Electromagnetic Tyrant

Chapter 325 Sky-high fees

"What's so urgent, Xinghuo?" Zhong Ming opened the door and welcomed Ji Xinghuo in.

He didn't have a game today, nor did he go to the club for training. He stayed at home and used expansion magic items to fuse alien species.

Ji Xinghuo looked at him and asked directly: "What did the second brother use?"

"I have already used the Blue Sky Fruit, Red Scale Element and Toad Spirit Egg. You said that the Red Emperor Blood Crystal may have side effects, so I plan to evolve to a high-level alien before using it." Zhong Ming replied: "I will fuse the alien species Of blood burning and flying."

"Did the fusion succeed?" Ji Xinghuo was very concerned.

I almost don't have to worry about whether the heterogeneous fusion will fail, but it is common for other aliens to fail.

Moreover, these two alien species are not within Zhong Ming's career template.

"of course."

Zhong Ming smiled confidently, "Although there is a big gap between me and you now, we are just two alien species, so the fusion will not fail."

"That's good." Ji Xinghuo was happy for him, "You just have one more chance to fuse, so fuse it first."

He took out the ether-friendly alien species.

"Ether affinity?" Zhong Ming was overjoyed. He had heard Ji Xinghuo say it on the phone just now, and he was still very excited to see the alien species with his own eyes.

He is "Fire Maniac", and the six abilities of the professional template include "Aether Sensitivity", which has been fused before.

Etheric Affinity is a "superior ability" with better effects!

The two superpower effects can also be stacked.

Ji Xinghuo handed the alien species to Zhong Ming and said, "This etheric affinity was specially obtained for you when I was in the star realm, but I have too many alien species in my hand. I forgot about it when I gave it to you. Fortunately Remember it today.”

Zhong Ming was speechless.

How could such an important trans-limited alien species be forgotten?

"I will fuse now." Zhong Ming immediately entered the training room with the alien species.

Ji Xinghuo was sitting alone in the living room waiting. The high-end apartment Zhong Ming rented had an area of ​​more than 100 square meters and the location was very good. His family often had dinner here in the past, so he was very familiar with it.

He suddenly thought of something.

Anyway, now that I have a lot of spare money, should I buy a big house for the family so that they can live together?

"Let eldest sister pay attention."

Ji Xinghuo was about to contact Ye Dongyun when his phone vibrated with a series of messages in the family group.

"I succeeded!" Ye Dongyun made a happy expression and sent several messages: "I have merged with Qingluo Heart Root and become a witch planter."

"I will be a stranger from now on."

"Thank you, third brother!"

She was obviously very excited at the moment.

"Congratulations, eldest sister!" Ji Xinghuo replied a message, and Wang Zizhen and Liang Qiu Feiyan also kept sending messages. They were both happy for eldest sister and very envious of her.

At this time, Ye Dongyun initiated a video call and connected the other two people. As soon as her projection appeared, she could not hide the joy on her face. After several people congratulated her, Ye Dongyun said: "We have five siblings, and there are already three A stranger."

Wang Zizhen said loudly: "I will strive to be the fourth."

"Hmph, I won't hold you back." Liangqiu Feiyan clenched her fists, looking like she was going to be serious this time.

Ji Xinghuo was not very optimistic about her.

In fact, except for his second brother Zhong Ming, he is not optimistic about the prospects of the other three family members.

The eldest sister's talent is too poor, her physical fitness is average, and she is afraid of frontal combat.

Although she is determined and self-disciplined, once she decides on a goal, she will work hard in that direction, but talent is more important than hard work, and she is destined not to go very far.

Ji Xinghuo expected that even if he gave his eldest sister enough resources, the upper limit would be a super alien at most.

Liangqiu Feiyan has a little talent, but she is afraid of hardship and tiredness. She is lively and fun-loving, and she only wants to be an Internet celebrity and star.

She may never pass the physical fitness test.

Only Wang Zizhen may still have a little hope and the greatest potential.

He has shown extremely high fighting talent in the game, with quick reactions and careful thinking. Under high pressure, he not only does not deform his operations, but also becomes calmer and performs exceptionally well. He is a competition-type player, which is a very rare ability.

