Chapter 105 Goal, set off!

As the last ray of sunset dissipates from the sea level.

The world is once again shrouded in darkness.

Lisanna, who found the "key" in the inn, walked out without looking sideways. When she arrived at the door, she turned around and told the manager in the chamber of commerce that she and the president would come back later tonight.

But his eyes floated upwards, looking at the figure standing on the balcony on the second floor of the hotel on the left.

The lights were not on in the house, but they were barely distinguished by the light from the warehouse in the inn. Therefore, the two guards behind him just glanced at them and thought they were residents and didn't care much.

Herody ~

As the horses neighed, the wheels began to roll, and they took the carriage away, leaving only a little smoke and dust floating.

At the edge of the balcony, Loberin held the note in his hand. There was not much content on it, just a short sentence: Someone snatched the scorching box, and the president needed help.

This is the note that Lisana used the excuse of the key to delay time after coming back, and used the note that the gravel parasites quietly left in the room. When passing by the hotel, he reminded Loberin that he got it after Lisana left.

"Even enemies you need assistance...it seems that there are quite a few contenders this time."

Holding the note into his hand, Loberin jumped down from the balcony. The scorching box was something he had to get. Now that he finally saw hope, he naturally would not allow anyone to penetrate and destroy it at this critical moment.

It was only when he walked to the door that the sound from outside stopped, retreated behind the door, and observed the situation outside by angle.

Several men in black robes stopped the manager of the Shuojin Chamber of Commerce outside the inn. When they heard the sound coming, they seemed to be asking Zhu Jue and Lisanna where they were going.

"Dream Eater?"

The other party's outfit made Lobelin immediately think of the people he killed in Popeye's Tavern today. Through mental sensing, he quickly determined this.

How come there are two groups of people?

After asking about the scorching box, Loberin cleaned up these cultists and competitors. He thought it would be less trouble, but he didn't expect that another team of dream eaters appeared.

If it were the case, Loberin might have chosen to take action again, but now is obviously not a good time to take action, not to mention that the opponent's strength is unknown. If the opponent's fight is evenly matched, problems will be easily encountered on the Scarlet Box.

But it seems inappropriate to leave like this.

After staying behind the door for a while, eavesdropping on the outside, Loberin unexpectedly discovered that the dream eater team was performing as if they had no idea what was going on today.

Without asking about the dream eaters who came to Shuojin Chamber of Commerce before them, they did not show obvious hostility, and even put themselves in the identity of an ordinary merchant during their conversation.

This is a bit strange.

You should know that when Zhu Jue chatted with Lobelin, he mentioned that a dream eater came to his door to grab the scorching box and was killed by them this morning. In this matter, Lobelin did not think that Zhu Jue would deceive himself because it was meaningless.

Then there is only one possibility left. These dream eaters and they are not killed by the same group. They may already know that the dream eaters on the harbor of Dilas are dead, but they don’t know who did it at the time, and there is no way to check it in a short time. There is another possibility that these people have not met with the original group of people and have their own affairs. However, these two routes will eventually be intertwined, that is, they can only focus on the most critical scorching box first.

Since that is the case, there may be opportunities to make use of this!

No longer rushing to the villa of Count Alterland, Bellorin tidied up his clothes and took the initiative to walk out the door.

The people outside the door naturally noticed Bellorin's existence at the first time, but as the latter thought, the group of dream eaters had no idea who he was, but just looked at the wooden mask on his face in surprise, which completely relieved Bellorin, who was originally secretly alert.

"Hey, your vice president said that you would give something to the Earl of Ultraland. He had said before that I would go and see it too. Where are the people now?"

Bellolin didn't go to see the group of dream eaters, and asked the manager of the Shuojin Chamber of Commerce on his own.

Lisanna and Zhu Jue left, but when they came back, Zhu Jue was not here, but there were two more armed guards, plus the note just now,

As expected, before the manager could answer anything, the dream eater noticed his problem first.

"You just said that the vice president of the Shuojin Chamber of Commerce was going to give something to the Earl of Ultraland?"

The man in black turned his gaze to Bellorin. He had been here at Dilas Harbor, so he naturally would not know about the character like the Earl of Ultraland.

