Blood pill.
30 silver coins each.
[Inferior Blood Pill: Can slightly stimulate the genetic talents of non-beastmen, improving evolution efficiency]
Chen Yu frowned slightly as he looked at the message.
Inferior.
It looked very ordinary.
The entire blood pill was blood-red. When he sniffed it closely, there was a faint fragrance, and a hint of blood could be faintly detected.
"Dou'er, do you really want to eat this thing?"
Chen Yu extended the blood pill.
He didn't particularly want Hei Dou to consume such a blood pill, feeling that its quality was too poor and might affect Hei Dou's growth as a spirit beast.
Hei Dou also twitched its nose and sniffed forward.
Then it silently retreated.
"Boss." Hei Dou raised its head and pointed its small finger at the blood pill in its hand. "It feels different from the blood pills in my memory. The blood pills in my memory were very fragrant."
"You must be talking about high-grade blood pills."
Barbara, the little demon sitting on Chen Yu's shoulder, poked with her devil's trident and whispered.
"High-grade blood pills are relatively rounder, and the medicinal ingredients used are all top-grade. Blood pills like this are for farmed beasts or low-level slaves to consume, trash!"
[She's right]
[Not recommended for spirit beasts. However, those two lions could eat some]
Chen Yu hadn't seen the Gluttonous Soul for some time. Ever since the little demon Barbara said she would take over the Gluttonous Soul's job, the Gluttonous Soul had truly gone on vacation.
"Ya ya ya!"
Seeing the Gluttonous Soul's message, the little demon looked at it with amusement.
"Who is this? Why is it popping up? Are you afraid you'll be forgotten if you don't have a sense of presence? If you have the guts, don't speak for the rest of your life."
[Childish~]
"Heh, you want me to get angry? Impossible. I have a very good temper and won't get angry at all!"
[Forcing yourself to suppress your nature will make you even smaller~]
"Who are you calling small!!!" The little demon Barbara's eyes blazed with anger, and she brandished her trident. "Say that again."
[Little Grape~]
"Ah~!!! Big Cow, I'll fight you!!!"
Whoosh!
The little demon on his shoulder plunged into the wristband.
Chen Yu and Hei Dou looked at each other silently, then shrugged.
The Gluttonous Soul was still impressive.
It could make the little demon lose its composure with just a few words.
Speaking of which, the irritable little demon had actually held out for quite some time without losing her temper, which was already not bad.
[ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ I'll squeeze you dry, you cow!!]
[Pfft~ Little Grape~]
[Don't run, I'll crush you!!]
[Nyah nyah~]
This...
I really want to enter the wristband and see the world inside.
It must be very exciting.
After peeking for a while, Chen Yu closed the projected message and threw the blood pill back into the porcelain bottle.
"Dou'er, don't eat this blood pill." After closing the stopper, Chen Yu said in a low voice, "I'll get you a good one later. Don't get sick."
"Alright!" Hei Dou licked its lips and agreed.
The blood pill had already been bought, so it couldn't be thrown away.
"Beasts."
Chen Yu muttered and looked around the camp.
"Where are Jack and Rose?"
"Don't know." Hei Dou shook its head. "They should have gone out hunting. Weren't they usually going out at night?"
He glanced at the time. The wristband already showed it was almost noon.
"They've been out for too long."
Normally, when Jack and the others went out, they would be resting in the side yard when Chen Yu woke up.
It had never happened that they hadn't returned by noon.
"It's not like they've encountered any trouble, right?" Chen Yu glanced at the slave list in the camp, and as soon as the thought arose, he shook his head.
It shouldn't be.
Even if Jack and Rose weren't a match, Hei Lu should still be confident.
They probably encountered a big job.
Muttering to himself, Chen Yu poured a blood pill from the bottle and looked at the slave list.
Kobold No. 7, loyalty 101.
This was the highest loyalty among the many kobolds.
"Er Gou!"
Chen Yu called out.
Er Gou, with his muscles bulging, ran over from the smelting area, his face shining brightly.
"Boss!"
"Call Kobold No. 7 over for me," Chen Yu whispered.
He thought Er Gou might be stunned for a moment, but to his surprise, after hearing him, Er Gou immediately turned back to the smelting area.
A moment later, he came back carrying a kobold.
"Boss, it's him."
The kobold dragged over by Er Gou had a bunch of bumps on its head, clearly having participated in the action against the Bee Queen's Garden.
One eye big, one eye small.
It was also cross-eyed.
Chen Yu's only thought upon seeing him was:
This guy is probably an idiot.
Yet, this kobold, who looked like an idiot, was loyal to him.
"Boss, has he committed a crime?" Er Gou waved his hand. "Did he do something you don't like? I'll chop him up right now."
"No, no, no..."
Chen Yu quickly raised his hand and took out the blood pill.
"Have him eat this."
He threw the blood pill over.
Upon seeing the blood pill, Er Gou couldn't help but widen his eyes.
"Boss, you... you're going to cultivate him?"
"This is a reward for his loyalty to me," Chen Yu said in a low voice. "Among the kobolds, he is the most loyal. Our enterprise will never let down any employee who is loyal to their leader."
Loyalty, and a reward!
Hearing these words, Er Gou's expression instantly changed.
[Cave Reminder: Er Gou's loyalty has increased by 50]
It was full.
With just a single sentence, Er Gou's loyalty directly maxed out at 200.
Chen Yu had just said it casually. He would never admit that he was afraid of Jack and Rose having side effects and was using this kobold as a test subject.
Now it seemed that the enterprise could have a reward system.
The more loyal to the enterprise.
The more rewards the enterprise could provide.
There could be weekly, monthly, quarterly, and annual selections, and the prizes could be made a bit bigger to further stimulate employees' enthusiasm for the enterprise.
The grand prizes would be secretly manipulated, as he ultimately held the right of final interpretation.
Some consolation prizes could be given to the employees.
Employees who didn't win the grand prize would have the consolation prizes to fall back on, which would also make them work harder for the enterprise.
Brilliant!
What kind of intelligent mind could come up with such a brilliant plan?
"Leader, please rest assured, I, Er Gou, will pledge my loyalty until death!" Er Gou, whose loyalty was full, was as if he had been injected with chicken blood, patting his chest.
"Good, I believe you."
Chen Yu also nodded seriously and gestured towards the kobold with his chin.
"It's time for him to take his medicine."
"Take it, this is a reward from the leader for you. Don't fail the leader's cultivation. Eat!" Er Gou handed the blood pill out, but unexpectedly, the kobold tilted its head blankly.
"Why are you staring? Eat!" Er Gou said.
The kobold still tilted its head blankly.
Seeing this, Er Gou grabbed the kobold's mouth and threw the pill in.
The blood pill entered the mouth.
Chen Yu immediately focused his attention on the kobold.
Then—
"Ah!!!!"
It exploded!
