Seeing Liu Tianhao's mocking expression, Lu Yuan couldn't help but twitch his lips.
Goodness.
As expected of someone trained by Yang Lin, their sharp tongues are practically identical.
Turning to look at Lin Manman again, she seemed about to cry from anger.
“You can scold me all you want, but the captain and the others went with you to hunt down the Black Feather Tiger Beast. You all came back unharmed, but they are so badly injured. There’s definitely something fishy going on here! If you don’t find a way to heal the captain and the others, I’ll report you to the leadership when I get back for taking revenge on your own!”
As soon as Lin Manman said this, the atmosphere at the scene immediately became tense.
The third squad, led by Liu Tianhao, all stared coldly at her, as if they would act immediately if Yang Lin gave the order!
Yang Lin waved his hand expressionlessly.
"I told you, there's nothing we can do to help Captain Zhao and the others with their injuries. Even if you complain to headquarters, it's all for nothing."
Seemingly not expecting Yang Lin's attitude to be so firm, Lin Manman's voice trailed off. After a long silence, she gritted her teeth and stepped forward as if she had made a great decision.
"I'm willing to give up my treasure in exchange for your ability to save the captain and the others."
Upon hearing this, Yang Lin raised an eyebrow and subconsciously looked at Lu Yuan beside him.
"What kind of treasure is it?" Lu Yuan asked.
"What's it to you if I'm talking to Captain Yang?" Lin Manman glared at him.
“Mr. Lu can speak on my behalf. I advise Miss Lin to be more polite!” Yang Lin’s face darkened instantly, and he warned in a low voice.
Even Liu Tianhao and the others standing nearby turned around angrily.
That expression made it seem as if Lin Manman had done something unforgivable.
Lin Manman was startled and could only answer honestly.
"It's a spirit pill from a level-elemental demon beast. That beast awakened a healing talent, and this spirit pill was originally left to me by the captain to improve my strength..."
Lin Manman bit her lower lip tightly, not really wanting to take out the elixir.
After all, healing-type monsters are extremely rare, let alone earth spirit level ones. As long as her tamed beast absorbs this spirit pill, her strength will definitely improve even further!
But there's no other way right now.
To be honest, Zhao Hun was really good to her.
If Zhao Hun really dies, then the Divine Martial Pavilion will definitely choose someone else to be the squad leader, and her treatment and status will not necessarily be the same as they are now.
Driven by vanity, she chose to offer the elixir to save Zhao Hun.
Moreover, she knew that no one in the third squad had awakened a healing talent, so even if she gave this elixir to Yang Lin, he would definitely resell it.
If she says a few nice words to Zhao Hun, he will definitely help her buy the elixir back!
After figuring it out, she took out the elixir and handed it to Yang Lin.
"I've shown enough sincerity. Captain Yang shouldn't be a petty person, right?"
Yang Lin was amused by these words.
This woman has truly mastered the art of moral blackmail.
However, he did not refuse directly. Instead, he turned to look at Lu Yuan, because they really had no way to save Zhao Hun. Only if Lu Yuan took action could Zhao Hun and the others have a chance of survival.
"How so?"
"The elixir from a healing-type demon beast of the Earth Spirit level is indeed very attractive," Lu Yuan said, stroking his chin.
Hearing Lu Yuan's words, Lin Manman was overjoyed.
"That……"
Before Lin Manman could even raise the corners of her mouth, she heard Lu Yuan speak next.
"But that's not enough."
"Isn't that enough? Do you even know how rare healing-type monster pills are? And the one I have is an Earth Spirit level pill. Any healing-type beast tamer of any level would be tempted by it! You're definitely not a healer, that's why you're so clueless!"
Lin Manman's chest heaved, her face flushed red with anger.
I don't know why.
When she first saw Lu Yuan, she disliked the man very much, especially his calm and indifferent eyes. They seemed to see right through her, even though they didn't show any emotion, which made her feel very uncomfortable.
"Healing elixirs for monsters are indeed rare, but they're only worth a few hundred million on the market. That's not enough to buy Captain Zhao and his men's lives. Or do you think Captain Zhao and his men's lives are worthless?"
Lu Yuan glanced at Lin Manman indifferently, and Lin Manman immediately felt her breath catch in her throat.
What is this person saying?
What do you mean by something that would only be worth a few hundred million on the market?
This was already an extremely precious treasure to her, and yet people still looked down on it?!
And he even went so far as to put a huge accusation on her.
Not paying extra would mean that Zhao Hun and the others were worthless, but paying extra was something she simply couldn't bear to do.
It already pained her to give away the elixir; if anything else were to be added, she might as well just let Zhao Hun and the others die!
Just then.
Seeing Lin Manman's troubled expression, the other members of the first squad immediately jumped out.
"You think you can just add things like that? What if you're just trying to scam us and can't actually save our captain?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Manman's eyes immediately lit up, and she put on a righteous expression.
"I can give you more money, but only if you rescue the captain and the others first!"
Once Zhao Hun regains consciousness and learns the reason for the incident, he will definitely not let her pay the money. In fact, he will be very moved by her actions, and her status in the team will definitely rise to a higher level.
And now.
All she needs to do is put on an act of righteous indignation and genuine concern for them.
"Sure!"
Lu Yuan didn't care at all what Lin Manman was planning.
For him, only the chips are the most important thing.
"I can save Captain Zhao and the others, but in addition to this healing elixir, you will have to pay me two hundred million!"
"What?!"
Upon hearing Lu Yuan's conditions, Lin Manman's eyes widened immediately.
"You only saved five people, yet you dare to ask for two hundred million? Why don't you just rob us?!"
Lu Yuan raised an eyebrow and smiled.
"What? So in Miss Lin's eyes, Captain Zhao and the others' lives aren't even worth forty million? Then there's nothing more to say. It's just that Captain Zhao and the others' lives are worthless! If you admit it like that, then I might as well help the poor."
Looking at Lu Yuan's sarcastic smile, Lin Manman ground her back teeth fiercely.
"good!"
"Two hundred million it is! But if you can't save Captain Zhao and the others, don't even think about leaving here unscathed!"
