The Medallion -
Chapter 1008 Suspicious Of Their Relationship
"Alyssa, what are you doing here?" Some of the princes came forward with puzzled looks on their faces. They rushed to Alyssa's side, then turned their curious gazes toward her. Geoffrey asked first. "The spiritual treasure is buried inside this mountain," she declared as she pointed to the flame mountain behind her.
When the six treasure hunting teams heard this, they were taken aback. They had been searching for the spiritual treasure tirelessly, so it was a surprise that they came upon it entirely by accident. Despite replaceing the hiding place of the treasure, they still weren't happy because the six treasure hunting teams had all gathered here. It meant that they were back into the starting line.
Therefore, the princes started furiously thinking of what they should do. They wondered if they should summon their team members now, so they could rush in and grab the spiritual treasure first. "However, you can't get the spiritual treasure alone. There is a powerful guardian beast inside. No team can deal with it alone..." Alyssa had seen through the princes' minds at once, so she immediately dispelled their thoughts of monopolizing the treasure.
The princes looked at each other with disappointment.
"Hey, bastard..." At this time, Queenie's sharp eyes noticed that Rocky and Ken were standing a hundred meters away from them.
Everyone immediately looked up and saw that Rocky was also there. They, too, were surprised because none of them noticed him arrive.
"Sister, why is Mr. Rookie here?" Woods asked immediately.
"He is the first one to replace the place where the spiritual treasure is," Alyssa answered straightforwardly.
Her words surprised everyone present. They didn't expect that Rocky would replace the spiritual treasure faster than Alyssa and the six treasure hunting teams. Moreover, he went deep into the dangerous area alone. It was simply unimaginable!
They were far from impressed, however, since all the princes knew that the final result of this mission depended on the performance of the six treasure hunting teams. Rocky, who was the first one to replace the spiritual treasure, would give Woods' treasure hunting team more points. What's more, Alyssa herself had declared that he was the first one to replace the place, and no one dared to question it.
Therefore, Geoffrey and other princes could only glare at Rocky in jealousy and anger. To them, it felt like he was always taking the limelight away from them, at the most critical moments, and he continually put them into disadvantageous positions.
"Well, don't just stand there. It's very dangerous here. Everyone, go inside first. Take out all the ropes..." Alyssa then asked the six treasure hunting teams to take out all the ropes and make rope ladders. With the help of flying spirit-manipulated beasts, the six treasure hunting teams entered the flame mountain swiftly.
Under her command, the team of nearly a hundred people entered the mountain in just half an hour. They then adjusted themselves on the spot to recuperate.
At the same time, Alyssa also gathered all the princes and supreme masters at the Divine Stage from the six teams. She briefly explained the situation and her plan to work together with the six teams to seize the treasure.
"Alyssa, do you mean that all the treasure hunting teams should work together to fight against the seven-star guardian beast for the spiritual treasure? But if we do that, who will be the winner? I don't think we can divide the treasure equally." The eldest prince, Algy, was obviously against the idea. If they joined hands, the winner would likely be the treasure hunting team that performed the best and stood out from the rest of them. It would put his team at a disadvantage.
Besides Woods and Geoffrey, the other three princes also nodded in agreement. Of course, they were worried that their efforts would be in vain.
"If we join hands, it will make the situation more complicated. And how should we deal with the spiritual treasure? That's also a problem..."
"But it's impossible to deal with the seven-star guardian beast with our abilities alone. After all, the guardian beast is much stronger than a spirit-manipulated beast..."
"Judging from the current situation, if we want to defeat the seven-star beast and get the spiritual treasure, we have to work with each other. It's understandable, but every prince should also want to complete this treasure hunting task. If we can achieve it flawlessly, that would impress the emperor."
Several peerless masters at the Divine Stage also began to discuss and offer their suggestions.
"I understand what you are thinking, but according to the emperor's order, the most important thing is to get the spiritual treasure. As for this treasure hunting mission, it is only a test for the princes. It will be great if any treasure hunting team can get the spiritual treasure alone, but honestly speaking, you all have a very slim chance. That is why the emperor asked me to look for it myself and make decisions according to circumstances. To safeguard the harmonious relationship among all the princes, I think it's better to judge you by your performance in the Hell of Dragon Fang. In any case, your performance will also be recorded by the special monitor teams. In that time, the two elders and I will determine the winner according to the records..." Alyssa explained.
Geoffrey and Woods looked at each other, and Geoffrey said calmly, "If we join hands, I have no objection. After all, the most important thing now is to get the spiritual treasure."
"I agree." Woods also nodded his head.
"Alyssa, it's evident that you are doing this just to help Geoffrey and Woods. Everyone knows that both of their teams are very powerful, so their performance will naturally be better than ours. If you want to decide the winner by that, I will be the first one to disagree," Algy immediately protested. He was not stupid enough to give up his opportunity.
The other three princes also expressed their disagreement. Of course, they were all on the same side as Algy.
Their inability to work together was beginning to annoy Alyssa. If the other four princes did not cooperate, they might not be able to obtain the spiritual treasure. She couldn't do this with just the power of Geoffrey's and Woods' treasure hunting teams. With the two teams, it would be tough to break the enchanted barrier that was protecting the spiritual treasure around the flame altar. Not to mention, it would be impossible to defeat a seven-star guardian beast with their strength.
At this time, Rocky, who was standing quietly away from the crowd, was lost in thought. An idea came to his mind, so he approached Alyssa nonchalantly and whispered something to her ear.
Alyssa seemed to like his idea, judging from the way her eyes lit up happily. She gave Rocky a faint smile, which threw everyone for a loop. They had never seen her smile like that before! Neither have they seen her look so comfortable with other men, except for her brother, Woods. What was special about this guy? At that moment, everyone began to doubt the relationship between Alyssa and Rocky.0000
