Vivian, who returned to the Crescent, heard that Apton had not returned, and her hair stood on end.

She ignored Schliemann's obstruction and insisted on going back to look for it.

"What if he just went somewhere else for a stroll? He might still be waiting by the city wall now!"

Schliemann was also very upset. In the agreement reached with Bishop Scott to establish a supply point, Apton's caravan played an important role.

Although his decision was a bit preemptive, he believed that Apton, who wanted to restore the dynasty, would not give up such a good opportunity to make money.

"Go and go by yourself. I have to wait here for Hilpeter to come back. I'm not like you. Apart from your king, even if the world is destroyed, it won't be a big deal."

Vivian snorted, turned around and walked into the deep forest.

But within half an hour, she came back from the other direction, looking anxious.

Schliemann, who was sitting on a rock reading a book, looked up at Vivian and knew that this person had gotten lost and then came back.

Seeing an angry Vivian walking past him, Schliemann sighed and said, "If you get lost again, you may not be able to get back."

Vivian turned a deaf ear and walked towards Antler City with a stubbornness that even a few cows couldn't pull back.

But when she was about to enter the tall bushes, she stopped, turned around angrily, and strode towards Schliemann.

"If Ampton encounters any danger, your voyage will be over!"

Schliemann closed the book and hugged his shoulders.

"Why? The clues to what I'm looking for are all in my head."

Vivian gritted her teeth and her face turned red from holding back.

"If something happens to Ampton, I want you to be buried with him!"

"You can't beat me."

Vivian, who had stopped reciting the curse, sat down on the stone next to her and sighed sadly.

"Why would Wang choose to cooperate with a guy like you who doesn't follow the spirit of contract..."

"Just wait a minute! Your king and I have an agreement beforehand. Any decision during the exploration process will be made by me.

I asked him to put the sword away, but he refused, okay, forget it if he doesn't want to, then just wait outside, but he didn't do it even if he waited honestly!

All of us are responsible for our own actions, even the king is no exception. "

Vivian glared at Schliemann, as if the outburst of anger were her words of defense.

Connie emerged from the tall shrubs and said hello to the crew member on guard. The crew member pointed in the direction of Schliemann, and then Connie ran over excitedly.

He handed a gray-white stone to Schliemann, who weighed it with a look of surprise.

"It's very pure! Where did it come from?"

"The northern foot of Lujiao Mountain is just two hills away from here. Do you want to drive the flying ship over?"

"Farewell for now, we still have to wait here for Hill Peter to come back."

Feeling a surge of anger, Schliemann added the names of Ampton and Walter to the names of those waiting.

"How long will it take to refine the gas tanks we have now?"

"It will be slower the first time. You need to build a soaking pool and a volatilization collector first..."

Connie counted one item at a time, and finally stretched out a finger.

"One week, fill it all up. If you only prepare what you need to return home, then six days will be enough."

"Okay, hurry up and make a list of the things you need to buy to Hilpeter, and then..."

Before Schliemann could finish, he suddenly remembered that Hilpeter was not there.

"I go!"

He looked at Vivian who volunteered and sighed deeply.

"You can't even get out of this forest..."

Connie smiled and said, "I'll go by myself!"

"No, you rest! How long have you been without sleep?

Oops... I'll go with it... You don't have Hisoka's silver coins, so if you use Andadir's currency, you'll be arrested immediately..."

As Schliemann spoke, he slowly tied the sword belt around his waist and put the snacks spread out on the rocks into his pockets one by one.

In Antler City, Ram wore a torn hood and sat on a box at the end of a muddy alley, looking indifferent.

The executioner Hans's family all died, not even the seven or eight-year-old child survived.

Upton's sword was wrapped in cloth and carried on his back. This was the biggest concession he could make.

Walter stood at the entrance of the alley, with his hands behind his hands, like a wall separating Upton and the others from the world.

"Your sister is really a witch..."

Faced with Apton's words, Ram sighed helplessly with his eyes wandering.

"how can that be possible……"

"The child was dragged away by the evil spirit in the well, his wife was killed by the incubus in his sleep, Hans was controlled by a strange force, and hung himself while shouting for help...

This would be hard to explain if it weren't for a witch. "

"She's definitely not a witch, that's for sure.

Will her next target be Bishop Scott or Princess Bill...

We need to split up and stop my sister before she flies into the flames. It's still too late. "

"Split up? I've never seen your sister."

Ram raised his hand and pointed at Walter at the alley, his expression extremely cold.

"He has seen it. Let him keep an eye on it near Hector's Temple. You and I will go to the Princess's Castle with you."

Ampton laughed dryly. Ram's tone was not pleading or negotiating at all, it was more like an order from a superior to a subordinate.

He was too lazy to talk nonsense to Ram and turned around to leave.

"You have a reason why you have to help me."

Ram's words aroused Apton's desire to win, and he narrowed his eyes and turned around.

"Oh? Tell me about it?"

"You parked the flying ship in the mountains, presumably so that no one would notice it?

If you leave, I will tell the princess where you are stopping. "

Ampton chuckled, walked closer to Ram, stepped on the box with one foot, and put his face close to Ram's eyes.

Ram didn't move, still expressionless.

"Although I can't kill everyone, he can."

As Apton said, he pointed his thumb back at Walter at the entrance of the alley. However, Ram did not react as Apton expected, and he remained expressionless.

"That is useless. I have already told Uncle House the location of the flying ship, and I also said that if I don't go to him in the next few days, I will ask him to report the location of the flying ship to the princess."

Apton narrowed his eyes. This time he really had murderous intentions. Ram was not incapable of killing him. As long as the threat existed, he could kill anyone, including House.

As if he had seen through Apton, Ram spoke again, but he remained expressionless.

"It's useless. The reason why you parked the ship in the mountains is because you don't want to conflict with our Kingdom of Hisoka.

House is a soldier who belongs to the princess. Even if he is missing, let alone his death, he will quickly attract attention. By then, it will be dangerous for you strangers to even wander around Antler City.

Do you think the princess will let you do what you want? "

Ampton was held there, motionless. He looked at Ram in front of him. He was completely different from the noisy kid who was carried back by Walter yesterday.
