The next morning, the hyacinth was awakened by the cold morning breeze.

After Hyacinth regained consciousness, the first thing she did was check her backpack.

Before being captured by Shen Yuan, Hyacinth had a habit of setting a trap before going to bed, but for some reason she forgot to do so yesterday.

"Looks like I've been living too comfortably lately," Mouse said, patting its little head.

Fortunately, this area is extremely desolate, and not many people usually come here.

So the hyacinth didn't lose anything.

After checking it over, Hyacinth stuffed the board into her backpack and left without looking back.

She has more important things to do.

Hyacinth then arrived at the place where she was to meet the Ice Adventure Team.

Hyacinth was taken aback when she saw the adventure team's attire.

Similarly, the adventure team was also taken aback when they saw what Hyacinth was wearing.

"Why are you still wearing this outfit? And carrying that big backpack?" Sasha asked.

Hyacinth was still wearing that adventurer's outfit to conceal her identity.

On the contrary, the entire Ice Adventure Team was dressed in relatively glamorous formal attire.

Looking at the hyacinth with a confused expression, Sasha said:

"Fine, but you need to find a place to hide this backpack; it's just too conspicuous."

Then Hyacinth looked troubled.

"I don't know where to put it," the hyacinth said truthfully.

"It's alright, she and I won't go in with you," the thief explained after saying that.

"Once that merchant opens the door and disables the magical guards, I can sneak her in."

"Let's go then. I sent the message yesterday, and he should be waiting for us at the mansion now."

Then, Sasha waved his hand and everyone was mobilized.

The group soon arrived at the wealthy merchant's mansion.

After the doorbell was rung, the door opened automatically, and a fat figure walked out of the mansion.

Upon seeing this, Sasha immediately gave the thief a look.

The thief instantly understood and began to activate his skill.

A shadow looms over it.

A shadow looms over it.

[A shadow looms!]

After unleashing her skills three times in a row, Hyacinth remained standing there, searching for the vanished thief.

Hyacinth tugged at LS Sha's sleeve and whispered:

"Um... I haven't..."

In response to Hyacinth's question, Sasha coughed loudly.

Upon hearing the vice-captain's reminder, the thief, who had already slipped into the shadows, immediately unleashed his signature skills.

[Shadow Walk]!

[Shadow Overlay]!

[Simultaneous Invisibility]!

"All of them are invalid?!"

Faced with this outrageous result, the thief in stealth almost lost his composure.

Fortunately, he managed to calm himself down in time and didn't lose his stealth mode.

But now it's impossible to use the skill again; the wealthy businessman has already approached.

The wealthy businessman also noticed Hyacinth carrying a huge backpack.

"Isn't this the Ice Adventure Team? Welcome to our humble abode!"

The wealthy businessman spread his arms wide, pretending to be magnanimous in welcoming the Frost Adventurers.

"Mr. Porbock, it's an honor to meet you."

Faced with the unexpected situation, Sasha forced a stiff smile in response.

Upon hearing this, the wealthy businessman laughed heartily and said:

"Hahaha, what's with all this talk about fame? I'm just a businessman."

"I received your letter last night. Are you planning to settle down in Hamlet?"

When questioned by the wealthy businessman, Sasha responded flawlessly:

"Of course, although the main cause of the mutation has been resolved, there may be other treasures."

"Yes, anything is possible, isn't it? Alright, standing at the door is tiring, let me show you around."

The wealthy businessman stepped aside, gesturing for the members of the Frost Adventurers to enter.

The wealthy businessman merely glanced at Hyacinth, who was carrying a huge backpack, and then paid her no further attention.

They're just a group of adventurers; he wouldn't be surprised by what they do.

But when the hyacinth passed by the wealthy businessman, she lowered her head deeply, as if afraid that he would recognize her.

Then, everyone, including Hyacinth, filed in.

Afterwards, the wealthy businessman led the Ice Adventure Team on a tour of the mansion.

When the wealthy merchant led everyone to an ordinary corridor, Hyacinth's eyes were fixed on the garden not far away.

The thief in the group immediately understood what Hyacinth meant, and he tugged at LS Sha's sleeve.

It conveys the message that "the target has been identified and is being addressed."

Although Sasha was confused after receiving the message, she chose to believe that the thief had indeed found the body because of her trust in him.

"Alright, we've pretty much finished the tour. What do you all think? Shall we go to the study to discuss the contract?"

The wealthy businessman turned around and asked.

Having just received news from the thieves, Sasha knew she needed to stall for a while longer.

So Sasha said, "Of course, we're very interested."

Upon hearing this, the wealthy businessman grinned from ear to ear.

"Okay, okay, come this way."

Afterwards, everyone followed the wealthy merchant to his study.

Just as everyone was about to sit down, someone suddenly barged in.

"My lord, it's terrible! The Earl's daughter has come to our door!"

He was a close confidant of a wealthy businessman.

"What?!!"

Upon hearing the news from his confidant, the wealthy businessman stood up in disbelief.

Realizing his lapse in composure, the wealthy businessman smiled awkwardly and said:

"Distinguished guests, please wait for me a moment, I will be back soon."

After saying that, he was about to go out to deal with the emergency.

But he was too late.

"Porpok! What exactly are you going to do about the mine?!"

Before she even arrived, her voice preceded her. Count Hamlet's daughter, Veronica, kicked open the door.

But after seeing everyone in the room clearly, she slowly withdrew her foot.

Veronica stood there, coughing awkwardly.

"Oh, so you have guests. I'm so sorry to bother you."

Unlike Veronica's embarrassment, the wealthy businessman was already drenched in sweat.

He said, trembling, "Lady Veronica, please grant me two more days. I am currently raising funds for compensation."

Then he pointed to the Frost Adventurers and said:

"Look, I even sold my house to raise the compensation money."

Upon hearing this, Veronica turned to the wealthy businessman and said fiercely:

"It would be best if it were exactly as you said!"

Then she turned her head to the adventurers; given the reputation of the Frost Adventurers, Veronica naturally knew who they were.

Then Veronica put on a friendly expression and said:

"I won't bother you any longer. I wish you all a pleasant adventure."

Faced with Veronica's two-faced nature, the members of the Frozen Adventure Team exchanged bewildered glances.

Although she was highly respected among the adventurers in Hamlet because of her kind attitude towards them.

But this is going too far.

Just as Veronica was about to leave, she suddenly drew her weapon and shouted:

"Who's there! Sneaking around like that! Come out now!"

Veronica then slashed her sword towards the thief.
