Seeing that Xu Wa only pursed her lips and chuckled without any intention of saying anything else, he felt a little awkward.

He Jiong shook his head.

Then, he realized that the other party could not see him.

“It’s really inconvenient to lose your sight. If you can’t get better, it’ll be very hard on you,” he said with a sigh.

“At most, I’ll learn how to live like a blind person,” Xu Wa said optimistically. “I believe I’m not the only one who’s blind in this world. I can definitely learn the survival skills that they learned. Besides, I’ve wanted to learn it for a long time because I think it’s cool. Now, I finally have a legitimate reason and opportunity!”

!!
“No matter what, yoou can’t be as relaxed as ordinary people. At the very least, there’s a chance of recovering your sight after surgery,” He Jiong said.

Perhaps she could sense He Jiong’s good intentions.

Xu Wa finally heaved a sigh.

“Of course, I know that,” she said. “Who wouldn’t be willing to if they could recover? I just think that I shouldn’t destroy two families!”

Xu Wa raised her finger and continued in a serious tone, “It’s a few million. The person who had to compensate for the accident is innocent. My family has to risk losing their daughter. Why do you have to do this?”

“After all, the surgery didn’t affect me much. Whether I was paralyzed or died, it was over. It was the others who suffered.”

“If I’m blind, I can still take care of myself, but if I’m paralyzed, I can’t. My parents have to take care of me for the rest of my life. Who will take care of them when they’re old?”

She said a long string of words in one breath.

She was panting.

She slowed her breathing and her voice turned light again. “Forget it. I’m satisfied with what I have now.”

He Jiong looked at her haggard and weak face.

He could not bear it.

He gently patted the back of her hand and consoled her, “Don’t worry, there will always be a turn of events. The first time I went to the 300th floor of the World Tower, I had a chance to fully recover. If you haven’t reached the 300th floor yet, you can also recover your vision the first time you go.”

When Xu Wa was patted on the back of her hand, she shrank back like a frightened deer.

Only after hearing what he said did she understand what he wanted to say.

In fact, she had heard similar words of encouragement countless times in the past few days.

It was already very familiar.

She did not take it to heart.

In order to cover up the panic in her conditioned reflex, she replied casually, “Alright! I’ll take your blessings! I’ll treat you to a meal when I regain my vision! I know there’s a pickled…”

“There’s a restaurant that has delicious pickled fish, right?” He Jiong could not help but laugh when he heard the familiar lines. “Don’t worry. When you recover, I’ll not only have the fish, but also play with you to do all kinds of hobbies, such as escape room, haunted house, outdoor survival, mountain climbing, skydiving, and so on.”

Even Xu Wa could not help but laugh.

He Jiong saw that she was laughing so hard that her head was covered in blood.

He did not dare to stay any longer.

He turned around and left after saying goodbye to the middle-aged woman.

Not long after, he heard the sound of a doctor’s alarm in the distance.

He Jiong rubbed his nose in embarrassment.

He quickened his pace and left.

It was about Xu Wa’s illness.

He did not think too much about it.

Even though he was an expert that reached the 300th floor, the word ‘limit’ was not an exaggeration.

Up until now, he had only been to the 300th floor once.

He was just lucky to have encountered their own group’s elite team in the random match during the tower climb.

The captain of the elite team, who was temporarily lacking members, seemed to find the random matching too troublesome. It was easy to encounter people who were not strong but had high stats.

He might as well bring He Jiong, his family member, all the way up to the 300th floor and disband after everyone received their rewards.

This allowed He Jiong, who had always been stuck at around the 200th level, to become an expert at the 300th level.

After receiving the first Ascension Reward, he did not continue to climb the tower.

He was also not like the other experts who had continuously reached the 300th checkpoint to accumulate small unit rewards to strengthen themselves in order to climb higher in the future.

He stopped.

With the reward from the 300th level, he was like a fish in water between the 100th and 200th levels.

It was safe and profitable.

He could also act like a big shot in front of a rookie.

