"Mr. Pablo is out tonight and has not returned yet."
Pablo lived in a white tower in the innermost part of the tribe. There were two rows of patrolling guards outside, and each row has twelve people. One row safeguards the outside and the other on the inside, not including the two guards at the door.
Hearing the guard's words, Zack nodded and said, "Mr. Kason has a woman stay for the night, so Mr. Baron ordered me to tell the Lord."
"Don't worry, Mr. Zack. I will pass on the message to the Lord." The guard replied.
Zack turned and walked back.
He encountered the patrols on the way and stood on the side, waiting for them to leave. After they left, Zack looked up at the patrol team and frowned.
There was one patrol missing.
There were a total of twelve patrols, but now there were only eleven.
There was a cry of an eagle in the sky. Zack looked up and caught a big bird soaring in the air through the moonlight.
It was Pablo's falcon.
Since falcon had returned, it meant that Pablo had returned as well.
Zack walked along the wall and heard the staggering footsteps before he walked far. The Lord went out at night without guards but only with his two attendants.
It seemed to be a private matter.
'Is this private matter related to her?'
Zack lowered his head, hiding the expression under the mask. Hearing the footsteps coming over, he quickly fled to the opposite direction, as light as a cat.
...
"Don't worry, the Lord has sent people to look for Emily. Then you stay here and don't wander around, because this place is different from the outside. If you barge into any forbidden land and were taken to worship as a sacrifice, I can't save you."
Kamron felt that he was like an old maid, constantly reminding these disobedient children from the beginning until now.
He should have completed the mission after delivering these children, but now Emily disappeared. Although the Lord had sent people to look for her, if someone discovered Emily's identity and did something bad, they would fail.
Donna, feeling regret and remorse, didn't eat from the afternoon until now. Emma and Janessa comforted her for a moment but say no more. After all, the most important thing now was to find Emily.
"I heard that someone found a white wig on the ground?" Ferne asked, "Did she drop it?"
"I don't think so." Kamron frowned, "When the wedding starts, many outsiders will sneak in. There are also many people wearing wigs to sneak in because they want to marry the rich."
Ferne was stunned.
Noah raised his eyebrows slightly, "You said before that there were other territories on both sides. Did these people who sneaked in belong to the two territories outside?"
"I don't know, but I think they had sneaked in but haven't been discovered." Kamron yawned, "But last year, Pablo disguised himself as the man of that territory to attend a wedding, and he was assassinated..." Kamron paused, "He was saved. But at that time, the situation was very dangerous. The previous Lord was about to be dismissed, but Pablo was injured and disappeared. If Pablo died outside, then Baron will be the Lord. He is bloodthirsty and is a warrior of the tribe. If you accidentally encounter him, you must take a detour. And you can't go out at night, because there are wolves raised by Baron. Even if the people here are bitten, they can only accept the loss."
"He is so bloodthirsty?" Ferne sighed. 'It is a special hobby to raise wolves, just because he likes the wolf.'
Ferne asked again, "You said that your lord is Pablo and he likes the eagle, so does he raise an eagle?"
"How did you know?" Kamron was a little surprised.
Ferne was silent.
"The eagle was given to him by the High Priest after he was born. It was said that the eagle grew up with him. You can see the Lord where the eagle appeared." Kamron explained.
"I don't understand. Is this place a small town or the tribe you mentioned?" Janessa asked in confusion, "Here, it feels like ... another town that is not restricted by the law."
"Emerald Tribe." Kamron poured himself a cup of water and took a sip before saying, "This place used to be called Emerald Island. Later on, more people came and established a tribe. At that time, the people were uneducated and did not know what did they called it, so they just called it Emerald Tribe. Then the tribe developed greatly and its scale was equivalent to a town where inferiority, superiority, and hierarchy developed, and the person with black hair was the lowest level servant."
No wonder they had to wear a wig before setting off.
All they had black hair. If they were seen from afar, they would be labeled as the lowest level.
"Let's assume that if Emily's wig lost and was discovered by those patrolling guards, then where is she now?" Jaquan asked.
Kamron thought for a moment, "She should be at the dungeon. Because of her unknown identity, guards will take her away for investigation. But if she is taken away by someone who thinks she is a servant, it is also possible that she is at..."
"Let's go to the dungeon to check out at first." Ferne stood up.
Noah also stood up.
Kamron said to Emma and Janessa, "You just stay here." Then he turned to look at Noah and Ferne, and asked, "Do you two know the way to the dungeon?"
Ferne looked at him as if he was a fool. "You are talking nonsense. We just arrived here, so we don't know."
"So?" Kamron continued to ask.
"So you lead the way!" Ferne was speechless.
"I haven't been locked up there, and I don't know where the dungeon is?" Kamron shrugged.
Ferne didn't know what to do.
"Then what should we do?" he asked.
"Wait." Kamron said, "Since the Lord has already agreed to look for Emily, he will consider all the things we have considered. He might have already sent people to look for her at the dungeon. All we have to do is to wait."
"It's getting late. Everyone, go to sleep. No matter if there is any news tomorrow morning, I will come and inform you."
"Alright."
They slept in two rooms. Emma and Janessa accompanied Donna, they lived in one room, and these men also squeezed in the other room.
Ferne and Noah slept on the floor. It was not because they did not have enough room. They just worried that something would happen to each other. They slept in the same room so that they could take care of each other. Moreover, this room was only a wall away from Emma's and Janessa's room. If they listened carefully, they could hear the movement over there, and if something happened at night, they could rush over immediately.
As for why Ferne followed Noah to sleep on the floor...
Only Ferne himself knew the reason.
There were a total of two beds in one room. One was a large bed that looked like a heated brick bed, and the other was slightly smaller, on the other side of the large bed and just like the ancient sofa.
Kamron slept on the sofa. Tom slept on the floor with a mat beside him. Fortunately, it was warm, so there was no need to cover herself with a quilt.
At the large bed, Jaquan and Armando each occupied half of the bed. In the middle, there was a space for one person, which was left for Ferne... However, Ferne did not sleep on the bed. He actively slept on the floor beside Noah.
Because there were many people, Noah did not say anything. At night, Ferne did not do anything special, but he was a restless sleeper. When he was asleep, he huddled together with Noah. Noah did not push him away, and just sighed softly.
From the start until now, he never had a good rest. He was very exhausted and closed his eyes to sleep.
He slept lightly, and even if he was very exhausted, he still retained his vigilance.
When he felt a warmth on his lips, Noah, who should have opened his eyes, continued to pretend to be asleep.
