Desperate Night.

Chapter 497 Farewell
Inside Margaret's Water Element Palace.

Yu Hong and Harvey waited quietly for the inspector to arrive.

The air in the palace was cool and moist, but the smell was not pleasant, and there was a musty smell everywhere.

It was clear that Margaret didn't care about these things.

She finally arrived after Yu Hong and others had been waiting for more than an hour.

"How is it? What are the results of the investigation?" Margaret's figure gathered like water and appeared on the seat, looking at Yu Hong.

"It's basically a small space. Inside..." Yu Hong carefully recounted what happened after he entered.

"A black-winged stone statue? A burning city of buildings?" Margaret frowned. "I see. Now go outside to claim your mission reward. I'll look up some information to see where this place came from. Everything has its origin."

"Yes."

Yu Hong was led out of the hall and teleported out.

Following Harvey, they soon arrived at the place where the inspector said they could collect the mission rewards.

An old man who looked very fat, wearing a white apron with a hint of green, was arranging a pile of boxes of supplies neatly in the empty palace.

There were quite a few people already queuing here. About a dozen people with strange looks were waiting quietly.

Harvey pointed to the location, asked Yu Hong to line up, and left with his junior sister first.

Yu Hong stepped forward and lined up to the last spot.

As time passed, the people in front left one by one with the things they had received.

Soon it was Yu Hong's turn.

He stepped forward and stood in front of the fat old woman.

"Name, what do you want to receive? Who approved it?" the old woman asked coldly without raising her head.

"I'm Captain Yu of the Black Spirit, and I'm here to receive the mission reward issued by Chief Inspector Margaret." Yu Hong said briefly.

"Margaret?" The old woman paused slightly, and found a black package the size of a human head from a pile of packages and boxes.

Picking it up, she casually threw it to Yu Hong.

"this is yours."

"Thank you." Yu Hong took the package, walked to the side and opened it quickly.

The outer cloth was torn off, revealing a small black box inside.

He opened the lid of the box and found a small bottle inside. On the outside of the bottle was written in night script: Clear the Spirits.

“?” Yu Hong was stunned.

"This is not Star Alloy." He suspected that he had taken the wrong one and went back to ask the fat woman.

"Yes, this is yours. A standard dose of Qingshenling, which can calm the mind and soothe the spirit. It can probably be used for a week. This is the maximum dose that can be prescribed." The fat woman said with a little impatience.

"Is there anything else I haven't received? Please check." Yu Hong said again.

"They are all here. There is nothing else." The fat woman waved her hand, pushed Yu Hong away, and continued to distribute things to the next person.

Yu Hong silently stepped aside and looked at the small bottle in his hand. He had understood.

Margaret, this is going to default on your debt.
But even if he defaults on the debt, what can he do?
Make a scene here? Fight them directly? Grab the reward that belongs to me?

Yu Hong looked at the tightly closed palace gate of Margaret not far away, and then looked at the spirit-clearing medicine in his hand.

After a pause, he didn't say anything, but turned silently and walked towards the teleportation point.

Not long after, there was a flash of white light, and he disappeared into the teleportation array.

It was not until he completely disappeared that a team of tall water elementals dressed in aqua blue quietly appeared from the gate of the palace.

"He's a guy who knows how to deal with things." The leading water element, dressed in armor, muttered coldly.

"So what if you don't know the current situation? Are you going to rush in and fight? Although this guy at level three is good, any one of us can easily suppress him." Another water elemental on the side sneered.

"The teacher has ordered that if he dares to take action, he should be killed for trespassing. I didn't expect this guy to be so patient. He saved my life." The leading water element said with a smile.

"Since that guy has backed down, our mission is accomplished. Hunter, it's your turn to treat us today, right?" someone in the team said with a smile.

"Okay, okay, I, Hunter Dells, always keep my word! I'll pay for our trip to the Dark Forest today!" said the leading water element with a smile.

The group chatted and laughed as they left the palace gate and disappeared at the teleportation point.

On the other side, Yu Hong silently took the Qingshenling Pill and returned to Heiheiling.

The ship flew out of the Window of Light, slowly passed through the huge floating cities, and returned towards Harvey's Window of Light.

"I'll go back and say goodbye once, then it's time to go."

He thought to himself as he stood in front of the circular window, looking out at the floating city buildings that looked like mountain peaks.

There are numerous blue light windows like spots on the black building, each of which represents the entrance to a space.

Some are big, some are small, some are private, and some are public.

In addition, there are densely packed airships of various kinds and strange creatures glowing with golden light, constantly entering and exiting the window of light, and constantly passing by or traveling with the Black Spirit.

Yu Hong looked at the bustling scene here, but he clearly felt that he did not belong here.

He picked up the teleportation book, which had automatically turned to a certain page with a colorful and complex advertisement appearing on the page.

The previous second, a group of rainbow-colored snails were standing up against each other, dancing clumsily with their heavy shells on their backs to the sound of strange music.