Contentment was bliss!

It was said that a man’s greed was like a snake swallowing an elephant. However, among the many tower climbers, He Jiong was also a unique person.

He was easily satisfied.

A little bit of money, a little bit of vanity… And life would be good.

He was simply a standard case of someone who had no ambition.

Therefore, He Jiong deeply knew that he was powerless to help Xu Wa with her illness.

He could not help in any way, including money.

However, this time, he once again felt the importance of money.

He had always spent as much as he earned and had never saved up.

What if in the future, he also encountered such a critical juncture where he urgently needed a large sum of money?

Did he have to borrow it again?

Who could he borrow such a figure from?

After the incident with Du Keke and Xu Wa, He Jiong had the desire to make money for the first time.

Therefore, he took the initiative to send a message to Wang Wen to ask if he had a chance to enter the tower.

He could do any hard and tiring work!

Wang Wen, who left the tower late at night on Sunday, saw this sentence when he replied to many messages.

It just so happened that Mo Ran felt that he could not continue fighting the insects and did not want to follow him on the next climb.

There was suddenly an empty position on the team.

However, He Jiong’s status was naturally not the same as Mo Ran’s.

It was as his message had said, he would do all the hard and tiring work.

This included things like serving tea, pouring water, cleaning up waste, and other things that Zhu Xingguo was originally in charge of.

After everyone entered the tower, other than the large-scale checkpoints in the wild or multiple levels, there were also many other places.

All the excrement produced on a certain floor would be collected and packed by He Jiong, and then handed over to Zhu Xingguo to be sold to the World Tower.

He Jiong had indeed done what he had said.

He worked hard without any complaints.

For this, Zhu Xingguo often sighed with emotion and said, “It’s much easier for me now.”

Seeing the tacit cooperation between the two, Wang Wen nodded in satisfaction.

After another six days of farming the bugs, He Jiong had a serious reaction, and they did not continue.

He did not even earn 10 trillion this week.

Everyone left the tower.

Finally, someone also fainted alongside the Skinny Boy.

He Jiong had never seen so much money in his entire life.

His status was that of the lowest labor cannon fodder, not an official team member.

Naturally, he did not have the right to enjoy the party allocation rules.

However, even if it was just a small fraction of what Wang Wen had revealed, the number could easily reach 100 million.

Only Wang Wen, who had been through 5 breakthroughs, could do this. He could convert the power of heaven and earth, and then use the Oath Scepter to make an oath.

Even the power creep of the World Tower could not control the rate of inflation.

Even so, the wealth of those who had followed Wang Wen into the tower skyrocketed.

At the very least, he did not need to worry about money.

According to the ratio, He Jiong received 107 million.

It was equivalent to the points awarded by an official team member when he sneezed.

When distributing the points, Zhu Xingguo specially observed He Jiong’s expression.

He found that the other party’s satisfaction seemed to come from the depths of his heart, even from his soul.

He nodded in relief.

No matter how much money he took, as long as no one questioned his Master’s decision and offended his master’s dignity, Zhu Xingguo would not care.

No one could understand He Jiong’s feelings.

Only God knew how low his expectations were for this trip.

He really just came with the mentality that it was good to have a mouthful of soup to drink.

He thought that if he could pay off the money he had borrowed from his friends outside the tower, it would be a great joy.

There was a total debt of about 7,000 points outside the tower.

In addition to the 13,000 he had left, a total of 20,000 points was the total cost of chasing Du Keke for a week.

It was not considered expensive, but it was not cheap.

He had thought that he would be able to earn 7,000 points to pay off his debt by doing more work on this trip to the tower. After all, he had food and drink and did not need to spend any money on the Academy.

The result…

It was not a whole number.

Just the 0.07 billion.

It would be enough to pay off all his debts by 100 or 1,000 times.

He was not stupid.

For the debt of 7,000 points, He Jiong added 50 percent to each of them as thanks for the other party’s generosity.

He Jiong was able to pay off all his debts in an instant.

He felt very satisfied.
