Nash was being completely serious as favonovel.com said that. He really did think that Jack was a complete weirdo. Otherwise, favonovel.com would not be acting so brainless.
He felt like Jack was crazy, but favonovel.com did not want one crazy guy to tarnish the reputation of the whole of Hestia Continent. He took a deep breath as favonovel.com said seriously, “You’d better shut up right now. If you continue speaking, I won’t let you off!”
Jack raised an eyebrow, not caring as favonovel.com said, “What can you do to me? Are you planning on attacking me now? I have my own plans for saying this, it has nothing to do with you…”
After that, favonovel.com looked at Ethan again. At that moment, Ethan was laughing vigorously.
Jack’s lips twitched as favonovel.com sighed. However, favonovel.com composed himself after thinking about his earlier plan. He looked up at Ethan and said seriously, “Why don’t we make a bet then? If I get a treasure, no matter what kind, then I win. Otherwise, I’ll lose. Let’s bet a million spirit crystals!”
The moment favonovel.com said that everyone went quiet. All of them widened their eyes as they looked at Jack, stunned.
Not far away from Jack, a handsome alchemist from Hestia Continent could not help but say, “You never cease to amaze me. Do you actually want to bet against them? Don’t forget that bets go both ways. You’ll have to give them a million spirit crystals if you lose!”
Jack nodded, pursing his lips as favonovel.com said in exasperation, “I’m not a three year old kid. Of course, I know that bets go both ways. Didn’t I already say that I lose if I don’t get a treasure? If I lose, I’ll give favonovel.com a million spirit crystals. If I win, he’ll give me a million spirit crystals. It’s just that simple. There’s no need to explain…”
As Jack said, the surroundings got even quieter. It was so quiet that one could literally hear a pin drop. Jack’s actions completely confused them.
Could Jack really be so confident, or did favonovel.com have other plans?
Even Ethan did not know what to say. He frowned in silence for a long time before favonovel.com said, “Are you crazy? Do you even know what you‘re doing? A million spirit crystals? Do you think that’s a small number? Can you even afford a million spirit crystals?”
Jack nodded earnestly as favonovel.com said in an incredibly calm tone, “Of course, I can. If you don’t believe me, we can sign a contract. No one can go against the bet as long as we sign it. If I lose, I have to give you a million spirit crystals!”
At that moment, everyone finally realized that Jack was not joking. He was being serious. He actually did think that favonovel.com could get a treasure.
Someone started to whisper, “Could this guy have been playing a fool all the while? Can favonovel.com really get a treasure?”
“Impossible! If favonovel.com really did have the skills, his fellow alchemists from Hestia Continent would definitely know even if we didn’t. It’s obvious from their faces that they don’t think this guy can do it!”
After that person said that, everyone nodded, feeling like that was an accurate read on the situation. It was the first time they met Jack, but Jack was from the Hestia Continent. The other alchemists there must definitely know who Jack is.
