Without having found any loot, the players left via the teleportation gate one by one. Only Qian Xiaohao approached the bronze throne, carefully sweeping his gaze across its surface. His face darkened noticeably.
After a while, Qian Xiaohao stood up, his teeth gritted as he spoke in a low tone, "We've been played by that god's chosen!"
"Sir Qian, what exactly happened?" An NPC steps forward, interrogating.
"Look at this spot!" Qian Xiaohao pointed at a hollow in the center of the bronze throne, "There was something here, but that guy swiped it!"
Now Qian Xiaohao understood why the high-profile figures were all trying to seize the bronze throne - it wasn't for the throne itself, but for the treasure buried inside.
Anyhow, Qian Xiaohao suffered a major loss this time. Once leading over a dozen people, only three now survived, including his two most loyal followers who died here. All for nothing, without obtaining any rewards.
