Chapter 387 - 381 Awakening
Leon slept during this period, and the dragons attacked the Lost Plateau’s Fire Giant Fortress... The Fire Giant Fortress is likely located in the deep mountains or the heart of a volcano, making it easy to find.
To avoid resistance from the Fire Giants, there might be a steel magic statue within the Fire Giant Fortress. Everyone acted in teams; resistance was fought against without mercy, but unfortunately, even after scouring the Lost Plateau, not many Fire Giants were captured.
Only dozens of Fire Giants were caught, some were sent to mine in the half-plane where the Flame Divine Successor slept — a plane initially filled with giant animals, but now there are fewer due to Leon’s large appetite — the rest were brought back to Watchtower Port. Fire Giants are the greatest blacksmiths, architects, and technicians among giants, so they are useful in many areas.
The spoils gathered from looting the Fire Giant Fortress consisted mostly of rare metals and minerals, with few gold coins and gemstones. Selling them could fetch a large sum, but no one dared to act rashly. Everyone agreed to wait until Leon woke up to distribute them.
Everyone knows Leon is generous, but he dislikes presumptuous actions, often saying, "I can give it to you, but you can’t take it."
Under such circumstances, those who came from afar to help Leon had to wait at Watchtower Port until Leon woke up to receive their reward and return home. Luckily, Leon didn’t sleep for too long; he woke up groggily after two months.
Leon awoke from hunger. After eating a bit, he finally had the energy to handle some matters.
His idea was to take half of the spoils from looting the Fire Giant Fortress, then pay the adventurers’ commission, and compensate the families of the deceased. The rest would be divided among everyone since participation was key; even those who didn’t contribute much would receive a share, and those who did significant work would receive greater rewards.
The most important thing was that the body of the Flame Divine Successor, a treasure in itself, could not be touched by anyone; that was Leon’s possession, kept in the molten lava of the volcano using magic preservation until he had time to deal with it.
