Chapter 610 Spring
"I don't know."
"Was it mentioned in the mission description?"
Xiao Weiqing winked at Leibo.
Leibo raised an eyebrow, immediately understanding.
"Hey, Randy, you know who we are, right? You're not trying to scam us, are you?"
Leibo snapped at Landy.
Landy sighed. She really couldn't afford to offend the two people in front of her, but it was impossible for her to just let them take the things away like that.
"Gentlemen, what I'm talking about is a spring, the Black Spring."
"It was precisely because of this spring that Black Spring Star was chosen by my father back then."
"The source of the Black Spring?"
Leib narrowed his eyes.
"That's right." Landy nodded. "Please return the spring, and Landy will reward you handsomely."
"Of course, the two of you can also take it away. In the future, Black Spring Star will no longer produce Black Spring Stones, let alone Black Spring Crystals, and will slowly become a useless waste star."
"Oh ho, what's this, threatening us now?"
Leibow scoffed.
"I wouldn't dare, but if word gets out that you two have accepted the mission, it might not be good for your reputation, nor for the reputation of the Holy Land."
"Haha~~"
"Haha~~"
Leib laughed, a somewhat unrestrained laugh.
"That's interesting."
Leibo suppressed his smile, opened a virtual interface, and carefully reviewed the task.
then.
I also searched for the Black Spring within the Holy Land system.
"Black Spring, 800-1000 million credits?"
"Xiao Weiqing, did you take it?"
"Um."
Xiao Weiqing nodded.
"Give it back to them."
"it is good."
Xiao Weiqing didn't ask anything. He stretched out his hand and opened his palm. A black bowl-shaped object about three inches in diameter appeared, and water began to gurgle out of the black bowl.
"Is this the spring you were talking about?"
"good."
Landy smiled when she saw the spring.
Xiao Weiqing threw the spring out.
Landy took it and carefully put it away.
"Thank you both."
"Wait, don't thank me yet."
Leibo said coldly.
"Rest assured, both of you, I will prepare a generous gift for you."
Leibo interrupted, "No need."
"To be honest, now I understand why you didn't dare send anyone to take back the planet even though it had been occupied."
Landy didn't understand what Leibo meant, and subconsciously retorted, "That's because Ori lied to me. I never thought he would betray me."
"That's because you're stupid!"
Leibo shouted.
"What do you mean?!"
Landy was furious. Even if the two people in front of her helped her reclaim Black Spring Star and the spring, it didn't mean that Leibo could insult her.
"Literal meaning."
"Your poor judgment of people is your problem, but that's not the point. The point is that you concealed the location of the Black Spring, which wasn't mentioned at all in the mission materials."
"this......"
Landy was speechless, but he concealed the fact that because there was a Black Spring, the commission for the mission would be on a completely different level.
"Why......"
Leibo sighed when he saw Landy's expression.
"That's why I say you're stupid."
"I was wondering why I encountered a Starry Sky Black Python here; it turns out it's hiding a great treasure."
"Leibow, let's go, let the Holy Land handle this."
Xiao Weiqing was getting impatient.
"it is good."
"Wait, what do you mean? What does the Holy Land need to deal with?"
For some reason, Landy felt inexplicably flustered; she seemed to have made a mistake.
Leibo looked at Landy pitifully.
"When it comes to treasures, the Holy Land's mission rating is not as simple as a sixth-level S-rank; it requires at least a seventh-level member to accept it."
"If it weren't for Xiao Weiqing, any other member of the sixth level of the Heavenly Realm would have suffered a great loss, or even lost their life here."
"The reason for all this is that you concealed a great treasure. I have every reason to believe that you are plotting to harm the members of the Holy Land."
"I don't!"
Landy's expression changed drastically. She couldn't admit to this, otherwise not only her, but the civilization she belonged to would suffer. If it were proven true, even her father wouldn't be able to protect her.
Leibo shook his head. "The Holy Land will investigate this matter. You can't just say whatever you want."
"Don't worry, we will explain the situation truthfully when we get back. As for the rest, you can explain it to the Holy Land enforcement team."
"Xiao Weiqing, let's go."
The two were about to leave.
"No, you can't leave."
Landy stepped in front of Xiao Weiqing and Leibo.
If she lets the two leave now, things will become unclear. She can't guarantee that they won't exaggerate the situation, and she doesn't believe they won't. After all, it's a fact that the two encountered a Starry Sky Black Python at the Sovereign Realm.
It is also true that she concealed the location of the Black Spring from the Holy Land.
"So you're stupid, daring to block our way."
"Do you realize that with your current behavior, even if we kill you, you'll die in vain?"
Leibo was utterly dumbfounded by this woman's stupidity. Did she really want to keep him and Xiao Weiqing with her?
"Wait, wait, gentlemen, let's talk this out."
An elderly man appeared, accompanying Landy.
"My lords, I swear that we have absolutely no knowledge of the Starry Sky Black Python, and we have absolutely no intention of harming the members of the Holy Land."
"snort."
Leib scoffed, "Otherwise what? Otherwise, do you think you'd still be standing here talking to us?"
"Then I'll have to trouble you two..."
"Help? Help with what?"
"We take the money, do the tasks, and once the tasks are completed, the rest is none of our business. We'll even return the Black Spring to you."
"No, sir, you've made a mistake."
The old man bowed his head and said.
Leib frowned.
"A mistake?"
"Yes, there's a mistake."
"We didn't know there were springs on Black Spring Star. We only had some guesses before, which led to a series of events. It was all a misunderstanding."
"We are extremely grateful to the two gentlemen for helping us find the Black Spring on Black Spring Star, eliminating the traitors, and even killing the alien star beasts that seized the spring."
"Therefore, we have decided to divide the spring into four parts: one for each of the two adults, one for the sacred site, and one for ourselves."
"Uncle Mohen!"
Landy was getting impatient and said in a low voice.
The old man ignored Landy and looked at Xiao Weiqing instead. He knew that only Xiao Weiqing could make the final decision among those present. Although Leibo seemed strong, he would look at Xiao Weiqing from time to time to ask for his opinion.
"What does this gentleman think?"
Xiao Weiqing revealed a playful smile. The saying "an elder in the family is like a treasure" must be referring to the old man in front of him.
As for Randy, she's obviously a fool who's been too well protected and hasn't been beaten up much.
There's a saying that goes something like that.
A bad person's elaborate schemes are no match for a fool's quick thinking.
"Leibeau, what do you think?"
A quarter of the spring, even if you don't want it, it's fake. Even if you sell it, it's worth a million or two credits, which is a huge sum of money.
But since this task was assigned to Leibo, Xiao Weiqing wouldn't overstep his bounds and do it for him.
Leibo pondered for a moment, then asked, "Can this black spring be divided?"
"Sure, just leave it to us."
"You really didn't know that Black Spring Star had a spring before?"
"We don't know anything about alien beasts from the stars. We only deduce that Auri betrayed us, so we issued a mission in the Holy Land to request assistance."
Leibo nodded. "I see. Then it seems the mission data is indeed correct."
The old man understood, "Landley, the spring."
Upon hearing this, Landy reluctantly took out the spring.
The old man took out a strangely shaped object from the middle-aged man, very quickly.
The spring was divided into four parts.
"My lord, these three springs are considered secondary springs. At most, they will become a complete black spring in ten years. However, it will take a long time for them to develop to their original size."
Leibo looked at the three springs, each about an inch in size, and asked, "Are you sure?"
"Sure."
"Okay, I'll trust you this once."
"Xiao Weiqing, let's go."
