Chapter 423 The Easygoing Morton

Chapter 423 The Easygoing Morton

This kind of ghost orchid is more in line with Yaro's wishes.

Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, Yarrow does not want to clash with Morton here.

Thirty-six ghost orchids?

Morton glanced at the ghost orchids that Yaro had pointed to and immediately noticed the blood-red veins flowing on them. "You have a good eye. These ghost orchids are already mature and will bear fruit soon... In that case, I'll just take the liberty and give them to you..."

"I don't want any fruit, I just want these thirty-six ghost orchids!"

Yaro added, "These thirty-six ghost orchids are a result of your mistakes, so I only want them! It's reasonable to use the result of your mistakes to make up for the losses I suffered because of them... isn't it?"

"By the way, thank you very much for your previous guidance. I hope that when these thirty-six ghost orchids are delivered to me, they will still have their underground stems intact. I want thirty-six living flowers, not broken petals."

Morton remained silent.

As he fell silent, the guards around him subtly tightened their grip on their weapons.

Yaro felt a little uneasy.

As we can see from what just happened, Morton is able to control 'Pastoral Melody', and fighting him in this Ghost Orchid Garden is not a wise choice.

"There's no other way but to unleash the magic again!"

Yaro made a silent decision, keeping a close eye on Morton. If Morton made any unusual move, he would immediately activate the abyssal runes hidden in his metal boots.

“Haha, my little brother, that’s certainly reasonable and worth having,” Morton suddenly laughed.

"You agreed?" Yaro couldn't believe that he would agree so readily.

According to the information provided by the system, he has never been a good person.

Could it be... that there are other people with the same name?
It seems that in Western civilization, it is common for families to have people with the same name?

So, is the other Morton the real murderer?

A handsome and friendly appearance is indeed very deceptive, and even Yarrow couldn't help but have doubts.

Otherwise, logically speaking, someone who is in charge of the Ghost Orchid Garden, can control the secret treasures in the garden, and is also called Morton... has a very clear logical thinking and can be directly identified.

It's like this: if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it is a duck.

"Of course, it's not a big deal."

Morton chuckled nonchalantly, "Look back, this whole mountain is covered in ghost orchids. What are a mere thirty-six flowers?"

His calm words made his exquisite face appear even more noble.

Yaro felt a surge of goodwill: "Thank you, Brother Morton."

He called out "Big Brother" with exceptional fluency.

"No need to thank me. We were the ones who made the mistake. We hope you won't let this ruin your friendship with Ian."

Morton's words were full of sincerity. Although Yaro still believed that he was the mission target, he was already thinking that when he met Ian, he would quietly ask if there were any other people in Ian's family who were also named Morton.

The fact that he needed confirmation to feel completely at ease already demonstrates the extent of Yaro's affection for him.

"By the way, thirty-six Ghost Orchids are not easy to transplant. Do you need me to send someone to deliver them to you? Or should I prepare them for you and take them out with you when you come back from your visit?" Morton asked considerately.

To ensure the survival of the Ghost Orchid, it is naturally impossible to recklessly tie them together.

Moreover, in order to maintain its activity, it cannot be placed in a spatial ring, and the journey back requires passing through the long Crocodile Valley. How to transport it back is indeed a troublesome matter.

Thinking about this, Yaro couldn't help but feel a little worried.

If I agree... I don't quite trust them, and I don't want to reveal my whereabouts. If I don't agree, transportation is indeed a problem.

After much deliberation, Yarrow could only offer a compromise: "Could you deliver it to Harvey's Alchemy Shop in Mannheim Market?"

"Of course, old man Parvati, did you hear that? This matter is entrusted to you."

Remember, don't dig up the wrong flowers... Start digging now.

Also, the item must be delivered personally… It's called Harvey, right? Yes, it's with the owner of this alchemy shop. Make sure he signs a receipt before you come back.”

Morton had taken care of all the issues that Yarrow might have considered, and even those he hadn't.

“By the way, young man… what’s your name?” Morton asked, turning around.

“Moon, my name is Moon,” Yaro said, revealing his pseudonym.

"Do you have any token? The kind of token that can convince that alchemist?"

If we're talking about tokens of trust, the Golden Phoenix Armor would be the most convincing for the alchemist, but Yaro couldn't possibly produce it, so he could only say, "It's alright, just tell him when you go that the portrait's owner left it here."

"Portrait? Did you leave any sculptures with him?" Morton joked.

"Pretty much. Just tell him that, and he'll naturally understand." Yaro didn't elaborate further.

“Lord Morton, Mr. Yue, I understand.” The old man nodded and immediately directed the other guards to begin excavating the Ghost Orchid.

Yaro took a second look and confirmed that they were indeed the ghostly orchids possessed by the 'Thirty-Eight Yan Yun Riders'.

But things were going so smoothly that Yaro felt it was all a little unreal.

He glanced at the handsome young man waiting beside him, hesitated for a moment, and then said:

"Brother Morton, is something wrong?"

Whether it's good or bad, there's no need to be this enthusiastic, is there?

Morton chuckled upon hearing this: "Even if I had something to do, I wouldn't come to you. Since you're Ian's friend, you're my friend too. Don't worry, go have some fun with Ian."

Thinking about it carefully, it does seem to make some sense.

If it weren't for the system task, Yaro might have actually believed it.

But whether he believed it or not, Morton wouldn't explain why, and Yarrow couldn't guess his thoughts, so he could only go along with him and ask:

“What’s wrong with Ian? I arranged to meet him at the Mannheim market yesterday, but he didn’t show up, so I came to find him today.”

“Ian…”

Morton was about to say something, but when he saw the garden guards around them, he suddenly stopped and said, "Let's talk as we walk. You can leave things here to old man Parvati. He's sensible, so you don't need to worry."

Yaro nodded: "That works too."

Since we can't deliver it ourselves, and it's such a long way, there's no way to prevent them from tampering with it. It's better to be open about it.

As long as Ian and Morton are kept in check, their servants won't dare to do anything too outrageous.

Morton led the way: "This way, I've prepared a carriage in advance. There are some things I'll tell you in the carriage."

"You're going too?" Yarrow asked, somewhat surprised. "Don't you have to stay and watch over the garden?"

“It’s not far to go, it won’t cause any trouble. Besides… Ian’s situation is a bit complicated. If I don’t go, you might not be able to see him.”
