Chen Qiyue held the tube in his hand and looked at it. On the grayish-white pipe mouth was something that looked like a suction cup.

“Wang… Xinqiu told me that I only need to input 3 Hz of energy. If you exceed it, you need to pay more.”

Chen Qiyue felt that it was better to make things clear. If this machine sucked away all the energy of the Giant Ugly Fish, it would be over.

“Haha, 3 Hz is enough. If I really need more, I’ll give you 100,000 yuan for each additional Hz, okay? This is on account that you’re Xinqiu’s friend.”

The driver laughed and looked easy to talk to.

Chen Qiyue was slightly relieved and summoned the Giant Ugly Fish.

“Oh, it’s the Giant Ugly Fish. Not many people sign contracts with it. You’re not superficial, kid. That’s good.”

When the driver saw that Chen Qiyue’s Fantastic Beast was actually a Giant Ugly Fish, he was also a little surprised. “You don’t judge a Fantastic Beast by its appearance. Among the young people, you’re quite special.”

Chen Qiyue coughed lightly and did not say anything. He just held the tube in his hand and gestured around the Giant Ugly Fish, not knowing how to operate it.

“Just stick the suction cup to its skin. The machine will automatically extract its Fantastic Beast energy.”

The driver saw Chen Qiyue’s clumsiness and reminded him.

It seemed that he was really a high school student who had just obtained a Fantastic Beast. In that case, it would be best if the transaction could go smoothly.

Recently, things had been happening frequently. If he did too much, he might get caught.

The driver’s expression behind his sunglasses relaxed slightly.

Chen Qiyue nodded and placed the suction cup on the back of the Giant Ugly Fish before comforting it.

“Child, this tube will extract 3 Hz of your Fantastic Beast energy later. Don’t move.”

“Chou~” The Giant Ugly Fish answered obediently.

These instruments looked very familiar. They were very similar to the instruments used to test those eggs. They did not seem to be dangerous.

Moreover, the beast tamer had told her not to move, so the Giant Ugly Fish was very obedient.

The Beast Tamer would definitely not harm her.

The driver’s fingers quickly worked on the screen of the machine. Soon, the icon of a Giant Ugly Fish appeared on it, and the level was displayed below.

The driver heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the big word “B”.

Just in case, he checked the level of the Giant Ugly Fish.

After confirming that it was B-rank, he began to extract energy.

He reached out and pressed the green “Run” button. The tube began to hum.

A blue light began to flow from the suction cup into the tube.

A progress bar appeared on the screen, with a scale of 1, 2, 3… engraved on it.

When the progress bar reached 3 Hz, it stopped.

At the same time, a red spot appeared on the other side of the circular passageway.

When the driver turned around and saw the red origin, he shouted excitedly, “Success! Prepare to receive him!”

Chen Qiyue was stunned. The driver quickly ran to the car and took out an automatic inflatable cushion. He quickly unfolded it and placed it at the entrance of the passageway.

Then, he stared straight at the entrance of the passageway, at the red dot, waiting for the other party to come out of the passageway.

The red dot gradually enlarged and then grew larger still.

Chen Qiyue glanced at the Giant Ugly Fish and then at the Fantastic Beast energy that was stuck at 3 Hz on the screen. His hanging heart relaxed a little.

He ran his fingers over the phone in his pocket.

Should he text Wang Xinqiu now and ask her to transfer the money to him?

He was afraid that if the job succeeded, the driver would turn against him. Then, he would run away with the Giant Ugly Fish, and Wang Xinqiu’s money would be gone.

At the thought of this, Chen Qiyue’s expression suddenly froze. He seemed to have overlooked something previously.

He subconsciously glanced at the driver and quickly turned his body to avoid the driver’s gaze. He took out his phone and quickly sent a message to Wang Xinqiu.

“The mission is almost complete. Hurry up and transfer 200,000 yuan to my account. Otherwise, I’ll directly disconnect the Giant Ugly Fish!”

After sending the message, Chen Qiyue put his phone back into his pocket and looked at the exit leisurely.

The driver was so focused on the red dot that he did not notice Chen Qiyue’s small actions.

Wang Xinqiu, who had just received the message, was already gritting her teeth in hatred.

It was her uncle who was to be teleported. If the Giant Ugly Fish really cut off the supply of the Fantastic Beast energy, Chen Qiyue would probably not provide it again.

She had once wondered if she should directly take the money since Chen Qiyue had already gone to that place.

When the time came, she would just get her uncle to kill him.

But now…

Ding! Another message came. It was Chen Qiyue’s.

“If I don’t see the transfer in a minute, the power will be cut off.”

Wang Xinqiu gritted her teeth and transferred the 200,000 yuan angrily.

Chen Qiyue smiled when he saw the 200,000 yuan income on his phone.

It was worth it to take a risk for so much money.

The red dot at the exit of the tunnel was getting bigger and bigger. It was about to cover the entire entrance.

However, at this moment, the machine beside him started to scream crazily.

“The other party has encountered an energy attack. You need to increase the support energy. Do you want to extract energy?!”

The driver was stunned. Then, his pupils constricted behind his sunglasses and he was about to pounce on the machine.

A figure was even faster than him and instantly blocked the button.

The driver suddenly looked up and saw Chen Qiyue’s smiling face. “Pay up first!”

At this moment, the driver felt like he was about to have a heart attack.

Although he was a poor high school student, he was poorer than expected. At the critical moment, he still wanted money!

The eyes behind the sunglasses instantly narrowed.

Kill him?

No, the Double-Clawed Giant Cicada was still maintaining the passage.

This guy did it on purpose!

He deliberately chose this moment to ask for money!

F*ck, isn’t he afraid that I’ll kill him after this?

The driver weighed the pros and cons.

If he pounced on him now, this high school student would definitely not be his match.

But… his pupils suddenly constricted again.

He saw Chen Qiyue’s hand on the red button.

“You’re definitely not as fast as me. What would happen if I pressed this button?”

Chen Qiyue licked his lips. “I just want money. You know that.”

“Babe, if he doesn’t pay, break free of that suction cup and help me.”

“Chou~” The Giant Ugly Fish immediately replied. She realized that the current situation seemed a little strange.

F*ck, the driver was about to curse.

In a while, he would definitely tear this brat into pieces!

Chen Qiyue could have stopped doing that. He could have just accepted the fact that more of the Giant Ugly Fish’s Fantastic Beast energy was extracted. Then he would get more money.

However, such an outcome only existed if the other party still had a conscience.

The driver had always said that he was Wang Xinqiu’s classmate and he wouldn’t do anything to him.

However, he finally understood what he had felt was wrong.

This forced him to make such a choice…

The driver’s eyes flashed coldly under his sunglasses. He silently and quickly took out his phone and transferred 500,000 yuan to Chen Qiyue.
