Chapter 481 The Truth About Steve’s Defeat

“Of course he’s strong.”

Finis

A middle–aged man leaned back in his chair and said proudly, “Put it this way: who at our ba isn’t strong?”

The others all burst out laughing.

They had absolute confidence in everyone at the base.

Stuart fell silent for a moment, then said, “At Heningford Base, Steve sparred with that woma once, and she gave him three free moves.”

“That’s ridiculously arrogant. And Steve actually accepted a three–move head start?”

Stuart continued, “But do you know what happened next?”

“Don’t tell me Steve lost.”

“He did.”

Ignoring their shocked expressions, Stuart said, “That woman is a lightning ability user, while Steve is an earth ability user. On paper, Steve should’ve had the advantage.

“But even after she gave Steve three free moves, he still lost, and she took him down in a single

move.

“And there’s more.”

Stuart paused just long enough to leave everyone hanging. “She didn’t use her ability.”

“She didn’t use her ability?”

“You’ve got to be kidding!”

“Then how did Steve lose if she didn’t use her ability?”

“And Steve is an earth ability user. Earth ability users are among the toughest elemental users out there!”

No one believed him.

The story sounded impossible.

He was claiming that a lightning ability user had beaten a defense–focused earth ability user

with raw physical strength alone, without using her ability, and in a single move.

It sounded like a joke.

None of it made any sense.

“Stuart Richardson, do we look like idiots?”

A young woman with a ponytail said, “You don’t seriously expect us to believe something thi ridiculous, do you?”

“I’m not making it up.”

Stuart said seriously, “That woman has something called the Purification Pill. It purges impurities from the body and can greatly improve a person’s physical condition. It co one of the biggest problems elemental users face–weak bodies.”

A ripple of shock went through the room.

“She’s also the person you asked me to find–the one with the armored vehicles.”

The people from Northreach Base looked at one another.

The story sounded absurd, but Stuart didn’t look like he was joking.

Besides, no one would joke about something this important.

“Is that what she told you?”

Jilliane asked.

“She didn’t just tell us.”

Stuart said, “Steve took one himself, and it worked!”

Everyone leaned in.

Stuart explained, “She won’t join us, period. She says she belongs to Redwood Military Base in Klam. Since she already has a base, we can’t exactly argue with that.

“But this was too important not to report, so Steve and I did everything we could to get her here. The problem is, she’s unpredictable and doesn’t respond to flattery or pressure. She refused to come without her friends, so in the end, we had to agree.”

The whole room fell silent.

Everyone needed a moment to process what he’d said.

“Then this Purification Pill…”

Someone finally asked.

Stuart knew what he was asking. “She came here to discuss a partnership with us.”

“One Purification Pill costs five Level 4 zombie crystal cores.”

“Zombie crystal cores?”

Someone asked in confusion, “What does she want those for?”

Stuart shook his head. “She wouldn’t say, but I can’t blame her. I
