Chapter 71: Thanks to QQ Yue babies for the additional update with 40 monthly tickets.
"He doesn’t need a bracelet. Can he really stay in Mist West?" Xiao Jinsheng asked Li from the other car.
After all, the information she had received stated that the poisonous fog in Mist West could reduce people to white bones.
This was why Task Takers required females to collect missions from the terminal and obtain bracelets.
"He’s Ten Stars, so he can naturally resist part of the poisonous fog," Li explained. "Apart from the bracelet, there are other items that can counteract the fog."
"Deep-sea Mermaid Pearls, Demon Blood Gems from Demon Territory," Li answered, tossing a blood-red gem the size of a pigeon egg in his hand.
Xiao Jinsheng glanced at it—this was precisely what Li had gifted her before, along with a thousand crates of them.
She then understood why Li’s Demon Territory and Shi Xie’s deep sea, both blanketed by the poisonous fog of Mist West, could still sustain life.
"You mentioned earlier that Shi Xie snatched an island with gem mines from you. Could it be those gems that resist the poisonous fog?" Xiao Jinsheng suddenly realized.
"Gems resist the fog faster than a bracelet’s durability value depletes," Li nodded. "That island’s gem mine can sustain Demon Territory for half a year."
"I only took a few flowers from him, and that’s already considered merciful," Li sneered coldly.
When Xiao Jinsheng asked if the island could still be reclaimed, she learned that Shi Xie had blown up the entire island and dragged all the minerals into the deep sea to hide them. She fell silent.
