Chapter 265 Interpersonal Relationships
The fighter who was being held back was covered in dirt, but his expression was one of delight. "This is a very large group, but there are three high-level electric eels inside, and Chief Lou and his men are holding them back."
The other groups have been mostly cleared out; the next step is to deal with the higher-ranking ones. The initial haul, after covering all levels, is more than enough to complete the mission and still have room to spare.
After giving his instructions in a very fast voice, the man stepped on his spiritual body and quickly headed in that direction again.
Meanwhile, Lou Xiaoyu was floating in the sea with her hands behind her back. Not far away, three fifth-tier and eleven or twelve fourth-tier electric eels were being surrounded and attacked by a group of people.
Electric eels are incredibly agile in the water, but someone somehow managed to create a cage using ice-type abilities. However, due to insufficient level, electric eels keep breaking through the cage.
Fortunately, there were people watching over each direction, and if anything unexpected happened, someone would use their superpowers to fix it in time, while the others would attack from the opening.
The Lou family and several other families also watched from a distance.
They generally don't intervene against those of this level; they just stand by and watch. Only if they attract other high-level creatures or groups of strange beasts will they step in to help.
That's why no one objects when the Purifier takes a portion of the loot during each hunt, since it's not just the Purifier who contributes.
Even the accompanying followers they brought were a considerable fighting force for each team.
Even though the fighter said it would be over soon, the battle still lasted for several hours, mainly because there were always strange beasts attracted to it during the battle, disrupting the rhythm of the fight.
Moreover, fighting in the sea is really not something humans are good at.
Although the spiritual entities that fought separately were all aquatic creatures, their combat strength differed from that of the alien beasts, but fortunately, the difference in level could compensate for it.
Although two people were seriously injured and countless others were slightly injured, the fact that no one was killed is the best possible outcome.
Bamboo Slip quickly extracted the crystal cores from the electric eels he brought back and divided their bodies, distributing them to the participants on the spot, while the rest were immediately returned to the group.
There are dedicated financial staff in the group to keep records, as well as dedicated space ability users to store them. Space abilities are divided into two types: storage and attack. Regardless of which type of space ability a fighter possesses, they are all treasures in the group.
Even for stored combatants, once their spatial level reaches a certain point, it can be adjusted to some extent. Reaching S-level is close to permanent preservation, if not true.
Their team's is a B-grade item, which doesn't quite reach the state of absolute freshness, but it's still much better than the space twist and energy box in terms of freshness.
Lou Qing took everything that had been distributed to them and handed it directly to Gu Qing, saying, "Madam, this is the haul from this trip. I've cleaned it all up, so you can put it away."
"Shouldn't it be distributed to others first?" If this kind of thing is distributed to them, the people who brought it out will get a small portion, and the rest will be hers.
Lou Qing quickly shook his head upon hearing this, "Madam, we are only here to protect you according to the interstellar regulations, but you risked your life to save my clan leader. These things are not even a token of our gratitude, but just an expression of our feelings."
Besides, if the clan needs anything in the future, we'll have to trouble you again."
These people are all shrewd and naturally saw Gu Qing's potential. Although Gu Qing was acting out of courtesy, it was normal for her to perform spiritual purification for the people in the clan as long as the clan paid the corresponding compensation.
However, it's quite normal for wives to be disrespectful and inconsiderate towards husbands who are not favored.
"If that's your attitude, then I really have to accept it. Otherwise, you'll be too embarrassed to ask me for help in the future, which would put my Xiaoyu in a difficult position."
With a joke and a promise, Gu Qing accepted these things directly, which not only saved face for Lou Xiaoyu but also increased the goodwill of these people towards him.
Sure enough, the elder of the Lou family quickly came over to speak, "We have all seen how much the madam dotes on this boy. If there is anything in the future, just let us know when you return to the clan."
We old folks may not have great skills, but we have connections and talent, so we're not too bad at all. We should be able to help you a little, right?
"You're just joking with me. Your talent is second to none in the Lord's Church, and it's also among the best in the Federation..."
In a charade, everyone flatters you; you offer a word of praise, and I'll offer a word of exchange, using your resources to gain my talent. Self-interest is often more reliable than personal relationships.
