Laura's heart was constantly churning. She was very clear about what those eagles were, they were Virtuous Phantasms. Zhao Hai didn't have any Virtuous Phantasms in the beginning, but after she gave him five Virtuous Phantasms, Zhao Hai had them. To be honest, the fact that Zhao Hai was able to hatch those Virtuous Phantasms in such a short time and even cause them to mutate was beyond Laura's expectations. She didn't think that those Virtuous Phantasms could reproduce in large quantities.
However, those eagles were exactly the same as the Eagle Virtuous Phantasms that Zhao Hai gave her. She didn't believe that they weren't Virtuous Phantasms. If this was really the case, then Zhao Hai's ability would have to be re-evaluated.
Virtuous Phantasms and Magic Beasts were different. As long as Magic Beasts were in estrus, they would mate and give birth. Virtuous Phantasms, on the other hand, wouldn't give birth on their own. They would only give birth under the command of their master. Moreover, the first birth would have a great impact on the strength of the Virtuous Phantasms. It was precisely because of this that the number of Virtuous Phantasms on the continent was very small.
Breeding a large number of Virtuous Phantasms not only required a large amount of energy from the master to support the reproduction of the Virtuous Phantasms, but it would also affect the offspring of the Virtuous Phantasms. If the Virtuous Phantasms bred too frequently, their strength would degenerate.
As for the five Virtuous Phantasms that she gave to Zhao Hai, in just a few days, Zhao Hai was able to hatch them and reproduce them in large quantities. Moreover, those Virtuous Phantasms not only didn't degenerate, but instead became even stronger. This really surprised her.
A potion that could accelerate the growth of plants and a method to breed a large number of Virtuous Phantasms. If these two things were taken out, people on the continent would fight over them.
Thinking of this, Laura couldn't help but think of the fire fishes in Zhao Hai's courtyard. Before, she had always thought that Zhao Hai had gotten the fire fishes from somewhere else. Now, it seemed that this wasn't the case. It was possible that Zhao Hai had used the fire fishes in Bluestone Villa to breed them.
Laura couldn't help but feel excited. She now understood why Zhao Hai wanted Magic Beasts. Moreover, he wanted all kinds of Magic Beasts. If her guess was true, then Zhao Hai could really breed a large number of Magic Beasts, then everything would be explained. Zhao Hai wanted Magic Beasts for breeding purposes.
Not only could reproduction magic bring in a large amount of gold coins, but it could also increase one's fighting strength. If that was the case, as long as Zhao Hai was given time, Zhao Hai's strength would continue to increase. It was hard to say what level he would reach in the end.
Then Laura thought of the Blue Eyed Rabbits. Now, how could Zhao Hai produce so many Blue Eyed Rabbits? This would explain it.
Laura let out a long breath, but her heart was turned upside down. There was no way for her to calm down. Zhao Hai's ability was really too attractive. If others were to know that he had such an ability, she feared that they would definitely come to snatch it. Not to mention anything else, the Taoyuan products were already attracting people's attention, not to mention these two heaven defying abilities.
Thinking of this, Laura couldn't help but shiver. Nier looked at her and thought that she was cold. She quickly asked, "Young Lady, are you cold?"
Laura shook her head and said, "I'm not cold. Searle, pass down my orders. Don't tell anyone about what happened today. If I hear any news about what happened today, then don't blame me for being ruthless." Searle nodded and said, "Alright.
Searle complied and passed down the order. Laura didn't say such words to Nier. Nier was with her every day, so even if she wanted to say it, she had nowhere to go.
Not long after, the carriage arrived at Stony Mountain. Green was still waiting for Laura at the foot of the mountain. Laura didn't ask Green about the matter of saving her. She thought that it would be better to ask Zhao Hai about it.
After the carriage arrived at the manor, Laura followed Nier to the living room. Zhao Hai was waiting for them inside. After greeting each other, Laura said to Zhao Hai, "Thank you, Mister, for your help today. Otherwise, I'm afraid I would have been in danger."
Zhao Hai chuckled and waved his hand. "Young Lady is too polite. Even if I didn't act today, Young Lady would have been fine. Those people wouldn't have been able to stop Young Lady."
Laura smiled faintly. "That's hard to say. In any case, I still have to thank Mister. Today, I came here to tell Mister about a matter. The Purcell clan's Patriarch, Grand Duke Evan, has said that he is willing to form an alliance with us to deal with the Markey Dell clan."
Zhao Hai froze for a moment and then frowned. Of course, his face was blocked so Laura couldn't see it. Laura only saw Zhao Hai and didn't show any excitement.
After a while, Zhao Hai said, "Is the matter very serious?"
Laura smiled bitterly and told Zhao Hai about her worries. She also told Zhao Hai about the matter she discussed with Evan.
Zhao Hai frowned and quietly listened. He didn't think that the matter would be so serious that even Evan would be involved.
