Chapter 533: Chapter 493 The Mysterious Side’s naughty child

Tang Qi’s offhand consolation seemed to open a new door for Philopolos. The four-meter giant, who had a dejected face, suddenly lit up as if infused with a shot of chicken blood and roared, "You’re right, I can make it myself."

"I am Philopolos, a proud member of the great Bonos family. The bloodline of a ’Blacksmith’ flows within me. A mere giant-specific Extraordinary Plane, how could I not be able to make it?"

As Philopolos roared, he stood up from the single chair he had been mangling for a while, his face flush with excitement as he left the room. Those unaware might think he had successfully landed a job.

Soon, the next "job applicant" took a seat in front of everyone.

It was not only Tang Qi, even Jason started to wonder if the list in their hands was provided by a temporary worker from the Ancient Castle Bureau.

A boy around eight or nine years old sat in front of them.

The Information Fragments flowing within Tang Qi’s eyes confirmed that this was indeed a normal human child, not some Abnormality or Extraordinary Creature.

The boy, with the intensely curious look characteristic of his age, was eyeing their blurred faces.

Just as the boy was about to say something out of his uncontrollable curiosity,

Tang Qi and the others took the lead to look at the boy’s resume, which was so astonishing that it left them speechless.

"Frank Baxter from the famous ’Ghost House’ Baxter Museum in Secret Phoenix City, both of his parents are renowned theologians and historians. After the Spiritual Tide Return, they both entered the Mysterious Side and became famous mysticologists. Due to his parents’ excessive obsession with the many secrets of the Mysterious Side, Frank was left unsupervised, and at only ten years old had already made a big name for himself."

"Broke into the ogre factory and released all the ’hostages’, causing a massive ogre manhunt, thankfully the Ancient Castle Bureau agents arrived in time."

"Accidentally chanted an unknown witchcraft spell, summoning an Exotic Realm Demon, which was dispatched by a passing Church Knight."

"Went into a Monster Graveyard in the Wilderness, dug up a Demon’s grave, and took away its rotten heart as a birthday gift for his mother."

"Before dropping out of school, in order to prove to his classmates the existence of the Mysterious Side, he added a bottle of Secret Medicine prepared by his father into a teacher’s drink, causing the teacher to change gender for half an hour."

...

"While Frank Baxter has caused many troubles, one cannot deny his talent in many professions. Flying planes is just one of the less impressive skills he possesses."

The final note evidently did not provide Tang Qi and Eva with any reassurance.

However, it was Jason who, after reading the boy’s "resume," showed a look of admiration.

But his nod of approval couldn’t stop Tang Qi and Eva from very much in sync shaking their heads.

"I believe he can fly a plane, but who would dare ride in the plane he flies?"

Tang Qi couldn’t help but blurt out in his mind.

The resume left by the previous giant, even after being beautified, remained overly simplistic.

However, this boy, his resume couldn’t even fit all his "glorious" deeds.

The key point was that these were the things Frank Baxter had done in less than a year after the return of the Spiritual Tide.

At this moment, Tang Qi could only sigh in his heart: "Who knew that even the Mysterious Side could have naughty children, and when they act up, they are even more terrifying."

Frank Baxter, who had been sitting in the chair for less than ten seconds, was struggling to maintain his "obedient" facade. If it wasn’t for wanting to experience piloting an Extraordinary Plane, he would’ve already tried to satisfy his own curiosity upon entering the room.

Like the presence of a "Half-demon" he sensed among the few "interviewers" in front of him.

"Frank has always wanted to know how Half-demons are created, but mom and dad wouldn’t tell me, saying I’d understand when I grow up. But I want to know now."

The boy’s face seemed obedient, but his mind was murmuring. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

Then his eyes rolled around a few times as if he had thought of something, a trace of mischief flashing through the depths of his eyes, while his little hand inconspicuously reached into his chest.

Tang Qi, who had been paying close attention to the boy, caught this scene.

Even though by the direction of Frank Baxter’s gaze, he could guess that Jason would likely be the target of his mischief,

What if others were affected? Naughty children do not play by the rules.

With a soft sigh, Tang Qi casually asked, "Kid, where is your home?"

