Chapter 114 - Daylight Robbery (3)
Chapter 114: Daylight Robbery (3)
“I guess a huge amount of mid-level ores will be delivered here tomorrow. You should work hard to increase your levels and fight for a breakthrough!”
The minds of the other three shook after hearing that. Mid-level ores, those that couldn’t be found at all in the three-star area of the Shiny Plains. And now, the Red Maple Mercenary Team had four! A three-star group having four mid-level mineral veins, this was something that would make the four-star groups extremely jealous!
The Red Maple Mercenary Team didn’t even have to mine the mid-level ores from the four veins themselves. Someone would deliver the ores to them for free. This would undoubtedly make other people madly jealous. However, even though they were jealous, who would dare to touch these four mineral veins in the five-star area?
As the level assessment got closer, the Red Maple Mercenary Team became more popular in the Mercenary Union, but also seemed more mysterious. Which level could those batches of mid-level ores sent to the Red Maple Mercenary Team help them reach? Would they return to their original level? Or would they surpass their original level?!
During this period of time, the Red Maple Mercenary Team became more low-profile. The important mission of the members of the Red Maple Mercenary Team was to shut themselves in. Everyone knew what they were doing and people were curious about how powerful the strength of the Red Maple Mercenary Team would be when the level assessment arrived. The Red Maple Mercenary Team had been very calm these days and nobody tried to do any evil tricks anymore, because those who wanted to were having a headache right now.
“Fuck, are those Commanders of the five-star groups fools? They used four mid-level mineral veins in exchange for the ultimate ores!” Everyone in the building of the Evil Wolf Mercenary Group knew that their three Commanders had been in a bad mood lately. Their angry roar came out from time to time, no, it had already started right now.
“Alright, Greedy Wolf, stop shouting. We made a bad shot this time. I’ve never thought the Red Maple Mercenary Team would be so difficult to deal with!” The man with faded scars sat there with a gloomy look.
“We spread the rumor thinking to eliminate them in a fight, but it helped them instead!” The Commander in the main seat, who acted like a dog, said. Thinking of those four mineral veins, he was so jealous that he was about to go crazy. The Evil Wolf Mercenary Group fought to this point and still had only two mineral veins. They even had to be worried about other people preying on them from time to time. And now, great, Yun Feng’s four mineral veins were all given by someone. What the hell was that?
“What should we do now? With those mid-level ores, we won’t be able to beat them!” Greedy Wolf sat in the chair with a furious look. It was really difficult for him to digest the current situation of the Red Maple Mercenary Team. His stomach was full of anger when he thought about it.
“We’ve already submitted the list. We can’t change it anymore. We miscalculated when we arranged our team for the challenge from the Red Maple Mercenary Team.” The man with faded scars over his face frowned. Thinking about how careless they were, he was extremely regretful. The Evil Wolf Mercenary Group was planning to exert themselves to try to be promoted to the five-star level this time. So, even though there were two level-7 masters in the lineup for the battle with the Red Maple Mercenary Team, these two level-7 warriors would truly be a bit unreliable, calculating the power of the Red Maple Mercenary Team after they received the ores.
“They’re going to enhance their strength? Fuck, can they really increase by a level in ten days even after absorbing the power in all the ores?” Greedy Wolf scolded. The faces of the other two also darkened. The absorption of energy in the ores was already slow and those at a high level were even slower. If someone at level 7 wanted to continue increasing his level with the ores, it would depend on the quality and the quantity of the ores. In order for a level-7 warrior to reach level 8 in a short time, only high-level ores could do so.
“Right now, we can only work on our weapons…” The Commander of the Evil Wolf Mercenary Group whispered. And yet, thinking that the Red Maple Mercenary Team had a mage, even a level-5 mage, as well, his heart couldn’t help but feel suffocated. He had miscalculated, he had miscalculated…
“If we lose, our level will drop! We put in a lot of hard work to climb up to the four-star level. I can’t resign myself to being downgraded!” Greedy Wolf yelled again, while the remaining two looked bad. They originally thought they could beat Yun Feng easily. And now, they didn’t have much confidence left and even thought they might lose.
“If we can’t lose, we must think of a way to keep that mage out of the battlefield…” The man with faded scars on his face mumbled as he looked at the man with a scar and the Commander. A glint of ferocity flashed through the eyes of the three of them.
In these ten days, a huge amount of mid-level ores were delivered to the door of the Red Maple Mercenary Team every day. The mid-level ores that the mercenaries of the Red Maple Mercenary Team received could be stacked into a small mountain and they all smiled from ear to ear. When people outside saw such a situation, they were dumbfounded. Their feelings could be summed up with three words: jealousy, envy and resentment.
The few leaders of the Red Maple Mercenary Team were all shutting themselves in to practice and not going out at all. There was no way for people outside to ask about the truth at all. They just thought that the Red Maple Mercenary Team was more and more mysterious. As the level assessment got closer, people’s heated discussion about the Red Maple Mercenary Team came wave after wave. Which level would they reach? This was what everyone cared about.
The five participants, except for Yun Feng, were all working hard to enhance their levels during this period of time, while the other mercenaries of the Red Maple Mercenary Team were all delighted after getting one mid-level ore each!
Yun Feng counted the approaching days and didn’t know why there was a hint of anxiousness in her mind. “Kid, knowing the temper of the Evil Wolf Mercenary Group, you must be fully prepared.” The ancestor’s reminder suddenly enlightened Yun Feng. Right, those guys in the Evil Wolf Mercenary Group, who didn’t blink when they robbed and killed people, would definitely think of all possible ways to stop the Red Maple Mercenary Team from beating them. They couldn’t make a cunning scheme in the Mercenary Union anymore, so they would surely find another channel and the most effective way for them to weaken the combat strength of the Red Maple Mercenary Team was to keep her out of the battlefield!
Are they going to sneak attack me? Yun Feng thought. She then denied her thought. The Evil Wolf Mercenary Group wouldn’t dig their own graves by sneak attacking in the Mercenary Union. Then, how would they keep her out of the battlefield? If they weren’t going to do anything on her, it would be on… her father!
Yun Feng’s expression changed abruptly. Her brother Yun Sheng was already at Masang School of Magic right now. With the capability of the Evil Wolf Mercenary Group, they wouldn’t dare to make a move on Masang School of Magic. Then, there wouldn’t be anyone else they could use to threaten her, other than her father who was still in Chunfeng Town!
Yun Feng closed her eyes and gave it a thought. The dark red Ring of Contract appeared in her hand. “Little Fire, come out!” Following a deep shout, a beam of dark red light shot out and landed on the ground, turning into a giant wolf with an elegant body. The moment it appeared, the temperature immediately rose to a high degree.