After Laura finished speaking, she saw that Zhao Hai still didn't move. She smiled bitterly and said, "Mister, I'm not exaggerating, but I understand the people of the Markey Dell clan. For their own benefits, they don't care about feelings. Mister should have already guessed that the people who attacked me today were sent by my Fifth Uncle."
Zhao Hai knew about this point. The people who attacked Laura had already been captured by the eagles and brought to Bluestone Villa. However, these people had already been killed by the eagles. Zhao Hai didn't waste time and turned them into undead. After interrogating them, the final result was that these people were all Carlo's subordinates. This time, a total of 120 people had come, led by Carlo's warrior Leo.
Alodia was the front line, while Leo was the back line. One was in the light and the other was in the dark. They had come specifically for Zhao Hai. The front line wanted to get through Evan's joints, so that Evan wouldn't meddle in Zhao Hai's affairs. Then they would contact Zhao Hai and use benefits to make him stop cooperating with Laura and instead work with Carlo. As for the back line, if the front line didn't achieve the desired result, then the people in the back line would come forward.
Regarding Carlo's approach, Zhao Hai had already expected it. However, he was still very angry. He and Carlo didn't know each other at all, and for the sake of benefits, Carlo actually wanted his life. How could Zhao Hai cooperate with such a person?
After listening to Laura's words, Zhao Hai understood that this time, he was once again involved in trouble. Moreover, it was a big trouble. What annoyed him the most was that this trouble was caused by him.
He didn't want to ally with Evan and didn't want to owe him a favor. However, this time, he had to face the Markey Dell clan. He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to deal with them alone. The Markey Dell clan's businesses were spread across half of the continent. Such a force was too formidable. Even if it was Laura and Evan, it could only be said that if the three of them joined forces, then they wouldn't need to fear the Markey Dell clan. If he wanted to face them alone, then it would be no different than courting death.
Thinking of this, Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Alright, I ask you to tell Grand Duke Evan that we have formed an alliance. In the future, our three clans will be allies."
Laura couldn't help but relax. She was afraid that Zhao Hai wouldn't agree. She knew that Zhao Hai was somewhat arrogant. If Zhao Hai didn't agree, then things would be troublesome.
Zhao Hai looked at Laura's appearance and smiled bitterly. "I didn't want to have anything to do with the Purcell clan, but now that things have developed to this point, even if I don't want to, I can't help it. Miss Laura, I'll have to trouble you this time."
Laura smiled and said, "That's nothing. Right now, we're bound together for good or ill. Mister, can Laura ask you a question?" Then she looked at Zhao Hai, her eyes flashing with light.
When Zhao Hai saw her appearance, he couldn't help but stare, but he still said, "Miss, please ask."
Laura looked at Zhao Hai and said, "The eagles that Mister sent to me today, were they bred using the five Virtuous Phantasms?" This question seemed simple, but it wasn't easy to answer.
When Zhao Hai heard Laura's question, he stared blankly. Looking at Laura's expression, he knew that Laura was suspicious. He had long thought that this day would come, but he didn't expect it to be this fast. He took a deep breath and turned to Laura. "Miss Laura, I'm afraid this isn't the only thing you want to ask, right? If there's anything else, please say it all. "
Laura's heart skipped a beat, but when she heard Zhao Hai's words, it didn't seem like he was angry. In the end, she clenched her teeth and nodded. "Mister, I do have a lot of things I want to ask you. I don't know if it's convenient." Then she turned to look at Green, who was standing to the side, not saying a word.
Zhao Hai understood what she meant. He smiled and said, "Miss, please speak. There are no outsiders here."
Laura nodded. She looked at Zhao Hai and said, "I want to know if Mister has a medicine that can accelerate the growth of plants. Do you have a method to breed Virtuous Phantasms and Spirit Beasts without degeneration? Lastly, I want to know Mister's true identity."
Laura had already decided that she wanted to lay her cards on the table with Zhao Hai. After this cooperation, she and Zhao Hai would be grasshoppers on the same rope. Therefore, she needed to know these things.
Zhao Hai looked at Laura and didn't speak. Green suddenly said, "If Miss Laura really wants to know about this matter, it won't be difficult. As long as Miss Laura agrees to one of our conditions, we can tell you about this matter."
Zhao Hai stared blankly for a moment. Laura's eyes narrowed as she said, "Please, Mister."
Green said, "Marry the Young Master."
Laura stared blankly. Zhao Hai turned to Green and said, "Grandpa Green."
Green didn't agree. Instead, he looked at Laura and said, "As long as Miss Laura marries the Young Master, the Young Master's identity and all his secrets will be revealed to you. If Miss Laura doesn't agree, then I'm sorry, but we will immediately withdraw from the Purcell Duchy. No one will be able to find us, and we won't be able to tell you the Young Master's identity."
