"..."
Chen Shu turned to look. You failed but you're still so calm?
"Cough, cough..."
Da Li coughed and said, "Failure is the mother of success. You just need to give me some time."
"Think about it, if you really manage to research it, wouldn't you be able to kill any Monarchs you want in the future?"
"That's true."
Chen Shu stroked his chin. It was indeed a milestone invention.
However, even if it succeeded, the cost would be quite high. Where would he find so many King-tier contract spirits...
"No rush, we still have time,"
Chen Shu said calmly. There were still half a month left before the option ended.
Zhang Da Li nodded, then immersed himself in his research.
"Whoosh, whoosh!"
Xiao Huang wandered around, hoping to find something. Perhaps the smell of the ingredients hadn't dispersed, leading to the Monarch not appearing.
At this moment, except for Chen Shu, who was still determined to hunt Monarchs, the other powerhouses had already left the异空间 (Yi Kong Jian - Other Dimension).
One reason was that the Monarchs had already withdrawn.
Another reason was that Long Yuan City was once again invaded by various fierce beasts.
Although the Long Yuan Beast Emperor was unwilling to confront the old man directly, he still sent out other fierce beasts to try and force the King-tier powerhouses back, otherwise, other 异空间 (Yi Kong Jian - Other Dimension) would be in trouble.
The old man also understood the fierce beasts' intentions and summoned the powerhouses of Long Yuan City back.
If this dragged on, the Long Yuan fierce beasts might truly launch a full-scale invasion. If he were to be entangled by the Beast Emperor, Blue Star would be in crisis.
This was also a good time for the powerhouses to digest their gains.
And so, a grand Monarch hunting plan came to an end...
Only Chen Shu continued hunting, but whether human or fierce beast, they all ignored him...
How much impact could one person have?
...
Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.
"Da Li, how's it going?"
Chen Shu's initial anticipation had turned into disappointment. He had even prepared for failure.
"If it really doesn't work, don't force yourself..."
"Don't worry."
Zhang Da Li looked up at him and said, "Failure is the mother of success."
"..."
Chen Shu's mouth twitched. "We understand the principle, but with so many mothers, hasn't even one gotten pregnant yet?"
In ten days, Da Li had cooked all sorts of dishes, and had even almost used up one King-tier contract spirit.
Zhang Da Li took a deep breath and said calmly,
"Today, success is inevitable! I guarantee it with my integrity!"
Chen Shu rubbed his head. "This is the sixth time. Is your integrity inexhaustible?"
"Really, trust me!"
Zhang Da Li patted his chest and said, "I'm very close to success!"
As he spoke, he took out a small, red heart, which was the most essential part of a King-tier contract spirit.
If it failed again, it could basically be declared over.
An hour later, another pot of fragrant soup was cooked.
"It smells so good..."
The little elf's mouth watered. "Every drop is hard-earned. Can you two stop being so wasteful?"
Every time it watched the two of them boil the soup dry, its heart felt like it was bleeding.
"What do you know? This is for a greater harvest!"
Chen Shu held the little elf to prevent it from gulping down the soup.
"Succeed for me!"
Zhang Da Li whispered a prayer and dripped in the purple Monarch essence.
Xiao Huang was still flying around the foot of the mountain.
Although [Thunder Peak] only had one peak, its area was vast, no smaller than any other 异空间 (Yi Kong Jian - Other Dimension) of the same level.
A dense, rich aroma of meat spread out.
Roar!
Almost at the same time, five Lords appeared below.
The Lords below opened their huge mouths, and drool continuously dripped out, making them look as if they were experiencing a famine...
Boom, boom!
A Thunder Eagle finally couldn't resist, ignoring the pressure from the Golden contract spirit, and charged towards the slime, its gaze fixed on the pot of meat soup.
"Huh?"
Chen Shu was slightly taken aback. Looking at its irrational state, it was just like a fierce beast that had been hit by an aphrodisiac.
"Could it really be effective?!"
A guess arose in his heart.
Bang!
The Space Rabbit held a giant carrot and swung it out, triggering the 'Forced Shatter' effect again.
A Golden Thunder Eagle instantly exploded in the sky, its remains falling down.
The current scene also made the other Lords tremble, and their minds cleared. However, as the aroma of the meat soup gradually intensified, they began to lose their reason again.
Chen Shu did not unleash a massacre but waited silently for the Monarch to appear.
In just fifteen minutes, dozens of Lords had gathered below.
Although there were already Lord corpses beside them, it still didn't stop them from roaring at the slime in the sky.
"They are all Lords, it's useless..."
Chen Shu frowned slightly. The value of Lords was really not great...
And more importantly, they couldn't help him complete the system option.
"Should I kill them directly? Maybe it will force out the Monarch?"
Chen Shu stroked his chin. His subordinates were being slaughtered, so shouldn't the elder brother show himself?
Just as he was thinking, the sound of crackling thunder seemed to come from above.
"Huh?"
Chen Shu looked up sharply, and saw a terrifying bolt of lightning instantly descend, charging towards the slime.
The Space Rabbit waved its left hand, and [Space Prison] suddenly appeared, confining the lightning in place.
Bang!
The lightning collided with the Space Prison, and its rapid speed was instantly halted by force, revealing the creature within the lightning.
A Thunder Flood Dragon, about ten meters long, roared, its body enveloped in lightning, its aura extremely terrifying!
With its appearance, all the fierce beasts in the entire [Thunder Peak] seemed to riot, gathering towards this location.
"The Monarch... has appeared!"
