Armand died on the spot. Berserker Charlotte walked forward as if she had entered an uninhabited land. Her fists were like heavy cannons, striking every Lingluo Race member.

None were spared. Their chests exploded, and they died on the spot.

As Charlotte continued to kill, the scarlet in her eyes gradually spread throughout her entire body, activating her true bloodline.

Charlotte was like a lion that had gone mad. Every creature she saw was her prey and nourishment. She could not wait to harvest every life to increase her scarlet power.

After the scene, Vincent could not help but sigh softly, “I didn’t expect Charlotte’s attack to be so terrifying. Moreover, I’ve never seen such an attack method even after meeting so many races!”

Richard, who was more familiar with Charlotte, smiled, and said, “That’s the natural talent of the Berserker. They can stimulate their craziness in battle and never get tired. Moreover, the more they fight, the stronger they become! As for this battle method, it is a unique method of Charlotte’s known as ‘Instant Strike’! Given their physical advantage, they can stomp on the ground fiercely and travel very far in an instant. They can then mobilize all the aura and blood in their bodies to launch a strike. Any race below level 60 would die without a doubt! Moreover, Charlotte once said that the instant strike at its highest level could get rid of the shackles of space and pass through all obstacles. She can then reach her desired target in an instant. Therefore, she always had an advantage on the battlefield. No matter how strange and unpredictable the methods of the Lingluo Race are, they will not be able to block this attack from Charlotte!”

Vincent nodded silently. He had to admit that Charlotte’s instant strike was very effective against the Lingluo Race’s modification authority. The modification authority could not restrict her speed at all.

Moreover, the instant strike could break through all barriers, making the modification authority even more useless!

At the same time, Charlotte’s straight fist attack was even harder to block. If her opponent was weaker than her by a lot, she would not even need to swing her fist. She only needed to press her fist against the opponent’s chest, and she would be able to kill them all easily!

After making sure that all members of the Lingluo Race were unable to retaliate, Vincent quietly put away his Return Journey of the Dead and watched the battle in front of him with his hands behind his back. Richard and Quinn were guarding Vincent’s side. They did not give those Lingluo Race members who were at the end of their rope any chance to retaliate.

Charlotte shook off the blood on her hands after killing the last member of the Lingluo Race. She turned around and walked in front of Vincent with a relaxed expression. She smiled and said, “It’s all settled. You can send the others to check the battlefield!”

Vincent shook his head and said with a serious expression, “There’s no need! I saw the battle. No one could have survived your fist. Quickly carry these corpses out of the camp and dispose of them! I still have something important to tell you!”

Charlotte and the others could not help but nod their heads in curiosity. They then began to dispose of the corpses in the camp.

When the entire camp returned to normal, Charlotte and the others quickly came to Vincent’s side.

Quinn was the first to lose his patience and took the lead to ask Vincent.

“Mr. Vincent, is there anything important you want to tell us? During the time we were away, did anything happen?”

Vincent looked at the three wanderers in front of him with a serious expression. He said in a deep voice, “Before you guys rushed back, I discovered that Boris was the spy lurking in the squad. However, I didn’t make things difficult for him. I only let him leave after I exposed him!”

Quinn’s expression changed when he heard that. Meanwhile, Charlotte and Richard’s expressions were normal, as if they were used to it.

The internal structure of the Wanderers Association was too loose. It was not surprising for there to be spies. There were countless spies caught by venerable level powerhouses like them who had experienced countless missions.

Vincent saw that the three of them had accepted the fact that Boris was a spy. He then said, “Although Edward has been in a coma, his injuries have improved greatly. I believe that he will wake up soon. At that time, we can set off again and leave this place as soon as possible!”

The three of them nodded when they heard that.

Suddenly, Kurt’s voice came from the tent beside them.

“Mr. Vincent, Edward is awake!”

Vincent said to the three of them with a face full of joy, “Let’s go and take a look!”

He turned around and opened the door of the tent. He entered the tent and looked at Edward, who was lying on the bed with his eyes half-open. He looked very weak. He looked like he was going to faint at any moment.

Edward said weakly to Vincent, “Mr. Vincent, be careful! There’s a spy in the team!”

Charlotte and the others who followed Vincent to the tent door heard Edward’s voice. Their expressions could not help but change at the same time.

Vincent’s back was facing the three of them. He raised his hand and gently pressed on Edward’s shoulder. He said softly, “Don’t worry. I’ve already caught the spy and chased him away. Next, you just need to rest and don’t worry anymore!”

Edward used all his strength to shake his head. He slowly raised his hand as if he wanted to point behind Vincent.

Edward widened his eyes and said to Vincent in a trembling tone, “When I was attacked, I saw the face of the attacker! The attacker is…”

However, before he could finish speaking, he fainted again due to overexertion. His half-lifted finger landed on the bed once again.

