After breakfast, the four of them strolled around the streets.
Although the streets of the Geranium Kingdom were still bustling with excitement today, a closer look revealed that the number of patrolling soldiers had at least doubled in every area.
Elara, with her sharp eyes, noticed many assassins from the Blood Robe Tower darting swiftly through various hidden corners, and a faint air of killing intent was concealed beneath the lively atmosphere of the Banquet of Hundred Kingdoms.
It seemed that her late-night intrusion into the Blood Robe Tower yesterday to take Morin away, followed by turning around with Uno to kill those three assassins, had indeed provoked a strong reaction from the Blood Robe Tower.
When they reached the street corner where the bulletin board was posted, Elara unsurprisingly saw two newly posted notices.
They were issued by the Blood Robe Tower, with only two vague portraits of a man and a woman on them. Judging by the figures, they were clearly images of her and Uno in their nightwear from yesterday.
These two blurry portraits clearly weren't provided by the ten top-ranked assassins who were killed by Elara and the Wei clan while guarding Morin.
They must have been based on the intel sent back before the fight by the three who later gave chase, number fifteen, number nine, and number seven of the top-ranked assassins.
Too bad Elara and Uno had already changed their appearance yesterday. And since there were no videos or photos in ancient times, the portraits made by Blood Garment Tower were just vague sketches that revealed nothing.
However, underneath the two images was a long list of supposed heinous crimes.
The text claimed the two were remnants of the Thousand Faces Sect, highly skilled in martial arts, born of dark sects, and had committed countless atrocities like slaughtering entire families.
Basically, whatever awful crime they could come up with, Blood Garment Tower pinned it on the blurry images of her and Uno, as if trying to use those accusations to incite various factions across the continent to hunt them down.
At the bottom of the charges, Elara's portrait had a bounty of two hundred thousand.
Uno's was even higher, at two hundred fifty thousand.
"Tsk, something big must have happened last night, haha. I wonder if these two messed with Blood Garment Tower's base or poked that Blood Lord in the rear."
"Combined, the bounties reach four hundred fifty thousand."
"Hiss. That's on par with the wanted notices for the most dangerous criminals across the continent."
"That amount of silver is nearly what Blood Garment Tower earns in a few months. I really wonder what critical spot they struck to make Blood Garment Tower bleed like this, so furious, ha."
Though Blood Garment Tower survives through assassination, it hasn't been fully branded as a demonic sect, yet most powers still regard it with disdain.
Like in Gladiolus, as soon as they guessed Blood Garment Tower had suffered, they laughed heartily.
"The continent truly produces talented heroes nonstop."
Prince Yu fanned himself while looking at the portraits. As he stared at them, he suddenly turned to Elara with a smile.
"What do you think, Miss Bai?"
Elara nodded calmly, showing no unusual reaction.
"Indeed."
Gareth beside her also smiled and said, "The world is vast, with countless people and factions across many nations. Naturally, there are many hidden talents who have yet to reveal themselves."
Around the bulletin board, visitors from various nations had already gathered in a crowd.
Many began speculating about the identities and backgrounds of Elara and Uno, trying to figure out what major act they had done to anger Blood Garment Tower so badly.
"Look at this. These two people with unclear faces, uh, heroes, must have really pulled off something big to get Blood Garment Tower to issue such a huge bounty."
"Also, look. Not only are the images extremely blurry, but it's like even after suffering such damage, Blood Garment Tower still doesn't know who hurt them."
"They didn't even include the surnames or any background."
"Tsk, that's rare. These two heroes dealt such a heavy blow to Blood Garment Tower, yet the tower doesn't even know who they are."
"All it could do was post these blurry wanted posters. Haha, how ridiculous."
"Haha, exactly. If you want to issue a wanted notice, shouldn't the first step be to draw a clear and lifelike portrait and include the person's background and name?"
"But Blood Garment Tower's posters look like a kid's messy sketch, and there's not even a hint of who these two are."
"Looks like not only did they stab into the heart of Blood Garment Tower, but they also left it clueless about their identities."
"Hahaha. So even Blood Garment Tower has days like this. I'm dying from laughter."
Most of the countries attending the Banquet of a Hundred Nations are supported by second-class or higher powers as their allies or ruling states.
Now that a second-tier force like Blood Garment Tower has been struck, they clearly don't care about saving face.
They laugh freely, mock openly, and since the crowd is so large, no one can tell who said what.
Since Blood Garment Tower dared to post such vague wanted posters, it should've expected this kind of reaction.
After all, it isn't a terrifying top-tier force like the Palace of Yellow Springs, which no one dares to mock.
It still doesn't have the power to ignore national ties and arrest people freely, so of course all the guests mocked without restraint.
"Hey. These two nameless, faceless heroes did something so bold that even Blood Garment Tower couldn't see it coming."
"Why don't we just start calling them the Faceless Duo. That title suits them."
"From the descriptions underneath, they might be from a dark path, but to injure Blood Garment Tower like this, they're definitely a pair of remarkable figures."
