"You've become Caterine's Lord?" Hai Ruo looked at Chen Mo in surprise.
She wasn't familiar with other human territories, but she knew about Caterine. Back then, the Seafolk had landed near Caterine's territory and even fought with the Lord of Caterine.
"That's right. If you're willing, you can stay in Caterine for a while." Chen Mo didn't say much and let Hai Ruo decide for herself.
"Sister, sister." Hai Weila looked at Hai Ruo.
Hai Ruo glanced at Hai Weila and nodded, "Caterine is a good place to hide. We're willing."
"That's good. Also, don't tell anyone that you're from the Seafolk. The daughter of the previous Lord is now working for me." Chen Mo reminded them.
Enoch's father had died at the hands of the Seafolk. If Hai Ruo and Hai Weila revealed their identities, it would be a big problem.
"Understood." Hai Ruo nodded.
Perhaps the entire Caterine wouldn't welcome the Seafolk. If possible, Hai Ruo didn't want to stay in Caterine. However, for Hai Weila, she had no better place to go.
If an NPC wanted to become a territory's resident, they had to register with the relevant person in the territory. As the Lord, Chen Mo had the authority to do so.
Hai Ruo and Hai Weila didn't have any status in the Seafolk, so Chen Mo invited them to become Caterine's residents without much effort.
Then, the two set sail and went to Caterine by sea. Chen Mo returned to Eastsea City alone. He still had things to do there.
In the study of the City Lord's residence, Joanna had been waiting for Chen Mo for a long time. When she saw Chen Mo return, she asked, "What's your relationship with that woman? You're willing to spend so much effort to help her."
"I need her help with something. I can't do without restoring her strength."
Of course, Chen Mo wouldn't reveal his relationship with Hai Ruo. However, when he thought about it, there wasn't any special relationship between the two. He wasn't wrong.
"Is that so?
I noticed that the way the Sea Clan looked down on you was very different. "Joanna sneered.
"What's wrong? Are you jealous?" Chen Mo glanced at Joanna and chuckled as he walked towards her.
"Hmph!
Jealous?
Stop daydreaming! "Qiao Anna snorted.
However, when she noticed that the relationship between Chen Mo and Hai Weila was not ordinary, she was indeed a little worried.
She was Chen Mo's slave, and she had a grudge against Hai Ruo. If Hai Weila had a good relationship with Chen Mo, it would not be a good thing for her.
"Hehe, Hai Ruo Ou wanted his sister to marry me, but I didn't agree because of you." Chen Mo came over and hugged Joanna, and said with a smile.
Joanna was his slave, but there was no rule that said that slaves couldn't have a good impression of him. Now that there was an opportunity, Chen Mo certainly wouldn't miss it. If he could increase Joanna's good impression of him, it would be more convenient for him to do things in the future.
After that, he might need Joanna's help to help Hai Ruo Ou take back the Heaven-sea City.
"That little princess of the Sea Clan will marry you?
Hmph, who would believe that? "
After being hugged by Chen Mo, Joanna struggled symbolically for a while, but she was too lazy to move anymore. She knew that she couldn't escape.
As for Chen Mo's words, she didn't believe them at all.
"Hai Ruo Ou is no longer a member of the Sea Clan, and Hai Weila was also driven out of the Sea Clan. Now the Heaven-sea City is under the control of Leopold, whom we met last time.
In order to help them escape, I put in a lot of effort. Nothing is impossible.
Not many people in the Human Clan know about this, so you can't tell others. "
After explaining the situation of Hai Ruo Ou and her sister, Chen Mo reminded Joanna to keep it a secret.
"Really?"
Joanna was puzzled, but when she thought of the situation when she met Leopold a few days ago, she felt that Chen Mo might be telling the truth.
"Whether it's true or not, you will know in the future. What's the benefit of lying to you about this?"
Joanna thought about it and agreed. Could it be that what this guy said was true? Was he not willing to marry the little princess of the Sea Clan because of her?
Impossible!
When she thought of what this guy did to her before, Joanna knew that this guy must be talking nonsense.
Damn, this woman is really not easy to fool!
Chen Mo looked at Joanna and knew that he probably didn't manage to get her to like him.
Without talking nonsense with Joanna, Chen Mo asked about the matter at hand, "What about the materials I asked you to help me collect?"
"Most of the materials have been collected, but there is one material, the Red Snake King's Gallbladder, that can't be found in Donghai City.
The Red Snake King's Gallbladder is a rare monster outside the Red Sand City. I'm afraid that it can only be found in the Red Sand City. "When it came to business, Joanna quickly replied.
"Okay, give me all the materials. I will go to the Red Sand City to collect the Red Snake King's Gallbladder."
Chen Mo nodded. When he first saw the Red Snake King's Gallbladder, he already had this premonition.
The Red Snake King's Gallbladder was a wild mini-boss. It was said that it only respawned once every three days, and the items it dropped were different every time. The Red Snake King's Gallbladder didn't drop every time. Now that the Red Snake King's Gallbladder had only been killed a few times, even if it dropped, it would be in very small quantities.
