Carlotta's Daily Report-Chapter 109: Banana

"Is this the so-called confidence of a Listener?"

Carlotta asked.

Amelia remained silent, slowly walking over, her eyes fixed on the stunned Mia.

Mia truly didn’t expect such a turn of events. Ves, a Listener, had looked down on these two girls, only to be subdued in such a short time.

This scene was too impactful, leaving Mia momentarily stunned.

Feeling the coldness on his neck, Ves couldn’t help but feel a sense of fear. He also didn’t expect things to turn out this way.

Why is it that an eighth-tier apprentice could launch such a fierce attack, making him unable to defend himself?

Now hearing Carlotta’s taunt, Ves couldn’t even muster a word of retort, his forehead breaking out in a cold sweat.

"Useless, kill him."

Amelia’s voice came.

A Listener, she couldn’t easily add him to her soldier list unless she became a Listener herself.

Hearing this, Ves’s face changed, and he quickly said, "Wait, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have disrespected you. I know a treasure site, and I’m willing to share it with you, just spare my life."

"Treasure site?"

Carlotta seemed somewhat interested, "What treasure site?"

Ves quickly said, "It’s a piece of information our Thorn Adventure Group spent a lot of money to obtain. It’s said that in a certain location on Sky Island, there are many treasures collected by someone who died unexpectedly, so the treasures are still there."

"If such a place exists, how could the person who found it just ignore it?"

"It’s said that the person who found the treasure site was about to collect the treasures, but their time on Sky Island ended, and they were ejected from the island, leaving no time to collect the treasures."

Ves details the story, describing the so-called treasure site as extremely rich, hoping to attract Carlotta’s attention.

Carlotta nodded, "So where is this treasure site?"

Ves forced a smile, "Spare my life, and I’ll take you to the treasure site. I know the exact location."

As long as this girl was interested in the treasure site, she would have to keep him by her side. Then he will have plenty of time to recover and find a chance to counterattack.

After all, only he knew the exact location of the treasure site. He could take a tour to buy more time.

He believed his defeat was due to his severe injuries. Once he recovers, the situation will be different.

Carlotta softened, "Tell me the general location."

General location?

Ves didn’t understand Carlotta’s meaning but pointed in a direction, indicating the general location.

Now he keeps his stance low, willing to lead the two to the treasure site.

Ves’s mind began to stir.

He could tell that Carlotta was truly interested in the treasure site, which secretly relieved him.

Carlotta continued to ask, "How much more do you know about that treasure site? Tell me everything."

Upon hearing this, Ves hurriedly began to speak.

Carlotta didn’t know whether Ves was telling the truth, but listening didn’t cost her anything. If it was true, then as long as she heard enough relevant information, she would certainly be able to see more accurate details about the treasure site in the intelligence.

As for keeping Ves by her side to guide them?

There was no need for that at all.

After listening to Ves talk about the treasure site for a while, and confirming that he couldn’t provide more information, Carlotta decisively slashed the Rose Cross and severed Ves’s head.

When Ves’s head hit the ground, a look of astonishment finally appeared on his face, completely unaware of why Carlotta had suddenly killed him.

Wasn’t she interested in the treasure site? Then why did she kill him?

With confusion and doubt, Ves bid farewell to the world.

Carlotta then turned to look at Mia.

Mia’s face was pale at this moment; the death of Ves had brought her a strong sense of oppression.

Seeing Carlotta staring at her, she hurriedly said, "I’m also a victim. He forced me to stay by his side because my Wave Magic can detect movements around us. He thought I was somewhat useful. I’m not on the same side as him."

What she said was true. When she saw Ves’s other side, she was also shocked and couldn’t recover for a long time.

But she was worried that Carlotta and Amelia wouldn’t believe her, so she added, "Really, I have nothing left on me, not even a single Fiel. He took everything."

Carlotta glanced to Amelia and said, "Amelia, I leave this person to you."

"Alright."

Amelia nodded.

She gave Carlotta a strange look, feeling that there was another layer of meaning behind Carlotta’s decision to hand this person over to her. Did Carlotta know she had a soldier list that could persuade people?

