Chapter 77: Could This Really Be Happening?
"Chen Ye, have you ever heard of Elemental Demons?"
"Elemental Demons?"
"Yes! Elemental Demons are a type of monster. But unlike other monsters, the crystals in their brains can grant humans superpowers!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Ye immediately understood that his father, Chairman Chen, must have been involved in obtaining the brain of an Elemental Demon for him.
"Why have I never heard of this kind of monster before?"
"That's because Elemental Demons are extremely rare. It's possible for decades to pass without encountering one. Oh, by the way, there was a woman in Japan who bonded with a B-class hero, but her future seemed hopeless. Later, she obtained the crystal of a Water Elemental Demon and became an ability user who could control water. Until today, she has reached the rank of a fifth-tier elite."
"Ah? So, she must have a lot of water then?"
"...Regarding Elemental Demons, there are currently known to be four types: Wind, Fire, Water, and Electricity. As for the Electrical Elemental Demon, it only appeared once since the invasion of monsters and then disappeared without a trace. The other three Elemental Demons have appeared several times in the past few decades."
"Teacher, does this mean there's a new Elemental Demon?"
"Yes! Just yesterday, someone discovered traces of a Fire Elemental Demon in the primitive forest near Daxing."
"Daxing? Isn't that the territory of monsters? Isn't it very dangerous to go there?"
"For ordinary people, it's definitely certain death. However, for experts, it's uncertain."
"So, Teacher, are you telling me to keep my potential points because of the Elemental Demon?"
"Yes, to unleash elemental abilities, one needs strong mental power. If the crystal of this Elemental Demon ends up in your hands, you can allocate all your potential points to the mental attribute and become a Fire-type ability user directly."
"But how can you be sure that the crystal of the Elemental Demon will end up in my hands?"
"The principal has received an invitation from your father to assist him in hunting Elemental Demons. Chairman Chen wouldn't take such a risk suddenly for himself. With his expertise in martial arts, he doesn't need the crystal of an Elemental Demon. It can only be for you."
Upon hearing this, Chen Ye fell silent.
Although Lao Liu didn't elaborate, he knew that venturing into the monsters' territory to hunt Elemental Demons was definitely very dangerous.
For his son, Chairman Chen really...
To Chen Ye's surprise, the principal actually accepted Chairman Chen's invitation and agreed to go on this risky venture with him? Have their relationship reached such a level?
Chen Ye asked, "Teacher, why would the principal be willing to help my father so much? He should want the crystal of the Elemental Demon for himself, right?"
Lao Liu replied, "Don't overthink it. The principal has never married, let alone had children. What does he need the crystal of an Elemental Demon for? The reason he's willing to accept your father's invitation, aside from their old classmate relationship, is also partly for Tang Zichen."
"For Tang Zichen?"
"Yes! I don't know what you've done, but you've managed to captivate Tang Zichen's heart so much that even the principal at the frontline knows about Tang Zichen's feelings... The principal has to personally assist Chairman Chen in this favor for the sake of Tang Zichen. He holds Tang Zichen in high regard."
"..."
Goodness.
He thought the principal was showing him some respect!
Turns out, the principal is indirectly helping him for Tang Zichen!
"Alright! Teacher, I understand."
"Hmm, keep your potential points untouched for now; it won't harm you... Also, about the Elemental Demon matter, it's of utmost importance. Don't spread it around. If it becomes widely known, all the top experts from around the globe will compete for the crystal of the Elemental Demon. It would be extremely detrimental to your father and the principal if it came to that."
"Don't worry, Teacher, I'm not a fool."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Ye let out a heavy sigh.
Knowing Chairman Chen's intentions, he felt a sense of indescribable gratitude in his heart.
For the sake of his son, Chairman Chen's intentions were truly thoughtful.
Originally, Chen Ye had intended to stop Chairman Chen from taking risks.
But then he had a change of heart. He thought it would be quite interesting to obtain Fire-type superpowers.
Imagining himself with Fire-type superpowers...
In Chen Ye's mind, a picture involuntarily emerged: a bald head, left hand ablaze with fire, right hand clenched into a fist. He was both a master and an invincible warrior.
Very cool!!
Most importantly, the potential points he obtained in the secret realm would also come in handy.
So, Chen Ye indeed didn't want to easily give up on this Fire Elemental Demon.
After pondering for a moment, he came up with a rather suitable method...
Shortly after.
Chen Ye called Chairman Chen.
"What's up again?"
"Dad, I already know you're planning to go to Daxing..."
"Who told you this?"
"My teacher."
"This Liu is so unreliable."
Chen Ye hurriedly asked, "I want to know, how confident are you about this trip to Daxing?"
"No matter how much confidence I have, I have to give it a try." Chairman Chen snorted and said, "Otherwise, with your qualifications, can you match up to that girl from the Tang family?"
"...Dad, actually your son, I'm very outstanding."
"Just you? Besides inheriting my excellent looks, what other advantages do you have?"
Chen Ye: "..."
"Furthermore, I don't need you to worry about my relationship with Tang Zichen. She has said that after she graduates, she'll give birth to several chubby babies for me."
Chen Ye didn't elaborate much on his relationship with Tang Zichen.
Because the relationship between them had indeed surpassed normal friendship, belonging to a state beyond friends but not yet lovers.
If everything went smoothly, Tang Zichen's future A would depend on Chen Ye's support...
On the phone, Chairman Chen suddenly sighed, "Chen Ye, when I was in college, there was a female classmate with an S-level talent who was in a relationship with a B-level talent, similar to your situation with Tang Zichen... At that time, no one was optimistic about them. In the face of opposition, that classmate remained steadfast. However, as she grew stronger, she gained more and more prestige, enjoying honor and applause wherever she went."
"What about the male counterpart! It's completely the opposite. No matter where he went, others pointed fingers at him. The gazes he received were mostly disdainful, and some people even openly mocked him. Unfortunately, his pride was strong, and ultimately, unable to bear the humiliation, he chose to end his life!"
"After receiving the news, that female classmate couldn't bear the blow and went insane. In the end, she joined radicals and died at the hands of the law enforcement team."
Although Chairman Chen didn't elaborate, it was evident that the story of the male and female in this story was quite tragic.
Chairman Chen continued, "Chen Ye, although you don't usually show it much, I know that your pride is also strong... You might not feel much now, but when you get married and time passes, you won't be able to withstand this kind of pressure! Marriage is never just about two people. In this world, men and women have never truly been equal. Women are supported by men and enjoy the fruits of men's labor, which is only natural."
"Men, however, cannot do the same!"
"So, if you really intend to get along well with the girl from the Tang family, you have to try your best to make yourself outstanding, keep up with her pace at least. Understand?"
"I can still help you a bit now, but in the future, it will all depend on you."
"I don't want the tragedy of that female classmate to happen to you and Tang Zichen..."
