270 Godfather?
'Who are they?' Ajax carefully observed them and thought about the cultivators who looked young and powerful.
Among the group of cultivators, almost all were having peak commander realm strength and the lowest cultivation was level 1?commander realm.
"Hey Ajax," As he was wondering about the young cultivators, Ajax heard Edmond's voice.
Ajax looked at Edmond, who was waving his hand with a happy expression and felt good that he was able to come back from a dangerous situation.
"Hello, Captain," Ajax waved his hand and walked towards Edmond before asking Slait to take care of his senor brother Levi.
'Ding,
Mission name:- Escape the current predicament is successfully completed.
Accomplishment Rating:- A+
Reason:- The host was able to escape the most dangerous situation using his wits and used the limited resources at his hand. So, the accomplishment rating was given 'A+'.
Reward:- The Inner World upgrade is available now.
'Ding,
Since the accomplishment rating is 'A+', an energy orb which can upgrade two minor realms in the host's cultivation.
'Ding,
Do you want to upgrade the inner world?
Yes or No?
As he was walking towards Edmond, the pleasant mission accomplishment notification chinked in his head, making him excited and without any hesitation, he chose 'Yes'.
'Ding,
The inner world is upgrading. However, the host need not worry about the elemental spirits and the spirit beasts in it.
Remaining time for the upgrade:- 23 hours 59 minutes
He quickly left the place with Darbaudr.
Before leaving, Darbaudr looked at Ajax and felt something different than before he entered the dimensional crevice, but he was unable to figure it out and decided to ask Ajax later about complete events that happened in the dimensional crevice.
When Ajax explained about the events in the dimensional crevice to Edmond, Darbaudr easily guessed that Ajax left many important details that changed him.
Nevertheless, he didn't ask about it in front of others and decided to ask later when they were alone.
After they left, all the nine cultivators surrounded Ajax and observed him like some kind of creature.
"What are you doing seniors," Ajax felt weird when all of them observed him.
"Nothing," one of the cultivators that looked like a bodybuilder shook his head and continued, "If you remember all our names, we will give you a reward; otherwise..."
He stopped after saying otherwise making Ajax something amiss.
"Otherwise, you have to carry me out of the cursed wilderness," that cultivator said with a cunning smile.
"Huh?" Ajax looked at his body which was the size of a small boulder and accepted it without hesitation.
"I can easily carry a large boulder with my current strength much less you who looks like a small boulder," Ajax said jokingly.
"Let's see," the huge man said nodding his head.
"Hahaha,"
When they heard Ajax's words, all started laughing, but no one knows whom they were laughing at.
"Everyone, say your code names now," the huge man said to his fellow cultivator.
"Moon Shadow, Bright Shadow, Snow Storm, Fearless Gorilla, Dark Flame, Heavenly Raven, Silver Goliath, Kind Mantis, King Killer"
As soon as the huge finished his words, all of them said their code names at once puzzling Ajax.
'Damn, they are playing with me,' Ajax thought in his head but soon shook as his as he smilingly said, "If I said all your codes names correctly, what is the reward?"
What these nine young cultivators don't know was that Ajax had a technique to remember any complex names or codes.
So, he shook his head and asked about the reward.
"If you say it correctly we will give you 1 million spirit stones," a beautiful girl from the group announced the reward making Ajax very happy.
