If they were to ambush Alp, however, they would have a bigger chance of winning the fight.
With that knowledge in mind, Scar Face and the others came up with a plan.
Upon getting the instruction from Scar Face, the brothers pounced at Alp viciously.
Alp was just about to get his hands on the Heavenly Spirit Stones when he suddenly felt a powerful gust of wind behind him.
Shocked, Alp instantly turned around and saw three members of Centuria rushing toward him. I know these three! They used to be my subordinates.
“B*stards! What are you guys doing?” Alp roared.
He charged toward Dooragan and his brothers.
Soon, the four of them engaged in a fight.
Dooragan and his brothers weren't Alp's match, so it didn't take long for Alp to have the brothers beaten up heavily. In fact, the brothers were on the verge of getting killed.
Right when Alp was immersed in the thrill of killing, Scar Face finally showed up.
Scar Face had sneaked up behind Alp earlier, and with a leap, he took a swing at Alp's head with a hammer.
This is an ambush! Alp sensed Scar Face's presence the moment Scar Face ambushed him.
When Alp wanted to turn around, the brothers immediately wrapped their arms around Alp, and he couldn't dodge Scar Face's attack.
In the next second, Scar Face's hammer had landed heavily on Alp's head.
With a muffled grunt, Alp passed out.
Phew!
Scar Face and the brothers let out a long sigh.
Dooragan and the brothers were furious because Alp had beaten them up moments earlier, and they started raining punches on Alp to vent their anger.
Scar Face ignored the three of them. Alp is a big man, and he's not going to die. The most important thing right now is getting the Heavenly Spirit Stones!
With that in mind, Scar Face approached the Heavenly Spirit Stones warily.
When he finally saw the Heavenly Spirit Stones, he yelled, “Gosh! Wow!”
What is it?
Dooragan and his brothers heard Scar Face and ran toward him.
Scar Face pointed at the Heavenly Spirit Stones with his trembling finger. “L-Look...”
Dooragan and his brothers froze on the spot when they saw the Heavenly Spirit Stones. There are over twenty Heavenly Spirit Stones! Twenty!
It was a shocking sight because that amount was more than what the four of them had collected accumulatively. This is definitely an enormous find! No wonder the aura we felt just now was that intense!
Scar Face was overjoyed, and he quickly kept the Heavenly Spirit Stones. “Mr. Williams is going to be over the moon when I pass these Heavenly Spirit Stones to him. He's surely going to reward me handsomely!”
Right at that moment, the Theos' Mark on Scar Face's arm started to burn.
Seeing that, Scar Face corrected himself, “Once Mr. Williams has given these Heavenly Spirit Stones to Theos, Theos is going to be elated! Let's go. Let's give these Heavenly Spirit Stones to Mr. Williams, and Mr. Williams will pass them to Theos!”
As soon as those words fell, the mark on Scar Face's arm became less painful.
Scar Face was sniggering inwardly. Theos' Mark is stupid. I can just trick it with a few words.
Due to how heavy Alp was, the brothers were moving incredibly slowly because they were dragging Alp along the way.
Not wanting to waste time, they ended up tying Alp to a gigantic tree. We'll come back for Alp after delivering the Heavenly Spirit Stones.
Meanwhile, Zeke was getting frustrated thinking about the issue concerning the fire seed. I've conducted countless experiments with fire from a natural source. No matter how intense the fire was, I couldn't forge the divine weapons. I can only make Black Level divine weapons.
By then, they were sure that the fire seed was the obstacle going forward.
Despite knowing the cause of the problem, they didn't know where to obtain the required fire seed.
Just as Zeke felt a headache coming, someone knocked on his door.
“Come in,” Zeke said and put the tools in his hands aside.
Scar Face and the triplets entered the room.
Zeke swept a glance at Dooragan and his brothers and thought they looked unfamiliar.
Before Zeke could say a word, the four of them had already dropped to their knees.
