Chapter 252: Midnight!

"Ayton!"

"You're finally back!"

"Is it going well?"

With a small bag of green pearls, Ayton returned to the place where he had set out - Innalis, a fortress city that could be brought into it for a long time as long as there was enough money - in the hotel in the city's civilian quarters, Ayton's companions were waiting for his return.

"Of course it works!"

"It's just a tiny fire crab!"

"Look what I'm bringing back!"

After Ron's enlightenment, Ayton was out of his confusion, and he shook the small cloth bag in his hand, and immediately there was a rustle of small round particles in it—Ayton's companion Serek the thief immediately heard that it was a pearl—after all, the Lake of Steam was rich in pearls, especially the green pearls of Aenrohn and the red pearls of Minta.

And Ayton's mission this time is none other than the Ahnroen Volcano.

"That's good!"

"We just took a task at midnight, and we can go to see the employer together and find out the situation!"

Standing up from the wooden table, Serek gulped down the glass of wine, and then he pulled Ayton towards the back of the hotel - a few people immediately got up in a hurry, cautiously following behind them - after all, the rustle that Ayton had just shaken the bag was definitely not something that a few pearls could make, and the outlaws felt that it was worth the vote.

Yes, Serek didn't give them that chance - when they walked into the trail to snatch the pearls, they found that the two who had been there a few seconds ago had disappeared without a trace.

However, the two of them did not go far, but were in a small two-story building at the end of the path, where another member of the adventure party was sitting in front of a quiet girl at midnight, listening to each other's words.

"That's the case, Midnight!"

"Whenever I fall asleep, I sense my hostess!"

"She's been recounting a place name in my head, Kilgrave Castle!"

"And I can feel that her life is on the line!"

The quiet maiden, named Caitland, spoke hastily into midnight, with an anxious look on her face—it was evident from the dark circles under her eyes that she had not had a good rest during this time.

"Don't be nervous, do you know where Kilgrave Castle is?"

"Or point around this map!"

Midnight was undoubtedly much calmer than Caitland's anxiety, she comforted Caitland, hoping for more information—in fact, in Midnight's mind, she was inclined to rescue Caitland's so-called mistress—and she pulled out a map of the continent of Feren from her bosom and spread it out on the table between herself and Caitland.

"I don't know exactly where this fortress is!"

"But I have a sense! It's in this direction!"

"My master is calling me!"

Instead of looking at the map, Caitland closed her eyes, and after a moment, the girl suddenly stretched out her right arm towards one, and her index finger pointed firmly in one direction!

"This is the direction! The master is calling me!"

Seeing the girl's behavior, Ayton, who was standing behind Midnight, couldn't help frowning—Ayton, who was a priest of Chenny, knew more about it than his other two companions—he quietly patted Midnight on the shoulder, and then walked out the door—Serek immediately sat down after Midnight left, and talked to Caitland familiarly.

Outside the door, Midnight communicated with Ayton about Caitland's mission - the three of them had been tacitly understanding for a long time, and just a light touch, Midnight knew that Ayton had an opinion to express - and Ayton did not hesitate, and as soon as he walked out of the door, he lowered his voice and spoke.

"Midnight, this task is quite tricky!"

"To be able to make such a call, the mistress of Caitland can't be an ordinary person, but more likely a god or a demon lord!"

"To be able to imprison a god or a demon lord, how powerful that captive must be!"

"It's definitely not something we can handle!"

Faced with Ayton's reason, Midnight has its own thoughts.

"It is! But my instinct tells me!"

"I have to go!"

Midnight has a natural instinct to predict what is best for her - such an instinct is known to both Ayton and Seric - so in the face of Midnight's instinctive opinion, Ayton immediately thought carefully - after all, Midnight's instinctive prediction has never gone wrong, and has always brought benefits to the three-person adventure team

"Your instinct is innate, it's a talent, a talent for the future direction of the world!"

"Ayton, I guess midnight is right!"

I don't know when, Serek has already walked out of the room, facing the thinking Ayton, Serek said his request - two people have already agreed, and Ayton finally agreed to Midnight's idea after thinking about it.

So Midnight sat down in front of the quiet girl again--only in this short time, the eyes of the quiet girl Caitland's eyes were already in a trance, she kept looking in the direction that Fang Cai's index finger had pointed, and her face was full of anxiety-and when she sat down at midnight, Caitland's eyes were immediately full of hope again.

"Caitland, we agreed to the offer!"

Smiling, Midnight told each other the results of their discussion, which brought a smile on the girl's face—she immediately stood up and asked, apparently impatient.

"Thank you, when are we leaving?"

"We don't know exactly how far it will be – so we'll need to spend a day or two packing for our departure!"

"We'll meet here then!"

Of course, the three-person adventure party would not set off unprepared—perhaps the girl did not know the dangers of the journey, but the three-person adventure party knew—and after a rough estimate at midnight, it would take the three of them two days to prepare the horses, weapons, equipment, and items to be used during the journey, so they told Caitland the approximate time.

"It takes so long?"

The girl's brow furrowed slightly, and then quickly relaxed—she seemed to have received some message.

"Since we have gathered here, then I will wait here!"

"But how much supplies do you need, maybe I can prepare some for you too!"

"Since you said so, please help us prepare these supplies, even if it is our advance payment!"

Since the employer said so, Midnight no longer asked for additional preparations—she told the girl about some of the types of supplies, and the girl prepared them—and from the heart, Midnight had a strong identification with the girl, like her own companion, even closer—this was an unprecedented situation!

But Midnight doesn't reject this feeling, as if it should be like this - and rightfully so!
