“No, they’re all modified from regular organisms.”

“They’re all dead?”

“Most are dead, but a portion hasn’t died yet.”

Chen Zhao strolled to a shelf. Suddenly, an octopus in a jar slammed against the side of the jaw. Chen Zhao freaked out and almost twisted his ankle. He seemed to have missed his step.

Looking down, he realized he’d stepped onto a switch. A door opened up on the wall.

“Huh?”

“You actually found a switch here. I didn’t even discover it.”

“Should we go in and look?” Chen Zhao didn’t dare go in alone. It felt safer to be with Blackie.

After entering through the secret door, they followed the snaking tunnel down. A few minutes later, they reached the bottom.

It was a research lab with all kinds of torture devices. There were strange skeletons carved onto the tools.

Blackie studied them. “It looks like the former went against some taboos.”

“What taboos?”

“It experimented on living beings. The rule of us Soulbringers is that it’s forbidden to directly kill any living beings. However, it did living experiments.”

There was a bookshelf on the side with many books on it. Chen Zhao took one down. It was actually a medical book.

The former Soulbringer clearly did experiments on humans too. Chen Zhao looked through the book and was unexpectedly interested.

“Blackie, can I bring this book out to read?”

“No. Many of the things here are too ancient. If you take them out, they’ll corrode completely. If you want to read them, you can visit at any time. The hellhounds know you anyway.”

“Okay.”

Chen Zhao realized that he wasn’t the first person to use demonic crystals. This previous guy had also experimented with it. The book contained notes and research on this too.

The content was great inspiration for Chen Zhao. To him, the book was like a treasure chest.

However, the last thing the author wrote was that his experiments were never successful because there weren’t enough demonic crystals.

The book’s content was neither Chinese nor Western medicine. It didn’t even belong to this world.

This was probably demonic medicine!

It was developed by a demon and the contents touched on some medication created with materials from Hell. Some were used on humans, some on demons, and others could be used on animals too.

“Blackie, can you Soulbringers enter Hell too?”

“We’re a type of demon. Is it strange for us to go into Hell?”

“Okay, pretend I didn’t ask.” Chen Zhao put down the book. He wanted to take it out, but Blackie was right. If he took it out, the book would disappear instantly. The content in the book wasn’t suitable to appear in the world either.

“Did they finish fighting?”

“A long time ago.”

“Who won?”

“Carrie.”

“She beat Beelzebub and Raymond?”

“Yes.”

“But you said Beelzebub and Raymond are stronger.”

“I also said that they can’t use their true strength.”

When Chen Zhao and Blackie walked out of the castle, Carrie was still chasing after Beelzebub and Raymond.

The scene was quite odd. A white fox the size of a kitten was chasing two beasts that were 100 times her size. Of course, there was also a black cloud that kept following them.

However, when Chen Zhao came over, Carrie had already given up on chasing after the two. She jumped into Chen Zhao’s arms.

“Master, I’m powerful, right?”

“Uh...yes.”

“Then how about we kill their projections? You only need me.”

“Ha...”

If I kill anyone, I’ll kill all of you, Chen Zhao thought. Can’t you all act more like normal pets?

If they were regular pets, it was okay even if they fooled around like huskies, as long as they didn’t demolish his home.

Thank god they were fighting in Blackie’s new home. If they fought outside, Chen Zhao’s new home would probably be flattened already.

After leaving Blackie’s new home, they appeared in the basement.

Chen Zhao’s phone rang. It was Ethan. “Chen, where did you go? I called you but there was no signal. I thought you got buried alive by someone.”

“Do you need anything?”

“There’s business. This client is at Angel Beach.”

“Who is it? What’s the price?”

“Two hundred dollars.”

“That’s so cheap.”

“Go take a look.”

“Oh, you know him?”

“I know of her, but I don’t know her.”

“A celebrity?”

“No, regular person.”

“Okay, I’ll go look. I wonder what kind of person will make you ask so directly.”

Chen Zhao called Vincent next. “Vincent, come to my house in 20 minutes. One hundred dollars.”

After getting Daniel’s payment, Chen Zhao’s wallet became much thicker. He could pay more generously too.

Vincent arrived within 20 minutes.

“Chen, get on. Where are we going?”

“Angel Beach. Hurry, the patient has waited for a long time.”

“How come you have a new pet? What’s its name?” Vincent saw the white fox jump in from the rearview mirror. Curious, he asked, “Is it a fox?”

“Her name is Carrie. Carrie, this is Vincent.” Carrie stood in the backseat, looking here and there.

She looked 100 times more attractive than Beelzebub and Raymond. Everyone would genuinely like her at first glance.

“Chen, how do you train them? How come every pet has such unusual behaviors in your hands? Are you a Druid?”

“You’re not the first person to ask me that.”

Angel Beach was a very popular beach. There were bikini-clad beauties everywhere. The ocean and beach were filled with people.

“Chen, where’s your patient? If it’s someone drowning, he’s probably gone to see God already.” Vincent sat in the car. He was enjoying the groups of sexy girls too.

Chen Zhao rolled his eyes as he looked at the sea of people. If someone was drowning, it wouldn’t be his job to save him either. There were lifeguards here.

“I’ll ask Ethan.”

“Ethan, I’m already at Angel Beach. Where’s the client you said?”

“In the lifeguard team,” Ethan said.

Chen Zhao brought his three pets off the car. Vincent stuck his head out and said, “Chen, should I wait for you here?”

“I don’t know how long it’ll take.”

“If you give me 100 more dollars, I can wait until the end of time.”

“Fine. Here’s a hundred.”

Chen Zhao walked toward the lifeguard team. A muscle man was standing at the top of a small wooden tower. He wore red swimming trunks and had binoculars hanging around his neck. There was an inflatable next to him.

“Hey, how can I help you?” He looked down at Chen Zhao.

“I’m a doctor. I heard someone needs treatment here.”

“Ethan sent you?”

“Yes.”

The muscle man scanned Chen Zhao and then waved his hand. “Follow me.”
