"Advance?"
Hearing that word, Huai Shi felt as though a lifetime had passed.
Right, I still needed to advance.
Advance's advance, advance's rank. What a distant word. With an old pigeon like Russell flying around in the sky, he had thought he would be waiting for it for the rest of his life.
Oh, after running wild outside until your legs nearly broke, you finally remembered that your student had been waiting to advance for ages?
What were you doing before?
"So?"
Huai Shi pulled over a chair from the terrace and sat down, asking directly, "What about the Oceanic Divinity material? What treasure did you fish out of the Unified Bureau?"
"A bunch of stingy bastards. Not worth mentioning."
Russell clicked his tongue and shook his head. "The Unified Bureau wanted to use Poseidon's lousy fork to make up the numbers for you. I refused."
"What the hell!"
Huai Shi blurted out. He had barely sat down before nearly jumping back to his feet in shock.
The trident wielded by Poseidon, one of the three great divine kings of the Greek Lineage? It was already absurd enough that the Unified Bureau still had something like that in storage, and it was even more absurd that this bastard had turned it down!
"You rejected that? Then what the hell do you want?"
"Relax, Huai Shi."
Russell shook his head helplessly. "You need to think long-term, right? It's just a lousy fork. It's been broken for years, gathering dust in a warehouse. The Great Arcanum have already stripped away all its correction value. It's just an empty shell now. Other than having enough history to pass as an antique in a museum and earn ticket money, what else can it do?"
"It's still a thousand times better than anything else!"