’Probably overthinking it. Maybe it’s because I handled the pirates before, so she’s used to letting me deal with people.’

Thinking this, Amelia felt it made sense.

She said to Mia, "Submit to us and serve us, or I won’t mind killing you."

"I am willing to submit."

Mia quickly knelt down.

Amelia sensed the soldier list in her mind and was surprised to find Mia’s name already appearing on it. This girl submitted too quickly, didn’t she?

But it wasn’t a bad thing. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

She had Mia stay aside and went back to grilling fish.

Carlotta searched Ves’s body but found only some Tur and the sword that had been knocked down earlier, which was a high-quality alchemical tool.

Ves had just entered Sky Island not long ago and hadn’t conducted any considerable exploration, so it wasn’t strange that nothing valuable was found on him.

Carlotta exclaimed, "Sky Island is indeed full of dangers. Even a Listener could perish shortly after entering."

Mia gave Carlotta a strange look.

Next, Carlotta and Amelia enjoyed a Tri-Colored Fish, each eating half, and it tasted quite good.

After eating, Carlotta also mentioned what she had planned to discuss with Amelia, expressing a preference for sleeping during the day and acting at night.

"Why is that?"

Amelia didn’t quite understand.

"Because I prefer the night."

Carlotta said with a smile.

Amelia didn’t believe Carlotta’s reason was that simple, but it wasn’t a big issue. After a little thought, she agreed.

Not far away, there was a mountain. Carlotta and Amelia went to this mountain, killed a monster in it, and occupied its lair.

After cleaning the lair with a Cleaning Card, the three of them rested there.

...

In the blink of an eye, night fell.

After waking up and completing her ablutions, Carlotta, along with Amelia and Mia, set out once again to explore Sky Island.

It wasn’t yet midnight, so the intelligence hadn’t arrived. Carlotta could only explore the surrounding area first.

Although it was night, the visibility on Sky Island was high because the moon overhead was very large, casting a crimson light that shrouded the vast Sky Island in a mysterious hue.

"Roar, roar, roar!"

The roars of monsters from various parts of Sky Island still rose and fell, not diminishing with the arrival of night.

Not long later, Carlotta and the others encounter a group of monsters.

They were Red-Eyed Demon Apes, active in the forest, each over two meters tall with brawny muscles. Swinging from branches, they quickly surrounded the trio.

Carlotta revised at Mia, "Your Wave Magic can detect the surroundings in advance, right? How come you didn’t detect these Red-Eyed Demon Apes coming?"

Mia was taken aback, "You didn’t ask me to check the surroundings."

Carlotta couldn’t help but facepalm.

She didn’t bother to say more, just reminded Mia to keep checking the surroundings from now on, then swung her sword and charged.

Although there were many Red-Eyed Demon Apes, they weren’t of a high tier, not even a single listener among them, so Carlotta wasn’t too worried.

Somehow, she had already set her sights on the level of Listeners; opponents below that level were no longer worth her attention.

In the forest, roars followed one after another, accompanied by screams. The crimson hue spread through the trees, and the cold wind carried a pungent smell of blood.

It didn’t take long for Carlotta and Amelia to slaughter the numerous Red-Eyed Demon Apes.

Mia finally brought information from her Wave Magic, pointing ahead, "There are dozens of life forms in that forest over there. Their aura is similar to the Red-Eyed Demon Apes around here; they should be Red-Eyed Demon Apes too."

Hearing this, Carlotta and Amelia couldn’t help but exchange glances.

Why didn’t those dozens of Red-Eyed Demon Apes join in to surround them? Did they think the others were enough? Or was there something else keeping them busy?

"Let’s check it out."

Carlotta made the decision immediately.

The three of them moved forward, passing through a stretch of forest, and another forest appeared before their eyes.

In this forest, many bananas hung from the trees, swaying, making it look like an orchard.

"Bananas... no, these are Magic Bananas."

Amelia, with her rich knowledge, immediately made the judgment, "Many delicacies and alchemical potions can use Magic Bananas. Although a single Magic Banana isn’t particularly valuable, there are many here."
