With a flick of his wrist, the water slowly flowed into the tank. With him constantly creating the water, the water ball stayed afloat while the water flowed.
When the soldiers saw his control over the water, they were surprised. Compared to the water-type ability users in the camp, his proficiency in using his ability was several times higher than theirs.
Ten minutes later, Gu Shaoze's face had turned pale. His forehead and back were covered in sweat as he felt dizzy.
Seeing this, Rong Mo'er said, "Shaoze, enough. Take a rest first."
With a wave of his hand, the water ball entered the water tank. The next moment, his knees bent and he almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Rong Mo'er was there, and with a leap, she caught him and landed on the ground safely.
As she supported his body, she asked, "Shaoze, how are you feeling? Quickly absorb the energy."
Gu Shaoze leaned on her and held the crystal cores in his palm. Twenty minutes later, one of the crystal cores turned into fine dust.
After absorbing another crystal core, he finally recovered his energy and no longer felt dizzy. Sitting up, he let out a sigh and said, "Mo'er, I'm fine now."
Rong Mo'er reached out to wipe the sweat on his forehead and said, "Shaoze, how about you continue later? Just rest for a while."
Gu Shaoze felt that he would be able to break through to the next level if he used up his energy a few more times. So, he shook his head and said, "I'm fine."
Knowing how stubborn he was, Rong Mo'er could only let him do what he wanted.
When the soldiers saw him continue filling the water tank after absorbing the crystals, they were stunned.
They thought that the crystal cores were the payment for the water. Unexpectedly, they used the crystal cores to recover and continue providing water.
After thinking about it, wasn't this equal to using their crystals to create more water? In the end, the couple got nothing while they got a lot of water.
Reaching this conclusion, one of the soldiers went to find Wei Ying to report this matter.
Although this water warehouse was known as one of the camp's facilities, the truth was that this warehouse was owned by the Eagle Team and had nothing to do with the group controlling the camp.
While Gu Shaoze worked like a dedicated honey bee in the water warehouse, the soldier reached Wei Ying's place fifteen minutes later.
His place was a small house with two bedrooms, one kitchen, and one living room. Staying with him were several members of the Eagle Team. The rest of the team stayed at the next house.
The soldier knocked on the door and waited for a moment. When the door was opened, he gave a salute and said, "Captain Wei."
Wei Ying gestured for him to enter and asked, "Did something happen in the water warehouse?"
The soldier nodded and replied, "Captain Wei, there are two ability-users who came to visit the warehouse and one of them was a water-type ability-user. At this moment, he is filling up the water tank."
Hearing this, Wei Ying raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are these ability-users a couple?"
The soldier nodded and asked, "Captain, how did you know?"
"They just arrived at the base and came back with me. They are trustworthy," Wei Ying replied casually.
"Captain, they used the crystal cores to recover his energy and continue filling the water tank. So, I came to ask if you have more crystals. If we can provide more crystals, he might be able to fill up all of our water tanks," the soldier said.
After hearing this, Wei Ying thought for a moment and said, "Wait here."
"Yes, Captain."
Not long after, Wei Ying returned with a backpack and said, "Let's go. I will go with you to the water warehouse."
When the two of them reached the warehouse area, Gu Shaoze was resting as he absorbed the crystal cores.
Seeing him coming with the soldier, Rong Mo'er asked, "Captain Wei, why are you here?"
Wei Ying nodded at them and said, "I heard that a water-type ability-user was helping us to fill the water tank, so I came to take a look. I already guessed that it was you two."
Gu Shaoze smiled and replied, "Captain Wei, you are not coming just to say those words, are you?"
"Of course not," Wei Ying replied with a chuckle.
He placed the backpack in front of Gu Shaoze and said, "Comrade Gu, these are all of the crystal cores my team has. If you can help us fill the water tanks, these are yours."
Gu Shaoze opened the backpack and saw that the crystals were not only the transparent type but also elemental types. After calculating for a moment, he nodded and said, "Okay."
When Rong Mo'er heard this, she frowned and said in a low voice, "Shaoze, even if you can recover your energy, your body wouldn't be able to withstand the constant overuse of your energy."
"Comrade Rong, we are not in a rush. Comrade Gu can take his time. As long as he can fill the water tanks, it's okay even if it takes several days," Wei Ying said after hearing her words.
Rong Mo'er wanted to say more, but Gu Shaoze held her hand and said, "Mo'er, don't worry. I know what I'm doing."
Since he had made up his mind, Rong Mo'er no longer objected, albeit still feeling worried.
After he persuaded his girlfriend, Gu Shaoze looked at Wei Ying and said, "Captain Wei, I can try to fill the water tanks as soon as possible, but I don't want to be disturbed."
Nodding at his words, Wei Ying looked at his soldiers and said, "Everyone, guard outside and make sure no one comes to disturb Comrade Gu."
Receiving their order, the soldiers nodded and replied in unison, "Understood."
