After this mission is over, I might even become a permanent member of Brother Rast's team.

With such a feeling, Gray's eyes also flickered with joy.

She took out an ordinary-looking copper key from her bosom and reached towards the door.

Gray does not have the key to the treasure house in Paradise, and even with the identity of Last, she does not have the right opportunity to make the corresponding request.

Moreover, as a treasure house that can only be opened by Her Majesty the Queen... although it looks like just an ordinary door, no one can be sure whether the means of opening it is a physical object like a key, or the trigger of other extraordinary powers.

but--

The extraordinary item "Master Key".

Below a certain level, one can open anything that has concepts like "door", "shackles", or "seal".

This is the reserve of the "Watchtower".

As an organization that has existed for an entire era, the Shore Guardians have accumulated a vast amount of extraordinary materials and props.

For the "Lost Paradise" plan, before this operation, Leader Cessel had ordered that these extraordinary items be made available to team members unconditionally.

Click.

The brass key was inserted into the lock.

Then, the door lock made a crisp sound.

Then it unlocks silently and rotates.

Gray gently gripped the door handle to prevent the creaking sound of the door from opening and alerting others in the palace.

She took a deep breath and pushed the door open.

however--

Inside the door, however, was not what Grey had expected, the treasure house filled with countless precious jewels, gold items, and curios.

Instead, it is an extremely spacious metal space with a cold and hard steel outer wall, but an empty interior.

what happened?

The information that Brother Last passed back was wrong. Behind this door is not the treasure house of Paradise and the "Relics of Death".

Or--

There are some mechanisms in this room that even Brother Rast has never discovered.

Only by opening those mechanisms will the real treasure house appear?

Countless speculations arose in Gray's mind.

However, the next moment.

But she heard a cold female voice coming from the shadow of the steel space.

"Should I say, he truly deserves to be the consort personally chosen by Her Majesty the Queen..."

"I originally just made preparations for the purpose of preventing any disaster, but I didn't expect that the note Mr. Last reminded me would actually come true."

"There really is a little mouse lurking in the shadows, trying to steal treasures from the palace while Her Majesty the Queen is out on a date with Mr. Lust."

A serious-looking woman stepped out from the shadows.

Gray recognized the other person's origin.

That was the person mentioned in the information passed on by Luster's brother - Anna, the "Head Maid of the Underworld".

But according to the information, the head maid should be on leave during her shift.

As her thoughts raced, Gray saw the other party wave his hand gently.

The next moment.

boom--

The heavy steel door crashed down behind Gray.

Chapter 119 He Betrayed the Shore Guardian (12W)

A note to remind her?

So, the head maid is saying... that it was Brother Rast who tipped her off and told her that he was about to infiltrate?

Gray couldn't help but be stunned for a moment as she heard the cold words echoing in the room.

Brother Rast, he betrayed the shore watchman?

Such a thought was fleeting and was quickly forced out of Gray's mind.

These are just words used by the enemy to deceive himself.

If such a casual remark could make me waver, then I am not worthy of being a member of the shore guards, let alone a companion of Brother Last.

As her mind raced, a vague premonition suddenly emerged in Gray's heart.

That was a revelation from "fate".

So, following this premonition in her heart, Gray's figure suddenly jumped up without any warning and rushed towards the iron gate she had entered before.

The next moment, the place where she was previously was pierced through the ground by a chain surging with the glow of dusk, accompanied by a loud bang.

Level 6

Feeling the power fluctuations coming from behind, Gray also made a judgment in her heart.

Although in name, Anna was only the head maid in this palace.

However, as a maid who had served her mother, the former Queen of the Underworld, long before Helen was born... Anna's status was far more than the title of "Head Maid" could describe.

As one of the first citizens of Paradise to be granted eternal blessings, within this palace, the head maid even possesses the power to mobilize the twilight realm to a certain extent, and can exert power comparable to that of the sixth level.

This is all the information passed on by Brother Last, and it is exactly the same as the current situation.

However, looking at it this way...it turns out that what Anna said before was just a lie to deceive me.

If Brother Rast really betrayed the Shore Watchers, how could he have passed on all the information, including Anna's true combat power?

Even though she was in danger, Gray felt a sigh of relief in her heart.

The chain fell beside her again, but was once again avoided by Gray with a hair's breadth of difference.

One side is at level six, while the other side's level is no more than level two... In an ordinary battle between extraordinary people, this should have been a match without suspense. The latter would be killed instantly by the former without even a second of struggle.

