Degenerates . They were rotten, addicted to short-term pleasures, and had no hope for the future .
This was the impression Baiye's best gave Gao Peng .
Gao Peng nodded his head and didn't say much else .
After entering the Baiye branch of the Southern Sky Group, Gao Peng was able to quickly finish the procedures of taking over . It was a straightforward process . There weren't any power struggles .
Xue Hong, the manager of this division, was a married woman in her 30's . She had two sons studying in junior high school . Her attitude towards Gao Peng was neither indifferent nor enthusiastic .
"Recruiting workers in Baiye district…" Gao Peng said with a frown .
"There are subordinates who will handle that . Young Master Gao can rest assured," Wang Liang said as he nodded .
"Call me Head Gao in the future . I will deduct your pay every time you call me by the wrong name . " Gao Peng gave him a glance .
"Understood, Head Gao!" Wang Liang answered very cheerfully .
" . . . " Gao Peng suddenly found this to be very interesting . He had found this fellow's weakness .
For some reason, what he was feeling felt very familiar .
"Head Gao, you don't need to worry about the day to day running of the branch . You will have subordinates who will report to you about what's going on . You only need to worry about specific recruitments and the transfer of personnel . This position gives you a lot of free time . "
Gao Peng couldn't deny this . He only nodded .
What Gao Peng hadn't expected was the training center for familiars at the back of the big warehouse, which even included some training equipment . It looked like there wasn't a lack of people using the training center . Much of the equipment had visible wear and tear .
"Does every branch have such equipment? Gao Peng asked .
"Yes, basically every branch has some, but there are very few people who use it . Only those who have nowhere to go will come here . " Wang Liang smiled . "Those who are in the Department of Security and the Central Security Bureau have more advanced and luxurious training venues . They are regularly required to go to the forest for field training . "
Gao Peng muttered to himself . He looked at the worn out training equipment in the training center . He then went into deep thought .
"Okay . You can go do your work . If anything thing comes up, just report to me . " Gao Peng didn't have the time to micromanage people .
"Flamy, come here . " Gao Peng waved at Flamy .
Flamy hopped over and flapped his wings .
Flamy had already reached level 20 . He had very fast growth; he was a young familiar destined to be a Lord tier monster, after all . He only needed to train for about a month before he could be promoted to the Commander tier .
If Flamy was promoted to the Commander tier, it would mean Gao Peng would have a very holistic fighting strength . Flamy could also fly . This got rid of Gao Peng's problem of not having a flying type .
There were a few iron poles in the training center . Rings were attached to the tops of the poles . The rings had a diameter of four meters, and they looked very large when one looked up at them .
This equipment was used to train a flying type monster's agility and foundational skills . The poles could be arranged in different patterns to create different routes .
"Can you still fly?" Gao Peng asked Flamy seriously .
Flamy had a blank expression on his face . He looked down at his round belly and used his wings to touch it . He looked very troubled .
Cheep, cheep?
"Try to fly for a while . " Gao Peng walked forward . He arranged the rings into an uncomplicated S-shaped route .
"Fly through these rings . I want to see how much agility you have left," Gao Peng said to Flamy, stepping back .
Flamy stepped back two steps, opened his wings, and started flapping his wings furiously . His single leg stretched out and leaped . There was a surge of wind in the training center .
The dust on the ground started to swell up, creating a gray dust storm . Gao Peng covered his nose and closed his eyes .
Flamy struggled to perk up his neck and then gracefully flapped his wings . He then flew through the rings like a missile .
Bang!
One of the rings was hit hard . It flew a few meters and fell to the ground, along with the fat crane . Flamy was knocked into a daze from the impact . He rolled over a few times on the ground . He then looked at the fat on his body in despair .
Gao Peng, on the other hand, was unfazed, as he was mentally prepared for this . . .
"Let's try something simpler . It's fine, don't be discouraged . You need to believe in yourself . You can definitely do it!" Gao Peng walked forward to pull Flamy up and gave him some encouragement .
The rest of the training in the afternoon was filled with the sounds of Gao Peng cheering and the sound of Flamy puffing . After two hours of training, Flamy could finally fly, although barely . At the very least, he was able to fly in the correct direction .
A fat crane was circling in the air . He glided through all of the rings, then landed steadily on the ground .
Flamy widened his eyes and suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed .
Cheep, cheep, cheep!
As he was laughing, he suddenly let up a hiccup . A blaze came out of his long beak . Immediately after, a bright red light shot out from his whole body . Dazzling red flames emerged between the white feathers .
[Monster Level]: Level 20 > Level 21
He increased a level just like that?
Gao Peng's eyes twitched .
However, in a sense, this wasn't too out of the ordinary . Flamy had consumed a large number of items, he had gone through "harsh" training, and he was naturally gifted, so it was not unreasonable that he would be promoted .
But Gao Peng couldn't help but feel that something was strange .
The corner of Flamy's eyes was condensed with fire . They turned into light that scattered into the sky .
There was a squeaking sound in the sky . Strong flames sprouted out of his wings, then scattered about . They gathered together on the wings, connecting like threads . All the flames then merged together and ignited!
Within the flames, Flamy put in a great effort to lift up his neck and point his beak towards the sky . He spread his wings . Orange flames surrounded his whole body, and bathing him in the flame .
The fire also attracted people from the office . Some of them thought that there was a fire and rushed over with a fire extinguisher .
They then realized it was a familiar that was engulfed within the flames . Those who walked over did not know whether to stay or walk away . They could only stand there awkwardly .
In the end, it was Wang Liang who came over to ask them to go away . "Go back and do your own things . Don't make a fuss . This is Head Gao's familiar . "
The people left the training center .
Wang Liang stood in the distance and smiled at Gao Peng . He then nodded and left .
Gao Peng hadn't thought that Flamy's promotion would cause such a big spectacle .
This greatly increased Gao Peng's anticipation for Flamy . It seemed that Flamy's fire attributes had woken up . Compared to Da Zi's half-baked electric attributes and Stripey's earth attribute that only used his muscles, Flamy's fire attribute was extremely powerful .
The flame lasted for ten minutes and then slowly died out . Flamy stood in the same place . His stomach was still very round… The only change was that the feathers on his body had turned light red . His figure had also gotten a little bit bigger after the promotion .
After Flamy was promoted, he flew up into the air with ease and confidence . This flight was much easier than before . Although he was still a bit round in his tummy, he was much more agile than he had been .
He flew through each of the rings with ease . It was hard not to feel happy when watching this .
Seeing Flamy's simple joy made Gao Peng think of a phrase .
I will never feel lonely as long as I am happy .
