I accidentally joined a group of charlatans, so I immediately called the police and handed it over t

An hour later.

The screams finally stopped.

In Bathhouse No. 1, the ten buckets of originally dark green and thick medicinal liquid have now turned into clear white water.

All the medicinal power was completely absorbed by these ten hungry bodies.

The wolf was the first to stand up from the bucket.

The bandages on his body had long since come undone, revealing a shocking body beneath.

The skin, which was originally cracked and bleeding, has now completely healed, leaving only very faint white marks, like a special tattoo.

His skin was no longer that rough bronze color, but had a cold, hard metallic sheen, as if it had been coated with a matte glaze.

The muscle lines are smoother, without exaggerated bulges, but contain a restrained explosive power.

"call--"

The wolf exhaled a long breath of stale air.

The breath had a faint gray hue, carrying impurities expelled from the body.

He clenched his fist.

The knuckles made a popping sound like popping beans.

That feeling... was wonderful.

It was like having a new body—light, strong, and capable of anything.

The wolf looked at a specially made, thickened cowhide sandbag next to it.

That's for heavyweight boxers to train with; it's filled with iron pellets.

He walked over, without gathering any strength, and simply swung his hand casually.

"Bang!!!"

A muffled thud.

The leather sandbag, which was strong enough to withstand several hundred kilograms of impact, exploded in mid-air as if it were made of paper.

Black iron filings flew everywhere, scattering across the ground.

The entire room fell silent.

The remaining nine soldiers also climbed out, and stared in disbelief at the scene before them.

Li Guobang stood at the door, a half-smoked cigarette still between his fingers.

The cigarette ash fell on the back of his hand, burning a patch of skin red, but he didn't react at all.

His eyes were fixed on the shattered sandbag, and his hands were trembling slightly.

"This...this is fucking..."

Li Guobang was so excited that he swore.

"Is that a humanoid Gundam?!"

If this power could be mass-produced...

If the entire army could use this kind of medicinal bath...

The Chinese army will be invincible in the world!

Li Guobang suddenly turned around, grabbed Chen Xi's hand, and squeezed it so hard it felt like he was going to crush Chen Xi's hand bones.

"Chen Xi! Brother Chen! Ancestor Chen!"

Li Guobang was incoherent, his eyes practically brimming with fanaticism.

"I want this medicine!"

"We need as many as we can! Implement this throughout the entire army! It must be implemented throughout the entire army!"

"No matter which war zone, as long as they can train soldiers like this, I'll sell my blood to get them for you!"

Chen Xi withdrew his hand without making a sound, his face bearing that signature, enigmatic smile.

"Old Li, calm down."

He slowly straightened his collar, his tone sounding somewhat embarrassed.

"This medicine is not easy to obtain."

"You also know about that 'mysterious supplier'..."

Chen Xi pointed to the sky, his expression meaningful.

"He has a very strange temper."

"They only gave us this small sample because of me."

"To ensure long-term supply, we need to increase production..."

Chen Xi sighed and shook his head.

"It's difficult, extremely difficult."

This is a classic example of raising prices arbitrarily.

But Li Guobang fell for it.

"No matter how difficult it is! Name your conditions!"

Li Guobang waved his hand, displaying his boundless pride.

"Do you want money? Land? Or some rare mineral?"

"As long as the country has it, and as long as it doesn't violate principles, I'll give you special approval!"

Chen Xi smiled.

The fish has taken the bait.

He took out a document that he had prepared in advance from his briefcase and handed it to Li Guobang.

"Since you're so straightforward, Lao Li, then I won't hold back anymore."

"This is... a small request from that supplier."

Li Guobang eagerly took the document and opened it.

However, when he saw the first line of text, he was completely stunned.

"Proposal for the Acquisition and Comprehensive Redevelopment of XX Private Island in the Maldives"

"island?"

Li Guobang was completely bewildered.

"What does that master need an island for...? To cultivate in seclusion?"

"Well, I guess so."

Chen Xi lied without batting an eye.

"It's mainly for...self-cultivation."

Li Guobang continued reading, his expression becoming increasingly interesting, even... distorted.

"To build a 500-acre... super pet park on the island?"

"A complete automated feeding system is required, and the food must be air-freighted M9 Wagyu beef and deep-sea king crab?"

"And you also need to cut off all external surveillance signals to guarantee absolute privacy?"

"They even want to build a pure gold...doghouse on the beach?!"

Li Guobang's hands were shaking.

He suddenly looked up at Chen Xi, his eyes filled with absurdity.

"Chen Xi, you're not kidding me, are you?"

"What kind of self-cultivation is this?"

"This is clearly... just a crazy rich guy keeping dogs!"

Chen Xi shrugged, looking completely innocent.

"Old Li, watch your words."

"Even if a master's hobby is keeping a dog, it's a... divine dog."

"Besides, they provided such an amazing prescription; is it too much to ask to enjoy a little life?"

Li Guobang looked at the long string of zeros at the end of the budget sheet.

Billions of US dollars.

This amount of money is not small, even for the military.

If it's about buying equipment or missiles, he won't even blink.

But is this some kind of resort built for a dog?!

If this gets out, what will become of Li Guobang's lifelong reputation? Wouldn't those people at the Audit Office eat him alive?

"This is too much..."

Li Guobang gritted his teeth, his face contorted with pain.

"Old Li."

Chen Xi suddenly interrupted him.

He pointed to a wolf not far away that was tearing apart a washbasin with its bare hands, showing off its strength to its comrades.

"Take a look at that."

"Take another look at this contract."

"An island in exchange for a super army capable of tearing tanks apart by hand."

"Do you think you're losing out?"

Li Guobang followed Chen Xi's finger and looked in that direction.

The wolf was holding a stainless steel basin and easily tore it in half as if it were paper.

The explosive power of that instant, the extraordinary strength.

That is the ultimate weapon that every commander dreams of.

Li Guobang remained silent.

He looked at the torn basin, then at the absurd contract in his hand.

A few seconds later.

The old general took a deep breath, his eyes becoming incredibly firm, even revealing a ruthless edge.

"Snapped!"

He slammed the folder shut.

"Approved!"

Li Guobang roared out the word through gritted teeth.

"As long as we can train soldiers, as long as we can stand taller!"

"Don't even mention an island!"

"Even if it's ten islands! I'll approve it!"

"Even if they have to flatten that island on the map, I'll take the blame!"

Chen Xi smiled.

She smiled radiantly.

He reached out and shook hands firmly with Li Guobang.

"make a deal."

This moment.

Chen Xi is more than just an instructor.

He became the sole middleman who monopolized this vital channel to the heavens.

And above the nine heavens.

A deity who was petting a dog seemed to sense something and sneezed.

"Achoo!"

"It seems my resort is settled."
