Sheyan glanced at Franklin and chuckled.
"This staff in exchange for a favor, how about it?"
Franklin knew that Sheyan and Reef had great backgrounds. Previously, when they joined hands to kill Yerna, their display of ferocity and craziness had left a deep impression on him. To be able to become a Growth-hunter, his eyesight was naturally high. He could tell that if not for the appearance of the elf, Yerna wouldn't have been able to escape death!
However, he still cautiously asked.
"What's the matter?"
Sheyan gently replied.
"I will hum a tune for you. Record it down, then perform it at a designated location. At that time, I believe someone will invite you to perform it again. You should be able to meet that newly promoted twilight elf there. Your mission is to help me pass a message to her."
Franklin curiously asked.
"What message?"
Sheyan quietly whispered a few words. Franklin's expression instantly turned sluggish. After a while, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"This …... mister, this isn't too good right?"
Sheyan stared straight into his eyes and said.
"The elf won't know the meaning of these words, what's not good about it?"
Franklin helplessly gazed at Sheyan. After pondering carefully, he opened his mouth as though he was about to agree. But he suddenly asked.
"But what if no one invites me to perform?"
Sheyan raised two fingers and said with certainty, "That's right.
"Two hours, you will perform for two hours at the designated location. Even if no one invites you, this staff is yours. It can be notarized through the realm. "
As Sheyan spoke, he even displayed the attributes of the staff for Franklin to see.
Franklin couldn't resist the temptation and gritted his teeth.
"Fine! But I'm not a genius, to be able to play a saxophone after hearing a few hum from a non-professional like you. Therefore, we have to find a quiet place to record your hum into a musical score. After that, we still have to practice before we can perform. "
"No problem." Sheyan nodded.
"Then let's sign the agreement. If you break the agreement, then I'll take two random items from your equipment and throw them into the space."
After listening to Sheyan's words, Franklin's final suspicions vanished. If Sheyan was the beneficiary of the breach of contract, then he would definitely have some suspicions of others plotting against his equipment. However, he was given a realm penalty. If there were any schemes, then it would only harm others without benefiting himself. In a space where benefits were paramount, such scams were rare.
When the two of them requested the realm to notarize the contract, it would generate a contract. As long as there were no special requirements, the contract would be signed with the serial number and military rank of both parties. Franklin's mind was originally completely focused on the silver storyline grade staff. He was already planning how to strengthen it and how to embed it.... He had also carefully read through the contents of the contract, but skipped over the signature date and so on.
"Reserve-duty Major, this rank 1 contestant called No.1018's military rank has risen quite quickly. When I was a rank 1 contestant, I was still stuck at the rank of Lieutenant ….. wait!!! "
"Why isn't there the word 'reserve'...???!!!"
"A rank 1 contestant with the military rank of Major??!!! Oh my god, am I crazy or is this world crazy?? "
"… ….."
Franklin was able to survive the immense danger of his party being annihilated, he definitely wasn't an ordinary person. He immediately pondered over the reason why this person in front of him leaked this information to him.
Was it to make him work hard? Or was it an unintentional leak?
If it was the former, then it wouldn't matter if this matter was exposed.
If it was the latter, then Franklin might face the risk of being silenced.
Therefore, he decided to deal with all changes by sticking to the status quo. No matter what, he had to settle the matter at hand first.
Only those who displayed their capabilities and worth would be valued by others. Only then would they have the qualifications to choose others ….. or rather, to be chosen by others.
*****
After the two of them signed the contract, Sheyan, Reef and Franklin walked to the side.
At this moment, the miserably neglected Aamir Khan exposed a trace of jealousy on his face. In a larger party, equipment had always been a huge problem. They were faced with a situation where there was a shortage of porridge and a shortage of monks. As the saying goes, one doesn't suffer from poverty, but rather from inequality.
That staff was something that even the former party leader Yerna coveted, what more Aamir Khan?
At this point, why did Sheyan find Franklin and not Aamir Khan?
That was because Franklin was an expert in playing the saxophone, while Aamir Khan used the violin as accompaniment. Naturally, to attract the attention of Melody who was under house arrest, the louder sound of the saxophone was undoubtedly the best choice.
