Chapter 135 Can I Join Your Team Instead?

After he was done educating the Tigerkins that going against him was a very stupid thing to do, Thirteen went to the west side of the Warehouse alongside Cristopher and Rianna to meet with Harry.

The teenage boy had been waiting patiently for Thirteen's arrival because he wanted to talk to him about something very important.

"We meet again, Harry," Thirteen said. "What happened to you and your team?"

"Yes. It's nice to meet you again, Zion," Harry replied. "If I knew that things would end up the way they did, I would have left with you and Rianna back then. That guy, Colbert, is more troublesome than he looked."

"Tell me everything that happened from start to finish," Thirteen stated before sitting beside Harry. "If possible, don't leave any important information behind."

Harry nodded and told Zion everything that had happened since they parted ways.

According to the scion of the Remington Clan, they were slowly but surely making progress in the Houdini Desert.

However, their overconfidence got the better of them after winning several battles against the monsters that they faced.

Because of this, they decided to aim for an even bigger game.

Harry glanced in Cristopher's direction before continuing his tale.

"Colbert suggested that we should hunt Trolls in order to get Avatars, just like Cristopher," Harry explained. "Everyone was confident since we had just finished a successful hunt, so they all agreed to his proposal.

"Since the majority had made their voices known, I decided to agree as well. But that was where things made an awful turn."

A pained look appeared on Harry's face as he recalled the things that happened to his Hunting Party.

"We succeeded in hunting a few trolls who were hunting alone," Harry stated. "But on our fourth attempt, something unexpected happened. The lone troll we were targeting was carrying some sort of horn. When it realized that it could not beat us, it blew its horn loudly.

"I knew then and there that we were in trouble, so I Immediately ordered all of us to retreat. Unfortunately, we made a wrong turn when we were running away and got ambushed by a Hunting Party.

"There were simply too many of them, and fighting them off was impossible. The only thing we could do was run in different directions, hoping that, by doing so, it would allow others to escape. Those who survived headed back to the cave where we had left our food supplies.

"After resting for a day, I decided to head East because you said that the Barbarian City was in that direction, and here I am."

Thirteen nodded after Harry finished telling his story.

"Then how about this?" Thirteen raised a finger as if telling Harry that he would allow him to join his team on one condition. "Join Rianna's Hunting Party for a week. If you still think that you can't work well with her Hunting Party, then I will consider letting you join my team. How does that sound?"

Harry thought for a bit before nodding his head.

"I accept this condition," Harry replied.

"Good," Thirteen then glanced at Rianna. "Don't give him any special treatment. He will be one of your hunting members for a week, so make sure that he earns his keep. Report his performance to me after a week. If I don't find it satisfactory, I will not accept him on my team."

"Okay," Rianna replied. "You heard him, Harry. I only expect the best from you. If you don't get my approval, forget about joining Zion. I will kick you out of my Hunting Party."

Harry sighed in his heart, but he still nodded his head. "Understood. I will not let you down."

After that small talk was over, Thirteen returned to his side of the warehouse to talk to Vassago for a bit.

Just as he expected, the City Lord had decreed that the entire city would be put on lockdown.

As an expert tracker, Arthas had placed several tracking spells on the treasures in his possession, allowing him to sense their presence.

Since he had detected that they were still in the city, he rallied his Elite Guards and Officials and visited the locations where he believed the treasures were hidden.

They were able to retrieve a few of the items that were stolen, but the most important treasure that the City Lord kept in his treasury wasn't found.

Although Arthas couldn't tell why the thieves didn't take the other items with them when they made their escape, it didn't change the fact that something very important was stolen from him.

'Whoever did this has planned for it for a very long time,' Arthas thought as he returned to his residence with the treasures he had retrieved. 'Fortunately, they will not be able to use that artifact because I have the other half with me.

'Once they discover that they cannot use it, they will definitely confront me in the future. I better make sure to hide the other half in a place they will never find it.'

Arthas gaze became cold as he looked in a certain direction in his city.

A few minutes later, he returned to his room to rest.

He hadn't gotten any sleep since the thieves had barged inside of his home.

Once he was properly rested, he would handle the aftermath of this incident and wait for the return of those who were targeting the treasure that was left behind to him by his father.
