Although Captain Reed was very surprised, he still showed that he didn’t understand, his expression saying, ‘Why do I not understand it at all?’.
“Who doesn’t know your name, Yerkes?”
“You are a famous old fox in our Imperial City! Who would dare to play you like a fool?”
Captain Reed pretended to be dumb and acted as if he didn’t know what had happened. He spoke in a somewhat strange tone.
After Leader Yerkes heard it, he was so angry that he laughed.
“I didn’t expect you, Reed, to be an expert who knows how to pretend to be dumb!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Leader Yerkes’ expression suddenly changed. He said in a deep voice, “Did you issue the mission for the Undead Mountain Range?”
…
Reed was shocked! ‘What? How did he know about that? Could it be that Yerkes really used his authority to obtain my information?’
‘Yerkes, you have really fallen!’
‘Aren’t you afraid that the Adventurers’ Union’s hundreds of years of clarity will be destroyed in an instant?’
Thinking of this, Reed thought sadly, ‘Would you, Yerkes, really abuse your authority for such a small matter?’
“I really misjudged you!” Reed said with some anger.
“You actually used your authority for this. The investigation mission was issued, and you actually went to investigate the client?”
“Aren’t you afraid that the Adventurers’ Union’s reputation will be ruined by you?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Leader Yerkes burst into laughter.
“Hahaha! Reed, you admit it?”
Reed realized that he had been fooled when he heard this!
“You tricked me?”
“So what if I did?!” Yerkes said with a little pride.
“I was sure that this matter was done by you! So I came here to test it out, but I didn’t expect it to be cheated by me!”
Yerkes was very happy now, and a sense of superiority in his IQ arose spontaneously… ‘As expected, Reed, you can’t beat me!’
Reed didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He originally thought that he could play with Yerkes ruthlessly this time, and let the leader of the Adventurers’ Union work for him for free!
But he didn’t expect that Yerkes would also discover it…
Wait a minute!
Reed suddenly seemed to have thought of something. The request of his mission this time was to find the villages near the Undead Mountain Range, why there were people who had risen from the dead, and the reason for their appearance! And solve this problem!
But now Reed knew that the strangeness near the Undead Mountain Range was caused by the Puppeteer behind the scenes!
Yerkes had brought people here and asked for a reward!
Could it be that… Yerkes and his people had already finished off the Puppeteer?
Impossible! That was the Puppeteer! If they could easily finish them off, the Adventurers’ Union 100 years ago wouldn’t have allied with so many forces in the Imperial Capital to barely finish off the Puppeteer organization!
Moreover, the Adventurers’ Union only sent three people this time!
It had only been a few days, how could they get rid of the Puppeteer?
‘Could it be that Yerkes is already this thick-skinned? He can even cheat me of the reward?’
Thinking of this, Reed had an expression that said, ‘I’ve already seen through you, Leader Yerkes.’
“Yerkes, I won’t fall for your trick this time!”
“You’re also trying to scam my reward this time, right?”
“I didn’t expect that! You, Yerkes, are actually so thick-skinned to such an extent? You’re even going to scam the reward for the mission?”
This time, it was Leader Yerkes who had the expression, ‘What are you talking about? Why do I look like I don’t understand?’
“Who’s scamming you!”
“Our Union’s people have already dealt with the Puppeteer of the Undead Mountain Range. Why aren’t you taking out the Evolution Grass?”
“What?!” Reed’s pupils dilated as he stared at Yerkes in disbelief.
“You mean you’ve completed the mission?”
Leader Yerkes said proudly, “Of course! We’ve already taken care of the incident in the Undead Mountain Range!”
“Where’s the Puppeteer? Dead? Or has he escaped?” Reed almost blurted out.
Leader Yerkes looked at him and didn’t answer immediately.
Reed thought that the Puppeteer had escaped, and his expression instantly fell. That’s right! With the terrifying strength of the Puppeteer, wouldn’t it be easy to escape?
Reed seemed to have confirmed this matter in his heart. The Puppeteer had already escaped…
“The Puppeteer… can be considered dead! But it can also be said that he’s not dead yet!”
‘Eh?’ Reed was immediately puzzled when he heard this. What did he mean by dead but not dead yet? Was he talking about tongue twisters?
“Tell me in detail!” Reed was extremely anxious! After all, the life and death of this Puppeteer were related to his next arrangements! At a higher level, it was even related to the safety of the Empire!
However, Yerkes did not immediately answer his question. Instead, he said indifferently, “Give us the reward for this mission first! I will explain the problem of the Puppeteer to you!”
Reed looked at Yerkes with a frown. At this time, he still had the mood to ask for the reward?
However, this also proved that the problem of the Puppeteer was not big at the moment!
He and Yerkes had grown up together, so he had a better understanding of his character. At least, Yerkes would not joke about such a big problem! If the Imperial City was really in danger, Yerkes would definitely be more anxious than him!
Otherwise, he would not have issued a mission and asked the Adventurers’ Union to investigate this incident!
Thus, Reed took out a box from his desk and handed it over.
“This is the Evolution Grass! Quickly tell me what exactly happened!”
However, Leader Yerkes did not reach out to take the Evolution Grass. Instead, he pointed at a youth behind him.
“Give it to him! He is the key person to complete this Undead Mountain Range!”
Only then did Reed carefully observe the people behind Yerkes…
Initially, Reed knew that Yerkes had brought a few people over, but he did not care!
After listening to Yerkes’ introduction, Reed looked at them.
First, a girl wearing a rabbit-head mask attracted Reed’s gaze…
A girl with an outstanding figure and temperament. Although he couldn’t see the face under the mask, Reed was still sure in his heart that this must be a beauty!
Then, there was a butler-like Sali. Reed recognized him. This was Leader Yerkes’ butler. However, he was carrying a sack that seemed to contain a person. Reed could not help but suspect that they were going to kidnap people.
Finally, Reed saw a young man wearing a dragon-head mask at the end!
Although this young man was not as elegant as Rabbit, he still had a unique temperament!
“Is this the key person who completed this mission?”
