Chapter 389: Silencing People
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
This was probably the first time Hahn agreed to something so readily. Before Johnathan finished packing his luggage, his team increased by four people. Johnathan tried to object Hahn’s arrangement, but to no avail. He shook his head and brought the four new members towards the Scar of Death.
The advance party consisted of 12 people. Apart from Lin Li’s team and Johnathan, there were seven other Adventurers, and Lin Li knew four of them…
“Hehe, Mr. Bandit, what a coincidence…” Lin Li greeted Reggie the moment they left the campsite.
“A-ah, yes…” Reggie gasped in shock, and nearly slipped and fell onto the ground. When he finally calmed down, his was still trembling like a mouse that met a cat…
“Mr. Bandit, why are you shaking so much? Are you feeling unwell?”
“No… It’s nothing…” Reggie replied. He nearly cursed all the 18 generations of Hahn’s ancestors. F*ck that Hahn! Why didn’t he warn me that the advance party has such a boss? If I’d known, I wouldn’t have joined this darn team. How’s this different from trapping a cat and a mouse together in the same cage?
“I didn’t expect it to be so coincidental…” To be honest, Lin Li was actually quite surprised to meet Reggie here. He’d thought that the advance party was just an excuse for Hahn to get rid of people he didn’t want. Lin Li had not expected to see Reggie and his friends being a part of it. Could it be that the advance party had a very crucial role to play?
“Hehe, I’m just here to check things out…” The man was the first heir of the Malfa Family, the biological brother of Harvey, who was seated opposite Emendas. Harvey’s brother was more accomplished than him; his ability was something even Lin Li could not fathom. Not only that, the top Adventurer of Aminya, Emendas, also did not have the guts to look that man in the eye as he sat in front of him.
“How is it? I presume there were no accidents thus far?”
“Rest assured, Sir Hutton, everything is going according to the plan,” Emendas said politely; his gaze was filled with respect. “We have just sent an advance party there as well. If there is no accident, they should arrive at the destination before evening.”
“How is the ability of this advance party?”
“They are all at most level-15, and not really strong in ability. But, in order to ensure that they reach the destination safely, I’ve asked Master Adelo to tag along with them.”
“Adelo went too?”
“Yes, I had Master Adelo disguise himself as a level-10 Magic Shooter.”
“Very good, I always trusted Adelo. But, Emendas, I don’t want many people to know about the secret at the Scar of Death.”
“Rest assured, Sir Hutton. Adelo promised that he will have everyone in the advance party protect the secret eternally.”
“Alright.”
When he heard that, Jason drew a deep breath. He knew what it meant when they said to protect the secret eternally. These people… these people want to silence all of them!
Jason was not a righteous man. He had seen many cases of silencing people, but they all did not matter as long as he was not the victim. Usually, Jason tried his best not to interfere in situations that did not concern him. But, not this time. How could they even plan to kill Mage Felic?
He couldn’t let it be. Otherwise, if the matter were to be discovered by Mage Felic, he might think that Jason was one of the masterminds. Mage Felic was not a reasonable man. If that mage was determined to seek revenge, the Malfa Family and himself would be doomed. It was not worth it for him to take such a risk in order to earn those 10,000 gold coins.
But, how could he inform him?
If Adelo wasn’t there, it would be an easy job. He could just stop them before they reached the Scar of Death.
