59: Chapter 58: Respect the Virtuous and Value the Soldiers (Second Update)_1
So it was you, little guy, despising Chief and ignoring Vanessa for two days, making us wait in vain for two days.
Abigail Turner glanced back at the “Repair Ghost” behind her, but she couldn’t bring herself to scold it.
This ghost being was extremely powerful, not only a Tier-2 ghost, but also comparable to the Second Level cultivator, and extremely evil, possessing a strong corrupting ability.
If one wasn’t careful, even an ordinary Second Level cultivator could have their soul corroded and end up as a corpse “patch” to repair this being!
Her team, well-prepared, could capture ordinary Tier-2 ghost beings, but when facing this ghost, they were swallowed up in a fight…
And this young Trial Training General solved it all by himself.
Such power could not be underestimated!
The key point was that the Repair Ghost was still under his control.
If they angered him and the chain lock was loosened, the Repair Ghost could swallow them up again in one bite.
“Trial Training General Owen is truly a young hero.” Abigail squeezed out a smile and reluctantly praised.
Owen Bertram said, “You guys haven’t returned yet, so Chief Vanessa asked me to come and check.” He shook the chain lock in his hand, “How should we deal with this ghost being?
Should we kill it?”
One of Abigail’s subordinates said, “Trial Training General Owen may not know, but this Repair Ghost is extremely difficult to eliminate.
If even a shred of its ghostly soul escapes, it’ll form a new Repair Ghost, bringing endless trouble.”
Owen laughed and retracted the chain lock, making a clang sound.
A scorching red light burst from the lock, causing the Repair Ghost to writhe in pain, shrinking by more than half in an instant.
Many bat-like ghost shadows flew out from the Repair Ghost’s body, but they were all burned to ashes under the red light.
“Just don’t let it escape then,” said Owen nonchalantly.
The subordinate was dumbfounded, feeling for a moment as if the basic facts he had learned when he joined the Horizon Bureau were a lie.
He recovered quickly, realizing that they were powerless against the Repair Ghost not because of its power, but because Owen was simply too strong.
“Wait!” Abigail hurriedly stopped Owen, “It’s worth more alive.”
With her words, Owen grew interested and immediately stopped the chain lock.
Abigail smiled, “This Repair Ghost can be used to craft magical instruments, which can be exchanged for a whopping 500 Meritorious Copper Coins in our Horizon Bureau.”
“Do you know the Meritorious Copper Coins?
In our bureau, many good things can’t be bought with money, only with Meritorious Copper Coins.”
“If we bring this Repair Ghost back, we can…” Abigail hesitated, originally thinking to give Owen 60% of the rewards for saving her life.
However, an old Chief nearby winked at her repeatedly.
This elderly man was specifically arranged by the family to assist her, and the two had developed a good understanding.
Abigail caught on immediately, her eyes lighting up as she said, “We can cooperate, and I’ll give you all 500 Meritorious Copper Coins to show my gratitude for saving my life.”
Owen pretended to be polite, “How can I accept that?
Why don’t I give you 10?”
Ten…
What a generous boy you are.
Abigail forced a smile, “No need, it’s your credit.
Don’t refuse anymore, or you’ll be looking down on this Lord Prescott.”
Owen immediately went along with it, “Respect is better than obedience.”
The other military officers also realized that Lord Prescott wanted to win Owen over.
Owen was originally Vanessa’s man, but judging by the fact that he hadn’t interacted with her for two days, it was clear what their relationship was like.
Abigail felt that with just a little effort, she could definitely win Owen over.
What could Vanessa offer compared to her?
Her position was lower, and her cultivation weaker.
Why would Owen be devoted to her?
Because of her pretty face?
Ridiculous!
Immediately, Abigail ordered her subordinates to take out a strange little cauldron, a magical instrument specifically used by the Horizon Bureau to capture ghost beings, and stored the Repair Ghost inside.
Then, she used dozens of talismans to seal the cauldron tightly.
Owen put away the chain lock and saluted, “I’ll be going back then.
If Lord Prescott has any orders, just send a token.”
“Don’t be in a hurry.” Abigail took out three Spirit Jades, “This is the reward from last time, I brought them with me.”
Owen was overjoyed, “Thank you, Lord Prescott.”
These items were used to make spirit bullets, which Owen had been in need of recently.
“Alright, you can go back now.
If you need any help, feel free to contact me.”
As they parted, Abigail asked the old Chief Flag on the way, “How can I recruit this talent under my command?”
Not only was it Owen’s own strength, but the chain lock also left the Tier-2 Repair Ghost powerless!
Old Chief Flag said, “My lord, it’s just a matter of four words: Respect the Talented and Virtuous.”
…
Owen finally stopped messing around and seriously acted as a Pearl Diver for a day.
In fact, he had already discovered that the pearls produced in the village, similar to the Spirit Jades, contained the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
That’s why they were considered precious, not just because they were beautiful and luxurious.
In the world of cultivators, the value of simple gemstones wasn’t high.
However, the pearls he had found in the Hunshui River before contained very thin spiritual energy.
Today, Owen swam around the river and discovered three pearls.
Although they were small, the spiritual energy they contained was comparable to that of Spirit Jades!
Owen had not cared for Spirit Jade materials before, but now that he paid attention, he quickly found the common point between pearls and Spirit Jades.
“Amazing!” Owen secretly rejoiced, “One pearl can make just one spirit bullet.
I don’t have to worry about the lack of Spirit Jades.”
In the afternoon, Little Loach insisted on showing Owen what it could do.
So Owen patiently watched from the shadows.
Little Loach hid itself somewhere by the riverside, its whole body shrunken into the mud and sand.
After a boring wait of more than a shichen (2 hours), a Hawk Tiger Beast came to drink water by the riverside.
Little Loach suddenly sprang out, biting its neck and coiling around it.
In one swift move, it dragged the Tier-2 Demon Beast into the water!
The water’s surface churned violently as the powerful Tier-2 Beast struggled in its dying moments.
Surrounding water creatures scattered, with several Tier-2 beasts lurking in the distance, hoping to profit from the situation.
Tier-1 beasts didn’t dare to think about it, for fear of being collateral damage.
Little Loach could have had a great fight against a Hawk Tiger Beast of the same level, but taking advantage of its surprise attack, coupled with the disadvantage the land creature had in the water, the Hawk Tiger Beast didn’t last long.
Soon, it started sending out bubbles and sank slowly, becoming a delicious meal for Little Loach.
Owen couldn’t help but give it a thumbs-up: this tactic was very similar to a crocodile’s.
