Chapter 205 – This Is Called Seduction (3)
Becky introduced the Hunters. Other than Jace, the other two Hunters had only been enhanced twice, so they weren’t too familiar with each other.
When it reached Jace’s turn, Becky stopped and smiled, “I won’t introduce him. You should be familiar with him.”
“Yes, Jace and I are old friends.”
Zhou Jing was not surprised. Many people knew this, and the King must have investigated it as well. He grinned at Jason and pretended to be polite.
“It’s been a long time. How have you been?”
“Not too bad.” Jason’s words were short. There were usually very few emotional reactions in the placement mode.
Zhou Jing then turned to the other two as well before loudly speaking, “Do you know the effect of the new potion? It can give you the special abilities of mutant beasts, but the failure rate is higher than the original. Are you sure it’s okay?”
Jason was the first to answer, his face expressionless, “No problem.”
The other two also immediately expressed their stance.
Zhou Jing nodded and solemnly continued,
“Alright, because this potion is relatively special, I need to know what kind of blood potion you’ve taken before. According to your previous enhancements, I’ll screen out a special ability that suits you and customize
it.”
With that, Zhou Jing got someone to bring a pen and paper and asked the three of them to write down the past blood potion enhancements.
......
Although he knew Jason’s enhancement route, he wasn’t just putting on an act. He still had some integrity and did not intend to fool the other two hunters.
Soon, Zhou Jing received three pieces of paper. He took a look and put them away.
At this moment, Zhou Jing thought of something and turned to look at King Becky, “Your Majesty, will we be surveilling them as they enhance?”
Becky grunted. He did not deny it.
On the one hand, he wanted the pharmacist to observe the enhancement process of the V3 Potion. On the other hand, he was afraid that the hunter would run away after obtaining the new potion… The original potion did not matter, but he was worried that news of the new potion would leak.
Zhou Jing shook his head, “I suggest that we don’t do this. It’s best to let them enhance themselves according to their own habits. This will provide some form of help, no matter how meager. If a person who’s used to undergoing enhancement alone is suddenly surrounded, the mental pressure might affect the success rate.”
“There’s such a thing? Why haven’t I heard of it?” Becky frowned, skeptical.
“I developed the potions. Trust me, no one knows the new potions better than me.”
Zhou Jing spread his hands confidently.
Becky hesitated for a moment before agreeing, “Okay, I’ll listen to you.”
Hearing this, Zhou Jing heaved a sigh of relief.
He had almost forgotten about this. If Jason failed and died while being seen by others, he would not be able to continue being an Imperial Hunter. Thus, he had to carry out the plan of enhancing himself in private.
Of course, it was still a little risky. Even if Jason died quietly, there would be a certain period of time before he could be reformed again. It would make the king wonder if he had taken the new potion and fled.
If it really happened, it would probably be difficult to explain. Perhaps he could use the “Heaven and Earth Great Shift” martial art and let Jason acknowledge Roman as his big brother instead. Bill could then hug the thigh of the royal family and change the target of his two-timing… After going through so many times of Astral Travel, Zhou Jing had become more and more proficient and understood what it meant to be flexible.
(TL Note: It’s a martial arts skill from Jin Yong’s novel, The Heavenly Sword and Dragon Slaying Sabre.)
After instructing the three hunters, Zhou Jing ended the meeting.
Right now, they only had the intention to enhance themselves, but they did not want to do so immediately. There was a need for them to take some time to adjust their states… Only when someone felt that they were ready would they then apply to use the potion.
The guards sent them out of the Golden Castle. As Zhou Jing watched this scene, he thought to himself.
“I can’t let Jason enhance himself during the placement mode. If he doesn’t do it well, he might die. It’s better to wait until I switch to the Astral Apostle in the next cycle. I’ll apply for enhancement after I project myself into Jason’s body.”
