After leaving the team, the adventurer ladies regretted it deeply-Chapter 625 - : 454. Reinvigorate and Face the Cruelties of the World Tree
Chapter 625: 454. Reinvigorate and Face the Cruelties of the World Tree
On the boundless emerald grassland, the breeze was gentle, and the sunlight was warm.
Miss Lulu stared icily at Volgan, her veins bulging on her palm, and her nails popped out like blades.
She could distinctly feel the scrutiny in his gaze, like an alpha wolf assessing a subordinate.
With that,
their hands clasped together.
What seemed like a friendly exchange was in actuality a secret exertion of force. In the palms, the strength was enough to crush tiny stones into powder.
But Volgan’s level was higher than Lulu’s, and he was a power-based warrior.
After a few seconds, Lulu’s face began to look unpleasant.
Volgan released her hand, shook his head, and said, “You need more practice. How can such thin arms defeat Magical Creatures? As a member of the Frost Wolf Clan, your performance shames me.”
“What others do, what does it have to do with you?” Lulu frowned.
She was, after all, an agility-based warrior, her innate skill required her Life Barrier to be weak to a certain extent to activate; head-on combat was not her forte.
“Young master, you still need to meet with Duke Cold Moon. Please don’t delay your journey!”
Seeing Lin Da’s changing expression, about to erupt in conflict with Volgan, Knut solemnly interrupted.
If Volgan and the Phoenix Tail Flower Team came into conflict, both sides would suffer losses.
The task given to Volgan by the clan was “depending on the situation, befriend the Phoenix Tail Flower Adventure Team.”
With the potential displayed by Lin Da, it was worth extending an olive branch from the Frostwolf Tribe.
But Volgan’s mind was filled only with battling.
The tribe, unsure of what to do, thus had sent Knut to follow him.
Indeed, we can’t let Duke Cold Moon wait anxiously.”
Thinking of that legend in the Royal Capital, Volgan’s expression became serious.
He glanced at Lulu and said, “Strive hard in your training, at least live up to your identity.”
“Identity? What identity can a wild wolf captured by slavers have?” Lulu said self-mockingly.
“Slaves?” Volgan was taken aback.
“Miss Lulu, may I ask which slave traders captured you?”
Knut’s expression was benevolent, like a kindly old grandfather.
But Lin Da noticed a chilling glint flash through the depths of Knut’s eyes.
Was it because he felt indignant about Lulu’s ordeal?
Lin Da felt privately shocked.
There couldn’t be some connection between Lulu and the Frost Wolf Clan…
Since this frost-haired Frost Wolf girl was only a four-star character in the game, her storyline was much thinner compared to five-star characters.
It was probably “Once upon a time, there was a Frost Wolf girl captured by slave traders”… How long ago was “once,” who was this Frost Wolf girl, from where were the slavers, and how was she captured—none was mentioned in the limited story text volume.
Not to mention Lin Da, even Lulu herself didn’t know where her hometown was or who her parents were.
“Why should I tell you?” Lulu glared sidelong at Knut, “I do not wish to have any relationship with any of you.”
“It seems you’ve suffered quite a bit in Cangqing Province,” Knut sighed, looking at Lulu with pity, “After I and Young Master Volgan have met with Duke Cold Moon, I will tell you the details of what happened back then.”
Then, Knut cast a meaningful glance at Lin Da.
“Hmph, lucky kid…”
Knut could certainly tell that Lulu was no longer the innocent wolf.
While the Frost Wolf Clan was warlike, it was also extremely monogamous, possessing the resolve to live and die with an accepted mate.
That’s why neither Knut nor the elders of the Frostwolf Clan had discouraged Lulu’s thoughts.
Thus, there was the fallback strategy of befriending the Phoenix Tail Flower Adventure Team.
The problem lay with Volgan, the young hothead.
Knut felt countless frustrations; if only he could take a portion of Volgan’s strength and put it into his head, that would be better.
The two of them took out a teleportation stone and disappeared in a burst of blue light.
Not until they had left did the oppressive air completely dissipate.
Lin Da stroked his chin, deep in thought.
He always felt that the old wolf harbored malice toward him.
Lia and the others gathered around, chattering:
“It feels like Lulu is a big shot, even Light Rank respects her so much!”
“Could Lin Da possibly secure the support of the Frostwolf Clan?”
“Am I the only one who noticed how terrifyingly strong Volgan was?”
“A Ten Star Adventurer, much stronger than a Nine Star!”
Some were concerned about Lulu’s identity, while others felt the gap between themselves and top adventurers.
Lia, Abner belonged to the latter.

With only forty percent of his strength, Volgan could match Lin Da.
If they were to face him, couldn’t they even withstand ten percent of Volgan’s strength?
They hadn’t yet gone to Cyan City, yet strong adversaries were cropping up one after another, overwhelming them and giving rise to a sense of powerlessness.
Once upon a time, Lia and their goal was simply to reach Moon Rank. Future matters were just talk; they hadn’t seriously considered them.
“White Southern Red’s” three cities put together, Sunrise Level doesn’t exceed five teams; they didn’t dare to harbor too many dreams.
But placed in Cyan City, the geniuses of yesteryear might also gradually become mediocre.
