Rhett= warrior, boer= ranger, ella=priest, eddie= magician. Just to clear any confusion

___________Why am I still seeing Rhett’s stupid face even after death? Eddie opened his eyes and the first thought that came to his mind was this. It wasn’t Eddie’s fault since the Sub-dragon’s claws had pierced his entire abdomen. Eddie knew that he would not survive, but he didn’t want to become the Sub-dragon’s excrement. So, he had torn the teleportation scroll apart and retreated back to camp.

Lu Heng saw that the magician lying on the ground had opened his eyes and asked in a warm voice, “Are you all right?”

Rhett realized that Eddie was awake and was thrilled to hold Eddie in his arms. The hard armor on his body made Eddie’s nose sore and a rush of heat came out. Eddie pushed aside the big silly man holding him, wiped his nose, after discovering his nose bleeding, angrily reprimanded: “Have your brains been kicked out by the armored unicorn?”

Rhett rarely spoke back, but he did now with a thick nasal voice: “Eddie, you almost died, you know?”

Eddie affirmed that he was indeed on the verge of death, and now his body felt a bit strange, and even some of the hidden injuries from his long adventure career had disappeared. When he looked around, he saw Ella bowing to the white-robed priest, who had always been with their employer, and he knew that the white-robed priest had saved him.

“Thank you for saving my life.” Eddie made a magician’s salute and took out a badge. “The Dark Red Pagoda will remember your kindness this time.”

Lu Heng smiled back and took the badge. Eddie’s origin was not simple. The personal inscription of Huoge Holy Saint was engraved on the dark red badge. And the people who could obtain this badge, other than his students could only be his relatives. The students of Houge Holy Saint were at least on the level of grand magician 1, which Eddie obviously was not.

I heard that the Houge Holy Saint had a gifted grandson. Lu Heng guessed the identity of Eddie in his heart. Originally, he intended to erase the memories of the Blood wolf team, now it seemed that changing them a little would be better instead.

The other two of the Blood Wolf team were not too badly injured. They were healed under Ella’s care. Everyone sorted out their emotions and finally had a long-awaiteddinner when night came.

Ionas unceremoniously tore off the grilled, oily and enticing chicken wings, and having tasted them, stuffed them to Lu Heng: “Although they are a little worse than the Dragon Eagle wings, they barely pass.”

After that, he ripped off the wings from several birds and feathered demonic beasts on the shelf and piled them on the plate in front of Lu Heng.

Lu Heng looked at Ionas staring at him with burning eyes. He had an expectant look. He smiled in his heart. He took a bite from the area other person had eaten from. “It tastes really good.”

Ionas suddenly felt that his face was a little hot. He uncomfortably moved his eyes away, but quickly turned back and grabbed Lu Heng’s baked wings. “I think this is the best one to eat. I want to eat this one. All the other dishes are for you.”

Lu Heng looked at him with a smile and then continued to eat.

After meal. Rhett and Eddie came over.

Rhett hesitated for a moment and finally said, “I’m very sorry, Sirs, our team is not strong enough to continue this mission. So we will refund the deposit in full and compensate you for the same amount of gold coins and we request you to suspend the mission.”

Although he was so poor that he was about to lose his pants, nothing could match his companion’s life. Rhett decided to sell the material he had intended to use to strengthen his weapons when he returned home, and he should be able to gather the compensation money.

“The next trip is really too dangerous. We had planned to suspend the commission. The deposit and compensation are not needed.” Lu Heng said, “In exchange, Master Eddie can tell us the whole story.”

Next, Eddie’s words confirmed Lu Heng’s speculation. Just when the spatial door had opened, Lu Heng had felt the atmosphere of ancient temples.

According to Eddie, when a companion was observing the surrounding terrain at a high altitude, he suddenly noticed that there was a faint view of tall stone pillars in the depths of the woods. The three men headed in that direction, but other than the sub-dragon found nothing. Later, Eddie had led sub-dragon in the opposite direction and went into the ruins in a hurry, but before he could inspect the surrounding environment, the sub-dragon caught up with him. Afterwards, sub-dragon tore open his abdomen with a single claw. Eddie rushed to tear the scroll and fled back. Therefore, no more specifics of the situation could be provided to Lu Heng.

“Then stop the commission. The deposit doesn’t need to be returned.” Lu Heng got the information he wanted and agreed to Rhett’s request to suspend the mission.

“What is the opinion of His Excellency Ionas?” Although Eddie knew that the white-robed priest was at least a bishop of the Pope of Light, the employer who was paying was Ionas after all. It was up to him to suspend the commission.

But Ionas held Lu Heng’s waist from behind and laid his chin on the shoulder of his predecessor in a lazy manner: “I’m sleepy. Go to bed after talking.”
