Chu Xiu genuinely believed that there was no more perfect summon in the world than the Fierce Ghost.

Not only did it kill monsters swiftly and decisively, but after doing so, it also brought back the bodies for him to refine. It was truly considerate.

After entering the Warrior Tier, the Perfect Refining had significantly improved in both efficiency and precision.

In the Mortal Tier, refining such an elite would take at least one or two minutes, but now, ten seconds were enough.

This allowed him to refine along the way without causing significant delays in his movements.

He calculated that he currently had five Fierce Ghosts and thirty-one Yin Ghosts.

Among these Yin Ghosts, six had the potential to advance to Fierce Ghosts.

"Starting to take shape now."

Chu Xiu sighed, then looked at the map in his hand and fell into contemplation.

"Who drew this crappy map? The deviation is too big!"

He couldn't help but complain.

Chu Xiu walked for a long time and found himself going in circles.

But this wasn't the fault of the government staff, as they had never entered the Corpse Demon World. The map was completely drawn based on the collective oral accounts of numerous Awakened, so it'd be a ghost if it were precise.

Moreover, on the day of the Blood Moon Ceremony, a brawl broke out among a bunch of Warrior Tier creatures, further altering a lot of terrain, with many buildings destroyed.

After comparing for a while, he finally found a landmark building he could barely identify and confirmed his position.

"Less than ten miles from the gathering point now."

Chu Xiu thought for a moment, waved the Yin Soul Banner, and put away all the Yin Ghosts and Fierce Ghosts.

As he approached the gathering point, it was unnecessary to be so ostentatious. Firstly, the Corpse Demons nearby had been mostly cleared by the Awakened at the gathering point. Secondly, the density of Awakened in the area had increased dramatically, making it easy to cause unnecessary trouble.

His judgment was correct. It wasn't long before he found a building with a bright red flag on top.

"Here we are."

Chu Xiu took off his mask and robe, then walked inside.

At the main entrance, there were two Awakened guards. Inside the hall, there was a simple table and chair with a bored-looking young man sitting.

He looked up at Chu Xiu: "Name?"

"Chu Xiu."

The young man looked down and quickly found Chu Xiu's information in a small booklet. After comparing the photo, he handed Chu Xiu a small iron tag and said, "Go directly to the twentieth floor. Sister Qin has been waiting for you for a long time and specifically instructed me to inform her as soon as you arrive."

Chu Xiu took it and headed upstairs. As soon as he reached the twentieth floor, he saw Chu Qin standing in the corridor.

Her ash-brown hair was tied into a simple ponytail at her back, and she wore a set of black flying fish robes like those of the imperial guards, with a long sword at her waist. At that moment, she was discussing something in a low voice with a bespectacled, cultured-looking teenager.

Seeing Chu Xiu, Chu Qin's eyes lit up, and she let out a long sigh of relief: "You finally came. I was worried something might have happened to you. If you were any later, I was going to look for you."

Chu Xiu smiled: "You don't need to worry about me. Just focus on your tasks."

"Oh, stop talking like we're strangers," Chu Qin put down the file in her hand and said to the bespectacled teenager beside her: "You're the government-assigned analyst. You arrange the rest."

She then walked briskly toward Chu Xiu and said with a smile, "Come on, I'll introduce you to the situation at the base."

Chu Xiu didn't refuse.

Due to the high mortality rate in this society, people got married and had children early. The legal marriage and childbirth age had been lowered to 18, and many couples got a certificate right after graduating high school.

The relationship between Chu Qin and Qingshan was very stable. Although she was called a girlfriend, she was practically a wife. Therefore, Chu Qin had always treated Chu Xiu very well. She was as righteous as Zhang Qingshan.

Chu Xiu knew that Chu Qin wouldn't feel at ease until he was properly settled.

She led Chu Xiu through the corridor, continued upstairs, and introduced along the way: "Our base has two Warrior Tiers, me and a rich second-generation named Shen Tuhu. He's the chief person in charge here, so your tasks and rewards will be arranged by him. I can't arbitrarily disturb the order."

Chu Xiu nodded, then asked, "And the others? How much monster information does the base have?"

Hearing his question, Chu Qin was slightly stunned, hesitated a bit before saying: "There are eighteen professionals above B Grade, and the information from the government covers monster data within a twenty-mile radius centered on the base. Eleven Warrior Tier creatures can be confirmed, and there are two nests. Of course, there's certainly a lot we missed, and we are still dispatching personnel to explore and gather intelligence. We'll officially act once we're fully prepared tomorrow."

"After all, our goal is to consume these resources as much as possible without harm."

After a pause, Chu Qin looked at Chu Xiu and added: "But you don't need to worry about these things. Being in a support profession, you just need to stay at the camp. Don't worry about losing out, as the pay for support professions is high and won't be less than the gains of team members who fight outside."

It was evident that Chu Xiu's question had alarmed Chu Qin. She was afraid that Chu Xiu wasn't content with being in a support profession and wanted to go out with the battle group to hunt Corpse Demons, so she quickly advised him.

Chu Xiu didn't explain; he just thought silently in his heart.

"A single base has two Warrior Tiers, and based on some of the information I previously gathered, there are at least twenty Warrior Tiers entering the Abyss this time."

The reason there were so many people was that tiers and talents weren't necessarily related.

Take Guan Ke, for instance. The A+S combination was definitely a Seven Knights-level talent, yet she was only about Level 7. Unless she was ruthless enough to reach Level 9 before the last day and begin the Warrior Tier trial and luckily pass, she'd have a chance of getting a share. Otherwise, the Positioning Anchor Point was practically out of reach for her.
