Chapter 113 - Gregor And Filip

Even Henrick didn't have a clue on what happened to the baby fire monkey all of a sudden; however, he trusted its words and remained calm before walking towards the bridge.

Since it came from the beast mountain, Henrick assumed it knows other ways to enter the mountain.

'I hope it will come back soon,'

Nevertheless, he hoped that the baby fire monkey would come back soon.

"Is everything, okay?"

Nick felt something was wrong with Henrick and the baby fire monkey which ran off somewhere. So, he asked whether everything was alright.

"Everything is fine. Let's enter the beast mountain first," Henrick nodded his head as he increased his speed towards the bridge.

…

At the bridge,

"Senior brother, do you have any idea why our masters are very anxious lately?" One of the green-robed young men asked the other green-robed young man.

"It's about the baby fire monkey which we used to feed before we took up the guarding job,"

The other young man replied with an expressionless face.

These two young men were the beast mountain's disciples. Gregor and Filip.

With Gregor being the eldest and was called as a senior brother by Filip.

They were the disciples of the middle-aged cultivators under the owner of the beast mountain old man, Fionk.

"So, why did it run away? It is very obedient before we came here to stand guard,"

Filip didn't understand why the baby fire monkey ran away from the beast mountain.

"Who knows? However, beasts don't like being confined in that dark cave all the time," Gregor gave his own thoughts of why the obedient baby fire monkey ran away from the beast mountain all of a sudden.

"Anyway, stop bothering about it. Look, some disciples are coming towards us. They might be entering our beast mountain," Gregor noticed two outer sect disciples were coming towards them. So, he asked Filip to stop thinking about the baby fire monkey.

"Take out your disciple token and place there,"

Those outer sect disciples were none other than Henrick and Nick. Before they could say anything, Filip pointed his finger at the gate where there was an empty pattern that exactly fits the disciple token.

"Why?"

Henrick politely asked for the reason because his master said not to hand out the disciple token to others.

"You"

Filip looked at Henrick for a moment before shaking his head and explained, "To enter the beast mountain, you have to pay some contribution points. Looks like this is your first time coming here. Sigh...such an ignorant disciple,"

After explaining his words, Filip sighed and he didn't bother about Henrick anymore because without paying he could not enter the beast mountain.

"Henrick, let me do it, first,"

Nick also didn't know about such a rule; however, he wanted to give it a try.

"Don't think much, newbie. The rule is set by the owner of the beast mountain because you are taking all the resources in the beast mountain whenever you enter it. So, this was the rule; Moreover, if you don't like it, there is another option for you, newbies,"

Before Nick could even move, Gregor stopped Nick as he explained the reason for such a rule and he also said there was another option for them.

"What is it?"

Henrick and Nick asked Gregor at the same time before, at their current stage, contribution points were very valuable. So, they didn't want to waste it if there were other options for them.

"You don't need to pay any contribution points but when you return, you have to give half of the value of your items to us. Do you agree with it?"

Gregor was calm like an experienced businessman as he proposed another option to them.

"What? We will go with the first option,"

When they heard the second option, both Henrick and Nick were shocked and hurriedly went to put their disciple tokens into the pattern on the gate.

'Lucky fellows,'

Seeing their actions, Gregor silently thought to himself.

As soon as Henrick put the disciple token into the gate, a '50' materialized above the token and it was slashed by some invisible slash before turning into 40.

'Phew...it's only 10 contribution points better than the second options,' When he saw only 10 contribution points were debited from his disciple token, Henrick heaved a sigh of relief.

Next, Nick also followed Henrick's actions and his total contribution points were reduced to 90 from the initial 100 contribution points.

"For the first entry, the beast mountain will only charge you 10 contribution points; however, from the next time be prepared with 100 contribution points; otherwise, you will not get entry into the beast mountain,"

Looking at the satisfied expression on Henrick and Nick's faces, Gregor explained the reason for low contribution points.

"We will get more contribution points the next time we come here. So, you no need to worry about us," Henrick could sense that Gregor was looking down on him. So, he replied with a scoff.

However, what he didn't know was Gregor was thinking who were these disciples to have so many contribution points even before they could complete their first newbie missions.

'Looks like I need to do some enquiry about these two outer sect disciples,' He silently thought to himself and moved away from the entrance for Henrick and Nick to enter the beast mountain.

"By the way, don't climb too high; otherwise, you will die before you even know it," Just as they were about to enter through the open-gate, Filip warned them not to climb higher.

'Hmm'

Henrick and Nick nodded their heads and finally entered the beast mountain.

"Woah...the surroundings are completely changed from what we have seen outside," As soon as they entered the bottom of the beast mountain, they were surprised to see the different surroundings which were completely packed with huge trees and bushes.

'Where is Spark?' After looking around for a while, Henrick thought about the baby fire monkey.
