Chapter 44 Post-War Review, The Road to Wealth

With Hongni dead and half of the other main forces gone, the remaining pirates of the Ten-Colored Pirate Gang would be easy for Chen Qing to kill.

The hunt for the Ten-Colored Pirates is nearing its end.

Some pirates wanted to abandon ship and escape, while others wanted to make a final stand and fight back against Chen Qing.

The seemingly frail Dalia on Chen Qing's ship was the best choice, thanks to the fact that pirates are always bullies who prey on the weak.

The elderly and children are their easiest targets.

However, Dahlia is not a child who can be manipulated by others.

When the pirate tried to capture Dahlia and use her to threaten Chen Qing, Dahlia didn't hesitate to pierce the pirate's heart with her sword.

When killing, the strike must be fatal.

This is something Daliya learned from Chen Qing.

Qiao Zhiyu felt a chill run down her spine as she looked at Daliya, who had just killed someone but was still able to calmly wipe the blood that had accidentally splattered on her face.

This child will definitely grow up to be another Chen Qing; no wonder they are sisters.

However, Qiao Zhiyu always felt that Daliya gave her a different feeling than Chen Qing.

Using animals as metaphors, Chen Qing is a ferocious beast, the king of the forest, a tiger, and a seemingly gentle but terrifying wild elephant.

But Dahlia… Qiao Zhiyu felt that she was like a snake, a venomous snake hiding in the shadows, ready to strike at any moment.

Just like how she dealt with that pirate.

Qiao Zhiyu wasn't saying it was bad, but she just felt that Daliya was scary.

This fear is different from the fear of Chen Qing.

"Sister Zhiyu, what's wrong? Why are you staring at me?"

With her hands behind her back, Dahlia stood on tiptoe and suddenly moved closer to Qiao Zhiyu. Her deep eyes sent a chill down Qiao Zhiyu's spine.

She truly is worthy of being Chen Qing's sister.

"Ha ha--"

Qiao Zhiyu chuckled twice and quickly brushed it off.

"It's nothing, it's nothing. Let's go help your sister quickly."

Chen Qing on the opposite pirate ship had already wiped out all the pirates of the Ten Colors Pirate Gang. The corpses were piled up on the ship, emitting a strong smell of blood.

Except for the flying fish that was held back by Gao Yue, the entire pirate crew was wiped out by Chen Qing.

The deck was soaked in blood; cleaning it would be a lot of work.

"The boat is yours, everything else is ours."

Dahlia put her hands on her hips and immediately said.

"certainly."

Gao Yue nodded quickly, leading the now obedient Fei Yu; this was something they had agreed upon beforehand.

Chen Qing had already helped them kill the pirates of the Ten-Colored Pirate Gang, which was already a huge benefit for them. How could they possibly ask Chen Qing to share the bounty and the supplies on the ship?

In their adventure party, most of them were support healers and crowd control...

She was the only combatant, and Gao Yue was a little worried about that.

However, she was just being hypocritical after getting the benefit.

Both Zuo Yun and Qiao Zhiyu possess extraordinary abilities that are rare indeed.

If Chen Qing wanted to build a team, he would definitely bring those two in.

It's likely that the remaining two extraordinary ability users in Gao Yue's team also possess unique abilities.

However, Gao Yue's team has a fatal flaw: their combat ability is too poor.

Zuo Yun and the other two Chen Qings didn't know, but Qiao Zhiyu was a pure support character.

She has poor combat ability and combat awareness. Her advantage is that she has a good personality, is quite reliable, and will not easily change her stance when faced with temptation.

Gao Yue has excellent taste.

As Chen Qing carried the pirates' corpses onto the ship, he thought to himself.

After defeating the Ten-Colored Pirate Gang, Chen Qing obtained a total of 86 Extraordinary Points.

The ten-color group contributed 30 points, the pirate group contributed 50 points, and the remaining pirates contributed a total of 6 points.

It was a very fruitful experience.

The extraordinary points obtained from the Ten-Colored Pirates were more than double those from the Black Knife Pirates.

Compared to the Black Knife Pirates, the Ten Colors Pirates are far inferior; the former is comparable to the Ghost Bone Pirates.

If Chen Qing can defeat the Ghost Bone Pirate Gang, the extraordinary points she obtains from them will be at least ten times more than those from the Ten Colors Pirate Gang.

The Black Knife Pirate Gang and the Ghost Bone Pirate Gang were of similar level, yet when Chen Qing killed them, he only received a tiny bit of extraordinary points.

The curse on them is truly terrifying; it has reduced their strength to such a degree.

With the help of the super-powered vines, Chen Qing quickly gathered all the belongings of the Ten-Colored Pirate Gang.

Including their pirate flag.

This was something Fire Monkey specifically told Chen Qing: the pirate flag symbolizes the face of the pirate crew, and removing the pirate's face is the bounty hunter's honor.

Some pirates would do the same.

The rewards for defeating the Ten Colors Pirates were not only Extraordinary Points, but also the bounty of nearly 500 goldfish on their person, and more than 300 goldfish in the treasure chest on the ship.

With the addition of the ten different colored weapons and equipment, Chen Qing could earn at least 1200 goldfish on this trip.

No wonder there are so many bounty hunters; if they can hunt down even a slightly famous pirate crew, their livelihood is practically guaranteed.

However, not all hunters can take on a pirate crew single-handedly like Chen Qing; great wealth always comes with danger.

The corpses of bounty hunters floating on the sea are the result.

Fire Monkey and her group of bounty hunters have their eyes on a pirate crew with a bounty of 1,000 goldfish.

Finally, two of their companions died and two others were seriously injured before the pirate crew was defeated.

Their earnings are around 2,000 goldfish. After deducting the cost of equipment, potions, and props, they are left with less than 1,500 goldfish.

After deducting the death benefits for the two deceased companions and the medical expenses for the seriously injured companion, the money, when divided equally among the eight people, would amount to less than 100 goldfish per person.

This hunt was made possible thanks to Dahlia, as the pirates gathered together, whereas in the past they would have had to pay a hefty informant fee.

Even mid-level bounty hunters have a tough time.

Fortunately, the goldfish they received will last them a long time.

Don't be fooled by the fact that those pirates' bounties are hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of goldfish; goldfish may seem worthless.

In fact, goldfish have an extremely strong purchasing power!

An ordinary family of three living on Sapphire Island spends about 8-12 silver crabs per month.

One goldfish can be exchanged for 1000 silver crabs.

However, for people with extraordinary abilities like Chen Qing, each expense must start at least with silver crabs.

Are you going to sell these equipment?

On their way back, Fire Monkey and her companions hitched a ride with Chen Qing, bringing an end to the battle between the pirate crew and the bounty hunters.

Although neither side knew the story, they both tacitly adhered to the principle of not pursuing a cornered enemy.

"If you're interested in making a sale, I can introduce you to a middleman; the shipment will be processed very quickly."

Fire Monkey and the others lay casually in the corner, talking to Chen Qing, who was collecting supplies with the super-powered vines.

She genuinely wanted to recruit Chen Qing into their bounty hunter team.

Such a promising talent.
