Chapter 121

For experienced players like Han Fei, the thrill of withdrawing gold is actually quite low.

After all, you get used to it once you've done it so many times.

But Lemuen different; this was her first time dealing with a search and raid.

Even something as low-quality as military explosives was something that would make her happy for a long time.

More importantly, it's unclear whether it was simply due to the high drop rate or Theresa was a rich woman back then, but the Babel really gave out gold whenever it was available.

In this Babel, after exploring three rooms, Lemuen found ten small gold items.

At this moment, one word was written all over Lemuen's face.

--happy.

The tomb raiding operation, which had been proceeding smoothly, only encountered a slight setback when they entered the fourth room.

As soon as everyone entered, they heard a very young girl's voice coming from inside the room.

"So, those chaotic noises just now were coming from you?"

"Who are you? Are you also from Theresis?"

Before anyone else could react to the voice, Han Fei immediately recognized the person and raised an eyebrow, saying:

"Closure? What are you doing hiding here?"

"Huh?"

Closure visibly startled and instinctively asked, "How do you know me?"

Upon hearing this, Han Fei thought to himself, "How could I not know you, you little swindler from Rhodes Island?"

"Of course I know you. So, what's the situation in the tower now?"

As Han Fei spoke, he took out the letter given to him by Lamat. "Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. Let's get to know each other again. I am Han Fei, a messenger. This is a letter in my own handwriting from Lady Lamat, the Queen of the Banshee Court, to Her Highness Theresa."

As soon as he finished speaking, Han Fei felt a gaze fall on him.

More precisely, it was the letter that landed in his hands.

A short while later, the gaze disappeared, and Closure's voice rang out.

"Theresis's men have broken in, and only some of the remaining operators are putting up a resistance," Closure said. "His Highness ordered me to hide, so I'm hiding here. I don't know the exact situation in the Tower right now."

Volume 1: Chapter 153 Clan

This result didn't surprise Han Fei much.

At that time, the main force of Babel was launching a fierce attack on Kazdel.

I just don't know if the ship's entire defense system has been deactivated.

"So what do you plan to do? Continue to hide?" Han Fei asked loudly.

"I'm just a support staff member. The situation isn't critical enough to require someone like me to step in, is it?"

Closure paused, her voice now more resolute, "If... if things really get that critical, I certainly won't keep hiding, but right now, it hasn't reached that point yet."

"That's true."

Han Fei said this, but in his heart he thought otherwise.

After the Shroud Reapers truly stormed into the Babel, the situation became very critical, especially since Hakibo was about to launch a major attack.

However, there's really no need to tell Closure about this.

This girl is indeed not very good at fighting.

I really like what an unknown Laterano guy said about Closure: "Low-risk Sarkaz."

Having made up his mind, Han Fei casually asked, "Oh, by the way, is Logos here, or in Kazdel? I also have a letter from his mother to him."

"He's in Kazdel, on a mission."

Closure was vague and did not explicitly state Logos's true purpose at that time.

Clearly, she has a good sense of confidentiality.

"Alright, then I'll go find Theresa first."

Han Fei said this, then said, "Just search around, we're done and then we're leaving."

"Okay, boss!"

Lemuen immediately ran over and started searching without saying a word.

"Hey, what are you doing?!"

Closure was stunned, thinking, "Isn't he a messenger? Why is he carrying something?"

Han Fei had no idea where Closure was, so he didn't have anything to look at. He simply looked up at the ceiling and said, "Don't be nervous, just rummage around. I won't take a single thing."

"Ha?"

Closure, of course, did not believe it.

But as she observed, she didn't actually see anyone taking anything.

There was no sign of anything being moved, let alone anything being taken; it looked like they just opened the box and glanced inside.

This reassured her considerably, and she asked, "What are you looking for?"

Judging from Lemuen's actions, Closure instinctively assumed that these guys were looking for something.

"It's nothing, just browsing."

Han Fei shrugged and said, "So, Xiao Le, are you done?"

"Alright, alright."

Lemuen came running over, grinning, and said, "It's really nice, boss, I'm starting to like this place."

"Hmph, you glutton."

Han Fei gently patted Lemuen's head.

He didn't mind that Lemuen such a glutton—this girl may eat a lot, but she's also a really good fighter.

Unlike some guys who are the fastest at serving food but invisible when it comes to fighting.

Moreover, the more Lemuen eats, the greater Han Fei's profits will be.

