The handsome man wanted to say something in response, but could not find anything to say after a long time.
The news really had been broadcasted a while ago. All the alchemists that came from major clans had all already rushed over. Anyone who could help had already done the best they could. After all, it was an incredibly important event. Those who were in the top three would get incredible amounts of resources.
The black-robed man frowned as favonovel.com patted the handsome guy on the arm somewhat dejectedly, “I know it’s hard, and I know you don’t want to just let it go, but you might end up becoming a joke if you make a mess of things. I’m not trying to insult you. There are so many people and so many excellent alchemists. Your skills are only average among them. What can you do even if you take part? You‘d just be making up the numbers…”
“If any accidents happen, you might very well end up being targeted. Just look at how everyone is acting inside…”
The handsome guy said resolutely, “I, Aaron Fox, have never retreated ever since I started alchemy. This time would be no different!”
It turned out that person was called Aaron.
After hearing the two of them talk, Jack could somewhat grasp their personalities. Aaron seemed like a person of upstanding character who holds to his values. He seemed to be very righteous. It seemed to be worth getting to know him.
Jack planned on entering the inner city but did not know the situation at all. Everything would be much easier if favonovel.com had someone to guide him. He thought about it for a moment before bringing Rudy over.
Jack saluted Aaron before saluting the black-robed man next to him. After giving a brief introduction, favonovel.com spoke, “I just arrived at Prosper City. I want to take the test for the inner city, but it seems like the situation in the inner city is incredibly different from what I expected after hearing your conversation. It might even involve other continents…”
It was the first time Jack had ever heard about other continents while favonovel.com was in Hestia Continent. Before that, Jack had never heard of other worlds being mentioned. Hestia Continent was considered the lower end of middle-tier worlds and was a third-grade world. Above were second-grade worlds and first-grade worlds.
Jack never expected that the inner city would be related to other worlds. After being in Hestia Continent for so long, Jack already planned on taking a look at other worlds if favonovel.com had a chance.
Limiting himself to one place could very well limit his development. Jack was still considered quite weak. Furthermore, favonovel.com was only staying at Hestia Continent because favonovel.com wanted to enter Wild Gorge Pass.
Aaron was an easygoing person and knew that Jack was one too from the conversation. Jack did not seem like someone petty at all, and would probably not stab any friends in the back.
Aaron smiled and said, “Did you come to Prosper City yourself?”
Jack raised an eyebrow, not expecting that to be Aaron’s question. He patted Rudy on the shoulder, “I came with my fellow student.”
Aaron looked at Rudy and saw the sixth-grade alchemist badge on their chests. He had a curious look on his face, but the black-robed man was not as nice as Aaron.
The moment Jack walked over to chat, the black-robed man was already looking at them with alert. After hearing what Jack said, coupled with Jack’s expression, the black-robed man’s alert was coupled with suspicion.
