C5 Orphanage

"You mean there's some secret in the orphanage?"

"Don't even think about it. Orphan Principal Michael is a level 20 mage. Do you want to die?" The man in black gave the man next to him a good rap on the head, sighed, and went on: "It's all right if we don't take the ten guineas."

"Yes! Big Brother!" Everyone obediently stopped asking questions and continued to explore Devil Forest.

When Morna Garland heard their conversation, although she did not know the whole story, she could already smell the conspiracy. She thought that Edward was going on another mission, so she asked directly, "Edward, what is this mission, and what is the reward?"

Edward could see that Morna Garland had already figured out the way.

"Mission Tip: Sneak into the orphanage and expose the conspiracy of the orphanage. Reward: 100 gold coins and a set of white equipment for warriors."

"Can you give me more things?" She felt that 100 gold coins was too little, but what did a set of Warrior equipment mean? She didn't need it herself, so why would she keep it for decoration?

"Stop bargaining with me. It's good enough that I have something to give you," Edward said in disdain.

The most important thing now was to leave Devil Forest first, then go to Mellan. The flight alone took Morna Garland an hour. One could only imagine how big Devil Forest was, and she was only staying outside. It was said that there were some extremely high level Devil Beasts in Devil Forest, and any one of them was enough to cover the sky and cover the sun.

After leaving the border of Devil Forest, one could see the towering city walls of Mellan. In order to defend against the ignorant Devil Beasts, he ran out of Devil Forest. Thus, the city walls became a means for the people of Mellan to protect themselves. The extremely thick city walls were enough to withstand large-scale beast tide activities.

Mellan was connected to Devil Forest and the territory of the Black Moon Dynasty. It could be considered an economic hub, and it was also because of this that Brother Yang was very strict with people who came and went. Morna Garland observed that everyone who entered the Mellan had to be inspected. The brave only needed to show their badge to enter.

As for the ordinary people, they needed to go through a series of inspections to ensure that they were safe before they could enter.

Morna Garland had to rub a handful of dust off her face and pretend she didn't know anything as she followed the line of people for inspection.

The people around her despised Morna Garland. After all, she looked dirty and unpleasant.

When Morna Garland saw that there was an instrument that could scan levels and professions, she panicked a little when it was her turn. If others knew that she was level 120, wouldn't this place be in chaos?

"Edward, what should we do?"

"This thing can't be detected. I just need to shield it a little," Edward said casually.

Morna Garland heaved a sigh of relief and swaggered for the soldiers to search her.

Morna Garland was delighted when the soldier looked her up and down and saw that she looked very similar to the portrait on the door.

This made Morna Garland's hair stand on end.

"Hey, hey, idiot? The orphanage has been looking for you everywhere. They even said that you ran into Devil Forest and died."

Another soldier said, "Quickly inform the higher-ups and bring her back."

After all, the orphanage had put up a bounty of two gold coins to find her.

Originally, she was thinking of a way to enter the orphanage, but she did not expect the orphanage to be looking for her. According to the two soldiers, this body was a fool. Originally, it had parents in Mellan. The parents were two Level-5 Bravehearts, but they died in Devil Forest. The orphanage had no choice but to take her in, but in the end, she quietly ran out by herself. It had been more than half a month, and she thought that she had died outside.

Speaking of which, this girl's experience made one sigh. However, the orphanage was actually so generous that they were willing to spend 2 gold coins to find her?

Gold coins were the largest currency in the Zelaram Continent. One gold coin could be exchanged for 100 silver coins, and one silver coin could be exchanged for 10 copper coins.

Edward said that one gold coin was equivalent to a thousand dollars in her previous world. How much could one buy in that world?

In this world, there was always courage under heavy money. Without a perfect legal system, killing and robbing were common.

As they passed by the streets of Mellan, they saw all kinds of people living there. Even the businessmen were people with a professional level. The rest should be adventurers. On the left and right side of the shops, the vendors and hawkers were shouting very loudly, looking very prosperous.

The birth of the orphanage was due to the death of a family of adventurers, leaving only young children behind. The man named Michael established the orphanage and raised these children through his connections in the empire. Every year, he sent some talented children to the imperial army.

The orphanage must have benefited a great deal from the Empire.

The orphanage was a large building, and the door alone was luxurious compared to the building next to it. When he heard that he had found the silly girl, Michael personally stood at the door to greet her.

