Hearing this, Lloyd and his disciple, who was leaving, stopped in their tracks.Lloyd turned around quickly and stared at Chace in great disbelief.“What are you saying? Your disciple can produce a high-quality talisman?!” Lloyd asked suspiciously. He did not believe in Chace’s words.From what he knew, Chace’s disciple had only studied for a few days. How could it be possible that he was able to produce a high-quality secret technique talisman? In fact, his disciple was only able to produce a middle-quality talisman after studying for almost two months.Nevertheless, just because his disciple couldn't do it, it didn’t mean that Gerald couldn't do it either.“Chace, how long has your disciple been following you?” Chadrick asked.“Five days, Great Master.”Chace answered honestly.“Impossible!”“Great Master, this is absolutely impossible. Chace must be lying to you. How is it possible that his disciple can produce a high-quality talisman after learning for just five days?!”B
“Alright, let’s begin!”Chadrick nodded and signaled for him to start.Once he had said that, Gerald quickly took the brush and started drawing on the talisman paper.Gerald drew the patterns from his memory. He had decided to give a hard slap to the faces of Lloyd and Nolan so that he could make his tutor proud.Therefore, Gerald did not plan to produce a high-quality secret technique talisman. In fact, he planned to produce a higher quality one, that was, a rare-quality secret technique talisman, which was none other than the golden dragon talisman that he had succeeded in doing today.However, there was one concern he had. He had only succeeded in drawing the golden dragon talisman after practicing a few times. He wasn’t sure if he would be successful this time.So, Gerald knew that he had to take a chance.Honestly speaking, producing a high-quality secret technique talisman was not a problem at all to Gerald. He could draw the patterns easily. However, he knew he could not
“A talisman of perfect quality!”Chace exclaimed in great surprise when he saw this.The golden light was shining brightly with the purple qi drifting from the east, and the white mist surrounded them. It was a magnificent scene.That’s right. Gerald had actually produced a perfect quality secret technique talisman!“This. How could this be possible?!”Lloyd, who was standing on the side, could not believe what he was seeing. He shouted with his eyes wide open.Although he did not believe it, it did not change the fact that it was right before his eyes. At the same time, Chadrick was equally flabbergasted. He didn’t expect that Gerald would actually produce a perfect quality secret technique talisman as he knew perfectly well that even he himself was unable to do so.“You. How did you do it?”Chadrick asked Gerald immediately.“Great Master, I just kept practicing and exploring. Before I came here, I had already produced a rare-quality talisman successfully!” Gerald answered
“Wow, this is the badge of a One-rank Talisman Master. So, you have become a tutor?”Before Gerald could even reply, Yoshua had already noticed the One-rank Talisman Master on his chest and cheered in surprise.Yoshua could easily recognize the badge because Chace Hunt had a Two-rank Talisman Master badge.“Yes, Master Zahn. However, I must thank you a lot for this. It was you who gave me such a good opportunity to become the disciple of Master Hunt and get to where I am today!”Gerald was an appreciative person. It was only natural that he would be grateful to Yoshua.“Ha! Ha!”“It’s not a big deal at all. It’s the result of your hard work!”Yoshua waved his hand at Gerald as he laughed.Seeing Gerald successful made Yoshua happy. At least it made him feel that he had not helped the wrong person.“Oh right, Master Zahn. Why don’t I see Nori anywhere?”Gerald then asked Yoshua in confusion.Nori had always stayed by Yoshua’s side. However, she was not with him today, which m
After preparing for almost two hours, Gerald was fully equipped.He returned to the residence of the Zahn family once again, and he saw Yoshua and Patrick, who were just about to leave for the army camp nearest to the holy mountain. Seeing Gerald come back made Yoshua very surprised.He had previously thought that Gerald did not want to bother about this matter. But now, seeing that he was fully equipped, he knew that the latter had gone to make preparations just now.“Master Zahn, I hope I can go save Nori as well!”Gerald looked at Yoshua and said righteously.Although Gerald and Nori were not romantically involved with each other, he saw Nori as his best friend.Now that Nori was in a very dangerous situation, Gerald could not just sit still. He had to go and save her.“Gerald.”“Master Zahn, Nori is my best friend. I cannot just leave her alone!”Yoshua wanted to say something, but Gerald interrupted immediately.Hearing Gerald’s words, Yoshua felt warmth in his heart,
The holy mountain was a few thousand meters above sea level. The higher up the mountain, the lower the temperature and atmospheric pressure would be. Moreover, the condition on the mountain was very harsh now. The wind was fierce, and the snow was heavy. It was very dangerous.Hence, it could be said that the rescue mission to the holy mountain this time was very risky.“Everyone, since there will be a Force 6 wind as well as a snowstorm tonight, we have decided to set the departure time at seven o'clock tomorrow morning. I hope that everyone can rest well tonight to conserve your energy!”Soon, Patrick came and informed Gerald and the rest.Tonight was going to be a sleepless night.As the night was getting old, Gerald leaned on his backpack alone and closed his eyes for a short rest.Just then, he heard something.Gerald opened his eyes immediately and looked in the direction of the camp Quest and the other two were staying. He saw two figures sneaking out of the tent, and the
“Captain Wang, we… Both of us are just ordinary people! W-we’re afraid of dying too, you know…?!” stammered Kaleb as he lowered his head, not even daring to look into Patrick’s eyes. “You…!” growled Quest, growing more infuriated by the second. “So… Let me get this straight. Both of you are trying to secretly escape just because you’re afraid of dying?” said Gerald as he added more fuel to the fire. After all, he didn’t really have much of a good impression on the duo. Regardless, upon hearing Gerald’s words, Kaleb and Malcolm were so embarrassed that they could only further lower their heads. Boiling mad, Quest then suggested, “People like these two… They should be captured, Captain Wang!” Upon hearing that, Patrick paused for a moment. Turning back to look at Quest, he then casually said, “…Just… forget it... It’s not a crime to fear death!” Capturing them was a bit unnecessary. After all, the duo hadn’t really done anything illegal to warrant Quest’s suggestion. Either
“I apologize for my earlier bad attitude. With that said, I hope we can cooperate throughout this rescue mission!” said Quest. Not one to fuss over such small matters, Gerald was starting to feel that Quest was actually a rather nice person. What more, Quest was a professional adventurer with great courage and an adventurous spirit. With that in mind, Gerald found himself smiling as he returned Quest’s handshake while saying, “Likewise. Regardless, allow me to formally introduce myself. Gerald Crawford!” “Quest Leane!” replied Quest with his own smile. Following that, both of them then began chatting rather cheerfully till they eventually drifted off to sleep at around three in the morning… By seven the next morning, all fifteen of the rescue team members had already assembled and were ready to set off for the holy mountain. Being the pioneer of the group, Quest was the first in line, followed by Gerald, Patrick, then the other members of the team. Fortunately, the weathe