Vincent could not help but sigh. He turned to Kurt and asked, “How is his injury?”

Kurt assured him with confidence, “Please rest assured, Mr. Vincent. Edward’s injury is no longer serious. It’s just that he has recovered from a serious injury and his body is relatively weak. As long as we prepare food for him and let him rest, he will be fine when he wakes up again!”

Vincent nodded and said with great relief, “Good! In that case, you don’t have to take care of him anymore. Tonight, the two of us will take turns keeping watch. Let everyone have a good rest. Tomorrow morning, we will get ready to set off!”

Kurt nodded and replied in a deep voice, “Yes!”

Vincent stood up and walked out of the tent. He looked at three of them, smiled, and said, “The three of you have worked hard! You should go back and rest early. As for the information that you have collected for the past few days, you can gather them and hand them all over to me tomorrow!”

“Yes!”

The three of them nodded in agreement at the same time. Richard and Quinn then turned around and walked toward their tents.

After so many days of traveling, they were indeed very tired. Under Vincent’s thoughtful care, they naturally had to seize the time to rest.

Only Charlotte stood in front of Vincent with a worried expression. She said in a low voice, “Mr. Vincent, I noticed that Edward is so weak that he can’t hurry on his way. I think he should rest a few more days!”

Vincent shook his head and said with a confident expression, “It’s okay. Even if Edward is weak, I can let Kurt carry him. This way, it won’t affect our travel. We’ve wasted a lot of time. Next, we have to do our best to rush to the Immortal ruins. As long as everyone is not exhausted, there’s no need to stop and rest!”

Charlotte wanted to continue persuading Vincent but was interrupted by Vincent’s wave of his hand.

“Alright, it’s getting late. You should hurry up and rest. Don’t delay our travel tomorrow morning!” said Vincent to Charlotte impatiently.

He then turned around and walked into his tent.

Charlotte stood there in silence for a long time, as if she was still thinking of an excuse to make Vincent change his mind.

Kurt walked out of the tent and looked at Charlotte’s worried face. He could not help but smile and say, “Charlotte, you don’t have to worry too much. Mr. Vincent said that I can carry Edward. This will not affect the speed of the journey. I have been taking care of his injuries these days, and I can guarantee that it won’t relapse on the way. You can go back and rest first. It’s time for me to go out and keep watch!”

Kurt nodded at Charlotte and walked out of the camp.

Charlotte looked at Kurt’s back as he left. She let out a sigh of relief as if she had been relieved of a heavy burden. She then turned around and quietly walked into her tent.

Late at night, the bonfire in the camp had long been extinguished. Kurt, who was guarding the perimeter of the camp, was still meticulously patrolling the surroundings. It was almost the same as the night Edward was attacked not long ago.

The only difference was that there was one less spy in the camp.

Therefore, those in the camp slept very soundly. They did not deliberately guard the surrounding area.

In Edward’s tent, there were sounds of footsteps. The air felt slightly different as well.

Charlotte’s figure soon appeared in front of Edward’s bed. She raised her fist and aimed it at Edward’s chest.

Edward felt an invisible danger in his sleep. He instantly opened his eyes and looked at Charlotte in horror.

Edward curled up in the blanket and asked Charlotte with an unwilling tone, “You, you still want to kill me! I have no enmity with you. Why won’t you let me go?”

Charlotte raised her fist and aimed it at Edward’s head. She sighed deeply and said, “I’m sorry, I originally only wanted Vincent to slow down his journey. I didn’t mean to harm you. But since you’ve seen my face, I can’t let you live!”

Charlotte became ferocious in an instant. Her fist turned scarlet, and she smashed fiercely onto Edward’s bed.

Edward, who was originally timid, suddenly stopped reacting. Following that, a cold, evil, and depraved aura burst out from the bed.

Rip!

Along with the sound of cloth ripping, the blanket covering Edward’s body was instantly split into two. A pitch-black light sword instantly swept out and blocked Charlotte’s fist.

“You’re not Edward at all!” shouted Charlotte.

She looked at the individual in front of her who looked exactly like Edward. He used his weapon to block her attack. She could not help but frown.

“It’s a pity that you found out a little too late!” said the Edward lookalike.

However, his voice sounded more like a female voice. It was full of ridicule and disdain.

Charlotte was stunned. She then thought of something and immediately rushed out of the tent leaving the fake Edward behind.

However, when Charlotte broke the door and entered the camp, she immediately stopped.

The camp was brightly lit. Although there was no wood left to start a bonfire, the burning flames were getting stronger and stronger. Charlotte’s face started to heat up.

She saw figures standing around the camp.

Richard and Quinn had been woken up at some point in time. They were both looking at Charlotte in disbelief.

Vincent was standing in front of his tent. Behind him was Edward, who had recovered from his injuries.

