1230 Coffin Thief?
Chapter 1230 Coffin Thief?
"Oh right." Grey seemed to recall something and dropped some fruits.
He forgot about them since he didn't really think they were of any value. After dropping them, he stood there casually.
The son of the Dawson Family Head saw what Grey dropped and was a little surprised. Given Grey's personality, he didn't think he would hide anything if they were in such a predicament, he even dropped the fruits he saw him take the first time. Since these were the only things Grey dropped, then there was a high likelihood that they were the only things he took from this place.
'How can that be?' He asked himself.
He wasn't the only one who was asking that question. Everyone had dropped at least one thing of value, but Grey only dropped those dolls that looked useless and the fruits. Compared to what others dropped, the dolls and fruits didn't seem to have as much value as one of their treasures.
"Drop it!"
The voice said once again, this time, it was seething with anger.
"Are these the only things you got? Drop the treasure before you cause our deaths." Someone scolded Grey angrily.
Grey looked at the man but didn't reply, the creatures were getting closer to them. These beasts walked on all fours and looked like dogs, but there was a clear difference between them and dogs.
"Drop it!"
This time, the voice echoed in the Hall, making the ground shake.
"Are you crazy? Do you want us to die?" Someone else spoke up.
Grey was the only one whose items had the least value, so they all felt he was hiding something.
The golden robed man looked at Grey, he didn't see Grey as one who would endanger his life due to greed, "Are these the only thing you got?"
"The other thing is ingrained here, unless it wants me to forget it, there's nothing I can do." Grey pointed to his head.
He learned a technique, but that was while staring at a drawing. He was even careful and didn't allow Void to take a few things. Although, they weren't of any value so Void wasn't adamant about it.
Now that he had dropped the things with him, he was carefree.
The golden robed man stared at him for a long time and shook his head.
"Fine, but I hope you're not lying to me."
Grey nodded and didn't say anything else. If he took anything of importance, he would've dropped it.
Just when the creatures got close, a scene appeared before them and they understood something, the voice was speaking to any of them, rather, there was a man who was inside and was carrying a coffin.
The coffin was almost four meters long, but it was not an issue for this man. The man was one of them, but he didn't seem to be the same person. When they entered this place, he was only in the Seventh stage, but from the screen that appeared before them, even without going close, they could tell that he was already at the Peak of the Elemental Venerable Plane. This meant two things, either he perfectly hid his realm the first time, or he met with a tremendous fortuitous encounter.
Grey was the first to keep his items, along with the golden robed man.
Void and the bunny leader were currently nowhere to be seen and Grey knew they had gone treasure hunting. There were a few good things present, and given the nature of the duo, they would want to take a few.
'Don't steal anything from them… yet.' Grey said to Void.
It already seemed like he had drawn the ire of a few people present. If some things were to be lost, he would be the first one suspected again, even when he didn't do anything.
After taking his items, he went to the side to ensure that he wasn't standing close to anyone's treasures.
The creatures had surrounded them, and they knew that leaving this place would be difficult. But they had to keep their treasures first. That was the most important thing.
"You've all seen who the voice is referring to. What should we do now?" Grey asked.
They were not the ones who took the coffin, but they were the ones about to be attacked. If the creatures attacked, they would have to fend them off for someone who wouldn't want to give them any share of whatever he got.
"What can we do?" The golden robed man asked in a self-depreciating manner. There was no way to get past these things they must attack them. Even if they didn't want to fight with them, the creatures would still attack them.
The others all wore annoyed faces and one person suddenly spoke in an angered voice, "Who took it?"
While asking the question, he turned to everyone that was around him. When taking back the treasures he dropped, he noticed one of them was missing. This thing was almost insignificant, but it was the most important thing in his collection.
Those around him looked at him with an odd expression.
The man was in the Ninth stage of the Elemental Venerable Plane. He was about to snap when he heard the voice of the golden robed man.
"There shall be no infighting until we're out of our current predicament." The golden robed man snorted coldly.
One of the creatures suddenly attacked, and the rest did the same.
Grey stood in front of Cori, and without taking a single wave of his hand, he sent the creature flying, crashing into the other creatures.
The second the creature crashed into them, it exploded with a powerful force, killing all the others close to it.
When Grey attacked it, he sent a fusion orb as well with it, helping wipe out more of the creatures with just one attack.
The golden robed man attacked as well, sending the creatures in front of him flying.
The others attacked too, keeping the creatures away from them.
