Chapter 70: Invitation from the Academy

Translator: Translated Henyee Editor: Translated Henyee

Not surprisingly, the deployment of defenses around the — main base including several missile launchers and — laser cannons were all aimed at the Magical Corpse Beast.

The guards saw friends sitting on top of the creature and asked everyone to hold their fire. Although they still had to thoroughly inspect the badges of the returning group settlers so that they did not accidentally invite the spies controlled by the hostile Astral Pets. Such tragedies occurred several times when the Beast King or low-level parasites planned to infiltrate the base. As the second line of defense that protected the base city, they had to ensure security.

After making sure everything was in order, the guards quietly remembered Su Ping's name. Not many settler teams have such powerful Astral Pets as mounts.

“Sorry sir, but you have to return your partner into your pet room,” a guard spoke politely to Ye Chenshan, when he thought the giant creature belonged to Team Polaris. "Large sized pets are not allowed to walk freely in the facility."

Ye Chenshan cleared his throat. “Ahem, Mr. Su, the man is right, I am worried. You should leave your doll outside for now. ”

Some guards looked at Su Ping in great surprise. They thought this young man was the son of a wealthy family who had gone to seek experience.

But... Even “rich children” will not be able to call a rank eight pet without having the power to control it.

“No need.” Su Ping shook his head. "I gave up this thing to get the reward."

The Magical Corpse Beast was a Little Skeleton puppet and could not fit into his personal pet space. Since he couldn't keep it with him in the base city, it would be best to get rid of him.

Moreover, he did not need such a damning creature to help him fight when he had the Little Skeleton. And it seemed that he did not plan to fight the Astral Pets frequently in the barren. Had he had to return some time in the future, he would probably have found a dead pet and made another doll out of it.

The others, however, could not accept his decision. Everyone would definitely want that incredible mount to show off. Why did they hand it over to the Federation?

Fan Ganglie even tried to persuade Su Ping, who was not listening at all.

After ordering the puppet to put the Nether Ore on the ground, Su Ping told the Small Skeleton to cancel out the puppet effect. Once the Life Corpse energy was taken away, the Magical Corpse Beast turned into a pile of bones.

The others inevitably felt their hearts ache when they saw Su Ping hand over such a precious tool. But they can't do anything.

A transport team at the base came and took all the bones and Nether Ore further inside.

“Sialang. Waste...” Fan Ganglie muttered.

Others more or less knew that Su Ping was not with them. Since the shopkeeper usually stayed in the base city, he did not use Magical Corpse Beast much.

"All right." Fan Ganglie and Li Ying nodded back. "Good luck, man."

Su Ping also showed his politeness. "See you next time."

"I'll find time to talk about your compensation in a few days." Ye Chenshan is gone.

No one objected. They knew someone like Ye Chenshan would not hold them back.

Before leaving, both Ye Chenshan and Luo Guxue asked to exchange contact information.

"This is where I work in the base city," Luo Guxue said, as he handed his business card to Su Ping. “If you are interested, I hope you can come to our academy. With such skills and potential, you will benefit from many upcoming pet fighters and enrich our future.”

Su Ping read the card and found the name on the card familiar. It seems that this "academy" is where her sister goes to school. Luo Guxue was a senior professor.

"I'll think about it."

Lu Guxue thanked everyone politely and went after Ye Chenshan.

A moment later, the report of the reward they gave back. They had earned a total of 1.6 million merit points.

That was a large sum, according to what Su Ping learned from Fan Ganglie the other day. As he remembered, the merit points for killing first rank were 10, second was 50, third was 100. Then the price will rise from here. One thousand, ten thousand ... to reach 500,000 for a seventh rank assassination.

As for rank eight pets, even the weakest ones were worth at least a million. The Magical Corpse Beast was an intermediate rank eight, so 1.6 million was a very reasonable result.

However, Fan Ganglie did not look happy when he saw the results. "Berinsk. They completed the payment based on the ordinary Magical Corpse Beast.”

The Magical Corpse Beast they took back was simply not "ordinary" when it could use Black Annihilation, a ninth rank skill. As Fan Ganglie believed, they should be rewarded twice as much. But they could not argue anymore because the corpse could not prove anything. No one suggested a second checkup. That's not gonna work.

Su Ping had no problems with the results at all. Achievement points could earn him enough rewards.

Also, he was listed as the beast's killer in the end, as everyone agreed. A single record had increased Su Ping from a recruit all the way to the Silver level.

The next level was Gold, which required him to obtain a total of five million merit points.

Above Gold were honorable settlers who could hunt down ninth rank enemies, meaning over 10 million merit points for each kill. Just like the titled fighting pet fighters, the esteemed settlers are the most respected individuals on the planet.
