The joy on the dwarf's face froze, and he felt something was wrong.

Mark continued, with a slight smile on his lips:

"But I never seem to have agreed to accept your '10%' offer. Do you have any evidence that I agreed to your deal?"

The dwarf's eyes instantly widened larger than copper bells: "You...what do you mean?"

Mark's gaze was as sharp as a knife, piercing the dwarf's eyes:

"What I mean is, that magic crystal and the 'treasure' in your hand are the spoils of our joint efforts to kill the Bone Leech King. According to adventurer rules, they belong to the team that contributed the most. I want them all."

Originally, everyone worked together to kill the Bone Leech King, and Mark wanted to have a good talk with this dark-skinned dwarf.

Mark can also let bygones be bygones for the fact that he had taken advantage of the team before.

But now it seems that this guy really thinks that he, Mark, is a rookie priest who just left the monastery of the Holy Light Church!

The verbal agreement made previously can be changed at any time.

It's no wonder Mark is so good.

After all, although Mark is not a money-hungry person, he is not a serious and upright priest either.

So he added:

"Also, you deliberately led our team into this dangerous area, and you were supposed to compensate us. But considering that you helped us kill the Bone Leech King, we don't want the compensation."

"You fart!"

The dwarf jumped up suddenly like a cat whose tail was stepped on, his dark face flushed purple with anger and disbelief.

"You want all of it?! You also want compensation?"

"You human boy are even greedier than that bone crawler! Are you truly a righteous guardian of the Holy Light? Are you worthy of the Holy Light?"

"I've toiled and waited for hundreds of years, planning and laying out my plans, and even risked my life to break through armor and lure out monsters! Why do you want it all?! I can give up the magic crystal, but this treasure! Don't even think about it! It's mine! I..."

His words stopped abruptly.

Because a murderous intent that was so cold that it seemed to freeze the soul, like a real snake of shadow, silently wrapped around his neck.

Monica had appeared less than a meter away from him without him noticing.

A pair of dark purple vertical pupils condensed an inhuman coldness, like a poisonous snake staring at its prey.

She didn't even look at the dwarf, but just lowered her eyes and kept one claw on the dwarf's neck.

The tip of the other claw gently flicked the head of the adamantium hammer in the dwarf's hand.

bite--!

A clear tremolo was particularly harsh in the silent cave.

The dwarf's movements froze for a moment.

He felt a chill running from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, and cold sweat instantly broke out on the palms of his hands holding the treasure and the hammer.

The scene of the Leech King having his head ripped through by this woman just now replayed in his mind with incredible clarity.

This woman is silent and looks like a shadow creature that escaped from some abyss or secret realm. She can really kill people!

And there will be absolutely no hesitation when taking action!

Monica raised her eyelids, and her dark purple pupils glanced coldly at the dwarf without saying a word.

But the meaning in that look couldn't be clearer - if you say another word of nonsense, the next thing to be pierced through will be your head.

The dark-skinned dwarf opened his mouth and a "ho ho" sound came from his throat.

The anger, unwillingness and cunning on his face faded like the tide, and the cold feeling around his neck gave him goose bumps.

He looked at Mark's calm but unquestionable face, and felt Monica's cold murderous intent that was almost condensed into substance. Finally, he glanced at Anna who was staring at him with a fierce look and ready to draw her bow at any time, and the slime that looked stupid and cute but was actually ferocious.

A deep feeling of powerlessness and despair came over me.

"Gurgle..."

He swallowed hard, the muscles on his face twitched a few times, and finally he forced out a smile that was uglier than crying.

"Okay... okay! You're so cruel!"

The dwarf's voice was dry and hoarse, filled with pain and frustration. "Human boy... No, Captain! Captain Mark! You win! It all belongs to you! It all belongs to your team!"

He almost gritted his teeth, and reluctantly and slowly handed forward the strange column-shaped object in his arms that emitted a soft milky white light. His movements were so slow that it seemed as if he was handing over an ancestral treasure that had been passed down for eighteen generations.

"Here... here you go! This broken thing! I... I don't want it anymore, is that okay?!"

He turned his head away, as if his heart would bleed if he looked at it any longer. At the same time, he kicked the magic crystal in the pit next to him with his toes with great reluctance, "That...that one belongs to you too! I keep my word! Humph!"

If he had known the situation would be like this, he would rather wait for another ten years, until his strength improved, and then he could deal with the Bone Leech King himself.

But think about it, if I wait another ten years, the Bone Leech King might have swallowed the treasure...

Oh! Is this my fate?

Mark reached out and steadily took the treasure that was as warm as jade.

It feels slightly heavy in the hand and has a strange touch, as if it contains infinite life and star power.

Without looking at it any further, he casually stuffed it into the leather bag at his waist, as if he was just putting away an ordinary item.

“A wise choice.”

Mark said lightly, his eyes sweeping over the magic crystal at the bottom of the pit again.

Anna breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Mark take back the "treasure" and the dwarf did not resist.

He snorted at the dwarf, walked quickly to the edge of the pit, and carefully dug out the magic crystal that contained powerful earth elements and star magic.

The magic crystal felt heavy in his hand, and it was shining brightly. It was even more gorgeous than the dark and light werewolf magic crystals he had obtained before.

It is indeed the magic crystal condensed by a magic beast that is about to enter a high level.

The three-person team really made a fortune this time, not to mention the town of Osborne.

Even if all the adventurers in the thirty-six towns were added together, it is estimated that there would be less than ten adventure groups that could hunt a monster of this level.

The dark-skinned dwarf watched Anna put away the magic crystal, then looked at Mark's bulging skin, his beard trembling with heartache.

He finally glanced at Mark and Monica with resentment, muttering, "What a huge loss... A huge loss... I shouldn't have been greedy... I shouldn't have joined forces with you... A bunch of bandits... Darker than the darkest shadow lizards underground..."

He muttered to himself as he dragged his heavy feet and walked dejectedly towards the shadow of an inconspicuous crack deep in the cave, as if he just wanted to leave this sad place quickly and find a deserted place to lick his wounds.

But when he saw Mark's bulging skin and the gorgeous magic crystal that Anna carefully put away.

His heart felt like it was being repeatedly burned by boiling magma coming out of the ground, and the pain twisted his dark face.

He suddenly stopped, as if he had made a great decision, turned around abruptly, and a desperate light flashed in his small eyes.

“Wait…wait!”

His voice was dry and filled with a sense of desperation, "Greedy human brat! And... and those two... uh, powerful ladies!"
