As a queen who has lost her kingdom, I can see the comments section.

Upon seeing this message, Amelia knew it was left by the Beck Adventurers.

She just sent the Baker Adventurer Group to find the Black Crow Adventurer Group yesterday, and today they say they have information? Would she believe such a thing?

Chapter 61 A Plan to Turn the Tide

Amelia never thought finding the Black Crow Adventurers would be an easy task, after all, it was something Eileen had searched for a very long time in the original story but hadn't been able to find.

So when she saw the message left by the Baker Adventure Team, her first reaction was that it was a trap.

"If I'm not mistaken, their adventurer group wants to lure us there, then capture us and seize the Heart Image of the Sword of the God of War by force."

Amelia muttered to herself.

[That's right, that's exactly it. As expected of Amelia, she figured it out immediately.]

[I was worried Amelia would get hit when the scene just switched, but I was clearly overthinking it.]

[The entire Baker Adventure Team is mobilizing to plan this operation, which shows they value Amelia and Irene quite a bit.]

No matter how much they value it, as long as we don't go there, there won't be any problems.

[Stand them up.]

【Coo coo coo.】

Seeing the comments scrolling by, Amelia smiled slightly.

The anime had previously shifted its focus to Baker's adventure team, so the audience already knew what was happening there. The comments from the viewers further confirmed her suspicions.

Although the Baker Adventurer Group was originally just a side move she made, she didn't want to be polite anymore since they chose deception and violence so decisively.

Setting down the newspaper, Amelia picked up Omar's diary from the table and looked at it again.

After reading the diary, Amelia frowned slightly because she didn't find the content she wanted to see, which would hinder her next move.

After thinking for a moment, Amelia said to Eileen, "Eileen, I plan to have the Baker Adventurer Group fight the Red Moon Society, but we need to find a way to gather the Red Moon Society members. I wonder if there is any information about this in this diary."

"The news of the Red Moon Society members gathering?" Eileen knew what Amelia was thinking: "It's just a diary, and normally Omar wouldn't record things like this, would he?"

Omar did not record these things in his diary.

However, Amelia was actually just revealing her needs to the audience, who might know how the Red Moon Society gathered.

In fact, the audience did know this because it had been shown in the original storyline. Soon, the audience mentioned two kinds of Red Moon Society gathering codes, one for a normal gathering and the other for an emergency gathering.

Emergency Gathering is a technique that even members of the Red Moon Society cannot use lightly. Once used, it signifies the discovery of something extremely important, and all Red Moon Society members who have seen the coded message in the vicinity must gather there.

This is exactly what Amelia wanted!

"Found it! There really was information about this in the diary." Amelia smiled and closed the diary.

When viewers watch anime, they naturally won't be able to see exactly what's in the books the characters are reading, so her excuse is perfectly valid.

Eileen hadn't read the entire diary, so upon hearing this, she simply assumed Omar had indeed left a message and didn't think much of it.

"Eileen, let's disguise ourselves and head out to the Red Maple Newspaper Office," Amelia said, thinking about her plan.

Red Maple Newspaper is a newspaper located in Red Maple District, not too far away. They publish two newspapers, Red Maple Morning News and Red Maple Evening News, which are distributed throughout several principalities and have decent sales.

The secret code for the Red Moon Society's gathering is to publish the code in the comment section of the Red Maple Evening News.

Soon after, Amelia and Eileen, dressed in cloaks and hoods, secretly left when no one was passing by outside the house, and then deliberately chose to travel through alleys to reach the Red Maple Newspaper Office.

The weather in Beard was gloomy all day, with the autumn wind howling through the streets and fallen leaves piling up in the corners.

On the street, police officers were talking to sanitation workers, ordering them to sweep the fallen leaves more diligently, assuring them that they had to maintain the image of the capital. The sanitation workers could only nod and dared not respond.

Seeing this, Aaron Gallagher lowered his beret and strolled leisurely to the newsstand in the twilight.

"Give me a copy of the Red Maple Evening News."

Aaron raised his head, his red hair falling down, his eyes brown, his face angular and covered with a bit of stubble.

After paying with a 10-dollar note, Aaron took a copy of the Red Maple Evening News and immediately went to read the comments section.

As a member of the Red Moon Society, he knew very well that the message board of the Red Maple Evening News was the area where the organization would leave messages, but most of the time the organization's messages would not be seen in this area.

Aaron looked on casually, and just when he thought there would be no more information from the organization today, his gaze suddenly sharpened again.

"The bat flapped its wings, clutching a blood-red cherry, and flew to that mysterious place..."

A coded message appeared before Aaron, clearly indicating an urgent gathering of the Red Moon Society. Following the message were an address and the time of the gathering.

The Red Moon Society would never dare to use secret codes carelessly. This is a bloody and brutal organization, and if they used secret codes carelessly, they would be subjected to the most inhuman treatment. So, something really important must have happened.

'With the red moon above, could it be that all the women who meet the criteria have been captured? If so, we can perform the blood sacrifice ahead of schedule. Or perhaps an accident occurred during the clandestine capture of the eligible women? In any case, let's go and check it out later.'

Aaron put away the newspaper, knowing he had to leave.

==========

Before I knew it, the day had passed.

The twilight bathed No. 32 Red Maple Street in a golden glow, making the whole house and yard feel languid and inviting.

After glancing up at the glowing clouds overhead, Amelia looked away and drew her bow to unleash the Sigh of the Wind.

