Chapter 457 Acting Together
So he quickly took out an energy box from his spatial storage and handed it over with both hands. "This is the crystal core of a fifth-tier phantom beast. When you replace it for him later, be a little gentler. He has multiple fractures and internal injuries."
Gu Qing took out the crystal core without hesitation, but she felt a little embarrassed and quickly withdrew her hand.
"What are you doing? I may love money, but we've been through thick and thin together!" He glanced at the box with lingering affection before moving it away.
If he hadn't said that, Gu Qing wouldn't have felt uneasy. But now that he had, she was even more worried. After all, if he hadn't been stirring things up, things wouldn't have turned out this way.
As he looked up to head towards the tent, he saw Gu Qing's questioning gaze. Caishen glared at her and began to threaten, "What kind of look is that? If you keep looking at me like that, I might change my mind."
"No, no, I'm just shocked. Why are you helping us like this?" This is partly a compliment and partly the truth.
The God of Wealth didn't mince words, but answered seriously, "Haven't you noticed that you haven't seen my spiritual form since I landed on this planet?"
"Haven't you seen it?" Gu Qing was puzzled. His spiritual body had always been in a mimicry form; even if he saw her, he wouldn't be able to detect it!
He gave a wry smile, as if he knew what Gu Qing was thinking. "It didn't mimic. My pollution level was already as high as 79 before. Just now, because I was protecting your spirit body to escape, my pollution level has exceeded 80 and is close to 90."
Seeing Gu Qing's wide-eyed stare, as if he wasn't shocked enough, he unbuttoned the collar of his protective suit and pulled it down, revealing large patches of skin unlike human skin growing below his neck.
When Lou Xiaoyu's pollution level exceeded 80 points, people's minds would begin to wander, but this person was able to communicate, think, and fight normally with her.
It's easy to imagine how strong his willpower must be.
Then, as if offering some advice, he added, "But you don't need to worry too much. We people who have crawled out of the mire have a lot of endurance. If I were to lose my mind, I would be at least 95%."
"Right now, only the spiritual form can't be released; the skills are still usable."
He said something that sounded like a word of comfort but completely missed the point. Then he turned and went inside to help Chen Xingheng change into his protective suit.
While changing clothes, he carefully observed the other person's palm and noticed a pattern resembling suction cups.
He wasn't lying.
But this is even more terrifying. What if he enters a state of chaos?
Gu Qing kept glancing at him, and eventually Caishen became uneasy. He barely managed to change his clothes before looking back at Gu Qing with his brows furrowed tightly.
Finally, gritting her teeth, she asked, "Do you have a crush on me?"
"Could you wear a suppressor?"
Their voices rang out simultaneously.
The God of Wealth's expression cracked. "What did you say?"
How can this woman have no compassion at all?
His tone frightened Gu Qing somewhat, after all, she wasn't completely reckless yet, so she smiled and explained, "I'm doing this for your own good, since the suppressor can also suppress your pollution and mutation."
As she spoke, her eyes began to wander, for everyone knew her true purpose.
The God of Wealth put his hands on his hips, took a few deep breaths, and then said, "Of the three of us, I'm the only one with fighting power right now. If I were to wear a suppressor, anyone strong enough to come at me would be wiped out."
Gu Qing blinked. "I have combat robots in my space."
"That will have to wait until the investigation is almost complete. The combat robots are energy-powered, and the energy itself can attract alien beasts..."
"Forget it, you wouldn't understand even if I told you. Don't worry, I won't go crazy and eat you."
As he spoke, he became somewhat disheartened. He turned and left the tent.
Gu Qing quickly stood up and followed me. "That's not what I meant. It's not that I don't want to treat you, but I've already exhausted my energy because of this escape."
It will probably take about two more hours for it to recover.
She picked at her hand with her fingers, "And now that I've recovered, I want to treat Xingheng first, since his injury can't be delayed."
If his mental state collapses, then there's nothing that can be done. I'll finish repairing Xingheng in a bit, and then I'll decide on your treatment schedule based on the results.
The God of Wealth walked in front of her with his back to her. Hearing his words, he slightly curled the corners of his mouth. Then he pressed down hard and turned to look at Gu Qing.
