"That's right, Big Sister Chiwil, you've already forced it into a dead end. That Purple Golden Mink was most likely scared to death by you and Evan. It has nothing to do with them, so why should we give the Purple Golden Mink to them?" Eva, who had just alighted from the horse-drawn carriage, chimed in. She looked at Evan lovingly, and wanted to get closer to him.
All of the mercenaries turned to Evan and Eva with a hint of surprise in their eyes. They had all witnessed what had just happened, and Eva's argument was a little unreasonable. After the Purple Golden Mink had gone berserk, even Chiwil's boomerang wouldn't be able to catch up to it. On top of that, Evan's magic posed no threat to it, so how could it have been scared to death by them?
However, Eva was the little sister of the Rose Mercenary Squad, and she had always been spoiled by everyone. Furthermore, she was the only healer in the mercenary squad, so everyone had more or less received treatment from her. As such, they didn't know what to say and could only turn to Chiwil.
As for Evan's argument, they were indeed the ones who had chased the Purple Golden Mink out, but it had indeed been scared to death by the orange kitten. By scaring the Purple Golden Mink to death, they had actually saved Eva. Chiwil must have considered this, which was why he had given all of the Purple Golden Mink to Meg. However, he didn't think that Eva would be so ungrateful after being saved, and the atmosphere became a little awkward.
Mag, who was about to say something courteous, glanced at Evan and Eva. This pair of adulterous couple were really birds of a feather. The woman was a scumbag, and the man was a scumbag. They were a match made in heaven.
If it weren't for the fact that he and Amy were in the carriage, the Purple Golden Mink definitely wouldn't have let Eva go. Perhaps no one else had noticed, but he had clearly seen what had happened. Evan clearly had an opportunity to attack the Purple Golden Mink. Even if he couldn't trap it, as a 3rd-tier magic caster, he would definitely be able to disrupt its progress and buy more time for his teammates.
However, he did not do that. Instead, he stood on the tree and watched with a smile on his face.
If there were only the two of them in the carriage, then Meg would only think that this fellow was a narrow-minded fellow. However, there was also this brainless fan in the carriage who worshipped him in every possible way. Yet, he had the attitude of watching a show and wanted to watch her die with him? He was simply inhumane.
And now, this scumbag couple actually wanted to snatch the spoils of war?
If it were just Chiwil and the others, perhaps Meg would've offered to split the fur of this mutant Purple Golden Mink according to how much effort they put in. This was a very common method of cooperation among mercenaries.
But now, he changed his mind. Instead of giving it to these two guys, he might as well feed it to the dogs. In any case, he wouldn't leave any meat for them.
"Miss Flat-Chest, do you want to eat this big rat? I didn't think that you'd be so trustworthy. Ugly Duckling caught this big rat, and you want to eat it. I can ask Father to skin it for you. You can try it raw and tell me if it tastes good. " Amy looked at Eva's expectant eyes, and shook Meg's hand as she said, "Father, let's give this big rat to Miss Flat-Chest."
"I … I …" Eva stared at Amy, and she didn't know how to respond.
"You're just rearing a magic beast that's the nemesis of the Purple Golden Mink, and it's a little thing that hasn't even been weaned yet. In terms of power, do you think you can even touch a single hair on the Purple Golden Mink? Furthermore, if it weren't for our Rose Mercenary Squad, you wouldn't even be able to see the Purple Golden Mink, let alone hunt it down. You should know how much effort you put in, so do you really dare to take this Purple Golden Mink fur? " Evan turned to Meg as he spoke in a cold voice. His handsome face had darkened slightly, and he was leaning forward slightly to exert pressure on Meg with the wand in his hand.
Chiwil's brows furrowed, and he was just about to say something when Meg took a step forward. He looked at Evan with a mocking smile, and said, "How much effort did you put in? The Purple Golden Mink was scared to death by Amy's Ugly Duckling, and prior to that, it hadn't been injured in the slightest. It had just entered a berserk state, and its speed was far superior to everyone's, so it had already escaped from the encirclement. Even though you took advantage of the opportunity to kill it, what does that have to do with you, whose attack was even blocked by a Purple Golden Mink? Do you think you've put in a lot of effort just because you were standing on a tree and watching your teammates almost die at the hands of the Purple Golden Mink? "
Evan's expression changed drastically upon hearing this, and he reflexively took a step back as a hint of panic flashed through his eyes.
Evan's face had also paled significantly. The image of him standing on a tree with a smile on his face was still deeply etched in her mind. Now that Meg had exposed this to her, all of the self-consolation she had used to try and comfort herself instantly paled in comparison, and a hint of confusion appeared in her eyes as she looked at Evan.
All of the mercenaries' expressions also changed upon hearing this. The situation had been quite tense, and no one had paid any attention to what had just happened. Thinking back, Evan did indeed have many opportunities to stop the Purple Golden Mink, but he hadn't done anything during that time. If what Meg had said was true, then what was Evan trying to do? They didn't dare to think too deeply into this matter as trust was the lifeblood of a mercenary group. If they couldn't even trust their teammates, then that would definitely be fatal.
Meg looked at Evan with a mocking smile on his face. Meg Alex's forte lay in battle, and his specialty was verbal attacks. The lowest level of verbal attacks was hurling insults at one's enemies, and Meg disdained to do something like that. Killing someone in an elegant and unconventional manner was a true skill.
For a team, trust in teammates was a very important thing. If there was someone hiding in the team who could stab you in the back when you needed help the most, it would be even harder to defend against a strong enemy. It was a big taboo.
Chiwil's expression also became quite grave, and a contemplative look appeared in her eyes. She had been wondering why Evan hadn't intervened when they were pursuing the Purple Golden Mink, but it seemed that Meg had seen something, and Eva's reaction seemed to confirm this as well. As such, her heart became quite heavy.