At the same time, Kurt slowly walked back to the entrance of the camp, blocking Charlotte’s only way out.

Charlotte looked at Edward behind Vincent and immediately understood everything. She shook her head and sighed helplessly, “So all of this was a ploy against me. At first, I thought that I had gained your trust, but now it seems that I’ve overestimated myself. You’ve been suspecting me from the beginning to the end!”

Vincent stared at Charlotte in front of him. He said in a deep voice, “Actually, I did have a lot of trust in you at the beginning, but later on, you exposed yourself as a suspect. I knew that you were the intruder. I did this today just to let everyone see it for themselves!”

Charlotte showed a surprised expression. She said with certainty, “Impossible, I didn’t reveal any flaws. How can you be sure that I was the one who ambushed Edward?”

Vincent turned around and patted Edward’s shoulder, saying softly, “You exposed yourself the first time we rushed into Edward’s tent!”

“I don’t understand!”

Charlotte still maintained her temperament and waited for Vincent to explain for her.

Vincent turned to look at the others. He smiled and said, “Do you still remember when we rushed into Edward’s tent? At that time, his chest was badly mutilated. We couldn’t even confirm if he was dead or alive. However, there was only one individual who told me directly that the attacker did not do this to kill Edward, but to seriously injure him and slow down the progress of the team! Who else would say this if not for the attacker herself?”

Charlotte’s entire body trembled. She revealed a look of unwillingness and annoyance. She finally realized how stupid her previous actions were. She had exposed herself to Vincent on her own.

What was even more terrifying was that after Vincent suspected Charlotte, he did not treat her differently and even allowed her to go out on a mission. He did not show the slightest bit of abnormality the entire time.

That was why Charlotte dared to use the same method to attack Edward again and was caught on the spot by everyone!

Charlotte suddenly laughed softly, and she sighed helplessly, “Actually, I did not take you seriously from the start because although you showed many of your abilities, you are still only a level 50 creature after all, so it was not enough for me to take you seriously. But now, it seems that I was careless and had completely underestimated your ability. If I am given another chance, I would not even choose to accept this mission because you make me feel fearful. Just because of one sentence from me, you can conclude that I am guilty!”

Vincent shook his head, smiled, and said, “It’s not just because of that one sentence. After that, I also analyzed with Edward that Richard and Quinn’s methods did not meet the conditions to enter the tent to launch an attack. Meanwhile, Boris is just someone who forgets loyalty for profits. He will only take the opportunity to slack off. He does not have the motive to kill at all!”

Charlotte took a deep breath and slowly said, “So the only creature worth suspecting is me! What a brilliant idea. I just don’t know what else you have done that I’m not aware of. Although I’m not sure, I think that with your cautiousness, you will have to get final confirmation before exposing me in public!”

Vincent nodded and looked at the bloodstains left in the camp. He said softly, “And these members of the Lingluo Race that have attacked me, I deliberately allowed them to enter the camp to attack me. The purpose was to lure you to attack and expose your means of attacking Edward! To be able to create such a powerful move like the instant strike, I have to say that I am very impressed by your strength and intelligence!”

Charlotte finally smiled and showed a relieved expression. She said in a relaxed tone, “In order to find out the truth, you can even use yourself as bait. It’s not unfair for me to lose to you! Since everything is clear, then I won’t have the chance to stop your actions anymore. Let’s part on good terms and say goodbye. I look forward to the next time we meet!”

Charlotte was ready to turn around and leave. She did not care about the strange looks from the others.

“Wait!”

Vincent suddenly pulled out the Return Journey of the Dead from his waist and called out to Charlotte. He said in a deep voice, “Who says you are allowed to leave just like that? Tell me who ordered you to cause trouble in the dark, and I can spare your life! Otherwise, I will kill you directly according to the rules of the Wanderers Association!”

Charlotte turned around and looked at Vincent with some surprise. She said with a face full of disbelief, “You did not do anything to Boris, a level 55 creature. You even let him leave on his own. Do you actually have the confidence to keep me here? Don’t assume that you can be fearless just because Richard is here. If I want to kill you, even he can’t stop me!”

“Charlotte, I advise you to calm down! The Wanderers Association will not let you off if you kill your leader!” warned Richard.

He then gave Vincent a look, agreeing that what Charlotte said was true.

Vincent did not care about Richard’s hint at all. He only said to Charlotte coldly, “I didn’t kill Boris because he didn’t betray me on this mission. It doesn’t mean that I can’t kill him! I’m not letting you leave now, and I’m not pinning my hopes on anyone else, because I’m confident that I can kill you alone!”

Charlotte could not help but twist her neck excitedly and reply proudly, “Well, if you can defeat me today, not only will I let you keep your life, but I’ll also tell you the information that you want to know!”