The tune that Sheyan wanted Franklin to play wasn't any other tune, it was the 'Morning Light' that Melody sang when she first awakened as a twilight elf. This tune was sung by Melody while she was in Sheyan's embrace. She later told Sheyan that she would only sing this' Morning Light 'when she was in his embrace. It was equivalent to Melody's love song.
Therefore, even though Melody was under house arrest, once she heard this familiar tune, she would most likely think that it was related to him.
Because elves were similarly infatuated with music, Sheyan and Franklin specially searched for a secluded place in Rivendell. Firstly, to avoid being disturbed, and secondly, to prevent others from learning it.
Franklin's musical attainments were indeed high. Even if Sheyan, who was tone deaf, could only hum out a sloppy tune, Franklin could still easily compose it.
However, when Franklin was about to practice his tune, at least 10 individuals swarmed in from all directions.
Sheyan hadn't seen the leader before, but he was wielding a shield in his hands.
A towering shield held in both hands!
The towering shield was at least as tall as a person, looking extremely awe-inspiring. The spikes on the surface of the shield flickered with a cold glint, causing one to be intimidated. But upon closer inspection, the radiance on the surface of the towering shield was ….. deep blue.
The terrain here was like a gourd shaped death valley, and this shield-wielding individual was coincidentally stuck at the mouth of the gourd.
Aamir Khan strode out and pointed at Franklin.
"I didn't say wrongly! He is a traitor, betraying us here! "
Franklin was dumbstruck, speechless.
Surrounding them was the group of contestants that entered this world with them. They sneered as they slowly pressed in, closing in on their best attacking position. Yerna laughed out from afar.
"You three fools, do you think Rivendell is absolutely safe? The patrolling guards only patrol here once every 10 minutes, furthermore, our MT is blocking your only escape route. 15 minutes later, your corpses will turn to ashes! "
Facing such a situation, Sheyan sighed and helplessly replied.
"I really don't understand, why is it that when I don't want to stir up trouble, trouble always comes knocking on my door. You guys really haven't seen the world, treating a reserve-duty Growth-hunter MT with a dark blue shield as a treasure?"
As the saying goes, don't expose a person's shortcomings when scolding, don't hit their face when beating. Sheyan's incisive words had offended everyone, and deeply touched the eternal pain in the heart of this towering shield MT. Speaking of which, he was originally a second MT. After the death of the main MT, he led the remaining half of the party to succeed. His relationship with the main MT wasn't as harmonious as Sheyan and Reef, where even a dark blue towering shield was bought.... thus, a wave of frenzied curses and scoldings immediately erupted from the opposite side.
Just as the opposite side was about to erupt like a volcano, Reef stepped forward and stood in front of Sheyan and Franklin.
In this instance, the entire world turned silent.
Because the nightmare imprint on Reef's chest was emitting a glaring radiance. Growth-hunter!
He was shockingly wielding a massive shield in his hands, an MT!
As for the large shield that resembled the scorching sun in the sky, it emitted a dark golden radiance that nearly blinded one's eyes. Dark Gold Heavy Shield!
This person wielding a massive claw with both hands, was shockingly a Growth-hunter MT, and wielding a dark-gold heavy shield!!!
"Still want to fight? If you want to fight, hurry up, the elven guards will pass by every 10 minutes. "Sheyan calmly replied. Although he didn't look at the faces of the opposite party, he knew it would be a spectacular battle.
Although the opposite party held the advantage in numbers, Sheyan and Reef weren't the slightest bit fearful. With their formidable party capabilities, terrifying equipment, and a 40% mutual protection between contestants, charging out wasn't a simple task. Furthermore, once the elven guards recognized the instigating party, they would be instantly banished from Rivendell, forever barred from entering!
Naturally, at this moment, the disadvantage of a hastily assembled party manifested itself.
"I think this is a misunderstanding." A rustling voice weakly replied.
"That's right."
"I suddenly feel like there's a mission waiting for me to complete."
"...."
Since there was someone leading the way, the following matters were like water flowing through a canal. The original murderous plot instantly vanished into nothingness. Sheyan suddenly chillingly called out from behind.
"Aamir Khan, Yerna, I'll remember your names."
The two of them trembled from head to toe, as their complexions turned deathly pale. As for the rest of the people, they were rejoicing in the fact that they had a debtor for every grievance. They dispersed faster than anyone else!

Another interaction:
What was the message that Sheyan had asked Franklin to pass on?
Can anyone guess it?