It is a pity that Wang Zizhen lacks perseverance and self-discipline. In the past, he gave up on the path of evolution and became addicted to virtual games because he could not bear the hardship of exercise.

Even in the game, he hates the boring process and can't stick to it.

So I didn’t have much success in playing games.

If Wang Zizhen can get rid of these flaws, he may be able to achieve success on the road of alien evolution.

However, Wang Zizhen is 24 years old and his character has already been established. How easy is it to change his character?

Unless you encounter a huge life change.

"Where's Xiao Ming?" Ye Dongyun realized that Zhong Ming had not connected to the video.

"I'm at the second brother's house, he's fusing alien species." Ji Xinghuo explained, and said: "Sister, you have just become a alien, so don't use expansion magic items to fuse other alien species for the time being. Practice for a few days first, and then divide it into several after you get used to it. times used.”

"Okay." Ye Dongyun nodded repeatedly and asked, "Can the ether refining solvent you gave me be used immediately?"

Ji Xinghuo replied: "It can be used."

When he came back from the star realm this time, he specially bought a batch of ether refining solvent from Chief Hanqiu. One batch can last for 90 days, which is enough for himself and his family to use for a long time.

He details the effects of aetheric refining solvents.

Then, based on his own experience, he helped Ye Dongyun arrange the fusion sequence and the details to pay attention to during practice.

The Witch Plant's class template has six abilities.

No matter what profession, the most difficult one is always the first one. As long as the core abilities are integrated, the success rate of other abilities will not be low.

This is the advantage of professional templates. According to the experience summed up by predecessors, choosing the right alien species will not only have a high success rate of fusion, but also exert a stronger effect and form a system of superpowers.

While he was talking, Zhong Ming walked out with a smile on his face.

"The etheric affinity is really great!" He fused the alien species and immediately felt the powerful effect. He could directly feel the existence of etheric energy. The effect of training would definitely be greatly increased, and he couldn't wait to start right away.

Ji Xinghuo was not surprised at all.

Ether sensitive and ether friendly, these two alien species are compatible with almost all aliens, and the probability of fusion failure is extremely low.

"Sister." Zhong Ming saw the video projection and learned that she had become a stranger, so he quickly congratulated her.

Ji Xinghuo said: "There is one thing I want to say."

The family's attention turned.

"You may have heard of the Ether Research Institute, an institution directly under the Astral Ministry..." Ji Xinghuo told him about today's situation.

Zhong Ming and the other four listened with their eyes wide open.

They do know about the "Aether Research Institute", but it is a legendary institution and ordinary people don't know where it is. The official website of the Astral Ministry only has a simple introduction and no application channels at all.

If Ji Xinghuo didn't tell them, they would never know the inside story for the rest of their lives. It would be like another world.

"Xinghuo, you are really different now." Zhong Ming sighed, "You can have access to big shots like Minister Yan at will."

"yes……"

Ye Dongyun felt even deeper.

She used to be a civil servant, and in the two or three years she worked there, she only had contact with officials at the level of district chief. To her, she was already a superior leader. She could be happy for several days if she could leave an impression in front of the other person.

The Minister of the Astral Ministry is a high-ranking official who can only be seen in official news. From a distance, he looks like a god in the sky.

Ji Xinghuo smiled calmly, "In this era, alien evolution is the fastest way to cross classes."

"That's true." Ye Dongyun felt deeply.

Zhong Ming had already understood this, and Wang Zizhen and Liang Qiu Feiyan were also thoughtful.

Ji Xinghuo said: "Second brother, please go to the Astral Ministry's website now and apply for permission to enter the Aether Research Institute."

"what?"

Zhong Ming looked blank, "Should I apply?"

The third brother made it clear just now that one must be at least the top 300 in the ladder, or the top 100 in the legend, to be eligible to apply for the use of the etheric energy gathering room, and that is just for qualifications, and the Astral Ministry may not approve it.

