"..."
The three of them gaped, their eyes filled with disbelief.
"Instructor? You?!"
Their minds buzzed, unable to believe it for a moment.
"Any problem?"
Chen Shu grinned and asked, "With my strength and qualifications, am I not more than capable of being an instructor?"
"An instructor is equivalent to a teacher at the training camp. You, a notorious bandit, are a teacher?"
A Liang rubbed his head and muttered, "The old man is confused..."
"This is called wise!"
Chen Shu shrugged and chuckled, "But don't worry, I'll teach you well!"
"..."
The three of them instinctively leaned back, creating distance.
They had high hopes for the training camp, but their enthusiasm seemed to have cooled down instantly...
"I can actually be a teacher..."
Chen Shu licked his lips and murmured to himself, "My life is almost complete."
"..."
The three of them were speechless, finding it a strange feeling to have a notorious bandit as their teacher.
After several rounds of drinks,
The three had reluctantly accepted reality and, at the same time, new ideas began to form in their minds.
Old Wang leaned in, slinging an arm around Chen Shu's shoulder, and said obsequiously,
"Uh, Brother Bandit..."
"..."
Chen Shu raised an eyebrow, a hint of wariness arising within him.
Old Wang chuckled and said, "Since you're the instructor, you'll definitely be in charge of resource allocation, right?"
Upon hearing this, the other two also reacted, their eyes immediately turning eager.
As absurd as it was, having the bandit as their instructor seemed to have its benefits...
"I should be, shouldn't I?"
Chen Shu's eyes also lit up, and he lowered his voice, saying,
"When the time comes, I'll try my best to allocate resources to you guys, and you give me a little something back... Wouldn't we all profit?"
"Absolutely correct!"
The three nodded in unison, suddenly feeling excited. This was much faster than hunting.
Chen Shu raised an eyebrow and asked, "How about a two-eight split?"
The three were slightly taken aback but instantly understood and said in unison,
"You greedy bastard!"
If it were anyone else, they might think Chen Shu only wanted two parts, but they knew him too well...
Chen Shu raised an eyebrow and said indifferently,
"I'm the instructor, and the key figure in this distribution. Is asking for eighty percent unreasonable?"
"Not unreasonable, how about ninety-ten?"
At this moment, a faint voice reached the ears of the four.
"Hmm?!"
The bodies of the four stiffened, shock evident in their eyes.
They hadn't even sensed anyone approaching...
Meanwhile, A Liang's face paled, and he instantly got up, intending to flee.
But a black light appeared, restraining him on the spot...
Chen Shu and the others turned to look, and saw a cold face.
"Dark King?!"
Chen Shu's body trembled, surprise flashing in his eyes.
"You guys are quite interesting..."
The Dark King scanned them all, a faint smile playing on its lips.
"Dark King, please, sit..."
Chen Shu showed no fear, maintaining his composure, and continued,
"Are you also looking to take a share?"
"???"
A Liang and the other two were speechless, truly impressed by Chen Shu's audacity.
"Me taking a share?"
The Dark King was also a little stunned. Couldn't he tell it was being sarcastic?
Chen Shu didn't pay it any mind, firmly believing in the principle:
Money makes the world go 'round...
He chuckled and said, "If we cooperate, it would definitely be a win-win situation. Are you interested?"
"No..."
The Dark King's gaze was peculiar as it said,
"Most of the training camp's resources are provided by the Master. What would I be splitting with you guys?"
To it, it was like giving away its own resources and then dividing them with a group of people. This was pure madness.
"Uh..."
Chen Shu was slightly taken aback, realizing the logic of this after a moment...
He said calmly, "Well, it's not entirely impossible..."
The Dark King glanced at him and then said, "Alright, I'm not here to bicker with you about this."
"Then what are you here for?"
"To prepare potions."
With that, it waved its right hand, and a black imprint appeared before them, from which all sorts of high-grade resources poured out.
Although it wasn't of the spatial element, it still had ways to store resources.
Before long, the high-grade resources piled up like a mountain.
"Are you being this wild on the street?"
Chen Shu quickly looked around, but saw that everything was already enveloped in a dark barrier, and the crowd remained completely oblivious.
The Dark King said indifferently, "The list of potions you need to prepare has already been sent to your phone by the officials. Once prepared, I'll come to collect them."
"No problem!"
Chen Shu nodded quickly and instructed the Spatial Rabbit to collect all the resources.
The Dark King then asked, "Also, what service fee do you want? Have you thought about it?"
"Hmm..."
Chen Shu stroked his chin and replied, "King Skills! I want fifteen Golden King Skills! And they must be elemental attack types!"
"..."
The Dark King was slightly stunned and nodded, "Alright! But I'll have to inquire back home. Only if there are enough will I give you a reply."
At market price, it would be around two to three hundred billion, but King Skills were too rare, and there might not be enough of them.
"Hmm, the old man should be able to afford it."
Chen Shu nodded and added, "If that's not enough, then exchange it for equivalent medicinal materials."
He was also making a concession, not insisting on fifteen King Skills.
"Fine."
The Dark King nodded and was about to transform into shadows and disappear,
But in that instant, its movements halted, and it looked at A Liang with a faint smile in its eyes.
It extended its right hand, and a black shadow coiled around the latter, saying,
"I think the Master wants to hear your distribution plan..."
With that, A Liang was forcefully taken away...
Watching this, Chen Shu and the other two immediately stood up, retreating several meters.
The Dark King glanced at them indifferently, then finally disappeared into the distance, simultaneously deactivating the shadow barrier.
The three returned to the bustling street. Though their faces were calm, their hearts were filled with lingering fear.
A Liang was simply taken away?
"Amen..."
The three offered a silent prayer for A Liang, hoping he would return unharmed...
For a moment, they felt a sense of relief that they were not descendants of the old man.
A Liang, in front of the Dark King, trying to divide resources like this would surely result in a scolding from the old man.
Old Wang swallowed and said, "Chen Shu, shouldn't we have stopped him just now?"
"Stopped him?"
Chen Shu glanced at him indifferently and said, "When the Dark King makes a move, it takes less than a second to kill you. What's the point of stopping him!"
"..."
The two were slightly stunned and then nodded. It made sense.
"Alright, it's okay that A Liang is gone."
Chen Shu calmly sat back down and said, "Let's continue our discussion about the distribution."
"???"
The expressions of the two froze, then they said, "It doesn't take a second to kill us, and you're still talking about it?"
"What's there to be afraid of?"
Chen Shu shrugged and said, "I can run."
He knew he couldn't defeat the Dark King, but he was confident in his ability to escape.
"..."
The two exchanged a look, as if signaling each other.
Instantly, they mounted their Thunderbirds and vanished into the sky in a flash, their movements fluid and efficient, clearly seasoned veterans.
