Reincarnation of the Strongest Healer

Chapter 1407: Sunrise Inner City Part 24

10 minutes had gone by, and Xu Feng’s group officially entered the boss’s room.

Needless to say, Lightning Blade had returned to the team 7 minutes earlier.

His face was drained of color, and his movement was sluggish.

He was porcupined to death and got revived on the spot. When he saw his guildmates again, he nearly cried in tears of joy.

At that moment, many people couldn’t help but give Xu Feng some glances.

A proud and confident young man reduced to such a state. Just how much of a trauma did he have to go through?

"Ahem, now we just need to wait for Dark Night to die and regroup with us." Xu Feng cleared his throat and feigned ignorance of their obvious stares.

What was he supposed to do?

He believed Lightning Blade could easily go through this trauma.

If it wasn’t for this trust, then he wouldn’t have chosen him to become the bait.

Someone who could climb back up despite the unfair setback was definitely not someone you could underestimate. Doing so would just put yourself at a disadvantage.

Still, he wanted to soothe things over, so he faced Lightning Blade.

"Blade, you did well." He complimented and continued, "For your effort in baiting, you will directly earn 1,000 GMP."

Sure enough, the colorless in Lightning Blade’s eyes regained its color.

Like a phoenix that had just undergone nirvana and rebirth, Lightning Blade started laughing wildly.

"Hahaha, the Guild Leader is magnanimous!" He stood up and cheered loudly.

Instantly, those sympathetic gazes and condolences from fellow guildmates disappeared.

Replacing them was full of disdain and anger.

We were just consoling you earlier, and now you went ahead and robbed 1,000 GMP like that?

Let it be known that GMP was extremely difficult for them to earn!!!

1,000 GMP was almost equivalent to 1-2 weeks of hard work from them to gather.

At this moment, every member wished they were chosen for the baiting strategy.

Die once, and you get 1,000 GMP??

SIGN US UP PLEASE!!!

By now, Lightning Blade was over the moon. He even made sure to flash a peace symbol toward Blue Star and VenomPulse.

When the two saw that sign, they simply rolled their eyes and cursed silently in their heart.

Hmph, you just got lucky!

Let’s see if you’re that fortunate later on!

While everything seemed fine, Veronica subtly approached Xu Feng and reminded him.

"That 1,000 GMP you grant is coming out of your pocket." She whispered softly.

Xu Feng’s expression quickly turned somewhat pale.

Out of his paycheck?

Truth be told, Veronica now controlled most of the guild funds because of her administration work and allocation of funds. This even included Xu Feng’s own salary, which was set at 1 gold coin per month. Because let’s be honest, who could really tell Xu Feng he was only getting this "X" amount when he was the Guild Leader?

Still, he respected Veronica and knew that he could forget about trying to get a bigger share in the next dividends.

Sometime later, the tethered link he attached to Dark Night triggered.

"Hmm, seems like Night also fell in battle. If he doesn’t complain, you can keep the GMP quiet. Otherwise, what he received will be a cut from you all." Xu Feng turned to the rest and smiled amiably.

And sure enough, every member present realized what the hidden meaning was.

Keep quiet and pretend the 1,000 GMP didn’t happen. After all, even the Guild Leader himself would suffer if he handed over another 1,000 GMP.

Shortly after Xu Feng revived Dark Night...

"GASP!!" Dark Night took in a deep breath and glanced around. Never once had he actually felt so frightened by a dungeon raid.

Those mobs were simply inhumane. They predicted his movement trajectory, locked him down, and even attempted to interrogate him to extract information.

Left without any choice, Dark Night wanted to unstuck, which essentially meant self-death.

But little did he know... the enemies actually revived him and even prevented him from being able to unstuck.

What a traumatizing event that was!!!

"Guild Leader, this dungeon is too abnormal." Dark Night cried aloud and relayed the event. He completely lost his composure and was reduced to no different than a 3-year-old.

"There there, you are safe now." Xu Feng lightly patted his shoulders and consoled him. "Blade, hurry up and tell him your tragic story, too. The two of you share the same plight now."

As if on cue, Lightning Blade quickly snapped out of his daze.

"Right, I was also tortured and interrogated. They even stripped me bare!" Lightning Blade started wailing and exaggerated his predicament.

Maybe because the trauma was too much, Dark Night actually failed to notice anything amiss and simply uttered, "You too?"

Meanwhile, the others were quick to label Lightning Blade as despicable.

Brother, you were only shot with arrows into a porcupine.

Dark Night himself seemed to have been stripped of any rights!

Moreover, you even gained 1,000 GMP. Do you still have any shame?

Poor Dark Night was being played like a fiddle by Lightning Blade.

However, not a single one had the guts to call out Blade’s behavior. After all, they were also guilty of wanting to hoard the 1,000 GMP for themselves.

"Okay, save the emotional drama for later. Start to focus, as we’ll begin the boss fight soon." Xu Feng clasped his hands and reminded them all that they were here to raid a dungeon.

He believed giving Dark Night a few minutes to vent a bit was enough. There was no way Dark Night was truly that affected and traumatized, right?

And indeed, every member of the Vanguard Guild was shrewder than the other.

"Guild Leader... Do I deserve any GMP?" While getting consoled by Lightning Blade softly, Dark Night subtly peeked at Xu Feng with puppy eyes.

Are you all here to haggle for GMP or do a dungeon raid???!

That was the thought going through Xu Feng’s mind, who found his member turning more and more like him.

It was a bit... uneasy.
