Sith couldn't help but comment in admiration. During the past day, they all experienced how formidable William was.
pαпdα Йᴏνê|,сòМ If they didn't get much of what he did back when they fought against the Nightmare monster and other monsters, then by seeing him fight by their side for this day, they knew he was someone truly special and gifted.
"Let's hope he'll change his mind in one week," one of Sith's team, a gold grade spirit master sighed, "it's a waste to let such a gem be buried under the mud of such a weak and useless academy."
"Yes, I hope so as well," Sith slowly nodded, before turning around, leading his team away towards the direction of the Scorching Lands.
"Now… Where are you?" William once left Sith's team, he started to worry about his team.
He knew they were now tens of kilometres apart, if not even more. He tried more than once to use the Bullets and see if they were nearby but always failed.
The range of a single Bullet would cover up no more than ten kilometre radius. And that told William he was apart from them by a long distance.
"I have to find a place to rest and think about where to go and how to find them," William knew it was futile to keep just wandering and roaming the forest aimlessly like that.
It was daytime, and monsters used to grow weak by now. Most of the monsters would prefer to sleep and rest, instead of seeking trouble with other monsters or the passerby spirit masters.
During the past day, William managed to gain a few hundred cores, mostly silver and bronze grades. He got a few white grades and two gold grades as well. And these two he acquired thanks to the help of Sith and other gold members in the latter's team.
William was already in the deep parts of the forest. So, meeting white grade monsters here was a rare occasion. The ones he met in this grade were considered babies of much higher-grade monsters.
The common monsters found here were all silver grade. He met many gold monsters, but most were killed by Sith and his team's gold grade spirit masters.
William only managed to deal the last blow for two gold grade monsters, stealing the kill in return for gaining two more gold cores.
"I got five gold cores… But I shouldn't grow greedy and reckless… I have to wait, be patient until I'll cross the silver grade border."
William didn't get lots of rest since leaving the safe landmine zone. He wanted to pay his debt in full to Sith and others, kept fighting and only getting little rest in between all that.
Soon enough, he found a little hill that had an opening in the middle of it. William used his gold sword, and managed to widen this hole, enough for him to lay inside and rest for hours without much worry.
He didn't forget to lay around a protective array, the one he used before when he was his team. He also added the concealment array, before finally getting inside the hole and rested his body.
The moment he laid his body there, he felt like all the fatigue he accumulated this far exploded in front of his face and body. It was like his body wanted and craved for a deep sleep and long deserved rest. Yet William didn't hurry to close his eyes before doing something first.
He absorbed lots of silver and bronze cores during the past day. And yet, for a reason he couldn't get, he didn't feel he was gaining lots of power like he should.
"Only eight hundred and thirty-two points? How come…?!!!" William expected his spirit power to increase by a little, not following what he expected before. However, this was much worse than what he even expected.
"Damn! It must be the quality of the silver cores… Those bastards! They were all in the low tier of the silver grade… Dammit! What a waste!"
William absorbed hundreds of cores and was supposed to get at least three hundred points increase. But all he got was one hundred and thirty-two points, much lower than what he expected.
He couldn't help but inwardly sigh. He knew to assess the grade of any monster, he got to test their bodies using special methods.
To do so in the middle of a hectic battle was crazy! "Any point gained is a big gain no matter what," he said these words to console himself. Then he took a deep breath, stored the spirit crystal he used to test his spirit power, before deciding to go through his current loot so far.
William's biggest gain didn't lie just in the cores, but in the rings and gears he acquired from the dark spirit masters he killed before.
"Damn! These folks… I never expected being an outlaw would grant you such wealth!"
William got seven more rings. Removing the seal over them was a piece of cake, as well as removing the tracking imprints left over them.
And when he took control over these, he was bewildered by the vast amount of wealth he found there. In terms of spirit crystals alone, he found hundreds of thousands in the rings combined.
"There are lots of gears here… The good ones are at silver grade… What were they planning to do with all these exactly? Trying to arm an army or what?!"
The number of gears he found in the rings was enough to arm up an army of three thousand spirit masters to the brim. William never thought this was a mere coincidence, and the group he met seemed to be out there to do something crucial for the dark spirit masters.
As he guessed so far, he didn't hesitate and ignored all the gears, spirit crystals, and monster materials in there. He started looking around, looking for something that would tell him about the real purpose of this little team.
"Found it!" After half an hour of going through all the content of each ring, he finally found something of value. His eyes shone brightly when he took out a sealed scroll.
