"What are the names of the men you have planted in the union, and where are they?" Grandin asked again.

Now the largest lesion has been removed, leaving only a few minor problems.

"In ...... In the ......"

The 'Hermit' suddenly stuttered as he spoke, and his face instantly contorted with pain. Huge amounts of blood poured out of the eyes, nose, mouth, and even ears at the same time.

Then he tilted his head and said nothing.

Grandin turned his head back to Rowena again.

Rowena's expression sneered:

"That's why I'm telling you to hurry."

Grandin let out a long breath, at least he figured out what he wanted to know most.

He walked over to the corpse and took out the lead box, the 'Flesh Badge' in the box trembled, like a high-powered vacuum cleaner, and small dots of light began to precipitate from the 'Hermit's body, and were immediately sucked into the lead box.

And this speed is getting faster and faster, and the grains of light gradually connect into wisps of light, which are swallowed up by the 'Flesh Badge'.

In the meantime, Grandin's ears erupted again, a voice full of distortion and madness.

After eating a whole serving of the extraordinary properties of the 'Hermit', the 'Flesh Badge' came with a satisfied thought, and once again retracted into the lead box and did not move.

It's like eating enough and digesting food.

Badges seem to be smarter? I don't know what will become of it in the end, or what new abilities will I gain after eating this trait......

Grandin put the lead box away in a trance.

While inspecting the 'Hermit's belongings', he found the pendant again. When he got close enough, the layers of phantom sounds in the pendant began to affect him again.

Grandin then retrieved a bottle from the storehouse, and after setting up a spiritual blockade, threw the pendant into it. He then proceeded to dismantle the ritual magic that had been placed throughout the warehouse, and finally walked around the warehouse to make sure he had left no traces. M..coM

Rowena came over at this moment, having just tied the body of the 'hermit' to a stone and sunk it into the sea:

"The battle for the apple orchard should be over, do you want to take a look?"

Because the apple orchard was on the outskirts of Beckland, neither side had any scruples when it came to fighting. When you can use firearms, the intensity of the battle is very high, so it ends quickly.

By the time Rowena pursued the Hermit, the battle in the apple orchard had come to an end. The gangsters were the first to surrender, while the fanatics still occupied some of the rooms and resisted stubbornly.

But she also brought two 'assassins' with her during this operation, and that complex environment was the most suitable for 'assassins' to strike. In this kind of battle, they have no reason to lose.

"No, I have to go back and catch up on sleep, and I have to wake up early tomorrow." Grandin looked at his pocket watch, and after a busy time, it was half past two in the morning.

During this time, horse-drawn carriages did not exist in the docklands......

If he wanted to go home, he had to cross the pier, enter the East End, and wait on the platform for the hourly public carriage. Moreover, this kind of carriage will only move in one area, so when he reaches the North District, he has to repeat the above actions and wait for a North District railroad.

This goes round and round, and I'm afraid he will have to go out again as soon as he gets home.

"Did you leave a mark for someone from your sect to drive a wagon to pick you up?" Knowing that there was little hope, Grandin asked.

"Dear Grandin, do you think I'm the kind of big guy who travels with a carriage to pick me up?" Rowena smiled, "But there are some vehicles in the apple orchard. ”

Want to go to the apple orchard - >>

[Reading updates load slowly, there are ads, chapters are incomplete, please exit Reading and read!] 】

, the distance is not short.

"I'm looking for a hotel in the East End...... Wait, I'd better go to the apple orchard and have a look. ”

Grandin was about to refuse, but the 'Destiny Charm' in his pocket was slightly hot, which made him change his mind. He simply pulled out the 'Goddess's Gaze' and carefully drank a third of the potion as many as his fingernails.

Tonight, he wasn't ready to sleep.

On the way to the orchard outside Beckland, they can only rely on the moonlight to grope their way forward. The concrete pavement was also quickly replaced by a gravel road, and the smell of horse manure was heard from the roadside from time to time.

Thankfully, it hasn't rained these days, otherwise the road would have been even more difficult.

Not in a hurry, it took them more than an hour to see the light coming from the apple orchard.

Half of the fruit in the orchard has been picked, and the other half is half green and half red and not yet fully ripe. Grandin was so thirsty that he couldn't care about it so much, so he took one off and put it in his mouth. The apple was slightly sour, but the aroma of the fruit cheered him up again.

A flat dirt road runs from the orchard to the small three-story building at the end. Before entering the building, he changed his face with a 'Harlequin Mask'.

He could trust Rowena to a limited extent, but he didn't want to expose himself to everyone's eyes.

But this time Grandin was worried in vain, and when they walked into the small building, everyone bowed their heads respectfully, and no one dared to look up.

After the two of them passed, they went about their business.

"It will take about a few days to check and count the materials, you can give me a bearer account, and when the statistics are over, I will transfer the corresponding gold pounds to your card."

Rowena smiled as she spoke, and it seemed that she had made a lot of money this time.

"Did you find any extraordinary materials or magical items?" Grandin saw that some of the walls were still stained with blood that hadn't been cleaned up.

Hearing this, Rowena rolled her eyes, "If these things were really hidden, we wouldn't have been able to take this place so easily." ”

She thought for a moment and then continued:

"The 'Hermit' opened a secret room when he fled, but there was nothing in it."

Grandin's heart moved when he heard this, "Please take me to see it." ”

The chamber is in the stables.

After lifting the straw and driving the horses away, the wooden door to the chamber appeared before them.

Grandin and Rowena descended the gloomy staircase and soon reached the Chamber of Secrets. There is also an open secret door to the right of it, from which the 'Hermit' escaped.

"Look, there's nothing, it's just an escape." Rowena said, holding a kerosene lamp.

"Did you catch someone to ask?" Grandin took advantage of the flickering fire of the kerosene lamp to check the layout of the chamber.

"The fanatics didn't give us that chance, and the thugs didn't know anything." Rowena replied dryly.

Grandin didn't find any clues, it was a very ordinary small prayer room, and by the way, there was a secret passage.

Maybe we should go to the other side of the tunnel. It's empty and there's nothing...... There is nothing, and there is nothing in the shrine!

The cave shrine exudes an inexplicable sense of weirdness.

His scalp tightened, and his heart pounded twice. If it weren't for the lack of spiritual reaction, he would have been thinking about how to run away right now.
