When disaster struck, I became a big shot surviving in the ocean. Chapter 97: It’s Not a Big Problem for You

These Gem Hunters had already been waiting for so ti and, seeing Chen Qing approaching, they imdiately led her to a tavern they had recently frequented.

From beginning to end, Chen Qing never ntioned what she wanted, and they did not ntion what they had; an unexpectedly perfect understanding between the two parties.

The quaint tavern had private rooms, where Chen Qing paid the owner for so common wines and accompanying dishes.

Unexpectedly, the owner of this tavern was a Dragon Country survivor.

Looking at the environnt inside the tavern and the nu, one could tell right away; it was very distinctive.

Survivors from Dragon Country really have an amazing ability to adapt and blend into their surroundings.

"We need one thousand Treasure Fish."

"You also need to help us custom-design chanical Prosthetics, and the quality cannot be lower than Level D."

After the waiter brought the wine and dishes and closed the door on his way out, the five silent Gem Hunters finally spoke up and stated their conditions.

"This is one part of our paynt."

One of the Gem Hunters pushed a box towards Chen Qing with her only remaining arm.

"Once you help us assemble the chanical Prosthetics, we will give you a map of the distribution of Treasure Fish in the Jade Islands area, which we will hand over to you at the sa ti."

"Wind Shadow Jade, Beautiful Purple, Peach Spring Feather, Sky Grape at, ... these are all recorded on the map of Treasure Fish distribution."

"Level D..."

Chen Qing pondered, she had not made such low-level chanical Creations recently.

The Gem Hunters needed her to custom-design, which ant that she needed to create her own blueprints.

This was the first ti for Chen Qing, but she thought it wouldn’t be difficult.

In her mind, Chen Qing already had an idea; however, the nas of the Treasure Fish around the Jade Islands seed a bit more pleasant than those around Sapphire Island.

Her silence made these Gem Hunters worry that their demands had been too much.

They were just about to speak up and negotiate further, after all, aside from a newcor chanic like Chen Qing, they simply could not find anyone to assemble the chanical Prosthetics for them.

As a once experienced Gem Hunter team, they might not have been top-notch Gem Hunters, but they were at least among the upper tier.

If only they hadn’t offended soone from the chanical Association... Sigh.

They had no intention of informing Chen Qing about this matter; if they did, even this rookie chanic would likely be frightened away.

But they did offer sufficient reward.

"It’s possible."

Chen Qing agreed straightforwardly; the Gem Hunters’ offer was indeed made in good faith.

[Level C · Moonlight Jade (Purple): Can be worn or processed into jewelry or inlay. When night falls, it will automatically absorb the essence of moonlight, and wearing it long-term on the body will refine the wearer’s Body, enhancing related Attributes.]

Not bad at all.

Chen Qing temporarily had no plans to use Extraordinary Points to enhance her Body Attributes, so these external enhancents were indispensable.

"Co find tomorrow night."

Chen Qing glanced at the ti; she hadn’t studied the relevant materials yet and needed to check so books.

However, knowledge related to chanics was largely interconnected, and not difficult to learn.

Not to ntion, Chen Qing’s assembled Blast Battle Rabbit included so relevant knowledge.

"Isn’t today possible?"

The Gem Hunters frowned upon hearing Chen Qing’s response.

If this chanic went back to verify...

"Not possible."

Chen Qing glanced at them, well aware there must be sothing fishy going on.

But whatever it was, Chen Qing certainly wasn’t afraid.

Having just entered the ga, she dared to take on the pirates and hunters of the Deep Blue Sea head-on; now, was she supposed to fear these Gem Hunters who didn’t seem to have fared very well?

Although it might sound harsh, it was the truth.

If they had stirred up trouble big enough, they wouldn’t be able to sit in front of her now, showing her the Moonlight Jade.

If no other Gem Hunters could co up with a better gemstone distribution map, Chen Qing would agree to their terms.

High returns naturally warranted her taking certain risks.

Chen Qing did not give them the chance to argue, nor did they have the right to refuse.

She was the only chanic they had co into contact with who could solve their problems and who was unaware of the inside story.

After picking up the tab, Chen Qing strolled around Jade Island to get familiar with the terrain.

There were quite a few survivors on Jade Island, not just from Dragon Country but also cherry blossoms, Koreans, Russians, etc.

They were distinguishable at a glance.

With so materials purchased from the market, Chen Qing returned to her ship to start researching and even went out of her way to consult Xia Li and Brown.

chanical Prosthetics are, strictly speaking, a branch of chanical armants, not limited to prosthetics alone but also the exoskeleton that Chen Qing had previously used.

It greatly enhances a chanic’s combat ability.

The leg exoskeleton and chanical arm she abandoned were gathering dust in a corner of her warehouse, but now Chen Qing had taken them out again to study.

Upon receiving Chen Qing’s ssage, Xia Li, without asking anything, sent Chen Qing a pile of books.

Brown, on the other hand, couldn’t help but ask why she suddenly started researching this.

He thought Chen Qing would follow the path of a Battlefield chanic but was surprised she took up the arms School.

Chen Qing did not hide anything and explained the situation to Brown.

Brown, being the island chanic of Jade Island and a native of Jade Island, was familiar with the place.

[Brown: Those Gem Hunters, they had previously offended Er Gu of the chanical Association and were slapped with an exile decree.]

[Brown: I didn’t expect them to turn to you, but this shouldn’t be a big problem for you.]

[Brown: You could squeeze them a bit. They’re old Hunters without much money, but as for other things... you decide.]

Brown knew rather a lot about the inside story and even coached Chen Qing on how to extort those Gem Hunters.

Egul, also a School chanic, was always narrow-minded and vengeful. The Gem Hunters had unintentionally offended him, and he issued an industry-wide exile order against them, forbidding any chanic from accepting their tasks.

Brown knew about this incident because it occurred on Jade Island.

School chanics, of course, are not afraid of Egul, but those Gem Hunters did not have anything worth the School chanics’ intervention.

Without a benefit, why would School chanics antagonize a chanic of the sa level over them?

chanics below the School would naturally not dare to offend Egul; in fact, no chanic dared to help them.

But for Chen Qing, this was truly not an issue.

Chen Qing had co this far without any involvent from the chanical Association, and she wouldn’t need it in the future either; moreover, the chanical Association might yet co asking for her help soday.

In addition, because of the defense structures, Chen Qing had directly befriended a host of School chanics.

If Egul decided to target Chen Qing, he wouldn’t be able to get to her because the matter would be resolved before it reached her.

Even if it did reach Chen Qing, was she supposed to fear a chanic who would only ever be a School chanic in his life?

Chen Qing had never feared Lei Guang and Shang Jia.
