Another World Mall

Chapter 421 Decision

"Clovis. Are you seriously accepting that request? Don't tell me, you're going to do it with only the two of us? I know that we're strong, but this is too reckless." Melody bit her lips.

Clovis shook his head. "No. It won't be just the two of us."

Melody's expression brightened because this only meant one thing. The whole group would take on this mission. Even though it would be hard, there was a high chance that they would accomplish the objective.

However, Clovis actually broke her expectation by saying, "I'll be going alone."

Clovis had one biggest assurance, which was Another World Mall. If it became too dangerous, he could escape to Another World Mall and tend to his injuries there. He could even wait until he recovered before going back.

In addition, he could do much more things if he were alone, such as eating stuff from Another World Mall and freely using all the items at his disposal.

There was no need for a tent as well since he would be sleeping inside Another World Mall.

As expected, Melody slammed the table and protested, "No can do! How insane are you to go alone on this dangerous mission? Do you know the threat that those Tier 4 beasts possess? And we haven't taken the rest of the beasts into account.

"Take the abandoned mall as an example, you would have died if not for me accompanying you!" Melody didn't know about Another World Mall.

At the same time, Clovis couldn't deny the fact that he might not be able to escape from there.

Although he could escape to Another World Mall, there was no guarantee that he could actually escape from there. After all, when he returned, he would be teleported to his original location, which was inside that labyrinth.

The only way to do it was to stay inside the mall for as long as possible and reach the next tier. But that would simply take too much time.

Clovis had made this decision with the assumption that he would be going alone.

However, persuading Melody would definitely be hard.@@@@

"Alright." Melody stood up. But before she packed up their luggage, she couldn't help but ask, "I understand a bit why you accepted it, but I think you would reject her. What made you decide to accept that request?"

Clovis pointed at the picture. "First of all, the locket isn't covered in dust. It doesn't seem to be broken either."

"You're suspecting that the locket is new and somehow placed there?"

"Yeah."

"Did that woman offer this deal just to trap you?"

"No. It was probably not her."

"Her master?" Melody looked surprised.

"I'm not sure. However, it might be the organization behind her as well. The fact that she asked us to deliver this coin to someone just to meet her meant she had joined an organization. And if you take another look at it, why would you place a locket in that tree?"

"!!!" Melody came to a realization. "A test?"

"Yes. It might be a test. If that's the case, keeping in contact with Vina would be the correct thing. At the very least, if she got a higher position, we could gain access to a lot of information."

"Information is power..." Melody rubbed her chin. "So you are thinking that we might need her in the future?"

"Maybe... maybe not. But a lot of problems can be solved if we have information, right?"

"Fair enough. I understand the reason now. I'll pack up my luggage. When do we leave?"

"Tonight."
