In fact, other than the Witch's Legacy, Kieran couldn't think of anything else that would drive Broker to do such a thing.
Or rather, it was Broker's plan from the start.
He didn't want to give up on the title dungeon and the Witch's Legacy.
As for Broker getting the [Blade of the Daybreaker (sub-scroll)] and the information about the Witch's Legacy?
Kieran never doubted the strength of a player with a Unique Title.
More so, the secret bazaar and all those other properties had proven Broker's capabilities.
Kieran sorted out his thoughts and told Lawless and Starbeck about his guesses without hiding anything.
Lawless could be considered as his closest friend in the game, so there was no need to hide anything from him.
Starbeck might be a coward but he wasn't useless during crucial moments. Besides, the upcoming mission was closely related to him, so it was necessary to tell him about it.
"This bastard is really greedy!
Isn't he afraid of losing everything and getting nothing in the end? "
Lawless grunted when he heard Kieran's explanation.
"That's why I'm even more worried.
Since Broker dared to do such a thing, he must have something to rely on. "
Kieran said slowly.
Kieran would never underestimate anyone, especially someone like Broker.
From other people's point of view, Broker's way of starting a two-front battle was arrogant and conceited but from Kieran's point of view, he was very confident in himself.
And it wasn't good news at all.
"What are you going to do?
Why don't we make a move on Extremus and Darde the Titan first?
Both of them aren't good people anyway. "
Lawless suggested.
"Do you believe that Broker would love for us to do that? Be it Extremus or Darde the Titan, both of them aren't easy opponents to deal with. Without a certain level of advantage, we won't be able to deliver a lethal blow. Once the two of them escape, it will be a battle to the death."
Kieran smiled and shook his head before continuing.
"Besides …"
"We don't have enough time!
"[Blade of the Daybreaker] dungeon cooldown is over, but we can't be sure if Broker's men are still inside."
If he is still inside, the longer we drag this out, the more disadvantageous it will be for us. Even the impact of me bringing Starbeck to complete a dungeon will be eliminated by him, all our efforts will be wasted. "
"That's right, there's also a high chance that Broker's men couldn't do anything after the cooldown of [Blade of the Daybreaker] reached 10/10, but it's just a high chance, not a certainty."
"There are too many unknowns and dangers in uncertain matters!"
So, Starbeck and I will start [Blade of the Daybreaker] dungeon right away.
Kieran explained his reasons.
Lawless was convinced by Kieran's reasoning.
Kieran was not sure what Broker would do next.
If it was Kieran's second hypothesis, then everything would be fine. However, if it was the first hypothesis, then once it dragged on for too long, it would really be a dead end.
Thus, it was self-evident which of the two hypotheses to choose.
"That damn cunning merchant!"
"He always makes me feel like I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place!"
Lawless cursed.
"This is Broker's style."
Kieran then looked at Starbeck.
"Starbeck, do you have any suggestions?"
As a teammate in another dungeon run, Kieran wouldn't ignore Starbeck's suggestions, he also hoped that Starbeck wouldn't bring up anything that he didn't think of.
"I-I … Nothing."
"I'll listen to you."
It seemed like Starbeck wanted to say something but when Lawless looked at him, Starbeck's eyes widened.
Nervousness filled his heart again.
The timid Starbeck shook his head right away.
Kieran knew Starbeck wasn't telling the truth since he was familiar with him.
However, with Lawless around, Starbeck wouldn't dare to say anything.
All he could do was wait until Lawless wasn't around before asking.
"Then let's hurry up and prepare."
Kieran then counted his rewards and checked the dungeon rating.

…
"A special reward after the rating reaches a certain level?"
Kieran glanced over the reward and his heart was filled with anticipation.
What will it be?
Will it be a high tier item?
My luck isn't that bad.
Maybe I'll draw something special! '
Kieran thought in his heart and started to draw.
The drawing process was simple, there was no roulette or anything like that, the prize would appear in his hand directly.
A moment later, Kieran felt the weight in his hand and eagerly looked at the item in his hand. It was a palm-sized, grayish-white stone item with irregular edges. There were still traces of explosion and tremendous force pressing on it.
After staring at it for a while, Kieran tossed it to the corner of the garage.
"2567, why did you throw the stone?"
Lawless, who was asking his friends for information, looked up.
Likewise, Starbeck was also looking at the scene curiously.
"Nothing."
Kieran's face didn't change, he said in his usual tone and quickly walked to the other side of the garage, away from where the stone was tossed.
After making sure Lawless and Starbeck wouldn't see him, Kieran covered his chest with his hand.
It was then that Kieran realized having two hearts wasn't necessarily a good thing.
Once he felt heartache, it would be doubled.
Huu, Huu, Huu!
