Chapter 81: Chapter 81 Endless Wool to Pluck
"Whew..."
Moments later, the tornado slowly dissipated, and the charred and severely injured body of the Black Water Snake King crashed to the ground, whimpering weakly.
Seeing the Snake King defeated, the countless Black Water Snakes hurriedly retreated into the river, not daring to make any move.
Not far away, three people stared in disbelief at everything that had just occurred.
"How is it possible? Both are Dangerous Nine Stars monsters, why is my Black Water Snake so much weaker?" Zhou He said with a grim expression.
"I told you not to ask me, and yet you still ask..."
"What should we do? This Radon has set its sights on us."
"Damn it, and you still ask..." Du Liang cursed.
Beside him, Zhou He calculated in his mind and then looked in Qin Shou’s direction.
"Let’s go to Qin Shou. His two Beast Cultivations should be able to hold off this Radon."
"That’s right, let’s lead the trouble eastward..."
Before Du Liang could finish his sentence, the greedy snake and King Kong suddenly disappeared into the Space Gate.
Du Liang: "..."
"Damn! That kid ran away."
"No, he’s using the dense forest as cover and is heading toward us."
Zhou He pointed at Qin Shou running towards them, his eyes wary.
*At a time like this, why is he coming over? There must be something fishy!*
High above, Radon hovered in the sky, keeping a close watch on the three, but did not immediately launch an attack.
The three did not dare to make any rash moves either, unsure if any movement would provoke an attack from Radon.
Flying monsters especially loved chasing prey that tried to escape.
If the prey stayed put, maybe they could delay for a while.
At this moment, Qin Shou quietly positioned himself under the shade of a tree not far from the three, wearing a standard professional smile.
"Haha, it seems the three of you are in trouble. Is there anything you need my help with?" he called out softly.
Du Liang quickly nodded, "Of course, of course. Help us lure that Radon away, and we will surely reward you handsomely!"
Qin Shou nodded, "It seems the three of you are sincere. I’ll take this job."
"Great, we..."
"Hold on, let’s talk about compensation first."
"Uh..."
Zhou He pointed his index finger, wearing a face that implied someone was taking advantage.
"One Earth Core Energy Crystal!"
Qin Shou shook his head with a sigh, "Ah, it seems your sincerity is fake. Fine, fine, you all look after yourselves. I’ll be on my way."
As he spoke, he was about to leave under the "cover" of the tree shade.
Seeing this, the three dared not make a move, fearing it could trigger an attack from Radon.
"Wait, we can negotiate..."
*Zhou He panicked, this guy sure had a big appetite.*
"No negotiations, you saw Radon’s power too. The risk of saving you is too high." Qin Shou waved his hand.
Du Liang hastily shouted, "Qin... brother, wait a moment. Besides the one Earth Core Energy Crystal he offered, I’ll add another one."
Qin Shou shook his head, still unmoved.
"Wait, I’ll also add one, making it three in total..."
"Damn it, this kid’s appetite is too big..."
"Alright, four in total should be enough..."
"Firm price, five!"
"Hey, hey, don’t go, we’ll each contribute two, making it six Earth Core Energy Crystals in total. We’re really stretching our limits here, not a single one left..."
Qin Shou suddenly stopped in his tracks, turned around, and said, "Three Earth Core Energy Crystals each, and I’ll reluctantly agree to help you."
Zhou He angrily said, "Nine? Why don’t you just rob us?"
Qin Shou sneered, "You can ask Mr. Fang from West City, nine Earth Core Energy Crystals is already a discount.
Last time he had to offer fifteen before I reluctantly agreed to help him."
The mention of this made the three look ashen.
Fifteen Earth Core Energy Crystals...
Could Fatty Fang’s father really be willing to give him so many resources with such mediocre qualifications?
"Ah!"
Suddenly, Radon, hovering high above, seemed to have lost its patience and swooped down towards the three, claws faintly extended.
"Alright, alright, we agree, nine Earth Core Energy Crystals..."
"Me too, nine it is, hurry up and save us..."
"That’s right, I agree..."
The three shouted in panic.
"Hahaha, I didn’t force you," Qin Shou said with a pleased smile, casually opening the Space Gate.
"Roar!!"
The greedy snake shot out, letting out a provoking roar, and "finally" led Radon in another direction.
Moments later, seeing Radon and the greedy snake flying off, Qin Shou approached the three and stretched out his hand, "Hurry up, my Dragon Beast won’t last long."
Seeing how easily Radon was led away, the three exchanged looks and silently communicated.
"Ahem, here’s the thing, we didn’t bring any Earth Core Energy Crystals this time, so we’ll owe you first, and we’ll send them to your home when we get back."
"Yes, yes, let’s do that, see you later..."
"Take care, take care..."
The three chuckled awkwardly as they were about to leave.
Qin Shou’s expression remained unchanged as he casually tapped the communicator to play a video.
In the video, the three could be seen begging Qin Shou to save them and "willingly" offering nine Earth Core Energy Crystals as payment."
"Gentlemen, the video serves as evidence. If you want to renege, there’s nothing I can do. See you in the Arbitration Court then," Qin Shou shrugged with a smile.
The three’s expressions stiffened.
*To think he recorded the video in advance, this kid is too cunning.*
With the video as evidence, if it went to the Arbitration Court, they’d surely lose the case.
They might even face double compensation, which would be too costly.
*Perhaps... no, no, the Space Gate hasn’t recovered, we’re no match for this guy.*
*Looks like we’ll have to resign ourselves to fate.*
The three were on the verge of tears.
Unlike Fatty Fang, they just couldn’t afford such losses!!
...
On the way back, Qin Shou rode on the greedy snake, flying low.
Having smoothly acquired nine Earth Core Energy Crystals, the smile on Qin Shou’s face never faltered.
*Indeed, there were no sheep that couldn’t be fleeced in this world, only fat ones that hadn’t been found.*
*This job suits me perfectly.*
As for those three who deliberately posted a false mission to lure him to Black Water River with no good intentions, Qin Shou naturally wouldn’t go easy on them.
After securing those three mechs, he also had to ensure the three’s safety without letting them suspect anything, so he could continue "fleecing sheep" in the future.
This operation had a bit of difficulty.
Looking at the distant Killing Wolf Territory, Qin Shou retracted the greedy snake and used the Big Big Wolf Transformation Card.
He stroked his round balding head and chuckled, *Dear Wolf King, did you miss me?*
...
Night fell.
Under the moonlight, the Sha Po Wolf Group howled into the sky.
In the distant dense forest, three figures whispered among themselves.
"Flying with battle armor at night could easily attract the attention of the Sha Po Wolf Group. Perhaps we should avoid their territory?"
"No need, let’s wait here until the Space Gate recovers. Once we retrieve the mechs, with our combined strength, as long as the Wolf King doesn’t make a move, we have nothing to fear."
"Right, and in three hours, the Space Gate will recover. Let’s just wait here. We’ll be back in the city soon."
The three reached an agreement and stayed within the barrier, waiting quietly for the Space Gate to recover.
"Crack..."
After some time, there was a sudden noise from the barrier.
