"Alex, do you think they will show up?" The other girl asked. The three were around the fire waiting to bake their food.
"They will come. A treasure like that in front of everyone is hard to resist. Nobody will want to miss such an opportunity "
"That's true. Alex, do you have any idea how to divide the treasures? The three of us don't have the strength to deal with everyone at the same time "The effeminate young man commented. They were just three while the other side had twelve participants from various federations.
"Grace, Rhys, I have a plan for this. But we need to endure and put aside the poor quality parts of the ice wolf. We will try to get the most important item from the ice wolf "Alex Gordon spoke in a mysterious way. She used her power to analyze inside the bubble and she discovered something incredible that made her greedy. She wouldn't say what it was, because she wanted the treasure for herself.
The name of Alexa Gordon's two teammates was Grace Bailey and Rhys Kaur.
"Alex, did you use your power to analyze the bubble?"
"Yes. The flower is still inside the ice wolf's stomach. The wolf must be using the flower to complete the transformation from the inside out. We need to attack before it can fully absorb the power of the lotus. " Alex replied solemnly. She made it look like the wolf was using the power of the lotus to transform itself, but that was not the case.
Alex lied about it. She didn't want to tell about the real treasure inside the ice wolf's body.
"It looks like they really showed up" Rhys looked at the monitor on his arm and commented. He saw several images of participants walking to the place where they were camping.
Within minutes, the other twelve participants appeared. Each of them was using their own way of withstanding the cold.
One or the other was wearing only trousers to cover their legs while others had heavy fur jacket.
"It looks like you accepted my proposal" Alex looked at the young people who appeared with a casual look. She had already imagined this scene.
The thought of having a rare and precious treasure in front of them was something very difficult to resist.
"For calling us here, you must have a plan, right?" An arrogant voice was heard.
The person who spoke was a young man of average appearance, but his body was muscular and strong, his skin was dark and he was bald. Unlike many others, he wore only trousers. It seems that the cold was not bothering him.
This question aroused everyone's interest in the place. Everyone looked at Alex and ignored the other two members of her group.
"Yes. I have a plan, but before that, I would like to know will participate in the plan. Those who do not want to participate, it is better to leave here, because I will not hold back if someone disturbs me "Alex spoke in a solemn and threatening way. She didn't want someone spoiling her plans to get the greatest treasure hidden within the wolf.
The other participants felt the pressure contained in Alex's words, the power of a Warrior Mage was not an easy thing to deal with. Especially when everyone in the place was just Advanced Mage and some Great Mage.
"Before showing interest, I would like to know about the plan to see the possibilities of victory" Another young man commented. He looked like a fair-skinned young Oriental.
That was another question that interested everyone. If the plan is flawed, it was best not to try to avoid wasting time.
"The plan is very simple. First, we have to deal with the surrounding ice creatures, this task is very simple for us. After we finish doing this, we need to prevent the ice wolf from completing its transformation. The only way to do that is to hinder its from doing that. We just need to break the bubble and seriously injure the ice wolf. The plan is simple and practical, "Alex commented casually.
The situation did not require a well elaborated and simple plan, none of them are fighting against a person, but rather, a creature without intelligence that lives with instincts.
The group had a total of fifteen participants and the other side had only one creature of rank 5. This fight was not that difficult, as long as the participants cooperate with everyone.
"I see ... A simple and practical plan. This is the best way to deal with creatures, but the wolf is a different case, none of us know what kind of abilities it may have. Even though it is in a transformation phase and weakened, it is still a creature of rank 5. A creature of this level is something very difficult to deal with."
"This is true, but you need to remember that we are fifteen here. Each of us has powerful magic equipment, moreover, we are the elites chosen by the federations. If you didn't have the skill to match that title, you're wasting another magician's place "
No one commented on Alex's words, what she said was true. As members chosen to be part of the Olympic Games team, each of them was the best among the best young people in their respective federations. That was undeniable.
Alexa's words made them realize that if they fail to face this type of challenge, they should not be considered the elite.
It is worth mentioning that they will fight a weakened rank 5 creature, and that needs to focus on evolving. The giant ice wolf didn't have time to think about fighting at the moment.
The phrase that most fits that moment is: No danger, no gain.
"Before accepting to be part of the group. I would like to know how the spoils will be divided?" That was another important question.
"The division will be according to the needs of each one. I think everyone is wanting parts of the ice wolf's body, right? Those who want the same part can negotiate with each other. For example, I want the wolf's heart of ice and some ice scales. If anyone wants the same as me, we can negotiate. That simple." Alex commented casually, but the meaning behind her words was obvious to everyone.
Alex was imposing her desire to have the wolf's heart and some ice scales. As a Warrior Mage, no one in the room had more power than she did. The parts she wanted will already be her at the end.
(Why doesn't she want the Fire and Ice Lotus that is inside the ice wolf's stomach ??) That was the question that others ask mentally. Even Alex's companions wondered about this.
(Is it possible that she saw something more valuable than the lotus ??) Alex's two companions know that she had the power to check the interior of the giant ice wolf's body. They had this thought after hearing that she was not interested in the lotus.
"We will be part of the group. Our goal is the ice scales. Each of us wants a hundred "The group of the young man with dark skin and bald and manifested. They had no chance against the others to be able to have more deterrence against the other teams that had Great Mages. His group had only two members, two Advanced Mages. Their team's Great Mages were elsewhere.
"I am also interested in the scales, but I need thirty of it"
"I want some sharp fang, preferably the front canines"
…
Participants began to make their demands for the ice wolf's body parts. The vast majority wanted the scales, as it was a large part of the ice wolf's body. Its body had several thousand scales.
Like a creature made entirely of ice, the giant wolf had no internal organs like a normal creature. It had only the heart and the stomach.
Alex Gordon took heart when a New United Kingdom's Great Magician named Tristan Webb chose his stomach. Xie Xinyue chose two legs and some scales.
In the end, each part of the giant ice wolf was divided among the fifteen members of the group. After finishing the conversation, they prepared to attack the creatures around the bubble.
Nobody needed to talk about their strengths and weaknesses, they just needed to do their job and defeat the creatures.
…
"Are you ready?" Alex Gordon was ahead. As the strongest mage of all on the scene, she had to start the attack.
"Yes" Although they accepted a truce at the time, no one trusted anyone. Because someone from another team can betray the other in an important situation.
Each federation was divided as before, its members were together and separate from the other federations.
"Let's start!!! Piercing Chains !!! " Alex shouted as she charge to an creatures. A strong light blue glow covered her body.
The other participants also did the same with her.
