My Fusion System: Fusing a Thousand Chickens at the Start

Chapter 276: A Gold-tier Adventurer

“Ah!”

A few seconds after Christina severed the Adventurers’ Association, the young ladies behind the counter finally stood up. Their faces were filled with fear.

The other adventurers also broke out in a cold sweat. Some of the timid ones had already fallen to the ground. Many of them had heard of the swordmistress’ name, but that was the first time they had seen her attack. They had not expected her to be so terrifying.

Was the young man named Watson?

They were concerned about Watson after witnessing the power of Christina’s blade; it could even cut the heavens into two. Watson was only a young man. Could he endure that move, or had his body already been divided in half?

“The Holy Sword adventurer team will cover any damages today. I will arrange for someone to transfer the funds later! As for the bet, I will keep my promise and won’t bother you anymore.”

Christina straightened her posture and placed her right hand on the table. Then, she walked away without looking back.

Nobody paid Christina any attention. Everybody’s eyes widened in surprise when they saw Watson. The young man appeared to be in good shape following the attack. He remained in the same position. Apparently, the sword energy could cut through anything in its way.

“It can’t be. That young man managed to block the swordmistress’ attack?”

The adventurers widened their eyes. The swordmistress had only just advanced to the platinum tier. Additionally, Watson took no action when he blocked the attack. He did not use any magic or martial arts skills. It was as if he had used his body to ward off the attack. What level was he supposed to be? Was he also a platinum-tier elite?

Watson appeared to be only 12 or 13 years old. Could he have been a platinum-tier elite at that tender age?

While everyone made guesses about him, Watson appeared helpless. The swordmistress’ stroke merely caused cut off his hair; she did not hurt him. It was not because he had used any magic or skills to block that attack; he had worn the platinum-tier armor he had crafted on Mount Creation. Ordinary platinum-tier attacks would not be able to penetrate his defenses.

He had intended to perform a gold-tier spell so that he could block the swordmistress’ blow but barely. They would think that he was struggling. However, he forgot that his armor was not only platinum-tier but they were made in Mount Creation. They were stronger than ordinary platinum-tier items.

It seemed like he had become even more unfathomable in everyone’s hearts.

“Thank you for your mercy, Lady Swordmistress. Otherwise, I’m afraid that I would have been split into two! By the way, what is the result of my test?”

Watson only asked Christina after a long stretch of silence.

He knew that he had already exposed his strength in front of Christina, so he needed to save the situation.

“So, she had been lenient with him; that was how he had won.”

“I was right. Lady Swordmistress has just advanced to the platinum tier. If she had used her platinum-tier strength to attack him, that youth would have definitely died! Lady Swordmistress must have controlled herself and reduced her strength to gold-tier or even silver-tier.”

Hearing that, Christina did not respond. The adventurers present all heaved a sigh of relief. They had suspected that Watson was a twelve or thirteen-year-old platinum-tier, but it looked like it was something they could debunk. A platinum-tier elite at such a young age? There was no precedent in the entire history of the Holy Dragon Kingdom. If Watson could do it, would that not mean he was even more talented than the swordmistress? It was too unrealistic.

“Watson, you must be gold-tier. I would not be surprised if you join a team and they eventually become a famous gold-tier adventurer team.”

Christina stopped and spoke without turning her head.

“Gold-tier? For real? Miss Christina, you think too highly of me. Actually, I can accept silver-tier as well!” Watson shouted again. Christina turned around; there was a complicated expression on her beautiful face.

After a long look at Watson, she said, “As you wish. Whether you believe you are silver or gold-tier, my response is still the same. It won’t change.”

Christina abruptly exited the Adventurer’s Association after replying to Watson. Blake and the others, who were controlling Claude were behind her, left after they gazed at Watson.

Regardless of how Christina controlled her strength, Watson was able to withstand her sword without a scratch. Additionally, Christina extended a cordial invitation to him to become the Holy Sword adventurer team’s vice-captain. Those two points were sufficient for all the Holy Sword members to remember Watson’s name.

The Adventurers’ Association rapidly resumed its lively mood following Christina’s departure. The adventurers looked at Watson fiercely; some were even compelled to walk nearer to the young man. Someone asked enthusiastically, “Are you interested in joining our adventurer team, Young Master Watson? We are a bronze-tier adventurer team at its peak.” Another person said, “We are even better. We are a team of silver-tier adventurers. We simply lack an elite of your level, Young Master Watson.”

They found it unusual when Christina cordially welcomed Watson into her group. Finally, they understood that she was a platinum-tier elite with great taste.

The young man was a genius, perhaps one of the best in the entire kingdom. With such a genius in one’s adventurer team, would they need to worry about their ranking?

Watson was under no obligation to react to those individuals. Annie had already extended her arms to shield Watson as she yelled, “All of you, get lost. We were the ones who discovered Young Master Watson. He has already decided to join us.”

Even Clyde and the others acted to keep Watson away from the other adventurers; they wanted Watson to stay with them. They did that due to Watson’s power and because he had declined Christina’s offer. So, they saw him as one of their own.

Watson approached the lady behind the counter and asked, oblivious to the commotion around him. “Miss Catherine has tested my strength. May I now join the Blood Rose team and get my identity token?”

“Young Master Watson, this is your identity token. Please keep it well.”

The two females behind the desk exchanged adoring smiles. They removed a golden token engraved with a rose. The rose produced a faint crimson glow and steam as if it had just been carved with magic. Additionally, the word Gold was printed on the back of the token.

“From now on, the Blood Rose adventurer team will be officially promoted from bronze to gold-tier.”

“Gold is a little too high. Can’t you promote us to silver-tier instead?”

Watson made no attempt to remove the nameplate. Instead, he had a question. He thought that the gold tier was somewhat pretentious, particularly at his age.

His words made the two young ladies’ faces stiffen. They did not know how to respond to him. They had worked there for many years, but that was the first time they met an adventurer who did not wish to have a higher evaluation for his test.

“I’m sorry, Mr. Watson. Miss Swordswoman has already stated that your strength is gold-tier, which proves that she used gold-tier swordsmanship! Furthermore, so many people had witnessed it. The Adventurer’s Association is an impartial organization; we would never cheat.

When the other adventurers heard that, they looked at Watson with a strange expression. However, they did not pay too much attention to it. After a while, they started to quarrel again.

“Alright, gold-tier it is then.”

Watson took the nameplate and hung it around his neck. He fiddled with it a few times and took a deep breath. No matter what, he was officially a gold-tier adventurer. He could find time to get to the underground maze and finish his master’s mission.
