Chapter 261 - Additional Quest Rewards (2/2)

Schuck pursed his lips in a sneer, the greatsword already in his hand.

Because his armor was dissolved by the green dragon’s acid, Schuck was now wearing regular clothes, all dressed in black, and with a charisma value that was already as high as sixteen points, he looked immensely charming.

And the more handsome he was, the more irritating he became when he smiled mockingly.

Suel was about to lose his temper, and Solomon’s expression wasn’t too good either.

The more annoyed Suel got, the more happily Schuck smiled.

The atmosphere between the two sides was growing charged, and as it was about to explode, Hawk, who had finished killing the elves, jumped over.

With a loud bang, he Leap Slashed to the edge of the crater and came over with a smile. “Haha, that was awesome, this quest sure was… Erm, what happened?”

His smile quickly stiffened, then he noticed something wrong with the atmosphere and asked, confused, “What happened?”

Suel spoke first. “Deputy Leader, there was a piece of equipment that dropped from the dragon corpse, and it was stolen by Guild Leader Schuck.”

“Do you dare to swear on your conscience?” Shuck sneered. “I’ve been recording this since half an hour ago.”

Suel’s expression became noticeably worse, and he tsked lightly and didn’t say anything else.

Hawk turned his head to look at Schuck. “Guild Leader Schuck, did the dragon corpse really drop the equipment?”

“It wasn’t from the dragon corpse, it was a gift from the G.o.ddess of Light,” Schuck said bluntly. “This is the last time I will reiterate that fact.”

Hawk took a deep breath and was about to speak.

At this moment, Suel said in a sarcastic manner, “You saying so doesn’t mean it is so. If you have the guts, show us the attributes. Going off about how it’s a gift the G.o.ddess of Light gave to you—you think you are her mistress?”

Schuck’s eyes narrowed, and he was prepared to raise his greatsword.

Roland was ready to attack as well, with his summoning spell at the ready.

At this moment, an elf appeared next to their two teams, very conspicuous as he stepped out of the dying forest fire.

The crowd’s attention immediately refocused and the atmosphere eased a bit.

“What are you guys doing?” Ans asked curiously as he came over.

Betta came forward voluntarily and said, “Nothing, just discussing some issues.”

Ans smiled, a smile that at first glance looked a little odd, but on closer inspection was quite normal.

Roland and a few other more mature people realized that Ans was watching in amus.e.m.e.nt as they made a fool of themselves.

It was just not easy for them to explain.

Ans walked to the edge of the crater and looked at the dragon corpse below. He was a little surprised, not by the dragon corpse, not by the death of his teacher, but by the fact that the spell had created this huge crater.

He turned back, looking at Roland with an odd expression.

He then stretched out his hand in front of Roland and the others, and in his white hand, there were a few purple petals.

The petals were translucent, and one could see the venation in them. They had a smooth surface, like they were glazed over.

They looked at each other, but it was Roland who finally walked up and took a petal in his hand first, breaking the awkward atmosphere.

The others then followed suit and took the petals from Ans.

After each person got a petal, Ans withdrew his hand and said, “This is a treasure from the World Tree that bloomed and fell thirteen years ago; it’s too tacky to give you gold coins. This is great—it can extend your life for more than ten years without a doubt.”

“But we are inherently immortal.” Suel smirked; he didn’t think it would work in reality.

In the game, they were inherently immortal, so eating this stuff seemed to be useless.

Ans continued, “The extension of lifespan refers not only to the body but also to the soul. I can see that your souls aren’t substantially strong, and only three of you have stronger souls. If my guess is correct, your bodies are indeed indestructible, but your souls may not be.”

Hmm… Everyone’s expressions changed somewhat.
