Chapter 161 Knowing People Unclear (First Update Celebrating Cold Blood Master He Meng)

Jamaari chose to come to the small courtyard at noon, not only to inquire about the situation but also to enjoy a meal at the restaurant.

Besides him in the private room were Qu Jianlei, Xiao Qin, and Black Panther.

He assumed no one could hear him, so he openly asked, ”Jian Lei, what direction are you continuing to improve on?”

Qu Jianlei answered without hesitation, ”Improve resource utilization, reduce bodily harm, enhance cultivation speed.”

His answer was crisp, but the three listeners were simultaneously taken aback.

Is there a problem with the answer? No, but... this normality is quite outrageous.

Black Panther’s question represented everyone’s feelings, ”In two to three months, can you balance all three?”

Qu Jianlei helplessly rolled his eyes, ”Or I need a break after this? It’s really exhausting.”

The two fell silent, and Jamaari pondered before asking, ”How much can this resource utilization improve?”

After thinking for a while, Qu Jianlei answered, ”At least tenfold.”

The Inspector thought for a moment, raised his wine glass, ”This cup is for Jian Lei, thank you for your hard work, I wish you success soon.”

Qu Jianlei drank a glass of wine, took a deep breath, ”Boss, in the process of estimation, I used quite a few crystals...”

”You won’t be short,” Jamaari waved his hand, ”I’ll arrange for Black Panther to bring them to you in a couple of days.”

Two days later, Black Panther handed over five B-level Crystals to Qu Jianlei.

”The Inspector said, if it’s not enough, let him know... Oh, he asked for the initial successful cultivation method.”

Want to apply it to other attributes? Qu Jianlei was taken aback for a moment, then smiled, ”Let him be.”

What he didn’t expect was that Jamaari took this cultivation plan to verify the tenfold resource utilization.

In the Inspector’s view, Jian Lei is indeed exceptionally talented, but ultimately a bit exuberant.

Young people like to exaggerate, it’s completely normal, he was also arrogant at this age.

Moreover, resource utilization is extremely important; the resources in Central City are not too few but definitely not abundant.

The same resources, if producing one B-level Warrior or ten B-level Warriors, can they be the same?

He didn’t expect to achieve tenfold, achieving six or sevenfold, he would treat it as tenfold for commendation.

If it really reaches tenfold, then it’s not just a matter of how much reward, but this person... he must be utilized significantly!

However, he didn’t want Black Panther to know these thoughts, that guy was reborn and particularly grateful to Jian Lei.

But the Wind Attribute is an unusual attribute, such Ultimate Warriors are few, the key is to be tight-lipped.

More than a month later, while investigating a case, he unexpectedly found a suitable candidate.

It was a descendant of the Douglas Clan, named Mike, around thirty-four or thirty-five years old.

This person has always had a good reputation, generous and stable, the key is... the B-level Warrior of the Douglas Clan died three years ago.

The Thirty-Six Noble Families have an unspoken rule, there must be a B-level Warrior as a pillar, if not, they must be married into the family.

At the very least, one must be hired nominally, and the family provides for them.

If the family loses its B-level Warrior, short-term might not affect much, but long-term, it’s absolutely impossible.

The B-level Warrior of the Douglas Clan was a direct family member, in their prime—far from reaching their lifespan.

So there was no need for this family to hire another B-level Warrior.

There were many sayings about his death, and in the past three years, the family has been contacting B-level Warriors.

But unfortunately, the Douglas Clan previously did not intentionally curry favor with any B-level Warriors.

Central City has a little over sixty B-level Warriors, with two per family among the Thirty-Six Noble Families not being enough to distribute.

Some well-related B-level Warriors promised to help protect the Douglas Clan, but nominal hiring was off the table.

In the past three years, the Douglas Clan has been quite low-key in their actions, but their influence has been continuously shrinking.

At most ten years, if no nominal B-level Warrior appears in the Douglas Clan, the consequences will be severe.

Jamaari wasn’t very familiar with Mike, but he believed the other party wouldn’t dare defy his words.

Even if the B-level Warrior of the Douglas Clan were still alive, he wouldn’t dare to disregard the Inspector.

The Inspector, in a caring tone for the younger generation, inquired about Mike’s cultivation, and how long until he can advance to B-level.

Mike was surprised and honored, expressing that B-level is elusive, and it would take at least twenty more years to accumulate.

Jamaari pretended not to know the other’s attribute, casually asking, resulting in the answer being Wind Attribute.

Then the Inspector said, ”My person developed a cultivation method, coincidentally it’s Wind Attribute, can you help me test it?”

Mike surely had no objections, he was eager to get closer to the Inspector.

Regarding the confidentiality agreement for the cultivation method, it wasn’t a problem at all, it’s basically common sense.

He didn’t even look for someone to witness—doing so would mean he didn’t trust Jamaari, which would offend people.

Although the Inspection Bureau has a fierce reputation, its fairness is widely praised.

Then Mike went to the Inspection Bureau, was blindfolded, and drank a bowl of something unknown.

He was then taken into a sealed space.

The Wind Attribute’s strongest aspect is perception ability; Mike could sense some peculiar devices around.

He couldn’t distinguish the specifics, but identifying one or two was certainly no problem.

Then he calmed himself down, at least this was a normal cultivation mode, not someone trying to harm him.

After the family’s mainstay passed away, he was also one of the promising descendants, having to be cautious.
