36 Captured and Escaped

"Gross!?"

The figure that appeared behind the door surprised many people, the fat body and the gorgeous armor he was wearing, wasn't it the Duke of Gross who hadn't been seen for a month?

The black cloak that was close to Allen had already reacted quickly at this time, he directly gave up his original plan, and rushed to the place where his group was, as if he wanted to save something, and therefore, Allen completely broke free from the inexplicable shackles of thinking.

"Why did he end up here?" Alan glanced in the direction of the cloaked man, and then looked at Catherine strangely, only to find that she was also surprised at this time.

"My wife doesn't know?" he didn't know what to say.

What happened in front of me was full of twists and turns, I thought that I was already a lamb to the slaughter, but I didn't expect Gross to appear here after a long time!

Didn't he go to the reef?

Why is it here?

"Could it be...."

Remembering what happened to him the last time he came to Samuel, Alan thought thoughtfully.

At this time, the black cloaks entangled by the suddenly appeared vines were like fierce beasts falling into the hunter's trap, almost struggling, and even recited the mysterious spell in their mouths, but under the green light of the vines on their bodies, their spells were ineffective, only the only unrestrained cloaked man could move freely, but when he tried to rescue and found that he could not shake the vine, he retreated very decisively.

His decision was correct, because Jacob, who was bound, gradually regained his consciousness because the power of the forbidden sky stone dissipated, and a vine "giant python" broke out from the ground under the feet where the black cloak was standing!

Unfortunately, the black cloak had already dodged one step ahead.

But he could dodge, but his accomplices couldn't dodge at all, and the dark green python rushed into the cloaked man, its huge body crushing over, bringing out bursts of screams!

In an instant, the black cloaks that had won before suffered heavy casualties!

Seeing this, the only one who escaped let out a voice of resentment, his voice was low and hoarse, and he gritted his teeth: "It's good to lure the snake out of the hole, the Duke of the Trap really deserves his reputation, we underestimated you after all!"

Gross walked up to Jacob, looked at his uncle, and when he saw that he was not injured, he smiled at the black cloak: "I have spent so much effort to lay this trap, even at the expense of many of Samuel's soldiers, if I can't lure you rats out, then I can really only find a crack in the ground to get into." ”

As he spoke, he picked up the crystal clear diamond-shaped hedron from the ground and wiped off the dust on it, and Gross added: "So, you are not wronged, for this matter, I called my uncle back from afar, just to lure you into the bait, and I even asked Taryn to send my dear son-in-law over, just to stimulate the situation in the city, so that you can hurry up and see what a grand treatment!"

"So you've been here for a month?" the cloaked man asked another question, somehow in mind.

"Yes, in a month, you are too cautious to hold me back for so long. Gross joked, "Luckily, I have plenty of patience."

The cloaked man was silent for a long time, and under the watchful eyes of everyone, he suddenly said: "You are right, I am not unjustly defeated, I am indecisive on the surface, but I am so insidious on the inside, in the face of a poisonous snake lurking in the shadows like you, not only me, but all of us are not fully prepared!"

"But," the cloaked man sneered, "fate has long been sealed, your resistance is only in vain, victory belongs to us after all!"

His tone was full of certainty, as if he was very sure of what was coming out of his mouth, but Gross scoffed at it: "If it's already doomed, then why do you want to do these things?"

"I'm just speeding it up. The Cloaked Man said, his steps shifting to get away from Gross, but his retreat came to a halt as a vine burst out of the ground behind him.

"Do you think we've put so much effort into it just to get a glimpse of you?" Jacob, who had regained his senses, said coldly, "This place has been planted with vines, and you can't escape at all!"

"Is it," the cloaked man chuckled, and suddenly he turned around and rushed in the other direction—in the direction of Allen and the others!

"Trying to take hostages?

Jacob and Gross smiled one after another, and then before they could make a move, countless vines suddenly rushed out from under the ground of Alan and the others, enveloping the group inside!

At the same time, more vines broke through the stone bricks on the surface of the hall one after another like a forest, and rushed towards the cloaked man in all directions!

Unlike his companions, the Cloaked Man was obviously superior to ordinary people in terms of physique, and he was quick to dodge the onrushing vines, and for a while, these vines couldn't help him!

It's just that as more and more vines appear, his dodge is no longer very effective.

The vines everywhere made it more and more difficult for the cloaked man to dodge, but he still rushed in the direction of Alan and the others with difficulty and determination as if he didn't know anything about his plight.

"Something is wrong!" Seeing the cloaked man's posture of running and jumping among the vines, the ease on Gross's face was somewhat restricted, and as soon as he frowned, the vines around the cloaked man burst open, and the fragments flew and carried countless green fluorescents, drowning the cloaked man's figure in an instant!

As if he had restrained the enemy, Gross's face changed dramatically, as he did not feel that his attack was making contact with his target.

"Elemental!?"

He exclaimed, and a black mist suddenly erupted from the place covered in green debris at the same time as he screamed!

"Not good!" Seeing this, Jacob also thought of something, he pulled out a vine growing on the ground next to him, the green energy in his hand surged, and the vine was thrown in the direction of the black mist!

However, it was too late, and although the vines were shooting away like javelins, the black mist surged towards the vine bag without the slightest hesitation after it appeared, and merged into it in the blink of an eye!

In mid-air, the vine javelin that grew countless tentacles swooped into the air, and Gross hurriedly dispersed the power of the vine pack, revealing Catherine and her party inside.

Most of them were intact, and after the vine pack was untied, they even smiled lightly, as if they had decided that the two Gross had won.

However, in the face of the gloomy faces of the two, they were at a loss.

"What's wrong?" Catherine asked solemnly, but before Gross could respond, she had already realized that something was wrong!

Eren is gone!

"Him!" Catherine looked blankly at where Alan had been standing before, and then at her husband, looking very confused.

"Elementalization, the ability to transform people into virtual bodies, is a specialty of mages and warlocks!" replied Gross through gritted teeth

"He took Alan?" Catherine asked hurriedly.

"Yes!"

"Why? Why Allen?"

"Obviously, he guessed our plan. ”

"This...."

Many of the soldiers looked confused, but the faces of the two Samuel and Catherine were gloomy because of this.

Glancing at everything in this underground hall, Gross's face changed, and after a long time, he gritted his teeth and said, "I need to start planning in advance, we can't delay any longer!

Jacob sighed and patted his arm for comfort: "We have always had a lot of sincerity, I don't think the reef side will fail to see it, and no one wants to see this kind of thing happen." ”

"I hope so. Gross smiled wryly: "But I don't want to see the alliance that I thought was unbreakable split because of this!

"We've been planning that for so long, to be able to turn our faces for the sake of a little son? Jacob said with a frown.

"He seems to be very stable, but uncle, do you think that the people of the Chrissy family really have any senses?

The group returned to Pearl Castle with complicated faces and heavy hearts, but the oncoming figure made Gross and the others stunned.

The face is handsome, the body is straight, the clothes are well-dressed and the dark hair is slightly messy, but it looks a special chic.

"Alan?" they exclaimed.

What's the situation, wasn't he just arrested, why did he suddenly appear here?

Could it be that the black cloak was kind enough to let him go?

Alan smiled at this, his face was slightly pale, as if he had been frightened by something, but being able to stand here intact proved that he was fine.

"What the hell is going on?" asked Gross.

"I..." Alan opened his mouth and was about to respond, when the sharp-eyed Catherine suddenly spotted a bag in Alan's hand.

"What's in your hand?"
