Runemaster in the Last Days - Chapter 885
Capítulo 885: Competition
“How about if we compete to deal with these rank 7 magic beasts?” Riya asked.
The two of them originally agreed to spar against each other, but there hasn’t been time for them before.
Now that they were here, how about competing in different matters instead?
Samuel arched his eyebrows and smirked. “Bring it on.”
They looked at the group of rank 7 magic beasts running over and swiftly moved around. One to the left and the other to the right.
What followed next was the rapid explosion and roaring of these rank 7 magic beasts that were being abused to death.
…
In the distance, Ruth and Jonas Nolan could still see the elemental explosion in the distance.
After digging the herbs for a while, Jonas Nolan stayed on the back to sort out the herbs that the soldiers collected. While these soldiers had been taught how to identify the herbs that Jonas Nolan wanted to find, but their sorting ability was not very good.
There were even some herbs that they placed wrong.
Well, he could only do it himself.
“The battle is really fierce.” Ruth looked at the distance and her eyes flickered slightly. She had been waiting here and basically watched over Jonas Nolan.
The soldiers scattered around the areas, looking for herbs and other samples would be brought back. If there were other weaker magic beasts, they would deal with it on their own and didn’t disturb these four people.
After all, it would be too embarrassing to ask for help if they couldn’t even deal with ordinary magic beasts.
These were not rank 7 magic beasts that they couldn’t defeat with their current strength.
“Do you want to fight?” Jonas Nolan asked nonchalantly while drying the herbs with expectation visible on his face.
Rather than fighting, Jonas Nolan was already imagining the scene of himself making various potions. These herbs made him really happy and Jonas Nolan wanted to stay here for the rest of his life.
*cough*
Well, at least, for a much longer time.
And if he could explore deeper in this valley, he might be able to find some other valuable herbs.
Some of these herbs could be directly used as potions and a small part will be reserved for cultivation and transplantation. After all, he wanted to ensure stable production of potions.
Ruth had already told them about what would happen in a year’s time.
So he should also be prepared.
As an alchemist, his fighting ability was far from top notch, so he could only focus to make sure that he had enough materials in hand.
In this way, he would be able to help other people to fight the magic beasts.
“Well… I have to train and I don’t plan to stay here,” Ruth answered honestly. This was something she has been thinking about and seeing Samuel and Riya were so unrestrained and even admitted openly that they were going out of the Green Planet, Ruth really hoped that she could be like them.
Openly stated what she wanted and also get out to deal with those magic beasts.
Instead of staying on the back and just wait for them to appear later.
Jonas Nolan stopped his action and turned his head with some hesitation. “In that case, how about if you apply to leave?”
“I know,” Ruth whispered softly.
The problem is, the Continent W might not agree to her request so easily. She had only arrived in Continent W for a short period of time and it was impossible for them to release her.
After all, for them to be able to bring Ruth over to Continent W, they already had to pay a lot.
They didn’t want to lose her right after she arrived in Continent W.
But she also didn’t want to be here.
So it would be better for her to figure out a way to negotiate some terms with them. That way, she would not be a puppet controlled by others for the rest of her life.
…
After a few hours, Samuel and Riya returned, still looked as clean as when they departed.
However, Riya looked annoyed.
“I should be stupid to agree to compete with you,” Riya grumbled.
She had long known that Samuel’s attack power was simply off the charts and as a rune master, it was basically impossible for Riya to compare with Samuel in this regards.
But when the two of them were facing those magic beasts, she miraculously forgot and agreed to compete with Samuel.
Just thinking about it made Riya annoyed.
Their bet was not that big, just a simple meal.
Still, Riya felt that she should have never relaxed her guard when she was around Samuel. This man was also a black bellied person.
Tsk.
Samuel chuckled. “Don’t forget our agreement~.”
“Don’t be so smug.” Riya narrowed her eyes. “Next time, we’ll compete in different matters.”
She didn’t want to lose.
Hearing this, Samuel only smiled and didn’t take it to heart.
When they were fighting just now, he used a large scale attack, directly killing a lot of rank 7 magic beasts. This move was what naturally allowed him to win in the bet with Riya.
And the one who lose had to cook food for the winner.
Samuel knew Riya’s cooking skills very well.
That was…
Well, there was nothing to expect.
In the dormitory during the early days of this disaster, Samuel could remember clearly that the food that Riya made was bland. He had to add some seasoning himself if he wanted to eat well.
Even Amelia could only say that she could barely eat the food cooked by Riya.
It was really…
Not something one would have much expectation of.
“You want to compete in how many rank 7 magic beasts you can kill in a long period of time?” Samuel asked.
In terms of strong firepower from the beginning until the end, Riya had to be ranked among the top. The Protective Rune Circle she made were able to replenish itself.
Not to mention, Riya had countless magic scrolls.
In a battle of attrition…
She’s definitely the champion.
