After hearing it, Clovis remained silent. In fact, this request put him in a dilemma. On the one hand, the fact that Melody would do anything as long as her brother was saved was a great offer. On the other hand, what would she do next after that? Melody might work hard at first, but the moment her brother recovered, she would be making the hardest choice of her life. To avoid her brother getting injured like this again, she might end up quitting the group and retiring. Or she would truly dedicate her life to the group. After listening to Melody's story, Clovis believed that she would choose the former. After all, she had been accompanying her brother for years no matter how hard it was. If he rejected her like this, he wondered if he could find another talented mobile operator like her in this city. Eventually, he had to go out of this city and broaden his horizons. But it would still take a long time. And the reason why Melody asked him like this was because of his mother. She rarely showed herself, but his mother was a Tier 7 doctor. If she couldn't cure Melody's brother, his father or even grandfather still had enough influence to bring a doctor who could do it. Meanwhile, Kanaria got the shock of her life.@@@@ 'What?' Kanaria took a step back, recalling all the information about Melody's other name. 'Peach? Isn't that the genius mobile operator whose name once shocked the entire city? It was said that she was smart and powerful. At the same time, her processing speed was much faster than even a Tier 3 mobile operator. 'Her talent was wanted by many. However, her name soon disappeared as if she had never existed. If the story was correct, Peach was not killed but retired. So, the lazy operator that we had all this time was the legendary mobile operator?' Kanaria sucked a cold breath. She finally understood why her mother recommended her. It wasn't because of her ability or her cheap rate. It was due to her former identity. However, Kanaria couldn't accept or reject her request. The one who had the ability to recruit her was Clovis. Clovis fell into deep thought. He had to be careful because Melody might quit halfway. 'I don't need a lot of people in my group. At most, I will only have a total of twelve people, which can be divided into two groups. And a mobile operator...' He had a mixed opinion between his sympathy and rationality. The longer Clovis took to answer her, the more awkward the atmosphere became. Melody could only look down, thinking that Clovis truly couldn't help her. She looked at the ring on her finger, thinking this was the time for them to part ways. When Melody saw his evolution rate, she couldn't help but drop her jaw to the ground. There was no way she could believe that Clovis only had this much. She had seen Clovis's birthday, so it had only been a month since he awakened. "The reason for me to be able to reach Tier 1 is because I'm lucky enough to receive the help of the super injection. Without them, I am not capable of doing anything." Melody didn't expect this revelation. He thought Clovis would have a high evolution rate. Even if he weren't as high as his father or grandfather, he would still at least get 70%. Kanaria understood what Clovis was trying to let her know. She added, "After the second generation of explorers is born, the world finally knows that your parents' evolution rate corresponds to their children's evolution rate. "Of course, I'm sure that there are several exceptions like you, Melody. And Clovis happens to be one of the exceptions as well." Kanaria sighed. This was probably the biggest reason why most high-tier humans had multiple partners. Her father might only have had one wife, but her uncle had three wives. There was even talk about her brother's potential second wife. Although there were some exceptions, people still chose the easier path. And Clovis wanted to let her know that he wouldn't be able to help her. His family? It had been cut off. His potential? What could someone of his caliber do? Clovis used reverse psychology to show that she had misplaced her trust. But to his surprise, Melody held Clovis's hands and even rubbed his palms as if she were trying to feel the rough hand and the callouses the training had left behind. "So... despite having only a 15% evolution rate, you still work this hard? I know for sure how much despair someone with a low evolution rate has. If you still haven't given up, then I also won't give up. That's why... Please, allow me to join your group." Clovis took a deep breath. It seemed that he got his answer. "Alright. Please keep the ring, but you have to remember, this time you are joining us as a mobile operator." "Yes. I'm prepared to work to the bone. If you think I'm still too lazy, you can just slap or whip me. Besides, the real reason for my laziness has been solved by you." Melody raised her hand, showing him the ring he gave her. "Pleasure to work with you, Captain."