"Occupation: Mage

Level: 15" Edward turned on the smart voice broadcast.

Michael was an old man wearing a black mage robe. His long and narrow eyes made him look like a bad person.

Michael casually threw two gold coins to the soldier and said to Morna Garland in a low voice, "Come with me."

Morna Garland wanted to pretend to be a fool, but she wasn't a performer. The only way was to speak less so that others wouldn't notice.

"You are really lucky to be able to come out of Devil Forest. But it's just as well." Michael let out a terrifying laugh. Only a fool like her would allow Michael to act like he was who he was.

Morna Garland was a little scared. He was obviously a lunatic, but she still had to pretend that she didn't know anything.

Michael looked at Morna Garland's lifeless eyes and turned around with satisfaction. He walked slowly with his hands behind his back.

He followed Michael into the orphanage. There were many five or six-year-old children inside. A young man walked over and respectfully said to Michael, "Principal, you're back."

"Cole, take the silly girl back and pack her up. Don't scare the other children." With that, Michael left.

The Cole in front of him did not have the slightest bit of magic on him. He was definitely an ordinary person. However, his phoenix eyes were really enchanting. Morna Garland loved those eyes. They could suck a girl's soul away in an instant.

Facing this kind of fool, Cole did not show much hostility. Instead, he said gently, "From now on, you can stay here. Although you don't have much freedom, I can always feed you three meals a day."

Morna Garland guessed that Cole must know something, and she could tell that he was very close to Michael.

Leaving Michael, Morna Garland followed Cole and was taken away by a few old women to clean up. These women were veterans in the orphanage, and they had always been in charge of the children's lives. On the surface, they were smiling, but no one knew what they were thinking.

Morna Garland's every move was made with extreme caution.

At night, Morna Garland was arranged to stay in the dormitory, where the girls, especially young, stared at a simple face. Morna Garland was just an older sister inside.

The children all had tragic memories, but in this comfortable orphanage, they had long forgotten who they were. They were like frogs boiled in warm water, defenseless against danger.

The children slept early at night, and Morna Garland quietly slipped out of the dormitory. Ever since she had become a Level 120 Supreme Support, she could become a god without being hungry or sleepy.

The night sky was not that dark. The light of the waning moon enveloped the entire orphanage. When the night was dark and the wind was high, it was suitable for her to quietly go out.

"Edward, do you think there are any treasures in the orphanage? In TV dramas, the protagonist should not amass money at this time."

Edward sneered, "What are you thinking about every day? Isn't it good to live well? Let me tell you something. Kai is in this orphanage."

Edward wanted to ask about Kai, but he didn't expect Kai to be an orphan. His heart immediately softened a little. Although she didn't grow up in this era, she could still feel the situation.

The strong preyed on the weak. Those who could survive didn't have to go through all kinds of storms in the world.

"Then I will go and see what he is doing!" Morna Garland relied on her privilege to hide in the darkness, and no one could find her. Even if someone walked past her, that person would only feel a chill. He would not be able to see anything even if he turned his head around a few times.

Morna Garland walked straight down a road. On her way here, she observed the layout of the orphanage. The girls' dormitory was on the north side, and the boys' dormitory was on the south side.

Morna Garland was lucky enough to meet Kai, who was sneaking around. Kai sneaked out of the door and went to the fake mountain behind the male dormitory. In the middle of the night, there must be some kind of secret.

Ever since he fell off the cliff that day, Kai thought that he would really leave this beautiful world. But when he opened his eyes and woke up, he found himself lying on a fake mountain behind the male dormitory. He began to wonder if he was dreaming. However, the Spiritual Plant in his pocket told him that he was not dreaming.

He wasn't thinking carefully about the reason. Perhaps he had accidentally knocked over some mysterious spatial formation and then accidentally returned to the orphanage.

However, the Spiritual Plant was not an ordinary thing. It could indeed turn an ordinary person into a magical person. However, it was too dangerous in the orphanage. If something strange happened after eating the Spiritual Plant, it would very likely lead to the disaster of killing. He was considered one of the oldest in the orphanage. Many of his companions who came to the orphanage in the same batch had disappeared for some reason because of his magic. They said that they were working for the kingdom, but some of them went to the army of the kingdom. However, some of them had no reason.
