Chapter 52: Treasure Chests and Beast Taming
After subduing the Greed Treasure Chest, Mcgee did not stay idle. He began searching for resources nearby, and at the same time, he looked for all kinds of monsters to challenge and train.
The level of the beasts under his command was too low. Although he could kill many types of level 6 monsters under his command, in the end, his individual strength was still a little weak.
The Little Spirit Fox was considered one of the best among them. With its new skill, it had gained a considerable increase in close combat. As long as it leveled up another two levels, it might be able to use its red flame claw attack to deal a certain amount of damage to the Molten Lizard.
After adventuring for half a day, it was a pity that she could not level up.
However, along the way, he had obtained a lot of materials, which were all placed in the Greed Treasure Chest. When it was dusk, Mcgee brought the beasts back to their home to count the materials, and this little thing began to make a fuss.
“I don’t! Why!”
The Greed Treasure Chest glared at Mcgee. “It was clearly given to me. Why did you take it back!”
The Little Spirit Fox bared her teeth and went forward, “Master has the right to control everything we have, and it was only temporarily put in your custody. Why do you think?”
“I don’t care. What was given to me is already mine, don’t think about taking it back!”
The Little Spirit Fox just sneered, “I think you want to be dismantled.”
“Can you be reasonable!?” The Greed Treasure Chest did not have any actual combat ability. Therefore, it was helpless against the Little Spirit Fox’s threat. It could only look at Mcgee as if it was asking for help.
“It’s useless to look at master. I’ve never seen such a double-standard beast like you. On the one hand, you’re holding the thing that everyone put in your place and saying that it’s yours. But, on the other hand, you’re saying that we’re unreasonable.”
The Chameleon walked out. “Well, since you want to be reasonable, I’ll talk to you about the reason. One question. Which of the things that you took did you personally attacked and obtained?”
“I…” The Greed Treasure Chest choked.
“You have nothing to say, right?” The Heavenly Eye Spider Queen also spoke, looking at it with disdain. “I don’t know where you learned your bad habits. Lying, double standards, unreasonable willfulness. Each one is more annoying than the other.”
“Good! You all hate me. Then I’ll go!” The Greed Treasure Chest had been waiting for this moment, so it immediately walked out of its home.
In the end, a group of tamed beasts stood in front of it.
“What do you mean? If you hate me, I’ll go. Why stop me?”
Mcgee, who was preparing dinner, stood up. He did not even look at them, letting them do whatever they wanted.
The tamed beast came closer.
The Greed Treasure Chest kept retreating, and its eyes became fl.u.s.tered. “Hey, I’m telling you, don’t do anything rash. I… I know kung fu.”
The Little Spirit Fox sneered and forced it into a corner.
The back of the Greed Treasure Chest hit the wall. It had nowhere to retreat, and its heart skipped a beat.
“Brothers and sisters, the master should be happy to let us help him teach this idiot a lesson, right?” The Little Spirit Fox had already revealed its sharp teeth and claws.
The Heavenly Eye Spider Queen extended her sharp teeth. “I agree.”
“I agree too.” The Chameleon had already raised its claws.
“I think so too!” The timid Steel Fairy also joined in the fun.
Even Omori walked over expressionlessly. “You even dare to take my pickaxe. You really deserve to die.”
The body of Greed Treasure Chest’s trembled.
“Misunderstanding… misunderstanding…
“Don’t do it… let’s talk nicely…
“Everyone… I…
“Ah!!!”
The chest started to howl.
After Mcgee finished roasting the meat, he started to contact Romon.
“Romon, do you have the blueprints for a long-range weapon?”
Romon seemed to be a little busy. It took him almost ten minutes to reply.
“The blueprints are still relatively rare. However, I can help big brother Mcgee put up a bounty. What quality do you plan to accept?”
“Black iron or silver.”
“Okay.”
Roman began to help Mcgee search for it.
At this moment, the Greed Treasure Chest had been chased all over the yard by the tamed beast. There were scratches all over its body. If it ran a little slower, there would be a mark of the red flame claw attack on its b.u.t.t.
However, because it was a different kind of beast, and the tamed beasts did not use their full strength, it did not look like anything was wrong with it. It was just that its appearance was damaged.
“Little Spirit Fox!”
Mcgee shouted.
The Little Spirit Fox immediately stopped chasing it and obediently came to sit in front of Mcgee.
“Go and use the force of nature today and get another watermelon.”
The Little Spirit Fox took the order and left.
The Greed Treasure Chest thought it was finally out of its misery and could not help but heave a sigh of relief. But, in the end, Mcgee turned around and went back into the house!
“Master, why do you care about them!”
“Pfft.” The Heavenly Eye Spider Queen cursed as she chased after it. “Now you call him master? Where have you been?”
The Chameleon quickly attacked with a series of claw attacks.
The Greed Treasure Chest was about to cry. Although it was very resistant to attacks and did not die easily, the attack that hit its body was real, and it really hurt.
Mcgee took a chair and returned to sit at the door. He took the watermelon that the Little Spirit Fox had sent over, cut it, and leisurely chewed on it.
“One at a time. If you’re tired and can’t change it, don’t let it rest.”
The Spider Queen immediately said, “Don’t worry, master. I have four children.”
“Then go on.” Mcgee lowered his head and ate the melon.
The Greed Treasure Chest could not take it anymore. “Why are you doing this? I don’t recognize you as my master!”
“You never intended to treat me as your master. Do you think I’m stupid?”
“Well, let’s go our separate ways. We’ll go our separate ways from now on!”
Mcgee rolled his eyes. “Did I work for nothing today?”
The Greed Treasure Chest clenched its teeth. “What do you want?”
Mcgee ignored him and began to command the beast. “Tear it apart and let it spit out the materials. There must be a lot of treasures in its stomach, right?”
Thus, the two tamed beasts became even more ferocious.
“Wait! I’ll hand it over!” The Greed Treasure Chest could not hold on anymore. It directly opened its head and threw out all the materials from today.
“That’s right, stop.”
Mcgee raised his hand to signal. Seeing the unwilling look on the Greed Treasure Chest’s face, he chuckled and said, “You don’t have to be so angry. There is a limit to greed. I will naturally give you what I should give you. If you shouldn’t take it, don’t take it, understand?”
“What will you give me?” The Greed Treasure Chest immediately got to the point.
Mcgee smiled, and the Steel Fairy immediately flew to his shoulder and sat down.
“See? This Steel Fairy is an absolute treasure. As long as she wants, she can easily find treasures in a certain area nearby. So there’s definitely something you want.”
“Really?” The Greed Treasure Chest was skeptical.
“I relied on her to find you. What do you think?” Mcgee rubbed the Steel Fairy’s small head. “In the future, every once in a while, I’ll take her out to search for treasures. But, no matter what it is, it’s yours.”
“That’s good! You said it!” The Greed Treasure Chest became excited.
However, Mcgee ignored it and opened the private chat panel.
Romon had sent him a message.
