Chapter 660 The Coming Of Destruction (1/2)
In the following days, Gao Peng brought Moneymaker along to make a clean sweep of all the treasure in the treasure chamber. By closing the door of the last room, Gao Peng had lived up to the good habit of closing doors when entering and exiting rooms.
In the few days that Gao Peng swept through the entire treasure chamber, the treasure found wasn't considered a lot, but not very little either. Many of the rooms were empty, with nothing left, whereas in some of the rooms, the treasure preserved within had lost its spirituality over the years, turning completely into a pile of rotted wood or scrap metal.
”With this harvest, my fortune is probably no worse than those top tribes,” Gao Peng said while carrying Silly in his arms and petting its smooth belly. Silly was so comfortable being held and petted by Gao Peng that it began making weird noises through its mouth.
Only Gao Peng knew how great this harvest was. Initially, the greatest difference between him and the big tribes was their fortunes and backing, as the big tribes had rich supplies. Fortune was simply treasure that had been handed down from generation to generation or hidden cards that they held unbeknownst to others.
Even if only one top treasure was harvested in 100 years, that would still mean an accumulation of a hundred treasures in 10,000 years. Of course, in a strict sense, it couldn't be calculated this way. However, there wasn't much difference on the whole.
While sometimes, certain treasure would be of no use at the time, as long as it was accumulated, it was still part of the fortune, and could quite possibly be of great use one day. Naturally, Gao Peng had also accumulated many materials for evolution this time.
Right as Gao Peng was pondering, the surrounding void distorted and Gao Peng, as well as his familiars, could only feel the surrounding imagery flickering as they were transmitted to the entrance in a flash. There were a lot of people standing near the entrance, and all of them stared at Gao Peng.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please clickfor visiting.
Gao Peng felt very awkward. Is there anything on my face?
”Why are you all staring at me?” Gao Peng laughed.
”No particular reason.” Those who stood nearest shook their heads, and some even took a step back.
A short youngster with a large nose and big eyes complained to Qing Yunnan, ”Sir, that's him. He's the one who snatched our maps in the secret border.”
”I was just borrowing them. In any event, I didn't even look at them for free. Didn't I say that I would help you all build a base station for free?” Gao Peng sighed.
”How are you such a grumpy young man? We just borrowed your maps for a look. I can't believe you're complaining to him like a little b*tch.” Gao Peng was speechless, since he thought that something serious had happened.
Upon hearing Gao Peng call him a little b*tch, the young man who had snitched pulled a face as if he had suffered some sort of tremendous indignity. He glared at Gao Peng with his fists clenched tightly.
”I even thought of the perfect lines for you. What goes around, comes around, and the world changes constantly. Don't bully a young man who's poor.” Gao Peng chuckled.
”I… I'm not poor! My grandfather is a chief!” The young man mustered up his courage to respond.
Qing Yunnan furrowed his brows and said, ”All right, let's just leave the matter here.” Qing Yunnan had a lot of authority, so since he had spoken, the others naturally kept quiet.
After all, Gao Peng wasn't a member of their tribe, hence Qing Yunnan wouldn't try to control him. He merely turned to look at Gao Peng, hesitant to speak.
”Come on. Let's head back to the tribe.” Qing Yunnan turned and left without asking the others if there had been a good harvest.
Qing Yunnan walked in front, followed by the others. The monster trainers gathered together excitedly, discussing the treasures they had each gained, the monsters they had seen in the secret border, and all kinds of peculiar situations they had encountered.
There were also some of them that appeared sad and covered their faces as they wept. This was because some of their companions hadn't come back and would stay forever in the secret border. There were some that were happy and others that grieved.
”ROAR!” Boom. The air echoed with a deafening growl.
