My Special Ability is Perfect Replication - Chapter 68
Chapter 68: Deal Closed, Mission Accomplished
“Captain Ling, you are awesome!”
“Even the GM of Vulcan isn’t Captain Ling’s match. Who else in Lantian Base City can beat Captain Ling?”
“Miss Luo is the Number One fighter in Lantian Base City, and Jin Chao from Vulcan comes in second. Since Captain Ling has defeated Jin Chao, Captain Ling isn’t far from Miss Luo, I guess?”
“Captain Ling is only sixteen, yet already so capable. He should be qualified to join the Super Training Camp, where the best of the best gathered.”
His team members followed him from behind and kept flattering him, some apparently sucking up to him, and more at awe and admiration.
“That’s enough. Let’s focus on hunting the Direbeasts. Don’t drop the ball!”
“Who is still afraid of the Direbeasts when Captain Ling is here?”
There was laughter from the team members. But everyone got in the groove quickly. Ling Jiu was leading, using gravity force to suppress hostile as his teammates charged forward and hunted.
“Kill!”
Boom!
They were on a roll until nearly nightfall. Almost all Direbeasts in the Heihu Mountain Pass had been hunted down. The few left behind were the ones lingering on their last breath.
“Let’s fill our faces and take a good rest for the night. We will finish off the rest of the Direbeasts tomorrow morning, then we can return to the company!”
“Yes, Captain Ling!”
After their dinner, the teammates went to sleep in the abandoned building while Ling Jiu stayed outside to absorb the gene energy.
Just then, ripples formed in the air nearby and a fine shaped girl appeared.
She was tall, and had a wonderfully pretty face, silky-smooth long hair and impeccable skin; she was like a ravishing figure walking out from a painting.
“It has only been a month, and you have become a Level-Five arcanist. You have exceeded my expectation!” The girl ran her fingers through the hair cascading down her ear.
Ling Jiu’s heart skipped a beat. When he saw who she was, he forced a smile. “Your sudden appearance almost scared the hell out of me, miss!”
“Oh, really?”
Ai Yuhe tittered as she came up, sat down beside Ling Jiu, and jarred the bonfire, flaming it up further.
“You know why I am here, don’t you?” Ai Yuhe steered the topic.
“Because of this?”
Ling Jiu nodded at the Ironclad Ox-dragon Serpent egg appearing in his hand.
“That’s right.”
Her eyes flashed. “I’ve been here watching as you and Jin Chao fought. Just that I didn’t reveal myself!
“Honestly, I’m shocked. I still remember you were only a Level-Three arcanist a month ago. You have risen to become a Level-Five arcanist in just a short one month. What you achieved is nothing short of incredible!”
“You are wrong, Miss. My combat strength might be equal to that of a Level-Five arcanist, but I am still at Level Four!” Ling Jiu corrected her.
“Level Four?”
Ai Yuhe cocked an eyebrow. “A Level-Four arcanist could kill a Level-Five arcanist. You are more terrific than I have thought!”
“I am flattered, Miss!”
The two talked for a while before Ling Jiu passed the Ironclad Ox-dragon Serpent egg to her. “Check the goods, Miss!”
“No problem!”
Ai Yuhe accepted the thing. “This is a legit Ironclad Ox-dragon Serpent egg, two years and three months old, nine months to go before it hatches!”
“You can even see that?” Ling Jiu was surprised.
“Special instrument!” Ai Yuhe had a beautiful smile. “30 billion dollars and 300 contribution points, right?”
“Yes!”
“Tell me your bank account number!”
The transfer was successful, and Ling Jiu had an additional 30 billion dollars in his account, which now stood at 34 billion.
“My net worth will spike again, and I can buy a maglev airship after selling all the stuff!”
Ling Jiu was on cloud nine as he saw the many digits of zero in his account. It seemed like a dream to own that kind of money.
“It’s done!”
Ai Yuhe let out a smile. “We will see again, young billionaire!”
“Are you leaving so quickly, miss? I couldn’t bear to see you going! Your every smile, every move, and eyes captivate me.”
Ling Jiu pulled a sad face.
Ai Yuhe blushed. “Are you trying to flirt with me, kid? Not that it matters. Just that it sounds so awkward. Are you waiting for me to laugh till I die so you can take back the Ironclad Ox-dragon Serpent egg?”
Ling Jiu let out an awkward smile. “It is not flirting but words from the bottom of my heart!”
“Save it! I don’t buy this!”
Smile faded from Ai Yuhe’s face as she took out a maglev car and was ready to leave. Before leaving, she suddenly looked back at Ling Jiu with a smile. “See you around!”
She disappeared into the maglev car and left.
Ling Jiu looked in the direction where the maglev car disappeared, and could not help but laugh.
“As the adage goes, a fair maiden is all a good young man is after! I may not be a good young man, but I love fair maidens!”
…
After practicing self-cultivation for a night, he had replenished the Gene Arcana that he had exhausted. Not only that, it had become even more powerful than before. The Sea of Hundred Rivers was no doubt wonderful stuff.
After breakfast, Ling Jiu and others continued their hunt and had killed all Direbeasts within fifty miles radius of Heihu Mountain Pass.
At two or three in the afternoon, they returned to the company and went straight to the appraisal department to meet Lee Kai and Wang Yun—Lee Kai’s master.
“The harvest is a little more than usual this time, Master Wang!”
“The more, the merrier!”
After the pleasantries, the appraisal process began.
First up was the Class-2 and -3 Direbeasts.
Then it was the Class-4 and -5.
Because of the sheer number of Direbeasts, the appraisal took some time. Ling Jiu instructed Chen Feng and others to keep an eye on the process while he was away to the general manager’s office.
“You are back!”
Luo Jia looked like she was in a pickle.
“Yeah, I’m back!”
Ling Jiu nodded as he smiled.
“I have heard about the Heihu Mountain Pass!”
Luo Jia still had the same expression on her face. “To be honest, I knew you would surpass me soon, but did not expect it to be this quick!”
“Has the incident at the Heihu Mountain Pass brought trouble to the company, Miss Luo?”
“A little, but not a big deal!”
Luo Jia shrugged it off with a smile. “Because of you defeating Jin Chao, Pangu has become even more famous in Lantian Base City and stolen the limelight from Vulcan!”
“That’s great!”
Ling Jiu smiled and cut to the chase. “I’m here to sell something, Miss Luo.”
Luo Jia cocked an eyebrow.
Before this, Ling Jiu had sold Icehollow Weed, Snowdragon Bile, and Ironclad Ox-dragon Serpent egg. So what’s next?
Luo Jia was in anticipation.
“It is bunch of Bloodfeast Souleater Spiders!”
