Only I can make them stronger

It's Joey.

To be exact, it was something she left for herself before she left.

It turned out to be a flawed instrument!

"Oh my god..." Xia Ye took a breath after reading the description of the new flaw-solving device.

In Joey's file, the column for the Flawed Instrument clearly indicated that this gift came from Joey, which meant that she most likely had abilities in the same direction.

No wonder Joey looked like nothing happened no matter how badly he was injured in the previous battle.

In Xia Ye's opinion, this level of ability is already abnormal enough, and he doesn't even dare to imagine how terrifying Joey as the original body is.

I'm afraid it's the most powerful of the weak, a monster that might not die even if thrown into lava.

In addition, this also completely proved one thing to Xia Ye -

The instrument of flaws does come from a mythical species.

To be precise, it is a mythical species.

To some extent, the Vessel of Flaws also reveals the true nature of the abilities of the mythical species to which it belongs.

In this way, many things become intriguing.

As a mythical item, it can be connected to one's own abilities and generate new abilities that are unique to it.

This may indicate that the relationship between mythical species and true ability users is different from that between aliens and true ability users in terms of origin.

At least Xia Ye has not yet mastered any abilities related to mutant factors.

In addition, the Hidden God who also brought him the second Flawed Artifact might not be as mysterious as he imagined.

After all, it is a creature like Phoenix and Joey.

Although its individual form and abilities have far exceeded the scope of living creatures, "living creature" and "god" are two completely different concepts to Xia Ye.

This made Xia Ye, who felt that he would have a battle with the God of Concealment sooner or later, feel much more at ease.

"But the Flawed Principle Vessel will be sensitive to the mythical species it originally belonged to... I just hope Joey can listen to my last words to her and stop causing trouble for my beloved wives for the time being..."

Thinking of this, Xia Ye sighed, turned off the system, hugged the little marshmallow in his arms tighter, and fell into a deep sleep.

…………

At noon the next day, the two people in bed were awakened by a knock on the door.

Considering how much trouble the two of them had gone through last night, Jinniel had specially reserved a whole morning for them to rest.

But the two people who were awakened still hurriedly changed their clothes and opened the door half a day later.

"Hey! Xia Ye! You seem to be more energetic now! Haha!"

Outside the door, Karen's greeting sounded particularly deliberate.

Apart from her, Jinelle's eyes swept back and forth between the two of them without any concealment, while Fiti avoided looking at Xia Ye and Anke with a slightly unnatural expression.

"Ha... haha, it will be fine after a good night's sleep, it's no big deal..." Seeing this awkward situation, how could Xia Ye not see that they already knew what happened last night.

Fortunately, Karen was not stupid enough to expose it directly, otherwise An would have been so ashamed that he would have left Hill Continent on a chainsaw.

"Let's go have lunch first and chat while we eat." Seeing that everyone had fallen silent, Jinelle curled her lips helplessly and suggested.

"Okay!" "I've been hungry for a long time!" Xia Ye and Karen responded in succession.

Soon, they found a restaurant in the watch city and ordered some local specialties.

"So what on earth did you do, and what about that researcher?"

After dinner, Karen started to talk non-stop again, asking Xia Ye:

"I'm telling you, An Ke was going crazy when you were alone at the Shadow Claw contact point, and..."

But halfway through her speech, she suddenly stopped talking and subconsciously glanced at Fitty and Anke.

"What else?" Xia Ye swallowed a piece of steak and asked puzzledly.

"Nothing... nothing, I just bit my tongue."

"?"

Xia Ye frowned slightly and glanced at Fiti who remained silent and Anke who looked a little unnatural.

This doesn't look like a big deal.

41. Two cute little ones with a special bond

"Anke, did something happen between you and Fiti?"

After returning to the room, Xia Ye recalled what Karen said during dinner and the unnatural behavior of Ankofiti and the others, and asked.

According to Karen, Anke should have been quite anxious at the time. Coupled with her unstable personality and the fact that Fiti returned alone, Xia Ye could guess what had happened with her toes.

"I! I... I didn't think too much at the time. I just thought that it was Fitty who left you alone and ran back... so... so... I said some harsh words..."

Seeing Xia Ye's serious expression, An Ke lowered his eyes and pursed his lips, like a kitten who knew he had done something wrong.

Although she began to regret it later, firstly, she and Fiti were not very familiar with each other, and secondly, she was too embarrassed to take the initiative to apologize to Fiti.

"Well...what did you say?" Xia Ye sighed.

