Ugly, Fat, and Vicious? My Five Beast Husbands Are Obsessed Anyway

Chapter 50: Chapter 50: Super Value Double Reward

"Congratulations, Host, for successfully conquering five targets at once. You are rewarded with a grand gift package containing a map atlas and the sensitive spots of your conquest targets."

’A map atlas? Sensitive spots? That’s it?’ Su Luoluo curled her lip.

’I thought the system was going to give me a huge prize, but this is all I get.’

’How lame.’

Su Luoluo felt a little disappointed.

"Of course not. That’s just an extra grand gift package from the system. In addition, your reward also includes upgrading your Water Ability to Level 3 and your Gold, Wood, Earth, and Fire Element superpowers to Level 1."

’My Water Ability is being upgraded to Level 3?’

This was a reward Su Luoluo hadn’t expected. At the second level, her Water Energy could accelerate things, and now Level 3 had a cleaning function.

’With this, my quest for fairer skin just got a lot easier.’

Back in the Post-apocalypse, the only superpower she’d ever tested for was Water Element, so she knew nothing about the others.

’Now that I’ve been gifted these other superpowers all at once, how do I even use them?’

’I never thought that here in the Beast World, I’d actually become a Hexagon Warrior, dabbling in five different kinds of superpowers.’

’Looks like life in the Beast World is starting to look up.’

’I wonder what these Gold, Wood, Earth, and Fire Element superpowers can do?’

"System, how do I use the other superpowers?"

Now that she had new superpowers, it was only natural to ask.

"A user guide has been sent to you, Host. You can follow the instructions within it."

’A guide?’

’Isn’t that just an instruction manual?’

This put Su Luoluo’s mind at ease. "I get it. Thanks, System."

"Host, because there are many people around, the gift package and guide will be hidden in your system backpack so as not to interfere with your tasks. You can check them later."

Su Luoluo nodded. "Alright."

’I can’t believe this stingy system actually gave me so much this time. As soon as I’m free, I have to find a private place to study it all carefully.’

She was especially thrilled about the cleaning function.

’I was just worrying that using pearls for skin whitening wasn’t very effective. This cleaning function will be a huge help.’

As the water in the pot continued to heat up, more and more salt crystallized along the rim of the clay pot.

A Beastman standing near Su Luoluo saw this and couldn’t help but cry out, "It’s appearing! There’s more and more salt!"

When Su Yang saw this, he ignored the scalding heat and grabbed a handful of salt from the rim of the clay pot with his bare hand. He dabbed a little on his finger and tasted it, his face lighting up with joy. "Excellent. This salt tastes pure."

As he spoke, he glanced at Su Zhao. "Bring out the salt we traded for from the city-state."

Su Zhao did as he was told, taking the salt out from within his beast skin clothes.

Before Su Zhao could open it, Su Yang took the packet, unwrapped the tightly bound beast skin, and compared its contents to the salt in his other hand.

Under the sun, the two handfuls of salt glittered, looking incredibly white.

But the salt in his left hand was clearly more brilliant than the salt from the Beast Skin Bag in his right.

"This salt is even whiter and finer than what we get from the city-state!" someone in the crowd cried out in surprise.

Su Zhao was also in disbelief. After looking back and forth several times, he licked a bit of the salt from Su Yang’s hand. He was shocked to find that the salt Su Luoluo had refined tasted better, with no bitterness at all.

He couldn’t help but exclaim in astonishment, "How is this possible? This salt’s taste is even more refined than the one from the city-state."

Hearing this, Su Luoluo scoffed internally. ’Of course it’s better.’

’The salt from the city-state is only made through simple precipitation. They don’t filter out the impurities in the brine at all. Of course it can’t compare to mine, which has an extra filtration layer using charcoal and fine sand.’

’I’d disdained their salt from the moment I started using it, but since conditions were limited, I had no choice but to make do.’

Lan Ya stood to the side, having watched the entire process. She still couldn’t believe Su Luoluo had actually managed to produce salt.

Su Nuannuan was also stunned. She never imagined Su Luoluo would also know how to purify salt.

’She was already a handful just for knowing how to cook, and now she can purify salt on top of that.’

’Did she learn all of this from her Black Bear Foster Mother?’

’It looks like I’ll have to find a way to track down this black bear.’

Su Yang looked at the snow-white salt in his hand and burst out laughing. He raised Su Luoluo’s hand and declared, "Our Wolf Clan has salt! Well done, Luoluo!"

He had only let Su Luoluo try it out, never actually expecting her to succeed.

And what’s more, her skill at refining salt was even higher than that of the people in the city-state.

He couldn’t help but look at Su Luoluo with newfound respect.

At his words, the Beastmen erupted in cheers.

"Well done, Luoluo!"

"Well done, Luoluo!"

"Well done, Luoluo!"

...

The whole crowd chanted the slogan in unison.

They all gazed at Su Luoluo with adoration, as if she were the moon surrounded by stars.

Su Luoluo hadn’t expected to earn so much reverence just by purifying some salt, and she began to feel a little embarrassed.

Out of the corner of her eye, she met Nantu’s gaze. His eyes were filled with admiration, but the moment he noticed her looking back, his expression instantly twisted into one of disgust.

Su Luoluo: "..."

’I didn’t even do anything. Why the lightning-fast change in attitude?’

’Luan Ting, on the other hand, was much better. He just looked at her with eyes full of admiration and approval.’

Su Luoluo smiled and gave him a playful arch of her eyebrows.

This made the tips of Luan Ting’s ears turn red.

Xiao Ye watched Su Luoluo with his arms crossed, a faint smile on his lips. But when he saw her raise her eyebrows at Luan Ting, his smile vanished in an instant, his lips pressing into a thin line.

Mo Xuan stroked his chin, watching Su Luoluo thoughtfully.

Fu Feng, for his part, thought it was incredible. ’How did Su Luoluo even do that?’

’The people in the city-state definitely don’t use this method to purify salt.’

’Especially using plant ash and charcoal—it looked like she was just messing around, but the result was astonishing.’

’The water went from murky to clear, just like that.’

The cheering continued for a while before finally dying down.

As the leader, Su Yang lowered his hand to signal for silence. He then warned in a grave voice, "This matter of purifying salt is of the utmost importance. Everyone in the tribe must guard this secret strictly, lest other tribes find out and try to seize the Salt Well."

"Yes!"

The tribe members all responded in unison.

Discovering a Salt Well was a wonderful thing, but if word got out, it could very well lead to a massacre.

As a leader, Su Yang was well aware of this danger, which was why he warned his clansmen beforehand.

After he finished, he turned back to Su Luoluo. "When it comes to the salt, we’ll follow your lead. Just tell everyone when we can start mining it."

Su Luoluo nodded.

After the salt purification was finished, Su Luoluo became something of a hero to the tribe.

Many people came up to ask how she knew how to purify salt.

Su Luoluo gave the same answer to everyone, attributing her knowledge to her distant and mysterious Black Bear Foster Mother.

The tribe members believed her without a doubt. After all, her cooking skills had supposedly come from the same source.

It seemed perfectly normal to them that the black bear would also know this salt purification method.

After that question was answered, they tried to ask more, but Su Luoluo managed to escape by using the excuse that she still had to make dinner.
