Infinite Travel: I know a lot of goddesses

Chapter 1044! Value and Conspiracy

……

However, despite Vanti's deliberate concealment, Charles, who had already made up his mind to continue to cause trouble for Shen Ye, would not give up so easily. After thinking for a while, he said, "I remember that Penny was saved by that guy on the ground, right?"

The news that Penny was rescued by Shen Ye had already spread among the wasteland hunters and the dust people, so Fandi could only nod and say, "Yes."

"Then they must have a very good relationship. After all, that guy is her savior." Charles said, picked up a tablet and tapped a few times, then a sneer appeared on his face: "It turns out that Penny has already been assigned the breeding task. Vanti, why didn't you notify her to participate?"

"Because the last time she participated in the material collection operation, she gained a lot of benefits. According to the rules, letting her continue to participate in the material collection in the scavenger team will gain more benefits than breeding, so her breeding mission has been temporarily suspended." This time, Fandi was serious and there was no lie.

After all, in the rules of the lighthouse, the most important thing is personal value. When the material benefits of a scavenger, especially a female scavenger, are higher than breeding, they will not be easily sent to participate in breeding tasks. After all, ten months of pregnancy means that they cannot participate in material collection tasks for ten months. The losses during this period are huge.

Just like in the original plot, after Penny's death, the original breeding task did not fall on Ran Bing's head. After all, she was the deputy commander of the wasteland hunters. Similarly, the profits she generated from collecting supplies were higher than those from breeding. So if Charles had not interfered, she would probably have to wait several years before carrying out the breeding task.

As for the last supply collection operation, due to Shen Ye's intervention, the gains far outweighed the losses. Not only did more scavengers survive, but a large amount of supplies were also harvested. Therefore, according to the rules, Penny, whose own value had increased, was temporarily canceled from the breeding task.

But for Charles, some of the so-called rules at the lighthouse were nothing.

"It was planned to have Penny perform the breeding mission. We can't suspend her mission just because she made some contributions. Vandy, notify her tomorrow to go on the breeding mission in a few days."

"Yes……"

After hesitating for a moment, Fanti nodded.

But at this moment, anxiety was already evident in the eyes of her and Fan Lu, who was silent behind her.

……

Just when Charles was planning how to use Penny and others to deal with Shen Ye, on the other side, Shen Ye happened to be walking with Penny.

Since a lot of things happened today, people like Hong Kou and Ran Bing all had their own things to do, so only scavengers like Penny and Feixue who had no duties were free.

However, Feixue and Erica were called to the armory room by Jessica, so in the end only Penny was left to accompany Shen Ye.

Probably because it was her first time traveling alone with Shen Ye, Penny seemed very nervous at this moment. After all, she was not a woman like Ran Bing and Erica who was ignorant about feelings. Instead, she already had a certain understanding of the word "like". She looked at the man next to her who was almost a head taller than her, her mouth opening and closing, as if she wanted to say something but stopped herself.

Shen Ye naturally noticed her little action. After passing the corner of a corridor, he slowed down his pace and asked, "Penny, do you have anything to say to me?"

Although Penny is just a passerby NPC who disappears as soon as she appears in the plot, she is kind-hearted, so Shen Ye naturally will not treat her with the same attitude as he treats Fandi and Fanlu, so when asking questions, his tone is extremely gentle.

The gentle tone of the man beside her calmed Penny's nervousness. After thinking for a moment and sorting out her thoughts, she whispered, "Will you stay on the lighthouse forever?"

This question surprised Shen Ye a little, but after thinking about it, he seemed to understand something.

"Of course not. To be honest, I don't like it here. There are too many rules."

"So you'll leave here later?"

"Yeah." Shen Ye nodded.

"Then when are you leaving?" Penny started to get nervous again.

"I'm not sure, but I shouldn't stay for too long." Shen Ye looked at her sideways and deliberately asked, "Why are you asking this?"

"I..." Penny didn't know what to say after being looked at by Shen Ye. She could only lower her head and stammered, "Um... what do you think... I... no, I mean, are you planning to... plan to go alone in the future?"

"Of course I don't want to go alone. After all, it's so boring to stay on the ground alone." Shen Ye said with pretended regret: "It's a pity that the ground is too dangerous. Even if I want to invite others to go with me, I'm afraid no one will be willing to go with me."

"No, there will definitely be someone willing to do it." Penny whispered.

"Oh! Are you so sure?" Shen Ye looked at her with a smile.

"Because... because I..."

But just as Penny was speaking with difficulty due to shyness, a burst of crisp footsteps suddenly sounded in the corridor, and the sound of high heels stepping on the ground was unusually loud in the quiet corridor.

Hearing the footsteps, Penny, who was already embarrassed to speak out her thoughts, immediately shut her mouth and looked forward with Shen Ye.

"It's the Light Bearer."

Seeing the familiar outfit of the Lightbringer Vanti, Penny immediately felt guilty.

"It's okay, let me do it." Shen Ye was very sensitive to Penny's guilty conscience and knew why she felt guilty. So he stepped forward and blocked her behind him. Then he said to the Light Bearer who was about to walk in front of him in a bad mood: "What are you doing here?"

"I have something to talk to you about." Fanti glanced at Penny who was sticking her head out from behind Shen Ye. Her eyes were suddenly filled with jealousy. After all, Shen Ye's action of protecting Penny behind him was something she had never experienced before.

"Bitch, you should be allowed into the Dawn Hall."

When the fire of jealousy ignited, a terrible thought came to her mind, but when she saw Shen Ye suddenly frowning, she quickly dismissed the idea.

Shen Ye could sense the jealousy that was almost solidified in Vanti, and most of it was directed at Penny. After looking around the corridor, he frowned and asked, "What's the matter with you looking for me?"

"Let her go, I want to talk to you alone." Vanti pointed at Penny and said.

"Do not……"

"Okay." Shen Ye interrupted Penny and turned to her and said, "Penny, you go back first."

"But..." Penny naturally didn't want to leave Shen Ye alone to face the Light Bearer. In her opinion, the appearance of the Light Bearer would definitely not be a good thing.

"Don't worry, she won't do anything to me." Shen Ye patted the blonde girl's shoulder, then in Penny's shocked eyes, stepped forward and grabbed the Light Bearer's arm.

"let's go."