To be honest, it was all his fault for being too reckless, and the appearance of Joey, who was completely beyond everyone's expectations, made the situation suddenly become quite bad.

"I said... I said she was a useless coward, and I threatened her... that if anything happened to you, I would hold her responsible..."

Fortunately, An Ke is not a bad person by nature. She has become a good girl in front of Xia Ye and she honestly admits what she said.

"Anke, I think you should apologize to Fiti in private."

After thinking for a while, Xia Ye hugged An Ke in his arms, stroked her delicate little face and said.

Although he can act as a peacemaker in this matter, the effect will definitely not be as good as if Encore solves it himself.

Xia Ye didn't want his beloved wife to have any grudges because of such a small dispute.

"I...I know!" An Ke bit her lower lip and looked around for a long time before finally agreeing. After hesitating for a while, she continued:

"But Xia Ye! Can you promise me that you won't leave me like this and make me worry..."

"I feel scared when I think that you might be buried in that terrible element fluctuation... I feel empty inside..."

Looking at the girl who had changed from her usual tough attitude to a gentle one, Xia Ye nodded and gently kissed her smooth forehead.

"Then shall I go and call Fiti over?"

"Um……"

…………

"Um...Fetti...I said something too harsh to you last night..."

After Xia Ye brought Fiti over, Anke knelt on the bed with her legs apart in a very girlish posture, lowered her head and admitted her mistake in a low voice.

Fiti was slightly startled, and looked at Xia Ye, who tilted his head towards her and gave her an apologetic smile:

"I also want to apologize because my own impromptu decision-making and recklessness almost caused your death."

"how come!"

Hearing this, Fiti was flattered and waved her hands repeatedly:

"We are all companions, we should protect each other!"

"And... and An Ke is right. I really... really don't have any... use..."

At the end, Fitty also lowered her head, looking equally remorseful.

"Who said that? If it weren't for you, I might not have been able to find that place." Xia Ye comforted.

"But... isn't it because we found a place..."

"Everything has its gains and losses. Although I almost lost my job when I ran into that researcher, I also got some great things and learned some important information. Fitty, you are great!"

"Really……"

Fiti looked at Xia Ye cautiously with her beautiful gray eyes.

"Of course it's true. Don't keep thinking that you will bring bad luck. Everything depends on human effort!"

Seeing that Fiti fell silent, Anke continued:

"Anyway! I won't talk to you like this again! That... is not what I really think, I just spoke too quickly..."

"It's okay, I know." Hearing this, Fiti narrowed her eyes and smiled sweetly.

For Fiti, who had suffered cold words and abuse from her closest relatives like Crona, what did Encore's panicked and incoherent words matter?

What's more, she could see that An Ke was apologizing sincerely.

Seeing that the atmosphere between the two had obviously become calmer, Xia Ye felt relieved.

At this time, the system prompted again:

[Feidi and Anke hidden bond mission: Completed with different caring attitudes]

[No special rewards]

[Requirements to unlock Fiti's factor sharing function: Complete 5 bond tasks, current progress 3/5]

[Encore's Factor Sharing Function Unlock Requirements: Complete 5 Bonding Tasks, Current Progress 3/5]

"Is this possible?" Xia Ye raised an eyebrow at the prompt in the system, and joked to the two little cuties who were smiling at each other:

"You two are really destined to be together. You have been together twice."

"What?" The two girls looked at him curiously at the same time.

"Nothing, just sighing at the wonder of fate." Xia Ye shrugged.

…………

After a small episode, Xia Ye and the other two came to Jinniel and Karen.

Next they need to discuss what to do next.

"So, everything is fine with you now, right?" Jinelle looked at Xia Ye and confirmed again.

"No problem at all, even better than before we set out." Xia Ye nodded.

After being injected with Joey's flaw weapon, his strength has indeed become the strongest in the five-man team.

If he meets someone of Dillwin's level again, he can easily beat him with just a little effort.

"But before you leave, do you have anything else to do?" Jinniel remembered that Xia Ye was going to come to the Clock City to look for someone.

"That's what I want to talk about today. Although Clock City is less than two days away from Gear City, we should rest here first. One is to replenish the energy of the off-road vehicle, and the other is that I have to go find someone."

Xia Ye nodded.

"When we were having dinner just now, you said that you absorbed that person's blue crystal. Will she come back here?"

When the other party mentioned this, Xia Ye recalled the reminder about the main quest that he had seen in the system early this morning but had not had time to pay attention to before:
