Once, I wanted to be a good person

So, he wasn't actually interested in Wang Hao's life, he just wanted to experience it for a while. Once Fang Ze followed Sir Yang, he would stop following Wang Hao.

Compared to that, Fang Ze actually preferred to follow Bai Zhi.

By doing so, he could be in touch with Bai Zhi at any time and guide her in cracking the Flower Morning Festival.

By then, seeing Bai Zhi's rapid progress, presumably, people from the Security Bureau, including Gu Qing and Xun Yi, would be astonished?

And then they might suspect that Bai Zhi had achieved Qi Opening. Or perhaps all these years, she had been playing dumb while being a tiger.

Thinking of this, Fang Ze suddenly paused, "Eh? Wouldn't that make Bai Zhi a typical waste-stream protagonist, and turn me into the classic old grandpa by her side?"

An old man paired with a mature woman, tsk... No matter how I think about it, this pairing isn't very proper.

After his mind wandered for a bit, Fang Ze collected his thoughts and then removed the disguise of the Late-Night Investigation Room, heading over to the desk to check on today's findings on Wang Hao.

Sitting down in the chair by the desk, Fang Ze looked down and saw a serpent-like creature the length and thickness of a pinky quietly lying on the desktop.

The serpent-like creature had a round head and a tail like a needle, with a body that tapered from head to tail. It seemed rather docile, not very aggressive.

Even so, Fang Ze still prepared his defenses as he gently touched it with his finger.

Perhaps feeling the touch of Fang Ze's finger, the little snake lifted its head and gently rubbed against Fang Ze's finger, then coiled around his index finger.

Fang Ze was startled and hurriedly tried to shake it off.

Just then, information about this little snake appeared in Fang Ze's mind.

[Disaster Creature: Emotion Snake]

This disaster creature is a rather rare mind category disaster creature, precious in nature, docile in temperament. Once attached to a person, it can scatter various emotional scents like happiness, desire, fury, sadness, disgust, jealousy, courage, and calmness around.

These emotional scents will affect people nearby, making them feel the corresponding emotions.

This influence is almost imperceptible, but also rather weak.

Reading this description of the new disaster creature in his mind, Fang Ze blinked.

"Emotion Snake?"

"It can affect the emotions of people nearby?"

He pondered slowly,

"If... I carry this snake while talking to someone I dislike. I want to hit him, but I don't have a reason. Then I can let the Emotion Snake release the [Fury] emotion."

"That way, the more that person looks at me, the angrier he will get. Provoke him a few more times, and maybe he will throw the first punch. Then I will have a legitimate reason to fight back?"

"Or... if I want to extract information from someone, then I can release a happy emotion towards that person. Every time they see me, they will feel happy. Gradually, they will grow closer to me?"

Thinking this way, Fang Ze couldn't help but look down at the little snake coiled around his finger, seemingly fallen into dormancy...

"Feels... kind of interesting."

Thinking this way, Fang Ze no longer paid attention to the little snake entwined around him.

He fiddled with the little snake on his finger then sat down on the chair, closed his eyes, and slowly drifted off to sleep....

.....

Meanwhile, as Fang Ze slept,

What he didn't know was that, tonight, after using the noble fusion method to ascend to Fuser and causing an extraordinary phenomenon between heaven and earth, many eyes throughout the federation were now focused on the Eastern Administrative Region.

One phone call after another was made to the Eastern Administrative Region to inquire what exactly was going on with the emergence of the new noble.

Even the federation's Chairperson had someone specifically call to demand that the Eastern Administrative Region thoroughly investigate this matter!

You see, ever since the great disaster 50 years ago, no nobles had been born in the federation.

Or rather, only those who had made significant contributions during the great disaster 50 years ago and gained the world's recognition could become nobles!

The entire Polaris Federation covers an area of 146 million square kilometers with a population of 5.6 billion across 9 administrative regions and 57 states. To date, there are only 102 noble families!

Each noble acts like a Seafixing Needle, firmly established in each state.

Even now, with many states where the Commoner Faction holds significant power, they only dare to squeeze the living space of the nobles and not be too presumptuous.

In many states, the nobles still rule supreme.

And what do the nobles rely on for their immense power?

They rely on the world rights they gained fifty years ago, which brought them an entirely different way of advancement and powerful Awakening Abilities compared to ordinary people!

It is precisely because of their almost cheat-like advancement method that they can easily overpower their peers among the common prodigies and Monsters.

Now, with the emergence of a new noble, this news immediately stirred everyone's interest.

Everyone was curious about how this new noble obtained the world rights.

Did they make some outstanding contribution to the world?

Did they break through the restrictions imposed on nobles by the World's Laws?

Or is it... perhaps not a human?

And aside from the curiosity about the birth of this new noble, many nobles and federal rulers also felt a hint of worry.

After all, although the Real World had been peaceful for fifty years, the shadow of the disaster lingered in the Spirit Realm, never completely dissipating.