However, following the vague premonition in her heart, Gray narrowly avoided the dim chains that attacked her and successfully reached the entrance.

This is the terrifying thing about the long sequence of "fate".

It is possible to ignore the huge gap in rank and directly modify the future trajectory in this mysterious way.

She took out the "master key" from her bosom again and stretched it towards the falling steel door.

However, the crisp click of the door lock opening did not sound as Gray expected.

"It was the power of the Twilight Restriction. The other party applied it to the steel door, exceeding the range of the master key's effectiveness."

The shadow servant's hurried voice rang in Gray's ears.

"Regardless of whether what she said is true or not, whether Captain Last actually betrayed..."

"But it's also true that they, through some unknown means, were aware of our plan to steal the Reaper's Relic and set a trap in advance."

"Under these circumstances, the final phase of the Lost Paradise plan must be aborted and the emergency evacuation plan implemented."

"Little Gray, find a way to deal with them. I will forcibly break through the barrier surrounding the palace and help you evacuate."

"She only managed to reach the sixth level with borrowed strength... As long as the Queen of the Underworld is not around, a mere head maid can't stop me."

Listening to the vice-captain's instructions, Gray nodded seriously.

Of course, she didn't believe that Brother Rast had really betrayed the shore guards and leaked the plan.

However, Gray also had no idea how the head maid Anna discovered her... She even set a trap in advance.

The only explanation is that the other party had already seen through everything the shore guard team had planned long before he sneaked in.

Thinking about it this way—didn't it mean that Brother Luster's identity had already been exposed long ago? It was just that the ruler of the underworld had kept it hidden in order to lure the snake out of its hole.

Besides, unlike me who had the vice-captain to help us evacuate, Brother Last was completely isolated and helpless...

And what he had to face was the furious queen who knew everything.

Countless complicated thoughts surged in Gray's mind, including confusion and doubts about her plan being seen through, and worry about the safety of her brother Rast.

But Gray still forced herself to cheer up, and following the vague premonition in her heart, she once again avoided a dim chain that was piercing through her.

Her spirit became active, connecting directly to the astral realm, that wisp of spirituality that seemed to exist and not exist...

Then, follow the thread called "fate" to peek into the direction of the future.

As long as he could hold out from the head maid and hold on until the deputy captain broke through the restriction and evacuated him from the palace.

By then, the vice-captain will be able to free up his hands and go help Brother Last...

With such a belief——

In a flash, Gray suddenly felt that her spirit was closer to the great power called "destiny" hidden deep in her soul.

Revelations from the astral world, spiritual premonitions...

Those vague and indeterminate signs that were originally in Gray's eyes...now turned into tangible light and shadows and images, directly appearing in the depths of her soul.

No acting, no training, no life-or-death battles—

At this moment, Gray's "destiny" sequence broke through without any warning and reached a higher level.

The flow of time, the trajectory of fate... everything became clear before Gray's eyes.

Her emerald green eyes suddenly flashed with silver light, as if dark silver was flowing in them.

It is no longer just a few words of revelation or a hazy and vague premonition.

Rather, he could clearly see the future that had not yet happened a few seconds later.

This is true "future vision."

With the help of "Future Vision", Gray's dodging movements became much smoother, and each movement left ample room for maneuver.

Even the head maid Anna looked surprised.

She obviously did not expect that this extremely weak thief could escape from her hands time and time again.

If we continue to maintain the status quo like this, it shouldn't be a problem to hold on until the vice-captain breaks through the restriction.

Such thoughts could not help but emerge in Gray's mind.

however--

The next moment.

Deep within Gray's soul, the "future vision" transmitted from the astral realm suddenly froze.

The silver light in her eyes shattered without warning, revealing her original fragile pupils.

The flowing time, the clear trajectory of fate, fragments of the future... everything disappeared.

It was as if something had abruptly cut off the original trajectory of fate, leaving only pure nothingness.

Gray's face turned extremely pale, without a trace of blood left, and tears of blood flowed from her eyes...

This was the backlash of peeping into fate, causing her soul and mental strength to suffer severe damage in an instant.

But what made Gray even more uneasy than the pain that seemed to tear her soul apart was the vague premonition before the backlash came.

It's like——

It's like something terrible is about to happen.

……

"Sure enough, the remains of the Grim Reaper are not here."

Unexpected.

A dull sound echoed in this metallic space.

He was an old man who looked like a gardener, wearing a pure white robe with a tombstone-like pattern painted on it, and green branches lingering around him.