However, the Red Snake King's Gallbladder was also a highly toxic material. If Chen Mo wanted to forge a Dark Gold Poison Dagger, the Red Snake King's Gallbladder was an essential material.
The Red Snake King's Gallbladder was only slightly lower in grade than the Hypertoxic Toad's Tongue.
Joanna had already prepared the materials. After Chen Mo said that, she handed the materials to Chen Mo one by one. At the same time, she also returned the remaining hundred over gold coins to Chen Mo.
Chen Mo knew that Joanna returned the remaining money to him so readily. Most likely, the two of them had made a fortune on Whale Island. These hundred over gold coins were dispensable to Joanna.
"Alright, all the equipment on Whale Island is in your hands. Have you estimated their value?"
Chen Mo needed a large amount of gold coins to develop, so he didn't stand on ceremony with Joanna. Instead, he wanted to split the loot with her.
"There are a total of thirty-six pieces of equipment. In addition to the materials and gold coins, the total value should be more than ten thousand gold coins. However, it's hard to estimate how much it's worth. When adventurers like you reach a certain level, there will be a shortage of equipment, so the value should be higher."
Joanna's expression became excited at the mention of the equipment and items.
Of course, she had already estimated the value of the equipment and items she had obtained on Whale Island in the past three days.
After estimating, she realized that she would have an income of at least five thousand gold coins. She forced herself to calm down for a long time.
Worth more than ten thousand gold coins!
In that case, she would have an income of at least five thousand gold coins on Whale Island this time?
Chen Mo couldn't help but feel slightly excited when he heard that.
His current wealth was only ten thousand gold coins. With this additional sum of money, he would be able to develop Katrina much faster. He wouldn't have to worry too much.
"Very good. Now, let's split the loot according to our agreement!"
Although Joanna was his slave, Chen Mo wasn't willing to leave such a large sum of money with Joanna. It was better to get it first.
"Alright, everything is here. What do you want?"
Joanna waved her hand, and dozens of pieces of equipment and items were placed on the ground one by one.
Chen Mo quickly browsed through them.
"Those pirates are really rich!"
Looking at the equipment, Chen Mo realized that there were over thirty pieces of equipment, all of which were purple in color.
A knight's armor that added five thousand HP!
A priest's staff that added twenty percent to healing effects!
A summoner's ring that added fifteen percent to summoned beasts' attack power!
An assassin's shoes that added thirty percent to stealth movement speed!
… …
The equipment's level was between Level 50 and 55. Chen Mo discovered that many of the equipment's attributes were quite good. The value of these equipment was definitely much higher than Joanna's estimate. At least twelve thousand gold coins was definitely not less!
However, these equipment couldn't be exchanged for gold coins for the time being. Currently, the highest level of players was only Level 45. There was still a long way to go before Level 50 and 55.
Therefore, when the two of them began to split the loot, Chen Mo didn't just pick the Level 55 equipment. Instead, he picked some of the Level 50 and popular Purple equipment according to their attributes.
Apart from the equipment, Chen Mo picked half of the loot, which amounted to about five hundred gold coins. He also took six inherent crystals.
Joanna had obtained six inherent crystals from the treasure chest in the pirate's treasury. These six inherent crystals were only valued at three hundred gold coins by Joanna. Of course, Chen Mo didn't stand on ceremony and took them. He just happened to be lacking inherent crystals.
In the end, Chen Mo took seventeen pieces of equipment, while Joanna took nineteen. There would be some difference between the two, but it wouldn't be too big.
"With this money, you don't have to worry about the Ao Gu Family making things difficult for you."
Looking at the excited Joanna, Chen Mo asked meaningfully.
"Oh, I don't have to worry about it for the time being." Joanna replied with satisfaction.
With such a large sum of money, even if she went against the Ao Gu Family, she could still support them for a long time.
"Don't think about messing around!
Before these things become gold coins, they can't go against the Ao Gu Family!
Moreover, you promised me that you would kill Augu Parker!
Even if I have gold coins, I don't want to have a falling out with the Ao Gu Family. That would waste a lot of gold coins! "
Joanna then looked at Chen Mo with vigilance.
Damn, this woman could become the Eastsea City's City Lord. She really isn't easy to fool!
Chen Mo sighed. It would be impossible for him to take advantage of Joanna today.
However, this woman seemed to be getting more and more arrogant. He couldn't let her forget her identity as a slave!
Next, in the study, Chen Mo ignored Joanna's resistance and stripped her naked. Using her body and snow-white thighs, he vulgarly vented for a while before leaving the ashamed and angry Joanna.
Of course, before leaving, Chen Mo didn't forget to tell Joanna to continue looking for someone with dagger skills. This time, he went to Whale Island, but he didn't find Loki.
After finishing his instructions, Chen Mo rushed to Scarlet Sand City.
Before finding all the materials, he couldn't start forging weapons. Although the other materials were ready, he had to get the Scarlet Snake King's Gallbladder first before returning to Storm City to find Ha Jin.
