1280: 432.

While others are playing gas, are you guys acting the part of heroes?_3 Not only was Niu Niu afraid of Sister Pogranate, Arin was actually quite fearful as well, after all, they were peers and relatives.
Just because Niu Niu had been beaten up by Pogranate as a child didn’t an Arin could dodge a bullet.
“Co on, brothers!
Hurry up to the tower!”
As everyone discussed how to deal with the frozen Spider Demon godfather, the Star Soul Eagle, who hadn’t participated in the battle at all, shouted from behind the torn wall of the tower:
“There’s stuff in this tower!
Lots of stuff, I’ve already cleaned up the minions, co check it out, we’ve hit the jackpot.”
“You guys go ahead, I’ll watch it here.”
Turner was sitting on the ground, catching his breath, and waved at the other Martial Monks, instructing them:
“After you go in, rember to collect any information on Snegov’s family liaising with the twilight forces, don’t miss any details, I heard Lady Adel say you’re very good at mopping up after battles, so I’ll leave this mission-critical task to you.”
“Mhm.”
Everyone nodded in unison and then quickly entered the tower.
As the last stronghold of the Snegov family, it was naturally well-defended, but most of the gangsters had beco weak from the filth surge when the godfather transford, and were later taken down one by one by the Star Soul Eagle who sneaked around to their rear.
They dashed up the spiral staircase to the mob boss’s office, only to see several overturned boxes and gold coins and treasures scattered everywhere.
The burly Star Soul Eagle was sitting on a chest full of treasures, pinching a Northern-style battle knife in his left hand, holding a shimring Wave Trident in his right, and even wearing a diadem commonly used by female spellcasters on his head.
These three items twinkled dimly in the dark, clearly without a doubt, they were Psychic Weapons, and seeing such high-quality equipnt drop from the monsters for the first ti, the new players were instantly thrilled.
The robust Star Soul Eagle grinned and laughed:
“We’ve struck it rich this ti!
All the treasures accumulated by the Snegov family over the years are here, they must have been ready to pack up and flee when we arrived, and now it’s all ours.
Not just the gold and equipnt, but I also found a lot of property deeds!
It’s all property under the control of Bernel City.”
“Holy shit, aweso!”
Big Shark laughed heartily as he stepped forward to open a small box, pulled out a stack of property deeds, whistled and slipped a refined claw blade onto his hand, looking every bit the seasoned player ready to divvy up the loot.
However, Old Lee and Old Yang exchanged glances, and after communicating through their eyes, Teacher Li reached out to stop Sister Pogranate from opening a box, saying:
“These are ill-gotten gains the Snegov family has hoarded over the years!
Since we, the Shadow Trace Sect, are on a righteous path, we can’t take any of this!
I’ve also learned from Sir Morphy about the path of the Martial Monks, to beco a good Martial Monk, having a clear mind and few desires is the most basic requirent.
In my opinion, we should give a portion of these treasures to the city hall of Bernel.
We only need to keep enough to fund the Shadow Trace Sect’s future developnt.”
“Eh?”
Both Big Shark and Star Soul Eagle were visibly pained.
They eagerly looked at Brother Cat and Sister Pogranate, hoping the two would refute Teacher Li’s point of view.
But Brother Cat and Sister Pogranate, after looking at each other, agreed with Teacher Li’s decision.
Just as Big Shark was reluctantly watching, Brother Cat explained quietly to him:
“Don’t you want reputation?
With Turner’s temperant, if you swallowed this dirty money, I bet you can forget about learning more advanced martial arts from him.
This is obviously a challenge given to us by the developnt team!
Since they’re after 100% realism, then surely personal character requirents are an implicit condition in the progression of the Martial Monk path.
Currently, the Shadow Trace Sect only has Turner as a high-level NPC, if you don’t earn reputation, don’t expect to make significant breakthroughs in your martial skills.”
“Holy shit!
How could I forget this?
The favorability system…”
With a yelp, Big Shark imdiately tossed the pearl necklace he was holding back into the box, and the allure of the money was instantly gone.
Compared to the NPCs’ favorability, this re trifle could be discarded.
“Money, we shouldn’t take but equipnt, we can still divide.”
Sister Pogranate casually picked up a military cloak that had fallen to the ground, assessed it, and tossed it to Arin beside her, hands on her hips, she said:
“Even the way of the Martial Monks wouldn’t demand us to fight with bare fists when we’re weak; we must learn to use our resources wisely, so quickly ascertain the items here, keep the useful equipnt for ourselves, and take the rest back to Sir Morphy, this could earn us a nice boost in favorability.”
“There’s sothing here!”
As they discussed these matters, Old Yang was seriously caressing the office walls and the large bookshelf where the godfather was located.
After knocking on a particular brick and hearing a hollow sound, he turned his head and said sothing to everyone.
Sister Pogranate, the most dexterous of the group, stepped forward cautiously and moved the bricks away.
She dodged two traps carefully and with her fingertips pulled out a small box hidden inside, she opened it and found it full of letters, with a peculiar spider brooch right on top.
“Hey, I think I’ve seen this sowhere before?”
Upon seeing the brooch, Brother Cat’s eyes narrowed, he said:
“I won’t get it wrong, this pattern has definitely appeared sowhere!”
“What kind of mory is that!
So forgetful at such a young age?
Are you kidney-deficient or what?”
Sister Pogranate teased:
“Isn’t that the pattern on that very sexy elven house robe that Lady Adel occasionally wears?
Lady Adel has one-quarter Shadow Elf bloodline, and now that I think about it, this whole clue chain cos together.
This Shadow Elf power that’s secretly controlling the Snegov family, may well be related to Lady Adel’s background.”
