Chapter 174 If So, It Would Be Very Interesting!
The three of them didn't talk much about Brenda in the resting area.
Elizabeth asked, "With the 70,000 Veridiania currency prize, we don't have to work for the next three days to earn money. Let's just stay well, eat well, and have fun."
Raymond agreed wholeheartedly, "Great, we'll rely on your earnings for these three days. Aside from the remaining three days, we'll aim to win the game event prize, and then we can enjoy ourselves until the end of this variety show."
Gilbert laughed and said, "Choosing Elizabeth was the right choice!"
He and Marlon had originally signed two-day temporary guest contracts.
With Brenda injured, she wouldn't be able to continue participating in the live stream for the next few days.
So, another temporary guest they had arranged would take Brenda's place.
The director had just privately avoided the live stream to talk to him and Marlon.
The director informed them that their performance was good enough that they didn't have to leave early and could stay until the end of the variety show.
They would just need to sign another contract later.
Elizabeth asked the two, "So for the next three days, should we stay in one hotel or switch to different good hotels?"
Raymond said, "Let's switch. Our theme this time is to have fun, so we can let everyone experience different star-rated hotels in Veridiania."
Gilbert laughed and said, "I agree!"
Elizabeth chuckled. She agreed, "Alright, we'll do as you say."
She opened a mobile app and selected a few star-rated hotels, letting Raymond and Gilbert pick their three top choices.
Then she booked one day at each hotel.
The price was around four to five thousand Veridiania currency per night.
From the beginning, they had set the tone for this live stream with a "fun" theme.
It was all about high-end travel, letting most viewers experience it together with them.
Nancy's group was the opposite, going for budget travel.
The money they earned from working would be used to plan cost-effective food and accommodation, giving viewers that alternative experience.
The two different experiences made many viewers either open two live streams at the same time or switch between them frequently.
Both were quite interesting.
However, since many other live streams were about budget travel, more viewers were interested in high-end travel.
Combined with their popularity, Elizabeth's group's live stream room had several times more viewers than Nancy's group's.
Meanwhile, from Brenda's group, because Brenda was taken to the hospital, apart from her concerned fans and the other three's fans, most viewers had shifted to the other two live stream rooms.
Now their viewership had dropped from second place to the bottom.
After booking the hotels, Elizabeth and the two of them discussed where to have dinner.
After some searching, they decided to dine at a Michelin restaurant that evening.
Elizabeth sent the restaurant's name and location in the group chat and arranged a time with Nancy's group.
Then she and the two of them took a cab to the booked hotel.
Today's task checkpoint was a local seaside lighthouse, which was more suitable for evening visits.
They planned to rest at the hotel for a while, then grab some coffee.
After that, they would go to the restaurant for dinner and finally complete the checkpoint task with the other group.
Elizabeth, Raymond, and Gilbert walked into the hotel.
In the lobby, they saw Percy and a pale-faced man checking in.
Elizabeth thought, as expected, she did run into him.She didn't believe it was just a coincidence.
Percy must have watched the live stream and deliberately chose the same hotel.
When Elizabeth saw Percy, her expression neutral, revealing nothing of her thoughts.
Percy saw Elizabeth and gave her a polite smile.He didn't come over to talk to her.
At that moment, the front desk finished their check-in.
He took the room key and left with the man.
Elizabeth shifted her attention away from them and checked in with Raymond and Gilbert.
They agreed to rest in their rooms for half an hour and then have coffee on the hotel's top floor.
Elizabeth entered her room, took out some coffee from her suitcase, and made three cups.
Just as she finished, there was a knock on the door.
She opened it to see Percy and the man at the door.
Elizabeth made a gesture, inviting them in, "Please come in!"
Then she turned and sat on the sofa.
Percy and the man walked in and closed the door.
They sat on the sofa opposite Elizabeth.
Seeing the three freshly made cups of coffee on the table, they were both a bit surprised.
Percy smiled and asked, "Did you know we would come?"
Elizabeth handed him a cup of coffee and said nonchalantly, "I guessed."
Percy had previously given her a clear warning.
During the race, she encountered an evil aura attack.
And Percy had deliberately come to this hotel, so she guessed he would come to find her directly.
Once they entered their rooms, the live stream was interrupted.
So this was a suitable time.
Percy took the coffee she offered. "Ms. Clark, you are indeed very smart. You know me?" Although he asked, his tone was affirmative.
This time, Elizabeth didn't pretend not to know.
She nodded in affirmation and answered, "I know, you're Rebecca and Eugene's older brother."
Since he had come to her, there was no point in hiding it.
Percy chuckled. He remarked, "So you do know me."
He asked jokingly, "Rebecca must have badmouthed me a lot, right?"
Elizabeth raised an eyebrow in denial, she said, "Not really."
Rebecca had only complained about Percy's hypocrisy, nothing more.
She said directly, "What do you want from me? Just say it."
Percy knew from this reaction that Elizabeth was indeed a straightforward person.
He introduced the man beside him, "This is Ryan Ward, the captain of the special department's first team. He's the one who wants to see you today."
Ryan extended his hand to greet Elizabeth, "Ms. Clark, nice to meet you!"
Elizabeth shook his hand.
She found his hand very cold, almost without warmth.
But she wasn't surprised; Ryan had a special constitution.
She looked at Ryan and asked, "What do you need from me?"
Ryan cut to the chase, "I'm here to ask for your help, Ms. Clark. We discovered that the evil wizard we've been chasing arrived in Veridiania yesterday, so I followed him here."
Elizabeth raised an eyebrow, intrigued, and said,. "Are you saying the person who attacked me at the racetrack today is that evil wizard?"
Ryan's pale face showed a smile. He remarked, "It seems you have already guessed. You are unharmed and even counterattacked. With your skills, you should be able to find the evil wizard's hiding place, right? We're here to ask for your help in finding that evil wizard."
After speaking, he covered his mouth and coughed.
Elizabeth handed him another cup of coffee. "You know he's in Veridiania, but you still need my help to find him?"she asked, baffled.
Ryan took a sip of coffee and explained, "He's very powerful. After getting off the plane, he disappeared. We only found out that he specifically came to Veridiania with you as his target. But we couldn't find his location. So when we knew you were going to the racetrack, we followed, but we didn't find him. That's why Percy gave you a special warning."
He changed the subject, saying, "But seeing you at the racetrack, even without our warning, you would have been fine."
This indeed surprised them; they didn't expect her to be so strong.
Not only had she avoided the evil aura attack set by the evil wizard, but she was also able to counterattack.
Now the evil wizard must be seriously injured from the counterattack, making it the best time to capture him.
That was why they approached Elizabeth for help.
Elizabeth smiled as she spoke with interest, "So that's why you came to me."
Then she looked at Percy and asked, "Are you also from the special department?"
If so, that would be interesting!
