Chapter 487: Dominance on Display
Upon hearing Zhao Hai's words, Smith couldn't help but laugh. He looked at Lando and said, "Father, Little Hai mentioned this to me before. However, it’s winter now, and those rare plants are hard to find. But it seems we need to do our best to help Little Hai search for those plants. If he can really develop an antidote, it would be extremely important for us."
Lando nodded and said, "Alright, issue an order for the family to search for various rare plants with all their might. The more, the better. By the way, Little Hai, do you want any magical beasts?"
Zhao Hai nodded and replied, "Yes, of course! Those magical beasts can also be used in medicine, and the more varieties, the better."
Lando nodded and glanced at everyone in the room, saying, "Did you all hear that? Cooperate fully with Little Hai." The others did not dare to be negligent and immediately responded. They knew that this matter concerned the entire Karlqi Family, so they didn’t dare have the slightest bit of slack.
Zhao Hai looked at everyone, sighed, then turned his hand and took out a large bottle from his space. This bottle was large enough to hold ten pounds of water, made of glass, and was taken from Smith's family’s daily necessities store.
This bottle itself was nothing special, but the water inside it was quite extraordinary. Lando and the others looked at Zhao Hai in confusion, unsure of what he was going to do with such a large bottle.
Zhao Hai carefully placed the bottle next to Lando and said, "Grandpa, you can distribute this water to everyone later. If anything happens or if someone poisons you, drink a little of this water immediately; it might be useful."
Lando looked at Zhao Hai in confusion and asked, "What is so special about the water in this bottle? Is it a potion?"
Zhao Hai shook his head, saying, "This water is not a potion, but it is much more effective than a potion. It is a vial of life essence!"
Life essence! Upon hearing Zhao Hai mention this name, everyone in the room gasped. Life essence was undoubtedly a precious thing, something that even the wealthy and powerful couldn't easily obtain.
Lando stared at the bottle for a while before turning to Zhao Hai and asking, "Little Hai, is this really life essence?"
Zhao Hai nodded and replied, "Yes, I inadvertently obtained it from a ninth-level expert of the Church of Light. At that time, the ninth-level expert wanted to collaborate with the Bullfighting Tribe to deal with the Herculean Bull Tribe, but I ended up defeating him and acquired this life essence. I asked that person, and he also obtained it by chance."
Lando nodded, understanding the implication in Zhao Hai's words. He furrowed his brow and said, "The Church of Light is still interfering with the beast tribes?"
Zhao Hai nodded and briefly recounted the events occurring in the orc tribe, also revealing his identity as the prince consort of the tauren tribe.
Lando looked at Zhao Hai with some surprise, not expecting him to have such an identity. Generally, the human race couldn't gain the trust of the orc tribes, yet Zhao Hai had managed to do so.
However, he quickly thought about the Church of Light’s involvement, and after pondering for a moment, he said to Zhao Hai, "Little Hai, it seems you have established a foothold in the orc tribe now. You need to pay attention to the Church of Light’s movements there and figure out what they want to do. If you can give them a good beating in the orc tribe, that would be wonderful."
Zhao Hai smiled slightly and said, "Grandpa, don’t worry. I have a good understanding of the temperament of the orcs. I believe I can establish myself there. You don't need to be concerned; dealing with the Church of Light in the orc tribe will be quite easy. The orcs don’t trust the Church of Light at all. Once they find out someone is from the Church, if they speak to the orcs, those people will definitely not have a good outcome."
Lando nodded and said, "I'll accept this vial of life essence. It's a critical period, and you are right; the family needs this. However, the family cannot neglect you either. Here’s what I suggest: the Golden Island is now your territory. The family will send a fleet to help you reclaim Golden Island."
