Chapter 1072 - Fang Qiu Standing High!

Chapter 1072 Fang Qiu Standing High!

The people from all the forces present frowned upon hearing John Doe’s words. They found those words quite unpleasing.

After all, they had come all the way here to fight for the treasure, and some of them had even placed the treasure before their own lives.

Although they pitied these ordinary people in the town, they wouldn’t care about their lives since they had risked their own lives to come here.

Nevertheless, they didn’t dare to utter their objections before the fight for the holy fruit ended because John Doe was too strong.

They all knew that it was not a good thing for them to confront John Doe at that time.

“Let’s go up the mountain!”

The fat middle-aged man from the Truth Division immediately waved his hand and led his men up the mountain quickly.

On the other side, the members of the Gospel Division quickly rushed up from another direction.

The mercenaries and those other forces did not want to lag behind, so they all rushed up quickly as well.

Isabel, Lester, and Yakov went up the mountain as fast as they could.

However, Fang Qiu was not in a hurry to go there.

He followed behind the crowd and slowly went up the mountain.

He knew very well that many people from all forces around the world had come solely for the Bodhi Fruit.

Their arrival would displease the Gospel Division and Truth Division, the two powerful, local forces. After all, the Bodhi Fruit grew in the Gospel Division’s territory and was first found by the Truth Division. Besides, the two divisions had declared that they would get the holy fruit at all costs.

Therefore, when they went up the mountain, they would definitely make some trouble to stop other forces from going up the mountain.

That would easily lead to a riot.

Therefore, it might not be a good thing to walk at the front of the crowd.

Because he was walking at the end of the crowd, Fang Qiu could clearly see that the top of the second mountain was very wide.

The temple ruins on the mountain top looked like those in the desert. Most of them had been weathered, and some green plants and vines grew in the corners and cracks of the stones.

The ruins were surrounded by lush trees. Although they were full of vitality, they were not thick.

Everything could be seen clearly at a glance.

After walking down the first mountain and reaching the mountainside of the second mountain, Fang Qiu saw high stairs about five hundred steps. The stairs looked magnificent with a slope angle of 70 degrees, which would give ordinary people a great sense of oppression.

However, those people were all from big forces, and even the weaker ones among them were stronger and braver than ordinary people. Thus, no one stopped their pace when seeing these stairs.

Leading the way, the members of the Truth Division and Gospel Division quickly rushed up the stairs.

After they walked up the stairs, they saw a piece of flat and wide ground. It seemed to be a place where the incense altars of the temples were placed, but the altars were no longer there, so the place was empty.

There was another floor above the ground, about thirty stairs higher, and the real ruins and the Bodhi Fruit were there.

Feeling the energy fluctuations of the holy fruit, everyone couldn’t wait any longer and all rushed up.

“Pitter-patter...”

However, just when they reached the first step of the thirty stairs and were about to go up, they heard sudden footsteps.

The members of the Truth Division and the Gospel Division came forward at the same time and blocked the entrance of the stairs.

“What are you doing?” someone asked.

“I’m sorry,” a man from the Truth Division said, “but the holy fruit was found by us and has nothing to do with you guys. The holy fruit belongs to us. I understand that you’re curious about it. You can stay here and watch if you want to have a look at it, but don’t cross the line, or you will have to leave.”

Hearing that, everyone immediately understood that the Truth Division wanted to stop others from grabbing the holy fruit.

They became furious.

They had prepared quite a lot in order to get the holy fruit.

Never had they imagined that they would be stopped at the mountainside.

Since they had come all the way here and prepared so much, they would not back down and watch someone else get the holy fruit.

The people from those forces got furious.

The atmosphere instantly became tense, as if a war was about to break out at any time.

“Haha.”

But right at this moment, a burst of laughter was heard.

Everyone turned around and saw a middle-aged man with a thick beard come near. He was wearing a uniform of the Murican special forces and armed with rifles, pistols, military daggers, grenades, and so on.

“Is he Iron Wolf?”

“He is the head of the Iron Wolf Mercenaries. The organization is ranked seventh among all the mercenary organizations in the world.”

“This organization is quite powerful. I heard that it could be considered one of the top forces in the world. It’s stronger than the Truth Division and Gospel Division.”

The crowd whispered among themselves.

However, the members of the Truth Division and the Gospel Division remained indifferent, showing no respect to Iron Wolf at all.

