Luo Chen ended the call, slowly exhaled, put away his phone, and walked towards Tiger Soul.
"Young Master."
"Um."
Luo Chen nodded slightly, then looked him over a few times and said, "Tiger Soul, I can pretend I never heard what you said before, but I will not allow you to say it again."
"Young Master..."
"Let me finish speaking first."
Luo Chen waved his hand, saying helplessly, "I know that during this time, I have indeed taken better care of Wolf Fang than you have, and I understand that you have had some complaints in your heart these days, but..."
Luo Chen tilted his head slightly and looked at the setting sun in the distance: "You should also understand that the opponents we are facing have actually become stronger. They are no longer the easy targets they used to be, but real formidable enemies."
"Ah..." Tiger Soul remained silent. He understood the situation and knew how powerful the person he was facing was, but he was not afraid of death. Even if he couldn't win, he would not force himself to submit and beg for survival.
"Tiger Soul, I know what you're thinking, and I understand that you're not afraid of death. But now that you've followed me, I have to guarantee your life. I don't want to lose you because of a moment of impulsiveness. That would... make me very sad."
To be a true villain, you shouldn't treat your subordinates' lives as your own, but rather as tools with value to be exploited. Ruthlessly squeezing out any remaining value is the right thing to do.
But Luo Chen couldn't do it, even though he was the villain.
He wouldn't act like the other villains, knowingly handing over experience points to the enemy even though they're doomed. That would not only result in the loss of someone important to him, but would also make the protagonist's faction even stronger.
As a 21st-century youth, even if I travel into a book and encounter many things, some things etched into my soul will not change overnight.
On the contrary, it will become more profound over time.
In truth, Luo Chen didn't really want to fight against the protagonist. If it weren't for his life being at stake, he would rather choose a peaceful life.
Spend time with someone important to you, and go to a massage parlor when you have nothing to do.
He desires a relaxed and comfortable life, one that allows him to live a carefree existence.
However, there are some things that are beyond our control.
To gain something, you must first give something in return.
These are the rules, and they cannot be broken.
Luo Chen is currently fighting against the protagonist, but how he fights is up to him and his own decisions.
Luo Chen would not allow people to be treated like human beings and to be given experience packs indiscriminately.
Since we're going to take action, we should naturally use the strongest lineup.
Who the hell would bother to deliver things step by step?
Isn't that crazy?
If he were a Grandmaster now, he might very well run to the Northern Frontier and give Ye Feng a good beating.
But right now we can only play it safe and develop our strength cautiously; we can't be too reckless.
"..."
Tiger Soul's eyes reddened slightly; he hadn't realized he was so important to Luo Chen.
Luo Chen withdrew his gaze and smiled at Hu Po: "Although I feel a little sorry for you, I promised to help you become stronger, but instead I made you do logistics. However, I really don't want you to go and die, otherwise I would feel really guilty. I'm confident that Wolf Fang can handle them now, but you..."
"Young Master!"
Tiger Soul suddenly knelt on one knee and said loudly, "I know that I can't help you with anything right now, but I'm not afraid of death or any humiliation. I just don't want you to have to do everything yourself. That would make me feel useless."
Luo Chen sighed helplessly, then pulled Hu Po up and said, "Please, how can you be useless? Have you forgotten that when we first met, you beat me up for a whole week?"
"Uh, isn't it too late to beat him up now...?"
Now that Luo Chen's strength is abnormally powerful, it's already a good thing if you don't get beaten up by Luo Chen, let alone think about beating him up. These words made Hu Po feel a little embarrassed.
Don't worry.
Luo Chen patted Hu Po's arm and said, "I have never thought you were useless. You are, after all, my number one general. If others look down on you, I can help you beat them up. But if even I look down on you, doesn't that mean I have a problem with my own judgment?"
"In my heart, you are amazing."
"Young Master..."
"Alright, stop making that face like a girl."
Luo Chen glared at him irritably, then said, "I've found a way for you to become stronger. The lab will send over the results in a few days, but... I don't know if you can handle it."
Speaking of this, Luo Chen had some concerns.
Although they collaborated with the Jiang and Ye families to research biology and create drugs that could enhance human physique to its limits, these were ultimately only semi-finished products, and there was still a significant gap between them and the desired effects.
It's far less effective than having the complete version in his possession.
In the lab, Han Zhiqing and her team of researchers had already conducted experiments, using several resilient little turtles as test subjects, and also a white mouse.
The research results were very satisfactory; no adverse conditions were found during the many days that were conducted.
On the contrary, the DNA of the four little turtles and the little white mouse became even stronger, as if they had broken through some kind of constraint.
However, according to Han Zhiqing, although the results were in and the experiments were conducted, no experiments have been performed on humans yet.
Therefore, there has been no progress in this regard.
Although this invention has had a great impact on humanity and directly changed everything.
But Luo Chen wouldn't be foolish enough to announce it and create trouble for himself, nor did he want to leave too many traces just for conducting an experiment.
Unlike the main character, he doesn't do one thing that leads to a series of other events.
Therefore, the lab's operations have always been kept secret, and non-core personnel have no idea what is being done inside.
Now that Tiger Soul wants to become stronger, Luo Chen has no choice but to have a potion sent over from there.
After numerous improvements, although it has not been tested, it is very well adapted to the human body.
But the process was somewhat painful.
It's like finally falling asleep at night, only to be suddenly woken up by the urge to urinate, and rushing to the toilet to have a good, satisfying pee.
But they found that the valve was blocked, and no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't squeeze out a single drop.
Others might let a few drops fall, but this one looks like it's been welded on.
They won't let you in at all.
I wonder if Tiger Soul can withstand such pain.
However, Tiger Soul was not worried at all.
Isn't this the kind of pain?
Back when I was in the triangle area, I could go five days without a single drop of discharge and it wouldn't be a problem.
Let alone now, when you can be improving your strength, you have this kind of reaction.
