“What do we do now?”

Melody asked, her eyebrows furrowing in concern.

The thought of a four-day journey was already daunting for her. If they had to change the route and it took seven

or eight days, how would she cope?

Bradley returned to the couch and started drawing on the map with a red pen.

“If we could fill that dried-up river bed with water, maybe we could take the water route. It would not only save us

the detour but also save time and energy!”

Everyone’s eyes lit up at the idea.

Who would want to trek over mountains if they could travel by water?

However, Bradley added, “Unless it rains from tonight until tomorrow evening, it’s unlikely the riverbed will be filled.

As far as I know, the rain in the Nine Absolute Mountain Range has never lasted more than six hours.”

The optimism in the room faded.

If they could not take the waterway, the mountain paths after the rain would be even more difficult.

Nash stroked his chin. “I have a way to make it rain continuously!”

“Mr. Nash… are you shitting on us?”

Derek could not help but swear, finding the claim hard to believe.

He knew Mr. Nash was formidable, but controlling the weather was something else entirely!

The others also looked at Nash in disbelief.

Nash confidently said, “Just leave it to me!”

“Grandpa…. who were the people at the other two tables earlier?” Nico changed the topic.

“The group in the tourist attire probably came for the same reason we did, to venture into the tombs,” Bradley

began.

“The other group, they’re likely treasure seekers.”

“Treasure seekers?” Nico asked with a curious expression. The others leaned in, eager to know

more.

“Treasure seekers, also known as the Leading Sheep, are just like the Tomb Whisperer Lineage. They wander the

mountains looking for natural treasures!

“They have their own set of skills-observing the sky, surveying the land, detecting dragons, and recognizing entry

points. They’re all derived from the same Tomb Whisperer Manual. “However, there’s an old saying among them-a

treasure seeker never touches gold and doesn’t show his head at the crowing of a rooster!

“They don’t involve themselves in tomb raiding, so we don’t need to worry about them,”

Bradley patiently explained.

Everyone chatted among themselves.

Meanwhile, Nash sat on the bed, making a video call to Hera.

Recognizing the time and place, the others returned to their rooms.

Hera had just arrived in Jonford and told Nash about the day’s events with the Mares.

“I never thought my uncle would arrange for martial artists to assassinate us. Even when we presented the

recording, he denied everything. He’s utterly shameless!”

“After I’m done with my current task, I’ll take you to the Mares’ to settle things!” Nash assured her with a smile.

“When are you coming back?”

“In about ten days or so.”

“That long?” Hera sounded disappointed.
