After receiving the Starlight Elixir, Callie joyfully exclaimed, "I'm so glad I've decided to team up with you, Severin. It feels oh-so-easy to get all sorts of valuable treasures when I'm with you."
She had gained all sorts of valuable treasures after teaming up with Severin twice, putting her in an immensely good mood.
Last time, she obtained a superior-quality spiritual treasure and a piece of Lumigold. This time, she got a rare Starlight Elixir. Having that meant Callie would have no worries in refining pills until she broke through to level five paragon.
Moreover, the Starlight Elixir was also a sacred healing medicine. Any paragon, no matter how severe their injuries and as long as they still had a breath, could repair their injuries and foundations. Such spiritual treasures, if placed outside, would undoubtedly attract numerous envious eyes, leading to fierce battles.
Spencer was also feeling very upbeat. He initially thought that with his meager strength, he would not be able to get anything. Yet, he got a top-seventh-grade alchemical pill — Heavenspirit Pill! It could not have come at a better time for him.
Although Spencer felt some envy for the token and booklet—speculating that those items were either precious treasures or techniques—he knew very well that he should not harbor those kinds of feelings.
After all, it was Severin who saved him from Leigh. Even though Spencer only gave him the map in return for saving his life, in the end, he discovered that it was better to team up with Spencer than to fight alone.
Fighting alone might bring more rewards, but the risks were also higher. A slight mistake could cost one's life on the spot. Therefore, Spencer had no complaints about Severin taking the lion share of the rewards.
Not to mention, Spencer was still injured and needed Severin's protection to avoid being pursued by evil practitioners. With that thought in mind, Spencer smiled at Severin and said flatteringly, "Haha, you're absolutely right, Callie. After teaming up with Severin, it feels like one can pick up treasures just by taking a stroll."