The boy, who was pretending to be obedient, hesitated, accelerating his reach into his chest while honestly replying, "Main City, number fifty-eight Art Avenue, Baxter Museum."

"Alright, convey my regards to your parents."

Upon hearing this, the boy’s expression changed instantly, and he swiftly pulled out a small copper mirror, intending to reflect it toward Jason and Klyas’s direction.

However, at the very same moment, a magic portal suddenly opened above his head, sucking the boy right in.

Amidst the boy’s instinctive scream, one could faintly see the abnormal museum on the other side of the portal.

The moment he disappeared, the copper mirror in his hand dropped to the floor with a "clatter", rolled a couple of times, and ended up standing on a chair leg, casting a warm glow that fell precisely on Jason, who was at the far edge.

Almost instantly, within that radiance, Jason’s head became fuzzy, and a pair of Tilos Monster’s characteristic ram horns emerged from under his smooth hair.

Even though Frank Baxter had been sent away by Tang Qi, Jason’s face still turned grim in an instant.

One second ago, he was admiring the audacity of the naughty child; now it was like he got slapped in the face.

Jason, with goat-like hooves, stepped over to pick up the copper mirror and put it in his pocket, casually saying, "Call the next one, I’ll personally return this little thing to the Baxter family."

Just because you’re a professional-level Demon Hunter doesn’t mean you can handle a naughty child, don’t do something foolish... Watching Jason, who was clearly miffed, Tang Qi thought better of offering advice; maybe a clash between a grown-up naughty child and a real one could spark something interesting.

"Next!"

Although they had encountered two unreliable job applicants consecutively, Tang Qi’s voice still carried unwavering certainty.

In the vast Secret Phoenix City Mysterious Side, there had to be at least one normal Extraordinary Pilot, right? Tang Qi asked himself before picking up the next resume, yet upon the first glance, his face betrayed a hint of helplessness.

The subsequent "job candidates" certainly didn’t include the likes of naughty children such as Frank Baxter or someone like Mr. Phil who couldn’t fly a plane at all.

However, none met Tang Qi’s requirements.

Those applying, be they human Transcendents, Demons, or intelligent Abnormalities, while most possessed "driving skills", none had experience piloting an Extraordinary Plane, nor were they adept at maintaining it, handling emergencies, or conducting repairs.

Upon reflection, this was quite normal.

The Spiritual Tide Return has been ongoing for a while, and the revival of the Mysterious Side has been extreme, yet pilots capable of flying Extraordinary Planes, a very specialized profession, were understandably rare.

Those few that existed had already been snatched up by various organizations.

"If Philopolos wasn’t of a Giant Bloodline, but simply a Blacksmith, he could be trained. In no time at all, he would likely have gotten the hang of it."

"Perhaps I should first find a suitable Blacksmith, and then see how things go."

As Tang Qi contemplated, the room’s door opened once more, and in came a figure reeking of alcohol.

He plopped down in a single-seat chair, and without uttering a word, his eyes glazed over as he drifted into sleep.

In his hand, he was still holding a liquor bottle, not a drop left inside.

This was a middle-aged man who looked weather-beaten, with numerous scars on his face and visible hands, and his striking pilot attire made it easy for anyone to form an opinion after just one look.

A retired, alcoholic pilot?

Jason, now quite used to his role as an interviewer, was about to stand up and throw this "drunkard" out.

Having a drunkard for a pilot? They might as well bring the naughty child Frank Baxter back.

Just as Jason was about to act, Tang Qi stopped him first.

At that moment, Tang Qi’s gaze was fixed on the middle-aged man.

Unexpectedly, a strong ghost light was emanating from him, quickly forming a special image.

[Extraordinary Creature: Storm Favored.]

[State: Drunkenness.]

[Information Fragment One: Once an ace pilot for a special unit within the Federation airforce, but he developed a severe alcohol problem due to the successive deaths of his family members. Despite this, he still became a legendary figure in the airforce, relying on his miraculous survival rate from air disasters and his formidable skills.]

[Information Fragment Two: Due to an accident, his plane crashed into an unknown Secret Realm, and he gained some mysterious Extraordinary Abilities within the Secret Realm, which inadvertently made him become a Storm Favored... .]

...

By the time Tang Qi read the second Information Fragment, he had already appeared in front of the drunkard pilot.
