The Competition Begins

In the hotel.

Ryder had returned to his room.

Alina only obtained that bit of information, so he didn't stay any longer.

After Ryder left, Giles looked at Alina and asked, "Did you see the Dragon Blood Grass?"

Giles thought it best not to let Ryder know about Alina's illness. After all, they weren't considered friends.

Alina shook her head.

"Didn't you say that the Beast Tamer Association has prepared it for you?" Giles asked curiously.

"The Beast Tamer Association discovered it in the wilderness. However, it hadn't matured yet at that time, so they didn't dare to transplant it just in case they wouldn't be able to save it."

"Therefore, they sent some people to guard that place. However, those people were ambushed and killed two days ago. The Dragon Blood Grass was also dug out."

Alina's eyes darkened.

Giles understood. Many people would not be able to bear it when hope turns to despair.