Lemuen's head was ruffled, and her smile widened. She chuckled, "Boss, if I run out of space later, could you please keep these glittering little things safe for me? You can return them to me when I have room in my backpack."

"OK."

Han Fei nodded slightly; he naturally wouldn't mind fulfilling such a small request.

Looking at the laughing Xiao Le and the doting look on Han Fei's face, Lemuen heart.

Leaving Laterano with Xiao Le, she was still somewhat uneasy, after all, the road ahead was long and full of unknowns.

This is a common problem after leaving a familiar environment.

But now, Lemuen is no longer uneasy; her sister and Han Fei get along very well, which is wonderful.

--She would be worried if Xiao Le and Han Fei didn't get along and didn't enjoy each other's company.

"If you're looking for His Highness, you might have to go upstairs. Closure reminded you. "Do you know where the medical area is?"

"I know."

Ines spoke first, her expression calm. "Miss Closure, I have been to the Babel."

"Oh, yes, I think I've seen you before. Then you two should set off. Be careful on the road; it's not safe here now. You might run into Theresis's people," Closure warned. "If you do encounter Theresis's people, remember to give them a good beating for me!"

"Okay, no problem."

Han Fei nodded slightly. If you encounter someone, fight them; if you can't beat them, then consider using Run.

In any case, in this kind of small environment, it's quite easy for Hagibee to use their smoke to switch locations.

Let's go.

Han Fei led his men out of the room.

Back in the corridor, Ines immediately said, "If you don't mind, I'd like to scout the way for you."

She paused, a confident glint in her eyes. "I am an intelligence officer, and also the best scout."

After saying that, Ines looked at Han Fei with an expression that said, "I've already told you everything, but the decision is yours."

Han Fei was somewhat surprised and said, "So eager?"

Ines was indeed bound by an oath, but that only bound her from infidelity.

In other words, if Han Fei gives the order, Ines has no way to disobey; but if Han Fei doesn't give the order, Ines can slack off without feeling guilty, which isn't necessarily wrong.

Doing nothing prevents you from making mistakes.

Ines remained composed and said in a deep voice, "Because Your Highness saved me."

Han Fei nodded knowingly and said, "Oh, it seems there is such a thing."

He remembered that when Ines and W were still mercenaries, they had once gotten into trouble and were in dire straits.

It was Theresa who saved them both, and it was during that time that W became Theresa's number one fan.

In terms of relationship and loyalty, they were much closer than Ines.

W is a genuine follower of Theresa, while Ines, although also a member of Theresa's camp and carries out the Babel mission, is more like an outsourced employee.

"Then go ahead."

Han Fei shrugged and said, "Remember to come back and report to me immediately if anything happens."

Ines paused for a moment, then suddenly bent down and whispered, "Yes."

After saying that, Ines jogged a few steps and disappeared into the shadows around the corner. By the time Han Fei arrived, she was gone.

"Is this her Originium Arts?"

Lemuen gazed at the deserted corner. "It's indeed a good place to gather intelligence."

I guess so.

Han Fei shrugged. "She's definitely got some skills in this area."

"Tch, I can't hide it from my older sister anyway." Lemuen wasn't too bothered, glancing at her sister with unwavering trust. "Right, sis?"

"Um."

Lemuen responded softly.

Ines's Originium Arts are indeed formidable, but her eyes and her gun have already marked her.

Texas offered no comment, simply stating, "Boss, shall we head to the medical area now?"

"Why go to the medical area now? There's no rush."

Han Fei shrugged. "Let's see how things go first, we'll search slowly."

The drop rate was clearly pretty good this time; you could tell from Xiao Le's expression that she kept getting gold.

If that's the case, why rush into a fight?

Since there are no enemies nearby, let's eat first.

Even a ferocious, aggressive team wouldn't skip meals and start fighting before anything else even happens, would they?

With this in mind, Han Fei continued his relentless search as always.

As a result, after searching two rooms, a gunshot shattered Han Fei's dinner-time atmosphere.

"Huh? It's a gun?!"

Lemuen was stunned, thinking, "There are guns here? Are there other Sankta?"

Lemuen was much calmer. Although there was surprise in her eyes, she wasn't as easily moved as Xiao Le. She said softly, "It is indeed a gun. It sounds like it's not far away."

"About three hundred meters."

Texas, using the sound to orient herself, said, "Go left after you leave, it's very close."

After saying that, she looked at Han Fei, her beautiful heterochromatic eyes filled with two words—"Shall we go?"

"Let's go take a look."
