Chapter 1601
The merchant ship was constantly elerating and yet it still could not get rid of Willie, who was
following far behind.
Marlee could not shake the feeling that this guy must have malicious intentions in following them, but
she had no way to stop him.
They could not lose him either.
If she warned him, the other party probably would not pay any attention to her.
It would be even more impossible to use force.
Aside from the fact of whether we could win, this was the other party''s territory.
What would she use to fight with them?
Fortunately, David, the Eternal, was on board, so Marlee was assured.
Eternals were nothing in the eyes of those big forces, but they were still a powerful deterrent to the
people at the bottom.
It would be the same no matter where one was.
Willie was just someone who introduced business to the merchant ship who came to the Central
Sacred Continent for the first time.
This was how he would earnmissions.
After thinking about it, Marlee figured he would not have any big forces behind him to support him.
Otherwise, he would not be doing this job.
After Marlee thought this through, she decided to let him follow them.
She did not believe that this guy would dare to keep following her once they got to Treasure Trove.
Treasure Trove was one of the top tradingpanies in the Central Sacred Continent, so its business
was spread throughout Star Kingdom.
Hence, it had countless assets and countless powerful people, and they would not let a rat like Willie
act recklessly.
They would not work with such a person so as to not tarnish thepany’s reputation.
Word of mouth was very important for big tradingpanies.
Once it gained a reputation of bullying dominating the market, or scamming the weak, no one would
dare toe trade here.

Eventually, this would be a huge blow for a big tradingpany.
Time was passing fast.
In the blink of an eye, half a day had passed.
Willie is still following far behind the merchant ship.
He would not catch up nor would he stay too far away.
On the way, Marlee also encountered a patrol ship with the word ‘Central’ engraved on it.
Presumably this was the people sent by the Central Sacred Continent officials to managew and
order.
At the same time, Marlee also discovered something.
When they ran into a patrol ship, Willie would suddenly disappear from behind the merchant ship.
Marlee thought the other party had given up.
However, after the patrol ship moved away, this guy appeared again.
From this, Marlee deduced that Willie was very afraid of patrol ships.
He probably had a bad reputation to the Central Sacred Continent officials.
Perhaps others had frequentlyined about him.
Marlee made up her mind.
If she encountered the official patrol ship of the Central Sacred Continent again, she wouldin to
the other party that Willie was being too demanding and pestering.
However, in the following period, Marlee did not meet any other patrol ships.
A fat figure got Lou''s notice in the small ship.
Lou said he was almost there.
Fat Willie was shocked. ‘He finally came.’
He quickly told Lou the location, and sent the photo of the merchant ship ahead.
Then, he slowed down and stopped following.
Willie understood that if the other party learned that Willie was the one who contacted Lou, they would
not sell their goods to Lou.
The purpose of him following behind them was to determine their location so that Lou could find the
target urately.
Now, it was time for him to retire and prepare to split the money.
He just did not know how much the goods on this merchant ship were worth nor how much money he
could get.
‘If the other party was so concerned about the 1%, then it should be quite a lot.’
Willie thought happily.
