Ling Yi straightened his collar and then glanced at Cobblepot beside him.
Cobblepot immediately understood Ling Yi's meaning, then took out a bottle of purple cesium potion from his pocket and placed it on the table.
"Drink it," Ling Yi said, gesturing to Director Ron.
Ron's face was extremely ugly. Even a fool would know that this bottle of purple potion was definitely not a good thing. It was most likely a slow-acting poison or something that could control people.
He naturally didn't want to drink it.
"Ling, I can assure you that I pose no threat to you and harbor no hostility towards you. From now on, in Donglai District, you can do whatever you want, and no one can stop you."
Ling Yi shook his head and slowly said, " Cobblepot, countdown."
Cobblepot and said with a smile, "Ten, nine..."
Ling Yi nodded in satisfaction. Sure enough, it was the right decision to Cobblepot. Having a capable subordinate was a very comfortable thing.
Just like now, with just a glance or a simple command, Cobblepot can instantly understand and execute it with exceptional skill.
If it were Bant, they probably wouldn't be able to do that at all.
" Ling Yi, I met with Falcone this time and received Falcone support." Director Ron became even more terrified as he listened to Cobblepot's countdown.
He quickly revealed his other trump card.
"Five, four, three..." Cobblepot's smile grew even brighter; he was fascinated by the feeling of controlling other people's destinies.
Although this power comes from his own boss.
He was eager to see what would happen to Director Ron if he didn't make any choice after the countdown ended.
As the Cobblepot the end was about to finish, Ron finally succumbed to the pressure, trembling as he picked up the Loyalty Potion from the table, opened the bottle, and gritted his teeth to drink it down.
Ron dared not gamble on the consequences of not drinking the potion; the monster before him was Butcher and thug who had killed 1,500 people in just four hours.
The images of the streets filled with Masai, even just watching the video, send chills down your spine and make you shudder.
Cobblepot was somewhat disappointed to see Ron drink the potion.
Although Cobblepot's Loyalty to Ling Yi reached 100%, it did not have a significant impact on his personality.
He's still that selfish, cunning, and greedy Penguin.
However, all his actions and thoughts will be centered around Ling Yi.
Cobblepot didn't want Ling Yi to have too many "like him" around him, because it would diminish his power.
After Chief Ron drank the potion, a purplish glint appeared in his eyes.
His expression began to glaze over.
Ling Yi glanced at Cobblepot again.
Cobblepot and nodded, understanding that it was his turn to perform.
"Director Ron, from this day forward, this is your boss. You must pledge absolute loyalty to him. From this day forward, Ling Yi is your faith, your will, and your everything."
If you said these words to a normal person, they would most likely be called crazy and then beaten up.
But at this moment, Ron's consciousness was in a special state after taking the Loyalty Potion, which was why Cobblepot's words could affect Ron.
But that's not enough.
Ling Yi could clearly Perception a surge of spiritual energy emanating from Cobblepot and enveloping Ron.
The [ Loyalty: 0] stat above Ron's head changed to [ Loyalty: 100] in just a few seconds.
"Is this skill something you were born with?"
"Yes, boss, I've had the ability to communicate with small animals since I was a child, especially birds. As long as I influence them with my Divine Power for a period of time, they will obediently follow my commands."
"It's like I planted a seed in their minds, allowing me to use their eyes and ears."
After a pause, Cobblepot added, "But not as fast as it is now."
"The power you bestowed upon me, Boss, has increased my Divine Power by almost a hundredfold. Before, it would have taken at least five to ten minutes, but now it only takes three seconds."
"I tested it last night. Even without Loyalty Potion, given enough time, I can plant Mental Seed in someone's mind."
At this point, Cobblepot gave Ling Yi an extremely obsequious smile, "Thank you for your generosity, boss."
"You can control others without using Loyalty Potion?" Ling Yi was somewhat surprised; this was truly an unexpected delight.
"Of course, using Loyalty Potion would be safer."
After a pause, Cobblepot added, "Dear boss, I feel I can do more now, but I need to test it."
Ling Yi nodded. Cobblepot's abilities may have been weak before, but now he has a 150-fold increase in all attributes, and his Divine Power has skyrocketed.
Perhaps, we will be able to see the complete form of the Cobblepot abilities.
By this time, Ron had come to his senses.
The gaze directed at Ling Yi was now filled with fervor and respect.
"Boss, Ron reporting to you. Your will is everything to Ron."
Ling Yi couldn't help but tug at his collar again, feeling a sense of déjà vu about him, like a cult leader.
"I need more subordinates, absolutely loyal subordinates." Ling Yi glanced at the two men, finally Light Lock on Penguin Cobblepot.
