"Fallen undead warrior, heed the call of the dark emissary and reveal your existence!" Han Shuo suddenly chanted an incantation midway down the tunnel.
An ordinary skeletal warrior appeared in the tunnel as Han Shuo's incantation fell. Han Shuo immediately gathered his mental strength and issued a command when he saw the skeletal warrior appear — steal the items.
This skeletal warrior wasn't the Little Skull that Han Shuo had refined with his magical yuan. Its speed and strength were significantly inferior to the Little Skull's, and its bones creaked as it moved.
Within the Babylon Academy of Magic and Force, the pitch-black little skeleton with seven bone spurs had caused too much of a commotion. If others knew that this Little Skull had been summoned by Han Shuo, there would surely be a series of troublesome matters. Therefore, Han Shuo didn't dare summon the Little Skull at this time.
"Everyone hurry up, or else the items will all be taken by others!" Eirinn from the light major was among those left behind. When she saw that Han Shuo's group was charging down, she immediately rushed over with a shout.
On the necromancy major's side, Fanny, Lisa, and the others were first startled when they saw that Han Shuo had summoned skeletal warriors. They immediately reacted and started summoning skeletal warriors with delighted expressions on their faces.
Suddenly, more than ten skeletal warriors were summoned by Fanny, Lisa, and the others. Under the urging of their mental strength, these skeletal warriors reached out with their bony hands and picked up the enormous bags on the ground.
The items in the wolf riders' bags had all been looted. Now that these orc wolf riders were dead, they naturally became ownerless items. Of course, they belonged to whoever grabbed them first. The skeletal warriors on Han Shuo's side, who had been extremely weak to begin with, finally showed their usefulness this time. Although the skeletal warriors moved slowly, each of them grabbed a bag in the end.
As the host, Han Shuo, Fanny, Lisa, and the others naturally wouldn't be idle either. They all grabbed a bag each. Han Shuo even grabbed four bags, a satisfied smile on his face.
Han Shuo's group had taken eighty percent of the items left behind by the wolf riders, and the other twenty percent had been taken by the others. The various weapons, armor, and medicinal ingredients in the town of Drol were all expensive items. If they were sold in the Empire, they would surely receive generous rewards.
After ordering the skeletal warriors to line up side by side, Han Shuo looked at Fanny and said with a smile, "Master Fanny, with these items and our gains in the Dark Forest, I think that our necromancy major will be able to impress the school authorities when we return to the Academy."
Fanny was also in an exceedingly good mood at this moment. She had long since forgotten Han Shuo's previous rudeness. Her face was full of joy as she flicked a glance at Han Shuo with her bright eyes, saying softly, "Not necessarily. These items belong to the shops in the town of Drol. Although the owners of the shops in the town of Drol have either fled or died, if the Empire were to learn of the origins of these items, they would surely confiscate all of them."
Fanny's worries weren't without reason. Han Shuo thought for a moment and suddenly remembered that he had met Fabian in the Dark Forest. When the two had parted ways, Fabian had left a card for Han Shuo so that Han Shuo could find him to do business. Fabian was a member of the Empire's Bast Merchant Guild. If he could find him, he should have an appropriate method to deal with this matter.
When his thoughts travelled here, Han Shuo smiled confidently at Fanny and said, "Master Fanny, you don't need to worry. As long as we can safely return to the Empire, I have a way to deal with these items. There shouldn't be any flaws left behind."
Fanny looked at Han Shuo in surprise and then shook her head, saying with emotion, "Brian, I find that I can't see through you more and more. Just how many secrets are you hiding on your body? How do you have a way to deal with these items?"
Chuckling lightly, Han Shuo said, "We'll talk about these things later. I think that what we should do now is to consider how to leave this place and how to quickly return to the Empire."
While Han Shuo and Fanny were talking, Beacher's group, as well as Gene Buck's group from the necromancy major, had already returned from the distance. From the relieved expressions on their faces, Han Shuo knew that the orcs had most likely been killed.
Indeed, when Beacher's group arrived, they immediately said proudly, "Don't worry everyone, none of those orcs escaped. We can finally relax for the time being."
Beacher was halfway through his words when he suddenly looked around in surprise, exclaiming, "Eh? What's going on?"
Apart from the corpses of the orc wolf riders and giant wolves, all the bags had been divided up by those who had stayed behind. In particular, Han Shuo and Fanny's side, a row of skeletal warriors each holding a large bag appeared even more eye-catching.
