Chapter 264 Purification Ability
In the brief moment of commotion, the group plunged back into the sea, and the surface calmed down once more.
"They encountered a swarm of electric eels, which are rare lightning-type crystal cores." Qi Bai took a step forward with interest.
"Aren't electric eels solitary creatures? How come there are groups of electric eels?" Gu Qing couldn't remember when she had seen such a report in her original world.
"They usually live alone, but they mate together every year during this month. My second brother and the others searched for several days but couldn't find a mating spot for electric eels."
"I'm really lucky today; this group looks quite large."
As they were talking, they saw several flying phantoms carrying people, flying low over the sea, ready to provide support at any time.
If they saw anyone injured, they would pull them up and send them back to the ship. At this time, Bai Yujie and Meng Yan also came over to help with the treatment and purification.
After all, being injured means an increase in mental pollution, it's just a matter of how much.
Gu Qing hadn't been assigned these tasks because she had previously treated Lou Xiaoyu. However, she was currently at her peak condition, and although she was worried about Lou Xiaoyu, she still joined in the rescue efforts.
The sound of the detectors kept coming from the deck. If the pollution level exceeded 60 points, a spiritual entity would be released to undergo purification.
As luck would have it, there was an octopus spirit, with a pollution level of 67. However, it exhibited a very strong aversion to them, not allowing Meng Yan's butterfly or Bai Yujie's orchid mantis to approach.
Gu Qing quickly summoned Little Cloud. Now she and Little Cloud were in sync; unless specifically instructed, they would always appear pure white.
Little Cloud and Gu Qing shared the same feeling. As soon as they came out, they flew aggressively in front of the octopus, put their hands on their hips and puffed out their cheeks. This time, the octopus did not show obvious rejection, but it seemed to be intimidated and shrank into a ball.
Seeing it like this, Little Cloud sighed helplessly, clearly conveying to Gu Qing that this guy was socially awkward.
Gu Qing tried to think of sad things to avoid being amused by the little adult's performance. Then she quickly coaxed it to purify the other person.
The little cloud wasn't reckless; it drifted slowly over, eventually unfolding itself to wrap up the other cloud, which was curled up in a ball.
The opponent's level was low, and even though Little Cloud purified 20 points of pollution value for it, it only turned grayish. It released the octopus spirit's body.
The little octopus stretched lazily, and then, somewhat reluctantly, stretched out one of its tentacles as if to try and keep it from leaving.
But Xiaoyunduo didn't linger and went straight back to Gu Qing's side, waiting to receive praise from others. After all, every time she purified a spiritual body, the owner of the spiritual body would at least give her some praise.
However, this time, the owner of the spiritual body was so overjoyed that he almost thought he would have to return to the base under such high pollution.
Little Cloud was genuinely unhappy this time, so Gu Qing quickly chimed in with the praise that should have been given, "Wow, Little Cloud is really amazing! Evolving to B-rank is now completely effortless for you!"
Hearing Gu Qing's slightly exaggerated praise, the others who had nothing else to do quickly followed suit and praised her as well, one after another, which greatly satisfied Xiao Yunduo.
Even the entire cloud seemed to be turning pink.
Bamboo Slip also saw it, and raised his eyebrows slightly. He was also shocked by Gu Qing's purification ability, considering that Gu Qing had only been upgraded for two days.
Compared to Meng Yan, who is at the A level, she is still somewhat inferior, but compared to Bai Yujie, who is at the late stage of the final stage, she is not inferior. If Gu Qing can reach the mid-stage of the B level, wouldn't her purification ability catch up with Meng Yan, who is at the A level?
His mind was racing, but his face remained impassive as he calmly directed the men on the ship to defend and the men below to encircle and attack.
Just then, someone brought up the corpses of the dead electric eels. Gu Qing felt a chill run down her spine. This was a serious case of mutation!
Its size has increased more than tenfold, but its sharp teeth are chilling to look at. Its skin is blackish-blue, and occasionally, when it twitches, arcs of electricity flash across its body.
They were thrown onto the deck, where the fighters immediately seized their crystal cores; even the most resilient among them were instantly killed.
They took the crystal core and some of the meat. The rest they would either throw into the sea before leaving to serve as food for other sea creatures, or take with them to use as bait.
"How's the battle going over there?" Seeing Gu Qing's worry, Qi Bai pulled one of his brothers, who was about to go back to fight, aside and asked.
