"Thanks a lot, Elder Barret!" Kristen said excitedly as she felt the changed in her body.
"No need to thank me, Kristen, I can only slow down the progression of your blindness. As for your life, even the Chief can do nothing to help!" Elder Barret sighed as he heard the gratitude in Kristen's voice.
Then he asked, "Is this the last Royal Sky Guard member you were looking for?"
"Yes, Elder Barret!" Tyson nodded.
"Since I left the choice up to you, I will not ask more about him." Elder Barret nodded, looking at Ricky. His old yet bright eyes were full of doubts despite his words.
Did he doubt Ricky's loyalty and power, or could he somehow be aware of the human skin mask on Ricky's face?
At that point, Ricky was naturally feeling awkward, but he still acted very calm. He respectfully said, "Thank you, Elder Barret."
Elder Barret was an innate spiritual king, but he did not put on airs when he heard Ricky's simple response. He nodded slightly and replied, "Since you have joined the Royal Sky Guard, please do your best for us. We all depend on each other."
"Elder Barret, why did you come here?" Kristen suddenly asked.
"After you left for a few days, our informants received intelligence that the forces in the Black Marsh area were concealing an important message. The leader of the Rats is a beast tamer. But I'm sure you've already known it by now," said Elder Barret.
"Chief sent me to chase you and tell you to be discreet. Unfortunately, you have already arrived here. I am afraid it's because of the beast tamer of the Rats that Kristen used the Devil Flame!"
"It is exactly as you say, Elder Barret. The forces in the Black Marsh area deceived us; because of their tricks, Kristen was injured," Tyson said angrily.
"Do not worry, the Chief has severely punished them," Elder Barret said.
Seeing that Elder Barret was no longer paying attention to him, Ricky breathed a sigh of relief. It proved that even a lower spiritual king still couldn't see through the human skin mask on his face.
'It seems that this human skin mask given to me by the sect chief is not so simple, ' Ricky thought to himself.
"I came to the Chaotic Region mainly to bring you something to help you gain a foothold and make some new progress," Elder Barret added.
"First of all, there are 10, 000 gold coins. It includes 6, 000 gold coins as your main quest rewards. The remaining four thousand gold coins are development costs!"
As he spoke, Elder Barret took out a storage bag from the storage ring on his hand. He then gave it to Tyson.
"Also, I want to give you something that could save your life--the innate spiritual ball!"
Elder Barret flipped his hand over so the palm faced up. Three small white balls appeared in the palm of his hand. After he revealed them he handed them to Kristen, Tyson, and Ricky, one by one.
"Elder Barret, why did the Chief even send such good things to us?" Picking up the innate spiritual ball, Tyson was delighted but also confused.
Ricky carefully felt the ball and discovered that the so-called innate spiritual ball contained amazing innate power.
"Is this ball a means of attack?" Ricky doubted that it was because it wasn't something he had ever heard of before.
Seeing Ricky's doubts, Tyson explained, "Russell, the innate spiritual ball is formed by the spiritual energy of an innate spiritual king after death. It has both a strong offensive and defensive power.
Each innate spiritual ball can attack or defend three times. Once the innate spiritual ball is motivated, even a demi-immortal can be seriously injured or even die from its use!"
