After listening to this, Morton and Xili sat in their seats in silence for a long time.
Calvin and Pascal didn't look like they were lying, and they had even sworn an oath to the God of Mist, so it couldn't be an excuse for their failure.
Morton and the Xili people thought about it carefully and found that there was a high possibility that the Bluebird Territory had planted spies in the tribe that Caius mentioned.
"So what do you mean, Caius?" Xili asked, realizing the seriousness of the situation.
Caius glanced at the man and said.
"Hey guys, only a few people know about this, and you two are among them. Tell me...how can I trust you?"
Upon hearing this, Morton slammed the table and stood up. "Caius, what do you mean? Are you doubting us?"
"Our three tribes have always ruled the Nighthawk Tribe together. If you wanted to rebel, you would have done it long ago! Why would you resort to such sneaky activities?"
Xili also looked at Caius with a gloomy expression.
Caius said, "I know that, but... it's not like there haven't been people in the Candlelight Camp who rebelled against me before. How can I be sure that you guys are that kind of people?"
Xili asked in a deep voice, "Then how do you want us to prove ourselves?"
"Search the body, search the magic device, search the room."
"If you don't have anything related to the Candlelight Camp, then I can trust you." Caius said.
Morton sneered, "Oh, even if we really were secretly communicating with the Bluebird Territory, I'm afraid we'd have already hidden the means of communication."
"How can you find it?" Morton was very dissatisfied with Caius and said angrily.
Upon hearing this, Caius, who was already suspicious, immediately narrowed his eyes and looked at Morton.
"You admit it?"
"I admit it," Morton cursed.
"Go ahead and look for it. If you can't find it, I'm going to settle the score with you today."
After saying that, Morton threw his magic device onto the table.
After thinking for a moment, Xili also put her magic device on the table and let Caius check it.
Caius reached out, took the man's magic device, and examined it.
As the patriarchs of their clan, Morton and Xili had many treasures in their magic devices, which made Caius envious.
But for the sake of harmony within the clan, Caius suppressed the throbbing in his heart and stopped himself from thinking about those treasures.
After a long time, Caius checked the man's magic device and threw it to him.
"I overthought it, everyone. I'm sorry, but your room still needs to be checked by the tribe later."
Morton took his magic device and snorted, "Hmph, you've checked ours, what about yours?"
"Shall we check it out too?"
Caius frowned. How could he, the leader of the Nighthawk Tribe, betray the Nighthawk Tribe? But seeing the man's appearance, he knew that the man was angry, so he took off his magic device from his waist and threw it to Morton.
Then he spoke to Calvin and Pascal beside him.
"You have returned from the Bluebird Territory. This time, it is your turn to search the rooms of the two clan leaders."
"Yes, sir." Kevin and Pascal nodded and walked out of the conference room.
Soon, Calvin and Pascal came to Morton's room. After a careful search, they did not notice the "letter" on the bookshelf prepared by Ryan.
This made Ryan, who was hiding in the dark, twitch his mouth slightly, and he had to use subtle magic to pull the book off the bookshelf.
Just as Calvin and Pascal were about to leave, a book falling from the bookshelf caught their attention.
The two looked at each other and came to the fallen book. Looking at the letters scattered on the ground, the two picked up the letters and started to check them.
