Chapter Seventy-Seven: Time is Ticking
"Jack, do you really have a solution?"
"Shh......h Stop. I haven't figured it out yet!" Jack whispered to Tex.
"What!?"
As soon as Turks wanted to say something more, Jack covered his mouth, and his eyes widened, unable to believe that Jack would dare to lie to his father.
"Are you crazy!?" said Tex shook off Jack's hand.
Jack, on the other hand, looked at him in a panic and waved his hand not to be heard by Lille, who was walking in front.
The four of them walked all the way, and Jack and Turks also quietly argued all the way.
Jack felt that he had really made a big deal this time, and took on such an important task, but others didn't know that it was all a lie. In fact, he knew that he would eventually be exposed, but to be honest, he still wanted to give it a go, maybe he would have created a miracle. However, in Sophia's words, "You can't even use a sword, how can you bear such a big responsibility?"
As he was about to reach the swamp, Luthor rushed over from the sky, and Lil hurriedly greeted him with a smile and beckoned to Luther.
"Did you get the sword?" asked Luther.
"Well, got it. As he spoke, Jack raised the Nymph sword in his hand to show Luther.
Luthor took it from his hand, looked at it carefully, turned it over and over, and tried the blade with his fingers, and finally came to the conclusion, "This is a broken sword!
Seeing the situation, Sophia hurriedly rushed over, kicked the sword off the ground, caught it in the air very skillfully, and pointed the sword at Luthor angrily: "You person, aren't you too rude? Don't think that you can rely on the old and sell the old when you're older, this is not your sword, why did you throw it away!?" Sophia frowned, looking at Luthor with angry eyes, this scene, even Jack was stunned: Sophia knows swordsmanship?
Sophia...... It doesn't have to be this way, he's doing it for our good. Jack panicked and quickly dissuaded.
"For our good? Does he know the meaning of this sword? This was given to you by your parents at the risk of their lives, can this person simply say 'break the sword' and throw it away?" Sophia changed her previous gentleness and kindness, and suddenly became very serious in her treatment of Jack.
How do you know that Luthor smiled generously: "Hahaha, sure enough, it's very similar to Jack's temper, it's not a family that doesn't enter the door, Jack, your girlfriend is really good! You see, you want to kill me for your sake. ”
Jack smiled embarrassedly and said, "Luther, there was a misunderstanding, don't mind, you should be able to understand her thoughts, and besides, this is really what my parents risked their lives to give me." With that, Jack snatched Sophia's sword, took her head, buried her in his chest, and whispered to comfort her not to care.
Seeing this, Luthor had to apologize in embarrassment.
"Hurry up, time is running out, we need to hurry up and bring the herd out ......," Turks interjected in surprise and whimsiness, easing the awkward atmosphere.
"Well, yes, Cologne is waiting for news from us, and without these beasts, I'm afraid we won't be able to stop the attack of the 37th Legion of Montaru. Lille also said.
So, the five of them walked to the underground palace together.
In that place, five people took a raft to the entrance of the dungeon, only to find that the door that should have been closed was open!
Tex jumped ashore with all his might, and quickly ran into the depths of the dungeon, followed by the other four people who followed.
Could it be that Turks had discovered something unusual? Jack was skeptical.
Sure enough, from the dungeon to the main hall, there was not a single figure in the entire dungeon, there were many weapons scattered on the ground that had not been taken, and the oil lamps on the walls were almost burned out, and the dungeon looked as if no one had taken care of it for several days.
Seeing this, Lille vigilantly drew his sword and searched around.
"The herd is still there, but the undead are gone. Will it be ......?"
"No, it won't. Do you remember what the old man of Valin said? This dungeon is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the location is extremely hidden, if you are not from inside, it is difficult to know the method of capturing it, besides, there are no traces of a fight in this dungeon. I think it should be Peno who left on their own initiative. ”
Tex's was about to say if it could be the undead who had been attacked, but Luther's analysis made him breathe a long sigh of relief.
"Luthor is right, the Earth Undead should be gone. But where exactly did it go...... From the analysis of the information that Coren told me, the undead are very peace-loving. So I reckon that it is highly likely that they have already reached the Kamihi River. Lille withdrew his drawn sword and said to the crowd.
"It doesn't seem good, Montaro should have already started to act, if this is the case, it is impossible to stop their attack with only the 50,000 defenders of Mo and Kodo, even with the 3,000 strong troops of the undead!" Luthor said.
"All we can do right now is get the herd out of the way. So then, Jack Turks, go out into the primeval forest, and drive the sea beast Hetiga into the swamp, and Lille and I will release the five hundred sea beasts from the cage and lead them from the waterway to the swamp, and there we will meet. "Luthor was like a commander at this time, using his ingenuity to the fullest. What they don't know is that Colon had previously given Luthor the task of leading the team, and he didn't think his son had grown up enough to be fearful.
The five of them immediately separated, and Jack, Turks, and Sophia walked to the primeval forest from the passage that Jack had escaped from before.
"Sure enough, I'm going to meet them. Turks sighed.
At this time, more than a hundred sea beasts Hetiga were still quietly foraging in the forest under the sun, but anyone who knew this creature knew that if someone invaded their territory, they would go after the invaders until they died!
But then again, it was their hunt-and-kill instinct that led Jack to think of a way to lure them to the swamp.
"Turks, summon Cher over later, and let me go. Jack suggested.
"You're crazy! Isn't the past the same as death?!Oh my God, what do you think!" Turks repeatedly rejected this unreliable plan, but Jack still stubbornly insisted on his idea: "Do you think there is another way? ”
Sophia grabbed Jack tightly and persuaded him not to take the risk. However, Jack is such a person, when he is cornered, his method is to put death and come back to life, anyway, this is the first level, and then he has to find a way to make them listen to him, and it is not too late to say no at that time.
Under Jack's constant persuasion, Turks took out his piccolo and blew it into the sky.
