67 Strange Elf
“When many people complete a mission together, and there’s only one spoil of war, how should we distribute it?” Andre pointed at the huge Sword Bone Demon Rhinoceros on the ground.

“It’s unrealistic to sell it immediately and split the money, so it’s usually a secret split. We’ll make a joint bid. The person who makes the highest bid will obtain the spoils of war. Then, we’ll pay half the price to the other party.”

Jeanne looked at Qing Niao. “Then it was all killed by Qing Niao alone this time. Aren’t they just sitting back and enjoying the fruits of his labor? Why should they take half?”

Andre smiled. “Without their information and without knowing its skills and characteristics, Qing Niao wouldn’t dare to fight head-on.

“That’s how the secret score is. It’s 50-50. Sometimes, it can be earned, and sometimes it can be lost. However, no matter what, the benefits will be taken by us Humans. It doesn’t matter.”

Fang Ping was a little puzzled. “Then will there be people who keep earning and are unwilling to suffer losses?”

“There might be, then no one will want to be his teammate. Moreover, if he obtains more resources and becomes stronger, he will also have to bear more responsibility.”

Fang Ping felt that Andre’s statement was too idealistic. Was this a theory of kindness?

Or was it because of the social atmosphere here?

Andre looked around at them. “How much do you think we should bid?”

Fang Ping and Jeanne shook their heads. Qing Niao opened his eyes, looking much better. He shook his head too. “Andre, what do you think?”

“Do you think we should go into the Dark Forest or go back?”

Fang Ping asked, “How do you ask this question?”

“If we want to go back, we can ask for a lower price because we have to find a way to transport it back. If we want to enter the Dark Forest, we have to ask for a higher price.

Of course, the travel expenses are split equally.”

Fang Ping had no concept of these things. He said, “I’m fine with anything. It’s up to you guys.”

“If you go back, you can collect the energy fragments and the Golden Body Potion. If you don’t go back, you can directly enter the Dark Forest. It depends on you.” Jeanne also expressed her thoughts.

Qing Niao didn’t say anything and looked at Andre.

“Alright, then let’s bid the median price and see how much they offer.” Andre counted on his fingers.

“The corpses of Excellent-level Magical Beasts usually cost 30,000 copper coins. There might be Skill Crystals. Based on the value of half of them, 4,500 copper coins, let’s bid 35,000 copper coins. What do you think?”

Ken seemed to have finished his discussion. He held a piece of paper in his hand and waited for Fang Ping’s results.

Andre also took out a card from his backpack, wrote the price, and walked towards Ken.

Then the two of them opened the paper in their hands at the same time. Thirty-five thousand coppers were written on the paper in Andre’s hand, and forty-one thousand coppers on the paper in Ken’s.

Andre smiled at Ken. “Your price is higher. It’s yours.”

Ken put the note away. “We’ve already earned it. Consider the toll a thousand coppers. Is that okay?”

“Sure.”

Ken opened his backpack and took out a cloth bag. Then, he began to count the money. Finally, he glanced at Fang Ping, then handed a stack of silver coins and bronze horns to Andre.

“Twenty thousand copper coins, six silver dragons, and twenty copper horns. Count them.”

“Okay.”

Andre counted the money and nodded. “That’s right. It’s yours.”

He waved at Fang Ping and the other two. “Let’s go.”

Then, Andre handed all the money to Qing Niao. “Qing Niao, how do we split the money? Tell me.”

If it was Fang Ping, they would probably split it evenly. The four of them would each get five thousand yuan.

However, the people here were more pragmatic. Qing Niao didn’t say that.

“I’ll take half. Three Silver Dragons and ten Bronze Horns.

Fang Ping and Jeanne each had a Silver Dragon and five bronze horns.

The remaining silver dragon is for Andre.”

There was no problem with the distribution. Fang Ping was very satisfied with earning a Silver Dragon today.

Looking back at the fallen Sword Bone Rhinoceros, he wondered if they had obtained the Skill Crystal.

Without thinking too much, he continued walking towards the Dark Forest.

The sun had already begun to set. As for whether it was in the west, Fang Ping did not know.

Walking into the Dark Forest, the surroundings instantly darkened. He did not know what the Dark Forest was like at night.

“Andre, where should we go?”

“The last time we came in, we encountered the army of Elves and beasts led by the traitor Mendes. I sensed their location last time. They seemed to have come from there.

Let’s not go over there this time. Let’s explore in the opposite direction.”

“They’re so strong and there are many of them. They even hate us Humans. Won’t they come and surround us?”

“Hahaha, Fang Ping, you’re too funny.”

Fang Ping heard Andre laughing softly. What did he say wrong this time?

“They are not the masters of the Dark Forest.

Do you really think that Elves and beasts can control the Dark Forest?

There are countless Magical Beasts in the Dark Forest. It’s already not bad that they can survive in the Dark Forest.”

Hearing Andre’s words, Fang Ping finally understood why he had come to the Dark Forest to train. Elves and wild beasts were one thing, but Magical Beasts were also targets for training.

“That’s right. That’s why many advanced students plan to find trouble with the Elves and Magical Beasts. I heard that there are scouting missions.”

“Really? I didn’t even know.” Andre still hoped to join the army.

Most of the advanced students also hoped to join the army.

With the aristocrats removed, the military held the real power.

Continuing forward, Fang Ping continued to use his special characteristics to scan his surroundings.

In an environment where the field of vision was less than ten meters, reconnaissance was very important.

“Failure granted. Target: Elven Archer, not the person.”

He discovered the Elf.

Fang Ping quickly grabbed Andre’s backpack in front of him. Qing Niao and Jeanne also stopped behind him.

He checked his surroundings again and realized that there was no one else around.

“There’s an Elf Archer in front. He’s alone,” Fang Ping said softly.

“Alright, Elf Archer, right? He probably didn’t expect that he had already been exposed. Fang Ping, give me a location. I’ll deal with him. You guys come back later.”

The Elven Archer was very strong when he shot arrows in the dark. His strength was very high. However, his health points were only 10. He believed that Andre could deal with him.

He kept using the special characteristics and watched as Andre and the Elf Archer approached. Then, only Andre was left.

“Let’s go. Andre took care of him.”

He walked over and found Andre squatting on the ground. He broke a piece of firewood and looked at the corpse of the Elf Archer on the ground with the weak light of the fire.

“Andre, what are you doing?”

“Come and take a look.”

Andre waved his hand without looking up.

Fang Ping walked over and took a look. He almost vomited.

The Elf’s slender body, beautiful and exquisite clothes, and two pointed ears proved his identity as an Elf.
