Chapter 38: Inviting Everyone to a Drink!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Looking at Su Bai’s shocked expression, McKay was already used to people showing such expressions to him.
He withdrew the Frost Turtle and said:
“I heard that your battle servant is a Steel Crow. If you train it well, it will definitely surpass me in the future.”
Su Bai originally thought he was very strong.
However, after seeing all kinds of powerful battle servants in this camp, he could not help but hold back the impatience in his heart.
There are many talents in this world.
I may have a system, but I have to stay humble and try to improve myself!
Feeling the change in Su Bai’s mental state, McKay showed a look of admiration.
He smiled and said: “Young man, I can see the quality of a strong fighter in you.
“And that is, humility.”
Su Bai smiled and said: “Thank you.”
“Alright, alright, what’s with all this thanking here and there?”
Lacey snapped: “McKay, hurry up and settle the Contribution Points for this kid!”
McKay’s eyes brightened.
He rubbed his hands and said happily: “That’s great, there’s finally business.”
Then he looked at Lacey begrudgingly and said: “You’ve been slacking off quite a lot recently. Apart from the required number of crystals, how long has it been since you have new crystals?”
Lacey coughed awkwardly and quickly changed the subject.
“They’ll be here in two days. Let’s not talk about me anymore, and take a look at these first!”
With that, Lacey pulled out the backpack and set it on the table.
It was as if she had taken out some incredible treasure.
Iron crystals were not attractive to a Gold Beast Tamer like McKay.
But he knew Lacey’s personality.
This young lady loved to show off so much. For her to make such an action, she must have something to say.
Sure enough, Lacey spoke immediately.
She asked proudly: “Make a guess, McKay. How long did it take to collect these crystals?”
“Two days?”
McKay gave his answer.
This answer was already overestimating Su Bai.
After all, Su Bai was only an Iron Beast Tamer.
Even if he had some talent, how strong could he be?
Lacey looked even more pleased, showing her canine teeth.
She said smugly: “Stand firm. I’m afraid I’ll scare you if I tell you.”
Lacey paused to see an expectant look on McKay’s face before continuing.
“It only took half a day. To be exact, it took about four hours!
“And these are all Beast Crystals from Crystal Crocodiles!”
“F*ck! Are you serious?!”
Upon hearing Lacey’s words, McKay immediately stood up!
After getting Lacey’s confirmation, McKay asked a classic question: “Doesn’t your Steel Crow’s skills consume stamina?”
Su Bai had no choice but to repeat his previous answer: “My Steel Crow might have better stamina.”
McKay would never believe such an answer.
However, a battle servant’s skill was a Beast Tamer’s secret, so he did not ask further.
“I heard that you just graduated from high school. Young people are really getting stronger.”
McKay smiled wryly and continued.
“Fortunately, I was born 20 years earlier than you. I don’t know if I was lucky or unlucky to be born in the same era as you, though.”
After that, McKay fell silent, as if he was mourning for the other students.
Lacey looked even more pleased with herself.
The more outstanding Su Bai’s performance was, the more it proved that she had good judgment.
Back then, she was the one who insisted on sending Su Bai to the third team.
Because of this, they even set off overnight. After spending a lot of effort, they finally managed to get this slippery fellow into their team.
After counting, there were a total of 26 Top Iron crystals. The remaining 47 were Upper Iron crystals, totaling 443 Contribution Points.
“Impressive. I was already a top Bronze Beast Tamer when I joined the team. I might not even be able to earn that many Contribution Points in a day.”
McKay sighed again. Then he handed a crystal card to Su Bai and said: “No matter which hunting squad you are in, as long as you find the quartermaster, you can use the Contribution Points inside.”
“Thank you.”
Su Bai put away the crystal card and felt his neck tighten.
Lacey hooked her arms around his neck and smiled maliciously.
“Su Bai, you rich kid. Treat me to a drink.”
…
In the blink of an eye, half of the contribution points were gone.
In exchange for a large amount of hard liquor.
Su Bai sniffed it. It was at least 50 degrees.
Unlike the previous world, wine was a valuable resource in the Federation.
Few civilians could afford to drink.
In any case, Su Bai had never seen his father drink alcohol since he could remember things.
“Su Bai, you are too generous.”
Lacey laughed and said: “I was just joking. I didn’t expect you to really exchange for them!
“Hahaha, no heading to bed tonight if you’re not drunk!”
Looking at Lacey’s smiling face, Su Bai didn’t feel sorry for her.
In his eyes, Contribution Points were the same as federal dollars. They were both money.
And money was meant to be spent.
Furthermore, Lacey had indeed taken good care of him, so this could be considered as a thank-you gift for Lacey.
“McKay, let’s go drink together!”
Lacey appeared very excited as she pulled McKay away.
With a wry smile on his face, McKay had no choice but to follow Lacey out of the logistics store.
However, his work was very idle, so it was not a big deal to slack off.
Most importantly, with his strength as a Gold Beast Tamer, how could anyone dare to object?
Along the way, Lacey constantly called for members, and in the end, all the members that remained in the camp had gathered.
