Ishak rolled his eyes at Morul, "It's impossible to tell no matter how smart you are. Figuring anything out requires clues before analysis, only then you would get an answer. Everything that happened earlier was just completely crazy–how could you expect me to figure anything out?"Morul was just asking for trouble! When Fane heard what Ishak said, he looked right over at Ishak. Ishak did not look that special, but he seemed to have an intelligent mind. Even though he did not figure out an answer, what he said seemed perfectly reasonable.Fane believed that as long as they could find a clue for Ishak, then he would be able to figure some useful things out. Wellis had an incredulous look on his face as he quietly sat by the side. He did not say anything, and it was obvious that everything that happened to him earlier impacted him greatly.Fane frowned. He could not understand why Wellis seemed to be so shocked. Even though he had encountered some difficulties, there were not that man
Morul turned to look at everyone, "This place is just too strange! If we continue forward, we might end up losing our lives here. We might lose the chance to earn some points, but we'll at least still be alive! What's the point of having more points if we die?"After he said that, he dusted his body as he stood up, and turned to the north. He had so frantically fled to this place earlier, but he was about to head back. Ishak coughed and turned to look at Morul, "I should remind you, don’t forget where we fled from. Don’t think that you'll be able to survive if you turn back now. You might meet with danger on the way back!"Morul's expression darkened, and everyone widened their eyes in shock. Ishak hit the nail right on the point. Going back to base sounded safe, but no one knew what would appear on the way back."What should we do then? Are we supposed to just wait here for our death?" someone said in a hoarse voice.Ishak sighed as he looked at the terrified crowd, "We should f
Wellis was the leader, but he said nothing and merely stood behind Fane quietly.The two figures were incredibly quick. When they got closer, Fane could finally see what they actually looked like.They had dark green robes on, and the one on the left was wearing a green mask while the one on the right was wearing a blue one. The two hid their faces, but it was obvious from the way they acted that they were not evil beasts. They were participants as well.Once they realized that the two figures were humans, everyone breathed a sigh of relief except Fane and Wellis. Even though there were weaker and stronger evil beasts, the evil beasts they met earlier had all been strong. "Who are you two?" Fane asked coldly.The man in the green mask put up two fingers as he said to the crowd, "I'll give you all two choices! The first is to leave Wellis behind and go your separate ways, the second is for all of you to stay behind!"Everyone was stunned when they heard that. It was as if they ha
The green-masked man laughed in disdain as he mocked them, "I heard that you were smart, but it looks like that's not the case at all! Are you so sure that they'll help you? The two of us might not be warriors at the peak, but we're quite highly ranked among above-average warriors. It'll be easy to deal with all of you! Even if all of you attack us, you won't be able to kill us without sacrificing a few of you!"The man in the blue mask laughed as he said, "Hey, Wellis, do you really think that highly of yourself? Why would they help you? If they help you, they might just end up dying. Are you that close to them?"Wellis' lips stiffened as he found himself rendered speechless. The two in front of him were despicable, but they were right. He was merely acquaintances with all the others. They were all paying him to lead them into the Evil Plains. It was just a transaction.If all of them fought against the other two, they would have a great chance of winning, but their side would stil
Fane knew how Wellis was feeling at that moment. He merely nodded at Wellis, signaling to Wellis to keep his cool."I don't care anymore! I might end up in danger if I stay here. I don't want to die here! I'm sorry, Wellis!" After saying that, someone took two steps back and separated himself from Wellis.Since one person had started, the others moved as well. Morul hesitated for a moment before taking a step back as well. Out of the nine of them, four of them took a step back. The other five remained in place. They had conflicted expressions on their faces but did not retreat.Ishak was part of the five who remained. He stood in place and did not move, and there was no look of conflict on his face either. What the masked man said earlier did not change Ishak's mind at all.The man in the green mask looked over at Ishak. He said, "Do you know what the consequences of being stubborn are?"His tone was ice-cold as if he was announcing Ishak's death.Ishak raised an eyebrow, and he
Fane's skills were something they had all witnessed before, so there was no need to say anymore. However, Wellis was still a bit worried, so he added as he left, "I-If these guys are hard to deal with, I'll be around. I can help you anytime!”Fane nodded with a calm smile. The masked men exchanged suspicious looks with each other. Could that guy actually have some skills? However, they both knew that anyone who wanted to beat the both of them together would at least need to be a warrior at the peak.Warriors at the peak were not just found anywhere. There were less than forty in the whole Whirling World, and their faces were all known to the two of them. However, that person looked completely foreign to them. They were sure that it was their first time meeting that person."Do you think you'd be able to scare me just because you're acting like you have something up your sleeve? You think I'd retreat from that?" The man in the green mask said with a sneer.Fane raised an eyebrow and
The two of them looked at Fane with expressions of horror. Fane was like a demon that crawled out of hell in their eyes. It was only then did they realize why Wellis had looked at them the way he did.When Fane had asked to fight the two of them, everyone seemed completely calm, as if it was perfectly normal. At the time, the two of them had thought that they were putting on an act, making this person seem strong so the two would retreat.Only then did they realize that it was not an act at all. They were just stupid enough to assume that it was. In the end, they fell into this situation. The pain was torturing every nerve they had, causing them to let out cries of agony constantly."Who are you?! Why have I never met you before?!" The man in the green mask shouted out.Fane raised an eyebrow, "My identity doesn't concern you. I have no time to waste with the two of you. If you answer me nicely, I'll give you a quick end. Otherwise, the two of you will experience hell on earth."T
"They keep on leaving all the dirty work to me. I did my best at the Toman Battlefield. Fane was a complete surprise. Even Triton died to Fane. What did they expect me to do to him?!"The only way to make sure he's completely dealt with is by sending three people at him! Don't they know that? Yet, they keep holding on to this and toss everything at me with the excuse that I didn't do my job perfectly!"Desmond was furious. He had practically said all of that through clenched teeth. Just thinking about their faces caused him to get even angrier. If it was not for the final plans, he would not have accepted everything just like that.Pascal sighed as he said apprehensively, "Desmond, calm down. Those people have always been like this. They love hanging onto one thing and never letting go. You won't be working with them for much longer anyway. Once this matter is over, you won't have to see them anymore. Just hold back for now, and things will be great after this."Desmond clenched hi
