Deljo’s heart tightened.

However, the ’Storm Sword’ did not act impulsively. He gestured backward with his hand, and a team of people simply concealed themselves at that spot near the beach, closely observing.

When they realized that the people there were only guards and occasionally carrying out rubble, the ’Storm Sword’ immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Clearly, the relic he was looking for had most likely been discovered by someone else.

But the good news was that whoever discovered the relic had only just begun excavating.

It wasn’t over yet!

With that thought, the ’Storm Sword’ signaled for his team to retreat.

After the group completely withdrew from the beach, the ’Storm Sword’ looked toward his team members behind him.

Although Deljo was the leader of this adventure team, he was well aware that to complete an adventure, just having him as the leader was useless— the entire team, including him, comprised 13 people, each with their respective duties, such as archaeology, riddle solving, decoding, machinery, cooking, etc., all of which he was not skilled at.

The only reason he could be the leader was that he was the strongest and loved adventuring.

"It seems there are no people near that beach, but there are at least 6 secret sentries.

Moreover, what’s more important is that this is in South Los."

The team’s archaeologist and the brains of the group, ’Adi,’ spoke up first.

Having secret sentries near an excavation site is normal.

But arranging so many secret sentries near a relic site within South Los is not normal.

You see, having secret sentries is not a case of the more, the better.

There has to be a balance.

Especially in a bustling city like South Los, where more people mean a higher risk of exposure, unless...

That beach has been privatized!

And privatizing a beach within South Los... is not easy! Stay tuned for updates on novelbuddy

That represents power, reputation.

Their plan was to grab and go.

But now it’s clearly not feasible.

As for conflict with the local powers of South Los?

Unless absolutely necessary, they were unwilling to do so.

They were well aware of the reputation of the ’Mother Tigress’.

"Does the ’Mother Tigress’ know about this relic?

Or is it that the relic is being excavated by the ’Mother Tigress’?"

The team’s cook and assistant striker, ’Pruitt,’ leaned on his mace and scratched his head as he asked.

Compared to the archaeologist Adi, Pruitt was younger and more robust, but both had the same hairstyle— baldness.

Only, Adi’s baldness was natural.

Pruitt had shaved his own head for convenience in cooking.

"If it is really the Earl who is excavating, then we might as well leave."

The team’s Riddle Solver, ’Edwina,’ rolled her eyes.

She was a lady with a slender build, wearing throwing knives and a dagger at her waist, and holding a rapier in her hand. Her dark red hair was still dazzling just before dawn and had to be covered with a headscarf.

"How about we just leave now?

I don’t know why, but ever since we entered South Los, I’ve felt very anxious!"

Little Winna immediately chimed in.

As the team’s decryption expert and Mechanism Cleaner, Little Winna was Edwina’s sister. Unlike her tall sister, this lady was much shorter. She didn’t carry many weapons, but her red hair was equally dazzling.

Similarly, Little Winna had the most assistants in the team.

Her role in the team had already determined this.

Besides Little Winna, the one with the most assistants was Pruitt.

This cook had two sous chefs.

These two sous chefs were also responsible for the team’s firepower support.

Little Winna looked toward Captain Deljo.

And the ’Storm Sword’ looked to Vice-Captain Adi.

Of course, the ’Storm Sword’ did not want to just leave like this.

But, if the team members wanted to leave, he would not oppose it.

As Deljo’s gaze shifted, the rest of the team also turned their eyes toward Adi— being the oldest and the most experienced member of the team, most of the time, it was Adi who made the decisions.

"This place is definitely not being excavated by the Earl of South Los.

"If that were the case, trust me, we would have definitely been discovered just now."

"The South Los House is much more formidable than the world imagines."

"So, it must be someone else."

"But this person must be quite tricky as well—we need to gather as much information as possible after daybreak, and..."

"Find allies!"

"A reliable and powerful ally!"

As Adi spoke, the image of a figure involuntarily appeared in everyone’s mind.

"If that person were to be our ally, I agree!"

Pruitt was the first to agree.

Following him, Edwina and Little Winna also nodded their heads.

"Alright then, let’s do that!"

’Storm Sword’ Deljo clapped his hands and made the final decision.

Immediately, the team started to head back to their residence.

But just as the team had walked less than 200 meters—

Crack! Crack!

A very distinctive sound, like that of fabric being torn, came from the direction of the sea.

The face of ’Storm Sword’ changed.

"The South Los Sea’s defense force field has disappeared!

Hurry!"

’Storm Sword’ urged his teammates to speed up.

The defense force field of the South Los Sea was set up against pirates.

Usually concealed, it would appear at critical moments.

But it would never just disappear.

If it disappeared, it could only have been broken!

And to be broken so silently…

There must be problems within South Los!

Just thinking about it made ’Storm Sword’s’ scalp tingle.

He didn’t know who had broken the South Los Sea’s defense force field from the inside, but he knew that if they were found in the Docklands at this time, they would definitely become suspects.

Or rather, they would be made scapegoats.

’Storm Sword’ was all too familiar with the ways of the nobility.

Not just ’Storm Sword’, everyone in the team understood this as well.

Therefore, the entire team began to sprint as secretly and quickly as possible.

In a nearby building under the eaves, a crow stood in the shadows watching this scene.

Almost immediately, the crow’s gaze shifted towards the direction of the lighthouse—

A tall woman, at least 2 meters in height, appeared there carrying a bow as tall as herself on her back.

Through Wuni’s eyes, Arthur could clearly see the blue and red patterns drawn on the lady’s dark skin.

It was a kind of decoration among the islanders near South Los.

However, unlike those ordinary islanders, this lady’s decorations possessed power.

As the blue and red patterns flickered, she took the large bow off her back.

Then, she drew the bow.

She drew it halfway and then released the bowstring.

Whizz!

In the unique whizzing sound of the drawn bow, the bow didn’t change at all, and an arrow formed entirely of condensed air shot towards a point in the Docklands.

Boom!

The man who was hit by the arrow while hidden in the darkness had his upper body instantly blown to pieces.

The others who saw this scene turned and ran.

The archer calmly continued to ’shoot’ arrows.

But her gaze never fell on those people; instead, she looked towards where the crow was perched.

Suddenly, Arthur felt a chill in his heart.
