actually……

He could also see that Zhang Hao had not yet advanced to level nine.

The display of strength he had just witnessed was enough for him to understand that any ordinary level nine cultivator who was not mentally inclined or possessed special mental defense methods would inevitably be defeated if their mental level was inferior to Zhang Hao's.

That's level eight!

How terrifying would it be if the opponent advanced to level nine?

I'm afraid Murphy isn't even worthy of carrying his shoes.

Zhang Hao's confrontation this time was actually to prove something.

The reason Murphy was able to fight him now was because Murphy possessed a special mental defense mechanism, which was probably also the reason why William Doyle was not affected before.

However, those at level nine who possess mental or mental defense mechanisms are ultimately few and far between.

His mental level had already surpassed that of ordinary level nine due to years of tempering his body with lightning and the constant stimulation of his brain cell activity.

This is precisely why Eric, despite being no weaker than him in terms of raw strength, couldn't even withstand two moves.

Zhang Hao understood the situation and became eager to try: "In that case... I'm actually not much different from a level nine. Of course, I still have significant weaknesses. Once a level nine like Murphy, who has mental defenses, makes a move, the outcome is still uncertain. Last time, it was just that the opponent underestimated me."

but……

The next promotion will happen in the next few days.

Once you reach level nine, not only will your only weakness disappear.

Their own strength will undergo a tremendous change. Their mental power will be enhanced once again, and killing creatures that have just entered the ninth level will be as easy as taking candy from a baby.

Even with his mental defenses, Murphy's efforts were in vain.

My own strength is enough to crush it; I can kill it even without using [Mental Burn].

Eric couldn't help but exclaim, "You're amazing. Your powerful mental attacks are hard to defend against. Even a level nine fighter wouldn't be a match for you. No wonder Murphy values ​​you so much."

Zhang Hao smiled and said, "You're actually very strong too."

“Your Stonefish clan is very good at disguise. It’s difficult for most mental beings to detect your presence. If you come to assassinate me… I’m afraid I’ll have to be careful.”

"Haha, you flatter me, you're the best."

"No, no, you're amazing."

"..."

The two exchanged a few words of business flattery.

Whether it's true or not, I just feel very comfortable.

This immediately shortened the distance between them, and then Zhang Hao led the other person to his villa.

Sitting on the sofa.

Eric touched it with great interest and couldn't help but marvel: "What a soft sofa! It must be so comfortable to sleep on. No wonder the sea creatures yearn for land so much. Compared to this, the ocean is indeed quite boring."

“This sofa is just for sitting, but of course you can sleep on it too. We have special beds that are much more comfortable than this. If you don’t mind… I can give your people ten thousand beds.” Zhang Hao said meaningfully.

"Ten thousand sets? I wouldn't dare."

"It's not expensive."

"No, no, not for now."

Eric suppressed his excitement.

He knew exactly what the other person meant, and he didn't plan to involve his clansmen for the time being.

If their gamble fails, their entire clan will suffer.

Zhang Hao changed the subject and asked, "Okay, let's change the subject then. You just mentioned Murphy. Does your visit have anything to do with him?"

"Yes, Murphy actually asked me to assassinate you, but I felt there was no need to offend you."

Eric explained briefly.

Zhang Hao looked at the other person and asked with interest, "So what deal have you come here to make?"

Eric sat up straight and said with great interest, "Do you want to kill Murphy? I can help you, all you have to do is provide my people with food for five years, just fresh fish and shrimp will do."

"Why don't you catch them yourselves?"

"lazy."

"..."

Zhang Hao didn't know what to say for a moment.

But looking at the unassuming old man in front of him, he rolled his eyes and said, "I'm not interested in killing Murphy or not."

"Huh? Why?"

Eric was a little surprised: "Since Murphy has offended you, don't you want to eliminate him completely? I'm also in the deep Pacific Ocean, not far from Murphy's lair, so it's easy for me to succeed."

Zhang Hao stared at him and said bluntly, "Murphy doesn't need to worry, he'll die sooner or later. My only interest right now is in you. I admire your strength and ability, and I hereby formally extend a grand invitation to you."

"Huh? This..."

Eric was somewhat flattered.

But more than anything, I felt nervous and at a loss.

Are you in such a hurry?

But I'm not planning to fully join your camp yet.

Eric didn't know what to say and asked in confusion, "Why me? Although I am a level nine sea creature... there are actually quite a few level nines in the deep sea, and my strength is only considered low-level. I'm also too lazy to do much for you, so why invite me?"

"Laziness is not a problem for me."

Zhang Hao gave an irrelevant answer.

Fang Ping and Wang Kaixuan, who had been standing nearby, were also surprised.

The chairman actually values ​​this incredibly ugly old man in front of him so much?

But little did they know...

Eric is no ordinary sea creature.

As members of the stonefish family, they spend most of their time sleeping.

While eating, they also focus on becoming stronger. Most stonefish without talent are actually not very strong, and are even one or two levels weaker than other sea creatures.
