"If we meet outside a Greater Rift, I wouldn't mind having a drink with your lovely captain at the tavern. But this is a public adventure zone, and if you don't surrender, I'll have to beat your captain to tears."
Dennis grinned maliciously, rubbing his wrist, and swung his spear. "Whether it's this Silver Fruit Tree or your material bracelets, they all belong to my 'Flame Adventurers' team!"
Swish swish swish!
The seven members instantly surrounded Minnie and the others.
This Iron-level adventure team from Red Peach City, although not very experienced, still has members with an average level of 28.
Captain Dennis, at level 33, unleashed his 'momentum,' which made Minnie and her group struggle to breathe, their steps heavy, and their strength vanish by half.
Minnie was almost in tears, and little pearls were welling up in her eyes.
She had finally found a Silver Fruit Tree and told her team members that they would have a big meal when they got back that night, with each person receiving an extra 1,000 gold coins. But as soon as she walked over, she was caught red-handed by the Flame Adventurers.
Not only is there no hope for the silver fruit tree, but they also have to give up the materials they painstakingly collected.
Minnie gritted her teeth and gripped the white-haired spear tightly in her hand.
This is an orange-quality spear that she bought from Linda for 100,000 gold during the Phoenix Flower's advancement party.
Unfortunately, the spear didn't give Minnie enough courage.
She glanced timidly at the burly members of the Flame Adventurer Team.
Compared to himself, a level 25 ordinary spearman, even the weakest member of the Flame Adventurer Team was level 28. The difference in strength between the two teams was too great.
Dennis alone could sweep them all away; they have no chance against him.
Minnie's face fell, and she muttered to the ladybug hovering to her upper right:
"That Dennis is shameless! I was the one who discovered the Silver Fruit Tree, but he won't give me a single fruit and even tried to steal my material bracelet. He's a complete idiot! Everyone, give him a piece of your mind!"
Unable to confront reality, Minnie can only vent her frustrations on the magical screen.
Dennis, on the other hand, seemed indifferent, leaning on his spear, picking his ears and nose, as if he really did have a lot of filth in his head, just like Minnie had said.
His arrogant attitude of not taking Minnie seriously at all was caught on camera by the ladybug.
That huge face appeared on the magic screen; you could count the number of nose hairs on it.
As Dennis fiddled with the ball, a small black ball was pulled out of his nostril, and a salty taste seemed to travel through the screen to everyone's mouths.
Dennis rubbed the sensory ladybug between his fingertips, then flicked it lightly, hitting the ladybug's head.
The head was the magical creature's 'camera.' In the hall, the adventurers from White Dove City could only see a huge black thing stuck on the screen. Some of them who were drinking juice turned pale and vomited all over the floor.
This action by the Star Rank official from Red Peach City immediately sparked public outrage.
[I know Dennis. He often comes to steal resources from White Dove City. Last month, the Brave Adventurer Team was robbed in the tenth level of the Great Dungeon. Captain Robert was beaten bloody and lay in bed for several days to recover!]
[The Flame Adventurers, they're a repeat offender; they don't collect any resources themselves, they just steal from others.]
[The shrimp-headed man is disgusting!]
[Sigh, if only the White Dove Adventurers were here.]
The public area is too large; the White Dove Adventurer Group alone can't protect everyone. The adventurers from Ghost City, Rock City, and Red Heart City are in cahoots; it would be good if they didn't help Red Heart City rob us. The only ones who can truly help are the White Doves.
[Hey everyone, look! Isn't there someone behind Captain Minnie? Are other adventure teams coming?]
It seems that more than just flames and dragon-slaying adventurers are drawn to the Silver Fruit Tree.
Minnie saw the suggestion and secretly glanced behind her, and sure enough, she saw a figure approaching.
This brought a sense of joy to Minnie's heart. Although there were many outsiders in White Dove City, the majority of them were locals.
In the Great Rift, fighting together against external enemies is a tacit agreement among adventurers.
However, Minnie's joy lasted only a moment.
She immediately realized that, given the strength of the Flame Adventure Team, apart from the White Dove Adventure Team and Ice Flower, who had just been promoted to the Iron Rank yesterday, it seemed that no one could defeat them.
The approaching team from afar would be like lambs to the slaughter, harming them instead.
'I need to warn them, it's dangerous here!'
Minnie nervously reached out her right hand and touched her coat pocket, where she found a scroll that could fire a signal flare.
"What are you doing with your hands? Put your hands up!"
Dennis was waiting for the adventure team in the distance to walk right into his trap when he saw Minnie pull out a magic scroll. His expression changed instantly, and he swung the handle of his spear at Minnie's right hand.
With a snap, Minnie was caught off guard and her wrist was broken. She winced in pain, tears streaming down her face.
"Fine, go ahead and take the resources. Why are you attacking our captain? Let's fight them!"
"Ouch."
"It hurts, stop hitting me."
A bald, burly male team member who admired Minnie was furious, but in less than three seconds, he was beaten into begging for mercy by the members of the Flame Adventure Team.
"Trying to be a hero and save the damsel in distress? Take a look at yourself first."
A blond man with a small mustache kicked the former in the stomach with disdain.
[This is outrageous! It's one thing for the Flame Adventurers to fight that bald guy, but how could they hit Captain Minnie?!]
[Damn it, isn't there anyone who can punish Dennis?]
[Good news, brothers! I came from Hall 6 next door to let you know that the adventure team coming from over there is Luanweihua and Xueyan!]
After this suggestion was made, the adventurers in the hall fell slightly silent.
