Chapter 291 Totally Filling Three Rings
Ibra knew how shameless William was. So, he didn't want to end this up by being all alone inside the forest and decided to lower his head this time to this kid.
Dissecting monsters and storing them inside the rings didn't take any longer than dragging the dissected pieces and moving them into the array. William's efficiency didn't drop, and in fact it slightly increased.
He didn't need to dissect monsters to every single material he could salvage from them. He simply cut them into smaller pieces, stored all inside.
Unlike what Ibra did, William made sure to not harm a single material in the process. And after an hour, and after Ibra exhausted himself in killing the army of monkeys that came at them, the two finally crossed the distance they passed through before, collecting all the monsters they killed before.
And right now, William's three rings were filled to the brim with materials.
"Let's go back," William decided to call it a day. He fought for so long, ended up getting one more gold core, lots of silver and bronze cores as well as materials and cores for the team.
He made sure to not mix the cores he killed with the ones Ibra killed. As there was a big difference between the two for him.
"At last!" Ibra heaved a sigh of relief. He was deadly tired and exhausted. He didn't like fighting like this while they got an entire team of spirit masters sleeping and resting inside.
He didn't know why William even took the initiative to go out. The monsters flooding this region showed an obvious decrease in number of course, but in the end, they didn't manage to kill everything.
They only dealt with one troublesome dude here, and Ibra knew more would appear at this area to feast on the gathering up monsters in this region.
A predator was gone, so more were destined to compete on this spot to replace it.
Ibra didn't know that William needed to kill monsters to absorb their cores. Besides, doing this made sure to distract the attention of monsters over this spot, weakening other places around the array.
William told Ibra this before, he wanted to pave their escape route with their actions here. But Ibra missed or didn't fully get what he truly meant.
*Thud!* *Thud!* *Thud!*
Once the two passed through the array again using the opening William created, the latter started to evacuate the content of his rings, emptying the materials, cores, and monster flesh he gathered so far.
"What do you plan to do right now?" Ibra threw his body on the ground and watched what William did.
That gold grade spirit master felt bad after seeing William do this. It felt like William was emptying his rings, preparing for another visit and restocking outside.
"Let's call it a day and sleep," William looked around. The sky was already getting dark, and the sun was nowhere to be seen.
"You regained your senses at last, dark sorcerer!"
"Don't start giving names to me, or else I will do the same, old man!"
"O... Old fart you are!" Ibra's face twitched slightly before he stood up and started walking towards one direction, away from the central place of this region.
"Why are you following me?" And just after walking for a few minutes while using his glaive as a walking stick, he noticed that William was tagging along, "stay away from me! I want to be alone for now."
"Come on! Don't tell me you never attended the academy classes about arrays and learnt the symbolic languages," William rolled his eyes, clearly knowing what drove this strong spirit master over the edge.
"I never attended such sorcery and scary classes," Ibra harrumphed, as if what he did was quite heroic of him, "I once attended one class when I was in grade two at the academy. And believe me, the masters and kids attending these classes are all freaks!"
"You are the freak, not them!"
"I'd rather be a freak and not risk my life getting ruined thanks to these curses you all use," he paused, turning to face William, "why are you following me though? The entire world is vast, find somewhere else and sleep at!"
"I took a liking to that direction," Wiliam shrugged, "and it happens that you are also going towards it."
"Tsk! What an annoying dude you are," Ibra didn't stand in his place for even a second, "here, take this entire region for yourself. I'm going to another place."
"Then we can…"
"I swear if you followed me or if I spotted the shadow of yours, I won't hesitate to put my glaive to work!"
He didn't even control his aura when he said such threatening words. William pulled a fake long face, as if he was depressed to not follow this dude out.
However, this was all fake! And William was just toying with him, to make sure he wouldn't end up getting interrupted or spied on by this dude.
Watching Ibra leave in a determined way made William inwardly sigh. He marched towards the old direction Ibra took, while thinking about the great gains he had.
"I should first work on the silver and bronze cores… I shall start with the bronze ones. When I absorbed the white grade cores of the scarlet monkeys, they first added lots of points then stopped adding until I consumed tons of them…"
