Capítulo 1126: 348.Life is short

"Friar Lophi, these are the six Soul Gems I've brought."

Lamont placed a small bag of gems in front of Lophi, who didn't even glance at him but waved his hairy arms dismissively to send him away.

"Leave, our trade ends here. From now on, I shall no longer purchase Soul Gems from you. This is the last time."

Lophi shouted for a Spider Mother Attendant, who brought a box of Death Gems to the small creature before him.

All Lamont could think about was returning to report to Elder Skimming Light.

He took the jewelry box, shoved it into his pocket, turned, and left without a moment's delay.

On the boat back to mankind's territory, he deviated from his usual silence and struck up a conversation with the low-ranking Undead Acolytes on board.

During the conversation, he subtly steered the topic towards the sea monster disguised as a humanoid creature.

Undead Acolytes are typically introverted, but the "gossiping heart" knows no bounds of race or life form.
