Chapter 2621: Chapter 2622: Torn Apart and Devoured

…

“How can they do this? At this rate, it’s going to delay everything!”

The people around Captain Liu looked at Sui Zimo making porridge and felt incredibly anxious, glaring hatefully in that direction.

If it weren’t for their captain’s orders, they really would have gone to argue with Sui Zimo and Lin Caisang. Couldn’t they just make something simple to eat so everyone could get moving?

At this speed, when will they ever reach the meeting point?

“Alright, everyone just say less!”

Captain Liu’s cold gaze swept over Lin Caisang and the others, then looked at his own team members.

Did they think he was feeling any better? Although allying with Lin Caisang brought many benefits, it also came with plenty of frustration, just like now.

Lin Caisang and his group didn’t care about anyone else’s feelings, doing whatever they pleased.

“Captain, are you just going to watch like this? Aren’t those guys too arrogant?” Lu Tianfeng’s subordinate asked Captain Liu.

Regardless of whether he was trying to stir up trouble, Sui Zimo and Lin Caisang were indeed arrogant. With so many people waiting, everyone had to wait for Sui Zimo to finish preparing a meal for his wife before they could move on.

If that’s not arrogance and disregard for others, then what is?

“So what if they’re arrogant?”

Captain Liu coldly glanced at him, retorting.

“They have the capital to be arrogant, what can we do? Really separate from them and go our own way? Hmph, do you think this magical forest is your backyard where you can walk as you like?

Along the way, there are many high-level demons. If we accidentally encounter one, having Captain Lin and the others around means we can still put up a fight. If it’s just a few of us, we might as well wait to be eaten by demons!”

Looking at Lin Caisang’s group, he was still willing to follow them, and there was a reason for it. If they really parted ways now, danger would be much closer.

He didn’t want his momentary anger to put himself in danger.

“Until we reach the meeting point, I don’t want to hear any more bad talk about Captain Lin’s group from you. If you anger Captain Lin’s group, don’t blame me for not warning you — you’ll end up being devoured by the magical forest’s demons!”

“Hiss!”

Upon hearing his words, others gasped.

Indeed, the demons they encountered earlier weren’t ones they could defeat, while Lin Caisang’s group could easily kill them.

Of course, saying it was easy might be an exaggeration, but it certainly took them some time.

But indeed, they hadn’t sustained a scratch, which seemed true, right?

This just proved they genuinely had real skills.

“Captain, are we just going to keep waiting?” someone asked.

“What’s wrong with waiting for a bit?”

Captain Liu frowned in displeasure, asking.

“It’s just a meal’s time, how long can it be? Instead of complaining here, why don’t you look around to see if there are any nice herbs nearby?”

He was right about this. Staring at Lin Caisang’s group was pointless.

Even if they kept staring, those guys wouldn’t give them their food for free. It was better to see if there were any valuable herbs nearby, which they could collect and sell for some money.
