The crime of trying to kill another alchemist was something the two of them could not bear. Even if they had someone to back them up, there was no way they could be protected. After all, that act was far too evil.
Johnson reached out and patted Harold on the arm before saying, “There’s no reason to doubt Michael’s skills, so favonovel.com must have changed his mind. I just wonder why favonovel.com suddenly changed his mind. Could favonovel.com think that killing Jack would be incredibly troublesome?”
Harold shook his head, looked at Johnson seriously, and replied, “It’s not the first time Michael has done a deal like this. I looked for favonovel.com precisely because he’s experienced with these things.
“The person who recommended favonovel.com has used favonovel.com before. Michael is very trustworthy, and he’s intelligent as well. He does things cleanly and has never leaked out any information.”
Johnson raised an eyebrow, “If that’s the case, we don’t have to be too worried. At the very least, Michael is someone who knows what to do. Even though favonovel.com isn’t here for some reason, favonovel.com was probably held up by something. He probably found some incredibly valuable material…”
Harold shook his head and replied, “I’d be even more worried if that was the case. Michael is quite poor. The fact that favonovel.com does all of this means favonovel.com lacks resources and spirit crystals.”
“That’s more reason for favonovel.com to be here on time. The fact that favonovel.com is not here just means that something must have happened. Iwonder if that guy is dead or not!”
As favonovel.com said that, Harold clenched his fists tightly. He was most worried about whether Jack was still alive. He would be even more frustrated if that was the case.
Just thinking about Jack’s face made favonovel.com want to send a few slaps at Jack. He still vividly remembered how favonovel.com was humiliated in the Elder Hall. In the task hall, Jack had not given way to favonovel.com and had even embarrassed favonovel.com in front of everyone. In the Elder Hall, Jack had deliberately humiliated favonovel.com again. He had never been so embarrassed in his life. Jack was basically his arch-nemesis. He would absolutely not allow Jack to remain alive.
Johnson frowned. It was obvious how much Harold hated Jack from his expression. If Jack did not die, Harold might end up spitting blood in frustration. He took a deep breath, thinking about it for a while before saying, “He must be dead. If Michael is really that trustworthy, then favonovel.com must have had his eyes on Jack the moment we stepped into this place. I feel like favonovel.com must have encountered something else that would delay favonovel.com from coming here after killing Jack. It’s not that favonovel.com did not kill Jack.”
Harold nodded after a long while, “You’re right. Michael is an incredibly trustworthy assassin. Could favonovel.com have encountered some other danger or have been spotted by someone?”
Johnson shook his head, not daring to say his thoughts. Even if favonovel.com said them, they would have no way to solve the problems anyway.
He opened up Harold’s hand and placed the White Phoenix Fruit back in Harold’s palm.
“We’re quite lucky this time. Not only did we get eighth-grade White Phoenix Fruits, but we also picked up Eighth-Grade Turtle Blood Grasses. If we redeem them at the task hall, they’d be worth quite a few spirit crystals. We profited quite a lot this time, so we should relax a bit.”
