Is it the ability to awaken? Is it an extraordinary treasure? Or some interesting reward?
Of course, Miaomiao didn't expect too much. Because when she met Fang Ze two days ago, Fang Ze had already returned her [darkness] ability to her for free. This is equivalent to her earning thousands of contribution points in just these few days, which is enough to cover her expenses for a long time, and is already worth every penny.
Therefore, even if Mr. Devil just praises her verbally, she will decide to be happy.
And just as she was thinking this, the devil's hoarse, magnetic voice sounded in her ears, "As for... what reward will I give you?"
The devil looked up and down, and then said slowly, "You seem to be a bit weak now."
"You are not worthy of being my apostle."
Having said this, the devil paused again and said, "I remember that you are of demigod bloodline, and the way to advance to the fusion level is different from that of ordinary awakened people. After reaching the fusion level, you will automatically become a noble protected by the laws of the world, with potential It will also inspire.”
"Well, then I'll just help you increase your strength to the fusion level at once, so that you can become a true noble."
Upon hearing the devil's words, Miaomiao's eyes widened and she looked at the devil in surprise.
Although I had known that Mr. Devil possessed infinite power. I also know that an ordinary fusion level is nothing to Mr. Devil. Even if you are a noble, Mr. Devil can grant it directly.
However, after all, that is just "knowing" and has not really come to oneself.
Therefore, when he really got all this, Miao Miao's heart was suddenly filled with joy.
She quickly fell to the ground and said, "Thank you Mr. Devil for the reward! I will definitely live up to Mr. Devil's high expectations."
Seeing Miaomiao's piety, the devil sitting on the sofa nodded with satisfaction, and then he slowly said, "In addition, the reason why I directly raised your strength to the fusion level this time and made you a noble is as a reward. It’s also compensation.”
Having said this, he looked at Miaomiao and asked slowly, "You should already know that your identity has been replaced, right?"
After hearing Mr. Devil's words, Miaomiao hesitated for a moment and finally nodded.
She had learned about her life experience from Mr. Devil a long time ago, and knew that she was a descendant of the Si family, one of the three nobles in West Dakota.
Later, Fang Ze took her place, but she kept hanging out at the lower levels and didn't know about it.
After arriving at the state capital in the past two days and entering Fang Ze's manor, she soon discovered that she had been replaced by Fang Ze, so she was a little confused.
This was also the reason why she kept telling Heiyu on the first day that she wanted to meet Fang Ze: she wanted to find out what all this was about...
But after Fang Ze didn't see her for two days, she gradually calmed down.
Because she felt that if Fang Ze really wanted to replace her, there was no need to call her to the state capital and cause trouble to himself. And if Mr. Devil is plotting her identity, there is absolutely no need to tell her.
So she thought there must be something she didn't know.
Now that Mr. Devil took the initiative to bring up this matter, she said frankly, "Yes, sir. I already know. And... I'm a little confused."
Hearing her words, Mr. Devil nodded, then looked at her softly and said, "You don't need to be nervous or worried."
"There are two reasons why I arranged for someone to impersonate you. One is because one of my plans really needs to borrow your identity."
"Second, the situation in West Dazhou is too complicated. The rebuilt Si family is also the focus of the entire eastern jurisdiction. It will be difficult for you with a simple mind to cope with the difficulties from all forces. So I will ask someone to help you develop the family first, and then Returned to you."
Hearing Mr. Devil's words, Miaomiao couldn't help but think of what she had asked about Fang Ze from Heiyu in the past two days: it could be said that every one of them was legendary, and Miaomiao was amazed.
Now hearing what Mr. Devil said, she couldn't help but relate to what Fang Ze had experienced in the past few months. She felt that Mr. Devil was right. With her brain, if she became Fang Ze, she might not be able to survive. Two days....
Seeing that Miaomiao had listened, Mr. Devil also said slowly, "As for you now, all you have to do is grow up as soon as possible."
"When you grow up and have the strength to stand alone, I will help you restore your identity."
"Of course, as a reward for borrowing your identity during this period, I will also give you a powerful Si family."
After hearing Mr. Devil's frank words, Miaomiao quickly prostrated on the ground again and said, "Thank you, Mr. Devil~ Miaomiao understands."
Seeing this, the devil nodded slightly, then he looked at the time and said, "Okay, I've said all that needs to be said. Next, let me help you improve your strength."
Speaking of this, the devil said, "Now, concentrate and feel what I have given you..."
........
at the same time.
When Fang Ze helped Miao Miao quickly improve her strength.
Throughout the Eastern Jurisdiction, especially in various low- and high-end cities in West Dakota, shuttle-shaped steel ships appeared out of thin air. Groups of federal garrison soldiers, led by black-clad Secret Service officers, began to break down doors and arrest people. .