The next second, they turned into two dragon-headed men wearing red and blue tights, standing on the boxing ring, with ferocious looks ready to fight, surrounded by a large group of cheering strange creatures.

The next second, it turned into an inky black earthworm, standing upright, wearing a Chinese robe worn by ancient men, standing on a solid-colored stage and performing a stand-up comedy.

Yu Hong looked at these bizarre scenes, and only then did he truly realize the value of this floating city, which accommodated countless races. Humans were not the only race here, nor were they even the largest group.

"What a pity." If possible, he would also like to stay and live a stable life, but reality is always so cruel.

He looked at the Qingshenling in his hand again and put it in his pocket.

Then it sped up and flew towards Harvey's window of light.

Bang.

Suddenly, a ball of green, snot-like mucus was hit on Heiheiling's window.

A green airship not far away rolled down its window, revealing a strong weirdo with a crocodile head, who cursed Yu Hong fiercely and loudly.

"You took advantage of me, you idiot!"

Yu Hong didn't reply, he just controlled the black spirit to tilt violently and flew out, brushing against the opponent's green airship.

puff.

The green airship collided with the black spirit, and a large piece of its outer skin was scraped off.

This made the crocodile head even angrier. He cursed loudly and smashed things behind, but he could not catch up with the black spirit in front.

Obviously, Heihei Ling's speed is slow in actual combat, but here, it happens to be a little faster than the opponent.

More than ten minutes later.

Yu Hong drove into Harvey's Window of Light and arrived at the Emerald Isle again.

The Black Spirit slowly descended.

Yu Hong walked out of the door and found that only Ku Chan, Yi Yi, Chi Xiao and others were there.

"Garfield and Fisina are participating in the assessment and cannot come. Because the God of Nature is not qualified, Fisina is now taking the assessment with Garfield. She is considered her fighting partner." Ku Chan explained simply.

"It doesn't matter." Yu Hong didn't care about those two people, as long as the two people in front of him arrived.

"What about you? When will you take part in the assessment?"

"It starts tomorrow." Ku Chan said, "But I'm lucky. I met an old gentleman in advance. He admires me very much and thinks I can enter the second stage in advance without taking the test."

He seemed to be in a good mood. The assessment went very smoothly.

"I tried it too, but the arcanist test is too difficult. I only tried the position of assistant, I wonder if I passed it?" Yi Yi followed from the side.

"It should be no problem. As for the assistant, the threshold is not high. If it really doesn't work out, I can give her a spot after I pass it." Ku Chan said seriously.

"Well, I believe you." Yu Hong nodded. He trusted Ku Chan's character.

"What about you? When are you leaving?" Ku Chan asked back.

".I'll leave tomorrow." Yu Hong replied.

He also planned to ask about the price of Star Spirit Alloy himself. If it was too expensive, he would see if he could buy some of the necessary resources himself.

He remembered that Margaret had broken her promise, but that was something he would come back to settle later. Now he needed to purchase supplies that would be needed immediately.

"I heard from Harvey that you went out on a mission and are back now. You should have obtained the Protoss Alloy, right?" Ku Chan asked casually.

Yu Hong didn't reply, but took out the bottle of Qingshenling and threw it to the other party.

"What is this?" Ku Chan asked doubtfully.

"Mission reward."

"Hmm?" Ku Chan's face changed. "Dying to pay?"

"Yes, I'm refusing to pay. It's because I'm too insignificant. In fact, I had some guesses before, but there are some things that you will only believe you have really encountered them when they really happen to you." Yu Hong said calmly.

"." Ku Chan looked at Qing Shenling, and the look under the mask was very ugly.

"This Qingshenling is only a few crystal coins a bottle on the market. Captain, the mission you are carrying out is worth at least tens of thousands of crystal coins! It's cruel and ruthless!"

"It doesn't matter, this is reality. I can accept it." Yu Hong looked cold.

Ku Chan didn't know what to say. He gritted his teeth and looked at the bottle of Qingshenling. He was silent for a long time and returned it to Yu Hong. Then he left with Yiyi, who looked confused.

Yu Hong didn't care. In such an environment, it was natural for the weak to be exploited. Obviously, Margaret thought he had no future, so she was not going to pay him the promised reward.

Can understand.

Now he is weak and can accept this reality.

It’s okay for the other party to do this.

When he is no longer weak and comes back to do the same thing to the other party, I believe that the other party will have the same awareness by then.

Reality treats me cruelly, and I respond with equal cruelty.

This is Yu Hong’s philosophy of life.

After a final inspection on Emerald Island that night, Yu Hong used the Book of Teleportation to remotely teleport and trade some crystal coins, and then used the crystal coins to buy a set of basic Arcanist Meditation.

The process of teleportation transaction is very simple. Just click on the teleportation book and click on what you want. Click three times in a row and the book will emit a small teleportation array on the ground in front of you.

Just put your stuff in.

Emma checked all the sales and brokered the transactions.

Very convenient.

It is equivalent to the online shopping of the Austrian version.