"I want to become the true ruler of Gotham City, the visible ruler. What suggestions do you have?"
"Boss, perhaps you could become mayor," Cobblepot suggested after a moment's thought.
Ling Yi's eyes lit up. "Mayor? What does he need?"
"Boss, becoming mayor of Gotham City is a very simple matter; there's no need for an election or a vote," Cobblepot said after a moment's thought.
"Why?" Ling Yi asked, puzzled.
"The mayor of Gotham City has always been a puppet, a puppet of the Gray Gang Families. Anyone can become mayor as long as those four major families agree."
"The previous mayor was just a beggar we picked off the street, Later he became disobedient and was killed. Now, the mayoral position in Gotham City is vacant."
"Once the boss becomes mayor, he can use his position to consolidate the Gray Gang forces throughout Gotham City and become the true ruler of Gotham City."
"I'm afraid it won't be easy," Ron said, shaking his head.
"A day ago, it might have been a very simple matter. If I had just introduced the boss to any of the four major families, there would have been a very high probability that he would have become the mayor."
"After all, all they need is an obedient puppet. Anyone will do, as long as they're obedient."
"But now, they cannot allow someone they cannot control to become mayor."
Not bad, this Chief Ron is actually quite capable; at least he's not a complete waste.
Cobblepot gave Ron a dark look, but then put on a gentle smile.
The change in expression is like a face-changing act.
Tell me about those four major Gray Gang families you're talking about.
"Boss, not all four major families are Gray Gang families. The Wayne Family and the Kane Family are not Gray Gang. Only the Elliot Family and the Cobblepot Family are Gray Gang families in the true sense."
At this point, Ron looked at Cobblepot.
"My name is Cobblepot, but I have no relation to the Cobblepot Family." Cobblepot immediately understood Ron's meaning and shook his head.
The current Penguin has not yet come into contact with the Cobblepot Family, and is even less aware that he is the illegitimate son of the Old Cobblepot.
Penguin was only taken back by Old Cobblepot after his mother's death.
He then seized control of the Cobblepot Family through various means, ushering in his golden age and Yifei heights.
Cobblepot glanced at Ron, then chuckled and said, " The Wayne Family and Kane Family, while not Gray Gang Gray Gang, aren't much better."
"Their wealth is not clean; in Gotham City, not a single penny is unstained by blood."
Ling Yi frowned. He didn't care whether the four major families' wealth was clean or not, or whether they were good or bad people. In Ling Yi's eyes, he only cared about their Good and Evil Value.
For Ling Yi, the most important thing right now is still strength.
However, becoming the mayor of Gotham City is not the most pressing matter at the moment.
If he has enough power, who would dare to oppose him even if he forcibly became the mayor of Gotham City?
To increase one's strength, one needs to rely on the system and kill villains with negative Good and Evil Value.
Gotham City has no shortage of bad guys.
However, working alone would be too inefficient. Ling Yi needs subordinates, a large number of subordinates with 100% Loyalty.
In the past, this might have been very troublesome.
But now, Ling Yi has Cobblepot.
Ling Yi looked at him and said, " Cobblepot, let's test your abilities."
A few minutes later, a constable with the Kunlun Sect slave blood walked into the director's office.
Then, under Cobblepot's superpowers, they were easily Hypnosis, and their Loyalty reached 100%.
It all happened in just over ten seconds.
This pleased Ling Yi greatly.
" Ron, how many constables are there in the Donglai District?" Ling Yi asked Ron.
"There are 27 officially employed staff and 43 temporary staff members, for a total of 70 people."
"Seventy people should be enough."
"Pass the word: assemble all inspectors within one hour."
The two immediately understood Ling Yi's meaning.
Next, with the cooperation of Ron and Cobblepot, Ling Yi gained a 70-man squad of inspectors with 100% Loyalty in just half a day.
Once Ling Yi activates the attribute Sharing, it's equivalent to having an Transcendent team.
The only drawback is that these people cannot see the Good and Evil Value of others like Ling Yi does.
"From now on, no Gray Gang are allowed in Donglai District. Ron, these men are yours. I'm giving you two days to wipe out all the Gray Gang in Donglai District."
"I will start in Donglai District and wipe out all darkness in Gotham City!"
"Anyone who resists, kill!"
"Yes, boss!" Ron shouted excitedly, feeling the immense power within him.
This Transcendent power is captivating.
Ron quickly led his fully armed 70-man Transcendent team away.
" Cobblepot, I need you to take control of all the police officers in Gotham City as quickly as possible," Ling Yi said, turning to look at Cobblepot.
" Cobblepot understands!"
