Chapter 173: Attribute Breaking 100 (3)

“Bill, work hard in the future. Don’t disappoint the King.”

The head patted Zhou Jing’s shoulder with a smile.

The other higher-ups of the workshop also smiled warmly at him.

They were also proud to have unearthed a talent like Bill.

After today, Bill would receive the attention of the King. As long as nothing went wrong in the future, he would definitely rise to the top. Naturally, they would not let their relationship with him cool down.

Zhou Jing thanked him formally as he thought about Bill’s next move.

It was imperative to join this “core technology” research team.

Not only was it to learn, but if he could really develop a new blood potion, the impact would be huge. It would affect the entire Empire.

Perhaps he wouldn’t even have to clear his life objectives anymore. The Information State Particles he could gain would explode and directly transform Bill into an Eternal Apostle. This was another “clearing route.”

As for the scheme of the tribes to regain their independence, he still had to find an opportunity to tell the royal family. Currently, Zhou Jing had a good impression of the Empire and was more inclined toward it.

However, this matter was not suitable for him to speak as Bill. Perhaps after Bill stabilized his current status and made research results, he could think of a way to introduce Jason to the royal family and make Jason speak about it.

At the same time, he could use the status of one apostle to increase the status of the other apostle, mutually benefitting each other.

Just as Zhou Jing was deep in thought, Keriber walked up and greeted him with a smile.

“Bill, it’s up to you from now on. I hope the hunters will get to use the new potion you developed.”

“I’ll work hard.” Zhou Jing nodded. “By the way, do you have any plans to go for a sixth enhancement? If there are any results in the future, I can give it straight to you.”

“I’m an old bag of bones, so I won’t continue to enhance anymore.” Keriber smiled and shook his head. Suddenly, he asked curiously, “By the way, I heard that you have a good relationship with one of our hunters.”

“Jason? Yes, he and I are old friends. When I first came to the capital, he helped me a lot.”

Zhou Jing nodded and spoke as if it was a serious matter.

“Jason often talked about you as well. He said that you were a talent and always remembered how you saved him back then.”

“No, I’m sure I never said that…”

Zhou Jing could not expose the other party’s social flattery, so he could only smile.

“You can come and find him more often in the future.”

Keriber patted Zhou Jing on the shoulder.

“I will.” Zhou Jing changed the topic and asked curiously, “By the way, you and Irene both have five enhancements. May I ask who’s stronger?”

“Hard to say. In strength and defense, I’m better. In speed and perception, Irene is better.”

Keriber did not seem to want to compare against her.

“Alright, I’ll be in the base. If you encounter anything, just look for me.” He smiled at Zhou Jing and ended the conversation there.

Zhou Jing looked at his departing figure thoughtfully.

He realized that when facing an “intellectual” like him, Keriber was not as bold as he had been with the hunters. He remained polite and courteous.

“Looks like there’s still a difference in identity. They respect me, but I’m not one of them.”?Zhou Jing thought to himself.

...

After the meeting with the King, two royal guards accepted the order the next day and became his bodyguards. They followed him wherever he went.

Zhou Jing got to know them and realized that both of them were at the Second Enhancement, which was enough to show the importance the Royal Family gave him.

However, he was still working in the Hunter Workshop and had yet to be called to join the research of “core technology.”

On the third day after getting the two guards, an uninvited guest personally came to the workshop to seek an audience with Zhou Jing.

Zhou Jing walked into the reception room of the workshop and saw a fat, unfamiliar man.

“May I know who you are?”

Zhou Jing asked curiously.

Hearing this, the fatty stood up unhurriedly and stretched out his large hand filled with gem rings towards Zhou Jing, revealing a rather amiable smile.

“Hello, I’m the king’s Privy Chancellor, Roman.”

“This guy’s Roman?!”

Zhou Jing perked up.

After spending so much time in the capital, he finally saw this ambitious person behind the scenes!

He shook hands with him and subconsciously used the interface to detect his attributes.

In the next second, the interface displayed a message that left him speechless.
