Seizing the BOSS Template at the Start

Entering this hall that resembles a castle, it is lavishly decorated like a noble’s banquet.

However, the main attendees today are people from the Di Feng Family, with no outsiders present.

Diane led Baiyi inside, and amongst a crowd of exceedingly friendly gazes, she introduced everyone one by one. The Di Feng Clan is quite large, even though Metheus now seems to only revolve around his grandchildren.

But there are many people at Diane’s uncle’s level and in the same generation, like Jia Guan·Di Feng, who is at the golden middle tier and is Diane’s sixth uncle.

There are also one or two exceedingly aged uncles who have already lined up in the teens, all of whom have not broken through to golden level and whose lifespans are nearing their end.

The main rule in this world is the higher the tier, the harder it is to procreate, so the powerhouses in this world enjoy casting a wide net. Besides spouses of the same tier, there are some lower-tier women taken as concubines.

The children born from these unions are generally seen as the backbone of these great families, almost like a gamble, what if they inherit all the talents of a golden powerhouse?

This is also the difference between the direct lineage and branches, where the direct lineage generally has higher talent, and the mother’s strength is also higher.

Upon seeing a half-elf uncle, Baiyi could confirm that Metheus had been quite promiscuous in his youth.

Seeing that some uncles had no hair on their heads indicated they likely drank Sabo’s Divine Kidney Potion, exchanging hair for an indestructible kidney.

However, Sabo’s potions usually have significant side effects, and Baiyi could sense a slight aura of lust from them, expanding their desires in that regard until they lose themselves.

This is also why the Federation banned Sabo brand potions after using them for a while.

In fact, 99% of Sabo’s potions have been banned by the Federation for sale, and the reason is simple: they’re a rip-off.

For example, the Critical Strike Potion that pollutes the spirit, the Strength Potion that causes sex changes, or the Stealth Potion that makes certain parts disappear completely, and so on.

Sabo offered side effect instructions for these potions, but not fully or outright.

The fortunate part is that his potions have no effect at the golden level, and other people who take them can have most negative effects removed by a Golden Mage.

This is why the potions didn’t directly backfire on Sabo. As long as he did not cross certain lines, nothing would happen to him under the Federation’s domain, backed by Dongwu City.

After some pleasantries, the banquet began.

This banquet is extremely luxurious, even more outrageous than the five million per meal Will’s banquet last time.

Baiyi felt a bit uneasy amidst the Di Feng Family, especially under the enthusiasm of Diane’s father, Sta·Di Feng, and mother, Shari Ren Chu.

Shari Ren Chu is from a very talented branch of the Ren Chu Family, which is also one of the reasons Yuan Tang and Helen are close.

As for why a branch can become the main wife of the Di Feng Family, let’s just say that sometimes when the talent is enough, the gap in status is not a problem.

With the start of the banquet, after three rounds of drinks, Metheus began to discuss serious matters besides just gathering together.

Metheus was seated at the main position at the moment, while Baiyi, Diane, and Yuan Tang were seated to his right, with Sta and Shari to his left.

Metheus said with a pleasant tone, "I’ve called you over this time because I have some matters to discuss with you."

[You drink the Celestial Frost Wine, and your Power +1, agility +1, Endurance +1.]

"Please, go ahead." Baiyi took a sip of wine and responded with a smile.

Metheus looked at some people to his left and said warmly, "There are three sub-border cities connected to Dongwu City — Chaoyang City, Wuduo City, and Red Lion City. Currently, Koman manages Red Lion City, while the other two cities are under the administration of the Di Feng management."

"The City Lords of Chaoyang and Wuduo have come to the Capital City for development, and I would like Dongwu City to also take charge of these two cities."

Metheus said with a smile, "As before, you can draw 20% of the city revenue, what do you think?"

Baiyi’s gaze slightly focused, thinking about how great the energy of the Di Feng Family was, considering the other two cities, especially given that the City Lord of Chaoyang was a golden upper tier; they managed to peacefully resolve the allocation....

However, thinking of Eric, he felt somewhat relieved knowing that for the aging golden upper tier, with even just a 1% chance to increase their breakthrough to legendary tier, they would go to any lengths.

As for the golden middle tier Sub-border City Lord...strength is everything, and for the council, the golden middle tier doesn’t have the qualification to challenge it; as long as the compensation is sufficient, a safe retreat is the best choice.

Baiyi thought for a moment and nodded, "Let’s make it thirty percent, and I will have the Quartermaster take on this additional role; he always has inexhaustible energy."

Metheus didn’t refuse and gladly accepted, "This time your reform is admirable, and we can see a bright future, combined with your current contributions to the Federation, the council has decided to give you three purchase permissions for treasures. Do you have time later?"

"Of course, I can go at any time," Baiyi’s eyes brightened. The Federation Treasure Vault is filled with treasures, not only collected by powerhouses over generations but also containing many items from the New God Era.

Although it’s called a purchase, it’s virtually free, as the pricing is genuinely cheap.

The market pricing of Soul Crystal Cores is based on this purchase permission.
