Chapter 466 Shatter Your Illusions and the Skill Called Master

The man behind the counter seemed a little confused until Fang Yi repeated it a second time.

Only then did he belatedly add a sentence in a low voice.

"To avoid unnecessary trouble, and assuming that teammates have no objection to the division of spoils."

"The equipment and materials don't need to be displayed; they can be sold at the corresponding facilities in town."

The man who was speaking looked at Vaughn, as well as Kanroji Mitsuri and Kocho Shinobu, who were standing a little further away.

"Excuse me."

As soon as he finished speaking, Vaughn shook his head.

The two women standing to the side hesitated for a moment.

After Kanroji Mitsuri stopped Kocho Shinobu.

She expressed a slightly reluctant approval, perfectly fulfilling the performance the man had requested.

"According to the previous notarization, the share between my sister and me is 15% each, but it does not involve this special material."

"Priority purchase right only if the captain waives the requirement."

The man behind the counter then raised two unusually large [Ghoul Claws].

He examined it closely and then gave a quote.

"Although a detailed assessment can only be conducted at the blacksmith's shop to provide a more accurate purchase price."

"But it's worth at least 3000 [Old Gold Coins]."

The impressive figures were announced.

Luo Yi felt a chill run down his spine.

But seeing that the tasks on the panel hadn't disappeared, he quickly calmed down.

The quest hasn't disappeared, which means I can get the reward.

Although my 8000 in earnings paled in comparison to what the other party had earned.

But it's also a lottery ticket that won a "big prize," making it something that Woyin should promote.

At the same time, he faces Fang Yi, a respectable opponent whom he needs to take seriously.

He doesn't mind temporarily avoiding the limelight and taking a step back.

Take turns being the two speakers with the other party.
-
The mercenaries were in complete uproar.

"Those are ghoul claws, but why are they so valuable! Is there some kind of conspiracy?"

"I just gave you 1000 [Old Gold Coins] last time, could it be..."

An antique dealer who had reached level 3 interrupted the discussion with an annoyed tone.

"Stop talking about inside stories and shady dealings, are you blind?"

Seeing that the crowd was somewhat puzzled, the antique dealer immediately started swearing.

"Look at the size and completeness of those claws!"
"That's high-quality material that only elite-level bosses can produce, and it's still undamaged!"

As soon as this sentence came out.

The mercenaries, however, were no longer as boisterous as before, and instead fell into a very strange silence.

After a short while, those who did not know Fang Yi stared at him and expressed their shock.

"On my first dungeon run, I killed an elite-level boss, a very troublesome one."

"An instant kill without taking any damage! Just how strong is he?"

Some people stared at the two women with envy and started to complain.

"These two [lv0] women are incredibly lucky. They managed to latch onto Fang Yi's coattails and even have the authority to purchase this kind of material."

Why don't I have that kind of luck?

"If we take that thing out, it will definitely make the people at the blacksmith's shop make an exception and modify their weapons ahead of schedule!"

Someone replied coldly.

"They can't afford that price! Unless..."

Everyone's eyes flashed, clearly indicating that they had plans for this [Ghoul Claw].

Fang Yi then threw out some monster corpses as proof of the reward.

"Settle these together too, they're not much."

The man behind the counter was already somewhat numb, but he still reported the profits in detail.

"A total of 1000 [old gold coins]."

"Your team's total earnings are 12000 [Old Gold Coins]. Apart from the two ladies each receiving 1800 [Old Gold Coins], the rest belongs to Mr. Fang Yi."

"Have you finished displaying all of your team's earnings? Would you like to exchange the gems for [Old Gold Coins] and calculate [Training Points]?"

Everyone nodded.

They tacitly concealed the existence of some [old gold coins], [smoked deer legs], [knife rack iron], and [corpse demon heart].

The two women uttered words that made everyone very envious.

"The two of us pooled our money to buy a Ghoul Claw for 1500 Old Gold Coins."

Then he took a [Ghoul Claw] and his [Identity Badge] which transformed him into a [lv1], and prepared to leave.

Vaughn excitedly took away his [identity badge], which made him [lv2].

He held it above his head and examined it closely.

Like a child who has just received an award.

He deliberately showed off his [identity badge] to Woyin.

Fang Yi then retrieved the other [Ghoul Claw] and took a pile of [Old Gold Coins].

They were about to retrieve their [identity badge].

But then, Wo Yin at the counter suddenly took Fang Yi's [identity badge].

Then he walked out from behind the counter and said loudly.

"For someone who can lead their team out of a dungeon with a sudden increase in difficulty, this is quite remarkable."

"How can this reward be enough?"

"At the same time, it's such a waste to let someone like you waste your time on those trivial tasks."

Then she looked at Luo Yi.

"That Li Yi is also quite outstanding."

"He deserves what I prepared for first place."

Hearing the notification sound in his ear: "You have triggered the hidden quest: The reward for first place."

Fang Yi first smiled.

Then, quite rudely, he interrupted Woyin.

They gave an unexpected answer.

"Captain Woyin, only the first place can receive the reward."

"Then there shouldn't be two people profiting from it."

Fang Yi turned his head and looked at Luo Yi, who was not far away.

He made the announcement in a very calm manner, which enraged Luo Yi.

Mercilessly shatter the illusions of this hostile person who hopes to gain some welfare benefits. "Because there is only one first place."

