To the Depth of Abyss
Chapter 58: Nature Rule

"That piece of shit, he came late and let us fight that disaster. When he finally came and saved the day, he casually claimed all the drop items!"

Lucas rattled on as he flipped all the King Bear Meat chunks on the grill.

After the battle with Catastrophe, the three Gold Hunter of Floor 1 gathered at one circle and had lunch together.

There were supposed to be four of them, but one of them is injured.

Jordan looked at the emergency tent, asked: "How is that young man condition?"

Near the emergency tent area, there are already lots of carts coming from the West Station. Bring all the participants and Priests that belong to the station.

In one of the carts, a certain group appointed their group leader to be brought to the Station Health Center.

"He was pushing his body too much. Giving up the infection invading his body to protect the party, and from what I hear, he's in pretty bad shape."

Having two infected hands without cure is a sad thing. That means Randi can no longer fight as Hunters. He had become the so-called, disabled Hunter.

"But it can't be helped, right?" asked Jordan. "I mean, he did it to protect the whole group, and he did it."

Randi's sacrifice was a very heroic sacrifice, more heroic than the appearance of the Greedy Young Master.

Shawn agreed with that. "If Randi doesn't master [Beast Claw; Double-twin Slash] and straining his body, maybe we'll see Lucas in pieces state now."

Lucas stopped working and aimed his spatula at Shawn. "I could save myself in every situation! But I hate to admit it, I can only use my strength to protect myself."

"Even though you got blown away once before."

"It's because I'm at a disadvantage!"

Whatever it is, their battle is over. Things remains is only tired and hungry.

The roasted King Bear Meat is done. Lucas took his share, then sat down to eat without a table.

Jordan and Shawn took their own.

Lunch time.

After finishing two pieces, Jordan stopped. He immediately remembered something he forgot to ask.

"I heard that Jeff and Hwang helped you guys against the Evolved Father Tree?"

Shawn answered the question after finishing his drink. "The two of them had a chance to compete with the giant tree monster, but after that they disappeared."

Jeff, Ranger of the Giant Leaf Woods, and Hwang, the Firestorm Archer.

"The two living legends have indeed retired from being a Hunter. Even so, they still had an obligation to protect Floor 1 from threats like Catastrophe. I pity you guys cuz getting left by them."

"Ikr! They have the strength to compete with that fking monster, but they just flaunted their strength, then just disappeared! Like that damn Greedy piece of shit!"

Lucas still had time to ramble on even though his mouth is still full of food.

"Maybe they have their own reason. Like counting on you to protect this Floor."

Jordan tries to think positive in every situation that has happened. Then he remembered an individual who saved them, but at that time Jordan could not replace the person anywhere.

"Regarding the Greedy Young Master, where is he now?"

Jordan had a chance to see the mighty figure from Silver Steel Mountain. But now that person has disappeared somewhere.

"We have assigned a search team to replace his whereabouts. But alas, that person disappeared, and he kept his word to take all the drop items," replied Shawn.

"That bastard, I won't forgive him."

Even though Hunters from the west and Jordan group also took part, it was the Greedy Young Master who solved all the problems alone.

Evolved Father Tree, all types of Bear Beasts, and all types of Bull Hornets that remained at that time. The Greedy Young Master killed all the monsters himself. Got him listed who conquered the 1st Floor Catastrophe alone.

"It can't be helped, he actually conquered that Catastrophe by himself. To claim all drop items is his right," Jordan confirmed.

They also didn't get any losses in the Catastrophe at that time. Except for feeling tired and nearly dying in battle.

Neither Shawn nor Lucas could argue with that fact. Although Lucas was still so upset.

"At least he has to give even a little to appreciate our hard work!"

"Is King Bear Meat not enough for you?"

The entire King Bear Meats they ate at that time are remaining drop item, or so-called scraps, that the Greedy Young Master left for them.

"But, man, his figure and strength really reminded me of the Sword Saint. Even though the principles of using their sword skills are different, they still share the same overpowering abilities related to swords."

Jordan remembered the times when he had followed the Sword Saint in the battle on the Second Floor.

While the 3 Gold Hunters were enjoying their rest, a man came over with a worried expression.

"Lucas, this is bad! Ian the Silver Warhammer is here!"

For a moment Lucas got a heart attack at that news. But after thinking for a moment, he didn't care.

"Just let him do what he wants. Besides, there's nothing more he can rob from us."

Greedy Young Master had already robbed all item drops that should have divided equally. So there's nothing else to be robbed of them, that was Lucas thought.

"Hey, is it just me or the Evolved Father Tree's body is three times bigger than the usual Father Tree," said Jordan.

Shawn also looks at Evolved Father Tree corpse. "Of course, it's because Evolved Father Tree has arms and legs. Plus, we also might can take the parts of his body that got destroyed."

Giant Leaf Tree cannot be used as raw material because their wood element is hard as rock.

But it's different with Father Tree. When he becomes a corpse, Father Tree's body that loses life energy will become more tender and can be harvested as natural items.

"That means, Evolved Father Tree is the same as two to three normal Father Trees. So the total money we can get from him is around 10k to 15k."

Lucas glared at the classification. Suddenly he stopped eating, took a sip of his drink, then got up and picked up his King Bear Coat.

"Let's go, Shawn!"

Jordan and Shawn smiled amusedly at the change in their partner's attitude.

Shawn got up too and followed Lucas from behind as a representative from West Hunter.

"Good luck!"

Jordan did not take part because his territory is only Gate Village.

Large muscular body, with brown and bald skin. Holding a giant Silver Warhammer in his right hand. Behind him stood a group of about 25 Gold Hunters.

Lucas meets the group led by a Platinum Hunter.

"I didn't think you are the one who would come, Ian!"
