It took two days, but the director of the department, Fu Pengju, gave him the approval that afternoon, and the reward of 300 merit points was transferred to his account.
Not only that, Fu Pengju also called him over to ask about the situation. When he learned that he was in such danger in the ancient forest, he couldn't help but criticize him.
"Are you doing a mission? You are risking your life!"
Fu Pengju is so angry!
If something happened to Su Yi in the secret realm of the ancient forest, he would probably be scolded to death by the people above.
Moreover, he, an ordinary beast master, ran to accept a mission that even elite beast masters dared not accept. This was too courageous!
Looking at the dignified director in front of him who was nearly fifty years old, Su Yi did not refute and accepted the criticism "humbly".
"Your most important task now is to study and practice. Even if you want to practice, you can't take such risks. This is an order from your superiors. Do you understand?"
"I understand!"
Su Yi immediately stood up straight.
"Go back, school will start in a few days, don't waste your studies.
For a genius like you, school is the easiest place to obtain high-level resources. Whether it is participating in the state high school league or the national high school league, isn't it more efficient than exploring high-risk secrets for you?
Especially in the National High School League, the top three can get epic-level secret treasures or pet beasts with Hou-level potential. Don’t miss this opportunity in vain!
Let me tell you another news. If nothing else happens, the Global Beast Control Cup competition will be postponed to next year.
In other words, if you can squeeze into the top eight of the National High School League next time, you can represent our country in the Beast Control Cup this time next year.
This is a global event held every four years, and the rewards are pooled together by all countries. The rewards are far more generous than you can imagine!
One of the five powerful countries like us must at least provide a legendary secret treasure and a pet beast with king-level potential as rewards for the Beast Control Cup!"
Fu Pengju said seriously.
Legendary secret treasure?
A pet beast with king-level potential?
Su Yi was very surprised, "Do the five major beast-controlling countries need to provide such rewards? What if the domestic players do not achieve good results and all the medals fall into the hands of foreign players?"
"What else can I do? I am not as skilled as others, but I am willing to admit defeat. This is a big gamble. Not only these rewards, but also the right to explore public secrets, this is what the country really cares about.
Therefore, you must perform well and strive to make another great contribution to the country!"
Fu Pengju encouraged.
"Director, you think too highly of me."
Su Yi shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Although I am jokingly called the strongest ordinary-level beast master, the people participating in the Beast Control Cup competition are all elite-level beast masters. There is a big difference between them. How can I compete with them?"
"What are you afraid of? There is still one year left. Isn't one year enough for you to be promoted to the elite level?" Fu Pengju said displeased.
"This... is enough, but I'm afraid I won't have time to cultivate a third pet beast. So, does our country or the investigation department have a funding policy?"
Su Yi looked at the director expectantly.
"Get out!"
Fu Pengju said angrily: "Your boy has received so many resources and rewards in the Beiyou training camp and the battle for the secret realm. Isn't it enough? Bai Zhiyan, who received the heritage inheritance with you, is not treated as well as you!"
"How can this be compared? Although I do have to thank the country for its cultivation and opportunities, I also worked hard in the Beiyou training camp and the battle for the secret realm..."
"Come on, I know you have made great contributions to the country. Well, if you really get a spot to compete in the Beast Control Cup, I can agree to help you apply for some funding from the ministry."
"Then thank you, Director!"
Seeing that he really agreed, Su Yi was very happy. Although he still didn't know what kind of funding the Special Investigation Department could give him, it was better than nothing!
Speaking of this, he was a little curious and couldn't help but ask: "By the way, why is the good Beast Control Cup postponed to next year?"
"Do you even need to ask? Of course it's because of the Kikushima Kingdom. Although the Kikushima Kingdom is not one of the top five powers, its beast masters are no worse than those two idiots. Now that the Fallen Angel incident has occurred, the impact has been very bad. Naturally, all countries have no intention of going there anymore.
Host the Beast Control Cup.
In fact, it is said that it will be postponed to next year, but whether it will be held next year is still unknown."
Speaking of fallen angels, Fu Pengju's face became obviously solemn.
"Um...what's going on over at Judao now? I heard from Captain Dai that our investigation department sent many investigators to investigate the situation there."
Su Yi asked curiously.
"Why do you ask so much?"
Fu Pengju looked at him strangely.
"Isn't this curious? After all, that fallen angel can escape from the secret realm of the fishing island, maybe it has something to do with me." Su Yi explained.
Seeing him say this, Fu Pengju didn't think much about it, he just shook his head and said:
"The situation is not optimistic. The fallen angel is far more troublesome than imagined. Under her coercion and inducement, the Kikushima royal family and many powerful beast masters joined the so-called Demon Temple and became the apostles of the Demon Temple.
Through these apostles, the fallen angel has essentially taken control of the entire Kikushima. It is estimated that it will not be long before the sporadic resistance forces led by Kikushima's chief assistant will soon be completely eliminated.
In fact, many people who are unwilling to surrender to the fallen angel have fled there and sought asylum in many countries, including our country."
Was Kikushima taken over by the fallen angel queen?
"What on earth do those emperor-level beastmasters on Kikushima think that they are really willing to surrender to an extraordinary creature?"
Su Yi was very surprised.
Although Quasi-God is a dimensionality-reducing blow to a country like Kikushima, it succumbs too quickly!
"This is normal."
Fu Pengju said calmly: "If you don't surrender, you will die. If you surrender, you can get greater power than before. It is not surprising that those beast masters will fall to that fallen angel."
"More power?"
Su Yi looked at him puzzled.
Fu Pengju nodded, "It is said that the fallen angel named the beastmasters who surrendered to her as dukes, marquises, earls, viscounts and barons based on their strength, and divided their territories among them.
And the emperor-level beast master who surrendered to her was canonized as a prince by her. Even an apprentice beast master can achieve a transcendent status like an ancient noble.
Through this system, she has already won over the entire class of beastmasters!"
Su Yi was dumbfounded, "Isn't this a return to the lord enfeoffment system? Can the ordinary people agree?"
"Of course I disagree, but there is nothing we can do. Ordinary people actually have little ability to resist in front of the beast masters. They even have to rely on the protection of the beast masters to protect themselves from the vicious beasts."
Speaking of this, Fu Pengju said with emotion, "In fact, at the beginning of the catastrophe, some people had already predicted that human civilization would inevitably regress.
In fact, many small countries have already implemented a substantial feudal system of lords. The city lord is the local emperor, who has absolute power and no one can check or balance it.
Even if the local people are dissatisfied, they have no ability to resist, or even to move out of town and live elsewhere.
That's a long way off, do you have anything else to do? If not, just go back. School is about to start, so get ready."
Su Yi finally came to his senses and left the office building silently without saying anything.
"It seems that the fallen angel queen has a really great influence on the world, not only on the material level, but also on the ideological level."
Su Yi shook his head and felt a little emotional.
Productivity determines production relations. In the past, science and technology were the primary productive forces, but now, is technology or spiritual energy? And who controls spiritual energy?
That layer of paper has been pierced by the fallen angels. It is estimated that the world will undergo drastic changes soon. It is not ruled out that some beast masters will be influenced by Kikushima and want to obtain more privileges and greater power.
As for where the future world will slide, whether it will be the same as now, whether it will be feudal lords, or whether it will be cyberpunk, no one can tell.
Fortunately, there is no chaos in Longteng Kingdom for the time being.