As for those who were arrested, when they saw the black attire of the Secret Service Department, some were frightened on the spot. They fought with each other and peeed. Some kept explaining, trying to prove that they had nothing to do with the demigods, Congressman Huang and others. The others became hot-blooded and began to resist...
Cries for mercy, excuses, and calls to kill rang out in the skies over every city this night...
This is bound to be a sleepless night.
And just when the Secret Service Department was arresting people on a large scale.
In Yunlan Prefecture, in a wilderness, the bandaged woman Xin Yi, covered in blood, pulled a middle-aged man wearing a black robe with gold stripes and was trying to escape.
From time to time, harsh buzzes sounded around them, like the sound of a small aircraft passing by.
Every time they heard the buzzer, the two of them quickly fell to the ground with panic on their faces.
While running, Xin Yi did not forget to comfort the middle-aged man, "President, don't worry. My space transfer ability can be used again in two minutes. We will soon be out of the encirclement of the Special Service Department."
"As long as you get through tonight, you'll be fine."
After hearing Xin Yi's words, the president of the Fuxing Club looked at her with a moved face after being panicked, and then said, "Xin Yi, thanks to you."
"If you hadn't pretended to cooperate with the officials, got out the information that they were going to take action tonight, and then risked your life to come back to rescue me, maybe I would have really confessed here tonight."
"Don't worry. Although our Fuxing Club has been wiped out, I still have backup plans and trump cards!"
"After we escape, I will definitely make a comeback. Then I will be the president and you will be the vice president!"
Hearing the words of the president of the Fuxing Club, the bandaged woman said with excitement, "Thank you, president, for the reward. Don't worry, president, we will definitely escape!"
"As for the vice president...as long as I can follow the president, I will be satisfied even if I am just a small member."
If he usually heard Bandage Girl say this, the president of Fuxing Club would only think that she was flattering her, but after Bandage Girl really brought key information and saved him, he now only feels that everything about Bandage Girl is so sincere. Already....
At that moment, he couldn't help but make a decision...
........
late at night.
Xidazhou, the state capital.
Fang Ze sat up from the bed. He gently held the sleeping figure of the Flower God lying on top of him aside, then stood up, put on some clothes and came to the window.
Looking at the bright moon outside the window, Fang Ze recalled what happened in the late-night investigation room just now.
With [Usury] and [Aristocratic Fusion Method], Fang Ze trained Miaomiao to the fusion level, and only needed to invest resources.
These resources originally belonged to the Si family, so Fang Ze didn't feel bad.
However, cultivating Miaomiao to the fusion level and helping her become a noble is not the end, but just the beginning. The real difficulty of being a noble is the subsequent promotion of Miaomiao.
It was only after becoming a noble recognized by the federation that Fang Ze realized why the federation could clearly know the number of nobles in each family and control the nobles.
It was all because of nothing else but the mineral extract [Qin 28] that Fang Ze was most familiar with.
[Qin] is one of the rarest minerals in the spiritual world. Its content is low, but it happens to be an indispensable thing for communicating with the origin of the world when nobles are promoted.
In addition, after the [Qin] ore is produced, it needs to undergo various refining processes to become [Qin 28], so most of [Qin 28] is controlled by the federation.
Whenever a noble child becomes a high-level awakened person, the Federation will give a copy of [Qin 28] as a gift to the noble family.
It was said to be a congratulatory gift, but in fact it was also the expense that this nobleman would need when he was promoted in the future.
Just like Fang Ze when he was promoted to the fusion level, a nobleman needs 1 gram [Qin 28] to be promoted to the fusion level, 2 grams [Qin 28] to be promoted to the second fusion level, and 3 grams [Qin 28] to be promoted to the third level. And so on until the sixth level of fusion, the total is 21 grams!
Therefore, once a noble hid the population, that person's strength ceiling would become very low and almost worthless.
In addition, the price of [Qin-28] on the black market is extremely expensive, so once a family raises funds on a large scale to purchase [Qin-28], or secretly hides [Qin-28], it will immediately be noticed by the federation.
Of course, among them, there are also nobles like the Jiang family who are responsible for [Qin 28] business in the Federation. For such a family, the federation will monitor them more closely.
This kind of resource control and surveillance, coupled with the fact that nobles can only have children by marrying nobles, makes it extremely difficult for nobles to hide illegitimate children.
Fang Ze's raising of Miaomiao is actually equivalent to raising an illegitimate child: after he became a noble, he had already reached the fusion level and could not receive [Qin 28] at all. And the [Qin 28] collected by the Flower God had already been spent by him when he was promoted.
