316 Chapter 316
Communication?
The corner of Beerbohm’s mouth twitched. Beating her into the stone wall, this way of communication was really a little special.
Crack!
Carol also walked out of the stone wall. She gave Locke a resentful look and said, “I was too careless just now. If I really take it seriously, you will definitely not be my match.”
“Maybe,” Locke shrugged and said, “But you lost just now.”
Carol was so angry that her face turned a little red, she could only snort coldly.
“Uncle Beerbohm, we still have something else to do. I’m afraid I can’t go with you all the way.” Ignoring the sullen Carol, Locke said to Beerbohm and the others.
Beerbohm nodded and did not urge him to stay, “See you around.”
Locke nodded and said goodbye to Pran and the others behind Beerbohm before flying out.
“Bye.” Seeing that Locke had left, Carol waved at them, and then turned into a light and flew toward Locke.
“Are they really friends?”
The fat Patience looked in the direction of Locke with suspicion. He had seen most of the battle just now. Locke’s moves were quite fierce, which could be said to be fatal. This was not a relationship between friends.
“It’s none of your business.”
Beerbohm waved his hand and interrupted the fatty’s conjecture, “They are not ordinary people. We’d better not think too much. It’s none of our business.”
“We can’t stay here any longer. The fighting must have attracted a lot of people. Let’s get out of here as soon as possible.”
Standing still, Pran stared blankly in the direction where Locke and the girl disappeared.
“Well, don’t think about it anymore.” Heidi waved her hand in front of Pran and also took a look at the direction in which Locke left, “We are not the same kind of people as them.”
The light in Pran’s eyes dimmed.
On the other side, Locke’s speed was extremely fast. In just a few minutes, he had already reached dozens of miles away.
And Carol didn’t fall behind and followed Locke closely.
Puff!
Locke slowly stopped at the top of a mountain. Taking a look at the girl behind him, he said, “Let’s have a talk.”
“There is an ancient relic about to begin nearby. It should be left by a powerful true god.” Carol said confidently, “As long as we work together, the things inside will be ours!”
Looking at the energetic girl, Locke curled his lips and said, “How do I know if you will cheat me again?”
Carol was speechless for a while. With a serious look on her face, she said, “I promise by the ten thousand years of the Benjamin family’s reputation that I won’t do anything to harm Parker again.”
Seeing that Carol had sworn by her family, Locke shrugged and said, “I believe you.”
After a pause, he suddenly asked, “So, what is the Benjamin family?”
Carol was stunned for a moment and didn’t seem to have reacted to Locke’s question. Did this guy know nothing about the Benjamin family?!
She stared at Locke, trying to figure out whether Locke was joking or not. But after a while, she was defeated by Locke’s serious look.
“Our Benjamin family has a history of tens of thousands of years, and it is the most powerful family in the Icacia Continent! And the person standing in front of you is a super genius of the Benjamin family that is rare in a thousand years, a leading figure of the younger generation, and a talented girl.”
“Are you the super genius of your Benjamin family that is once in a thousand years?”
Locke looked at the girl with suspicion. The meaning was self-evident. Could a super genius be so weak?
Noticing Locke’s suspicious eyes, Carol became angry and explained with a red face, “Humph, that’s because I’m accommodating you. Otherwise, I will show you the powerful fighting skills of the Benjamin family!”
Waving his hand, Locke ignored the girl’s explanation and said, “Let’s talk about the compensation first. I blocked the attack of the energy-devouring beast for you. I don’t want too much. Just give me so many magic crystals.”
Locke said as he stretched out a finger.
“Isn’t it just ten thousand magic crystals? Here you are.”
Carol said with some ease. But before she finished her words, Locke shook his finger and corrected her, “One million magic crystals.”
“How much?”
Carol stared at Locke blankly, wondering if she had heard it wrong.
“One million magic crystals.”
Locke repeated.
Carol got furious and glared at Locke, “One million magic crystals! Why don’t you rob it?”
With a mocking smile on his face, Locke said, “What? Isn’t the genius of the Benjamin family, who is rarely seen in a thousand years, even worth one million magic crystals?”
“It’s useless to goad me.” Carol looked at Locke with disdain and said, “One million magic crystals. How dare you think about it?”
“There’s no more.” Carol waved her hand and ten thousand magic crystals appeared in front of Locke.
However, Locke was unmoved, “I’ll give you a discount. Eight hundred thousand.”
“Twenty thousand magic crystals, this is my last bottom line.”
“Six hundred thousand.”
“Parker, don’t go too far!”
“Fifty thousand at most.”
After bargaining for a while, Locke finally got one hundred thousand magic crystals, and Locke also agreed to cooperate.
Carol waved her hand and a scroll appeared in front of her. The scroll opened and it was the map of the land of legacy. Compared with Locke’s map, this map was very detailed and recorded more information.
“Our current position is here.”
Carol pointed out a point in the map, and then pointed to another place, “The true god relic is here, about fifty kilometers away from us.”
“At our speed, we should be there soon.” After saying that, Carol paused and said helplessly, “However, we have wasted a lot of time because of the energy-devouring beast. Many geniuses must have arrived there long ago. If we go there now, we will suffer a loss.”
Locke also nodded. Although he was not weak, he was still under great pressure when facing more than a dozen level-7 practitioners. Moreover, if there was someone who could help him break the enchanted barrier, why not?
“I suggest that we should not act rashly until we figure out the situation.” Locke said after thinking for a while.
Carol nodded in agreement.
Without wasting any more time, Locke and Carol flew in the direction of the relic.
Two hours later, they were only a thousand meters away from the relic.
In a hidden shade of a tree, they began to observe the situation in the distance.
There was a small mountain a thousand meters away, and in the middle of the mountain stood a giant stone gate. There was a platform in front of the stone gate. Down the platform was a bottomless abyss, which exuded a gloomy aura, making people feel cold.
There were a dozen people on the other side of the stone gate. These people all exuded the auras of level-7 practitioners, and their temperament looked quite extraordinary. One could tell at a glance that they were the talents of those super forces.
Irene and the other three people of the Imperial Mage Academy were among them.
In the distant forest, Locke also found dozens of magic auras. Obviously, they wanted to hide first, and then make a quick buck after these people break the enchanted barrier.
“Think about how to fight.”
Carol asked in a low voice, staring at the dense crowd in the distance.
Looking at the crowd in the distance, Locke frowned. After a while, he said, “How to fight? When the enchanted barrier is about to break, we will sneak into it.”
“That man’s name is Wheeler Steven. He is quite powerful in the Steven family. He seems to have found a solution.”
Carol said in a low voice, looking at the man who drew the magic pattern in the front. Then she made a comfortable posture and said, “In that case, let’s take advantage of it so that we don’t have to waste time breaking the enchanted barrier.”
