After leaving the team, the adventurer ladies regretted it deeply Chapter 639

Chapter 639: 461, the fourth Sunrise Level, Lin Da's program

Aiko was so teased by everyone that she couldn't lift her head and said in mock anger, “Keep talking nonsense, and I'll lock all of you up in the confinement room!”

“Hahaha, turns out the Young Lady can also be shy.”

Laughter filled the air again, all in good spirit.

Including Bervis, everyone from Holy Rock Adventure Team was smiling. Due to Aiko and Lin Da's arrival, the gloom lingering in their eyes had considerably dissipated.

After the pleasantries, Lin Da turned serious and said, “I just heard some noise coming from the top floor and planned to go and check it out with Aiko.”

Bervis was overjoyed and about to agree when a mocking voice came from behind:

“An outsider adventurer, what qualifies you to attend the tri-team meeting in South Rock City?”

Turning to look at the source, the team members of Holy Rock showed angry expressions.

The burly man carrying a double-bladed axe retorted, “Bear Xiong, you who are too cowardly to even accept Bervis's challenge, what right do you have to speak to us?”

“Nonsense, I was just feeling unwell!”

Wearing a golden chain with muscles all over, Bear Xiong glared fiercely, his nostrils expelling two heavy breaths.

Eleven beastmen team members stepped forward in unison, confronting the people from Holy Rock head-on.

Tens of auras clashed against each other, shaking the ground beneath their feet and vibrating the glass. Paintings used for decoration in the hall even started to crack.

Both sides were on the verge of drawing swords, their eyes red with the threat of imminent battle.

Lin Da felt a chill in his heart upon seeing this scene.

The undercurrents within South Rock City were more turbulent than he had thought.

Bervis's eyes flickered, and he extended a hand to block in front of the double-bladed axe man.

“Deputy captain?” the burly man asked in surprise.

Bervis kept a poker face and said, “Do you all want to be caught by the knights of the Law Enforcement Group? Even the Sun Adventure Group can't break the rules.”

“If you're too scared to fight, just say it. Making excuses is pointless.” Bear Xiong's momentum increased by threefold, pointing arrogantly at Lin Da, “I do have some matters, though, that I'd like to discuss with this kid.”

“You may ask, but let your captain do it,” Lin Da responded coldly, “A deputy captain is not enough.”

“You, newly promoted to the Moon Rank, dare to talk to me like this?”

No sooner had the words fallen, than a black bear paw, as large as a fan, suddenly reached for Lin Da's head!

The nails on it flickered coldly, sharp as knives; even a rock, it seemed, could be sliced through like tofu!

Lin Da, suspecting that his killing of Hu Er might have been exposed, couldn't believe the beastman was acting so recklessly.

In a moment of thought, Lin Da raised his hand and swiftly grabbed Bear Xiong's wrist.

Lin Da's arm was of average size, while Bear Xiong's hand was covered with black hair and thick as a thigh. The two could not be more different, like comparing a cat's paw to a tiger's.

Yet it was that “cat's paw” which held Bear Xiong's wrist firmly, making him unable to move.

Bear Xiong's face changed color; he clenched his teeth tightly, concentrating all his strength in his right hand.

To his astonishment, he still could not move Lin Da in the slightest.

Even as his face turned red and veins on his forehead nearly burst, the outcome remained unchanged.

The onlookers were all seasoned Moon Order members, with keen eyesight.

Instantly, they discerned that Lin Da's strength was no less than that of Bear Xiong!

Ming Tu, the vice-captain of the Zijing Stone Family, who had intended to help, stopped in his tracks, pondering in his eyes.

“Young man, not bad at all!” said the double-bladed axe man, surprised.

Having been promoted to the Moon Rank not long ago, and to stand equal with Bear Xiong already.

A few more years of growth, and who knows what he'd become.

It seemed that Holy Rock Adventure Team had found a treasure!

Bervis too looked shocked; he had not expected Lin Da's strength to have reached this level in just one month.

When they had last met, Lin Da's entire team barely managed to beat him.

But now, one on one, Bervis had no confidence in winning against Lin Da.

“This kid… he must not be treated as a newbie!”

Bervis was both shocked and delighted.

What he valued most was Lin Da's status as the captain of Phoenix Tail Flower Team. With Lin Da stepping in, even a “rookie” Sun Adventure Group could make both Bear Roar and the Zijing Stone Family wary.

“The content of this meeting was precisely about how to improve relations with White Dove City,

and it just so happens that a representative of the adventurers from White Dove City is here, in person. Isn't it much stronger than you and I making wild guesses?”

Holy Rock believes that Captain Phoenix Tail Flower is fully qualified to participate in the meeting!”

Bervis walked over, placed a hand on the shoulders of both, and Earth System Fighting Spirit surged out, separating the two parties.

Feeling the Earth System Fighting Spirit lingering within him, Lin Da took another glance at Bervis.

This Smiling Swordsman left a much stronger impression on him than Bear Xiong.

Holy Rock indeed lived up to its reputation as a venerable adventure team.

“Go ahead,” Bervis signaled with his eyes, leading the team members to block the entrance to the staircase.

Meanwhile, Bear Xiong, massaging his reddened wrist, stood still, watching Lin Da and Aiko head to the top floor with discontent.

The tri-team council had always been held on the top floor of Paradise Hometown.

In the grand conference hall, it was cold and empty with only three people present.

At the round table, each of the three captains occupied one side.

Rocher was wearing a brown coat with an empty right sleeve, clenching his left fist in anger.

“Are you two threatening me?” his voice seemed to be brewing a thunderstorm, ready to erupt at any time.

But upon seeing his empty right shoulder, Lorrace and Bear Ji couldn't help laughing together.

“Captain Rochelle, I'm doing this for your own good,” Lorrace said with a light sigh, “You were injured in the battle with the Forest Dragon and then attacked by demons; your condition is worsening. If you continue to delay, even my family's treasure, the 'Green Dragon's Blessing' Potion, won't be able to save your crippled Magic Circuit.”

“Captain Lorrace is right,” Bear Ji said as he leisurely groomed the white hair on his chest, smiling, “Captain Lorrace's son, Pick, and Holy Rock's Aiko, are truly a match made in heaven. If I were you, I'd be so happy I couldn't sleep for three days.”