Fanny was a bit embarrassed and opened her mouth, not knowing what to say. In the end, she grew anxious and couldn't help but glare at Han Shuo, indicating for Han Shuo to respond.
Taking a few steps forward as if nothing had happened, Han Shuo didn't have the slightest bit of awkwardness on his face. He put down the two bags on his body and called out to the mercenaries and mages who had just returned from the distance with unfamiliar faces. He said with a smile, "These are all spoils of war, brave warriors come and pick some. We'll be going our separate ways soon, but we've just fought off the orcs together. Let these things be mementos of our battle."
"Alright, alright!"
The ten or so adventurers who had returned all cheered in unison when they heard Han Shuo's words. All of them ran over excitedly and began to pick out the goods in the bags with practiced movements.
Beacher and the other light major students had originally planned on joining in, but when they saw that Eirinn and the others also had bags filled with supplies in their hands, they started and walked towards Eirinn after a moment of surprise.
"Young man, you're a really good friend. If you need our Battle Wolves mercenary band in the future, feel free to ask."
"Heh heh, I'm very happy to make friends with you. If you need any medicines made in the future, you can come find me."
"… …"
These people chatted with smiles on their faces as they picked out the goods. One by one, cards with contact details fell into Han Shuo's hands.
"Master Fanny, why are you giving those things to them? What's Brian doing?" Necromancy major student Athena looked at Han Shuo's open bag with a pained expression and huffed angrily.
"His actions are completely correct. If we swallow all these goods, these people won't benefit at all. They'll definitely report this matter to the Empire. Perhaps they'll even have thoughts of robbing us in their anger. We'll be in big trouble then.
Now that Brian has taken out a small portion for them to choose from, it's to drag them into the water and stuff everyone's mouths. They don't have space rings and can't summon skeletal warriors to do manual labor like us. They won't be able to take away much of the goods at all. In this way, the biggest beneficiaries will still be us. He can even win the friendship of these adventurers. Brian is really getting more and more powerful now! " Fanny's beautiful eyes had been focused on Han Shuo, who was chatting merrily with the adventurers, as she explained to the clueless Athena beside her.
"He's getting more and more mysterious now. I don't even know where he learned all this random knowledge from, and his knowledge is actually quite useful!" Lisa looked at Han Shuo and thought of the secret to breast enlargement that Han Shuo had taught her. She couldn't help but sigh softly with emotion.
"Alright, since everyone's chosen their items, let's part ways here. If there's anything I need to trouble you with in the future, I won't hold back, haha!" On the other side, Han Shuo was laughing and joking with everyone as if they were close friends. The four large pockets on his body were basically all empty now.
These mercenaries and adventurers had more or less gotten what they needed, and their gazes when looking at Han Shuo were exceedingly pleasing to the eye. Everyone exchanged some pleasantries in the end and left one by one. On the other side, Beacher and the others came to Fanny's side to say their thanks and also left with the goods.
When only Han Shuo's group remained, Gene finally said with annoyance, "If I'd known earlier, I would've stayed as well. If we hadn't left, the pockets in the hands of the light major would've been ours again."
Fanny didn't express anything regarding Gene's annoyance at all. She suddenly felt at this moment that such a big person like him seemed to be even less intelligent than Han Shuo, and a sense of contempt rose in her heart for no reason.
"Right, what should we do now?" Fanny looked at Han Shuo and asked naturally.
Turning his head to look at the wide Niloran River, Han Shuo thought for a bit and said lowly, "There are some towering trees at the bottom of the canyon. We have all sorts of sharp weapons in our pockets, as well as some tough ropes. As long as we chop down some trees, we can quickly make wooden rafts and use them to cross the Niloran River and directly reach Balthazar City."
"Is that so? Then why didn't you tell the others just now?" Gene suddenly asked when he heard Han Shuo's words.
"What does it have to do with me if they want to leave? Not to mention that they can help us draw away the orc's attention after they leave. We'll be in less danger this way. Isn't that good? "Han Shuo smiled faintly and explained matter-of-factly.
When these words were spoken, Fanny, Gene, and the others started and inwardly sighed that the current Han Shuo was indeed different. It looked like he was already secretly scheming against others when he'd been talking cheerfully and wittily with them just now.
Gene, Buck, and Bella looked at each other and felt a chill in their hearts when they thought of how they'd targeted Han Shuo in the past.
