"Hey?"

"Mr. Bai, is this a convenient time for you? Our new drug has arrived. If it's convenient, you can come here now to test it," Manager Wang said.

"it is good."

Bai Shuodong nodded, then hung up the phone. He smiled and waved to the two people in the training room, saying, "Sorry, I have something to do now, so I won't stay here."

"Great!"

Jiang Lin smiled and was fully recovered.

"I'll make you happy!"

Bai Shuodong kicked Jiang Lin away instantly, sending him sprawling to the side, where he lay there like a corpse, his face filled with resentment.

Hedong in thirty years and Hexi in thirty years.

Don't bully young poor!

"Be careful when you go out. You can contact me if you need anything," Xia Yanxin said, patting his shoulder.

"You didn't wipe the oil off your hands."

"Hey hey hey!"

"Hey! I think you deserve a beating! Give me your face!"

"Ah! No!~"

...

Half an hour later

Bai Shuodong stood in front of Giant Pharmaceuticals. This time, he didn't use the Thousand Faces disguise. After all, he could get free drugs, so there was no need to pretend to be an accomplice.

He walked into the hall in casual clothes, with a black cat perched on his shoulder.

For some reason, the black cat actually followed him out this time. It seems to have been following him much more frequently lately. Before, he never saw it during the day, giving him the feeling that he was raising it virtually.

Why did you come with me?

"Meow~"

"Oh, you mean, I got the Sky-Drawing Stone from them before, and you're interested in that kind of thing, so you wanted to come along and ask for some."

"Meow meow meow."

"You want more of this? To help replenish your strength, right?"

"Meow~"

"Okay, don't worry, I'll definitely cooperate with you later!" Bai Shuodong patted its head with a relaxed smile on his face.

...

"Mr. Bai! You've arrived!"

The moment the receptionist saw him, his face instantly lit up with a smile, but the smile was different from before. It wasn't the obsequious smile he had shown when facing the mage; instead, it was a forced smile that was closer to fear.

Tsk!

This is the status of a forbidden walker!

"Hmm, Xiao Wang asked me to come here, but where is he?" Bai Shuodong asked, arms crossed.

"He's waiting for you in his office! I'll take you there right now!" the waiter said hurriedly.

"Hmph!"

Bai Shuodong snorted, casually took out a poison candy from his storage space, popped it into his mouth, and slowly followed him upstairs.

...

office

"Mr. Bai! Welcome, welcome!"

Manager Wang greeted him with a bright smile, while his gaze unconsciously drifted to the black cat on Bai Shuodong's shoulder, revealing an invisible and subtle sensory connection.

A powerful individual like him is fully capable of using mental detection without the opponent noticing; that's the difference in strength.

However...

The expected panel did not appear. Manager Wang felt as if his mental perception had fallen into an abyss, and he could not sense anything.

The black cat stared at him, its eyes gradually sharpening. At the same time, its figure seemed to rapidly enlarge in a short period of time. Although the position of its eyes had not changed, he felt that the other party was getting closer and closer, as if it would devour him at any moment.

"what....!"

Manager Wang stumbled and fell to the ground with a thud. When he came to his senses, his back was covered in a fine layer of cold sweat.

That black cat is strange!

Something's very wrong!

For something to make me feel this death-like danger, its level must be extraordinary!

"Huh? Why are you kneeling down to me?"

Bai Shuodong asked with a smile.

"My legs feel a little weak after standing for a long time."

Manager Wang wiped the sweat from his brow and said with a forced smile, "Well... um, I've already prepared a separate testing room for you. All the equipment is ready and testing can begin at any time."

"Ah."

Bai Shuodong nodded and smiled, then said, "There's no rush with the testing. Your bad habit of using mental detection so casually makes it very uncomfortable."

"Heh...hehe...my question."

Manager Wang smiled awkwardly. He never dreamed that the black cat on Bai Shuodong's body was actually a top-tier beast with at least second- or even third-tier combat power.

Not a buddy?

You have this pet and you're using it for drug testing?

Are you kidding me?

Who would have thought of that?

Damn! Those Forbidden Walkers are definitely a bunch of lunatics! We absolutely can't let our guard down! Who knows what kind of crazy things they might do next!

“Then you have to offer some compensation. Without enough compensation… it won’t be satisfied.” Bai Shuodong said, gently stroking the black cat’s fur.

"Then it will..."

"The more spatial treasures, the better."

"However, as you should know, treasures of the spatial type are all priceless, and even I can't afford many..." Manager Wang immediately put on a bitter face, looking extremely uncomfortable.

The black cat looked up again.

His golden vertical pupils flickered slightly.

"thump!"

Manager Wang collapsed to the ground again, his eyes filled with disbelief and terror. He muttered to himself, "A...a divine beast? A divine beast? How could you have a real divine beast with you?"

"..."

Bai Shuodong shrugged casually, feeling somewhat surprised.

He already knew that the black cat was a divine beast and that this guy was not weak, but he never expected that it could scare Manager Wang, who was guaranteed to be at least level two, into such a state. It seems that the reputation of the divine beast is much stronger than he imagined.

"Knowing it's a divine beast, what are you hesitating for? Hurry up and take out your space-type treasures!"

"Yes...yes! I'll go get it right away!"

Manager Wang crawled on all fours on the ground without even standing up, clearly terrified beyond measure; the feeling was even more desperate than if he had seen a forbidden traveler.

'Is this guy using illusion magic?'

Bai Shuodong couldn't help but think to himself.

Previously, when he was staring at the black cat, it had pulled him into a mental illusion, allowing him to see the abyss dragon and gain forbidden power.

But for some reason, the black cat kept saying that it wasn't a dragon, but a poisonous snake.

Manager Wang must have seen some kind of illusion, just like me. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so terrified. What he saw must have been even more terrifying than what I saw. I'm really curious about what he saw.

...

the other side

Manager Wang stumbled and scrambled into the corridor, and only after turning two corners and entering a special secret room, confirming that the black cat's senses did not reach this area, did he finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"hu~hu~"

He leaned against the wall, panting heavily; the back of his shirt was soaked with cold sweat.

"A divine beast... an undisputed divine beast..."

Just now, he didn't see any illusions, only a notification from the spirit world.

[Notification: The Black Cat has used Divine Pressure on you, reducing all your attributes by 99.8% and all your resistances by 99.7%]

This is... the power of a 'god'!
