SSS+ Constellation Chat Group

Chapter 55: Greedy



If the heart of the tree had so many functions if used in other ways, it must be of great interest to the constellations which meant it could be exchanged for very powerful skills.

Even using it alone was probably much better.

The fact that it could survive those golden flames showed its incredible value. It had probably been a long time since the tree couldn't regenerate anymore, yet people thought it was still regenerating because of its intact and screaming heart.

Several people began to look at each other, as if discussing whether they should take the heart.

The problem was that it seemed ownerless because it was lying on top of that pile of ashes.

Of course, thinking it was ownerless was a very presumptuous move considering that the heart's appearance was due to the golden flames which naturally appeared because someone let it go.

They might not have a problem stealing from a weak person. However, the owner of the golden flame was obviously very strong. Most people were worried that if they tried to steal something from him, the golden flames would burn them.

Shua! Shua! Shua!

To everyone's surprise, there were actually several people jumping towards the heart. There were even more than ten of them, coming from various directions.

If there was one thing they had in common, it was that they had the expressions of petty people, similar to selfish gangsters or bullies at school.

It was only because they were from wealthy families that they had good looks.

However, their ambition and greed were obvious as they got closer to the heart.

Oliver knitted his brows at the sight.

His mind was quite sensitive now, so their actions really upset him.

Shua!

He finally decided to jump into the air while enveloping his body with his golden flames, which allowed him to glide through the air like he was flying.

When he appeared, everyone widened their eyes, looking at him intensely to see his figure only to find that he could not be seen at all.

The flames enveloping his body were so dense that only the lines and structure of his body were visible.

'Looks familiar!' However, when Isabel saw him, she suddenly felt a heightened sense of familiarity towards him but she wasn't sure who he was.

Oliver would probably be surprised if he knew Isabel felt familiar to him even though his body was enveloped in flames.

This meant that she had been observing his figure with great care.

Different reactions were shown by the people who tried to seize the heart of the tree.

They looked terrified, especially when they felt the extreme heat of the golden flames.

"Who are you?" asked one of them, a young man with a thin body and curly hair but an expression that clearly indicated that he was the type who liked to bully the weak and feared the strong.

Oliver of course didn't answer, continuing forward until he came to a pile of ashes that he could step on.

His focus was only on the heart.

The moment he was nearby, the tiny roots that had sprouted from the heart were reduced to ashes, making the scream echo again from the heart.

Since the heart seemed to be immune to the flames, so Oliver directly grabbed it, letting it drown in the golden flames in his hands.

However, since it came into contact with his physique, he was able to make the golden flames not hurt him anymore.

"You, give me that heart or I'll shoot you. My laser gun can definitely penetrate your body." Suddenly Oliver heard the previous man's voice.

Only, he said different things, much to his surprise.

Staring at him, Oliver actually found that he was pointing a laser gun at him.

His body was tense to the point of trembling yet his expression seemed extremely savage.

No one had expected him to be so bold.

"Oscar, what are you doing? Stop that!" The military captain on top of the wall shouted.

He seemed to be familiar with the young man as well.

Unfortunately, the young man named Oscar didn't seem to hear what the military captain said.

He was completely focused on the heart in Oliver's hand.

Not wanting to speak, worried about his voice being recognized, so Oliver remained silent, staring at the muzzle of the pistol.

He didn't consider the laser pistol a threat.

Maybe it could hurt him, but he thought he could avoid it before the laser shot hit his body.

As far as he could see up to this point, the speed of the laser shots was not that fast.

"Didn't you hear?" Oscar began to show anger because Oliver did not respond to his words.

At this point, he started to laugh softly.

However, before he could do anything, he suddenly saw Isabel's figure jump from the top of the wall towards Oscar.

BANG!

Her foot slammed into his back, making him fall instantly.

She then used her hands to push him down so that he could not stand up.

"Isabel, you!" Oscar apparently recognized Isabel as well.

He looked very surprised that she attacked him.

"Do you want to attack the person who saved me?" Isabel replied by scolding him.

Although she didn't know who the figure inside the golden flame was, but she wanted to thank him because if it wasn't for him attacking the hand of the tree monster, she might not have lived until now.

"Sir, thank you for your help earlier!" She said, looking in the direction where his eyes were even though she couldn't see the eyes of the figure in the fire.

This was a sight that made Oliver a little awkward. After all, he and Isabel were already so close and clearly liked each other. They just weren't official yet.

He pretended not to take it seriously, raising his hand without speaking.

It was just that he was still annoyed with Oscar.

This man needed to be taught a little lesson so that he wouldn't be arrogant later, saying that he was fine after pointing a gun at him.

His hand then shot towards the man's hand, surprising even Isabel.

The problem was that she felt the heat from Oliver's fire rising.

"Sir, you!" Isabel couldn't help but say something.

Two small fireballs then moved quickly to each of Oscar's hands, landing on his wrists before burning his hands to ashes at extreme speed.

Because it was too fast, Oscar didn't even feel the pain, only watching his hands disappear. Exclusive stories at m,v,l,e,mpyr

Shua!

Oliver jumped away right after that.
