Chapter 231: Red Blood War Horse
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
It had been two days since those tumultuous events.
Cao Jin, a junior in the student association, acquired Gao Peng’s mobile phone number through his connections. He called Gao Peng and told him what had happened that day. The person who had been brought to the police station had already given up his accomplices, but when the police had arrived at the building the accomplices were staying in, they had already gone.
Cao Jin specifically reminded Gao Peng that the accomplices might have received news in advanced and escaped! He urged Gao Peng to be especially careful and said that if Gao Peng noticed anything felt off at any time, he could call Cao Jin immediately.
Gao Peng remained silent for a while, and then tactfully said to Cao Jin, “Those people have caused quite a commotion. It’s unthinkable that they would stay in Yuzhou City. They might have moved to another base city.”
Cao Jin didn’t really believe him. In the end, he reminded Gao Peng to be careful again.
The Night Terror Ghost that had been caught wasn’t used to being the subject of experiments.
It could feel that its master had died. This filled the Night Terror Ghost with hatred towards Gao Peng. Whenever Gao Peng moved his hands towards it, it would use its illusion ability to scare Gao Peng.
Unfortunately, every time the illusion ability was used, it was canceled out by Goldie, who stood next to Gao Peng.
Goldie, with its ability to cancel out others’ abilities, was a natural counter to these illusions.
It was like using an illusion charm on a statue or winking to a blind man.
Gao Peng didn’t mind it. As a matter of fact, he seemed to be enjoying it.
It was because he hadn’t seen many illusion abilities before. It was hard to come by a specimen that he could observe. Whether or not it could actually be successfully used as an attack wasn’t important.
He just wanted to test the power and the limit of the illusion ability anyways.
They were separated by a glass wall. The Night Terror Ghost inside the glass kept slamming against it in anger.
It used its illusion ability to turn Gao Peng’s surroundings into hell. The earth cracked beneath Gao Peng’s feet and magma spurted out, while evil demons that were on fire climbed out of the cracks and hungrily looked at Gao Peng.
Gao Peng turned around and saw smaller ghosts at heights that came up to his waist. Gao Peng calmly wrote down on his notebook, “Looks very realistic.”
He used his legs to step on the illusion, and his legs went through it. He felt a slight resistance. He also felt some heat.
Gao Peng lowered his head and wrote in his notebook, “It can affect the other senses, like sense of touch and temperature.”
When it saw that Gao Peng didn’t feel any fear, the Night Terror Ghost changed the illusion, and the environment suddenly changed. The magma beneath his feet and the monsters in front of him all disappeared. The ground beneath him turned into a field of white snow. The walls were covered in ice, forming a pattern. A whistling wind came from the dark corridor.
There was a faint snoring sound coming from the depths of the corridor, as if a wild beast was about to come out from the other end of the corridor.
“Although this isn’t the first time I’ve witnessed an illusion at work, it’s still...” Gao Peng was amazed at the illusion’s level of realism.
Gao Peng suddenly had an idea. If he used monsters with such abilities to open a haunted house or a 4D experience center, he would definitely make a lot of money. It would cost him nothing, so the revenue would be equal to the net profit.
Too bad this Night Terror Ghost won’t listen to my orders. It must really hate me. Gao Peng smiled. He really was a mischievous kid.
Gao Peng tried to appease the Night Terror Ghost behind the glass window. “Okay, that’s enough. We’ve finished testing. Go and rest for a while, otherwise you won’t get a midnight snack.” He pulled down the shades and turned away.
The only sound that could be heard in the room was the angry screams from the Night Terror Ghost. Its illusions were going crazy. Mountains were cracking and there were volcanic eruptions in the corridor... Of course, they were all just illusions.
Xu Qingzhi, standing outside the door, knocked on it and said, “Great Master Gao, Huang Ya is here to see you. He says that he made an appointment.”
“He has an appointment, yes. Bring him in,” Gao Peng replied, not even lifting his head up to look away from the drug he was mixing.
Xu Qingzhi rolled her eyes and left. Great Master Gao. This title made it sound like he was some sort of dealer.
