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!” NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

“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?”

“That’s possible. But the Ingram family probably lost a lot more aircraft other than those on Earth. Their

Pioneers fought everywhere, and many of them died.” Gerald shook his head and said, “In short, for

the next few days, we should stay at home for a while before we act.”

The others nodded!

Half a year was not a short period of time, so there was no need for them to take the risk.

Three days passed quietly. During this time, Charles contacted Gerald and the others twice and told

them that he had begun to work. Everything was a success.

The City of Phoenix… looked very calm. There was no huge change because of Anabel.

Of course, under the calm surface, there was a hidden undercurrent. During this period of time, the

Four Ancient Families eliminated two families which had conflicts with them. One Flame Decayer was

killed by Lightchasers.

Gerald knew that the Four Ancient Families were threatening others. They felt that their authority was

challenged because one Flame Decayer and four Half-Step Flame Decayers were killed. They were

angry about that

Gerald did not care about their threats.

What surprised Gerald and the others was that on the second day of the conflict between Gerald and

Anabel, most of the people who were guarding the city gate were gone.

Everything seemed to return to peace.

Three days later, Gerald told Valery about the missions related to the other four Half-Step Flame

Decayers. They began to move once again.

In the outer ring of the City of Phoenix, a place where the lower-class people lived, Gerald and Claude

carried weapons on their backs, passed through the area where the lower-class people were, and then

went out of the city gate!

Gerald decided to make a move. They went out of the city gate and headed straight for the suburbs.

Not many people lived in the suburbs of the City of Phoenix. Though the suburban areas here were

safer than other cities, it wasn’t convenient to live here. And the house prices here were higher than in

the outer ring of the City of Phoenix.

In the suburbs, most of the buildings were relatively lower.

Gerald… was planning to make a move on Gael Cruz of the Cruz family.

According to the information, Gael had been active in a villa called “Foliage Manor” in the suburbs

during this period of time. Gerald found that Foliage Manor was a mysterious place. People of the Four

Ancient Families often came here. And there was always a Flame Decayer here.

Gerald even suspected that there was some secret of the Four Ancient Families in Foliage Manor.

Gael was in charge of guarding Foliage Manor recently. He was called the most genius one in the Four

Ancient Families in the last 100 years.

Foliage Manor was heavily guarded. Except for one Flame Decayer, there were also other experts.

As for Gael, he would come out of the villa every night. He had the habit of sitting in a lake pavilion for

one hour every day.

Gerald did not know why Gael had such a habit, but… this gave Gerald a chance to kill Gael.

Gerald brought Claude with him because he wanted Claude to try killing Gael from a distance.

If Claude failed, Gerald would do it himself.

Outside the city gate, not far from the city gate, a hover car was parked there. Gerald leaned over and

got into the car!

Above the hover car was Laylah and Lexie’s car.

“You finally came!” Laylah smiled and said, “This is…”

“This is my friend. You can call him Claude. Today, you have to rely on him to finish the mission. The

battle later will have Flame Decayers involved. You can’t help.” Gerald said.

“He’s also a Flame Decayer?” Lexie was shocked.

Gerald smiled and said, “He… is much more useful than a Flame Decayer.”
