Wang Ye walked out of the assessment room with a smile on his face.

Excluding the materials that the assessment required, the rest amounted to a total value of four million!

It was a huge profit!

On top of that, he still had some materials stored in his spatial sphere!

He could sell those online after he got back and earn another sum then!

Putting that aside, because his results were just awesome, he had undoubtedly ranked first in the assessment.

Of course, some investigators were suspicious since he had obtained so many materials, but they could not find any problems with him. If anyone asked how he got these materials, he answered that it was thanks to his good luck. No one could say anything about that.

After all, luck was indeed very important for the investigators in the secret realms.

As long as one did not commit a crime, no one could say anything about one’s luck being too good.

The reward for first place was not only a million gold coins, but also pet equipment made by Mingguang Enterprise amounting to five million in total.

“With this, when we get back, we can run simulations and evolve in peace.”

“Come here!” Ming Zhu waved at Wang Ye. Her eyes were crinkled into a smile as they were bright and clear, “Wang Ye, given your good performance this time, I have decided to give you a treasure!”

“A treasure?” Wang Ye looked her up and down and coughed, “There’s no need for that, right?”

“Of course there is!” Ming Zhu reached into her pocket and took out a pair of model-like wings, “Look at this! This is the wing-type equipment that the Mingguang Enterprise specially made for sky-type pets! The Kongmi Wingsuit!”

“Just this?” Wang Ye glanced at it, “It looks like a toy.”

“That’s because the material of this equipment has been integrated with the retractable spatial material, Kongmi sand,” Ming Zhu explained in detail, “After it is bind to a pet, it will contract according to the pet’s size.”

“As for its function…” Ming Zhu looked at the green sparrow and revealed an amiable smile, “After wearing this, the strength of the pet’s wings will be strengthened. If the pet wears for a long time, the pet’s agility and strength among the six dimensions will also increase. It also has a very strong defensive ability and can protect your pet’s wings.”

“It sounds great!” Wang Ye thought for a moment. “Are there any side effects?”

“It’s not really a side effect,” Ming Zhu pondered for a few seconds, “It’s just that in the beginning few months, it might make the pet very uncomfortable. This wing-type equipment is very heavy, and the pet will feel very restrained. But as long as it can endure it, the wingsuit is quite useful.”

“Chirp, chirp!” Xiao Jiu immediately flapped its wings and let out a loud cry.

To think this evil woman wanted to restrain it with equipment. It wouldn’t agree to this!

“What’s wrong with it?” Ming Zhu asked, puzzled.

“It’s fine. It’s just happy,” Wang Ye grabbed Xiao Jiu’s wings, stopping them from flapping. With that, only its head could be seen as Wang Ye continued, “See how excited it is. I’ll have to thank Mingguang Enterprise then.”

“…” Xiao Jiu.

Afterwards, Wang Ye asked about Lin Lei.

The guy was currently locked up in prison. From the looks of it, the Investigation Corps had other plans.

Learning this, Wang Ye secretly nodded.

The reason why he hadn’t killed Lin Lei in the secret realm was that he wanted the Investigation Corps to deal with the matter.

The mysterious black-robed man behind Lin Lei was very special. Perhaps he had something to do with the dark fog explosion in Anping County.

If he could use Lin Lei’s matter to get the Investigation Corps to intervene and carry out an investigation, he might be able to change the upcoming situation in Anping County.

This way, he wouldn’t be exposed either.

“Oh, right. Did you really kill the purple-thunder jacaranda?” Ming Zhu suddenly asked, “According to Lin Lei, he said that the purple-thunder jacaranda was nurturing a section of the Qinglei Peachwood. Although this is a bit strange, the materials you took out just now don’t seem to include such a thing…”

Hearing this, the nearby Lin Rou and the others all paused slightly.

Wang Ye was silent for a moment before saying, “Because I need it, so I didn’t take it out. Is that alright?”

As he spoke, he pulled out another small pouch.

The Qinglei Peachwood inside was actually much smaller, because a section of it had been absorbed by Xiao Tao.

The others stared with wide eyes. How many more pouches did this guy have?

Ming Zhu glanced at it and nodded, “As you should. Right, you’ve already passed the assessment, but you haven’t evolved your pet yet. When you go back, remember to sign up for the Hundred Birds Meetin. Ask Commander Lin to send you the details. Try to make your pet evolve as soon as possible. After a pet evolves, all of its six dimensions will improve. Upon reaching level two, the sooner it evolves, the better. Also, regarding Lin Lei’s matter, it’s best that you don’t tell anyone else.”

After giving a few reminders and placing the Kongmi Wingsuit into a box that she gave Wang Ye, Mingzhu left.

Next was to take the oath and officially join the Investigation Corps, specifically the General Investigation Corps of the Dongli Country.

The Investigation Corps was the only special organization in Dongli Country that didn’t consider the backgrounds of its Beastmasters. Even if one’s ancestors were traitors, one could still choose to join the Investigation Corps.

On the other hand, one simply can’t join other organizations without a clean background, such as the various legions, national departments, professional associations, beastmaster universities, and even the major corporations of the society, and so on.

That is unless one had heaven-defying talent or great contributions.

Because it was only the entrance exam for trainee investigators, the process wasn’t very grand. After the oath was over, everyone could return to their homes.

The investigators with outstanding potential would be recruited by the city-level Investigation Corps.

Wang Ye also gave a portion of the materials given by the giant tree to Yun Xiaobei and the other two investigators, fulfilling his original promise.

Riding on Commander Lin Rou’s blazing sky falcon and soaring in the sky, Wang Ye breathed in the fresh air filtered through the energy shield, feeling relaxed and happy.

No matter what, he had finally solved the problem of Xiao Jiu’s evolution with this trip!

“Oh right, instructor Tang,” Suddenly recalling something, Wang Ye asked, “Do you know my parents?”

“Oh? You’re finally asking about this?” Standing in front, Tang Xiong was slightly stunned before saying with a smile, “We’re acquaintances. Back then, we were in the same Investigation Corps. At that time, your parents and I were just ordinary investigators, and our relationship was average. But later, we fought side by side in a demonic disaster caused by the dark fog. Your parents… Unfortunately died later on.”

“I was lucky to survive. All these years, I didn’t know that they had a child. It was one time when I went out that I met a green sparrow that was delivering food…” Tang Xiong seemed to recall something, “That was a heavy rainy day. It was not suitable for flying. The green sparrow wasn’t familiar with flying either, so it fell into a pond and was drowning. I rescued it and brought it back to the nearby Pet Center… Only later did I learn that you were their child.”

Wang Ye nodded, deep in thought.

Speaking of which, Xiao Jiu was in quite some danger at that time.

“No wonder Xiao Jiu wants to learn swimming so much… So it was because of this?” Wang Ye patted Xiao Jiu’s head.

“Wang Ye, do your best,” Tang Xiong patted Wang Ye’s shoulder, “Although your parents were only ordinary investigators back then, they were also true heroes! They fought the strange gods in the dark fog till the last moment, protecting the human cities at the rear, and contributed to the country’s safety.”

Wang Ye didn’t say anything and only nodded.

However, he felt that there was something wrong with Tang Xiong’s words.

He recalled that in every reality simulation, Instructor Tang had risked his life to protect him…

Was he really just acquaintances with his parents?

Or was it purely because he valued talent?
