The black-robed man asked, “The two of you arrived at Prosper City by yourselves?”
Jack immediately understood what the black-robed man was thinking. After all, they would have had to pass the test of an eighth-level city to arrive at Prosper City. Before that, they would have to get past a ninth-level city. It was impossible for alchemists to reach this place alone.
They had to have strong warriors protecting them. The two of them had also only reached this place thanks to the protection of others.
Jack coughed before finding a reason, “We separated from the others after coming out of the eighth level city…”
The black-robed man frowned, “So that’s what happened. No wonder you don’t know anything. The news is already out. As long as you’re not a wandering warrior, you should have already received the news.”
After saying that, the black-robed man measured them with even more suspicion.
Jack was starting to get a bit confused at that point since Aaron was nowhere near as suspicious as the black-robed man.
He felt like the black-robed man was just talking a lot, but failed to get to the actual point. Aaron decided to just clear Jack’s questions, “Every clan’s warriors or alchemists would have gotten a sound transfer array notification from their fellow disciples, asking all the alchemists to head to Prosper City!”
Jack frowned, feeling a little exasperated.
As an alchemist from Phoenix Valley, all of them had an identification token with them. Not only could that token keep track of merit points, but it could also even be used to transfer information at important moments. Yet, that token had lost its effect since they entered the Whirling World. There was no information sent over at all.
After hearing that, a thought flashed in Jack’s mind. It looked like Phoenix Valley had already given up on Jack. Regardless of what the reason was, they did not regard Jack as a part of them.
With that in mind, Jack felt a chill in his heart. Even though favonovel.com had not planned on staying in Phoenix Valley for that long, favonovel.com had not expected that Phoenix Valley would betray favonovel.com either. He had even been a great help to Phoenix Valley, but Phoenix Valley had never spent anything on nurturing Jack. The spirit crystals Jack had gotten in Phoenix Valley had all been earned by Jack himself.
After entering the whirling World, Jack found out about a lot of secrets. Most of those secrets involved Phoenix Valley. Even though Jack was disappointed that Phoenix Valley had hidden so much for him, favonovel.com would have still helped them if they were in trouble.
Jack completely discarded the thought at that point, favonovel.com would sever all ties with Phoenix Valley!
Rudy had clearly seen the dark look on Jack’s face and was trying to guess what favonovel.com was thinking. After all, Rudy’s identity token had not worked at all as well.
Aaron was quite carefree and did not notice Jack’s mood at all as favonovel.com continued, “It‘s been five to six days. All the alchemists that should be here have already arrived. After all, this event concerns the distribution of resources. Everyone did their best, but the results were not amazing. They only got one bronze treasure and black treasure.”
