"This little good-for-nothing finally proved useful."
After receiving an affirmative response from the Money Rat, Luo Fan felt a surge of delight.
After killing Rose for the first time, he had kept the Money Rat by his side.
Yet all this time, the Money Rat had never shown any sign of discovering treasure.
Had it finally found some now?
"Where's the treasure you sensed? Which direction?" Luo Fan asked the Money Rat.
Squeak, squeak, squeak...
The Money Rat could not speak, but its little paws gestured rapidly, practically like a ninja weaving hand signs in Naruto.
"All right, hold on. Stop fussing..." Luo Fan could not understand its gestures at all, so he could only tell it to quiet down.
Then Luo Fan left his RV and found Zhao Chunfeng.
"Brother Zhao, the Money Rat's acting up. It says it's discovered treasure. Could you perform a divination and see whether searching for it would bring good fortune or disaster?" Luo Fan explained the situation to Zhao Chunfeng.
"Sure!"
Zhao Chunfeng nodded at his words, immediately took out the Steel Coins, and swiftly performed a divination.
After shaking a few coins and interpreting the reading, Zhao Chunfeng looked rather grim. "Judging by the reading, this is an omen of great disaster."
Luo Fan: "..."
Well, an ill omen meant there was a very real chance the convoy would suffer casualties.
Usually, the convoy would find ways to avoid such omens.
Last time, they had been unable to avoid the Demon Weird in the Illusion Realm and had only confronted it because they had no other choice.
Moreover, everyone had prepared beforehand, buying and upgrading Uncanny Artifacts to improve their strength.
But now? The divination had actually produced an omen of great disaster?
That was even more serious than an ill omen.
