Chapter 182 161. Lia Cries (Two in One, Subscribe Please!)
This honor might one day turn into a legend, forever circulating within White Dove City.
Even the stubborn Lia, raised her Greatsword in exhilaration and cheered.
All rivalry with the Phoenix Tail Flower Team, enemies, all were forgotten behind their minds as they gathered around Lin Da with Aiko and others.
Without a second thought, everyone reached out and joyously flung Lin Da into the air!
"Red Armored Crab King, defeated successfully!"
"Glory to the Snow Goose and Phoenix Tail Flower Teams!"
"Hmph, today I won\'t call you Small Fry!"
Lin Da, surrounded by stars, felt somewhat uncomfortable. He used to be the one tossing others in the air, quietly working hard in unseen places.
But seeing the overflowing smiles on everyone\'s faces, he couldn\'t help but reveal a slight smile.
The feeling of everyone jubilantly cheering together, united in defeating the Magical Creature, was indeed great.
And for the people of Snow Goose, this battle held extraordinary significance.
Like a spring rain washing away the gloom in their hearts, releasing all the accumulated frustrations—the challenges Snow Goose faced since Lin Da\'s departure had cost them dearly; even achieving victory left the team members with little joy.
One could only say that the weight on their chest had lessened a bit.
The pressure still existed, and everyone was still unclear about the future.
Just one person less, and yet the change was so significant.
But today\'s cooperative battle made the people of Snow Goose feel as if they had reclaimed the old times.
It all came back, everything!
In a daze, Lin Da was still with the Snow Goose Adventure Team.
In the team, Aiko took extra care of Lin Da, Klrona no longer called him Small Fry, and fought alongside Lin Da.
Even Lia rushed to Lin Da\'s side, thinking about sharing the burden.
Although Aiko and everyone knew these times could not be returned to.
But silently, they chose to temporarily forget that fact, soaking in the past times during the celebration.
At some point, Lia had disappeared from the group.
Only Aiko saw her, a lonely figure with her Greatsword, heading in a different direction.
The normally greedy Lia didn\'t inquire about the spoils of war, didn\'t even glance at them, and quietly left amidst everyone\'s laughter.
Undoubtedly, the captain, had made a certain decision: Snow Goose would give up all materials from the Red Armored Crab King.
From a team member\'s perspective, Aiko felt that Lia\'s action was capricious. How could Klyne, Oru, and the new member Phyllis, willingly give up the spoils?
But as a friend, Aiko felt relieved. It indicated that Lia was starting to realize her neglect of duty as the captain of Snow Goose, this action silently expressing her apology to Lin Da.
"Lin Da, thank you."
As the celebration drew to a close, Aiko, on behalf of Snow Goose, said slowly with a sincere smile on her face.
"What?" Lin Da didn\'t understand what Aiko meant.
But the other members of Snow Goose smiled knowingly, fully aware of the true meaning behind Aiko\'s words.
It was Lin Da who once again made them realize the meaning of being an adventurer. Through thrilling challenges and acquiring spoils of war, they could gain fame and even leave their own legend.
In such a journey, even if one dies young, there wouldn\'t be as much regret.
"I will become the mage you want me to be."
Aiko\'s lips curled into a confident smile, gazing at Monica behind Lin Da, and said softly, "And until then, don\'t let any other mages join Phoenix Tail Flower, okay? With the two of us, the magical output is enough."
Lin Da and Monica were both taken aback.
Chloe raised her head, "Huh? Aiko, you...!"
You, you\'re not thinking of betraying Snow Goose, are you?
Klyne also looked at Aiko in surprise, which was almost like openly stating her wish to join Lin Da\'s Phoenix Tail Flower Team! Find adventures on empire
Lin Da thought for a moment, "If I invite you, would you join?"
"Holy Mage Aiko doesn\'t come that cheap."
Aiko shook her head lightly, "Only if you genuinely ask me to join will I consider it. After all, Lia is my friend, and who would trust someone who easily abandons their friend as a teammate?"
Lin Da reflected seriously and said, "That\'s true."
"And me." Chloe hesitated, hands behind her back, "If, I mean if, would you invite me to your adventure team?"
"Snow Goose needs you." Lin Da rubbed Chloe\'s head and said with a gentle smile, "Go protect your team\'s captain, that\'s what you should do as a Heavy Armored Warrior."
"Oh..."
Chloe looked down, lost in thought.
When it came to distributing the spoils of war, Aiko and the others casually waved their hands, showing no attachment to the corpse of the Red Armored Crab King.
"Partner, this is what you deserve."
Oru\'s large hand patted Lin Da\'s shoulder, smiling and showing his white teeth: "Without you taking the hits upfront, we couldn\'t even escape. Snow Goose gaining the reputation of \'defeating the Red Armored Crab King\' is enough."
Those who doubted Snow Goose will be silent after today, and the major businesses will resume cooperation with Snow Goose.
Together with Phoenix Tail Flower, they are the adventure teams that defeated the Red Armored Crab King!
Such strength and potential are enough to place it among the top in the Rock-level Squad.
Sometimes reputation is more valuable than immediate profits.
Klyne also smiled tactfully, "Lin Da, we have never reciprocated the help you provided to Snow Goose in the early years, this Red Armored Crab King\'s material, you keep it. Phoenix Tail Flower Team, needs to break into the rock level, right? Upgrading to level 20 equipment is quite an expense."
