Chapter 179: Chapter 84 Out of Control

"What about the trade with Black Umbrella? The Absolute Spirit Weapon?" Li Yelai suddenly asked.

Rescuing the Spirit Extinguisher was the best outcome, but the trade with the ark couldn’t be ignored.

There were two types of trades with Buttercup Black Umbrella: one was to offer the head of the Flying Gunman, and the other was to offer the Absolute Spirit Weapon.

The rewards were respectively the recipe for the Third Awakening Potion of the True Martial Path and the recipe for the Sixth Sense Elixir of the Zero Path.

Upon hearing this, Yin Fire had a peculiar expression on his face and looked at Li Yelai for a while before saying, "The first trade seems impossible to complete now..."

"Isn’t it the second kind that’s impossible to complete?" Li Yelai was astonished. The first kind involved trading the head of the Flying Gunman, who was already dead, which should have been easy, right?

The second type involved the Absolute Spirit Weapon, a weapon far too precious.

In all of Giant City, probably only the five throwing spears obtained this time were Absolute Spirit Weapon.

Moreover, they were crafted from the arm bones of that Spirit Extinguisher. Ethically and morally speaking, it wasn’t appropriate to trade them. What would the Spirit Extinguishers who secretly joined the officials think?

"Don’t worry about that. The Spirit Extinguisher allowed us to handle the Absolute Spirit Weapon ourselves. Her view was that since it was already gone, we might as well create more value for humans. We can trade one. By the way, these are your spoils of war; you can apply to use the Absolute Spirit Weapon if necessary," Yin Fire explained.

"As for the head of the Flying Gunman... three days ago, when Doll came to rescue you, she saw you were barely clinging to life. It nearly drove her mad, and she smashed the body of the Flying Gunman to pieces," Yin Fire spread his hands, "The pieces were scattered everywhere... The logistics team’s Processor was overwhelmed; what head could there be for you to trade? Just say that officials arrived and there wasn’t time to sever the head of the Flying Gunman."

Li Yelai was shocked; Doll had only told him that the Flying Gunman was thoroughly dead but hadn’t mentioned how.

Speaking of which, Yin Fire laughed, "I rarely see Doll show such an angry posture... but I can understand, if my life were affected by a curse, yet I met a friend who could ignore my curse and interact with me normally, I would also treasure them."

"The good news is, the Spirit Extinguisher also has extremely high curse resistance. Doll will likely gain another friend," Li Yelai laughed.

Indeed, this was a good thing; not only could the Spirit Extinguisher use Anti-Spiritual power, but she also had strong curse resistance. She should be able to be unaffected by the curses from Doll, Li Yunyan, and Little Mad King, just like Li Yelai.

This was good news; once the existence of the Spirit Extinguishers was no longer a secret, the situations of Doll and the others would improve.

Yin Fire hesitated momentarily, looking at Li Yelai with some skepticism.

Damn, it always felt like they weren’t talking about the same thing.

He sighed and said, "Alright, lad, your personality is quite similar to Yang Chen’s."

Then, he picked an apple and said, "You rest here a few more days, recover well. After ensuring there are no mistakes, you can be discharged. Don’t worry, this is an official hospital. Both patients and doctors are comrades or civilian personnel; there’s no need to worry about exposing your identity."

Li Yelai nodded.

For the next two or three days, many people visited Li Yelai.

It allowed Li Yelai to deeply feel his comrades’ care.

Most of them didn’t know Li Yelai had rescued the Spirit Extinguisher; they only knew he had fought against a Third Awakening and then saved several civilians.

Hence, the way they looked at Li Yelai was filled with respect and warmth.

When Yang Chen visited Li Yelai, he said that once he recovered, he could try advancing to the Third Awakening. He had contacted several Ye Boshou to personally act as protectors for Li Yelai.

When Starfire came to see Li Yelai with Shadow Stream, he complained that Li Yelai had run too fast at that time, leaving him alone in the car, utterly bewildered. He later heard that Li Yelai was severely injured, which scared him half to death.

When Heavy Knight visited, he still didn’t talk much. Fortunately, Detective happened to come and fiercely criticized Li Yelai for being too reckless. He suggested taking some private jobs to relax. Li Yelai could only nod in agreement.

Cheese sometimes brought milk tea, sometimes fruit.

While Doll brought some meals.

So much so that Li Yelai felt he had gained some weight during these days.

The unfortunate part was, they visited every day, but the two never met.

On the fourth day after waking up, once Li Yelai confirmed he had fully recovered, he was finally discharged.

And the official rewards had arrived too.

Although the official concealed Li Yelai’s merits in rescuing the Spirit Extinguisher, they certainly didn’t forget his feat of killing a dangerous Third Awakening Spirit User.

Li Yelai received thirty Merit Points and a thirty thousand Giant City Coin bonus.

This brought Li Yelai’s Merit Points back up to seventy-five.

Li Yelai drove back home to reassure his little sister, only to be surprised to find she had also gained some weight.

"What... what have you been eating?" Li Yelai was shocked. During his hospitalization, Doll and Cheese had been taking care of Li Yunyan.

He hadn’t expected that they would feed her until she gained weight.

Li Yunyan, who was working hard at losing weight with a hula hoop, retorted with a smirk, "I couldn’t let their kindness go to waste. Who knows, they might become my sisters-in-law someday... cough, so both the milk tea Cheese Sister brought and the roasted chicken from Doll Sister, I showed them off!"

Then, with a serious look, Li Yunyan turned to Li Yelai: "If you don’t come back sooner, I might gain another five pounds!"

At a loss for words, Li Yelai could only comfort her: "Being a bit chubby looks good."
