At his desk, Fang Ze pondered the information he had obtained from Jiang Cheng.
Because Fang Ze was constantly guiding Jiang Cheng to recall his experiences, Fang Ze had gleaned a great deal about the secrets of Jiang Cheng and the Jiang Family from his innermost thoughts.
For instance, the bloodline ability of the Jiang Family was extremely powerful and rare, known as "Conscription," a spatial ability.
Its function was that as long as they were in the same world, members of the Jiang Family could summon anything to their presence.
At a basic level, only ordinary items could be conscripted. At an intermediate level, living creatures could be conscripted. And at a high level, it was possible to conscript a person or a Disaster Creature if they were willing.
The power of this ability lies in the fact that a single person could act as an ambush force, and as long as the ability was not sealed by Law Prohibition, it was equivalent to carrying countless trump cards that could be summoned at any time.
Imagine a demigod of the Jiang Family in combat with another demigod; the Jiang demigod could directly conscript several other demigods from the same faction, making for an incredibly surprising scene.
For example, Jiang Cheng. If he encountered danger, as long as he wasn't struck fatally or prohibited from using his ability like just now, then he could shake people towards him!
Another example. If a friend of the Jiang Family, or someone of their bloodline is in dire straits, a member of the Jiang Family could directly use "Conscription" to rescue them!
It could be said to be an extremely widely applicable ability!
However, this ability in Jiang Cheng's hands seemed oddly wasted.
Nobles, in addition to their basic abilities, have several other "Enhance" abilities selected based on personality and development by the World Origin.
During their heart-to-heart discussion, Jiang Cheng revealed three of his abilities, namely: 13 Imperial Edicts, Imperial Expedition, and Protecting the Chariot...
Judging by the names of these abilities, they seemed to fit Jiang Cheng's condescending character.
But, they were undeniably bizarre...
Take "13 Imperial Edicts" for example. The original "Conscription" ability required the conscripted individual's willingness to be effective. However, "13 Imperial Edicts" allowed for coercive use of the ability regardless of the subject's opinion.
It may seem very impressive, but this ability had a significant downside: before it took effect, it would alert the target every hour: I will compulsorily use a certain ability on you now! And this reminder would continue for 13 consecutive hours!
This led to... the coerced conscripted enemy having 13 hours of prep time, and even if they didn't want to prepare, "13 Imperial Edicts" would remind them to do so...
Then there were the abilities "Imperial Expedition" and "Protecting the Chariot."
Imperial Expedition: Jiang Cheng could use this ability on a target, who, if they agreed, would allow him to transfer directly in front of them. Stacked with 13 Imperial Edicts, he could also be forcibly transported right into enemy territory...
Saving the Chariot: As long as his ability was not restricted, he could select a clone or someone under soul control. In a dangerous situation, he would automatically swap places with them.
Needless to say, all these seemed useful at a glance, but upon closer consideration, they didn't seem to have much utility for Jiang Cheng.
However, just because Jiang Cheng couldn't make good use of these abilities didn't mean Fang Ze couldn't.
Without going into detail, let's just take "13 Imperial Edicts." The reason it was ineffective for Jiang Cheng was that his basic ability was just "Conscription," which couldn't be combined with others.
But Fang Ze's repository of abilities contained hundreds! He could certainly find one that would still be effective even after notifying the enemy, allowing for compulsory use.
Or take "Conscription" and "Imperial Expedition." With Fang Ze increasingly having more subordinates and beginning to establish power in various cities, he could completely switch locations back and forth using "Conscription" and "Imperial Expedition" in secret to avoid being detected by the authorities...
Beyond abilities, Fang Ze also learned some of the Jiang Family's secrets from Jiang Cheng.
For instance, the Jiang Family controlled at least three high-level cities in Xida State. They had influence over seven or eight high-level cities. Among the Council Members, more than ten were from the Jiang Family. Amidst the many years of oppression by the federation and the Commoner Faction, it was hard to imagine the power the Jiang Family wielded at its peak.
Also, the ancient ancestor of the Jiang Family, the former Queen of Xida Country, the only demigod of the Jiang Family, seemed to be failing. She was hanging on to life by a thread, relying on a special item, just to buy time for the Jiang Family.
And so on and so forth...
It had to be said that the abilities possessed by Jiang Cheng, and the various secret pieces of information held by this third-generation heir of the Jiang Family, significantly enhanced Fang Ze's knowledge and ability repository.
Originally, Fang Ze thought of quickly getting rid of Jiang Cheng after capturing him. But now, he felt like Jiang Cheng was a treasure trove. As long as he could control him, it would be best to dry him out before considering how to deal with him in the end.
Having sorted through all this newly acquired information in his mind, Fang Ze also turned his gaze to the table to see his haul for the day.
There were no other items on the table, only a fluffy ball.
The fluffy ball lay still in the air, radiating a soft golden glow.
"Did I actually get something good?" Fang Ze curiously touched the small ball with his hand.
After a moment, the information about the fluffy ball finally appeared in Fang Ze's mind.
