1116 Chapter 1,157: The World in the Sea -Partpart 2) !
“It’s a scam! It must be a scam! !”The count pointed at the water and screamed!
This sudden voice made everyone hesitate. Although everyone had said that they would jump into a pit before coming here, they were still hesitant at this point…
Reality proved that many people did not have the courage…
Luke and Bundy looked at the pig-like count coldly. If it was not for the fact that the count was sunny’s father, the orc might not have wanted him to die. The two of them might have directly chopped him up!
This pig did not even think about it. If it was really designed by them, what was it for? There were so many large monsters along the way. Each time, they could cause extreme losses to the entire team. But who was the first to solve the crisis?
Such a huge wave and that terrifying Python could have directly killed them at the port. Why did they have to do such a thing and then persecute them?
For what?
It wasn’t that there wouldn’t be any problems, but they had already reached this point. The way back might have already turned into seawater. Were you trying to make a fool out of yourself by doing this now?
“Ahem…”finally, Luke coughed and raised his voice. “Quiet, listen to me!”
As the highest commander who had led the team all the way here, he still held a lot of weight in the eyes of both the army and the civilians. Hence, they all quieted down and looked at each other.
“It’s the last step. I know that many people are terrified. They are afraid that all the hope that they have been hoping for is just a bubble, a lie… I understand, I really understand!”Luke took a deep breath, his voice became softer and softer. “To be honest, I’m not sure what’s on the other side of the water. Maybe it really is the beautiful world shown on the mirror. Maybe… “…”. “Once we enter, what awaits us is that terrifying Python’s bloody mouth!”
“But so what? Look behind you. Do We Still Have a way out? Can we still go back on Our Words?”Luke asked.
Everyone turned back to look. It was a parallel line that stretched as far as the eye could see. The seawater on both sides stood up magically. Who knew when it would collapse and completely drown them at the bottom of the sea.
If they went back on their words now, could this road hold them back until they returned?
Lord Luke was right. They… … indeed had no chance to regret. …
“Since we can’t regret, what’s the point of scaring ourselves?”Luke smiled and said, “I’m willing to take this trip, even if the outcome is bad. As for what you guys do… … I now declare that everyone is free. Whether you’re willing to go forward or retreat, it’s up to you. Anyway, there’s nothing left in my team, whether it’s food or fresh water…”. “…”
After saying that, Luke ignored the crowd and stepped into the mirror, followed by Bundy, Bob, David, and other high-ranking military officers.
The rest of the people stood rooted to the ground, recalling Luke’s words…
While everyone was silent, a commotion suddenly came from the back of the crowd. With a squeeze, everyone moved aside. Only then did they realize that the one who had been squeezing forward was the pitiful countess who comforted her crippled daughter every day.
“You… What are you doing?”The count looked at the Countess who was carrying his daughter on her back and took two steps back.
The countess glanced at the other party coldly. Her eyes were filled with disgust and resentment. “Get lost!”
“You…”the count was instantly enraged. However, at the same time, he saw the dagger in the other party’s hand and eventually retreated. This crazy woman had almost killed his existence last time.
Who knew what she would do if she got excited?
Seeing the other party retreat in the end, the countess sneered. She could not help but secretly hate herself for being too stubborn. Otherwise, how could she let this thing harm her beloved daughter to this extent?
She did not care what this dog said. There was hope to save her daughter in it. Even if it was only one in ten thousand, she still wanted to go through this! !
After the count was forced to retreat, she carried her daughter on her back and quickly stepped inside.
Everyone was silent for a while, but as the Countess stepped in, more and more people chose to walk forward. After all, Sir Luke was right. They had already come this far. What was the point of regretting?
Seeing more and more people enter, the count could not help but scold them for being stupid. In fact, he was also hesitating if he should go in. However, he was the first to jump out and say that just now. It would be too quick to slap his face if he went in now, he could not bring himself to lose face.
In the end, he still felt that he should let these people enter first and observe the situation first… …
Just like that, the count stood by the mirror and watched hundreds of thousands of people enter in a grand manner. In the end, even his personal guards had entered. The count finally moved his feet.
Clearly, he was not strong enough to walk back alone.
However, the moment he wanted to step into the mirror, a strange thing happened.
The mirror suddenly disappeared like a bubble with a bang… …
“What… What’s going on?”The count was stunned. He desperately tried to grab the place where the mirror disappeared, but there was nothing. It was as if everything was an illusion.
“It’s really… it’s really a trap, right? What did I say? A bunch of idiots! !”The count roared loudly.
After this roar, the green light on the surrounding sea began to gradually dim and eventually disappeared. The entire world fell into darkness once again.
In an instant, the count was dumbfounded. He looked around in fear, but he was already used to the light, so he could not see anything. There was only darkness in front of him.
The light was once again deprived, and an icy cold fear instantly surged into the count’s heart. He stood up while trembling. He continued to search the position of the mirror, trying to find some traces, but there was nothing.
He did not manage to touch the count, but he tried to touch other places. His hands quickly touched the water on both sides. The water that had lost its light was bone-chilling, as cold as the silent night. One could not feel any warmth at all.
And suddenly, he seemed to have touched something slippery…
In an instant, the count’s hands retracted as if they had been electrocuted. He fell to the ground and looked at the spot where he had searched in horror.
What was that?
But he could not see it. He did not know what was in the water just now… …
What could it be?
A Python? An Octopus? Or some other monster?
In the darkness, a person’s imagination for terror was endless. Some terrifying thoughts could not be stopped from appearing in his mind, causing the count to be on the verge of collapse, he did not even know when the seawater on both sides would collapse directly!
“I was wrong…”
At last the crumbling count fell to his knees, his voice beseeching and despairing.
“I’m sorry, Please, don’t… Don’t let me… alone…”
——–
No one else could hear the count’s desperate plea in the dark, and even if they did, no one would pay any attention to him, for they were deeply drawn to the strange and beautiful world before them!
