Goblin Dependency
Chapter 1152 - 570: Return, Advancement, Infighting, Surprise Attack (Part 3)The words superficially seemed to care for the greater good, but in reality, they failed to fulfill the responsibilities a Captain should have. You could even say it completely favored "Fink."
By not resolving the issue on the spot and letting the resentment of the person involved grow, it was akin to personally planting the seeds of hatred deep in Leslie’s heart.
As Captain, Sefeng certainly knew that what he did might not be the best solution to resolve the internal conflict at the moment.
But...
Honestly, he himself was not clean.
In the final stages of the Secret Realm, when he faced that wolf beast adventurer whose strength far exceeded the ordinary, he too betrayed his teammates.
Even worse than Fink, he killed two teammates who were possessed in the bodies of a squirrel and a grasshopper, to temporarily absorb their Life Energy and evolve.
It seems the resentment of these two was not small either, but they just couldn’t act out due to his identity as Captain.
If he punished Fink because of this, how should he treat the two teammates he had killed with his own hands?
It’s not like he could punish himself, right?
Given Sefeng’s authority and control in the team, he would never do anything that would damage his own image and status.
Thus, the on-site farce could only be forcibly covered by him in this unresolved manner.
Meanwhile, opposite the "Wind Forger," which had a faint trend of internal discord, was the "Furious Tide Battle Gang," whose atmosphere was equally stagnant.
Luck was not on their side; the team members of "Furious Tide Battle Gang" rarely had opportunities to meet in the Secret Realm, so there wasn’t any contradiction like that of the "Wind Forger."
All eyes, subtle as it was, crossed the crowd and focused on their Captain, the half-dwarf barbarian "Iron Grid."
Iron Grid certainly hadn’t committed the kind of betrayal Sefeng had towards his teammates, but on the other hand, his actions had a more severe negative impact on the whole team’s survival in the Secret Realm.
It should be known that most of the "Furious Tide Battle Gang" members caught in the Secret Realm, while still unclear about the ritual’s mechanism, strictly followed their Captain’s previous instructions to handle similar situations. After getting slightly familiar with the surroundings, they produced a large number of badges to confirm their identity, hoping to quickly gather teammates.
In the end, they found very few teammates, but instead attracted other hostile adventurers.
This caused the members of the "Furious Tide Battle Gang" to die at a rate in the Secret Realm even faster than the "Wind Forger," which had internal strife.
For a moment, the gaze of the crowd at Iron Grid’s back was filled with intriguing meaning.
Iron Grid, with a similarly tough personality, of course, couldn’t admit his mistakes to his team on the spot.
Suddenly, as if he had seen something, he shifted his gaze to the side of the coast, changing the topic.
There, Xia Nan, who had fallen into the sea earlier, had already swum back to the shore and was walking step by step up the shallows.
The "Wind Forger" also noticed his presence.
Their view was unobstructed, perhaps due to the absence of combat, they couldn’t recognize his wolf beast identity in the Secret Realm, but from the lingering bluish light that gradually faded as the Secret Realm shattered, they realized that this "Haiya" must have endured until the final stage of the Secret Realm.
Fink, overwhelmed by his colleagues’ questions and unable to vent his inner rage, gazed at Xia Nan, who had slowly walked to the shore.
With a gloomy expression, he rudely said coldly:
"Hey! Over there, what was the situation at the end of the Secret Realm?"
But what responded to him was a volley of Magic Missiles formed by Force Field Energy from a blind spot in his rear peripheral vision.
Already in a state of severe injury and weakness due to dying in the Secret Realm.
Fink only managed to make a barely defensive maneuver, and all four Magic Missiles had already hit him.
Two hit his abdomen and thigh, one impacted his shoulder, and the last one landed straight on his temple.
"Bang!"
Accompanied by the splash of red and white viscous liquid.
One by one, figures covered with scales emerged to the surface amidst the characteristic shrill screams of the Sha Hua Fishmen.
