The two of them went silent again. After a long time, Jake said, “How much more do we need? After this round of torture, we still need to go on…”
“This task is so troublesome that I’m regretting accepting it. If it wasn’t for the fact that I’ll be able to pick out two treasures for myself once the Vibrant Hall opens, I wouldn’t have accepted this task.”
Florian joined in on that, “Obviously! If it wasn’t to open up the Vibrant Hall, I wouldn’t be wasting my time here. I don’t have that free time.”
Jake sighed and said, “Those warriors from third-grade worlds are no idiots. Once the slaughter game ends, they will notice something amiss after a day or two. Then, things will be a lot more difficult if we want to do anything else. Even so, we have to keep on doing this.”
Florian sighed, saying unhappily, “Those small operations already got us the Heartblood of two hundred people, but the higher-ups said that two hundred is far from enough. Opening the Vibrant Hall needs at least over a thousand. Even two or three thousand might not be enough…”
“We would need at least four to five thousand to completely open the Vibrant Hall. Otherwise, the place would not have been sealed for that long. Even after two five-hundred-year cycles, no one has opened it before. We’re putting a lot of effort into opening that place up.”
Jake shook his head and said, “There’s nothing we can do about it. If we left it aside, the warriors from the other second-grade worlds would not. Then, they might end up opening it before us. We would only get the scraps that are left behind.”
Guardio sighed as favonovel.com said with a lowered voice, “It’s a task from the higher-ups and we’re forced to complete it. You know how those guys are. We’ll end up being punished if we don’t complete it. If that happens, we should be happy if the punishment isn’t too bad. We wouldn’t even have the time to consider our own benefits.”
Thinking about all of that, Jake was incredibly frustrated, but there was nothing favonovel.com could do.
Just as everyone was lamenting their situation, Florian suddenly heard a noise by his ear. He looked over toward the noise, and a voice entered his head.
Florian suddenly stood up as favonovel.com looked in that direction.
The others looked at Florian, and Guardio said, “Who sent you a sound transfer?”
Florian clenched his teeth as favonovel.com said in anger, “It’s from Manson’s sound array, but the person who sent it isn’t Manson. It’s the piece of trash that captured Manson. He wants to come and find me! He wants to challenge me to a duel to the death!”
Florian scoffed with a look of disdain.
That guy really did not know his place. Issuing favonovel.com a challenge?
Did favonovel.com think that favonovel.com could defeat Florian just because they managed to capture Manson?
Manson was nothing to Florian. Anyone who could capture Manson was nothing to Florian either.
He sneered and said, “Since favonovel.com wants to die so badly, I’ll grant favonovel.com his wish! I’ll let favonovel.com suffer the consequences of challenging me!”
After favonovel.com said that, Florian rushed to find the person who sent favonovel.com that message, but Guardio stood up to stop him.
Florian looked at Guardio and said in confusion, “Why are you stopping me? ”
Guardio’s lips twitched helplessly, internally cursing Florian for being a numbskull. He had clearly said that the situation was unusual, yet, Florian was still being led around by his own emotions so easily.
Guardio said, “What if it’s a trap? Are you going to just rush in?”
