"Seriously. How are you able to defeat all 800 beasts by yourself?" lody smiled wryly. Previously, Clovis struggled against only two Tier 4 beasts.
Clovis simply replied, "It's the terrain advantage. In an open terrain like this, I can manipulate the beasts much easier than in a closed terrain. Each beast has their respective tier, and not all of them are fast. By taking advantage of their speed, you can easily take them down. It's the sa as racing, where one crash will cause a few others."
"…" lody couldn't deny it. Looking at how the corpses were scattered as well as their conditions, Clovis definitely caused massive crashes.
Clovis sighed. "By the way, can you handle all the collecting? There are a lot, so it must be tiring. But I'm too exhausted right now."
lody checked his condition. "I'll treat your wounds first."
"Nah, it's fine. Collecting all their essence will take hours, so I'll take care of my wounds. I'll help in one or two hours."
"Got it." lody nodded and started grabbing their equipnt.
Clovis turned off the cara and started picking up so items from his inventory. All of this would give them a lot of money. It was true that they couldn't really add it to their competition, but it would definitely help him opening the new store.
"I just need about seven million or sothing before I have enough money for everything. If I have to guess, all of these beasts can give us three million. So, four million if I add what we currently have."
Clovis paused for a mont. "Still, it seems that we're unable to go back just yet."
That was right. They had to check the information they would get from Vina.
He didn't know whether Vina knew about his identity or not, but he believed that she could dig it up if she was truly an information rchant.
Of course, because of the preparation that took a long ti, the others were worried because they thought Clovis and lody were in danger.
"I guess this is done." Clovis muttered while typing a few things in the group chat. "Well, they have done well in the last couple of days. Jay and Erwin have gotten about 3.2 million. Surprisingly, Kanaria and Ragna aren't that far either, with 2.9 million. No, should I say they are catching up?"
If this continued, Kanaria and Ragna might actually pass even Jay and Erwin.
Nevertheless, he took his ti to recover while checking the condition of the province. After he recovered a little bit, he started collecting the essence. There were a lot of beasts buried underneath the rubbles, so so of them had to be given up or it would be dangerous to gather them.
There was one thing that piqued Clovis' interest. When they extracted the dinosaur, they actually got a beast soul.
A beast soul was extrely rare. There was only one in ten thousand beasts. Even Clovis' team only got a few of them, with most weren't that suitable for the team.
Still, a Tier 4 beast soul, especially one that originated from a dinosaur, would definitely fetch a good price.
"To think that we have this much of a hard ti because of this locket…" Clovis muttered while staring at the locket. It was an empty locket. There was no picture or any decorations. However, there was one intricate pattern embedded on the inside. It was the sa crescent moon on the coin that Vina gave.
"I've been digging for information about this symbol. It seems that it's connected to one of the rcenary groups called Dark Moon rcenary," lody explained.
"Dark Moon rcenary? What kind of business do they have?"
"They are rcenaries, but instead of the front lines, they are doing things in the shadows. It's rumored that this rcenary group has so dealings with the company that builds the Gold Class Map."
"Hoh?" Clovis' expression turned serious. "They're that powerful?"
"Yeah. I can't find out about their precise strength unfortunately, So rumors are saying that their leader is a Tier 7 rcenary. So are stating that the leader has reached Tier 8."
"So she is…"
"Yeah. I'm afraid that lody is one of their agents. Maybe her teacher is quite respected and she is chosen to beco one of their managers or sothing. I don't know. We need soone who can gather information like that."
"What if we use them?" Clovis asked.
"No. It's true that you can use them, but they might also use you for their own greed. Do you know what's the worst part about them? It's that they're so secretive that you don't know whether you're attacking their branches or their headquarters."
"Fair enough. I'll think about it. For the ti being, our priority is actually a cook or a doctor."
"Fair enough."
Clovis and lody drove back to the camp. While it was true that Jay and the others managed to get a good result, each group had only killed one Tier 4 beast respectively. anwhile, Clovis and lody had eliminated seven of them.
This competition would still continue for another seven days, so they might still have the chance to reach the twenty Tier 4 beasts they had set in the beginning.
As soon as they returned, the staff that took care of him was shocked to see Clovis in such a ssy state.
However, it all changed the mont Clovis said, "Can we have a talk? It's very important and I don't really want too much attention."
"Is it about another Tier 4?" she asked in a low tone.
Clovis projected the map on the table and pointed at the location. This location had been marked as extrely dangerous with multiple Tier 4 beasts. That was why her face turned grim the mont she knew what Clovis wanted to talk about.
If it was this important, she believed that she should make a special arrangent. At this point, Clovis' team had done much more than any team in this camp. And they did it in a week.
"Let ask the manager."
