Chapter 1035: Chapter 360: Liquification_2
Half an hour later…
Although Georgia searched thoroughly, she still couldn’t find anything more valuable among the piles of junk. The potion recipes she found, Rein glanced at briefly and then gave up.
They were all apprentice-level potion recipes.
Of course, it was very likely that the more valuable recipes had long been sent away by Harvers.
And Otakar’s diary, as a record from a Metal Series Wizard, probably seemed not important in the eyes of Harvers and others, and hence was casually discarded here.
….
Before long, more than ten warhorses were loaded full with spoils and task vouchers from bladed Nagas and thick-shelled Lobster People, heading back to town.
Among them, the heaviest were the last three simple carts in the team, carrying two mixes of flesh and soil scooped from the ground, and the huge head of the Deep Sea Giant Leader Dune.
The two mixes of flesh and soil were the pancaked bodies of Harvers and Eshura, mixed with pressed soil, naturally heavy.
According to Fandar, although heavy, they were still very much worth transporting back for the Empire’s high bounty.
As for Giant Dune’s head, although only a mere head, its length exceeded a meter, with a volume akin to a large jar, surprisingly heavy.
Luckily, the three carts were covered with Meng Bu, otherwise, they might have scared quite a few passersby along the way.
But even covered with Meng Bu, the strong scent of blood, bined with the giant clawed seafood scent from the saddlebags on the sides of other horses, wafted all the way, drawing curious looks from many at the convoy.
This situation continued until the group reached Yilgala Town, reaching a peak.
“Hey! Fandar, has your Ice Claw Bear Mercenary Group gone fishing? So smelly!” A burly, scarred man, carrying a square Iron Shield, stepped forward, unable to hide his disdain as he spoke.
“Spencer, no matter how smelly, not as bad as your mouth!” Fandar immediately retorted.
However, as the two approached each other, they heartily hugged, patting each other’s backs, then laughed loudly.
This was the rough greeting style of the mercenaries who lived knife-edge lives.
“Fandar, looks like you’ve got quite a haul this time.”
“By the way, have you heard? A big piece of news! Ancestor Dragon Kolaxius has been killed by a lord. Everyone’s just been talking about it.” Spencer immediately shared a shocking piece of news with Fandar.
“You’re talking about Ancestor Dragon Kolaxius? The Mutated Ancestor Dragon even Winterfort Academy’s Director Lord Batalov couldn’t handle?” Fandar showed surprise.
He originally intended to share his legendary experience this time, but instead, the other party surprised him with shocking news.
“Yes, word is that a lord named Rein directly slew Ancestor Dragon Kolaxius, furthermore gaining the allegiance of several clans of the Ice Field Bear Monster.”
“Now, this suddenly emerged Lord Rein is already being called ‘King of the Bear Monsters’, ‘Ancestor Dragon Slayer’. This has spread through Winterfort Academy and nearby forces.”
“Huh? What’s this? Lord Rein?!”
Upon hearing this news, including Fandar, all members of the Ice Claw Bear Mercenary Group stood stunned as if struck by lightning!
“How about that! Shocked, right?” Spencer saw Fandar and the others’ dazed expressions, feeling highly satisfied.
Gosh, when he first heard this news, he was equally shocked.
That was Ancestor Dragon Kolaxius, the prestigious Lord Batalov of Frostwind Prairie and Ice Field couldn’t handle.
However, in the next moment, Spencer felt a bit odd, because including Fandar, everyone seemed involuntarily to glance at a young man in the group wearing a white Wizard Robe.
Spencer sized up Rein, of course he couldn’t assess Rein’s depth, so he quickly lost interest in that.
However, he was quite curious about what his old friend Fandar had in the carts, why the bloody smell was so strong.
Spencer walked over to the cart, before Fandar could stop him, he ‘swish’ pulled open the Meng Bu.
Spencer and a few people beside him took a closer look, and the next second were so terrified that they paled, stumbling back a few steps, falling to the ground.
“Holy crap!”
“Holy crap! What is this!”
In the cart, a gigantic head appeared before everyone, especially the pair of lantern-like furious eyes seemed to stare at Spencer.
The intensity of this pressure instantly swept through everyone’s hearts around.
No wonder Spencer, who wasn’t weak, nearly had his soul scared away!
And the surrounding mercenaries all looked as if they’d seen a ghost, scared back in a circle.
“This… Is this a giant’s head?!”
“There’s a sea smell, should be a Deep Sea Giant’s head.”
“But Deep Sea Giant’s heads aren’t so big, are they?”
“Yeah! Last time the Blood Wolf Mercenary Group brought back a Deep Sea Giant’s head, it wasn’t half the size, could it be a leader among Deep Sea Giants?”
“Since when did Ice Claw Bear Mercenary Group have such power?”
For a moment, people around were whispering in speculation.
Even mercenaries and Wizard Apprentices from afar curiously gathered around, and even the patrolling guards of Yilgala Town were squeezing over out of curiosity.
