Miss Star, spoiled by her father and brother

Chapter 58 The Most Suitable Gift

Sifos raised his gun and aimed. With a whoosh sound, the rope gun pierced steadily into the wooden stake. An extremely thin silk thread was connected in the middle. If the Goodale people did not generally have good eyesight, they would not have been able to see it at night.

Several people hurried over and saw that the wooden stake as thick as a head was already covered with cracks like a spider web. The chief stretched out his hand and broke it open, and the contents were clearly exposed in front of them.

They saw that the diamond-shaped shuttle that Sifos had just shown them had turned into a four-claw hook, and the tip looked very sharp.

Sifos reminded everyone to be careful, then controlled the switch, retracted the rope, closed the four-claw hook again, and retracted it into the gun along with the rope, leaving only the broken firewood on the ground.

"Dry wood is too brittle. If the fixed object is strong enough, we can hold the gun handle tightly, and the rope will shrink and carry us over."

"Can stones be pierced?"

"Yes, this gun can adjust the force of the shot, but the harder the object, the greater the wear on the shuttle, so it needs to be replaced in time."

"Come, come, here is a living tree, try it." The chief couldn't wait to pull Sifos to a corner of the yard, where there was a tree as thick as a bowl. Sifos didn't know what species it was.

"Are you sure? It's very destructive and the tree might die."

"It's okay!" The chief waved his hand.

"This is a sapling tree. It's good for nothing except growing firewood. Go ahead and poke it."

Hearing this, Sifos no longer hesitated and shot directly at the tree trunk above. After it got stuck, the rope contracted and Sifos' feet were lifted off the ground.

The chieftain and his wife below opened their mouths in surprise, as did Xu Weiwei in Sifos's arms. She was in the first person's perspective, swinging up with Sifos. This was simply a science fiction movie reflected in reality, exactly like what was played in that thief movie.

Seeing Xu Weiwei's eyes and mouth wide open with an expression of wonder, Sifos smiled and said, "Is it fun? How about another time?"

So the four of them watched as Sifos whizzed up and whizzed down, swinging on the swing in the middle...

At this moment, the chief and his wife understood what their sons meant by "like a spider spirit."

Xu Weiwei laughed happily. She was not afraid at all. She even felt excited. How was this different from being in an amusement park? Although she had never ridden a pendulum, a bungee jumping machine, or a roller coaster, she thought it was similar.

"Um...you can come down now, Mr. Sifos." The chief couldn't help but interrupt.

Sifos put away his gun and fell to the ground. As he came down, he put his hand to protect Xu Weiwei on his chest.

Back in the pavilion, the two kept exclaiming, "This thing is amazing. We were already surprised by your spaceship before, but we didn't expect you to have so many new and interesting gadgets."

"Cameras, computers, and baby bottles... People there really know how to think of ways to solve problems."

"You are too kind. In fact, I want to give you the rope gun. I hope you can accept it."

"What?!" the four of them shouted in surprise at the same time.

"I can provide you with one hundred, no, one thousand. I am willing to provide you with one thousand of these rope guns as a token of the care that the Goodell people have shown us during this period of time."

The chief subconsciously wanted to refuse: "No, this won't work. It's too expensive. We are just hosting you for a few meals. It's not appropriate to accept such an expensive gift."

Seaforth shook his head. “It’s not just a few meals. You saved my daughter’s life.”

"It's just some medicinal herbs, nothing." The chief waved his hand.

"These rope guns look the same to me. Have you forgotten what I do? Small equipment like rope guns are already a low-cost expense in my army."

"My daughter's life and health are priceless. The friendship between the Gudel people and me is priceless. These days I have often thought about how I can repay you. I originally wanted to help you dig more Ula grass, but I accidentally discovered that this thing might be useful to you."

"As you have just seen, it is much more convenient to use than traditional ropes. And I am only using the simplified version. You can also hang straps and safety lassoes on it to prevent it from slipping out of your hands. It has a higher safety factor. You can also sit down, so both hands are free, making it more convenient to do things."

The four of them were even more excited after hearing this. Gan Li and Gan Yi couldn't wait to urge their father to agree, while the chief was still trying to make the final move: "This is not a good idea..."

"It's really nothing to me. You can distribute these 1,000 guns to the tribesmen, which will greatly reduce the casualties when picking Ula grass. Maybe they can also be used when doing other things. Besides, my team members and I are here, and we can guarantee to teach everyone."

What was there to hesitate about? The chief couldn't think of any reason to refuse, and he didn't want to refuse at all.

"Okay, then I will shamelessly accept it on behalf of my tribesmen." The chief said, seemingly embarrassed but actually happy.

The chief's wife also laughed out loud, and the two young men were so happy that they jumped up from their chairs and cheered.

Great! They can have such a useful tool! So cool! I was envious of them when I saw them during the day, and now they can also "fly over the eaves and walk on the walls"!

"It's just... there's a small problem."

Sifos' words made the people who were immersed in joy feel a pang in their hearts. Their happiness came to an abrupt end and they even felt heavy-hearted, thinking that he was going to put forward some conditions.

The chief's expression became serious and he asked in a deep voice, "What's the problem?"

"I don't have so many rope guns now."

The chief's family: "..."

Xu Weiwei: “…” Dear Daddy, do you know that you’ll get beaten if you talk like that?

The four of them were also speechless. You didn’t lay so much groundwork?! What are you talking about here?! Is it fun to tease them???

Although he was furious inside, the chief still managed an ugly smile: "Well, forget it, it's nothing, we don't want it."

"No, it must be delivered. What I mean is that we don't have that much on this starship now, so I need my subordinates on the Imperial Capital Star to deliver the things over. They won't stay for long, and will leave after delivering them. Do you think this is okay?"

It turned out that it was because of this. Several people breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the person who made the decision - the chief.

The man thought about it for a moment and agreed. Anyway, they have already accepted these people here, so it doesn't matter if they come again. It's just a trouble to close the formation again. But speaking of it, Xifus seems to know how to get in. Hiss - forget about it, I'll discuss it with the priest later...
