Chapter 121: Rock Safety Zone (Part 9)
In the rest area, E Shifang was already ready to hug his wife.
The moment Xie Mian landed, she rushed forward and hugged him, holding him up: "Wife, you are really amazing! You are so heroic and unparalleled!"
Feeling the happiness of being so close to his wife, he leaned close to her ear and said in a coquettish voice, "Honey, you won. Shouldn't we celebrate?"
Xie Mian gestured to E Shifang to put him down. His face was expressionless. He simply glanced at E Shifang calmly and said, "Is there anything else on your mind?"
"Wandering at night with candlelight, it's time to have fun! While I'm still here, let's work out some new moves."
Xie Mian really didn't want to discuss this matter with E Shifang in public. As they walked, he took a rose and stuffed it into E Shifang's mouth, blocking his mouth: "Which position haven't you tried?"
At this moment, Harry walked over quickly, his face showing unprecedented respect. "Mr. Xie, congratulations on your victory! Please follow me to the backstage to receive your S-level insect stone."
Xie Mian nodded without saying anything more. E Shifang followed closely beside him, as if he would never leave his side.
Looking at E Shifang's expression, Mrs. Xie blinked.
Could it be that I was mistaken, and the guy with the surname E is the one below?
Backstage was a heavily guarded room, and the heavy metal door slowly closed behind them.
The room was brightly lit, and several staff members in uniform, with half of their faces covered in crawling insect corpses, were guarding a huge safe.
Harry motioned for Xie Mian to come forward, and a staff member immediately and carefully took out the S-level insect stone and placed it on a special tray.
The moment everyone saw this insect stone, they visualized the "colorful black".
This S-level insect stone is particularly dazzling black and has a round shape. It looks like a large night-shining pearl dug out from the deep sea.
"Mr. Xie, please confirm."
The staff member said respectfully, handing over a document, "This is the delivery certificate for the S-level insect stone. You need to sign it."
Xie Mian took the document, took a quick look at it, confirmed that it was correct, and signed his name in the designated place.
When he took the insect stone, a pure and powerful energy instantly wrapped around his palm and squirmed outside his skin, as if trying to penetrate through his skin and drill into his flesh.
E Shifang sensed Xie Mian's daze, held the back of Xie Mian's hand, slowly moved down, and took the insect stone.
The black insect stone lay quietly in E Shifang's hand, no longer emitting any energy.
It looks like an ordinary stone.
At this time, Kuang Axe also limped to the backstage.
The wounds on his body had been treated by the insect-fellow medical staff and were basically healed. However, he had lost too much blood and his face was pale.
"Thank you for sparing my life!"
Kuang Axe's voice was hoarse as he bowed deeply to Xie Mian.
The losing gladiator was originally the winner's spoils of war. The winner could kill the gladiator and dig out the worm stone.
As a 4A insect follower, his insect stone is enough for a person to live a good life in the base for half his life, and it can also allow an insect follower to quickly improve his insect energy level.
Xie Mian nodded and accepted Kuang Axe's thanks.
Noticing Kuang Fu's admiring and grateful look towards his wife, E Shifang snorted coldly.
Seeing this, Harry said to Crazy Axe, "You should go back and recuperate first. The base will re-evaluate your level and mission arrangements."
The implication is that Kuang Axe's status has declined and is no longer what it used to be.
Kuang Axe nodded his head and did not dare to raise any objection.
Just as Xie Mian was about to leave, Madam Xie also twisted her waist and slowly stepped forward:
"Mr. Xie Mian, your strength is truly astonishing! It is our honor to have a strong man like you in charge of the black market." She moved closer and lowered her voice.
"If you need anything, whether it's rare supplies, special intelligence, or other... services, I can arrange it for you."
Xie Mian just glanced at her indifferently without saying anything, with a barely perceptible hint of vigilance in his eyes.
If a woman can thrive in the end times, her strength and means must not be underestimated.
After obtaining the S-level insect stone, Xie Mian and E Shifang returned to the villa.
As soon as he entered the room, E Shifang could not wait to hug Xie Mian from behind and put his arms around Xie Mian's waist.
"Wife, take a shower?"
"Um."
Xie Mian nodded, feeling the blood stain on his body was not pleasant. E Shifang hugged Xie Mian, but when they reached the bathroom door, Xie Mian grabbed them and locked them outside.
"No, my wife, why did you lock me out? Didn't we agree to take a bath together?"
Ignoring E Shifang's chattering outside the bathroom door, Xie Mian came out of the bathroom wiping his hair until all his fatigue subsided.
After drying his wife's hair, E Shifang couldn't wait to rush into the bathroom, and then jumped onto the bed like a big puppy.
Throw your wife under you.
Leaning against the head stuck in his neck, Xie Mian said, "Absorb the insect stone."
Um?
E Shifang was stunned for a moment, then pecked Xie Mian and said jokingly:
"Are you worried that your husband won't last long enough? Didn't he satisfy you last time?"
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Xie Mian pushed E Shifang away, sat up from the bed, and threw the insect stone into his arms:
"Two days ago, while you were sleeping, I examined your body. There is an energy black hole in your body..."
When he heard the word "black hole", E Shifang's heart skipped a beat.
The madness of the past two days made him a little careless, and he even forgot to cover his heart area.
All the energy of the Insect-Followed Ones was derived from the flow of the Insect Stone in their heart. His Insect Stone had been shattered, leaving nothing in his heart, which was why Xie Mian was able to detect a black hole in his body.
"Hahaha, well..."
E Shifang scratched his head and wanted to laugh it off, but under Xie Mian's serious gaze, he swallowed his saliva and dared not make up any more stories.
Everyone has their own secrets.
Xie Mian didn't want to force E Shifang to tell him something. He knew that if E Shifang was hiding something from him, it must be for his own good.
"Shifang, I want to be with you forever. So, you must be well!"
