Chapter 242: Chapter 241 Pre-Exam Travel

However, by the third time, Qu Tong limited each person to only 10 tubes.

Then Qu Tong received several private messages of apology.

Waves within waves: "Sis, I was wrong. I’ll change it to a good review, can you not limit purchases please?"

Tangtang: "No."

Waves within waves replied with a crying emoji.

Qu Tong treated the private messages from the others similarly.

The next day, Qu Tong noticed that the comments under the link had been deleted and replaced with positive reviews, praising them as "good value for money" and "super worth it".

Gradually, the comments turned into "This batch tastes much better than the last."

Qu Tong felt the same.

After drinking the biochemical weapon for more than a week, her sense of taste was almost compromised, but at last, she saw some results.

Qu Tong returned to Capital Star ahead of time, not aware of how several Mercenary Corps, who both loved and hated their Nutrient Solution supplier, were grieving.

In hopes of luring the vendor back, they used their limited cultural proficiency to write several lengthy rave reviews.

But Qu Tong was unaware of these.

Soon after returning to school, Qu Tong received a message from Rong Chengjue.

He asked if she could sell him two High-grade Spirit Power Stabilizing Potions, offering to pay double the price.

Qu Tong thought it wasn’t a bad idea; double the price was still reasonable, and she had plenty of potions in stock.

Rong Chengjue wanted to meet at the Underground Fighting Arena.

When Rong Chengjue asked her to wait a bit upon arrival, Qu Tong took the opportunity to watch the ongoing matches.

One of the stages was surrounded by a large crowd because the Mecha on it was an SSS-rank, with the familiar number 45.

Listening to the surrounding discussions, Qu Tong learned that if number 45 won this match, it would be his 50th victory in a row.

Last time, number 45 had also cleared the stage.

It didn’t take long for Qu Tong to learn why.

With a burst of cheers, the match ended, and the isolation shield obscured the audience’s view from the stage.

Qu Tong received a message on her neuro-computer and went to the room designated by Rong Chengjue, just in time to catch Rong Chengjue emerging from the SSS-rank Mecha.

His blond hair was smoothly draped down, with sweat dripping along his jaw, and his face had a touch of flush due to exercise, making him look less pathologically pale.

Just like last time, Rong Chengjue exchanged 700,000 points for an Advanced Mind Stabilizing Potion.

Qu Tong waited for Rong Chengjue’s breathing to steady before passing him the two potions, "Just pay me the shop’s price."

Rong Chengjue took them, and before Qu Tong could ask, he spoke up.

"The person who insulted you was killed by me, just a matter of convenience, no need to thank me."

Rong Chengjue’s tone was light and airy, imbued with an innate cold-bloodedness and ruthlessness, as if killing someone was an everyday occurrence for him.

Qu Tong looked at Rong Chengjue with a mixture of feelings. Indeed, he himself had said he’d killed many people.

"I didn’t plan to kill him," Qu Tong stated calmly.

She had only intended to make him suffer a bit, maybe break his legs, or possibly cut out his tongue.

With enough money, it was still possible to save him.

Rong Chengjue looked at Qu Tong with a bloodthirsty amusement, "What can be done about it? He’s already dead."

Qu Tong, of course, hadn’t come to exact vengeance but merely to confirm her guess.

Rong Chengjue lazily sat down and lit a cigarette.

Qu Tong subconsciously frowned slightly and rose to leave.

Only after the silver figure disappeared at the door did Rong Chengjue stare at the burning tip of his cigarette for a moment, then pinched it out and threw it in the trash can.

As the end of the semester approached, the school unexpectedly had a holiday, and with the weekend added, it was a five-day vacation, ostensibly for pre-exam relaxation.

Fei Wenxing had already been planning in the group chat how to spend it.

Cheng Yao’s proposal eventually gained widespread approval.

They decided on a spontaneous trip, destination: Bibo Star.

Qu Tong spent two days sorting out the potion and farm matters, and on the third day, she hopped on a red spacecraft from Fei Wenxing to relax.

Qu Tong looked at her account balance steadily increasing and felt very content.

The number of potions for this month had increased by 10 from the previous month, and both the Palace Commander and her online fans were looking forward to Miss Ali’s family being able to catch up with the volume of the Alchemist Association in a year.

Liang Ge’s black market was thriving well, planning to open a branch on a third-tier planet after just two or three months.

The Alchemist Association had recently taken quite a hit and was unusually quiet for a while.

It was said that the Alchemist Association wanted to invest in a planet to grow energy herbs but, due to the recent turmoil, found themselves seriously short on funds. They borrowed several billion from the Agricultural and Forestry Academy.

In the end, they didn’t get the planet, and after the money changed hands, they had to pay back with an additional interest of more than twenty million.

The entire upper echelons of the Alchemist Association were all upset about it.

All this was said by the niece of Fei Wenxing’s great aunt’s daughter’s second uncle’s cousin’s good sister.

The conversation shifted back to Bibo Star.

Fei Wenxing had already looked up travel tips online and was eagerly sharing them with everyone.

"I heard that Bibo Star is a tourist hotspot, and the ocean there is barely polluted, with many types of seafood reaching edible standards."

"Also, they have a lot of loquats, and we definitely have to try them first when we get there."

...

The spacecraft traveled for a day and arrived at Bibo Star in the evening.

After a night’s rest, the next morning, the two excited Fei Wenxing and Cheng Yao urged everyone to set off early.

The five of them rented a hovercar, paid an admission fee of over ten thousand each, and went inside.

Because the entrance fee and consumption level of Bibo Star were high, the number of visitors was not very large.

Fei Wenxing was piloting the vehicle and even persuaded Qu Tong to do a live stream.

"Later when we go to buy seafood, seasonings, and utensils, then cook it ourselves, I bet a lot of people will tune in to watch," Song Ke thought Fei Wenxing’s suggestion was pretty good.

"Yes, yes, and with such beautiful scenery, plus three great beauties, I can already imagine the day I become a sensation," Cheng Yao said, clearly smitten.

Rong Yueqing, hearing that she would be on camera, blushed but still spoke softly, "I have no objections."

Seeing that everyone agreed, Qu Tong didn’t have much to say.

She opened her live broadcast account and took out the live streaming orb.

As soon as the live broadcast started, Fei Wenxing and Cheng Yao, the two conspicuous ones, greeted the audience actively and even delivered the opening remarks.

Qu Tong glanced at the live broadcast room, pleased with the response. Her broadcasts had always lacked interaction, but with Fei Wenxing and Cheng Yao there, that wasn’t an issue.

The live streaming orb flew out of the hovercar automatically in response to voice recognition, capturing some scenery and receiving unanimous praise from the viewers.

As they drove in the hovercar, they spotted a man eating loquats, holding a golden string of them in his hand.

Fei Wenxing slammed on the brakes and stopped the hovercar, rolling down the window to greet:

"Hey, bro! Where did you pick those loquats?"

The man, friendly, pointed in the direction he came from: "Over there."

Fei Wenxing then asked, "How much per pound?"

The man spat out a loquat seed: "Didn’t pay for them."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Yao leaned out from the front passenger seat: "Didn’t pay for them?"

Excitement sparkled in Cheng Yao’s eyes: "Can we pick them ourselves?"

"Mhm."

The man nodded.

"Cool, thanks a lot," Cheng Yao politely thanked him.

The man acknowledged with a reply, peeled another loquat and popped it in his mouth, and sauntered away leisurely, his heels clicking rhythmically.

Cheng Yao pulled back into the passenger seat, urging Fei Wenxing to drive in the direction the man had pointed.
