Chapter 307: Are You Trying To Make A Fool Out Of Me?

“Are those the Holy Sword adventurers’ materials? Indeed, they are unlike a small adventurer team like ours.”

Annie stood in front of the Holy Sword adventurer team’s building complex, watching the supplies unloaded from the carriages. She nibbled at the corner of her sleeve, her eyes glistening with envy.

Everyone followed Christina to the Holy Sword adventurer team an hour after leaving the Golden Quill Pavilion. Christina quickly assembled her team members for a meeting after placing the newcomers at the door. Christina chose 200 people to enter the underground maze with them.

Those 200 individuals comprised elites from the Holy Sword adventurer team. The weakest member was at the silver tier, and there were more than ten gold-tier elites. Apart from Christina, who had recently been promoted to platinum-tier, the lineup is quite fantastic.

“Indeed, the amount of items brought by the Holy Sword adventurer team is hundreds of times greater than what we would usually prepare. Additionally, there are other items that I have never seen before.”

Clyde continued to examine the materials that had been unloaded from the carriage.

Apart from the food and water, there was also an odd mask. A tube had been placed into the mask and attached to a massive airbag. Clyde had been an adventurer for decades, yet he had never seen anything like it.

“That is the gas bag. It is a tool that the Holy Sword adventurers developed based on the maze’s 50th floor. The boss on the 50th floor is a gold-tier monster called the Poison Explosion Tree. Its spores can leech onto people’s skin, and the poisonous gas it releases can cause people’s nerves to go haywire. Therefore, that instrument is vital.

“In addition to gas bags, we have waterproof air bags and folding binoculars that are more advanced than goggles! All these inventions were created after our fights in the underground city. Several of the items have been enhanced throughout a generation. Of course, those items are solely used by the Holy Sword adventurer team, and so no one else would have seen them before.”

Christina had suddenly appeared beside Clyde; she peered at everything in front of her while she said that. Her tone had a tinge of pride.

The Holy Sword adventurer team had paid more than anybody else to conquer the underground city, so they were at the forefront of the race.

“Lady Swordmistress, several of those goods are really advantageous to me. Can you sell them to me after the exploration?” Watson asked.

Other people might have thought that those were only auxiliary tools for clearing the maze, but they were different in Watson’s eyes.

Those gas bags were simplified versions of gas masks, and water-resistant gas bags were diving suits. Watson decided to purchase some of those items and bring them back to Mount Creation for the folks in charge of forging in Torch Town so that they could analyze them. Perhaps they could devise something that will aid in the advancement of future generations.

“It doesn’t matter. Those things remain classified under the terms of the Holy Sword adventurer team’s confidentiality agreement. We haven’t conquered the dungeon yet, so we do not want that knowledge revealed to other people. However, once we’ve conquered the dungeon, it wouldn’t have mattered anyway. You can have them then.”

“Miss Christina, I shall remember your words. Please don’t go back on your words.”

“I will never retract anything I have stated. I can provide those items to you for free, but the stipulation is that you assist me in surviving the dungeon.”

Christina’s opinions were different from Watson’s. The young man was motivated by self-improvement, while Christina desired passage through the dungeon. No matter how many people passed through it, she needed to do that to prove herself.

Perhaps it seemed a little conceited.

However, she was powerless to do anything about it. Expectations had encircled her life since she was a child due to her relationship with the sword saint family. Of course, if she wanted to clear the dungeon, she also needed to compete with her father.

Her father was the only person who had managed to pass the dungeon’s 100th floor, and he had revealed some details about that particular floor to her. So, she knew that everything else she did before the 100th floor was irrelevant. The real treasure was on that floor. That was also the reason why she had spared no effort to form an adventurer team.

Christina snapped back to her senses and looked at the young man beside her. He was avidly inspecting the contents in the carriage and even circling it. Her eyes shifted.

‘Watson, that young man, is truly unpredictable. He gave away gold-tier weapons freely, but he is extremely interested in those ungraded items. He is incomparably different from the average person! However, it is irrelevant. As long as he can help me, it’s fine.”

Christina acknowledged Watson’s skills, but not everyone had the same thought.

At that very moment, not far from the gate, several members of the adventurer team got together and whispered among themselves.

“Brother Blake, which of the adventurer team is assisting Lady Swordmistress? Why is she so excited about them? She doesn’t usually smile, but she is grinning during the meeting. She even said that she would conquer the dungeon this time. We won’t live this down if we don’t get it this time.”

As one of the members talked, he shot an unflattering gaze in the direction of Christina, Watson, and the others.

They feel insulted that Christina thought so highly of Watson.

Another member said, “Those people are from the Blood Rose adventurer team. They had just found fame in the City of Steel. According to what I’ve heard, they had advanced from bronze-tier adventurer team to gold-tier in just one day!”

“I’ve heard about that news too. They advanced because they had another new member, who even survived Lady Swordmistress’ sword attack. It was that youth in the distance. He is a gold-tier elite.”

“To have such talent at such a young age is just remarkable. However, regardless of his strength, is he stronger than Brother Blake? Brother Blake is our team’s strongest gold-tier fighter. Additionally, Blood Rose was a simple bronze-tier team before this. It means that except for their newest member, everyone else is a bronze-tier elite. I am not sure how much assistance they can provide her.”

The others continued to talk about the situation. Most of them had entered the dungeon solely to follow Christina’s lead to the 70th floor. The swordswoman was prepared to descend another 30 floors with the addition of a few bronze-tier warriors and a gold-tier elite. Was not that a joke?

Blake said, “All right, stop this conversation. This is Lady Christina’s command. She must have her own reasons for doing this. I am heading to the dungeon.” Then, he turned around and walked into the depths of the Holy Sword adventurer team’s building. “If you’re not chosen for the expedition, please remain at the entrance and refrain from gossiping lest Lady Christina hears what you say.”

“Brother Blake, we don’t want to do that either. However, Lady Christina’s order this time is too strange. We don’t want to follow those idiots from the bronze-tier adventurer team to our deaths! Once we enter the dungeon, we’ll immediately report to Lady Swordmistress if we find anything amiss.”

Several members of the adventurer team expressed their dissatisfaction. Blake shook his head and remained silent. Then, he turned around and strolled through the buildings’ vast halls. He entered a room that had been shut and opened the wooden boards on the floor. He descended the dungeon’s stairs.

Despite the dampness, the dungeon was well illuminated. The entire dungeon was deafeningly silent, and there were few guards. The dungeon was only sparsely populated. One could vaguely hear a man’s cough from the fence at the end of the dungeon.

Typically, a Holy Sword member would immediately be expelled if they committed a grave error. Only those who have made significant contributions and were not eligible for expulsion would be imprisoned to reflect on their actions. Only one individual had been arrested in recent days. It was Claude, the adventurer team’s former vice-captain.

“Isn’t that Blake, commander of the guards? Are you here to watch me make a fool of myself?”

Claude, who had lost a significant amount of weight, raised his head. Two ruthless emerald eyes appeared through the fence’s opening.
