“Eh? Why is this kid back?”
Everyone turned to look at the smiling Ke Tu.
Ke Tu smiled awkwardly. “I just…”
After being at a loss for words, Ke Tu said, “I saw a powerful demonic beast over there just now. I came back after killing it.”
Wei Can smiled noncommittally and said, “Oh? So you killed that so-called powerful demonic beast?”
Ke Tu: “…”
This was just his excuse to deceive Lin Xiruo.
There were no demonic beasts at all.
Lin Xiruo frowned and said, “Disgusting!”
Ke Tu’s face turned pale, and his body couldn’t help but tremble.
“Miss, let me explain!”
Liu Xiruo didn’t give Ke Tu a chance to explain at all, immediately replying, “No need to explain.”
“I saw everything.”
“When facing the powerful demonic beasts, you abandoned me and ran away.”
“If not for Brother Wei Can, I would have died a long time ago!”
Ke Tu: “…”
“Miss, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have left you alone.”
With a plop, Ke Tu actually knelt down towards Lin Xiruo.
“Please don’t tell Master Lin. Otherwise, our entire family will be chased out of the Lin family!”
When Lin Xiruo saw Ke Tu’s shamelessness, his eyes became even more disgusted.
She tilted her head and said to Wei Can, “Brother Wei Can, do you think we should punish this cowardly person?”
At this moment, Ma Meimei said, “In my opinion, we’ll expel him from the team!”
When Ke Tu heard this, his face turned pale again, and he looked very flustered.
“This Ghost Forest is full of danger. I can’t get out alone!”
Liu Xiruo turned a deaf ear, turning around and saying to Wei Can, “Brother Wei Can, I’ll listen to you!”
Anyone with discerning eyes could hear Lin Xiruo’s fondness of Wei Can.
Of course, Wei Can could tell.
However, the butler’s son had abandoned his young miss and escaped alone. To put it bluntly, this was their family matter.
He was not willing to get involved.
Therefore, Wei Can waved his hand and said, “We can’t leave him alone in the dangerous mystic realm. It’s better to bring him along. You can deal with him after we get out.”
Lin Xiruo nodded. Then, she turned around and said to Ke Tu, “Hurry up and thank Brother Wei Can.”
Ke Tu nodded vigorously. “Thank you, Brother Wei Can!”
Wei Can sighed softly and led the team into the depths of the Ghost Forest.
Ke Tu stood up and stared at Wei Can with a sinister look.
…
The large team advanced in an orderly manner.
Ever since Wei Can killed the Level 15 Night Spirit Wolf, most of the demonic beasts they encountered were very weak.
“Brother Wei Can, you can rest in the back.”
“You can attack when we encounter a powerful demonic beast.”
Ma Meimei said after everyone had dealt with a group of demonic beasts.
When Lin Xiruo heard this, she also echoed, “That’s right, Brother Wei Can, you just used up so much energy, don’t take action anymore.”
Wei Can nodded.
When he dealt with the Night Spirit Wolf, he had indeed consumed a large amount of energy, so he needed some time to recover.
Since everyone said so, Wei Can naturally did not hold back.
For the rest of the journey, he and Xu Yaoyue followed behind the group.
Suddenly, Wei Can felt that Xu Yaoyue was looking at him strangely.
So he said in a low voice, “Little Ice Dragon, why are you looking at me?”
Xu Yaoyue said truthfully, “I’m just curious as to why you’re so powerful.”
“With your 5S talent, your strength should only be on par with the Nether Devil, but you definitely shouldn’t be able to instantly kill it.”
Strength was one of the four attributes of a professional.
As one’s strength increased, one’s physical attacks would also be empowered.
Every time a professional leveled up, their four attributes would increase.
Different talents had different improvements on attributes.
For example, every time a professional with Grade E talent leveled up, their strength would increase by 1 point.
One with Grade D talent would increase by 2 points.
However, due to the difference in professions, the improvement was not exactly proportional.
Dragon Tamers like Wei Can mainly increased their Spirit, one of the four attributes.
Wei Can was amused and said, “So that’s why.”
With that, Wei Can beckoned Xu Yaoyue to come closer to his ear.
Seeing this, Xu Yaoyue snorted coldly and said, “If you don’t want to say, so be it.”
With that, she left Wei Can alone in the wind.
…
Soon, everyone arrived at the end of the Ghost Forest Mystic Realm.
At the end of the Ghost Forest Mystic Realm was a dead end. There was only one entrance.
Inside was a wide field shrouded in gray mist.
“Eh, strange…”
Lin Xiruo tilted her head. She held the map in her hand and said, “There should be a Boss or Elite in this place. Why is it so peaceful?”
At this moment, Ke Tu came over and said with a smile, “Young Miss, perhaps the demonic beast Boss just happened to leave.”
“That’s not right…”
Lin Xiruo shook her head and pointed inside, “If it left coincidentally, why would it leave the treasure chests behind?”
When everyone heard this, they looked in the direction Lin Xiruo was pointing at.
At the end of the thick fog, there were five bronze treasure chests.
“Maybe the others killed the Boss before us and the treasure chests were left behind,” Ke Tu said.
Lin Xiruo frowned, “But why did they leave the chests?”
Li Qiang probed, “Miss, it might be that they don’t like the chests or that they didn’t have time to claim them.”
Lin Xiruo was a bit skeptical, saying, “Alright…”
“But no matter what, we didn’t come for nothing.”
Then, she turned to look at Wei Can. “Brother Wei Can, you choose first!”
“That’s right, Brother Wei Can. You’re the one who contributed the most. You can choose first!”
Wei Can saw that everyone was saying the same thing, and since these five were all bronze treasure chests, he did not stand on ceremony with them.
He cupped his hands and said, “Thank you!”
With that, he walked straight to the treasure chest in the middle.
Placing his palm on it, he exerted strength and opened the treasure chest.
Whoosh!
A dazzling light dissipated.
A bronze sword bounced out.
The sword body was very strange. It was densely engraved with patterns like dragon scales.
Dragon Scale Sword
Bronze weapon. It can increase the bearer’s strength by 20 and add sword aura damage!
Hearing the notification, Wei Can was overjoyed.
The attribute bonus of this weapon was not dazzling among those of the same level, but the key was that it had sword aura damage. This function was usually only attached to Golden weapons.
Without another word, Wei Can could not help but equip the Dragon Scale Sword.
Other than Ke Tu, the others also obtained some good quality items from the treasure chests.
While everyone was sharing the joy of the harvest, Ke Tu stood at the entrance. The corners of his mouth curled up, and a ruthless look flashed across his eyes.
A small crystal was taken out of his pocket.
After he chanted an incantation, the thick fog was quietly dissipating.
