The Emperor's Kingdom had already obtained the black wooden block and threw him away violently.

After leaving the cave, the black mist stopped emanating and instead flowed slowly, revealing a bloody glow.

It then transformed into a piece of minced meat.

The shark that was writhing wildly outside now seemed to have lost its energy, its tail drooping, and its level dropped to C!

Yan Zi sealed its body with several arrows, but did not kill it completely.

Yan Zi breathed a heavy sigh of relief, while Su Man behind her also breathed heavily for several breaths.

"Have we succeeded?"

Yan Zi nodded, and the Emperor's Kingdom rushed over.

In the blink of an eye, I saw two girls hugging each other.

He awkwardly stepped forward and pulled Su Man to his side.

Yan Zi remained silent.

"Now we can take it back. What about that piece of wood?"

The gentleman took a piece of cloth out of his pocket, then opened it to reveal a pile of minced meat, which was disgusting.

Yan Zi: "??"

Emperor's Kingdom: "I thought you liked it and wanted to see it!"

Yan Zi: "...(f***)"

If looks could kill, the entire imperial kingdom would probably have been assassinated by her several times over.

The group tied the shark up like a dumpling and dragged it directly to the dead-eyed fish.

The fish stared at the shark with unfocused, dead-fish eyes, its expression one of disbelief.

"You actually brought it back?"

Yan Zi: "Didn't you want to see it? We brought it back for you, aren't you happy?"

Dead Fish Eyes let out a sigh.

[Ding! Congratulations on completing Dead Fish Eyes' request: You have obtained a blue treasure chest]

Upon hearing this, everyone stared intently at the guy lying on the ground pretending to be dead.

Yan Zi: "This system is really good at hiding things!"

Su Man: "If we had killed it just now in self-defense, we probably wouldn't have even gotten the treasure chest."

The way everyone looked at Dead Fish Eyes suddenly became strange, with a hint of scrutiny.

The dead fish eye act just couldn't be maintained anymore!

"There's another treasure chest hidden inside that fish's belly. Once you remove the black object from its body, you'll complete the mission and getting a purple treasure chest won't be a problem!"

They exchanged glances, and then it was the Emperor's Kingdom who made the move, directly cutting open the shark's belly and taking out the black object. As soon as the object was taken out, it instantly turned into a pile of rotting flesh.

The dead fish eyes shrank instantly upon seeing this thing.

"This is……"

Yan Zi: "What is this thing?"

Dead Fish Eyes opened his mouth again, but they still didn't hear him.

Yan Zi had some thoughts in her mind. Perhaps what it was saying was something they couldn't access at this stage, so it was forcibly blocked by the system.

Since that's the case, there's no point in dwelling on it any longer, and everyone quickly moved on from this little incident.

As for this shark, everyone just took some scales to use, and the Emperor even kindly stitched up its wounds.

[Ding! Congratulations on successfully rescuing the two giant beasts in the deep sea. You have each received a purple treasure chest.]

[This mission has been completed perfectly. Do you wish to return?]

The group bid farewell to the two fish-like creatures.

Before leaving, Yan Zi had a scale stuffed into her palm.

...

Back at the transit station, the Emperor's Kingdom kept a close eye on her palm.

Yan Zi: "What? You think you can steal my things from your own turf?"

Emperor Kingdom shook his head: "I clearly helped them stitch up their bodies, so why did they give the items to you?"

Yan Zi remained silent, then tossed the scale from her palm to him and pressed the escape button.

She didn't know what the two fish were planning, and they casually tossed her a scale. The contents of the scale made her feel terrible!

Since the Emperor's Kingdom is so curious, then let's leave this to them!

【Item: Fish and Beast Scales (Green)】

[Description: Scales dropped from special fish-beasts from the deep sea possess magical abilities and can be used to craft items and equipment, with no limit on the number of times.]

[Usage Requirements: The crafted equipment will be upgraded to blue quality. Each time a piece of equipment is crafted, you must return to the Deep Sea to help them quell a beast tide.]

Upon seeing this additional requirement, the Emperor's Kingdom couldn't help but smirk. That fish-beast was truly cunning.

They even put this kind of requirement on him!

"Tianyu, why doesn't Yan Zi want that scale anymore? Isn't it something valuable?"

Su Man was a little worried. Although she didn't think Yan Zi would lose things for no reason, that sentence did have a strange feeling. Could it be that this thing had some additional effect?

The Emperor sighed helplessly and tossed the scales to her, telling her to look at them herself.

"That guy deliberately dumped it on us!"

He ground his teeth in anger.

Suman: "Doesn't this mean that if we have to return to the deep sea for a long time in the future, we will still have to buy equipment from her?"

The Emperor's Kingdom nodded.

"This guy really doesn't want to do even the slightest trouble!"

Su Man smiled and said, "This might not be a bad thing. She's clearly helping us!"

The Emperor looked at her in shock. They had only known each other for less than a day, how could she have turned against him like this?

Su Man rolled her eyes today. She can't even see this little thing clearly. She's blind!

Upon returning to the shelter, Yan Zi immediately checked on her contracted beast.

The prickly gourd has been completely renovated, and the large hole in the shelter has been repaired.

The level has been raised to C-rank, and the progress is now faster than that of Akagi.

Yan Zi breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that it was in good condition.

The white fox approached and inquired about her situation.

"How was your trip? Did you level up?"

Yan Zi: "My level has broken through level 30, and my experience has reached 520,000. I will continue to go out and grind for more levels later."

The white fox breathed a sigh of relief.

Yan Zi pinched its chubby little cheeks: "My strength is not weak, why are you so worried about me?"

The white fox sighed, "This sanctuary is yours after all. I can't rest easy until you're properly settled in."

Yan Zi rolled her eyes speechlessly.

This little fox is still as sharp-tongued as ever!

The next experience boost will cost 50,000 each time.

Yan Zi frowned slightly.

They once again took out a new fragment map to explore.

The white fox saw that she had searched and searched but had not found a place she liked.

It stepped forward and pointed to three areas.

"Now that you're level 30, you're bound to not get enough experience from fighting monsters of the same level. You should focus your efforts on these aliens!"

Yan Zi looked in the direction his claws pointed and frowned.

"A drought demon? Are you sure?"

The white fox nodded. "These monsters don't care about the living or the dead. Killing them is the fastest way to gain experience, and they will reproduce indefinitely, helping you level up. It shouldn't be a problem!"

Yan Zi checked her remaining fragments and found that there were six fragments leading to this area. She only needed to find four more fragments to set off.

Without hesitation, she continued to issue recruitment invitations!

Soon, she assembled another team!