He only had a few grams of [Qin 28] left in his hand, which could support Miaomiao to the third level of fusion at most. According to this calculation...he still has a gap of about 15 grams [Qin 28].
"Where are we going to do this...We need to find a way."
Accompanied by the bright moonlight, Fang Ze stood by the window for a long time. It wasn't until late at night that he suddenly woke up from a dream, "Hey... the last time I got so many [Qin 28] was from Hua. Got it from God.”
"Then let's start from the big black Garo this time, right?"
Although it is not clear why these demigods are engaged in [Qin 28], judging from the information Fang Ze knows about Dahei Jialuo, he has indeed been engaged in [Qin 28] in recent years: Fuxing Society spends a lot of money to get from Fang Ze got a few grams of [Qin 28] from his hands.
The Renaissance Society is the weakest force cultivated by Daheigaluo. Representative Huang and other hidden forces must have helped Daheigaluo collect this thing in recent years.
So...as long as you capture Dahei Jialuo and search his treasure house, you might be able to get the [Qin 28] that Miao Miao needs to upgrade.
Thinking like this, Fang Ze suddenly wanted to capture Dahei Jialuo and bring him back.
As for why Fang Ze spared no effort to cultivate Qiaoqiao? In fact, he also has selfish motives.
In addition to the original person and the fact that he owed this girl a little bit, Fang Ze also knew that this girl could be said to be his most devout and capable believer.
In addition, during this period of time, Fang Ze has learned about the "Noble Bloodline Curse" from many people. He has learned that the larger the number of noble families, the more dispersed the potential, and the smaller the number, the more concentrated the potential. When there is only one noble in the family, there is a high probability that that person can become a demigod.
So...he wanted to train himself, a loyal believer, to become a demigod in his lineup.
Judging from the current precarious situation of the Federation, a future melee between the gods is almost certain. Even if Fang Ze is already a demigod by then, a demigod is too weak.
Therefore, if a diehard like Miaomiao can be cultivated into a demigod, it will be a great enhancement to Fang Ze's strength...
Thinking like this, Fang Ze, who finally found the "solution to the problem", returned to bed with a relaxed mood, got into the bed, and fell into a deep sleep...
...
There was nothing to say all night, and the next day, Fang Ze went to work at the Security Bureau as usual.
I don't know if he is too sensitive, but Fang Ze always feels that the attitude of everyone in the Security Bureau has become more friendly towards him.
Especially the chiefs of other departments and several deputy directors. When they saw him before, they were a bit indifferent or just looked at him blankly. As a result, now, not only did he greet me warmly, he even took the initiative to invite him to his office for a chat. This made Fang Ze a little confused for a while.
Finally, Li Xiang, who came to approach Fang Ze in the name of work, gave him the answer.
"Director, don't you know? Last night, it was spread throughout the bureau that you had another mortal-level master under your command."
"Two masters at the mortal level. The one with the highest strength in the security bureau is only at the peak of Huayang. How dare they mess with you? So, you can really walk around in the state capital now."
Hearing Li Xiang's words, Fang Ze was speechless for a moment.
This world, no...it should be said that every world is so realistic. Strength is always the best way to get others to respect you.
However, Fang Ze did not feel complacent because of this. The strength of his subordinates was always his subordinates', not his.
Although external forces can be used and borrowed, they cannot be relied on. The most important thing is to make yourself stronger.
Thinking this, Fang Ze fell down on the table with a "pop".
Seeing his weird look, Rika, who was standing next to him, looked at him curiously, with a question mark popping up on her head.
Fang Ze quickly gathered his mind, controlled the [External Dharma] in his body, and then explained, "It's okay. I just didn't sleep well last night and was a little sleepy. Okay, it's okay. You can go out."
Hearing Fang Ze's words, Li Xiang nodded hesitantly and walked towards the outside of the office, but as she walked, she muttered in a low voice, "I haven't slept well, are you a little sleepy? Huayangjie will still be sleepy..." ...?"
.........
The fact that Hei Po became a mortal is far more influential than Fang Ze imagined.
At first, Black Bull became a mortal, which only proved that the new Si family had a firm foothold. Although many people were surprised, they just waited and watched. As a result, in less than two days, a new class of mortals was born again, and all the forces in the state capital had to pay attention to the Cheese family.
Therefore, throughout the morning, Fang Ze received many invitations from various forces in the state capital.
There were two most important ones. One was sent by Councilor Jia. In the invitation, he once again proposed that he wanted to be a guest at Fang Ze's house. Moreover, compared to his slightly reserved surrender last time, his language this time was obviously much more flattering and straightforward.
From the looks of it, he also discovered that if it continues, as more and more masters become more and more powerful under Fang Ze's command, his role will become weaker and weaker, and it will not be of such high value to join them again. So I was anxious.
