My Pet Beast is Super Fearsome-Chapter 713 - 80: Premeditation
Chapter 713: Chapter 80: Premeditation
In the office of the Pioneer Building’s upper echelon, Li Changfeng lifted the curtain and looked down at Shao Zifeng, surrounded by adoring fans, then whispered into his phone, "He has come."
After a brief silence, a middle-aged man’s voice came through the phone, "Proceed as planned, and it would be best if you could get a high-definition video of the Starlight Queen."
Li Changfeng hesitated for a moment, "What if, I mean, what if he doesn’t cooperate?"
Having said this, Li Changfeng became nervous, holding his breath as he quietly waited for the reply.
"I don’t care what method you use," the man’s voice remained devoid of emotional fluctuation, "If you can’t even complete this task, then leave the capital and go home."
Beep, beep, beep.
Listening to the dial tone from the phone, Li Changfeng leaned against the wall in a daze, the phone slipping from his hand.
He stared blankly at the ceiling, lost in thought.
A moment later, Li Changfeng approached the mirror in the lounge. He looked at his reflection, slapped his cheeks with his hands, and put on a beaming smile once again.
...
"General, good day, Your Grace, good day."
In the hall, the receptionist greeted the approaching group with a slight bow and a perfectly polite smile.
The elderly man nodded slightly and gave Shao Zifeng a kind smile, "I trust you don’t mind if I call you young Shao."
Shao Zifeng smiled and nodded, "General Hu is my elder, of course."
"Well then, since your visits are rare, this old man will accompany you to see the achievements of Pioneer Headquarters over the past few years." He added jokingly, "Consider it a report of our work to ’S01’, haha."
The accompanying personnel also laughed, creating a very harmonious atmosphere.
The rest of the time, General Hu led Shao Zifeng through various departments inside the building, among which the breeding of young beasts impressed him the most – hundreds of young fluffy creatures milling around and making baby noises, an onslaught even the tough ones would find hard to withstand.
The group arrived at the mission hall, where dozens of screens combined into a massive screen scrolled continuously with available urgent missions, with scores of Pioneers entering and leaving, applying for or completing missions.
As they noticed the visitors, they all paused their work and glanced at Shao Zifeng’s face.
Seeing this, General Hu gave a slight cough, "Carry on with your work, don’t let urgent tasks be delayed."
Those who could enter and exit the headquarters directly were generally Pioneers of B level or higher, somewhat renowned and merely curious about the legendary Duke, but maintaining their dignity, they wouldn’t become as frenzied as ordinary citizens.
After General Hu spoke, they picked up their respective tasks once more.
General Hu, slightly proud, turned to Shao Zifeng, "So, young Shao, how do you like it here?"
Shao Zifeng smiled and nodded, "The atmosphere is good, and everyone is very active."
"Haha," General Hu laughed and pointed at him, "You, always with the same line, you sly fox." fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
"I guess that’s enough touring, you have other business, right? Then this old man won’t disturb you anymore." After saying this, General Hu turned to leave, his gaze sweeping over the accompanying people, his brow slightly furrowed, "Where’s Li?"
The accompanying personnel exchanged glances, but no one spoke.
General Hu’s face became slightly unpleasant, but just as he was about to get angry, a man of average build ran up quickly, gesticulating with his hands, "Here, I’m here."
He came to the front, his chest rising and falling rapidly, "Sorry everyone, I was delayed by something just now."
Hu Shiwu snorted coldly, "What a sight."
The man pleaded miserably, "Director, this game update is critical, and with the Duke himself participating in the shooting, I was afraid any mishap might occur, so I supervised every step personally."
Hearing this, Hu Shiwu’s expression softened slightly, but his tone was still stern, "Enough, this is the Duke, and you must treat him with utmost respect."
"Absolutely, absolutely."
After greeting Shao Zifeng, Director Hu left with the other staff members.
Watching Hu Shiwu’s retreating figure, the man sighed in relief, wiping sweat off his forehead. "Duke, I am in charge of ’Pet Beast Chronicles’, my name is Li Changfeng. Please don’t mind what happened earlier."
Shao Zifeng glanced at his recently sweated-on hand and did not reach out to shake it, "Hello, we spoke over the phone before."
Li Changfeng retracted his hand apologetically, wiping it on his body, and put on a grinning expression, "Please follow me. We need to do some makeup for the upcoming shoot. If you have any requests, feel free to tell me in advance."
Shao Zifeng shook his head, not knowing why, he just didn’t like the overly smiling man.
"Let’s go."
...
"Wow, wow, wow, a life-sized Martial God figure, how cool!!"
"And there’s a life-sized figure of ’Miss Eight’; darn it, why can’t I see what she looks like here either?"
The game department lobby was practically a large exhibition of figurines, featuring life-size figurines of various popular ’Pet Beast Chronicles’ game characters, along with an assortment of exquisite posters on the walls, fatally attractive to deep-rooted gamers.
For instance, upon entering the Pioneer Building’s game department, Mao Feibai immediately transformed into a fanatic gamer, darting between different game figurines and continually exclaiming in awe.
A small white cat behaved much the same. Qiqi paid no heed to Shao Zifeng, scampering joyfully around the lobby with tiny steps, seeming to greatly relish the atmosphere.
Hu Shiwu, seeing someone’s behavior, felt deeply embarrassed as if he wished he had never known him.
Li Changfeng watched Shao Zifeng with a beaming smile, "Duke, you can leave your friend here while I take you to get makeup done."
Shao Zifeng’s gaze followed Qiqi, nodding loosely. He had agreed to the shoot mainly to fulfill Qiqi’s request, and as long as the little one was happy, he had no objections.
Hearing the conversation, Qiqi quickly ran over, tilting its head up and looking at him expectantly, "Zifeng, Zifeng, I want to do the shoot with you too."
Shao Zifeng crouched down and hugged Qiqi, rubbing its little head vigorously, "Alright, let’s do it together then."
Li Changfeng opened his mouth, hesitating.
Shao Zifeng looked at him, puzzled, "Is there a problem?"
Li Changfeng waved his hands frantically, "No, no, if your pet likes it, we could specially design a game character for it."
"Wow!!" Qiqi’s eyes sparkled upon hearing that, "I like that, I want a game character."
"Alright, alright." Shao Zifeng doted on it, tapping its little nose, and said to Li Changfeng, "Then I’ll leave it to you."
"It’s no trouble. If there’s nothing else, shall we start with the makeup?"
Shao Zifeng greeted Hu Shiwu and the others before following Li Changfeng to the makeup room.
