“What is it, Captain Liu?”

Su Xing walked up to Captain Liu and asked.

“You participated in the battle and killed two savage beasts. These two are for you.”

Captain Liu handed Su Xing two savage beast crystal cores.

Su Xing quickly waved his hand and refused.

“Captain Liu, what are you doing? I didn’t do anything. I assisted with the two kills. You shouldn’t give these to me.”

After Captain Liu heard this, he smiled and said, “You deserve them. Those soldiers also think that you should have them. After all, you were the one who finished them off.”

“That won’t do. It’s already good that they didn’t blame me for stealing their kills. I don’t deserve them!”

Su Xing still refused.

Who knew that this refusal would immediately make Captain Liu look a little angry.

“Can’t you just take it that our North City Army wants to be friends with you?”

When Su Xing heard Captain Liu say this, he also knew that he wouldn’t know what was good for him if he didn’t accept the crystal cores.

“Since Captain Liu said so, then I’ll accept it. Thank you.”

“You’re welcome. I’ll take my leave first. You and your classmates can continue chatting!”

After saying that, Captain Liu left.

Su Xing stood outside for a while before going in. He had to wait for his classmates to calm down.

Captain Liu didn’t walk back to the carriage where the soldiers were.

Instead, he walked to Zhao Jinbao’s carriage.

Captain Liu knocked on the door and called out softly, “Elder Zhao!”

“Come in.”

Zhao Jinbao’s voice sounded from inside the door.

“Did you give them to him?”

Zhao Jinbao looked at Captain Liu who walked in and asked softly.

“Yes, but Elder Zhao, this person might not return to our North City in the future. Is there a need for this?”

Captain Liu asked in puzzlement.

“Hahaha, you also said that this is an investment. There are risks involved in an investment, and two low-grade crystal cores are actually nothing.

“Let’s build a good relationship with him first. Even if he can’t return to North City, it’ll still be a good relationship in the future.

“Sooner or later, he’ll have to go to the battlefield. At that time, he might even save your life because of what you did today.”

Zhao Jinbao said slowly.

“I’ve learned my lesson.”

Captain Liu also understood when he heard that.

Even if he couldn’t pull Su Xing back to North City, he couldn’t let him have a bad impression of it either.

Captain Liu was a soldier. He didn’t know how to beat around the bush, but that didn’t mean that he was stupid.

He understood what was going on with just a few pointers. Captain Liu was also a member of the North City’s Beastmaster Association before he joined the army. His heart was set on the North City, so he naturally believed the words of the old man in front of him.

After Captain Liu left, the purple-clothed girl walked out from behind.

“Grandpa, why are you so fond of that Su Xing!”

The girl said somewhat unhappily.

“Are you jealous?”

Zhao Jinbao asked with a smile.

“You’ve never been so kind to me before.”

The girl said somewhat discontentedly.

“Do you know how a child from an ordinary family can reach level 20 in such a short time?”
