The abdomen of that mutamwamp crocodile bulged violently, then rapidly deflated like a punctured balloon. Its metue body lost all strength and collapsed, Imp into the mud. Breath left it, but none cape back in

With the leader dead, the remaining mutant swamp crocodiles still had fight in them, but their formation had crum

Clive and Lioren seized the opening. With Elmer’s final defense backing them, they picked them off one by one. When the last mutant swamp crocodile fell unwillingly into the muck, the whole battlefield was a wreck, the stench of blood track in the air.

Clive, Elmer, and Lioren were utterly spent, their bodies bearing cuts and caked in mud. Elmer’s face was deathly pale. He leaned against a tree trunk, gasping for air in great heaves.

Clive’s chest rose and fell hard, his face just as drained of color. The eruption of power earlier had clearly taken toll.

Lioren lay to the side, licking a cut on his front paw left by a crocodile’s scales, his energy low and sluggish.

The three had burned through their crystal energy again in this brutal fight, but their eyes were all bright.

It was not only because they had survived by the skin of their teeth, but because of the spoils before them. the corpses of six whole Level-3 Pinnacle mutant swamp crocodiles.

After a short rest and recovering a bit of strength, they began processing the spoils.

After a short rest and recovering a bit of strength, they began processing the spoils.

What surprised them most was when Clive cut open the heads of the six mutant swamp crocodiles. He found five crysta cores the size of chicken eggs, glowing with a dark green luster and brimming with energy.

All were Level-3 Pinnacle. One even more dazzling crystal core, the size of a fist, Level-4, came out of the mutam crocodile leader’s head.

Not only that, while harvesting other materials, they found three more Level-3 crystal cores the size of pigeon eggs. stomach sacs of the crocodiles. It seemed they were leftovers from prey the crocodiles had swallowed not long age not digested.

“This is insane.” Elmer stared blankly at the crystal cores and materials laid out on the waterproof tarp

Lioren crouched beside them, his tail swaying unconsciously Clive wiped down his tools in silence at the spur lips softened a little.

Dora looked at the others, who were badly hurt, and showed no joy at the spoils. She said wor something so dangerous again.

“Remember this. From now on, in any fight, staying alive comes first. Gains come second. Never get dragged a out fight like today.”

This moved the others even more than if Dora had been happy. Because their ferale didnt care about the

Chef break.

Dora brought out the spring water mixed with honey to help everyone replenish their energy, then passed out nutrien drinks to restore their strength

“Clive, come with me to check out the exchange counter. Elmer and the kitten, stay here and rest,” she instructed

Elmer was compliant this time, not a peep out of him. He was honestly too tired to even get up. Lioren curled into a ball and huddled in the corner, his ears twitching. That counted as a reply.

At the exchange counter in the training zone main hall, Dora first turned in the ironfrond vine mission. She received 800 starcoins and a basic module exchange voucher.

Dora didn’t hesitate at all. She used the voucher straight away to exchange for the basic module and filled in the homestead address. The training hall’s general services department would arrange for it to be delivered straight to their home.

The government services were truly thoughtful. After all, the ones needing these construction materials were all matched females whose Spatial Realm levels weren’t high. They certainly couldn’t bring back a huge housing basic module

on their own.

After that, Dora pulled Clive over to study the material exchange screen in the main hall. Together, they figured our which supplies were of no use to them and could be traded in for starcoins.

As Clive watched Dora seriously sort through and manage these supplies, he felt a little dazed. At that moment. Dora seemed to glow with a halo, dazzling in his eyes, even more heart-stirring than when she had saved him back then.

Dora handled nearly all the sorting of supplies by comparing them against the exchange hall’s listings.

Clive simply watched in quiet admiration the whole time, not wanting to interrupt. He only offered a comment here and there when Dora came across a material category she couldn’t find.
