The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Chapter 1520: Chapter 1520: Soul Device Laboratory

Complete failure, all the materials prepared by the Cheng family were completely consumed without any results, which means Master Mickey Dodge’s experiment on the High-level Soul Device has completely failed this time.

Mickey Dodge was very angry, and the atmosphere in the entire laboratory was extremely heavy. When the door of the laboratory was pushed open, Mickey Dodge came out with a sullen face, and at this moment no one dared to make a sound.

Jona stood obediently to one side.

As Mickey Dodge passed by and caught a glimpse of Jona, Charlie, and others, he couldn’t help but put on a stern face and said, "What are you doing standing there? Get back to your tasks."

Jona lowered her head, "Yes."

Charlie also lowered his head as much as possible, "Yes."

The others did the same.

This sentence was like a special amnesty, and after hearing it, everyone couldn’t help but let out a breath of relief. At least they wouldn’t have to face Master Mickey’s wrath directly, which was really a relief.

Jona stood silently to the side, waiting for the others to leave in order. She was standing less than one meter away from Master Mickey. If she left now, it would inevitably attract Mickey Dodge’s attention. As the most senior assistant to Master Mickey, Jona was well-versed in the survival rules of the laboratory.

second.

seconds.

seconds.

...

When Charlie also started to leave, Jona thought it was finally her turn, so she gently lifted her foot, unexpectedly attracting Mickey Dodge’s attention with just this action.

Mickey Dodge waved his hand, "Jona, come over here."

Jona retracted her foot and put on a flawless smile, "Alright."

Mickey Dodge pointed to the warehouse where the laboratory’s materials were stored and said, "How much Snow Juice do we have left in our laboratory?"

Jona reported a number.

Mickey Dodge pondered and then asked, "What about Level 9 Butterfly Honey?"

Jona said, "The new batch of butterfly honey is still being urgently procured, currently, we only have 70.5 grams."

Mickey Dodge immediately frowned, "So little? Tell the suppliers to send another batch over."

Jona pursed her lips and finally said, "Yes, I will urge them again." Even Level 1-3 Low-level Butterfly Honey is very precious, a luxury item that ordinary people dare not even imagine, but Level 9? That’s a heavenly number, priced in milligrams. Such Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, which ordinary people dare not even dream of, were nonetheless readily accessible to Mickey Dodge due to his status as a Soul Artifact Master. Moreover, Mickey Dodge Laboratory had a stable source of supply, and all this source asked for was the privilege of priority purchase of soul devices from Mickey Dodge.

At such times, Jona couldn’t help but envy Master Mickey, envious of his ability to access so many high-quality resources while she could not.

When will... she be able to become a Soul Artifact Master herself?

Doubt crept into Jona’s mind once again.

Mickey Dodge asked about several other materials, all of which were scarce, and Jona answered one by one. Recently, Master Mickey had used too many, resulting in overconsumption, and the stocks of these Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures were nearly depleted.

Then.

The expression on Mickey Dodge’s face grew increasingly unpleasant.

The next second, Mickey Dodge, with a sombre face, said, "Notify the Cheng family to prepare the same amount of materials again and compensate me with 10 Crystal Stones above Level 8."

Jona was shocked, "!!! Master... this... this..."

Mickey Dodge gave Jona a cold glance and said, "What ’this’? If you can’t handle it, I’ll find someone else who can. If the Cheng family can’t handle it, I’ll turn to the Zhang family, Li family, Wang family... Does Mickey Dodge need to beg others to deliver materials to him?"

Jona lowered her head.

Mickey Dodge said, "Is there any problem?"

Jona shook her head.

"Charlie, send in the various materials I need." Mickey Dodge, with his hands behind his back, added after thinking for a moment, "And make me a cup of coffee."

After saying this.

Mickey Dodge returned to the research room.

Charlie dared not delay and quickly went to take care of it.

Jona also went back to her office. She stared blankly for a few seconds at the white wall opposite her desk. From what Jona knew of Master Mickey Dodge, urgently calling for so many Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures like this was clearly unusual, and it was unlikely to be for soul artifact manufacturing. Seeing his hasty return to the research lab, it’s likely that his latest soul device creation had taken a toll on his spiritual power.

A Soul Artifact Master, even when crafting High-level Soul Devices, could hurt themselves, which highlights just how difficult it is to create High-level Soul Devices.

Is Master Mickey Dodge’s injury serious this time?

To be honest, Jona still hoped that Master Mickey could stay healthy and successfully create a High-level Soul Device. Perhaps if he was in a good mood, he might decide to teach her how to craft soul devices.

...

Jona dared not let her thoughts wander any longer. The work at hand was urgent, and she immediately opened the light computer, finding the contact number of the person in Cheng family responsible for custom High-level Soul Devices this time.

After connecting, Jona explained Master Mickey’s request one by one.

The person in charge on the Cheng family’s side was Housekeeper Cheng. On hearing Jona’s purpose, his face changed slightly. After thinking for a while, he said, "Ms. Qiao, does Master Mickey mean to say that we need to prepare five more sets as before?"

Jona nodded.

Housekeeper Cheng seemed a bit troubled as he said, "It’s possible, but some materials are very hard to find, and we’ll need some time."

This time, for the second young master’s spiritual power upgrade, the Cheng family spared no expense, agreeing with Master Mickey and providing all the materials and items he required as per the agreement.

This had already cost the Cheng family a considerable amount.

Creating High-level Soul Devices is difficult, requiring the right timing, geographical convenience, and human harmony... nothing can be lacking. Mrs. Cheng, feeling it was uncertain, had an additional five sets prepared as a precaution.

The Cheng family indeed had materials on hand, but—

To prevent Master Mickey from making excessive demands again, the housekeeper had to appear extremely concerned. He gritted his teeth and said, with a pained look, "It’s truly a bit challenging for us to prepare."

Jona was just a messenger and couldn’t represent Master Mickey himself, so she behaved very officially, saying, "You can have about 10 days, plus 10 more Crystal Stones above Level 8."

days? That’s manageable. Housekeeper Cheng was about to agree when he heard the latter part, nearly jumping up, "What? 10... 10 Crystal Stones above Level 8?!!!"

Crystal Stones!!

Above Level 8!

pieces at once!

Is Mickey Dodge trying to rob us? Does he think he is of interstellar pirate origin?

No!

He’s even more outrageous than interstellar pirates! He’s simply a Gold Swallowing Beast! Consuming so many valuable things sent by the Cheng family, yet failing to produce a High-level Soul Device in the end!

Jona, in a calm tone, said, "Master Mickey said if you don’t agree, he’ll find someone else who will."

Housekeeper Cheng gritted his teeth and said, "Sorry, this is a significant matter; I need to report to the head family and will get back to you shortly."

Jona nodded.
