In the end of the ice age, I hoarded tens of billions of supplies

Deng Yuanbo looked at Zhang Yi and the others with a smile, "Okay, okay, I'm very happy that you guys can save face."

"Come, come, sit down! Don't be restrained."

"Zhang Yi, you and my nephew Deng Shentong are acquaintances. If you don't mind, you can call me Uncle Deng."

Zhang Yi was a little surprised.

Deng Yuanbo drew closer as soon as he came up, and it seemed that he was going to win over Zhang Yi just like what Yang Xinxin said.

Zhang Yi smiled and nodded, stretching out his hand to not hit the smiling face, Deng Yuanbo's age is listed here, calling him "uncle" is not a disadvantage.

"Uncle Dun."

Hearing Zhang Yi's shout, the smile on Deng Yuanbo's face grew stronger.

"Okay, if you call me Uncle Deng today, I won't let you call me Uncle Deng."

He winked sideways.

Soon, a beautiful woman in a cheongsam walked up to Zhang Yi holding a plate.

On top of the plate was a silver case.

"Just treat this as a greeting gift. I hope you won't dislike it."

Deng Yuanbo said with a smile.

"Oh, as for these two little girls, there will be gifts for them later."

Deng Yuanbo's attitude was directly revealed, almost undisguisedly trying to win over Zhang Yi.

Zhang Yi remained vigilant in his heart.

Being courteous to nothing, adultery or stealing—well, that sounds like a bit of a curse.

Let's change it to "Do not go to the Three Treasures Hall if nothing happens!"

But he was still very curious, what exactly is this meeting ceremony?

After all, he doesn't feel that he lacks anything now.

So he asked, "Uncle Deng, what is this?"

Deng Yuanbo saw the disapproval in Zhang Yi's eyes.

However, his expression was a little playful.

"Poor boy, you have been suffering outside for more than half a year, and you haven't had a good life. The things inside," he pointed to the silver box, "it can save you half a year of time spent going to the Improve your strength!"

The expression on Zhang Yi's face suddenly froze.

Liang Yue and Yang Xinxin also looked solemn.

"It... can improve my strength?"

Zhang Yi looked at Deng Yuanbo in disbelief.

"But……"

Deng Yuanbo said with a smile: "But you think that if a foreigner wants to improve his strength, he can only devour others' origin, right?"

Zhang Yi smiled and nodded: "That's right."

Deng Yuanbo smiled triumphantly.

"In theory it is. But this method is indistinguishable from what a beast eats."

"And the biggest difference between us humans and beasts is that we know how to use tools."

"This thing is called X compound. Only our Deng family can produce it. After using it, the strength of aliens can be quickly improved."

Zhang Yi nodded thoughtfully.

"I understand, this is why, Blizzard City's population is not too large, but it has a large number of elite aliens, isn't it?"

Deng Yuanbo couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"Yes! The world is so big, there are countless talented people, how could they all gather in Blizzard City?"

"It's just because once the potential of the aliens here is discovered, they will get the best resources to cultivate them, which makes them very powerful!"

"Perhaps there are aliens around you who are not weaker than the captain of the investigation. However, they have died in various crises before they could awaken their abilities."

Zhang Yi nodded, and he couldn't help but sigh: "Sure enough, being born in a good place is really very important."

Although he acted relatively calmly, Zhang Yi's mind was still on the X compound.

He squeezed his chin, "Uncle Deng, how much can this thing improve a person's strength?"

Today's Zhang Yi has encountered a bottleneck of strength.

He has absorbed the cutting-edge delta-level aliens of the eclipse, but the improvement is minimal.

Therefore, he is also very skeptical about the efficacy of this compound.

Deng Yuanbo smiled and said: "Let's put it this way, you know Deng Shentong, right? He can quickly grow to the strength he is today because of this thing."

A look of astonishment flashed across Zhang Yi's eyes.

Deng supernatural powers?

The strength of the captain of the investigation is also obtained by drugs?

It's just that this drug, will it have the same side effects as the one used by Bian Junwu?

Deng Yuanbo saw that Zhang Yi had some scruples in his heart.

He said: "Actually, the effect of this drug is the same as the [cophagy] ability between you aliens."

"It's just that we have used scientific means to extract the [source] of the ability, so that you can absorb it better."

Zhang Yi muttered in his heart, he would never trust others easily.

What's more, it was only the first time he and Deng Yuanbo met.

"Such a gift is too heavy, Uncle Deng, I dare not accept it!"

Zhang Yi declined with a smile.

Who knows if there is any poison in this thing, what if he uses it and is controlled by the Deng family?

Deng Yuanbo nodded.

"You are very cautious, and caution is a good thing. If you hadn't been like this, you probably wouldn't have been able to survive until now in the crisis-ridden outer city area and achieve what you have achieved today."

Pointing to the box of X compound, he said in a flat but domineering tone:

"I seldom give gifts to others, and no one will refuse the gifts I give. This is just a meeting ceremony, and I, Deng Yuanbo, will not ask others to do something for this little thing."

Hearing what Deng Yuanbo said, it would be impolite for Zhang Yi to refuse again.

He nodded: "Then I would like to thank Uncle Deng for his kindness!"

Zhang Yi took the silver box over and put it in his own different space.

Deng Yuanbo nodded in satisfaction.

"Well, you must be hungry after coming from afar. Let's eat!"

Liancheng clapped his hands, and suddenly more than a dozen maids came over, carrying golden dinner plates in their hands, and soon the whole table was filled.

The food is very rich, and Deng Yuan has their own chef and stocked ingredients.

Therefore, the meals on the table look particularly appetizing.

Zhang Yi was also polite, picked up the chopsticks and ate.

But after taking a few bites, he found that the ingredients were not fresh.

But if you think about it, you can understand.

No matter how powerful the Deng family is, they will not be able to enjoy a large amount of luxurious fresh food in the last days.

In this regard, Zhang Yike is much better than them.

During the meal, Deng Yuanbo didn't talk about other things. He didn't talk during eating or sleeping. He was a person who had strict requirements on the quality of life.

It was not until the meal was finished and the servants cleared away the dishes that Deng Yuanbo called Zhang Yi to the study next to him.

Yang Xinxin and Liang Yue were invited by Liancheng to the lounge next door.

When Zhang Yi came to the study, after Deng Yuanbo said a few polite words, he got straight to the point.

"Zhang Yi, you don't have any background in Blizzard City. If you want to gain a foothold in the Jiangnan region, you must make certain achievements."

"Zhu Shuai asked you to be the captain of the Tengu team, why did you shirk?"
