Shortly after the trio ready their things, with so equipping their new gears, and so not so much.
Unlike Carn and Jeff, who were satisfied with the dropped loot of the Skyrazor Harbinger, Xu Feng frowned upon it.
Though it was mainly because he had better equipnt.
He bought quite a few goodies from Blacksmith Fiona, but there was no opportunity to equip them due to his low level.
Now that he reached the level requirent, Xu Feng still hadn't equipped them yet.
And no, it wasn't that he forgot about it, but he felt that it wasn't needed. If he equipped them now, then with the perception of Jeff and Carn, they would take notice of his change instantly.
By that ti, it would simply create a troubleso matter with them questioning or looking at him suspiciously.
'Those with wealth tend to be judged.' Xu Feng thought, preferring to stay humble until it was ti for him to show off.
With that in mind, the trio continued to advance steadily, and luckily for them, there was no more random aggression from so monsters.
"Okay, we've arrived at the territory of the Ironhide Behemoth." Jeff paused and explained cautiously.
The Ironhide Behemoth might be a bit inferior when compared to the Skyrazor Harbinger, but that didn't an it was easier to take down.
After all, the defense of the Ironhide Behemoth was no joke, and its offensive power was technically more fierce and domineering.
Just when Jeff was about to explain a battle plan, Xu Feng raised his hand.
Dumbfounded, Jeff turned to him and asked, "Is there sothing wrong?"
Carn was equally confused by his signal, but kept quiet, seemingly waiting for him to talk.
"I'll take the command for the battle this ti," he revealed, astonishing Jeff and Carn. Throughout their journey, Xu Feng had only been supporting in the background silently, offering zero advice or strategy.
It was the sa for the Skyrazor Harbinger.
They didn't even know what his plan was when he isolated himself from them and decided to confront the beast head-on.
And although Carn didn't ntion it, she was truly infuriated by his risky action. She rely kept it to herself because everything ended well and she couldn't fault him for the action either.
Had it not been for Xu Feng's sacrificial move, along with a thod to resurrect himself, they would have lost their healer and the battle would have been devastating.
Yet now, Xu Feng suddenly wanted to take the lead.
How could they not be surprised?"
"Are you sure about that?" Jeff asked cautiously, ensuring his tone didn't sound too doubtful. As an experienced rcenary, he would naturally want to take the lead and command of the battle, considering it was the norm in every team's battle.
The strongest or more experienced person would usually command the others to maintain an efficient battle or raid.
"Yeah, I'm sure." Xu Feng responded. "I just want to end this battle quickly."
"..."
Although not much was said there, his statent was equivalent to saying Jeff was inadequate when compared to him.
Subconsciously, Jeff turned to Carn, seemingly looking at her for her response to this. It was as if he was programd to know that Carn's words had an effect on Xu Feng.
Sensing Jeff's gaze at her, Carn took a deep breath before deciding.
"If Feng wants to take the command, then he shall be the commander. I'm fine with it." She calmly said, choosing to trust Xu Feng. Their interaction might not be long, but throughout their ti, she knew he was not the type to speak nonsense. Unless it was necessary, he would usually refrain from talking.
"I supposed there's no more problem now, right?" Xu Feng assud an authoritative tone and glanced at Jeff.
Jeff scratched his head and relented.
"I have no problem with it." He responded and continued, "But if the battle is deed a failure, I will take over to avoid casualties."
If even Carn agreed, it was two against one, and the worse outco would be having to restart if they were to fail. Thus, he rather gave himself a leeway to regain command if the battle was going into disarray.
Not surprised by Jeff's adamant suggestion to take over, Xu Feng readily agreed.
Shortly after, the trio entered the territory base of the Ironhide Behemoth, and their hostile environnt heightened trendously.
"Why do I feel more weary walking here than outside?" Carn questioned, feeling like a heavy boulder was placed on her back.
"That's because the concentration of mana is very restricted, causing you to feel discomfort." Xu Feng calmly explained.
"You should consu another Stamina Potion to lessen your weariness. We're going to have to move a lot once we encounter the Ironhide Behemoth."
Without hesitation, Carn quickly retrieved another Stamina Potion and consud it.
"Do you want one as well, Feng?"
"No, you should keep it to yourself."
"Are you sure? I still have two left if I give you one. We're going to move a lot, so we can't have you remain still like a scarecrow."
Speechless, Xu Feng promptly ignored her and stepped forward. "Jeff, when we begin the battle, do your best to immobilize it rather than deal damage."
"Rest assured, I'll try my best." Jeff nodded, his grip tightening on his battle axe along with his new gloves shining brightly. Unlike Carn who had turned off the glowing effect, Jeff was proud and loved the effect.
'He really ignored …' Carn twitched her brows, confused by Xu Feng's refusal to accept her Stamina Potion.
She rely wanted to repay the favor of him giving her the Superior Uncommon equipnt. Yet it was clear that he wanted her to feel indebted and maliciously doing so.
"How hateful," she pursed her lips, finding herself not able to hate him to be fair.
anwhile, the trio continued to advance within the lair of the Ironhide Behemoth.
A few minutes later, they were rather astounded by the sight in front of them.
"Damn, did these behemoths copulate for years?" Xu Feng twitched his brows.
