Chapter 179: All About Greed
Translator: UdongEditor: EbonyFrost/Udong
”So powerful?!” Qian Jin secretly marveled! He hadn't completely mastered the [Dividing Metal Multi-Chops] yet! He couldn’t imagine how formidable a force it would be once he were to master the [Thousand Men Five Strikes].
He didn’t stop for a second while he enjoyed the happy thoughts of the days to come! Separating his arms, the index fingers accordingly penetrated right through the middle of the two Belia Demons’ eyebrows!
With the unannounced help from Qian Jin, the tide of battle began to tilt quickly! He was not holding back even a little bit and every strike sent out carried the strength of a Level 9 Demon Fighter! Anywhere he went left a pile of broken skulls of the Belia Demons.
The Demons screamed one after the other, which distracted Bosc quite a bit! Just at this moment, a dragon spear directly pierced his neck and with a brutal twist, his head was wrung off, causing a spectacular spray of blood!
Seeing the primitively cruel image, the Belias Demons become uninterested in the battle all of a sudden. They tried to flee but were all killed! The Mercenaries snatched victory out of defeat!
”What an extraordinary weapon!” Duren Burg lifted the spear over his head and waved a few times! He strode over to Qian Jin. ”Buddy, thank you for such a great Warrior Weapon! It is way better than mine at home! What can I do to repay you?”
He grabbed Qian Jin’s hand and secretly slipped him two gems; the Stars Ancient Gold and the Son of Earth!
”I say guys...” Duren Burg stood in front of Qian Jin and walked to the mercenaries with his arms open,”We won! We beat the Demons!”
The Mercenaries looked down at the dead bodies and couldn’t believe they could defeat so many Demons with a numerically inferior force! They had expected certain death but ended up only losing three comrades including Boss Leong and a groom.
Without attracting anyone’s attention, Qian Jin put the two gems into the Warrior Dimension behind his back! It was the first time he had found Duren Burg to be so thoughtful! The prevalent thought surely was to survive when trapped in a life-or-death situation! But after they managed that, the mercenaries would inevitably be intrigued by the gems! They couldn’t kill these mercenaries just for the two items! The best way was to hide the treasures and make it so they could never be found!
”We won!” The Mercenaries hugged each other after the deadly conflict! Some even shed tears!
After the cheering and applauding, the Mercenaries calmed down a little bit and immediately someone began to look around on the ground! Although they had no idea what Stars Ancient Gold was, they firmly believed it was nothing but ordinary since it cost 50,000 golden coins along with the Son of Earth.
The 40 mercenaries searched every nook and cranny for the gems! Duren Burg also pretended to search with them. From time to time he would say something as if he were talking to himself but the voice was loud enough to be heard; ”Where was it? I saw him throw it here! How did it disappear just like this? It’s too dark here! The torch is not bright enough!”
The Mercenaries sighed and kept looking holding a torch! They looked in a determined manner!
Qian Jin walked over to the wooden box with gold bars and took them out on the ground one by one! This move quickly attracted the attention of other mercenaries!
Instead of wasting time on the teeny tiny item in the grass, it was better to discuss how to share these gold bars! ”How about we split them?” One whispered a proposal, which was instantly seconded by other mercenaries!
”Keep dreaming!” A powerful voice broke the echo; ”It wouldn’t have taken us so much effort without you! But without us? It would have been the Belia Demons who are now dead to stand here and gather up the loot!”
The harmonious picture suddenly fell into pieces! The mercenaries stared at the gold bars in a weird silence! 500 gold bars! That equaled 50,000 gold coins! They could live in luxury for a long time if they split them up!
”But we have also contributed!” A mercenary broke the silence. ”Without our escort, they would have long been robbed by the horse thieves! The Black Wind Bandit Group retreated partly due to our presence! It is reasonable we... ”
Qian Jin frowned at this impudent talker! From the triumph of Duren Burg, he knew for sure that a great warrior needed not only Warrior Power but also a good weapon! The two gems were far from enough! He wanted these gold bars for quality materials in the future!
These mercenaries put forth little strength in the vain hope they could get most of the rewards? Qian Jin sneered, ”It is indeed reasonable if you had contributed! But, the fact is, you could have lost your lives if not for us! And now you even want to take the majority of gold bars? To be honest, I had planned giving one-fifth to you initially! After all, life is hard since you're all risking your heads! But now...you get 10! Take it and fu*k off!”
The Mercenaries were stunned! They couldn’t believe the always nice, easy-going Qian Jin who sometimes could be deemed as soft should say such uncivil words!
