Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System

"You want to challenge a red zone with just a few people!? That's crazy, Brother.

We won't even be able to fight our way to the dungeon entrance."

Since the dungeon was already broken, monsters would keep pouring out from it, meaning the area surrounding the dungeon gate was now a monster nest.

Alex smirked. Seeing his confident smile gave Emily the urge to smack him.

She hated how he couldn't just go straight to the point and instead liked to put her in suspense.

Alex took out the storage box he had created.

"When I hunted for the life force, I put one of the mutated monster wolves inside here."

Alex then pointed to the empty area in the room, and with a few presses, the saber-tooth wolf's body appeared on the ground.

"You should know where I'm going with this."

"Just get to the point," Emily said with a pout.

Alex chuckled, then said, "This one died because of its own skill, but this box can keep living monsters inside, Emily.

With this and my storage ring, I can bring as many monsters as I need.

I just need to tinker with the slave contract, putting it on the formation, to make sure they will become a loyal force of mine."

He then continued in his mind, 'This should be faster than the VR game I had in mind. That one would have taken more time to establish.'

"You want to make a full squad of monsters? And slave contract, formation, what do you mean by that?"

Emily was surprised by her brother's idea, but there were many words she didn't understand.

"Oh, I forgot you never read cultivation novels.

I told you those novels are a good use of time and money. You should appreciate them more," Alex said with a grin.

"Don't use those to justify your hobby. Just explain."

Emily had some idea of what a slave contract meant, but she wanted to confirm it with Alex.

The possibility of that contract gave her many thoughts.

Alex then explained how slave contracts worked and the safety they provided; if they broke the contract, they would be killed.

But for barely intelligent monsters, he would need to tinker with the contract to also instill loyalty.

Alex then remembered there should be something like a beast contract in Mingyue's world,

'I will need to ask Mingyue about this later.'

Emily had a thoughtful look on her face and then said, "Brother, that slave contract, how effective is it for awakeners?"

"That would depend on their ability. Why?"

"The Black Tower."

Hearing it, Alex knew it was a unique building made for awakener criminals with heavy crimes.

Everyone inside was a psychopath.

"Isn't that under hunter association control?"

"Yes, but each of them is strong, brother. With this contract, we can put them under our control.

I have heard there are even three-star and four-star hunters inside.

Since no one knows this contract system, we can get these people if we make a deal with the association."

Alex quickly shook his head.

"Not worth it. You should know better than I how dark people can become.

What do you think will happen if this contract is released to the public and the association?

It will become worse than ever."

There were other reasons Alex didn't want to agree.

He didn't plan to give the Hunter Association the existence of Qi; he already planned to give a dumbed-down version of the cultivation method using mana.

But the contract required Qi to apply.

Emily's eyes turned solemn.

She had seen all the dark sides, making her hate dark hunters to the bone, but the possibility of raising their force quickly just made her feel greedy.

That meant they could go to that dungeon and confirm their father's fate.

Alex then looked at the cube in his hand, playing around with it.

He once thought capturing humans was a line he wouldn't cross, but now that Emily mentioned it, weren't there many people who didn't deserve to be in the black tower?

Rather than consuming people's taxes to pay for these kinds of facilities, wasn't it better for him to catch them and use them for better purposes?

His lips raised into a grin.

"We cannot touch those in the black tower, but don't you meet many dark hunters on your mission, Emily?"

"Yes."

Alex then took out another storage cube, which was without any defects. He had made it specifically for Emily to use.

"You can use this for now to keep inanimate objects.

Inside the area is a vacuum, so if you keep food, make sure to put it inside another storage first. But it should be quite useful for you to pack emergency items.

I will give you a better one later."

Emily then took the cube and started tinkering with the interface. Alex continued, "Your idea is not wrong, but as I said, I don't want to bring the association into this.

I will try to modify the cube so you can use it to capture those dark hunters on your mission for test subjects."

Alex had already decided to use them to test his new cultivation method.

He then gave Emily a few Qi crystals and a cultivation method.

"You should try to cultivate too, Emily, but don't go far; just go to the foundation's early phase. So you can change it later on."

Emily looked at the transparent crystal with a slight orange hue, which was not much different from mana crystals that had a blue hue.

She then grasped it and started feeling the raging energy inside the crystal.

"Oh yeah, one more thing." Alex took out a storage ring and placed it on the table.

"You should be able to use this after reaching the foundation stage.

Just remember, compared to cultivators in her world, we need Qi crystals to recover energy since there is no Qi in the atmosphere.

I don't have many Qi crystals for now, so try to use them sparingly."
