Chapter 1086: General Christopher Murray’s Request

Under General Christopher Murray’s cordial invitation, Dustin eventually entered an antique study room. As fragrant tea was served, the two men began their conversation.

“Young man, more than ten years have passed in the blink of an eye, haven’t they? Compared to the past, you’ve truly undergone a remarkable transformation!”Christopher marveled as he examined Dustin from top to bottom.

Ten years ago, Dustin had been known as the Dragonmarsh’s number one young genius, arrogant and unruly.

Now, he was reserved and low-key, a complete transformation.

“It’s been ten years since we last met. General Murray, you still exude the same grandeur, and your charisma remains as captivating as ever,” Dustin complimented.

“Hahaha… I’m already an old man with one foot in the grave. Where’s the grandeur in that?” Christopher laughed and shook his head. “Young man, they say trouble never comes alone. Did you suddenly visit because you have something on your mind?”

“Let me be honest. The reason I came this time is to pay my respects to you, General, and also to request your assistance,” Dustin got straight to the point and placed a prepared gift on the table.

“Oh? Tell me more,” Christopher said with a smile as he took a sip of tea.

“I’ve heard that someone has given you a Cherusia (Seven-Colored Spirit Mushroom). This item is of great importance to me, and I’m willing to pay a high price to purchase it. I hope you can bear the pain of parting with it,” Dustin respectfully requested.

“A Cherusia (Seven-Colored Spirit Mushroom)?” Christopher raised an eyebrow slightly. “I didn’t expect you to be so well-informed. However, such treasures are extremely rare. What do you plan to offer in exchange?”

“General Murray, please name your price, and I will do my best to fulfill your request,” Dustin inquired.

“Young man, have you gotten married?” General Christopher Murray asked with a smile.
