Could it be that someone from the Dark Star Society was working with Fenkes?
The thought popped up in Kieran's mind.
Kieran wanted to deny the possibility, but other than that, Kieran could not think of any other possibility.
After eliminating the impossible, whatever was left, no matter how impossible it was, had to be the truth.
As the thought popped up in his mind, Kieran also figured out something else that had been bothering him for a long time.
Other than the Polaris Society, the Dark Star Society, the Night Demon Society, the Unicorn Society, and the White Deer Society all had their own secret hideouts on the West Coast. How had the Dark Star Society gotten to Alcatraz first?
This was because Fenkes had tipped them off!
The person who had worked with Fenkes had reported the news to the higher-ups of the Dark Star Society. That was how the Dark Star Society had gotten to Alcatraz first.
"So, the person who worked with Fenkes …"
"He must have been the first person from the Dark Star Society to know the secret of Alcatraz!"
Kieran thought to himself.
As for Fenkes working with the entire Dark Star Society?
If Fenkes had the ability to do so, he would not have needed to go through so much trouble.
All he would have had to do was wait patiently for Kieran to get to Alcatraz.
"Fenkes and an invisible enemy?"
Kieran mumbled to himself.
He was sure that his return to Alcatraz would not be smooth sailing.
Kieran had a pretty good idea why Fenkes wanted to return to Alcatraz: the bronze coffin!
The Dark Star Society member who had worked with Fenkes must have been after the bronze coffin as well.
Both of them had ulterior motives and were eyeing the bronze coffin covetously.
Alcatraz might have seemed to be under the Dark Star Society's control, but it was actually a hidden danger. All they needed was a chance for it to explode.
It would be like an erupting volcano, catching everyone off guard.
Kieran believed that Fenkes and the Dark Star Society member who was in cahoots with Fenkes would be able to find the right opportunity.
If that was the case …
"Here's my chance!"
Kieran's lips curled up slightly.
Alcatraz Island was heavily guarded by the Dark Star Society. Even though Kieran was obsessed with the item inside the bronze coffin, there was nothing he could do.
But now?
No matter how strong a fortress was, it would still be easily breached from the inside.
However, considering the possible consequences of the situation and Nikorei's position, some details had to be carefully considered.
Kieran calculated in his heart.
After a few minutes, he finally had a rough idea.
Simones, on the other hand, was waiting patiently with his pipe in his mouth.
"Sorry, I thought of something else!"
When Kieran came back to his senses, he smiled at Simones apologetically.
"It's good to think more about anything."
"This is for you!"
Simones handed Kieran a brown leather waist pouch that he had prepared beforehand.
[Name: Potion Apothecary's Pouch]
[Type: ETC]
[Rarity: Excellent]
[Attributes: None]
Special Effect: None
Prerequisites: None
[Able to bring out of the dungeon: Yes]
[Remarks: Every Potion Apothecary Apprentice will be given a pouch like this when they finish their apprenticeship. It can hold up to six standard potions. Although it's not an outstanding item, it's very meaningful!]
...
The pouch was already filled with six different potions.
Other than the two [Medium Healing Potions] that Kieran already knew about, there were also two [Agility Potions] and two [Underwater Breathing Potions].
[Name: Agility Potion]
[Type: Potion]
[Rarity: Excellent]
[Attributes: Within 60 seconds, gain + 1 Agility when running, jumping and dodging]

...

[Attributes: You can breathe underwater for 90 seconds]
[Prerequisites: None]
[Able to bring out of the dungeon: Yes]
[Remarks: Remember the time you have left, or you'll end up in tragedy!]
...
Looking at the pouch full of potions, Kieran stared at Simones in a daze.
Kieran knew the value of these six potions after spending so much time with them.
Whether it was the natives or the players, they were worth a fortune.
"You've saved me more than once!
Shouldn't I repay you with something? "
Simones said with a smile.
Kieran looked at Simones with a smile on his face. He straightened his body and bowed slightly.
"Thank you!"
Kieran said sincerely.
It was a fact that he had saved Simones more than once.
It was also a fact that Simones had taught him Potionology with all his heart.
The potions in Kieran's hands were a sign of their friendship.
Facing this friendship, Kieran had to thank Simones and engrave it in his heart.
"Let's go!"
Simones said with a smile.
Kieran nodded. After checking all his equipment, he put on his backpack and headed out the door.
"Remember, no matter what, your life is the most important!"
"If you see that the situation is bad or you can't win, you must run, the faster the better!"
Simones said just as Kieran was about to step out of the room.
"I know!
"I value my life very much!"
Kieran did not stop, waving his right hand as he walked.
Simones watched Kieran walk down the corridor and down the stairs. He took a deep puff of his cigarette and blew it out slowly.
The smoke dispersed in front of him.
His original appearance became blurry and indistinct.
...
With the blessing of the spirit butler and Ellie Jones, Kieran, Frostrill, and Fenkes embarked on their journey to Alcatraz.
It would take them a day and a night to reach Alcatraz from the city they were in.
Three-quarters of the journey would be spent in a car.
The other quarter of the journey would be by ferry.
Regardless of which mode of transportation it was, the Dark Star Society had arranged for it.
Not only was it fast, but it was also safe.
Fenkes had been resting since the beginning of the journey.
He had been dozing off in the car, and on the ferry, he had asked for a private room to sleep in.
Kieran knew that Fenkes was trying to recover the energy he had used up during the performance.
Listening to the snoring in the room next door, Kieran was sure that Fenkes had fallen into a deep sleep. If he had not been worried about messing up Fenkes's plan, Kieran would not have minded dealing a fatal blow to Fenkes and eliminating the hidden threat.
"Soon!
What kind of performance will you guys have?
Let's wait and see! "
Kieran closed his eyes.
There was going to be a big battle.
He needed to rest and recharge his energy.
The ferry sailed slowly as the engine roared.
Seconds turned into minutes.
In the distance, the silhouette of an island could gradually be seen under the light of the morning sun.
They had arrived at Alcatraz.
