Otherwise, favonovel.com would not have abandoned the other seventh-level cities to come here. Faced with an alchemist who would definitely achieve a lot in the future, favonovel.com would naturally try his best to curry some favor. After all, those alchemists would definitely be of great help in the future.
Jack raised an eyebrow. Since that person was so understanding, it saved favonovel.com a lot of time. He could not be bothered to dwell on what happened before. He nodded at the white-robed man and handed the golden token in his hand.
Everything after that went smoothly. Those alchemists that were trying to cause trouble earlier had all completely shrank back. They no longer dared to do anything to Jack. However, Jack knew that it was just a temporary silence. After all, their grudges were still there.
The inner city’s entrance was at the most internal spot of the outer city. At noon on the sixth day, Jack brought Rudy to the inner city’s entrance. It was a massive circular passage.
The passage was obscured by a very colorful barrier. There were a lot of serious-looking alchemists standing outside of the passage. Most of them were frowning as if they had encountered an incredibly difficult problem.
Those people gathered around the entrance of the passage, seemingly talking about something.
When Jack saw the scene, favonovel.com could not help but frown as well.
Rudy whispered, “Could something be going on in the inner city? Why do they look so put off?”
Jack sighed, not denying it. The two of them slowed down as they slowly walked toward the group. When they were closer, they could hear the conversations that were going on.
A black-robed alchemist frowned as favonovel.com talked to a handsome man in front of him, “I think you shouldn’t be too rash. This situation is quite special. I can‘t believe other continents are involved. You know as well that Hestia Continent was separated from the other continents after the major incident thirty thousand years ago. We’ve been sealed off all the while, but the other continents are different…”
Before favonovel.com could finish, the man interrupted him, “Do you think I don‘t know what you’ve said?! We still need to take part in the end. If there’s no one from Hestia Continent at all, we’d become a laughing stock!”
The black-robed man shook his head helplessly, saying sadly, “In the end, Hestia Continent still loses to them…”
The handsome man was incredibly unhappy, and it was clearly written on his face. He said vehemently, “I don’t think we lost at all! It’s just that Phoenix Valley and the Unbreaking Pavilion are just completely shameless and despicable. They actually hid something so important from us. Otherwise, we wouldn’t be caught off guard. There are still a lot of excellent alchemists who are not at Prosper City!”
The black-robed man did not agree with what the handsome guy said. He took a deep breath and said, “I know you don’t want to lose to anyone, but there are some things that we can’t do by ourselves. The news has already spread, and all the alchemists that can get here are already here. Anyone who has the slightest bit of skill has all come over for more potential rewards. There should be some who are still not here, but it‘s just a small portion.”
