The Evolution of a Goblin to the Peak

Chapter 245 - Legion


Chapter 245 - Legion

Souta explained to them the real value of the precious fruits that he brought.

"I have a plan in my mind... You see these fruits...."

Lynn was speechless as she covered her mouth with her hand. She couldn't believe what she heard from Souta's mouth. Souta said that he could buy half of a city if he changed these fruits to coins. The infrastructures around the city were included in it.

Souta calculated the true value of a single city from the huge countries. The soldiers, buildings, and houses were all included in his calculation. After he finished his calculation, he estimated that he could buy half of a city from huge countries using these fruits.

Lumilia was still shocked even though she had an idea about the true value of these fruits. She looked at the bunch of fruits with a frown on her face. She couldn't hide her concern regarding these things. If Souta had a plan then she wanted to hear it to ease her worries. She knew that the value of these fruits surpassed the assets of the Asvares family.

"Damn!! Just what did you encounter in the forest, Souta!?" Brando blurted out as he took his hands away from the fruits. Now that he knew the true value of the fruits, he became afraid to touch the fruits.

"What!? If you have that amount of money you can do anything that you want!!" Bryan exclaimed when he heard Souta's words. He started to imagine what he could do if he had that amount of money.

"No, money isn't enough for a person to do anything in this world. You need power. If you have power money would naturally come to you." Souta replied to Bryan in a serious tone. Power was everything in this world. The three great countries became great countries because they have the power that could dominate the huge countries on this continent.

Yujin knew that these were mana fruits so he wasn't shocked at Souta's words. He already guessed it when he saw a bunch of mana fruits. He and Alophy knew a lot of things about mana fruits. That's why they easily recognized the mana fruits.

Alice was looking at the mana fruits with a plain expression. It wasn't her first time seeing a bunch of rare mana fruits. She was curious about how Souta managed to acquire these mana fruits. If her knowledge wasn't wrong it was hard to acquire these fruits. Just like that Dark Light Mango. Based on her knowledge that fruit was heavily guarded by a fourth evolution stage monster called Yin Yang Elephant.

The question was how Souta managed to acquire these fruits?

She could see that he was exhausted but didn't have any injuries or wounds in his body.

"Okay, each of you can have ten mana fruits. Just like what I've said before we'll put the rest in our treasury." Souta said as he looked at everyone.

"C-Can we really have ten of these fruits?" Brando asked as he looked at Souta with doubt in his eyes. He couldn't believe that Souta would give out things that have a high value.

"Yeah, I'm not lying when I said that you can have ten mana fruits. But there's a condition... And that's I want all the things that we will get in the dungeons in this place." Souta replied to Brando.

"The value of the treasures in low and mid-level dungeons couldn't be compared to the value of these mana fruits. Do tell us what's your plan? I'm sure that you have a plan in your head." Yujin spoke as he glanced at Souta at the corner of his eyes.

'Yujin is right. Souta wouldn't earn anything by exchanging the fruits to the treasures in low-level dungeons.' Lumilia thought as she silently agreed to Yujin's words.

"Don't underestimate the treasures in low-level dungeons. Sometimes an adventurer would find orange and red grade equipment inside those low-level dungeons." Souta replied to Yujin. "But that's not the point here... I want all of you to eat ten mana fruits and enhance your strength. Because I want to expand the Dark Oculus party into a legion."

"Expand our party into a legion? What does that mean?" Bryan asked as he slightly tilted his head. He couldn't understand what Souta mean by expanding their party into a legion.

"That's... I see... So that is your plan?" Yujin slightly raised his eyebrows. He finally understood what Souta was trying to do.

Souta looked at Lumilia and said, "Lumilia, explain to them what is a legion."

"Understood." Lumilia nodded before she faced everyone. She started to explain the difference between a normal party and a legion.

A legion was a bigger size of a party. For a party to become a legion, they needed at least one B-rank adventurer in their party. The said party would request an expansion in the Adventurers Guild. The Adventurers would approve of it after they check that they completed all the requirements to become a legion.

A base of operation was needed in Legion. As the Adventurers Guild would send people to install the quest board in their base and handle the reception. The reception of a legion was handled by the people from the guild. It was to avoid cheating by saying they completed the quest even though they haven't done it.

The advantage of a legion was the quest. Adventurers without affiliation to the legion couldn't accept that quest.

Legion has a rank. At rank one, a legion could have a maximum of fifty quests a week in their quest board. Five of these quests were B-rank quest involving powerful people and monsters. A bounty quest would be posted to it. A bounty quest involves killing or hunting people that have a bounty in their heads.

One more thing, a legion could select their hunting ground in the guild. The guild would forbid any adventurers from hunting inside the selected area.

Most of the nobles would prefer to ask the legion than a normal party of adventurers. For those who didn't know it, the quest from nobles has high rewards.

The thing that Souta wanted in the legion was the quest. Owning fifty quests a week was a huge benefit for his system. It means that he would earn exp, free attribute points, and skill points even though he wasn't the one who completed it. As long as it was completed by his legion members he would receive the rewards from his system.

But first, they needed one B-rank adventurer in their party...

After Lumilia's explanation, everyone understood what is a legion. But something was bothering them. They don't have a B-rank adventurer in their party at this moment.

Then, they realized something as they all turned their heads and looked at Souta.

Souta knew what they were thinking. He nodded his head and said, "That's right, I'm planning on taking the test to become a B-rank adventurer once we return to the Ladros city. I think I have the strength to become a B-rank adventurer."

"You mean... You're as strong as a guild master." Brando said in shock.

Bryan looked at Brando then at Souta when he heard Brando's words. "What?! You have that kind of power!!"

Bryan was shocked as he recalled from his memory in the Fersch dukedom that the guild master there fought a peak third evolution monster.

"Not quite. All the guild masters of Adventurers Guild are veterans. The guild master in Fersch dukedom is a veteran B-rank adventurer. It means that he's powerful among the B-rank adventurers. A top contender of B-rank, that's what a guild master is." Souta shook his head while replying to Bryan and Brando.

"I understand everything. As the main party of the leader, we need to grow stronger to match the power of the leader. It would solidify our status to the new member of the legion." Lumilia paused for a moment before she added, "That's why we don't need to hesitate to receive the mana fruits from Souta. All of this is for the Dark Oculus."

"That's right! Jin, take those fruits! I want it!" Alophy said in a happy tone to Yujin while pointing at the mana fruits.

"Souta gave it to me not yours," Yujin said to his spirit, Alophy.

"Jin!! Why are you like that!? We already said in the contract that what's your is mine and what's mine is yours!!" Alophy complained to Yujin as she squirmed on his shoulder.

"Um... What about me, brother Souta?" Cl.u.s.ter raised her hand and asked Souta. She felt that she wasn't included in their group.

"You'll also get ten mana fruits," Souta said with a smile. He stretched out his hand and patted her head.

"Yay!!" Cl.u.s.ter hopped around the room in excitement.

'I'll let her join the legion later.' Souta thought while looking at Cl.u.s.ter.

"But I needed to pass the exam first. If I failed the promotion exam then all the plan is for nothing. I needed to prepare myself first." He said to everyone with a serious expression. That's why he will get the other [Soul Blood Earring] to increase his strength.
