Chapter 334 - Meeting in a Dream

Lex was stunned for a moment, then understood that this was information about Morse Abraham, given to him by The Hanged Man through The Fool.

He opened the paper bag and found photos and documents inside, as expected.

Additionally, there was a thick stack of pounds.

1500 pounds!

The Hanged Man had sent the pounds as well, so Lex's cash on hand was finally a bit more substantial.

After returning to the hotel, Lex summoned the spirit world treasure chest, kept 500 pounds for himself, and threw the remaining 1000 pounds into the chest, bringing the total in the chest to 3300 pounds.

Lex then took out the Seer coin and ended the summoning.

After putting away the coin, Lex took out the documents sent by The Hanged Man and began to read them.

According to the information provided by Alger, Morse Abraham was indeed on Sonia Island.

The accompanying photos showed Morse enjoying lunch with someone.

In this scene, all the decorations had the style of Sonia Island.

Additionally, The Hanged Man pointed out that there might be members of the Rose School of Thought among Morse's friends.

However, this still needed further confirmation, and he stated that if there was an opportunity, he would try to capture Morse, but he couldn't guarantee success.

After reading the documents, Lex burned the photos and a few pages of information.

He took off his cloak, took a shower, and then lay down on the bed.

Looking at the ceiling, Lex's thoughts raced.

Morse was actually with the Rose School of Thought?

This meant his departure was likely related to the Rose School of Thought.

Was the Rose School of Thought interested in Abraham's Sealed Artifact named clarence's gate?

Considering that Abraham mastered the 'Apprentice' pathway, and the most impressive aspect of the Apprentice pathway was their ability to open 'doors' from anywhere, that Sealed Artifact's ability should be related to Teleport.

The question was, what did the Rose School of Thought intend to do with this Sealed Artifact?

Lex got up from the bed, spread out a letter, and wrote a letter to his mother, including The Hanged Man's discovery.

Then he blew the metal flute, summoned Osweld's messenger, and spent 1 pound to have it deliver the letter to Enki Town.

The next day, Lex had just finished washing up and hadn't even gone out for a meal when he heard a knock at the door.

He thought it was the messenger returning, but listening closely, the sound didn't feel illusory.

So he picked up 'Devil May Cry', opened the door, and saw 'Blazing' Danitz standing in the hallway outside the door.

"Can I come in?" The Boatswain of the Golden Dream looked into Lex's room and then said in a slightly mocking tone, "The great Adventurer who treats everyone to drinks lives in a place like this?"

"As long as one is rich in spirit, any place is a mansion," Lex stepped aside, motioning for Danitz to enter, then shot him a look full of 'suspicion'.

What was he suspecting?

Wait...

Was he suspecting whether I understood what he just said?

This scoundrel is really underestimating people!

"So, a well-known pirate with a 3000 pound bounty, coming to find me first thing in the morning, shouldn't be to give me money, right?" Lex wasn't surprised that Danitz could accurately find his lodging; if he couldn't, that would be something to suspect.

Danitz chuckled and said, "Your bounty from the Blood Admiral is about the same as mine, so don't be naive like a child, okay?"

Lex smiled and looked at him: "How long did it take you to raise your bounty to 3000 pounds?"

Danitz paused, then thought hard.

Lex held up two fingers: "I used two weeks, and next week, my bounty from Senor will rise even higher, if he's still alive next week."

Danitz looked at the young Adventurer in front of him in astonishment, wondering where his confidence came from.

"Alright, tell me.

How does your captain plan to meet me?" Lex said, spreading his hands.

Danitz took a breath and deliberately said, "Why do you think our captain will definitely meet you? Who do you think you are? Are you that important?"

Lex shrugged and pointed at the door: "Then please leave.

I'm not interested in being cooped up in the same room with a man."

Danitz cursed under his breath: "Damn it, if it weren't for the captain's request, who would want to meet a guy like you."

"Hehe, just kidding.

What, are you angry?"

Danitz clenched his fist and coughed dryly: "I'll tell you some good news, our captain plans to meet you.

Isn't that surprising?

You're really lucky; Admirally speaking, our captain doesn't just meet anyone."

Lex asked concisely: "What time, what place?"

"Now, right here!" Danitz pointed to the ground.

Lex looked around, but found no suspicious figures.

Danitz chuckled: "The captain won't meet you in reality.

By the way, can you 'Enter Dream'?"

Lex glanced at the black gemstone ring on his pinky finger and nodded: "So, your captain plans to meet me in a dream?

You need me to Enter Dream, which means I'll be entering your dream, and your captain will meet me there?"

Danitz gave a dry laugh: "Otherwise, why would I be looking for you?"

"Since you can Enter Dream, that saves us a 'Dream Charm'," Danitz was about to sit down on the bed, "I hope your bed is comfortable for me."

Lex propped him up with the scabbard of 'Devil May Cry'.

"You don't necessarily have to lie on the bed to sleep; the sofa works too," He looked at the single sofa placed in the corner.

"Damn it!" Danitz cursed lowly and walked reluctantly towards the sofa.

As soon as he sat down, he heard Lex say with a chuckle, "Are you secretly in love with Iceberg Admiral?"

Danitz immediately jumped up, his face burning, and he stammered incoherently: "Nonsense, the captain isn't secretly in love with me.

No, wait..."

Lex chuckled twice and didn't continue.

After a while, Danitz controlled his emotions, glared at Lex, and sat back down on the sofa.

He pulled out a bottle, unscrewed the cap, and then held it to his nose, taking a deep breath.

After putting the bottle back, Danitz tried to relax his body, and soon, he began to snore.

He started dreaming, dreaming that he was back on the Golden Dream, dreaming that he was drinking beer and bragging with the pirates on the ship.

Then a lady walked over, with an oval face, a high nose bridge, thin lips, and eyes like clear, light blue spring water.

Her brown hair was parted in the middle, tied in a simple but elegant knot at the back of her head, allowing the rest of her hair to fall smoothly.

She wasn't wearing a hat and wore a light-colored, fitted jacket paired with a dark, knee-length skirt, and leather boots similar in color to her hair.

When he saw her, the previously somewhat blurry surroundings became clear, and then the scene of the Golden Dream disappeared, replaced by the sea-view single room of the 'Azure Wind' Hotel.

At the same time, Danitz realized that he was dreaming.
