Chapter 807 - 787: Energy Stone
CHAPTER 807: CHAPTER 787: ENERGY STONE
The two of them took the elevator back to their floor.
It was only then that Jiang Xiaoxiao realized that the elevator went directly to their floor, and there were no displays to go to other floors.
Only after stepping out of the elevator did she realize.
Outside the elevator, many people cast sinister glances at them, seeing that their hands were empty.
They couldn’t help but look at Youli.
It seemed like many people knew Youli.
"Youli, bringing this loser out again! Only three days out and you’re back. I’ve told you before, as long as you have this loser with you, you’ll never make it big in your life."
Many people laughed at Jiang Xiaoxiao.
Jiang Xiaoxiao said nothing. Here, she was Jiang Xiaoxiao, yet she wasn’t Jiang Xiaoxiao. This bewildering identity came with a brother, a grandmother, and a future sister-in-law who was sort of her sister-in-law.
The useless pampered lady in everyone’s eyes.
She didn’t know if it was because she had taken the place of the other person, or if they had exchanged souls.
Essentially, she would not want to swap with the other person.
If such a useless nature were in her life, it would surely wreak havoc in her household.
"Mind your own business."
Youli looked frosty as she pulled Jiang Xiaoxiao away.
When they arrived at Jiang Xiaoxiao’s room, Youli indeed took out three one-eyed sheep, "These are your first batch of spoils. Keep them well; they can feed you for at least a month. I was injured, and who would have thought the captain managed to buy me some advanced healing potion.
This kind of potion is very expensive. I was planning to leave for the 850th floor this month, but with such a big favor from the captain, I’ve decided to stay for another month to fight with the captain.
You did very well this time; it’s just right for me to guide you while I stay here for the month. If there’s a chance to catch the Demon’s Eye, you can come with me to the 850th floor."
This Youli was really something. In such a harsh environment, she managed to protect this loser until today.
It certainly wasn’t just for Jiang Xiaoxiao herself.
Without a word, Jiang Xiaoxiao divided one of the one-eyed sheep and gave it to Youli. She also took out that black gemstone.
"Sister Youli, take this with you. I’ll keep two sheep and let you have the other. You need to recuperate well, and this stone from the scorpion-shaped beast should belong to you."
After all, it was Youli who blinded that scorpion-shaped beast, giving her the opportunity.
Youli accepted the one-eyed sheep, "I won’t be polite about taking this one-eyed sheep back to eat, but you should keep the black gemstone. If it hadn’t been for your strike, I’d probably have died at the hands of the scorpion-shaped beast, let alone have this gemstone!
By right, this prize should be yours. Keep these gems well; you can exchange them for weapons, food, or even help pay fees for your grandmother in the mission hall!"
Youli turned and left.
Jiang Xiaoxiao locked the door.
This Youli was really quite good.
Suddenly, a voice echoed in her mind.
"Ten seconds left to exit the world! Ten... nine... eight..."
Jiang Xiaoxiao hurriedly put the one-eyed sheep into the fridge, clutching the black gemstone, as she was swept into darkness.
Once she experienced weightlessness again, she found herself back in her own room, looking just as she had left it.
Jiang Xiaoxiao checked the time, and surprisingly, only three hours had passed since she left.
She had been in that world for three days, but only three hours had passed here.
"Next task requires an Energy Stone. With one Energy Stone discovered, do you want to start now? The mission world time is three days. Energy Stones can be accumulated for longer time; otherwise, it can only be opened again after three days. Do you want to enter the mission world?"
Jiang Xiaoxiao looked at the black gemstone at her side; without doubt, this was the Energy Stone needed to open the world.
"Enter the mission world!"
With her voice, the black stone in her hand instantly vanished, and Jiang Xiaoxiao felt the weightlessness return once more.
In an instant, she was back in the room.
It seems that the Energy Stone needed to enter the mission world comes from the stones dropped by those monsters.
Jiang Xiaoxiao took out ten green gemstones from her space.
These were dropped by those one-eyed sheep.
Not every one of them drops a stone; the probability is about ten percent.
She had put them in her space at the time by chance, and experiments inadvertently proved that the space couldn’t be detected by the so-called Meteorite Ring.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t just be one Energy Stone, but eleven Energy Stones.
That was quite a pleasant surprise.
A day later, Youli came to tell her that the bearded captain and the others had returned.
The bearded captain was severely injured, and the other team members also had various injuries. This time, they nearly returned in defeat.
The Energy Stones they gathered weren’t enough for medicine and to visit the treatment center.
The treatment costs were very high.
Typically, they couldn’t afford to go there.
Jiang Xiaoxiao took a one-eyed sheep and went with Youli to visit the bearded captain.
The bearded captain’s name was Liu Jian.
Arriving at the bearded captain’s place, his room was only about half the size of Jiang Xiaoxiao’s room.
Inside was a double bed, suggesting the bearded captain didn’t live alone.
Their arrival immediately startled the people in the room. The bearded captain lay on the bed, face pale, barely clinging to life, his chest wrapped in white gauze.
A long-haired woman sat crying by the bedside. At the sound of the door opening, she looked up in fright.
Seeing Youli, her eyes flashed with jealousy.
"Xue Li, Xiaoxiao and I came to see the captain. How is he now?"
"He’s been unconscious since he returned. The others have gone to buy healing potions. But who knows if they’ll manage to buy advanced healing potions. If he hadn’t given the advanced healing potion to you, he wouldn’t have ended up like this."
Xue Li said angrily.
Youli showed a guilty expression on her face.
"Wait, who said the captain gave the advanced healing potion to my sister Youli?"
Xue Li clearly looked down on Jiang Xiaoxiao.
Jiang Xiaoxiao, though able to do good deeds, wasn’t going to do them anonymously.
"Don’t think I’m a fool. The others came back saying Youli encountered a scorpion-shaped beast and was sprayed with its venom. Without an advanced potion, how could she return unscathed?"
Her tone grew more intense.
The others opened the door to see Xue Li glaring at Jiang Xiaoxiao angrily.
"Sis, we pooled our resources and could only afford a bottle of low-grade healing potion. We can’t afford the treatment center fees, so you better let the captain drink the low-grade potion first."
Xue Li took it, "Your captain is such a fool, giving an advanced healing potion to others, and in the end, he ended up like this, only able to maintain his life with this low-grade healing potion. Your captain’s injury has reached his heart; if he doesn’t get treatment, he’ll really die."
Tears started to fall.
"Sis, who did the captain give the advanced healing potion to? Tell us, and we’ll find them. We must make them repay us with an advanced potion; we can’t let the captain die just like that."
Monkey was anxious.
With their status, being able to exchange for an advanced healing potion probably meant the captain had saved up a year’s worth of Energy Barytes to exchange for it. The recipient of such a big favor from the captain should definitely repay him, right?
