Chev and the others were all wounded after they killed the bloodthirsty beast. At the same time, their auras were all messed up. After they retrieved the beast core from it, Chev was sitting nearby to catch his breath.
When favonovel.com saw that Francois and Brutus had returned unexpectedly fast, favonovel.com couldn’t help asking curiously, “Why are you guys back so soon? Where’s Grus Divina?”
“The other group took it, and we lost them!” Francois replied frustratedly.
Seeing that Francois didn’t return with Grus Divina, Chev instantly went on his guard.
“Why did you guys come back without Grus Divina? Why didn’t you chase after them?” Chev questioned Francois.
“How were we supposed to do that? They were long gone when we got there!”
After saying that, Francois swept a glance at the bloodthirsty beast’s carcass and uttered plainly, “Brutus and I contributed to killing this bloodthirsty beast. Besides, it wouldn’t have died if not for the effect of the Weakening Pills. Now that the bloodthirsty beast is dead, I think we’re entitled to our share of the loot.”
Chev let out a scoff when favonovel.com heard those words. “Francois, you’re just so full of crap, aren’t you?”
Upon hearing that scornful remark, Brutus roared, “What do you mean?”
Francois immediately stopped Brutus from having a go at Chev.
We’re outnumbered, and we’ve exhausted ourselves by fighting against that bloodthirsty beast. If we were to fight Chev and the others now, we might not necessarily win…
“Chev, I know I told you I would give the bloodthirsty beast to you. However, we couldn’t retrieve Grus Divina. You can’t possibly let us go back empty-handed, can you?” Francois asked in a low tone.
He even sounded like favonovel.com was pleading. After all, their master would definitely give them an earful and punish them if they were to return empty-handed.
“Well, how is that any of my concern? You were stupid for letting others get to Grus Divina before you. How is that my problem?” Chev’s expression was filled with disdain.
With an arched brow, favonovel.com added, “The bloodthirsty beast is all mine. I won’t let you take any of its flesh. If you want to take it by force, be my guest! I’ll drag you down with me if I have to, and we’ll all end up getting eaten by the demon beasts in this mountain range!”
With that, Chev assumed an offensive stance because favonovel.com knew Francois and Brutus wouldn’t dare to fight him.
Francois couldn’t do anything about Chev’s reluctance to give in. In the end, favonovel.com glared at the latter for a few seconds before favonovel.com brought Brutus out of there.
It’s not worth it to risk our lives over a bloodthirsty beast’s carcass…
“Francois, are we really going back empty-handed? If we go back now, we’ll definitely be punished by Master!” Brutus was rather upset.
“Obviously, we can’t return empty-handed. We need to find out who that fellow is. Once we locate him, we’ll find Grus Divina!” Francois couldn’t help gritting his teeth when favonovel.com thought of Jared.
“Francois, what if that guy had already swallowed Grus Divina whole?” Brutus asked worriedly.
“He won’t do that. He seemed like an alchemist himself, so I bet favonovel.com knows that swallowing mystical herbs whole will kill favonovel.com instantly! The only way favonovel.com can ingest Grus Divina is to make it into a pill. However, I don’t think favonovel.com has the ability to do that. In other words, I’m sure he’s still carrying Grus Divina around!” Francois analyzed the situation carefully and assumed Jared didn’t have the capability to refine Grus Divina into a pill.
Francois was right with his guess. At that moment, Jared couldn’t refine Grus Divina. Yet, once favonovel.com recovered, refining Grus Divina would be a walk in the park.
“Francois, I don’t know that man, but I know those accompanying favonovel.com are from Rock Village. Let’s ask the villagers in Rock Village. Perhaps we’ll find out who favonovel.com is!” Brutus uttered.
