nodded. This could enhance the combat power of China's top experts, and the contribution was immense.
He asked the crucial question: "Can you configure any potion?"
King-level powerhouses all had five contracted spirits with various attributes, so corresponding potions were naturally needed.
"Most of the common ones."
Chen Shu thought for a moment and said.
His potion illustration book was not fully unlocked yet, but it was basically enough.
"Good!"
Chen Qinghai nodded and said,
"We need to discuss the specific mission content and rewards first, and I'll give you the news tomorrow."
For such a major event, he couldn't make a decision alone and naturally had to inform the Director-General Gu Lan of Long Yuan.
"No problem."
Chen Shu nodded and said, "Actually, my requirements aren't high. Just give me some golden medicinal materials, true treasures, or king-level skills, and I'm not picky."
"..."
Chen Qinghai turned to look at him, thinking, "Do you think these are common cabbage..."
Resources of this level had a positive effect even on King-level powerhouses, and they were quite rare even in the official treasury.
However, upon closer thought, Chen Shu indeed needed such resources to become stronger.
"We'll discuss it carefully."
Chen Qinghai did not refuse. Chen Shu's potions also had a positive effect on King-level powerhouses, which was equivalent to a material exchange, and the official side would not lose out.
Chen Shu nodded and turned to leave.
"Wait!"
Qin Tian quickly called out to him and said, "Don't tell anyone your secret!"
Now, Chen Shu himself was powerful, and he was in China, but if this got out, other forces might get ideas.
"Don't worry."
Chen Shu nodded, waved his hand, and left the headquarters of the Imperial Dragon Guard.
"This kid..."
Qin Tian looked at the departing figure, only feeling admiration.
This guy truly had a big secret...
However, the three of them didn't delve into it. Everyone had their secrets, and whether to reveal them was up to them. No one would force them.
The old man had not questioned Chen Shu about his secrets when he met him that day.
The three discussed for a while but couldn't reach a decision.
Qin Tian said,
"Let's make a trip to Long Yuan. The matter is too significant. We should inform the old man."
"Good!"
The three made their decision and headed straight for Long Yuan City.
...
Two days passed in a flash.
Imperial Dragon Guard Headquarters,
"Minister, have the decisions been made?"
Chen Shu asked with a hint of anticipation in his eyes.
"Mmm."
Chen Qinghai nodded and said, "We have reported to the old man and customized a potion-making mission for you."
"What about the rewards?"
Chen Shu immediately asked about the key point.
"We have specially set up a potion point system. You can exchange it for various resources you desire."
Chen Qinghai waved his right hand, and a virtual screen projected into the air, displaying the exchange ratios and stock of various resources.
"Golden medicinal materials, king-level flesh and blood, true treasures..."
Chen Shu looked at the resource table above. These were indeed what he wanted.
He said, "The inventory seems a bit low..."
Except for the golden medicinal materials, which were slightly more, the other resources were too scarce. This was something he hadn't expected.
"This is all from the official treasury..."
Chen Qinghai explained, "There are still some king-level resources, but you can't use them yet."
Chen Shu nodded. His main needs were golden medicinal materials and king-level flesh and blood.
One was to increase the main attributes of his four contracted spirits, and the other was for the evolution of his little sprite's cigar and wolf-tooth club...
As for golden true treasures, they were too rare, and the exchange ratio was too high. King-level skills were the same, and the cost-effectiveness was not very high.
"Alright!"
Chen Shu looked at the exchange list and agreed with a nod.
Chen Qinghai said, "We need to configure a small portion of king-level potions. Can you guarantee a high success rate?"
Chen Shu's main mission was to configure basic to silver-level potions to increase the attributes of the various King-level contracted spirits.
Of course, because their base attributes were too strong, the improvement was not very significant.
But the most important thing was Chen Shu's Master-level potion effect!
In addition to that, he also needed to configure some golden and king-level potions specifically for the country's top experts.
Chen Shu said calmly, "Barring any unforeseen circumstances, I will not fail!"
"Not even King-level fails?!"
Qin Tian and the other two were slightly surprised, but thinking of Chen Shu's abnormal potions, they weren't too surprised.
This would save a lot of resources. King-level medicinal materials were already extremely rare, and failing even once would be too painful.
"Good! We can start now! Is there anything else we need to do?"
Chen Qinghai said excitedly.
Chen Shu's list of potion users also included his name.
"The highest-grade potion-making equipment!"
Chen Shu said. Although the system could configure potions, a clever cook couldn't cook without ingredients, and potion-making equipment was still necessary.
"No problem!"
Qin Tian nodded and said, "You have temporary access to any potion-making equipment in the academy's experimental building!"
Chen Shu's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly,
"Thank you for the gift, Principal. I will definitely not let you down!"
