The two men quickly finished rummaging through the storage bags. Once they returned to the circle of light, one of them complained.
"It's really exhausting. Shouldn't we have more helpers for this?"
"More helpers? Do you think we're doing something legitimate here? The fewer people who know, the better! If this gets out, our Blackwater City..."
Their conversation was abruptly cut off as the circle of light began to shimmer. The two men vanished within the circle, and soon after, the light disappeared as well.
Alexander emerged from the woods, frowning.
Just as he suspected.
Those who took the storage bags from the corpses were indeed from Blackwater City!
Moreover, from the conversation of those two men, it was clear.
Blackwater City planned to kill all the over three thousand people who entered here in the same manner!
"Blackwater City... quite audacious indeed."
But Alexander was still puzzled.
