Chapter 171: Adding a New Contact
Three days later, Gu He had raised his Holy Water Energy to 12% and restored his personality integrity to 75%. His gigolo value was at 91% toward Tier 5.
He had farmed just about all he could out of the camp's children. They had gone from crowding around him begging to fly to practically hiding the moment he appeared. The kids all wanted to fly, but doing it too much grew boring. They wanted to play games and run around.
Life required novelty. Not only had the kids lost interest, but his own threshold had also increased.
Holy Water Energy could not be replenished simply through repetitive actions. The key was to stimulate a genuine feeling for life.
So that day, Gu He joined the children in their games of hide-and-seek and hopscotch. He wore himself out completely, yet his energy only went up another 2%.
He now valued Holy Water Energy more than money. This 14% could not be used carelessly.
Over the past few days, Gu He had also been studying the prompt on his Console: "Available New Contacts: 1".
Elizabeth's contact time was still on cooldown. He needed to test whether the two were linked—adding a new contact might extend Goose's cooldown time, or it might not.
The tribal convoy had stopped for a few days and was preparing to set off further north again. He decided to give it a try while he was still free. Besides, with his personality integrity low, he was feeling a bit bolder.
