Chapter 20: Richard’s Murderous Intent
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Under the moonlight.
Hearing her words, Giles looked at Alina curiously.
He was indeed curious about Alina’s motives.
Previously, he thought that Alina had something to back her up, but based on her performance today, there was nothing special.
Her Four-eyed Spirit Cat was just an ordinary Gold-rank spirit beast, and its combat strength was also ordinary.
In fact, during the day, she had been ambushed by many ferocious beasts. If not for the King Kong Beast’s timely reaction, she would have died.
Is she really just indifferent about life and death?
Giles thought to himself. Then, he said, “I’m indeed curious.”
Alina looked at the bright moon and told Giles her motive.
It turned out that Alina had contracted a disease.
If she could not be cured, she would not live past 22 years old.
She was already 21 years old.
It was not long before she reached the end of her life.
This disease could only be cured by a spirit herb unique to Grant Forest, but it was extremely rare.
Alina searched the market for a long time but could not find it.
The end of her life was approaching.
Alina happened to see the mission that Rex posted on the Beast Tamers’ exclusive website and decided to take a gamble.
Hence, she participated in this operation.
Giles could only sigh at that.
It was no wonder that Alina had no fear about danger.
She knew that she was about to die, but could not stop it. She could only watch as time passed and slowly approached the end of her life. What could be more terrifying than this?
Giles didn’t know what to say.
He could only comfort Alina, “It’s alright. You’ll definitely be able to find that herb.”
Alina smiled.
“That herb is too rare. I’ve already accepted it.”
“It’s best if I can find it. Even if I can’t, it can’t be forced.”
Hearing this, Giles said nothing else and looked up at the moon.
Alina said nothing more.
The night passed uneventfully.
Soon, daytime arrived.
Giles and Alina continued to follow the Three-headed Hellhound.
On the other hand, Bart was trekking through the forest alone.
There was a hint of fear on his face, but he still forced himself to look around vigilantly.
Rex had taken Bart with him when they escaped.
However, because they encountered other Epic-rank beasts along the way, the two of them had gotten split up.
Right now, Bart just wanted to meet up with his grandfather as soon as possible. After all, he was only a Gold-rank Beast Tamer.
In this forest, there were many Epic-rank beasts, and Bart could be said to be on the brink of death.
Just then…
Bart saw a tree and he narrowed his eyes.
To be precise, he was looking at the white fruit on the tree.
That was the Wind Spirit Fruit.
This fruit contained a trace of the power of wind. Epic-rank could awaken the power of wind after eating it for a long time and advance to the Legend rank.
This fruit was extremely rare.
It could not be found on the market.
There were at least five or six of them on the tree in front of him.
Bart’s heart was pounding, and his eyes were ablaze.
Just as he was about to pluck them…
A deep voice came from behind, “Wind Spirit Fruit? Haha, the resources in Grant Forest are truly abundant.”
Bart quickly spun around.
When he saw who it was, his expression froze.
It was Richard.
Without looking at Bart, he walked straight to the Wind Spirit Fruit.
“Senior Richard, I discovered this first.”
Bart suppressed his anger and spoke to Richard.
“It’s okay. I’ll make it up to you.”
Richard glanced at him before plucking the Wind Spirit Fruit.
Bart’s face turned pale, but he couldn’t say anything.
The reason for that was because his grandfather was not here at the moment.
He couldn’t stop Richard who was at Epic rank.
He could only suppress the anger in his heart and wait to meet up with his grandfather before pursuing this matter.
“What are you waiting for? Quickly bring me to meet your grandfather.”
Richard scolded Bart again.
Bart got even angrier, but he didn’t say anything.
Instead, he walked ahead silently.
…
On the other hand, Giles and Alina were still traveling.
As the forest ahead became more and more dense, the Three-Headed Hellhound also had difficulty in differentiating.
It had to smell for a long time each time to determine the route.
All of a sudden, the Three-headed Hellhound looked stunned. Then, it barked at Giles.
Through spiritual communication with it, Giles understood what it meant.
The Three-Headed Hellhound spotted someone ahead.
Giles and Alina quickened their pace at the news.
Soon, they passed through a dense forest and arrived at an empty area.
They could vaguely make out the figures in front of them.
However, only when they walked closer did they realize that it was Bart and Richard.
“Bart? Where’s your Grandpa Rex?”
Giles was surprised that Bart was not with Rex.
On the other hand, Bart was startled to see Giles and Alina appear.
Before he escaped, he clearly saw Giles and the others being surrounded by four Epic-rank beasts.
Even if Giles had that unusual Silver-rank spirit beast, he definitely wouldn’t have been able to escape. It was a sure-death situation.
However, the person, who in his mind should have died, suddenly came back to life.
He was shocked.
However, when he thought of the Giles’ other spirit beasts, he immediately understood.
One can’t look at Giles using common sense.
“I got separated from my grandfather. I ran into Senior Richard not long ago.”
Bart cast Richard a hateful glance as he answered Giles.
If it weren’t for Richard, the Wind Spirit Fruit would have been his.
When I find Grandpa, I must make him cough it out!
Bart thought to himself.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Richard was unceremoniously sizing Giles up.
Needless to say, he was also extremely shocked that Giles and Alina had survived.
After all, four Epic-rank giant pythons had appeared.
It was unbelievable that two Gold-rank Beast Tamers could escape from four Epic-rank beasts.
Richard suddenly had a vicious thought in his mind.
Leave Giles in this forest forever.
As the arch-enemy of the previous gym leader, the two had been fighting openly and covertly for many years.
Now that he suddenly saw Giles’ impressive performance, Richard instantly had the thought of killing Giles.
However, he had to be more discreet.
As he thought this, Richard glanced at Bart. His previous thoughts had also changed.
He knew that if he met up with Rex, Rex would definitely find out about him snatching the Wind Spirit Fruit.
Rex would definitely force him to cough it out.
This was because the Wind Spirit Fruit was extremely rare. It was something that all Epic-rank Beast Tamers desired.
The biggest difference between an Epic-rank spirit beast and a Legend-rank spirit beast was the Power of the Universe.
In order to possess the Power of the Universe, aside from some extremely talented spirit beasts that could understand it themselves, the rest could only rely on eating spirit fruits that contained the Power of the Universe to accumulate such powers.
One could imagine how precious this spirit fruit was.
Naturally, Richard did not want to share it with Rex.
Of course, he still did not want to fall out with Rex right now.
After all, he still needed Rex to lead him to the Epic-rank beast that was about to have a breakthrough.
That matter had to be carried out over there.
There was only one way.

It was to shut everyone up.
A hint of viciousness flashed across Richard’s eyes when he thought of this.
Only the dead will not be able to speak.
