Before he finished speaking, a large group of burly men rushed in and surrounded the boss, forming an impenetrable human wall!

The female manager cried:

"No...protect me too!"

She was terrified too!

The atmosphere at the scene instantly became tense and confrontational.

Timo instinctively shielded Alice, his eyes resolute.

No one is allowed to hurt his sister Alice!

Fortunately, his worries were unnecessary.

"What's going on? What's going on?!"

The big boss said, very displeased:

"Get out of my way!"

The female manager became anxious.

"But, boss, that's an abyss!"

"If you don't trust her, how can you not trust my friend?"

The boss rejected the female manager with a single sentence.

The bodyguards all left.

But the tense atmosphere did not diminish much.

The female manager continued to stare at Alice with wary eyes.

"I can't believe I didn't realize you came from the abyss last time..."

The abyssal aura emanating from Alice is so strong now that even she can sense it clearly!

"Boss, don't be nervous. She's one of my people, and she's very obedient."

Lu Xingyuan held Alice's little hand and began to explain:

"She would never hurt anyone casually."

"I trust you."

The big boss looked into Lu Xingyuan's eyes for three seconds, then nodded.

"However, you are indeed impressive, to have managed to subdue abyssal creatures and use them for your own purposes."

"She is my family; there's no question of subjugating her."

Lu Xingyuan corrected him.

"I'm sorry, it was my fault."

The boss admitted his mistake promptly, without any of the arrogance or haughtiness one might expect.

He continued:

"Abyssal creatures? Family? To be honest, I really wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes."

"I think you're amazing more and more now."

After observing Alice for a while, the female manager saw that Alice did indeed appear harmless, and her unease lessened somewhat.

Just as the boss said, Lu Xingyuan is truly a genius!

"However, the aura of the abyss emanating from her is far too obvious. If you take her around like this, you might just bring trouble upon yourself."

The boss frowned and gave the same opinion as Saipan.

"I'm currently working on a solution to this problem, and I've made some progress, but I'm still missing crucial materials."

"Oh, really?"

The big boss sat up straight, intrigued.

"What materials do you need? You can tell me, after all, you know I'm always ready to go to great lengths for my friends."

Lu Xingyuan's heart skipped a beat. Such a good thing?

He immediately told the boss about the four missing ingredients:

"Dark energy liquid mercury, living nerve bundles, scales of the Frost Dragon, and oil from the Abyss Whale."

The big boss snapped his fingers.

"Go check it out right away."

The female manager went off, huffing and puffing.

A short while later, he came back, huffing and puffing.

"Boss, among your assets, there happens to be about twenty units of grease from the Abyssal Whale, which you casually bought at an auction three years ago."

The big boss was very happy.

"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and get it! I'm so glad I could help my friend. It's really hard to see a friend in trouble and not be able to do anything about it."

The female manager had already sent someone to pick it up.

The big boss nodded in satisfaction, then said to Lu Xingyuan:

"Friend, please wait patiently, my men will bring the grease from the Abyssal Whale soon."

Thank you so much!

Lu Xingyuan was extremely excited.

The grease from those deep-sea whales is not easy to obtain.

It dwells in the depths of a bottomless trench, where the currents are like knives and the water pressure is like iron; ordinary ships are crushed to dust before they even get close.

And even if you do manage to sneak up to it, so what?

Its entire body is covered with iron armor accumulated over thousands of years, impervious to swords and cannons, and when it is enraged, a long roar can boil the seawater within a radius of several miles.

Extracting its oil is tantamount to suicide!

Now, the boss has come to his rescue in time, helping him solve this major problem. He no longer needs to try to go to the depths of that deep trench and fight the whales in the ocean.

Timo was just as overjoyed.

"That means we only need three out of the five ingredients!"

"Sister Alice, you'll soon be able to act like a normal person again and won't attract anyone's attention!"

Alice smiled genuinely as well.

"I'll also try to get you the remaining three materials."

The boss is a rat with a strong personality.

He has always been a loyal friend, willing to go to great lengths for his friends.

Although Lu Xingyuan was happy about the oil from the Abyssal Whale, the big boss himself was not satisfied.

hateful!

I attended so many auctions and collected so many great items, only to find out that my friend only needed one of them? How embarrassing would that be if word got out!

Despite Lu Xingyuan and his group repeatedly saying that it wasn't necessary, as the oil from the Abyssal Whale had already helped them a great deal, he insisted on doing so.

"In that case, I'll thank you in advance, Boss."

Lu Xingyuan quickly expressed his gratitude.

If the big boss is willing to help, that would be even better.

After all, he was incredibly wealthy and had a network of connections all over the world.

Just then, the grease from the Abyssal Whale was delivered.

It was placed in a sealed brocade box.

Only the big boss can open it.

The moment it was opened, what came into view were blocks of white jade wax, as solid as amber and as smooth as cream.

Its entire body gleams with a deep, dark blue light, as if it has sealed an entire starry sky within it.

If you get close, you can smell a very faint, cool fragrance, a scent unique to the deep sea.

【Oil from the Deep Sea Whale】

[Category: Extraordinary Creations]

[Level: 8]

[Note: The special oils contained in the cranial cavity and spinal fat layer of the deep sea whale are the "life-sustaining organs" that this giant beast uses to regulate the internal pressure when it dives to the bottom of the deep sea.]

This substance appears as a translucent golden liquid inside the whale, but upon condensation outside the body, it solidifies into a waxy block resembling mutton fat jade, emitting a faint cool fragrance and feeling warm and smooth to the touch. Its lubricating effect is unparalleled among similar substances, making it a veritable "liquid gold" among natural treasures.

Extremely rare—the essence condensed from the life force of a fully grown deep-sea whale after decades of deep-sea battles, can be extracted in a maximum of only 10 units. Only one in ten hunters survives, and those who obtain it are even rarer.

"My friend, all of this is for you."

Without hesitation, the big boss gave all twenty units of the Abyssal Whale's grease to Lu Xingyuan, knowing full well how precious it was, without even blinking an eye.

Lu Xingyuan solemnly accepted it, and at the same time, nodded emphatically to the big boss.

"I will always remember the boss's kindness!"

"You're too kind!"

The big boss said with a smile:

"This is practically worthless to me!"

"It's good that it's been put to good use by you!"

"As for the remaining materials, give me some more time, and I'll see if I can find them."