Under everyone’s gaze, Iron Wolf stepped forward, looked at the members of the Truth Division, and then at the members of the Gospel Division. “Hey, this is the Gospel Division’s territory, right? Whatever grows here belongs to the Gospel Division and has nothing to do with you guys from the Truth Division.

“Since you guys tried to stop me, I want to ask you, will you let the Gospel Division get the holy fruit if we leave?” he said.

As soon as he said that, the faces of the members of the Truth Division instantly changed.

Although they knew that Iron Wolf was trying to sow dissension between the two divisions, they couldn’t refute him at all, because what he said was true.

The members of the Gospel Division also turned to look at the people from the Truth Division with hostility in their eyes.

It seemed that the newly formed alliance would break soon.

The atmosphere suddenly changed.

The people from those other forces were no longer aggressive. Instead, they were all ready to watch a good show and see how the Truth Division and the Gospel Division would deal with this matter.

“Howl...”

But right at this moment, a thunderous roar reverberated in the air.

The roar startled everyone.

Many experts among the crowd quickly looked at the ruins at the top of the mountain.

“It’s coming!”

Fang Qiu also looked at the top of the mountain immediately.

Under the setting sun, Fang Qiu saw a huge shadow walking out from the ruins at the top of the mountain. At this time, the shadow was howling to the sky!

“Pitter-patter...”

As soon as the shout died away, the sound of something leaping was heard.

A giant wolf jumped out of the ruins at the top of the mountain, guarding the entrance of the stairs. With its deep blue eyes wide open, it opened its huge mouth and roared at the people at the mountainside.

“Howl!!!”

The howl caused a gust of wind in the air.

A disgusting smell of blood wafted out from the giant wolf’s mouth.

Some ordinary people couldn’t help vomiting when they caught the smell.

However, most of the people were shocked!

They had never seen such a big wolf before.

They looked up and found that the wolf’s legs were as thick as those of the human beings. The wolf was about three meters high, almost as tall as a one-storey house!

It was even bigger than an elephant.

What shocked those people even more was that the wolf’s teeth were extremely sharp, which caused their hair to stand on end.

Someone shouted, “It wants to snatch the holy fruit!”

The fat middle-aged man from the Truth Division and the old man from the Gospel Division moved at the same time and rushed to the ruins above. Obviously, they were going to fight against the guardian beast for the Bodhi Fruit!

The remaining people of the two divisions were still blocking the entrance of the stairs to stop others from going up.

With the appearance of the guardian beast, all the people present who knew about the Heaven Treasure realized that the Bodhi Fruit was about to mature.

They immediately tried to break through the defense line of the Truth Division and Gospel Division despite the two divisions blocking the entrance.

At the back of the crowd, Fang Qiu stood quietly and stared at the ruins at the top of the mountain for a while. Then he moved, quietly disappeared into the forest behind him, and climbed to the top of the mountain from another path.

If his guess was right, the people from the Nirvana Organization would definitely try to add fuel to the fire and trigger a great battle among those forces.

As a result, Fang Qiu would not join the fight for the holy fruit before he could catch the person sent by the Nirvana Organization.

After he arrived at the top of the mountain, Fang Qiu flew straight to the highest wall of the ruins, which had been severely weathered. The buildings built in ancient times were very thick, and because he was hiding behind the highest wall, no one could see him at all.

Standing high, he could see far.

He carefully observed the situation for a while and found that some people from the Truth Division in the crowd were attacking the people from the Gospel Division, while some people from the Gospel Division were also attacking the people from the Truth Division.

The alliance formed by the two divisions was quickly broken. While trying to stop other forces from going up, the two divisions were also fighting against each other.

During the fight, some people from the Truth Division killed a few mercenaries ruthlessly, and so did the people from the Gospel Division.

As a result, those mercenaries and people from medium-sized and small-sized forces immediately joined the fight and started killing.

A crazy battle quietly broke out.

During the fierce battle, some experts from the big forces left the battlefield and flew to the top of the mountain to besiege the giant wolf with the people from the Truth Division and Gospel Division.

Certainly, there were also some people who wanted to take the opportunity to seize the Heaven Treasure that had just matured, but they were all stopped.

Fang Qiu standing at the highest place just watched the fight without any intention of intervening.

It was because he knew it would be useless for him to intervene.

He still had to wait, just like how he did for the Ambergris Grass the last time.

Fang Qiu knew very well that the people of the Nirvana Organization were not so generous as to watch others get the Heaven Treasure that ranked the ninth among all.

In any case, the Nirvana Organization would never let anyone else take the Heaven Treasure away so easily!
