Chapter 35: Aftermath of the Fall

5 am.

Xia Zhou opened his eyes and immediately looked at his left hand. The message on the secret message ring was moving:

[Target has fallen. It's a tragedy. Continue to track the target. The anti-detection barrier can shield the detection spells of resident mages. Among the villages and towns you mentioned, several have had an outbreak of plague yesterday. I will speed up and arrive within three days.]

An outbreak of plague??

Xia Zhou became alert and sat up in bed.

Could it be the work of that coachman??

Damn it, bastard.

I should have taken him down in the city!

Xia Zhou slapped his forehead several times, sighing helplessly.

At that time during the day, the timing was just too tight.

Hemster had stayed in the room all day, not stepping out of the alchemy room at all.

If he had chosen to chase after the coachman or alert the resident mage, he wouldn't have been able to witness the entire process of Hemster's fall.
