Garuru slept next to the white spider. Whenever it showed signs of waking up, he would go up and punch it to knock it out. In short, he just didn't let it make a fuss.

When Atlas woke up the next day, the white spider was still asleep, and Garuru stretched lazily and then punched it to ensure that it wouldn't wake up for a while.

Hmm...I kind of feel sorry for this spider...

Atlas took one look at the spider and started preparing breakfast.

With him in their group, they can have hot meals anytime and anywhere as long as they bring the ingredients. Therefore, this group only brought last night’s lunch, and the rest was given to the group that collected wood.

While he was cooking, others woke up one after another. Except for Seth, the kitchen killer, everyone else helped Atlas prepare breakfast.

Kaguya washed the vegetables and looked at Seth sitting leisurely aside, and said rather jealously.

"Your ability is so enviable."

Hearing this, Set teased Garuru and answered Kaguya with a smile.

"Then I'll help too? It's just washing vegetables, I..."

"No, just sit still."

Before Seth could finish speaking, Atlas interrupted him ruthlessly. By the way, he glared at Kaguya and threatened.

"The ingredients I brought are not enough to cause harm to Set, please be patient."

"cut."

Kaguya shrugged and stopped fussing, washing the vegetables obediently. He was just joking. Who else on this ship has not personally experienced Seth's destructive power?

Is it difficult to wash vegetables? It's certainly not difficult. But ever since he saw a tomato that Seth was cleaning dancing on his hand, Atlas would never let him touch vegetables again. At that time, he had been hypnotizing himself for a long time, but he still couldn't bear to cut open the tomato, so he finally asked Allen to plant it.

Regardless of Allen's expression at the time, Atlas would never let Seth enter the kitchen, lest he develop the misconception that he would become a butcher and kill vegetables every day.

After successfully finishing their normal breakfast, they started yesterday's discussion.

While discussing, Cecile suddenly had an idea.

"When I was traveling alone, I saw many nobles setting up basements for escape. Do you think there will be an emergency escape in such an underground research room?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone thought of this possibility.

With so many facilities built into this underground research room, it is impossible that there would be no emergency escape hatches. The emergency escape hatch will definitely be closest to the location of the researchers, because only in this way can we escape smoothly in critical moments.

Rather than fighting in from the entrance, it is better to lurk in through the escape hatch. This will not only avoid unnecessary battles, but also save a lot of time.

But this faces another problem. How to find the escape hatch?

Since it is a place used for escape, the researchers must be very secretive. It should be impossible to find it using normal methods, otherwise it would be impossible for this research laboratory to have not been found by the navy until now.

If normal methods don't work, you can only use abnormal methods to find it. Jerius was the unexpected surprise for these researchers.

However, although it could find an escape hatch hidden underground, it couldn't get too far away from Seth. Unlike Sylph, who was initially stable, Seth would not be able to withstand such a huge consumption of magic power if he wanted Jarius to explore the entire island without restriction.

Finally, they decided to take a boat around the entire island and let Jerius see if there was anything that looked like an escape hatch near the coast.

Summer Island is quite big, and it would take a day to go around it at the fastest speed. If you see something suspicious along the way, you have to get off the boat to investigate, which is conservatively estimated to take two days.

In order not to worry the group collecting wood, they decided to leave a letter explaining the situation. In fact, it would be fine to let Sylph stay here to tell Yaying and the others, but she was afraid that they would come back late and Sylph would have to return to Seth if they were out of distance.

So they made two preparations. The place where the envelope was hidden was specially marked so that Yaying and the others could find it. The other one asked Sylph to wait here until the distance was exceeded and then slowly come back.

The reason why they can't tell Yaying and the others now is because the group's first insect-killing battle yesterday was still within the range that Sylph could detect, but the second battle had already left this distance.

In other words, Sylph didn't know where they went.

After getting everything ready, they departed by boat, leaving Jerius on the coast to look for an escape hatch.

That evening, it was not until Sylph had to return to Seth that Yaying and the others were late. Looking at the empty seaside, they tilted their heads in confusion.

"Where did the boat go?"

"Could it be eaten by bugs?"

Hearing this, Hill looked at Leviathan and asked.

"is it possible?"

Leviathan shook his head decisively.

"Impossible. There are trees and leaves here. Why don't the insects eat them?"

"Then let's look for clues. If Seth and his friends drove away, they would definitely leave a letter telling us about the situation."

They all agreed with this and started looking around for some clues. Because the letter was not hidden so well, they found it successfully.

After reading the content of the letter, Yaying and the others fell silent.

……how to say? Destiny has to make them find fault with the organization, right? Can you encounter organizations hiding underground?

And are these researchers stupid? If you just sit there and do nothing, Seth won't find out, right? A typical scene where there are no three hundred taels of silver here. What does a good control spider do?

"Are we waiting here?"

"I want to get wood, so that I can save a lot of time when the time comes to build a boat."

Garuru was following them over there, and Leviathan, the brainless fanboy, wasn't worried about them at all. An An feels at ease and wants to stay here and polish the wood.

"what about you?"

Yaying and Hill were a little excited when they saw it. Did the two combatants feel that fighting bugs for two days was not enough and wanted to find someone to fight again?

But in the end they gave up on this tempting idea.

At this time, if Seth and the others were successful, they should have found the escape hatch and solved the problem. Even if they didn't find it, there was no way they could catch up with the other group on foot.

It's better to stay here and help Leviathan get wood. After all, one more person means more effort.

"I won't join in the fun. Let them handle it over there. Let's get wood together."

Hill also nodded in agreement with Yaying's statement. Anyway, I can’t keep up, so it’s better to help here.

Linda had already given Leviathan a tree and then took out the various tools he needed and put them aside. He sat aside and looked at Allen thoughtfully.

"what happened?"

Allen looked over in confusion, not knowing why she was looking at him like that.

"…I'm thinking…"

Linda frowned and thought for a while, hesitating whether to ask.

Judging from what the Shadow Phantom boss said at the time, Allen, as a person recognized by the boss of the killer headquarters, might have had access to some secrets.

For example...the construction drawings of various research laboratories...?