Fang Ze was very interested in the first congressman who surrendered to him, so after thinking for a moment, he decided to meet him at home at noon today.
The reason why Councilor Jia was not summoned in the evening was because of the second invitation that Fang Ze valued.
That invitation was sent by the three nobles directly under the jurisdiction of Sanzhou. This is the third time they have invited Fang Ze.
Fang Ze failed to keep the appointment twice before. It would be a bit too much of a slap in the face if I didn't go this time.
Moreover, if their previous two invitations were a bit perfunctory and condescending, this time they were very formal and polite.
In the invitation, these three nobles also specifically mentioned that they had important things to discuss with Fang Ze tonight and hoped that Fang Ze could be present.
The three reasons were superimposed together, so Fang Ze should go to see this alliance that has the right to speak of the nobles in the eastern jurisdiction, both emotionally and logically.
After finalizing the two meetings, Fang Ze quickly wrote a reply letter and then recruited Xiao You to help him send it back.
.......
Just like that, the whole morning passed in a blink of an eye.
At noon, when Fang Ze got off work, Hei Yu's car was already waiting outside the security bureau. After getting in Hei Yu's car, Fang Ze returned to Sijia Manor within two minutes. At this time, Representative Jia has arrived.
Accompanied by a master of the Huayang level of the Si family, he was watching the vassals of the Si family train on the school field.
Seeing the heated scene, his face was full of memories and nostalgia, "I remember that when we were young, we also trained in this manor."
"At that time, the main family was prosperous and had the potential to be the head of the three nobles in West Dar State. It was quite famous even in the entire eastern jurisdiction."
"Unexpectedly, more than ten years have passed in the blink of an eye, and only the young master is left in the master's family."
Speaking of this, Councilor Jia couldn't help but sigh...
At this time, the Huayangjie who was following him opened his mouth to say something, but when he looked up, he saw that Fang Ze had arrived not far from the two of them, so he quickly took back what he wanted to say, He bowed and said, "Young Master!"
Hearing his name, Councilor Jia came out of his thoughts, and then he turned to look at Fang Ze who was aside. After seeing Fang Ze, he hesitated for a second, and finally bent down to bow, bowed respectfully, and shouted, "Young Master."
After hearing what Councilor Jia said just now and seeing his current etiquette, Fang Ze nodded: This guy does seem to be sincerely surrendering to him. So Fang Ze was not humble or polite, but just said indifferently, "Mr. Jia is interested. Let's go inside and chat." After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the main hall of the manor.
Upon hearing this, Councilor Jia quickly straightened up and followed...
After a while, the two came to the main hall of the manor.
At this time, Heiyu had already ordered people to prepare tea and fruits. Fang Ze sat on the main seat, then stretched out his hand to indicate the seat next to him, "Sit down, Mr. Jia."
Councilor Jia responded and sat down respectfully.
Seeing him like that, Fang Ze couldn't help but think of his arrogant and domineering look when he first met him. For a moment, he felt as if he was from another world, so he asked, "Mr. Jia, I remember that you were too kind to the Si family before." If you have any complaints, why are you thinking of returning to the Si family now?"
After hearing what Fang Ze said, Councilor Jia said with a smile, "Young Master, you are joking."
"I did have some complaints against my master's family because of some things that happened back then. But it is precisely because of love that I have complaints."
"As for why I want to return to the Si family now...of course it's because I am impressed by the young master's wisdom and martial arts."
Councilor Jia is very interesting in what he says. Although what he says is all empty talk, upon closer inspection, it seems that he is indeed telling the truth.
After all, without a bunch of modifiers, his core meaning is obvious: he has indeed been resenting the Si family for what happened back then, but he also has certain feelings. If there is no accident, he may not return. But who made him discover that Fang Ze was a wise master, so he desperately wanted to return to the Si family.
Thinking like this, Fang Ze glanced at Councilor Jia and did not continue to ask: Some things just need to be settled until everyone understands. It would be impolite to talk too thoroughly.
Thinking of this, Fang Ze simply smiled and said, "Since Mr. Jia is willing to return to the Si family, of course I will sweep the bed to welcome him. Welcome Mr. Jia to return to the Si family!"
Upon hearing that Fang Ze was willing to recruit him, Councilor Jia quickly stood up with a smile on his face and bowed to Fang Ze, "Thank you, young master!" This time, his bow was very wide, almost reaching ninety degrees.
After getting up, he also said, "Young Master, this time I returned to the Si family, I actually brought a small gift with me."
"Oh? A gift?" After hearing Councilor Jia's words, Fang Ze picked up the tea cup, took a sip of tea, and asked, "What gift?"