"I made an agreement with Minister Yan that he will pass your review." Ji Xinghuo said with a smile, "Not only you, but also Manying will also apply for the qualification to use it."

He immediately looked at Ye Dongyun.

"Sister, you have just become a foreigner. The cost-effectiveness of using the ether energy gathering chamber for junior foreigners is very low. With the ether refining solvent, the cultivation efficiency can be fast enough." Ji Xinghuo explained patiently.

In addition to this reason, what is more important is the issue of auditing.

Although Yan Wenzhu would approve Manying and his second brother's application for his own sake, this was still suspected of using power for personal gain.

Manying's talent is unparalleled in the world. After applying, no one will question it.

But the second brother is worse.

Although he is a competitive alien, he has not achieved much fame. He is only an intermediate alien, far from being on the ladder.

It was because he deliberately exaggerated his second brother's talent in front of Yan Wenzhu that Yan Wenzhu agreed.

It would be too much to have another eldest sister who has just become an alien.

This completely breaks the rules.

Even if the payment is made with ether crystals, if someone knows about the situation and leaks it, I won't care. However, Yan Wenzhu and Director Ke, the two main persons in charge, are likely to get into a lot of trouble.

"It's okay, just let Xiao Ming go." Ye Dongyun was very considerate, vaguely guessing some of the inside story, and said softly: "Don't make things difficult for Minister Yan."

Ji Xinghuo breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, Zhong Ming came to his senses and said anxiously: "Xinghuo, didn't you say that the cost of the ether energy gathering room is very expensive?"

"It's a bit expensive, but I can afford it." Ji Xinghuo looked relaxed.

Zhong Ming asked: "How much is it?"

Ji Xinghuo didn't disclose the price just now. Anyway, he would know sooner or later, so he replied: "If you practice for 12 hours a day, 4 of them have to enter the ether energy gathering room. Intermediate aliens use the second level ether energy gathering room." The most cost-effective, the cost for one day is 400 million Asian dollars.”

This is still paid with ether crystals, only half the price.

If you pay in cash, the second-level ether energy gathering room costs 200 million Asian dollars per hour, and one day of practice costs 800 million Asian dollars.

"hiss……"

Several people gasped in unison.

Liangqiu Feiyan quickly calculated: "400 million a day, 1.2 million a month, and 14.4 billion if you practice for a whole year!"

As she counted, her eyes widened.

"Xinghuo, otherwise let's forget it." Zhong Ming himself was frightened. He was a competitive player in the second-tier league. His income was very high, but the average annual income was only more than 10 million. He also had to pay taxes. millions.

<divclass="contentadv">To go to the Aether Research Institute to practice for one day now would cost almost a year's income, which is beyond imagination.

"I told you, I can afford it, so I don't have to worry about money."

Ji Xinghuo had already passed.

Six ether crystals a month is really nothing.

It's just equivalent to two Blue Sky Fruits.

When I ran out of ether crystals in my hand, I went back to Sister Ren's secret realm to pick another batch of fruits and exchange them with the Void Spirit Guest.

He was preparing for the future. In the future, he might be away from the earth often. The family needed a backbone, so he devoted all his resources to training his second brother, so that he would have no worries.

"But 14.4 billion a year makes my heart a little unbearable." Zhong Ming smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I only make a few million a year..."

"Hahaha……"

Ji Xinghuo laughed, "Now you are only using the second-level ether energy-concentrating room. In the future, if you are promoted to a super alien, you will have to use the third-level ether energy-concentrating room. It will last longer every day and cost almost 70 billion a year." "

"Holy shit!" Zhong Ming's hands were trembling.

Ye Dongyun and the other three were also dumbfounded. They could not imagine how long it would take them to earn so much money. 70 billion Asian dollars.

Ji Xinghuo said seriously: "The evolution of aliens is not only the fastest way to transcend classes, but also the fastest way to make money."

"Second brother, when your strength stabilizes, I will take you to the star realm."

"Maybe it's difficult for other people to make money, but I'm different." Ji Xinghuo smiled confidently, "When the time comes, you will know that money on earth is not actually that valuable. Billions are just a number."