The vice president of the Shuojin Chamber of Commerce gave something to the Earl of Ultraland?

This behavior similar to flattery was impossible in his opinion without the instructing of the President of the Shujin Chamber of Commerce. In other words, the President of the Shujin Chamber of Commerce is now pleasing the Earl of Ultraland, which undoubtedly aroused his alertness. He soon thought about the deterioration of their relationship with the Shujin Chamber of Commerce during this period.

The forces that turn to the local dream world can not only protect the interests of the Shujin Chamber of Commerce in the dream world, but also will not violate the alliance with the Dream Eater. At least in the event of not completely turning to the Dream Eater, the Dream Eater will not completely break up with him.

Therefore, in a sense, the behavior of the Shuojin Chamber of Commerce can even be regarded as finding a new path in the now precarious alliance between the two sides.

"Hmph...it's so calculating!"

Thinking about the significance hidden behind the Shuojin Chamber of Commerce, even the leader of the Dream Eater side couldn't help but secretly admire the decisive and accurate decision-making of the new president.

Tsk tsk tsk tsk ~

This brain-stimulating ability is really not ordinary. Anyway, when Lobelin heard this, he thought his plan had been exposed, so he almost took action. As a result, the man in front of him turned around and left with the team, probably heading straight to the Duke of Alteran's manor, preparing to come to the back of the oriole.

Loberin was naturally happy to see this result, and even the quicksand face under the mask was a little churned. Following these people from afar, these dream eaters would help him find his own goal.

On the other side, Altland Manor.

The content of the cocktail party in the fantasy dream is no different from what Zhu Jue imagines. It is still the same old-fashioned cups and people in bright and beautiful clothes shuttle between the banquets, posing a hypocritical face that seems to be a smile, and engage in many communications, either light or dark.

As for Zhu Jue, a guy who was out of place, for three hours, he just wandered around the cocktail party, either leaning against the fountain or lying half-lying in the corridor around the periphery, and his bottles were rotated, and he was almost unconscious.

But Zhu Jue's current physical condition really doesn't allow him to feel dizzy. The alcohol in his stomach will be absorbed completely in no time.

So Zhu Jue became a regular visitor to the toilet...

When he came out of the toilet for the fifth time, Zhu Jue finally saw the manor housekeeper who he had been waiting for at the end of the party table.

"Mr. President, the reception has ended. The Earl is waiting for you at the door, and Miss Lisana is also here."

Originally, Lisanna was not allowed to follow, but she took the initiative to tell Earl of Ultraland that the location of the scorching box had special rules, and Zhu Jue, as the new president, had not yet fully mastered it, and it was very likely that the built-in mechanism in the collection was triggered, so it was best to let her go.

Ultraland did not refuse Lisanna's proposal. He did not think that this woman could play any tricks under his nose. His urgent expectation for the Scarlet Box made him subconsciously begin to ignore some less important details.

"I understand...that's the treasure left to me by my ancestors, but now it's going to be delivered to someone else's hands. This is really... hiccup~"

Zhu Jue rubbed his stomach and burped. He was not drunk, but his steps were still swaying. Finally, he even had to lean against the butler and walked forward, muttering and complaining non-stop until the doorstep.

Not only did the housekeeper not stop this, but there was a smile on his face. The same expression also appeared on the Earl of Ultraland's face, but the latter had a little more sarcastic sarcasm.

"Mr. President has been drinking all afternoon, and he was complaining about you snatching his treasure on the way."

The housekeeper bowed and stood beside the carriage to report his experience in the afternoon. In fact, he has been paying attention to Zhu Jue's every move after the transaction was concluded. Whether the transaction he agreed to under his own oppression was really surrender or was prepared, the clues may be seen from his behavior at the cocktail party.

The master had no time to do things, so he, the housekeeper, had to do it for him, and Zhu Jue's final behavior undoubtedly dispelled their final suspicion.

"A young man is a young man, and he can't hide anything he wants... Hehe, it's a good thing, don't care about him."

Ultraland waved his hand casually, glanced at the young man who was holding Lisana's shoulder and retching on the side of the road, and said in a deep voice.
