Looking at the mission prompt in front of him, Fangzheng felt helpless.
He had forgotten one thing. The requirement of the system mission was [Investigate and solve the secret incident at the Ice Summit]. In other words, this main mission was actually the same as Fina's mission. In other words, that strange flash was the main culprit. And now it seemed that ….. the Flower of Souls that he had just taken away was the "mastermind" behind this incident?
Although Sheyan cursed in his heart, in any case, this matter was solved satisfactorily. Come to think of it, if the source of this incident was this strange "Flower of Souls", the battle between Fangzheng's group and the shadow dragon was obviously unavoidable. After all, from the shadow dragon's point of view, it seemed to have come here for the "Flower of Souls". If Fangzheng wanted to solve this problem, it was naturally impossible for him not to have a conflict with it.
As for the reward …. Fangzheng could only say that it was passable.
If the exchange ratio of crystal energy and Dimension Points was adjusted to 1: 100, it would be more or less the same.
At the same time, the Dimensional Codex in Fangzheng's hand flashed and shone on the flower. The next moment, Fangzheng saw the flower disappear in front of him with a whoosh. At the same time, only a bottomless pit was left in front of him.
Could this be the origin of those strange flashes?
Fangzheng was a little surprised to see the pit that seemed to be hundreds of meters deep. He didn't expect that little flower to have a root comparable to a towering tree. It seemed that the little flower was indeed a little unusual.
When Fangzheng turned around and returned to the group, they seemed to have finished dividing the property left by the shadow dragon. The shadow dragon didn't leave a lot of property here. Perhaps because it was interrupted when it started to decorate its room, there were only a few gold coins and some exquisite artworks and magic items here. It could even be said that these things weren't very valuable to the girls, but it was enough to make them very excited.
Because this was their first adventure, and it was a souvenir obtained from a dragon's nest, even if it was just a tattered bronze ring, it was enough for these girls to carefully protect it as their own collection.
However, there seemed to be some problems with the division of the spoils this time. Everyone seemed to have objections to what they got. This was not because they were too greedy, but because … they were not greedy at all.
"I, I don't think I need to get so many treasures …"
Katie was the first to ask.
"I didn't fulfill my duty. Not only did I drag the team down, but I also put everyone in danger.... I, I don't think I deserve these rewards...."
"Me too …"
At this moment, the female Astrologer also had a dejected look on her face.
"If I had held on a little longer …"
"I think you seem to be mistaken about something."
Fangzheng couldn't help but shake his head as he looked at the dejected girls.
"To tell you the truth, based on the reports given to me by Nimf and Fina, you did a good job. Katie, you successfully stalled those monsters and put a lot of pressure on them at the beginning, which prevented our team from collapsing at the first moment. Miss M, your shooting also suppressed the monsters' further actions, allowing our plan to proceed smoothly. As for the problems after that … .that's not a big deal. You've just started your adventure, so mistakes are understandable. In other words, mistakes are also part of the adventure. Of course, some mistakes may put you and your teammates in danger, but this is something that even the most elite adventurers can't avoid. "
Having said that, Fangzheng spread his hands.
"Even a Prophecy Mage can be wrong about the future. Don't stop moving forward just because you've failed once or twice. In other words, you should be glad that you've failed, as it means that you still have room for improvement. As for these, they are naturally your rewards. You've put in your own effort for the team, so you should reap the rewards. "
In the end, under Fangzheng's persuasion, the girls shared the spoils of war. But there was actually nothing good among the spoils of war. Apart from a large pile of gold coins, the rest were mostly gems and some exquisite works of art, such as vases and so on. Of course, according to the usual standards of the dragons, these were all shiny things.
In the end, Jasmine chose a walking stick with flowers carved from white jade as the spoils of war. On the other hand, the Stonehammer Dwarves chose a sturdy shield. As for the gems, they were divided equally among Hayrien, Katie and the Astrologer. As the commander of the team, Fina only took most of the gold coins. According to Fina, she could donate the gold coins to the parish orphanage so that the orphans could live a better life. As for the other things, they were not of much significance to a priest, and they could easily attract unwanted attention.
Originally, Fangzheng and Nimf were not interested in this level of treasure, but as the hero who "banished the evil dragon," it would be unreasonable for him to not take anything. In the end, Fangzheng and Nimf also randomly picked a few diamonds and gems from these treasures as souvenirs.
