Chapter 85: Sai Fulola 01
What is he holding in his arms?
Bao Jing replied: "They are chive dumplings. On Zhu Shen Xing, besides expired food and steamed buns, they are the cheapest food; it seems he even split them into several meals."
Upon hearing Bao Jing's words, Ye Xi'an sighed, dressed so splendidly yet living so frugally: "He's so wealthy; why does he do this?"
Bao Jing scoffed: "What else could it be.", he glanced at Ye Xi'an, his expression grim: "To attract females and marry into a wealthy family, that's all."
"Such males are nothing but gold-diggers; An'an, don't be fooled by their false appearances."
Er. Ye Xi'an didn't know what to say for a moment; should she say Bao Jing thinks too highly of her?
Even if they really are gold-diggers wanting to marry into a wealthy family, they still wouldn't look down on themselves.
Moreover, Ye Xi'an raised her head and glanced at that male again; she didn't think he was that kind of person.
"Let's stop chatting, we should go in.", Ji Jiangci was already eager, he took Ye Xi'an's hand and walked toward the Mission Hall.
Today there weren't many people in the Mission Hall; they quickly got in line for a machine.
Ye Xi'an swiftly swiped on the mission interface, wanting to find a high cost-performance mission; everyone gathered around her to watch.
Wait a moment.
Ye Xi'an's finger scrolling the page paused: "What's wrong?"
Ji Jiangci keenly spotted a special mission; however, since it was posted by a clan, its view count was relatively low, and the page layout was also much smaller.
Missions in the Mission Hall are divided into two types: one type issued by the Federation, usually just searching for energy and food, or scarce items, and the Contribution Points reward is generally high.
The other type is issued by clans, with more flexible pricing, depending on whether the clan is willing to spend money; but clan missions usually occupy a small spot on the mission interface, and if you're not careful you'll miss them.
"Open this mission.", Ji Jiangci said.
Ye Xi'an glanced at the mission Ji Jiangci mentioned; the mission page was just a small red patch with white "SOS" on it—a distress signal?
Ye Xi'an opened the mission page:
World: Sai Fulola.
Mission details: Rescue the family members of the mission poster (location: East 45 North 70).
Difficulty rating: two stars.
Distance: five hundred light-years.
Contribution Points: 50000000.
Space fee: 200000.
Number: Floor 10, Room 108.
Submission ratio: 0.
Mission expansion: none.
Planet overview: 'Sai' represents the unknown and mutation, 'Fulla' comes from plant flora; Sai Fulola is overgrown with mutant plants—beware of their sap and root systems, which can be eradicated with fire.
Weapon recommendation: Fire Gun (energy: fire crystal; price: 2,000,000; usage period: permanent).
Note: The mission poster has already prepaid the space fee.
Ye Xi'an was first dazed by the string of zeros after the Contribution Points, then seeing in the note that the mission poster had already prepaid the space fee—meaning this mission is free?
A craving for money—no, for Contribution Points—burst forth in Ye Xi'an's eyes.
"Let's pick this one!", her voice full of surprise, obviously taken with this mission.
But nobody spoke up hastily; they were all thinking something over. After all, this mission is a bit strange.
A clan that can afford this price must be powerful and influential; the males' abilities in the clan are undoubtedly top-notch, yet the mission is to rescue clan members?
How could such a clan possibly be trapped by a two-star difficulty planet? Everything feels off.
"I think we should forget this mission; we've just done the second mission, everyone's experience is still insufficient, rushing in could be dangerous.", If he were alone, Bao Jing would definitely go without hesitation—at worst it'd be just death—but now he has a wife and also a goal to live for, life becomes especially precious.
"Why?" Ye Xi'an looked at the string of zeros on the screen, somewhat reluctant; if this mission succeeded, they'd strike it rich, could rent a nice place to live for a long time.
"The mission feels off.", Ji Jiangci also sensed some danger.
Ye Xi'an didn't want to give up: "Anyway, it costs nothing; let's go check it out—if we can save them, we save them; if the situation is dangerous and we can't save them, we'll stay far away."
It also happens to be a chance to go over there and find something to enrich the Xiao Shijie's ecosystem.
Ye Xi'an's words made everyone a bit hesitant; this mission is indeed tempting—if we just hang in a little, we can still earn some extra income.
"Then let's take this one—however, An'an, if danger arises you must stay behind us.", Bao Jing's tone paused, then turned heavy: "If anyone encounters danger, you must absolutely not rush forward; hurry and run."
"Don't say that," Ye Xi'an said, feeling uneasy; she didn't want to see anyone encounter danger, but she understood—she bore everyone's lives on her shoulders: "Don't worry, I'll protect myself well."
Saying that, Ye Xi'an accepted the Sai Fulola planet mission, holding the medicine key as she prepared to go upstairs to find the space gate.
"Wait a moment.", Lin Zhi Jing, after Ye Xi'an finished accepting the mission, quickly searched on the machine for the Sai Fulola planet mission, found it, glanced at it not really looking, randomly clicked one, picked up the medicine key and followed Ye Xi'an upstairs.
The two groups transmitted one after another, meeting up in another world.
The moment Ye Xi'an emerged from the space gate, she was stunned by the planet's scenery—a place she didn't even dare imagine.
Before her eyes, Sai Fulola was covered in endless, strangely shaped purple plants, resembling a deep violet sea.
On the ground, towering purple trees stretched out wide leaves, the leaves covered in fine crimson veins, flickering with a faint dim light.
The trunks were deep purple, surfaces uneven, twisted vines densely entwined upon them, the vines blooming with huge purple flowers, exuding a faint sweet fragrance.
In the low shrubbery, purple grass blades swayed in the wind, like countless tiny purple waves undulating across the ground.
Occasionally, huge purple mushrooms sprouted in the grass, their caps covered in sparkling droplets, like nature's glass artwork.
The planet's rivers and lakes were also encircled by purple plants, the water surface covered with purple duckweed, sparsely blooming with a few lotus-like flowers, petals dotted with crystal-clear dew, reflecting brilliant light.
The whole planet seemed like a purple world, even the air permeated with a faint purple mist; when sunlight shone through, it refracted into dreamlike purple light.
Ye Xi'an stood there, almost blending into the environment.
"Why are the plants here purple?", Ye Xi'an thought, this totally defies biology—with so many purple plants wanting to obtain nutrients, they'd definitely need photosynthesis.
Everyone can cast recommendation votes, monthly votes, so that Xiao Jiu can see your enthusiasm, then they'll have more motivation to write!
