Chapter 877: Chapter 330: “Be Obedient, Let Me See How You’ve Developed.” (7000)_2
As he walked, the Elite Hunter asked, “Little guy, how long have you been with the Church?”
Cao Xing whispered back, “M-Master, I’ve been with the Church for less than half a month…”
Hearing this, the Elite Hunter chuckled again.
“I thought so, only newbies like you who haven’t been here long would do such foolish things.”
Cao Xing pretended to lower his head in guilt.
The other continued, “Little guy, did you also just arrive in Dorun Lake City today?”
“Yes, Master.”
“Then you’re really unlucky, just joined the Church and got sent on such a dangerous mission.”
“Who knows how many of the Church members in Dorun Lake City will survive this operation.”
“Forget it, let’s not talk about this anymore.”
The Elite Hunter shook his head.
“Tonight, your task is to guard the grain warehouse, any problems?”
Cao Xing was stunned.
Ah?
You want me to guard the grain warehouse?
Are you sure?
He needs to know, his main purpose for coming to the city this time is to scavenge resources!
And what resources does he desperately need at the moment?
Lots of Crowns! Grain!
In such a large Dorun Lake City, he was worried about where to find the Light Church’s grain reserves!
His heart was already filled with joy.
But he didn’t show it, and instead nodded, “O-Okay, Master…”
“Very well, follow me.”
Cao Xing continued to cautiously follow behind this Elite Captain, but internally he couldn’t help feeling excited.
After all, that’s the grain of a Giant City!
How much reserve there is, it’s unimaginable!
They crossed three or four streets in succession, encountering several patrols of Hunters on the way.
Upon seeing them, they would nod to each other.
It seemed that this Elite Hunter Captain was well-mixed among the other Hunters.
As they walked, the other suddenly changed routes.
Since Cao Xing was unfamiliar with the city’s layout, he followed closely behind.
Then he realized that the path they were taking seemed increasingly wrong.
They had already left the main street and came to a secluded alley.
However, Cao Xing did not make a sound and continued to follow behind the other person.
He had just swept his eyes over him and found that this person only had Fourth Rank Elite Level strength, hardly worth worrying about.
In front of a residential house, the Captain suddenly stopped.
And then, as if familiar with the place, pushed the door open.
“Come in with me.”
He suddenly seemed like a different person, his tone brooking no refusal.
When Cao Xing entered the door.
The Captain directly turned around and closed the door.
“C-Captain, what’s going on?” Cao Xing asked, pretending to be terrified.
The other did not speak but looked at him with a gaze full of interest.
After a moment, the Captain began, “So, how much did you steal?”
Cao Xing was taken aback, “W-What?”
The Captain’s face turned serious, becoming exceptionally stern.
“Don’t think I don’t know; the shops in this city hold way more than those tens of thousands of Crowns.”
“You, kid, shouldn’t have just searched that Tavern, right?”
“Hand it over, and I’ll cover for you in the future.”
Upon hearing this, realization dawned in Cao Xing’s eyes. Official source ıs 𝚗𝚘𝚟𝚎𝚕·𝚏𝚒𝚛𝚎·𝚗𝚎𝚝
So this guy was eyeing his loot.
He hesitated deliberately for a moment and then, with a pained expression, pulled a note from his pocket.
Written on it was a denomination of 200,000…
And when the Captain saw the note, his pupils instantly widened, and his eyes lit up.
With lightning speed, he grabbed the note from Cao Xing’s hand!
After the Captain confirmed the amount on the note.
Even his breathing started to become rapid!
For people like them, 200,000 Crowns was an astonishing sum of money!
After the surprise, the Captain continued to look at Cao Xing.
Like a hungry wolf, he asked, “Is there more? Hand it all over!”
Cao Xing trembled as he said, “Just… just this much… Captain…”
“I had barely started when you guys caught me.”
“Honestly, there’s no more…”
Hearing this, the other gave Cao Xing a scrutinizing look, as if confirming if he was lying.
However, Mr. Cao’s acting skill was not top-notch, but deceiving these guys was rather simple.
The other found no flaw, so he didn’t continue to press further.
Then, with a face full of joy, he observed the 200,000 note in his hand.
He couldn’t help but sigh, “Not bad, not bad, 200,000, and even if I give a share to that guy, I can at least pocket 150,000 Crowns.”
“This money is enough for me to live happily for a long while!”
Hearing this, something stirred in Cao Xing’s heart.
Then, he cautiously asked, “M-Master… isn’t it that only people who have deposited money can withdraw it from Kadina Money Shop?”
“The owner of this shop is already dead; this note is useless, right?”
The other dismissed this with a sneer and then chuckled, “Who told you it’s useless? You think you can’t withdraw money from the dead?”
Cao Xing feigned surprise and asked, “Master, what do you mean?”
The Elite Captain boasted again, “Seeing as you’re so sensible, I’ll tell you.”
“The shopkeeper of Merlin City Money Shop is also one of our Church members. As long as he operates secretly and fabricates some documents, he can withdraw the money of the dead.”
“Of course, the guy is stingy as hell, so you have to give him a share.”
After hearing this, realization also appeared on Cao Xing’s face.
