Chapter 812 Foliage Manor
“Don’t trust Hector completely! Or rather, don’t trust Hector!” Charles looked at Gerald with a rare expression on his face. His tone was extremely serious.
“Huh?” Gerald looked at Charles in surprise and said, “What do you mean?”
“These days, I have been secretly observing Hector. He really hates the Four Ancient Families to the bone.”
Charles said, “But… He should have something else hidden from us. He has been secretly planning something.”
Gerald frowned. After coming here, he spent most of his time outside. He did not have that much time at home.
He had never completely believed in Hector. However, he never observed Hector carefully as Charles did.
Of course, it was harder for him to observe someone. Charles was usually silent. He never changed his expression even if he found something.
“Okay, I understand.” Gerald nodded and said, “Well, you have to be a little more careful recently. I met that silver-haired woman today. She recognized me and her brother wanted Carolyn and Valery.”
When Charles heard this, killing intent flashed in his eyes. “You didn’t do anything?”
“Yes.” Gerald nodded and said, “But… I failed.”
“That silver-haired woman is a Flame Decayer?” Charles asked subconsciously.
“No!” Gerald shook his head and said. “But we… underestimated the technology of this world. In fact, we don’t know much about the technology of this world. Her cloak suddenly became a pair of iron wings. I missed and then, she flew away.
“I understand!” Charles nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll leave first.”
“Wait a minute! Give me your golorb card.” Gerald said.
After that, he gave Charles 50 million golorbs and said, “Take this money to use.”
Charles did not say anything. He knew that Gerald’s income for a mission was high.
Then, he bid farewell to Gerald, dragged the suitcase, and left in the elevator.
Gerald looked at Jacob, who was still immersed in the game world, and was speechless. Gerald didn’t call Jacob back.
Jacob was really bored at home. It was good for him to have a game to pass the time. Of course, they would teli Jacob everything. Although Jacob wasn’t good at fighting, he was important in making a plan.
Gerald went next door. Just as he entered, he heard a sound.
In the room next door, on a square table, four people were sitting together… playing cards.
Gerald was speechless. He ran over to take a look. It was really cards, but the cards were different from cards on Earth in terms of materials.
“Where did you get the cards?” Gerald asked speechlessly.
Triston coughed and said, “I went out for a walk with Jacob today. Then… I saw a place that produces such kinds of card-like things, so I asked the shop owner to help produce cards. The technology in this world is amazing. After I gave them the blueprint, the cards were made soon.”
“Have you accepted the mission?” Valery raised his head and asked.
“Yes.” Gerald nodded and said, “But everyone might have to keep a low profile recently. It’s better to stay at home and not go out!”
“Something happened?” Valery raised her eyes and asked
Gerald briefly explained the matter to Anabel. After hearing it, Carolyn frowned and said, “Doesn’t that mean that if Anabel told the Ingram family, the Four Ancient Families might find out that we came from Earth?”