Several people looked at each other in shock.

Zhong Ming nodded heavily, "Then I look forward to you taking me flying."

He immediately logged into the official website of the Astral Ministry, and sure enough, he found something different from before.

There is an additional option to apply for the Ether Energy Concentration Room in the "Personal Center".

After filling in the information, Zhong Ming submitted the application.

"The next step is to wait for the review to pass." Ji Xinghuo turned on the big screen in the living room, "Manying has a game tonight, do you want to watch it together?"

"I want to see!"

"Come here now."

A moment later, the five siblings gathered at Zhong Ming's home, had dinner together, and then watched the game.

This is just a regular game, but it has attracted several times the number of viewers. The number of online viewers worldwide has exceeded one billion.

In the game live broadcast rooms of various channels, dense barrages passed by.

The family listened to the host's chat before the show started.

Ji Xinghuo's name has been mentioned frequently, even as a theme. From being ranked first on the ladder to being ranked first on the ladder today, the original doubts have long since disappeared and are now more of a curiosity.

The game starts soon.

At the opening ceremony, amid the cheers of hundreds of thousands of spectators, Zhao Manying was the last one to appear as the core of the team. A close-up view of her appeared on the screen, occupying most of the screen with her stunning appearance, arousing praise from countless online viewers.

The host was full of praise for her strength and beauty.

"Sword Immortal seems to be different from usual today..." the attentive female host noticed.

"What's the difference?" asked the host next to him.

The female host immediately replied: "She is radiant and charming. Even if I am not gay, I am very moved when I see Jianxian's appearance. Jianxian is obviously nourished by love and is enviable."

The male hosts on the commentary desk were silent.

On the Internet and in the live broadcast room, the barrage became fierce, arousing heated discussions, and also rushed to the hot search list on social media.

"Revenge for seizing your wife is irreconcilable!" Someone immediately started posting comments.

"The knife is killing, kill Ji Gou."

"It's useless for you to keep surfing the Internet, Ji Xinghuo is now number one on the ladder!"

"That's right."

"I gave you the knife in front of Ji Xinghuo. He stood still and let them chop him. He couldn't even hurt a hair."

"This is the strength of the first person below the King of Heaven."

"Which heavenly king should take action quickly? Kill Ji Xinghuo with a bolt of lightning. Damn it, I envy him so much, wuwuwu..."

The quarrel on the Internet is almost going crazy, but the difference is that before, most people criticized Ji Xinghuo, but now there are many people supporting Ji Xinghuo. There is not much difference in the number of people on both sides, and people on both sides can be seen arguing fiercely everywhere.

However, there are more people watching the show.

"It's really interesting, haha!" Liangqiu Feiyan said with a smile on her face, "Ever since I met Sister Manying, what I like most is watching people quarrel with Third Brother over her. It's very satisfying."

She came over and asked curiously: "Third brother, was it better to say goodbye than to get married last night?"

"Ahem..."

Ji Xinghuo coughed dryly and did not answer, but it was regarded as acquiescence.

Zhong Ming gave him a thumbs up.

Wang Zizhen shook his head and said: "I used to watch people arguing online, but now the person involved is sitting next to me. It feels amazing."

"The third brother has a girlfriend, when will you fall in love?" the eldest sister Ye Dongyun asked suddenly.

Zhong Ming spread his hands and said, "We are still young, so there is no rush. If we want to talk, it's eldest sister, you should talk first."

"That's right, falling in love is so boring." Liang Qiu Feiyan agreed.

Among the five siblings, except Ji Xinghuo, only Zhong Ming had a girlfriend when he was in college, but they broke up later.

In this day and age, there are many celibates.

Many people never fall in love, let alone get married. They pursue freedom in life wholeheartedly and do not want to be bound by their partners.

The number of original families has been greatly reduced. Even if there are public families, the Asia-Pacific community has irreversibly become an atomized society.

"I haven't met anyone I'm interested in." Ye Dongyun sighed, "Otherwise, I would be quite happy to have a few relationships. If the time comes in the future, I would also be willing to get married and have children to add a few more members to our family."

