Chapter Seventy-Three: Fake Death and Get Out
Looking at the small pile of ashes on the ground, Stephen and the others felt a little incredible, they actually killed a gold-level powerhouse, although they only played a role in this battle, but this was enough to make them proud.
Liu Zhiyuan took out a glass jar and hit all the ashes, then handed it to Stephen and said, "These ashes are the proof that we killed Hotson, so I'll hand them over to you for safekeeping." ”
"No..." Stephen was silent for a while with the jar, then handed the jar back to Liu Zhiyuan, and said: "This time you not only saved us, but also used up a sixth-level magic scroll, such a great favor we can't repay now, so this time the reward will be handed over to you, I don't think they will have an opinion." ”
The others also nodded in agreement, especially Ai Wen said jokingly: "If you don't accept it, then I will have to give myself to you as compensation." ”
This sentence made everyone laugh, and after laughing for a while, Liu Zhiyuan looked at Stephen with a serious face and said: "Captain, first of all, we are a team, and the benefits we get should be divided equally, everyone has contributed, there is no reason to say that I am the only one who gets paid, and the Lord is only using the sixth-level scroll, which is not only for your life, but also for my own life, so there is nothing to say about it at all." ”
Looking at Liu Zhiyuan in a daze, Stephen caught the jar again, and said solemnly: "Yes, we are a team, but we still have to pay back this life owed, as long as it is something you ask for in the future, we will never refuse!" Everyone else nodded in agreement.
Looking at their serious appearance, Liu Zhiyuan smiled slightly and said: "Okay, no matter what, we should be happy to complete the task this time, why are they all like this, let's go back quickly, I haven't drunk emotional wine for a long time." ”
The others also laughed, and then they were ready to start reversing, and after leaving this frost city, Liu Zhiyuan looked at a snowy mountain intentionally or unintentionally, and after seeing the flashing red light there, he finally put his mind at ease, and then began to chat with Ai Wen and them.
And on the snowy mountain, Sydney and Hotson were already moving towards the other side with a group of undead soldiers, and Hotson complained while moving his new body: "Really, why do you have to let me destroy my original body, now I have completely fallen from gold to silver, I don't know when I will be able to recover my strength." ”
Regarding his lover's complaints, Sydney gave him a direct look and said, "Don't complain, Mr. Roque said, your original body is too damaged, even if it is repaired, it will affect your strength, it is better to replace it with a new one." And if your original body is destroyed, then everyone will think that you are dead, so that no one will come to hunt us down, isn't it great? Besides, you and I are both at the silver level, and we just want to compare the two of us to see who can update and step into the gold level, how about it?"
Hotson smiled and rubbed Sydney's head, and said, "Then you must be better than me, anyway, I used to be a gold-level powerhouse, and I had experience, and it wasn't too difficult to recover, so you better give up." ”
"Damn, you dare to look down on me!" said Sydney as she chased after Hotson, who was smiling and dodging, completely playing a game, and the rest of the members of the fanged remnants were commonplace, and they had seen such a scene for hundreds of years, but they were also undead, and they didn't know about the existence of single dogs.
"Okay, okay, I'm wrong. Where are we going next?" In the end, it was Hotson who conceded defeat first, and Sydney raised her fist triumphantly, and then said, "Next, let's go to Fright City, where His Highness and Brother Raymond are." Master Roque, let's hide when we get there and don't show up easily. Hotson nodded, and the group began to set off towards Horror City.
On the other side, Liu Zhiyuan and the others also took Buck's corpse eagle and returned to Meldor. Sitting on the back of the corpse eagle, Liu Zhiyuan said cautiously to the others: "Everyone, I want to ask you here not to tell me that I have a sixth-level magic scroll, and to say that we all worked together to kill it." ”
The others were a little puzzled, and Ai Wen asked curiously, "Why do you want to hide it?" This time it was you who had the greatest credit, just to tell them that you used up a sixth-level magic scroll and let them make amends." ”
Liu Zhiyuan shook his head with a wry smile: "This scroll is the treasure at the bottom of the lava chamber of commerce, because considering that the opponent I have to deal with this time is too strong, I took it out, it was originally just in case, but I didn't expect to really use it, I am worried that after this news leaks out, some people will be greedy and want to make a move against the lava chamber of commerce, so I ask everyone again not to tell this news." ”
After listening to Liu Zhi's explanation, everyone said that they would not say it, Liu Zhiyuan breathed a sigh of relief, in fact, he didn't have any sixth-level magic scrolls at all, it was just an illusion scroll, he was worried about attracting the attention of others, his identity was too sensitive, and he didn't want any accidents to happen.
After a few days of flying, everyone returned to the Demon Council, and in the reception room, Duke Yin's subordinates smiled and said: "Although you say that you have killed Hotson, you must have a certificate, if there is no certificate, then I can only let my men go to Frost City first, and then I will pay you after I am sure that Hotson is dead." ”
Stephen didn't have any ink, and directly took out the jar containing the ashes of Hotson's body, and the other party hesitated to grab a small handful of ashes and hold it in his hand. After confirming that this was the ashes of Hotson's body, the other party couldn't help but be a little surprised, after all, even if it was an injured gold-level powerhouse, it wasn't necessarily a group of silver-level powerhouses who could handle it, and even if they succeeded, they should pay a great price, but Liu Zhiyuan and they were all safe and sound, which was indeed a bit amazing.
However, the other party didn't have any ink, and directly took out the soul coffin that he had said before, and Stephen and the others excitedly accepted their payment, and in the end, Liu Zhiyuan was left.
"So this Roark mage, you can exchange it for any item equivalent to the Soul Coffin, I don't know what you want?"
"I don't want anything else, I want to raise the soul fruit!" Hearing what Liu Zhiyuan proposed, everyone felt a little strange, the soul cultivation fruit is also a more cherished thing, its role is to store the soul and improve the quality, but it is not as good as the soul coffin.
"Then are you really sure that you want to raise the Soul Fruit?" Duke Yinyou's subordinates asked again, and Liu Zhiyuan nodded his head to indicate certainty.
"Well, since you insist, then we are not stingy people, and the value of five soul cultivation fruits is definitely not under the soul coffin. ”
Liu Zhiyuan secretly thought in his heart: "Five soul cultivation fruits should be able to make Xiao Nick advance to the eighth level of black iron or even bronze." Then he asked, "So when will we get the things?"
Duke Yinyu's subordinates stood up, handed them a few envelopes, and said, "Tomorrow night we have a party, I want to invite a few people to attend, please be sure to appreciate your face, and Master Roque will be able to get what you want at the party tomorrow." ”
