An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 2220

"Elder Mason, what do you think?" Hank turned to Garrett as the tension eased.

"If the Hall of Gods is extending such sincerity, it would be impolite of us to refuse," Garrett replied with a smile.

With all these rare treasures being presented, they couldn't possibly refuse such an offer. They knew completing the mission would set them up for a comfortable retirement.

Though risky, the potential rewards made it a gamble worth taking. Besides, they would be an unstoppable force with the Cosmos Demons on their side.

After all, they never backed down from danger, even when faced with the toughest challenges.

"Elder Mason, your decisiveness is admirable." Hank smiled and turned to Willard. "Mr. Lent, what about you?"

"As long as there's good booze, then we've got a deal," Willard slurred with drunken cheer.

"Perfect! Then, it's settled." Hank perked up with a bright smile.

"Wait! I've got a question." Dustin, who had been observing quietly, spoke up.

"Oh? What's on your mind?" Hank raised a curious eyebrow.

He brought Dustin on board due to his clean record and remarkable skills.

After seeing Dustin defeat Marco previously, Hank suspected him to be a grandmaster martial artist. Someone so young and skilled was definitely worth recruiting.

"Mr. Styles, you've tasked us with finding treasure. But we're in the dark about what exactly we're after. Can you give us some insight? It would ease our minds," Dustin said calmly.

The others nodded in agreement. Their initial excitement had blinded them to this crucial detail.

The meticulous planning of the Hall of Gods raised questions about the purpose behind venturing into the forbidden grounds of the Sacred Wrym Summit.

"I must admit that even I'm unsure of what treasure we're seeking," Hank confessed and shook his head.

"What? You're clueless, too?" Garrett was shocked by the revelation.

Tasking them to search for treasure without knowing what they were looking for seemed like a fool's errand.

"I must confess that the God King organized this treasure hunt. I'm simply following orders, and the details are unclear to me." Hank shrugged helplessly.

"What? The God King is involved?"

"Goodness! Do we really need all this grandeur?"

"It seems the Hall of Gods is dead set on this mission!"

The martial artists exchanged murmurs and were astonished by the revelation.