"Whoosh!"

With a whooshing sound, the blue arrow shot out and pierced the center of the target in the distance.

Seeing this, Amelia nodded in satisfaction: "Eileen, look, my aim has become exceptionally accurate now."

“That’s great progress,” Eileen said, adding, “It seems we can’t just train in the yard anymore; it’s too small. We need to find a more suitable training ground.”

The courtyard is only ten meters long, while the attack range of a bow and arrow is obviously much longer. With each increase in distance, the difficulty of hitting the target will undoubtedly increase significantly.

"I understand. I'll trouble you to clean up the traces left by the Sigh of the Wind later. Also..." Amelia looked up at the sky again, a smile appearing on her lips, "It's getting dark. We should go and get ready to watch the excitement."

Chapter 62 Night in Moonlight Street

The dim yellow light faded, and the purple moon hung high in the sky, appearing hazy and indistinct.

The clouds were very thick today, almost completely obscuring the starlight. The purple moon didn't even make it across the sky for long before being hidden by the passing clouds. The sky was dark, like a vast, dark ocean.

The city of Beard was illuminated by the lights of its lamps, keeping most of the city bright and inspiring awe at the wonders of alchemy.

North District, Moonlight Street.

Amelia and Irene, dressed in black robes, hoods, and masks, arrived inside a clock tower.

The clock tower was silent, the hands ticking away. In the past, it would have been brightly lit, and the building was tall enough that the people of Beard could easily see the time displayed here.

However, the lights at the clock tower have recently broken down, and the person in charge of repairs is temporarily unavailable, so the area will be plunged into darkness for several nights.

Under the thick darkness of the night, the clock tower offered little visibility, but its height provided an excellent vantage point for Amelia and Eileen to observe.

They were looking at a small alley in the distance.

That was the meeting place she had agreed to meet with the Baker Adventurer Group, and the meeting place she pointed to with the Red Moon Society's emergency gathering code was also in that alley.

At that moment, under their watchful eyes, a group of people entered the dark alley.

As expected, the Red Moon Society members arrived and fell into the trap set by the Baker Adventure Team.

==========

The Red Moon Society is very strict about the time of their gathering. They say they will arrive at a certain time, and they will arrive at that time. They will not arrive early or late. Therefore, when Aaron arrived in the alley, the rest of the Red Moon Society members arrived at the same time.

As soon as Aaron entered the alley, he sensed that something was amiss.

A barrier rose up around them, directly isolating the alley from the outside world. The black barrier was almost invisible in the night, and if Aaron hadn't been a mid-level apostle, he wouldn't have even noticed it.

How is this going?

As Aaron was still feeling surprised, a group of people emerged from the depths of the alley.

They were people dressed in leather armor, looking like adventurers.

These people are clearly not members of the Red Moon Society!

Upon seeing this group of people, Aaron and the other members of the Red Moon Society felt a chill in their hearts. At this point, they knew they had fallen into a trap. But how could the secret signal for the Red Moon Society's emergency assembly have been known by others?

There's no time to think about this issue now.

"Who are you? What do you want?" Aaron asked in a deep voice.

Among the Red Moon Society members in Beard City, he held the highest rank and was currently the leader of the Red Moon Society.

“Don’t you know who we are?” A bald, burly man walked over; he was none other than Baker Lawson, the leader of the Baker Adventurer Group.

"Baker Lawson?"

As a mid-level apostle, Baker was quite well-known in Beard City. Aaron's eyes narrowed when he recognized him.

Why did the Baker Adventurer Group know the Red Moon Society's emergency gathering code and even set a trap to ambush them?

“That’s right, it’s me.” Baker said coldly, “You’ve brought quite a few of you. It seems it won’t be easy to get you to honestly tell me what I want to know. In that case, I’ll just have to arrest you first and then slowly interrogate you. Brothers, get them!”

As he spoke, Baker raised his arm and charged forward, wielding a greatsword like a human tiger, instantly creating an extremely strong sense of oppression.

'The Baker Adventurers want to know about our Red Moon Society? What does he want to know? But whatever it is, their goal is very clear.'

Aaron's expression darkened, and he quickly stomped his foot. A circle of black ripples immediately spread out in front of him, quickly covering Beck and the rest of Beck's adventure team behind him.

As they were touched by the black ripples, the members of the Baker Adventure Team immediately felt a sense of weakness emanating from within their bodies, and their expressions changed accordingly.

'A withered soul? This is the power of death. Is he a believer in the Crimson Moon?'

A thought flashed through Beck's mind, and his expression changed slightly.

The gods that humans can worship include the Sword of the God of War, the Hymn of Ice and Fire, the Book of Mystery, Pure White Wings, and the Crimson Moon.

The first four are legitimate beliefs, but the Crimson Moon is not orthodox because the abilities gained by believers are usually evil and terrifying, and it is often only believed by sinful people.

Beck never expected that the person who took the Heart Image of the God of War's Sword would be a believer in the Crimson Moon, and these kinds of people are usually a huge problem.

However, as long as I obtain the War God's Sword Heart Image Diagram with a high enough level of realism, becoming a high-ranking apostle is just around the corner, so there's nothing to be afraid of!

Thinking of this, Beck shouted and swung his greatsword. A silver-white sword aura immediately followed his movement, tearing through the earth and slashing towards the Blood Moon people.
