Chapter 1055: Searching in the night
"Did you find anything yet?"
"There's nothing here. I haven't seen a single thing yet."
There were two voices that rang out through the night, but it wasn't just two people that were here.
There were many different people that were here, looking through this area as if they were looking for something. Even though they had been searching for a while, it seemed that they hadn't been able to find a single thing.
It was as if this place just didn't have what they were looking for.
Finally, the leader of the group waved his hand for everyone to come over.
All of them had grim looks in their eyes when they walked over and that was all that could be seen. That was because all of them were wearing dark masks on their faces that hid their true identities.
Just the fact that they were doing this in the middle of the night was already enough to tell that they were doing this in secret.
As for why they were doing this...
The area that they were currently searching in was the same place where the humans and the group from the Harakka Tribe had been ambushed yesterday. It was in this place that they had been attacked by the unknown assailant.
However, it wasn't as if this group was here to search for clues that would find who the attackers were.
It seemed that they were here to find anything that could be traced to the attacker, but they weren't here to use it to redeem a reward. They were here to get rid of it so that no one would be able to identify the attackers.
It was just that it didn't seem like they were able to find anything.
After they all gathered together, the leader said, "We aren't going to find anything here. Did you see who was here earlier?"n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
The others that were gathered around the leader had helpless looks in their eyes, but one of them eventually spoke.
"There were just too many of them, we couldn't track them all."
Alidus had a look on his face that seemed like he didn't agree with this, but he didn't say anything else in the end.
It was as if he was silently agreeing since he had already committed to this.
In that case, it was better to just go with this plan until the end.
I took one last look in the direction that this group had headed off in before saying, "Let's go,
there's still other things that we have to prepare for tonight."
Alidus gave a casual nod before following behind me.
After all, there was still quite a bit that we had to take care of before this was all over.

When morning came, the giants all came back to the giant market, but they all had different expressions on their faces.
There were some that looked excited, there were some that looked depressed, and there were some that had neutral looks on their faces.
The ones that looked excited were looking around as if they were waiting for something to
happen.
The ones that looked depressed just sat on the side and watched as if they weren't involved in
the matter.
And the ones that had neutral looks...
They just stood there as if this didn't involve them, but the looks deep in their eyes said
otherwise.
