Carmen was startled by the sudden stern and cold tone made by Xu Feng. It was as if he had turned into another person.
But what baffled her more was that his words seemed to make perfect sense.
After all, she had recalled the incident on a team that she was kicked out of.
'Back then, we struggled to kill a level 5 monster, and it dropped a Superior Common, but they still fought fiercely among each other.' Carmen smiled bitterly.
She didn't have much of an interest in the drop because she felt that it was reasonable to not get any. Her contribution to the battle was very mild.
Thus, she was momentarily blurred, considering how harmonious they looked on the surface as a team. Since she had done her part correctly, albeit not massive, she felt like equally distributing was the correct option.
However, Xu Feng's words and warnings caused her to reconsider her mindset.
"So are you saying we should not distribute any to Jeff?" Carmen asked, a tinge of bitterness underlay in her tone.
"No, we will distribute it to him because you already said so." Xu Feng answered calmly.
Biting her lips softly, with her head lowered, she subsequently inquired, "A-Are you mad at me for making the decision without consulting you first?"
Without bothering to answer her, Xu Feng merely patted her head softly.
Feeling the warmth of his hand, Carmen equally stayed silent afterward.
Based on such action, it was evident that Xu Feng wasn't mad. In fact, when she pondered further, she realized that he was merely trying to advise her properly on what to do next time if she were to ever team up with others.
Simultaneously, she was starting to notice that Xu Feng had remained indifferent to the loot the entire time.
Just take a look at Jeff.
"Jeff is a Berserker and our main DPS." She commented, feeling that these talons would fit just perfectly for Jeff.
Shortly after equipping the cloak, Xu Feng continued on with the Uncommon equipment. Instead of pondering over which one to use for him, he first inspected which one would help Jeff.
A few seconds later, Xu Feng picked up two pieces, Windbreaker Armor and Feathered Mantle. The armor offered some good protection while allowing for increased agility and the mantle provided a minor increase in spell resistance.
"These two shall be for Jeff as well." He then handed them over to Carmen.
"Okay."
"This Harbinger's Helm, Leather Boots, and Talons of the Harbinger will be for Jeff as well." He added, finalizing every piece of equipment allocated to Jeff.
The Helm was Superior Common whereas the Boots and Talons were Common. Other than the helm, the last two pieces were inferior and somewhat useless in Xu Feng's mind.
As Carmen accepted them, she said, "I'll bring this equipment to Jeff first then."
Nodding, Xu Feng simply waved his hand, his attention focused on the equipment.
Sometime later, Carmen happily hopped her legs, dashing toward Jeff, who similarly started cheering in laughter and thanking Carmen after receiving the equipment.
"Are these really allocated to me?" Jeff asked in a disbelieving tone, his hands trembling visibly.
"Of course, Feng personally chose it," Carmen reassured him.
"Haha, these pieces of equipment are indeed perfect for me."
As they chatted happily, they made quite the commotion, distracting Xu Feng.
Turning around, Xu Feng saw the two of them were close to prancing around.
'Is it really worth being happy over it?' He questioned inwardly, finding their actions illogical. 'Sigh, I'll just let them be.'
