News About Alice!

As Alvin and the young lady were sprinting ahead, suddenly an earth wall made of sharp spikes rose in front of them out of nowhere.

"You foolish girl, they've started attacking with magic. Just give the eggs back to them. If hundreds of them attack using earth spikes like this, you won't even be able to count the number of holes they'll make in your beautiful skin," Alvin shouted helplessly, as he evaded the earth wall and continued running forward.

The young lady also reinforced her body with a wind spell and effortlessly jumped over the wall like a fairy. She followed Alvin as though she were standing on a hoverboard.

Alvin's mouth twitched. "Since you're a wind magician, why don't you just fly away?"

The young lady pointed at the sky and said innocently, "Before I stole the egg from the earth dragon lizards, I got into some conflict with the mercenary group who agreed to help me secure the eggs. They're looking for me everywhere now."

When Alvin looked up, he saw more than fifty master-realm golden-crowned eagles circling in the sky. He also saw silhouettes of several people on top of those eagles.

Alvin squinted his eyes. He was extremely familiar with the leading eagle, which appeared larger than the others. Its name was Lilly, and she was Alice's mount. Lilly was also the reason Alice called her mercenary group "Eagles."

But right now, the person sitting on top of the eagle wasn't his sister, but another man Alvin was not familiar with.

"Voom... voom..." Suddenly, the sound of a strange horn rang out from the sky, and several earth spikes appeared around Alvin, trapping him and the young lady at the center.

Alvin stopped running. He stood there calmly, his gaze fixed on the descending eagles in the sky.

"What happened? Why did all of them stop all of a sudden?" the young lady asked Alvin when she saw the earth dragon lizards standing still around them like obedient soldiers. They no longer had the fierce aura from before.

"They weren't chasing you because you stole their egg, but because someone asked them to do so," Alvin said calmly.

He then threw the large axe toward the young lady, and it landed right in front of her. "You have a storage ring, right? Help me store it for a while. I'm still not certain about the whole situation here. Having a weapon in hand might be seen as a sign of provocation."

The young lady nodded. She held the handle of the huge axe with one hand, like how Alvin usually held it, but the next second, her expression changed. She couldn't even move the huge axe, which seemed like a boulder in her eyes.

In the end, without any expression, she used both her hands and somehow pulled the axe from the ground before putting it into her storage ring. "Seriously, you were running with this thing in your hand?"

Alvin ignored her and focused his eyes on the three-meter-long eagle that landed before him. The earth dragon lizards gave space for the eagles to land as though under the orders of someone.

An unfamiliar man could be seen sitting on top of the big eagle. All the other people on the eagles were acquaintances of Alvin, as he had seen them with his sister many times.

"Who are you? Why is Lilly with you?" Alvin asked coldly when he saw a handsome man in a red robe jumping down from the eagle.

"Oh, my name is William Phynic, the fourth son of the current emperor of Phynic Land. As for this eagle, it used to be the mount of one of my servants, but she accidentally died a year ago, so this thing has been with me ever since..." William said lazily.

"He is a royal member of Phynic Land. He's an even worse pervert than you. The number of women who were tortured to death under his hand would easily be over a dozen. This bastard even wanted to have his way with me once we entered the jungle. In the end, I ran away from the group..." the young lady whispered to Alvin as she looked at William while grinding her teeth.

Alvin didn't respond to any of them. He clenched his fist and called out, "Uncle Shawn, where is my big sister?"

When one of the middle-aged men heard Alvin's words, his expression changed. "Young... young master Alvin, you're alive?"

All the others who knew who Alvin was instantly tensed up when they heard what Shawn said.

"Don't make me repeat my words. Where is Alice?" Alvin raised his voice, but Shawn and the others just lowered their heads. None of them spoke up.

William sized up the boy, who was only wearing flower-patterned beach shorts, curiously. Looking at his subordinates' expressions, William could easily sense a different emotion from them apart from guilt. It was fear... his subordinates seemed to be afraid of the brat in front of him.

"Hey, Shawn, who is this brat?" William asked.

Shawn hesitated for a moment and said, "He is your servant Alice's younger brother."

Each word that came out of Shawn's mouth was like a needle being punched into Alvin's heart. His anger had already broken through the boiling point at this moment.

The blood in his body started pumping at twice the speed from before. His eyes slowly turned blood red in color, like that of a demon.

"Give my axe back. It seems it is necessary to do some cleaning here," Alvin said to the young lady icily.

The young lady didn't joke with Alvin anymore after seeing his murderous eyes and gave the axe back to him.

"I'm asking one last time. Where is Alice?" Alvin asked in a rough voice.

All the mercenaries who knew Alvin before started sweating when they saw Alvin's icy eyes, but William ignored this and said lazily, "Didn't I say before? Your sister was my slave. A year back, when two of my friends came to visit me, I asked her to entertain them, but she refused. In the end, I gave her a good beating before sending her to my friends' side. But who would have thought that she would simply cut her own neck to safeguard her dignity... tisk... tisk..."
