Chapter 2694
Phoenix said, “In the past, we exchanged Spirit Stones for resources with the Legions. Under current circumstances, I doubt they'll be willing to conduct trade with us anymore. So, please come up with a solution quickly.”
Frowning, Zeke asked, “Is that the only way?”
“Of course. If I knew of another way, would I have approached you?”
A brief silence ensued before he requested, “Summon Sole Wolf and Killer Wolf for me.” I'm at a critical moment right now in terms of divine weapon forging., so I can't go and look for food myself. I think Sole Wolf and Killer Wolf can handle it.
“Okay.”
Not long after, Phoenix summoned Sole Wolf, Killer Wolf, and a few others.
Their hygiene situation wasn't any better than Zeke's as their clothes were ragged and they stank.
Refining spiritual iron was a lot more exhausting than collecting Spirit Stones.
Before the group arrived, they had a discussion amongst themselves and decided to complain about their work condition to Zeke. However, when they saw he was having a worse time than them, they kept their mouths shut.
After all, if their boss was suffering too, they surely had no right to complain about their woes.
“What's the matter, Zeke?” Sole Wolf asked. As long as it doesn't involve refining more spiritual iron, I'm willing to do anything.
“We're running out of food. Can you lot search for more?” Zeke answered.
Out of food? Upon hearing that, they experienced a mild headache.
After all, the only thing that was difficult to locate on Theos Island was food.
Just as the group was wondering how to achieve that goal, Killer Wolf abruptly proposed, “I think I have a way to do it, Zeke.”
They promptly shifted their sights toward him. “Where are you going to find food, Killer Wolf?”
“At the primeval forest located in Theos Island's central district. Plenty of beasts roam those woods, so we can just hunt them and turn them into food.”
Alfred nodded in agreement. “That's right. Some time ago, when training in that forest, we had feasts so often that we were sick of it.”
Tyler added, “There are many edible plants in the forest, too. It's not an exaggeration to call it a natural granary.”
Upon hearing that, Sole Wolf, Ares, and Nameless started salivating.
“Meat! D*mn, it's been a very long time since I had meat.”
“That's right! I've lost a few kilograms due to a lack of meat!”
“Come, let's go hunting. Even if we can find food elsewhere, we still need to enter the forest and hunt ourselves some meat.”
“Give us the orders, Zeke. I can't wait to hunt in the primeval forest!”
Thus, Zeke nodded. “Very well. Go and kill a few beasts for us in the woods. Remember, safety first.”
Sole Wolf laughed. “Don't worry, we'll tell that to the beasts living in the woods.”
Phoenix wasn't sure if she should laugh or cry. This group of people is insane! Even though Zeke told them they should take care of their safety, Sole Wolf just said he'll relay that reminder to the beasts. Then again, they are very powerful, so maybe Sole Wolf is right.
Upon receiving their order from Zeke, the group left for the primeval forest without delay.
It was then Phoenix's water reached boiling point.
Moments later, she mixed the hot and cold water together. “Come over here, Zeke. I'll help you wash your head.”
“No need!” Zeke rejected.
He wasn't used to having someone other than Lacey wash his head.
His rejection put a damper on her mood.
Pouting, she explained, “Do you think I like washing your head, Zeke? If you do, you're overthinking it. I'm simply worried about you because your wounds will become inflamed if they come in contact with water, affecting your forging of the divine weapons. If you aren't concerned about slowing down your progress, feel free to wash your head yourself.”
Furrowing his eyebrows, Zeke thought she made a good point.
