Chapter 2221 "I'm sorry. I can't answer that question because I don't know, either." Hank shook his head. He was already breaking the rules by telling them about the God King's involvement.
Furthermore, disclosing the God King's identity or whereabouts was out of the question.
In Dragonmarsh, even someone as powerful as the God King had to tread carefully. Any hint of their whereabouts, followed by an ambush from elites, would spell disaster.
"No problem. It's just a random question out of curiosity." Dustin simply shrugged it off with a faint smile.
"If there aren't any questions, how about we break for lunch? I've arranged a feast, and we can continue our conversation over food." Hank extended an invitation with a neutral expression.
"Sure." Dustin nodded.

Everyone was famished after waiting all morning. They immediately indulged in the feast laid out before them. Once they were full, Hank organized various entertainment to keep everyone occupied. Yet, he kept the mission timing vague and advised them all to stay on standby.
Dustin understood it was a precaution by the Hall of Gods against leaks.
After lunch, he cup with an excuse and left. He deemed the visit quite fruitful.
He had discovered the Hall of Gods' plan to infiltrate Sacred Wrym Summit's forbidden ground and beca spy in the process. He was prepared to adapt to unforeseen circumstances.
He also knew he couldn't take on the entire Hall of Gods team by himself. But he was ready to alert Sacred Wrym Summit if necessary and stopped the Hall of Gods' scheme.
Back at the tavern, Dustin was surprised to see someone inside. It was a woman with a pretty face but a strange presence.
"You're finally here?" he exclaimed in surprise.
As he assessed her appearance, he soon recognized who it was.
It was Grace, but she seemed different. She had changed her appearance again and assumed a different guise. If it weren't for his keen insight, he might not have recognized her.
"Oh? You figured it out fast? I was hoping to tease you a bit," she said with a faint smile. Then, she poured two cups of tea.
"Your appearance might change, but your vibe doesn't. Unless you can hide it, I can always tell." Dustin sat down and took a sip of tea. "So, how did it go? Are you finished with the task? Does the progress look promising?" Grace smiled and replied, "Despite a few setbacks, everything's been sorted out. The timing couldn't be better, and I won't miss the Combat Tournament." "Oh! What about that assassin I sent you? Is the beast transformation natural, or is it the result of elixirs?" he asked.
Predator's beast transformation ability was unnerving. It directly broke through three levels from a grandmaster martial artist to reach the level of an ultimate grandmaster.
Even for someone as knowledgeable as Dustin, encountering such an anomaly was unprecedented.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"It's still being analyzed, and I'm not certain of the details yet. But rest assured, I'll keep you updated," Grace assured him.
Equipped with a detailed report of that night's events, she promptly assembled a team of experts for a thorough investigation.
If Predator's beast transformation ability could be cultivated, it would be a groundbreaking discovery.
Moreover, if every soldier on the battlefield could access beast transformation through elixirs, it would lead to a massacre with one side dominating completely.
"This assassin is extremely valuable, and you have to keep an eye on him. It would be a huge loss if he had been rescued by others," he reminded.
"Don't worry. I've found a secure location. No one will discover it." She smiled.
"There's one more thing I need to discuss with you," Dustin said. "This morning, I saw people from the Hall of Gods. They're No Peopl Yre planning to break into the forbidden ground of Sacred Wrym Summit to search for treasures." "The Hall of Gods?" Grace raised her eyebrows.
She said, "These guys have never had good intentions. I anticipated they would cause trouble at the Combat Tournament, but I didn't expect their target to be the rare treasures within the forbidden ground."
"The news about the rare treasures has already spread, so it's not surprising that the Hall of Gods is taking action. Although we're unsure of when they'll strike, I estimate it will be within the next few days. How do you plan to handle this?" he asked.
