Runemaster in the Last Days - Chapter 168

Chapter 168: People from the Association are Coming
“Good.” The representative from the Magic Association nodded in satisfaction and then went to make a call.

The representative from the Martial Arts Association looked at his old friend and then rubbed his head. Well, now that there was no need for him to do anything, he could just go back…

“There will be some people from Martial Arts Association and Magic Association arriving today,” The representative from the Martial Arts Association reminded. “You might want to prepare more people later.”

More people coming?

Mr. Jones nodded with a sigh and then glanced at his first son. He patted his son’s shoulder. “You’ll be the one to take care of this matter later.”

In front of the people from these two association, they didn’t care too much about Mr. Jones. The only one they ever gave face was Samuel because Samuel was really strong. So if there were people from these two association coming, Mr. Jones would leave them to his son.

“I know.” Samuel sighed and then pointed towards Mr. Mile with his chin. “I thought that you originally want me to deal with them.”

“No, there are too many small bases that can barely stand. There’s not enough time to come and help all of them.” Mr. Jones shook his head.

The world had changed.

There were many people who were suffering.

They can helps some people who came to City A Base but he couldn’t say anything about the others.

After all, he was not omnipotent.

And he also has his own selfish desire, which was to protect the people who were close to him. He couldn’t selflessly help others who were strangers to him.

The Jones Family was a businessman and not soldiers. Their sense of righteousness was not that strong. While they had no interest to collaborate with the enemies of the nation, but they would not be willing to sacrifice themselves for the nation.

Their bottom lines were different.

“I see.” Samuel looked at the few people in front of him who were discussing the distribution of the magic beasts’ corpses eagerly. He didn’t feel much when he saw them and had no interest to intercept this matter.

After that, he turned to look at the back where Riya and Amelia were standing. The two girls were standing beside a building, which blocked most of their bodies. But with Samuel’s sharp sense, how could these two people hide?

Riya could use some magic to reduce her presence, but it was unnecessary.

She didn’t want to waste her mana to use that kind of magic when they have nothing to hide.

Anyway, once Samuel found them, she will push Amelia forward.

At most, Amelia would have to train more.

If Amelia were to know what her friends were thinking, it was estimated that she would lose her temper and dragged them to suffer with her.

Though, it was another question whether Samuel would be wiling to punish them with her. After all, they were other people’s children.

“They’re really arrogant,” Amelia murmured as she watched this scene. But she was happy that they didn’t have to associate themselves with the Mile Family. The Magic Association would be the one to deal with them.

Riya nodded. “And they have the reason to be.”

“Tsk, isn’t it just being a bit more powerful?” Amelia complained in a low voice.

A bit more powerful?

Riya’s expression was a bit strange as she looked at Amelia. She really wanted to tell her best friend that once their rank was high enough, they would have ability comparable to destroy cities and nations. Right now, Riya was sure that there was no problems for Samuel to destroy a few buildings.

She herself could destroy the entire City A if she wanted to with the chain formations. But it would take some time.

If she had reached rank 5…

Her formation coverage could reach half of the city at the very least. At that time, Riya doubted that there would be anyone who could compare to her in terms of area of damage.

Of course, Riya would not say this out loud.

She didn’t have the interest to let others know about this.

It would still take her some time to reach rank 5 anyway.

‘Perhaps I can also try to find other resources…’ But is there any?

The Green Planet has only been stimulated and the mana concentration increased sharply. But Riya knew very well that there were not many treasures that could attract people to come.

So she could only take the slow route.

Meditate every single day and strive to reach rank 5 at the fastest speed possible.

Even if it was difficult, Riya believed that with her formation, she would be able to reach rank 5 within a year’s time. After that… well, that was something for later and not something that Riya should concern herself with.

“Hmm?” Riya detected the presence of some people and looked into the distance. “There are people coming.”

“Who?” Amelia asked.

“It should be the people from the two associations,” Riya said slowly. “Didn’t you say that they plan to come to City A Base?”

“They didn’t plan to come here just like that but to arrange a base outside our base,” Amelia said.

“…Magic Association too?” Riya was stunned.

She didn’t expect that the Magic Association also coveted this area.

Why?

Was it because the number of magic beasts had decreased sharply from the very beginning? But since Riya hadn’t taken care of that formation, Riya was sure that there would be more magic beasts appearing soon.

She couldn’t take care of the entire world by herself.

*brmm*

Samuel also saw the rows of cars that came to them. He frowned and looked at his father, as if asking, ‘Why they come at the same time?’

Mr. Jones was silent.

He couldn’t answer that question.

The car stopped a few people came out. They swept their gazes before looking towards their arranged representative.

“Have you found a good place?”