"And this person's name is..."

"Fang Yi!"

Wo Yin stared at the arrogant Fang Yi for a second, stunned.

Then he laughed.

“You certainly have the right to say that.”

Luo Yi and Fang Yi received different notification sounds.

Your hidden quest, "The Reward for First Place," has been changed to "The Absolute First Place."

Your hidden quest, "The Reward for First Place," has changed, and you cannot claim the reward.

Before Fang Yi could respond, Luo Yi spoke up, trying to salvage the situation.

Wo Yin then drew his sword.

"Then let me show you what this reward can do!"

As he spoke, Wo Yin's aura intensified.

The tangible fighting spirit emerged immediately.

The people present had the illusion that this [guild] had turned into an endless gray plain.

In the next instant, three white sword energies detached from the silver sword in Wo Yin's hand and flew straight towards Fang Yi.

But strangely, this sword energy appeared just as Fang Yi approached.

As if it had eyes, it drew several perfect arcs with a "whoosh".

It began to move up and down around Fang Yi's body.

Then, as if it possessed a spirit, it broke away from Fang Yi.

It was incorporated into the longsword in Woyin's hand.

"This is the [Silk Binding] technique that I have mastered."

"A technique that precisely manipulates battle aura into fine threads to enhance and control attacks, and reduces the effects of the [Magic Depletion] environment."

"Anyone I approve of, or anyone who contributes to the town, can get it from me."

"Of course, those who join the [Guard Team] and make contributions will be able to obtain it even faster!"

Woyin tossed Fang Yi a skill scroll and added a sentence with a smile.

"Of course, I want to be able to do that level like I do."

You still have a long way to go.

"I have more than just this one skill!"

Having said that, the swordsman, who had finished showing off and slightly suppressed Fang Yi's arrogance, walked out of the guild without looking back.

He left behind this sentence.

"After completing the [Apprentice Level] dungeon one more time, you can advance to [lv3] and venture outside the town to conquer [Elite Level] dungeons. I look forward to seeing how you perform."

"Of course, Li Yi was a bit short; he needed to do it twice."

Only after Woyin left did the mercenaries begin to catch their breath.

"What kind of swordsmanship is that? This is the first time I've seen Captain Woyin use it!"

"That goes beyond the scope of the skills that can be derived from the 'mastery' skills taught by those instructors."

"Only skills at the unparalleled [Master] level could generate this!!"

Seeing Fang Yi holding the [Skill Scroll], the mercenaries were extremely envious.

"So the reward went to Fang Yi? He was only first place in one 'dungeon' challenge, wasn't he?"

"Why am I not him? He exploited a loophole in the [Mercenary Level] system!"

"Even if my mercenary rank isn't high enough today, and I happen to be able to enter the 'first dungeon,' I can still do it!"

Many others, however, keenly sensed the subtext of Woyin's statement.

"Lord Woyin has such a skill! I've never seen him demonstrate it before!"

"Not only that! Lord Woyin said he had several more!"

"It looks like we can get it too? Even if we sell it to others, we can earn more than 10000."

"Joining the security force and staying in the town might be a good option!"

The mercenaries were already considering staying.
-
Luo Yi watched as Fang Yi took the [Silk Binding] skill scroll that he had missed out on.

He almost ground his teeth to powder.

This skill is closely related to and can be used in conjunction with [Master-level Basic Skills].

The price of acquiring the space is almost three times higher, requiring 30000 points!

More importantly, this skill can snowball in this mission!

This reward originally belonged to him!
However, he did not glare angrily at Fang Yi, nor did he step forward to argue with him.

He never does these pointless tasks.

Especially when the die is cast.

He simply shrank back into the crowd without saying a word.

It's as if they've chosen to back down and admit defeat in this matter.

But the murderous intent in his heart was stronger than ever before.

We absolutely cannot let him develop further! We must end this battle as soon as possible!

He began to think of a plan to kill the other party as soon as possible.

A moment later, he saw a group of mercenaries asking him if he wanted to transfer the [Ghoul Claw].

But Shinobu Kocho and Mitsuri Kanroji firmly said, "We want to go check out the blacksmith shop."

After recalling it, I remembered the other party's slightly resentful words to Fang Yi.

He already had some plans in mind, including an attempt to obtain information about Fang Yi before intercepting him.

He pulled out a handful of old gold coins and spoke to the female mercenary who was walking towards him.

"I'll give you money, and you can help me follow up with two people and ask them some questions."
-
The character [Woyin] has taught you [Master Swordsmanship Lv.3] and the skill [Warp] derived from [Silk Binding].

This character has extremely high affinity with you. Due to the influence of [Extraordinary Gravity], you can spend 8000 points to learn [Silk Binding].

Hearing the notification sound in his ear, Fang Yi, who had gotten something for free, revealed a satisfied smile.

He put the [Silk Binding] skill scroll back into his personal space and left the [Guild].

He is next going to the blacksmith shop to submit a request for a knife rack.

Let's check on the situation of [Kukai Kiyomitsu] and strengthen [Prometheus].

At the same time, if you're lucky.

He arranged for the two women to "accidentally" join his team.

There might be some additional gains.

After all, based on my previous experience in the dungeon.

Some people really enjoy doing little things like planting spies to gather intelligence on themselves.
