Chapter 492: 161. “Sacred Position Achievement”

“Knock knock knock…”

Mabel was checking the suitcases one by one when someone knocked on the door to her study.

She glanced at the direction of the door, thought for half a second, and waved her arm.

The suitcases and the alchemy weaponry list on the table flew into the hidden chamber connected to the study.

Noland Lee nodded secretly, feeling that Mabel’s thoughts were meticulous.

If the people outside were to see so many suitcases on the table, it would undoubtedly attract curious inquiries. Mabel put the suitcases and the list into the hidden chamber to eliminate any disturbances to her and Noland Lee’s deal.

“Come in, Betty Davis.”

Mabel spoke towards the door.

Curly orange-haired Betty Davis pushed the door open. Her little face was as clever and playful as ever.

As soon as she entered the room, she looked in amazement at Noland Lee, who was sitting opposite her teacher.

Her eyes blinked a few times, seeming to ask Noland Lee why he was there.

“What’s the matter, Betty? Is there something you need?” Mabel asked.

“Ah, yes, I have something to ask you.” Betty’s brow furrowed as she looked at Mabel behind the desk and said:

“You asked me to deliver a reward to Nikcat, right? I went, but I didn’t see him. I asked his housekeeper, and he went into the Fissure Corridor from the moment the Pollution Zone appeared. But strangely, he didn’t come back after the Pollution Zone was closed. I also went to inquire with the Bionic Skeleton Association that Nikcat was collaborating with, and they didn’t see him either.”

Betty scratched her head:

“Teacher, do you think Nikcat might have met with some trouble in the Pollution Zone too?”

In trouble…Noland Lee’s thoughts flickered.

He suddenly remembered something.

The last time he saw Nikcat, the man was being chased by the fake Fugidia.

After that, he never saw Nikcat’s figure again.

Noland Lee pulled up the memory fragments obtained through Passive Deconstruction to take a look.

Since the System had rendered the memory fragments of the “Fake Fugidia” harmless, Noland Lee could only see disjointed scenes of the chase.

From these memories alone, it seemed that the fake Fugidia eventually lost track of Nikcat. It then turned, under the command of the Blood Sun Seal Descendants, to intercept Mabel near the Black City.

That’s strange.

If Nikcat didn’t die at the hands of the fake Fugidia, where did he go?

Not only Noland Lee didn’t know the answer, but the other two in the study also didn’t know.

After considering it, Mabel shook her head and said:

“Nikcat should be fine. Otherwise, the Tomb King would have come looking for him by now. Forget it, let him be. Give me the reward, and he’ll come to claim it himself.”

“Alright, Teacher.” Betty took out a metal box and put it on the table, then glanced curiously at Noland Lee before leaving.
