Chapter 934: Chapter 936

Chapter 936 Probing Was Gerald angry? Of course, he was. There was even a burst of rage in his heart.

The reason Gerald helped Anabel to come here was because she threatened him. When they arrived, Anabel was respectful and obedient most of the time. He also helped her get first place!

To some extent, the rise of the Archaic Tribe was successful because of Gerald.

If it weren’t for Gerald, Skyler would have died when he faced Lyon and the others from the Blood Tribe.

If it weren’t for Gerald, Anabel wouldn’t have gotten first place, and the Archaic wouldn’t be able to gain its reputation.

But Gerald did not blame Anabel. Now that the chief of the Archaic Tribe was involved, things were out of Anabel’s control.

No one expected that the chief of the Archaic Tribe would insist on Gerald and the others joining the Archaic Tribe.

But this was how the world works. The bigger your fist, the easier you get your way.

Gerald looked up at Archaic Tribe and asked calmly, “What if I insist on declining your request?”

If Gerald joined the Archaic Tribe, the latter would run a background check on him and start questioning him..

It may even lead to the existence of Earth being exposed.

So, if the other party remained firm on their ground, they would have to fight against them.

The atmosphere suddenly became a little tense. Everyone had their weapons ready.

Kristian’s Adam’s apple bobbed. He wanted to speak, but he did not dare to.

Sylvie lowered her chief as if she was processing something in her mind.

Cold sweat trickled down Anabel’s forechief continuously. In the presence of the chief of the Archaic Tribe, she found it challenging even to open her mouth to speak.

The chief of the Archaic Tribe gazed at Gerald with amusement. After a while, a smile appeared on the former’s face. “If you don’t want to join, so be it!”

With that, the chief of the Archaic Tribe let down his vigour abruptly.

Then, he looked at the person announcing the reward and said, “Remove the line that says he has to join the Archaic Tribe.”

“Huh?” Gerald was baffled.

With the chief of the Archaic Tribe’s sudden change in vigour, Gerald quickly regained his composure and looked at the former in utter surprise.

The middle-aged man was making such a commotion earlier, and then suddenly, he decided to let the trio off the hook.

Everyone, including Gerald, was confused.

But no one noticed a faint smile was forming on the corner of the middle-aged man’s mouth.

The person who was standing at the front continued to announce the rewards.

“Carolyn Berry, a servant of Anabel Pierce from the Shaw family in Mullen City. You will be rewarded with a pair of Silver Wings!”

“Valery Manning, a servant of Anabel Pierce from the Shaw family in Mullen City. You will be rewarded with a pair of Silver Wings!”

Following Gerald’s refusal to join the Archaic Tribe, the atmosphere became awkward when the rewards were announced.

However, Gerald was quite interested in the Silver Wings. The item may seem ordinary, but it could instantly transform into steel-like wings at critical moments.

Regardless of its functionality, it was a perfect item to show off to others.

Gerald was relieved to see that everything went smoothly.

“He didn’t want to have too much involvement with these powerful forces. Helping Anabel was out of necessity rather than choice.

After the rewards were announced, the middle-aged man stood up and said with a smile, “Everyone, you may adjourn!”

Everyone rose, bowed to the middle-aged man, and exited the dining room. Only then did Gerald let out a long breath. His vest was completely soaked.

Before Gerald could leave, he had no idea what this man would do next.

After exiting the dining room, Anabel walked up to the trio. She pursed her lips and was preparing to bow to them.

Valery quickly held her up and said, “What are you doing?”

“I’m sorry. I didn’t expect the chief to do such a thing just now,” Anabel explained.

Gerald was dumbfounded. This man was the most unfathomable and incomprehensible man he had ever met.

Gerald shook his chief and assured Anabel, “No one expected him to do that. I still don’t understand why he did it. It’s out of your control, so it’s not your fault.”

“Besides, Gerald smiled. “We’re okay now.”

But Gerald had secretly kept this incident to heart. He had learnt that if he wanted to have a say in this world or to be free, he had to become extremely powerful himself.

Anabel still looked apologetic.

At that moment, Kristian approached Gerald and said cheekily, “You’re really something, Gerald. You’re the first person I’ve ever seen who dares to talk to the chief like that. No one dares to and can resist his will.”

“Why don’t we skip dinner and slip away? I’m afraid he’ll regret it later. Gerald glanced at Kristian.

“Don’t worry The chief has already said he won’t force you to join,” Kristian answered. And even if you don’t join, he won’t do anything to you. You’ve already helped the Archaic Tribe. If he really does something to you. it will seem that he’s ungrateful. It’s not good for our reputation if word gets out. The chief cares about his reputation very much!”

Then Kristian chuckled and continued, “So, don’t worry about it and stay a little longer. I have to go home. Now that I’ve met the chief, I must also meet my dad. Once I get beaten up, I’ll come back and pick you up for dinner.”

“Beaten up?” Gerald looked at him suspiciously. “Why would you get beaten up?”

Kristian smiled bitterly and said, “It’s all because of you and Skyler. You all know my father is a psychopath. Before I left home, my team was the strongest. They required me to be in the top five, but now I got eighth. place. Worst of all, you got first, and Skyler got fourth! I’ll probably have my leg broken when I go back.”

Gerald let out a dry cough and said, “Well, that’s indeed a bit over the top!”

“Let’s not talk about it anymore. Time to go home to get beaten up.” Kristian muttered with a bitter smile.

He tried to lighten the atmosphere, and the group seemed more relaxed.

Anabel brought Gerald and the gang back to the courtyard where they used to stay while Skyler went out to socialise due to the overwhelming invitations.

Just as they left, the chief of the Archaic Tribe came and sat in the dining room. He was deep in thought.

“Did you take an interest in those three?” A woman with white hair walked to his side and stood still, then took his hand.

“Yes.” The middle-aged man nodded and said, “Well, it’s more like I’m curious about them. We’ve seen the capabilities of those who participated in the test this time. It’s impossible for Anabel to win first place if she is alone. I’m more curious about the capabilities of these three, so I tried to test them.”

“How is it?” The silver-haired woman asked.

“Two supreme Flame Decayers,” the middle-aged man replied casually.

“Huh?” The silver-haired woman was dumbfounded. “Becoming a Supreme Flame Decayer before 30 is no easy feat. They are indeed geniuses. It’s worth training them up.”

“It’s not that simple! The middle-aged man shook his head and said, “I’ve read their information. The actual age of the trio is about 25 years old.”

“What?” The silver-haired wornan asked in horror, “A Supreme Flame Decayer at 25 years old?”

The middle-aged man sighed and said, “Not only that, they have either taken the long journey to achieve the supreme level of Flame Decay or possess rare attributes. Otherwise, they couldn’t have resisted my coercion In such a calm manner.”

“This...” The white-haired woman gulped and exclaimed, “No wonder you want them to join the Archaic Tribe/”>

“Unfortunately, they are not interested in joining the Archaic Tribe.” The middle-aged man shook his head disappointedly and muttered.

Gerald had no idea that the middle-aged man was only testing him out of curiosity.