“Ummm...” said Huang Ya as he walked in, feeling somewhat embarrassed. He had asked around and found out very easily that most of the popular drugs that were sold by the Southern Sky Group came from Gao Peng’s laboratory.
He had looked into it even more and found out that there was only one person who worked in this laboratory. That person was Gao Peng...
After the initial shock and a short time to readjust his mental state, Huang Ya was finally able to understand how awesome Gao Peng was.
It turns out that this fellow is truly talented.
“No wonder Master Gao is so skilled. While others are playing, you’re conducting your experiments. This is the reason why you’re so skilled!”
Gao Peng looked at Huang Ya and smiled. “When I first saw you, I thought you were a very serious person.”
Huang Ya laughed brightly. “I’m serious when the situation calls for it. It’s still better to be casual most of the time.”
Huang Ya looked at Gao Peng while he was speaking. He only relaxed when he saw that Gao Peng’s expression hadn’t changed for the worse.
“Did you bring your familiars?”
“Yes.”
“Good. Follow me. I’ve already prepared the required materials.” As he was speaking, Gao Peng opened a door in the laboratory that led to another corridor. He did this so he could bring in the Red Blood War Horse.
The Red Blood War Horse arrogantly looked at its surroundings.
Huang Ya repeatedly told the familiar through their Blood Contract, “My love, he can help you evolve. You don’t need to be so haughty.”
The Red Blood War Horse laughed arrogantly, looked up to the sky, and said, “Why do I need to risk my life?”
Huang Ya felt helpless. If he had known, he wouldn’t have shown it Lu Bu’s Biography. It had become too emotional and thought of itself as some sort of pureblood red hare.”
“Do you want to eat this?” Gao Peng took out a bottle of drugs from the laboratory and regarded the proud horse with a fake smile.
The Red Blood War Horse laughed arrogantly. “I won’t fall for...”
Gao Peng opened the bottle of drugs and an extremely alluring scent started to spread around the laboratory.
Other familiars would only find the scent to be pleasant. However, for the Blood Red War Horse, the scent made the blood in its veins pump harder and increased its heartbeat.
The Blood Red War Horse was tempted, but its pride didn’t allow it to do something so lowly.
Its eyes were starting to spin, the Blood Red War Horse starting to neigh at Huang Ya. It brushed its head against Huang Ya’s shoulder.
“Huang Ya, if you can help me get that drug, I’ll let you ride me once!” the Red Blood War Horse said to Huang Ya.
It knew that Huang Ya had always wanted to ride it, but it had never allowed him to do so. However, for this drug, it was willing to lower its standards a bit.
Huang Ya was moved. If it had been another familiar, he wouldn’t have cared. However, the Red Blood War Horse was an equine type familiar, and it was also very handsome and cool looking. What man wouldn’t want to ride such a cool and handsome looking horse?
However, he had finally found the Red Blood War Horse’s weakness, so Huang Ya wouldn’t agree so easily. He steadied himself and said, “No deal. I get to ride you at least ten times! And a minimum of three hours each time!”
“Don’t push it!” The Blood Red War Horse looked at Huang Ya angrily.
“You don’t want it?” Gao Peng smiled fakely. He let the bottle slip out of his hands. The bottle smashed on the ground and made a loud noise.
“NO!” the Red Blood War Horse’s eyes almost popped out. It was like its heart was bleeding.
Gao Peng stepped on the spilled drug, then slowly took another bottle of the exact same drug out from his coat.
“I still have this drug. As long as you want it, I can make you endless amounts of this drug,” Gao Peng said softly. “And I can make even better drugs than this.”
The Blood Red War Horse gulped. This human, this human is really evil...”
Gao Peng then handed the bottle to Huang Ya. “The drug is now in your master’s hands. How he chooses to use it is up to him. I have no control.”
After he finished speaking, he waved his hands to thank his guest.
Huang Ya cast a thankful glance at Gao Peng, then took the Red Blood War Horse and left.
As for what kind of deal Huang Ya and the Red Blood War Horse made, it was none of Gao Peng’s concern. However, from what he had seen that day, he was able to determine Huang Ya was an intelligent person.
