Book 6: Chapter 53: Moonlun Chain
Kelly was gazing at the young man smiling warmly through the projection, yet she didn’t know quite how to feel inside. The novice Apostle who had used the “Lost” team’s internal-card invitation was not this person before her, but another novice Main Tank.
Surprisingly, the Elf Elder responsible for tallying the Elven Race’s war spoils in the end recognized that novice MT. Like Qin Lun, he came from Moonlight Forest, likely another friend of the young man.
Qin Lun refusing to use the invitation presented by the “Lost” team made his intentions crystal clear. He disliked the team’s presumptuous attempts to win him over, subtly indicating he had absolutely no desire to join their service.
Kelly didn’t know how much their probing influenced his decision, but it now seemed they’d personally pushed this outstanding Apostle toward other teams. Judging from Qin Lun’s activities over the past few days, even if he later made deals in other alliance demiplanes, just looking at his trades at the Auction House brought him over two hundred thousand Shattered Crystals.
Clearly, he’d received invitations from other alliances and teams, participated in the Metropolis Domination War, and profited handsomely from it.
This outcome left all the leaders of the “Lost” team deeply embarrassed. Yet, Kelly was powerless. The person who decided to test Qin Lun with the invitation had been the Leader of Lost himself. In any case, they couldn’t exactly blame their own Leader over a single novice Apostle.
Who could have guessed Qin Lun had so many connections in Devil’s Horn? After all, this novice Apostle had only lived in Apostle City for about three months.
“Leader Kelly, thank you for the Heavenly Insight Eye scroll. It’s a very convenient Eye Technique,” Qin Lun replied, his smile composed and confident.
“Are you truly not considering joining Lost?” Seeing Qin Lun’s slightly phony smile again, Kelly suddenly felt an urge to punch something. Remembering the friendship he had offered before, she couldn’t help asking once more.