Ji Xinghuo comforted: "Sister, you will meet me."

"I'd like to lend you some good words." Ye Dongyun nodded, his expression becoming solemn: "But I want to remind everyone, because we have Xinghuo in our family, if you have a boyfriend or girlfriend, you must speak up in time, and we can tell whether it is sincere or not. Pretend to get close to Starfire.”

Hearing this, Ji Xinghuo couldn't help but look at her. In fact, he had thought about it, but it was not suitable for him to say.

As the eldest sister, Ye Dongyun should give her a warning.

"understood."

"We are not fools, we are not that easy to deceive."

Zhong Ming and Liang Qiu Feiyan immediately expressed their opinions, and Wang Zizhen even said: "I don't want to talk about a girlfriend at all. Women will only affect my exercise, delay my becoming a different person, and are a stumbling block on the road of evolution."

"Hahahaha..." Everyone laughed.

While talking and laughing, the family finished watching the game. Without any surprise, Zhao Manying led the team to victory.

"I'm going to pick up Manying."

Ji Xinghuo said goodbye to his family, drove the maglev to Tianqin Stadium, and picked up Zhao Manying to have a midnight snack together.

By the way, he told her about the Aether Research Laboratory.

"Aether energy gathering room!"

Zhao Manying was very surprised, "I have heard about it before, but there is no application channel. Even if the Emperor Star Club came forward to find connections, there has been no follow-up. I heard that most of the people who can obtain the qualifications are strangers from the government and the military."

"You must be qualified to enter the Aether Research Laboratory." Ji Xinghuo reacted, "The people from the Shi family deliberately stumbled."

With Zhao Manying's talent and reputation, all he had to do was apply.

And she is not short of money either.

Ji Xinghuo had been wondering why Zhao Manying met all the conditions but didn't use the ether energy gathering room.

It turned out that people from the Shi family were behind the scenes.

"Hmph..." Zhao Manying's eyes turned cold, "Shi Renzhong repeatedly said that he was looking for a relationship, but there was no result. Shi Hongyi's intention should be behind it."

Ji Xinghuo analyzed: "Your father was killed by him, and now you have joined the Emperor Star Club. Knowing your strength and talent, you will definitely be afraid of you."

"You can't threaten the Shi family yet, and you can make money for them. Shi Hongyi will not easily do evil things, but he will not allow you to increase your strength too quickly. Of course, you must prevent you from entering the Ether Research Institute."

Zhao Manying stopped his chopsticks and said, "I will settle this account with Shi Hongyi."

"How did Shi Renzhong react today?" Ji Xinghuo asked.

He revealed to Zhao Manying yesterday that the Qianyuan Meeting involved Shi Daoyuan, but there has been no official announcement yet.

"No, everything remains as usual." Zhao Manying shook his head gently.

Ji Xinghuo said: "He should be very happy."

Shi Hongyi has five children. The only ones who are really promising and competing are Shi Daoyuan and Shi Renzhong. Now that Shi Daoyuan is caught, he will definitely be sentenced to death, so Shi Renzhong becomes the only heir.

Of course, it is not ruled out that Shi Hongyi will have several more children.

For a king, Shi Hongyi, who is in his early 90s, is still very young, and it is too early to talk about his successor.

However, Shi Renzhong's status in the family has definitely risen sharply, and his resources and power will also increase significantly.

"Let's not talk about him anymore."

Zhao Manying was not interested in discussing his enemy's family affairs.

The two finished their midnight snack together and returned to Zhao Manying's home in Weiyang Building. As soon as she entered the door, her eyes were as charming as silk and her cheeks were flushed.

With her super alien physical fitness, she had already recovered a long time ago.

Ji Xinghuo also enjoyed it.

He felt the different styles of Zhao Manying and Sister Ren. Only those who have experienced them can know the taste.

In the latter half of the night, the two embraced each other and fell asleep.

The next day.

Ji Xinghuo dressed up and went out with Zhao Manying, taking his second brother Zhong Ming with him to the Ether Research Institute.

Two chapters combined into one 6000 words.
