In front of the bonfire, Adams and Vivian were munching on the roast meat that Garen had handed them.
Vivian was no longer crying over the delicious food, but she still ate carefully and savored the taste.
After eating the food, the others became energetic and were chatting excitedly.
“What was that food just now? I didn’t notice it when I was eating. Now that I think about it, it’s really sweet!”
“Yes! It’s so delicious! I really want to repent for my actions!”
“I heard from Miss Vivian that those are fruits. They’re extremely precious food, and priceless! But Big Brother Adams gave them to us just like that!”
Just like Garen, everyone was now addressing Adams as Big Brother. After they talked about how precious the fruit was, they all looked at Adams with eyes filled with gratitude.
Adams suddenly felt very uncomfortable being stared at by so many emotional gazes. He hurriedly said, “Don’t look at me like that. I’m not the Saint you think I am. I just have too much food so my heart doesn’t ache at all!”
Everyone, including Vivian, burst into laughter upon hearing Adams’ words.
They did not believe Adams’ words. Who would complain about having too much food in this world? Adams probably only said that to make everyone feel better.
Standing up, Garen said sincerely, “Big Brother, say no more! We’ll remember your kindness. No matter what happens in the future, as long as you give the order, we can even offer you our lives!” Standing up, Garen said sincerely,
“That’s right, our lives shall belong to Big Brother from now on!” everyone chorused
Vivian, who was standing in front of the bonfire, couldn’t help but be moved. Adams’ bold style had not only won him six subordinates, but also their loyalty.
Vivian was from the Kevin Family, so naturally, she knew how difficult it was to win over people’s hearts. However, Adams had done it so easily!
It’s a pity that these people are all ordinary people. Even if they survive, they won’t be able to complete the Coming-of-age Ceremony mission with their current strength and won’t be able to become cultivators. They won’t be of much help to Adams. If they have a chance to become cultivators, then Adams’ fruits will be worth the while! Vivian thought to herself, and once again felt that Adams was being too generous.
However, Adams shook his head and said, “You should keep your lives for yourself. Life is always more precious than food. I hope that you will remember this well in the future. Also, what I said just now is the truth. Not only do I have food on me, but I also have a lot of other things. A quantum ring with 100 compartments can barely store them all. Having you guys eat these foods is also to relieve me of some burden!”
Garen and the others still did not believe him. They shook their heads and said, “Big Brother, everyone will remember your kindness to us, so you don’t have to say such things. We’ve only been here for a week. How many things can you possibly have in the ring?”
Adams did not explain further. He simply waved his hand and took out all the Zerg organs and low-level materials he had collected along the way.
Crash!
Garen and the others felt their vision blur as countless things appeared before their eyes, piling up into a small mountain.
“W-what are all these?” Garen exclaimed in shock.
Adams said, “These are all the resources that I collected a few days ago, but they are not useful for my coming-of-age ceremony missions. I can’t bear to throw them away, and they take up space. They’re causing me a headache. Take a look at your missions and take whatever you can use!”
“The coming-of-age ceremony mission? Yes, yes, we still have the coming-of-age ceremony missions. I forgot about it!”
Garen suddenly came to a realization. A person like him, who had no family background and was not good at fighting, was not hopeful about the coming-of-age ceremony. At Adams’ reminder, he hurriedly said to the others, “Don’t just stand there, look at your mission list!”
“Oh, right, right, right!” Everyone took out their mission list and gathered in front of the mountain of resources to identify them.
Vivian, who was in front of the bonfire, couldn’t help but say to Adams, “That’s cheating! You’re helping them cheat!”
Adams was already used to Vivian making a fuss about nothing. He pursed his lips indifferently before continuing to eat his roast meat.
Seeing that Adams remained unmoved, Vivian continued, “The purpose of the coming-of-age ceremony is to evaluate everyone’s ability and talent. It’s unfair to others if you help them cheat!”
The down-to-earth Adams had a much broader horizon than Vivian. Seeing that she was so serious, he said, “Actually, you’re mistaken! The reason why the human race holds such a coming-of-age ceremony is because of the lack of resources. It’s not just the resources for nurturing cultivators that is insufficient, but the basic resources needed for survival are also severely insufficient. Therefore, this method is necessary to reduce the consumption of resources!
“Those who are stupid and unlucky will die in their coming-of-age ceremony. Only those who are smart will survive. Only those who have a background or are lucky enough can complete the missions on the list and become a cultivator. This way, they can save as many resources as possible. Me helping them is just them being lucky!”
After hearing Adams’ analysis, Vivian couldn’t help but feel a little sad. She lowered her head and sighed, “If it’s really as you said, then isn’t this coming-of-age ceremony just another way of killing people?”
“This is simply the human race’s last resort for the sake of better continuity. If we had enough resources, we wouldn’t have to send so many young people to their deaths!” Adams sighed with sorrow.
Vivian suddenly turned to Adams with a determined expression on her face and said, “Perhaps you have that ability!”
Adams smiled and didn’t say anything else. He just wanted to live well in this world. He didn’t have that great an ambition.
Just as Vivian was about to encourage Adams, Garen suddenly ran over and said with a slightly embarrassed expression, “Ms. Vivian, we don’t know what those materials are at all. Since you’re very knowledgeable, can you help us identify them?”
“Oh, okay!”
After Adams’ analysis and seeing Garen’s expectant gaze, Vivian nodded in agreement and stood up to help everyone differentiate the names of each material.
“This is a C-rank ore, Fire Copper Ore!”
“This is the gallbladder of a B-rank black-eyed snake!”
“Th-this is actually the silk gland of an S-rank scarlet spider!”
“This should be the stinger of an F-rank Berserk Bee. Wait, the stinger of a Berserk Bee…”
Vivian suddenly froze upon seeing this. She pulled out her mission list before turning to Adam with an embarrassed expression as she asked, “Adams, can I take some as well? There are also materials that I need here.”
Adams cheerfully said, “Of course! Take them all if you need!”
“That’s great!” Vivian jumped up excitedly like an innocent little girl and joined Garen and the others in selecting what she needed.
“I-I have already completed seven missions. If I complete one more, I can become a cultivator!” someone shouted excitedly after checking the list.
“I’ve completed six of them. I’m only lacking two more to be able to cultivate!”
“Hey, I’m at six too. I’m almost done with the missions!”
After looking at their mission list, everyone’s hopes of becoming a cultivator were ignited.
Adams, who was sitting in front of the bonfire, covered his face with his hands and sighed, “Why have I only completed one mission? When will I be able to complete the S-rank evaluation?”