At this point, everyone was happy. Fangzheng also took the opportunity to explain to the girls about the flashes of light. Of course, he did not directly say that this matter was related to the Flower of Souls. Instead, he directly framed the dragon, claiming that the flashes of light were produced when the dragon was building its nest.
No one had too many doubts about this, and the dead dragon naturally could not jump out of the graveyard and use its rotten vocal cords to accuse Fangzheng of framing it. When Fangzheng handed its body to Milune, even its vocal cords would probably cease to exist.
After that, the team left the dragon nest with satisfaction. The Stonehammer Dwarves had also promised to report everything they had done to the king. Although they did not achieve the great cause of slaying the dragon, they managed to drive away a dragon and solve the problem of the flashes that had been troubling the underground people for a long time. As long as they could get the approval of the Dwarven King, this mission would be considered complete.
But to everyone's surprise, not long after they left the dragon nest, they met a group of acquaintances whom they had never expected to meet.
"… I didn't expect to meet you here."
Looking at the people in front of him, Hex did not even have the strength to taunt them. His face was tired and his body was covered in blood.
"It seems that you were also attacked by those monsters … You're really lucky to be alive …."
"You're also here for the assessment mission?"
Looking at Hex in front of her, Hayrien's expression did not look too good. But when she saw the blood all over him and the traces of battle, her tone became less aggressive. Hayrien had personally experienced how terrifying those monsters were just now. Now that the other party had also fought against those monsters, in her view, these people were also her "comrades".
"Of course, I've had enough. Nothing has gone smoothly since I came here …."
While grumbling, Hanks glanced at Jasmine who was standing behind the crowd and looking around in boredom. Hmm, this trip wasn't a waste after all. At least I got to see the legendary Elf girl!
"Then I wish you all the best."
Since she had already completed the assessment mission, Hayrien of course had no interest in continuing to chat with the other party. She just greeted them and was about to turn around and leave with the others. Hex had no intention of chatting with Hayrien. He exchanged a look with Usain Bolt, who was next to him, and continued to lead their companions up the stairs. But at that moment, Fangzheng suddenly stretched out his hand and blocked their way.
"Um … Sir Knight?"
Looking at Fangzheng who blocked their way, Hex's heart trembled a little. Because of the fat sow's figure and the previous tough battle, she was furious and didn't follow them up the mountain. Otherwise, they would definitely be in big trouble now. But if Hex had a choice, of course he wouldn't want to have any conflict with this Great Knight who killed the heir of one of the strongest families in the Country of Saints. Although Hex considered himself an important figure in his family, what was the use of that? You only have one life. Even if your family is willing to avenge you in the future, you'll still be dead in the end!
Cherish your life!
"If you don't mind, can you tell me what your assessment mission is?"
"This …."
Hex didn't understand why Fangzheng was suddenly interested in their assessment mission, but he still forced himself to answer.
"Our mission is very simple. You just have to follow the employer's instructions and place something on the Snow Summit."
"Oh?"
Upon hearing this, Fangzheng pricked up his brows.
"Then, can you let me see what it is?"
"Mr. Fangzheng?"
Looking at Fangzheng's reaction, not only were Hex's group puzzled, but even Fina's group was also puzzled. After all, Fangzheng had always given off the impression that he didn't like to take the initiative to provoke others. Not to mention, Hex didn't have any conflict with them this time, so Fangzheng didn't need to ignore him.
But Fangzheng didn't care about their doubts. He just smiled and looked at Hex. He didn't want to have anything to do with these guys. But for some reason, when he saw this group of people just now, Fangzheng suddenly had a bad feeling, so for safety's sake, he stopped them and asked.
"This …."
Hearing Fangzheng's request, Hex looked at Usain Bolt awkwardly. Usain Bolt shook his head slightly, while Hex could only sigh.
"Of course, no problem."
As he spoke, Hex fished out a cloth bag from his waist. Inside was a fist-sized metal box. It looked very delicate, like a jewelry box.
"This is what the employer entrusted us with. We just need to place it on the Snow Summit … .in one of the places."
"What's inside?"
Fangzheng stared at the box. The moment Hex took it out, the bad premonition in his heart almost sounded an alarm!
"I don't know about that, sir. According to the rules, we can't open the employer's item without his permission."
"…. Nimf, come and check it."
Fangzheng pondered for a moment and gestured to the little angel beside him. Upon hearing her master's order, Nimf nodded. She walked forward and stared curiously at the box. After a moment, the little angel's expression changed!
