"Dina?" Dean felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over his head: "She didn't die?"
"Master, is she your enemy?" Neuss was aware of the problem. He and Barton were present at the time so they knew how fierce the woman's strength was. If she was an enemy then it would be a disaster!
Dean was in a daze for a long time. He had experienced several great joys and sorrows in a short period of time. He had a feeling of collapse. However, his strong mind and endurance made him restrain himself. He wanted to roar in his heart but his body was numb as he sat on the bed. He felt powerless at this moment.
The joyous atmosphere in the room dropped to the ice valley. Barton, Mason, Aurora and others looked at each other. They didn't expect to face a more terrifying enemy after escaping from Amelia tribe.
It wasn't difficult to see from Dean's situation that the woman was stronger than him!
"Master, should we move immediately? With your strength you can survive even if you go to other giant wall. We are willing to follow you!" Neuss recovered and immediately came up with a plan. Although he knew that Dean already had the answer in his heart.
Dean was silent for a moment. He shook his head: "I have nowhere to go. If what you said is true then there are only three possibilities for her to stay in the palace for two days. The first is that she is seriously injured and needs to recuperate immediately. Second is that there is something in the palace that attracted her so that she can't take care of me. Third is that she knows my position. If I plan to escape she will immediately appear. "
"The first possibility is 30%, the second possibility is 10% and the third possibility is the highest."
Neuss and Barton were startled. Mason asked: "How did she know your position?"
Dean looked up at him and said: "She should have installed a tracking device in my body. I have been in a coma for the past two days, so she didn't come over."
They looked at each other. They didn't expect Dean's situation to be so embarrassing. It was no different from a prisoner.
"No matter what, we should still give it a try, but don't hold too much hope." Dean put away the negative emotions in his heart and said: "You can't be exposed. Continue to lurk according to your original trajectory. If I sacrifice myself, don't look for her for revenge. The only one who can defeat her, besides herself, is probably God …"
"God?"
Neuss and Barton looked at each other. They didn't expect that woman to be so terrifying. Wasn't she invincible?!
"If you can live longer and become stronger in the future then do me a favor …" Dean looked up and seriously looked at them: "If I have a corpse then help me preserve it. If you find Aisha in the future then give my corpse to her. It is best to let her eat it …"
Their hearts trembled as they looked at him in a daze.
When their eyes met Dudian's eyes, they found that the teenager who was in high spirits and had control of everything was now covered with wind and frost. The childishness on his face had long faded. His young face was very mature.
In the blink of an eye, how much time had passed?
The few of them were a bit absent-minded. Only now did they suddenly realize that time had rushed past their bodies, carving many traces on them.
"Dean, don't say that. No matter what danger there is I will follow you. This is our agreement!" Mason clenched his fists as he spoke in a loud voice.
"Master …" Barton wanted to say something but he choked. Although he had trained his eloquence over the years but he seemed to have returned to his original nature as he stood in front of Dean. He became honest and upright like when he was in the orphanage.
Dean shook his head and smiled: "This is the worst case scenario. I can't escape, but you still have your life. Unfortunately, you won't be able to live a happy life with me for a few days. You will have to live like a mouse that everyone wants to kill."
"Master, I would have died in prison if it wasn't for you!" Neuss clenched his teeth. There were tears in his eyes. He rarely shed tears as he had only cried for women. But this time he felt extremely uncomfortable and sad. Barton was Dudian's childhood companion in the orphanage. Mason was Dudian's childhood friend. Barton was Dudian's childhood friend. Barton was Dudian's childhood friend. Barton was the one who followed Dudian for the longest time. Barton was the one who accompanied Dudian for the longest time.
Moreover, he had accompanied Dean through the trials and tribulations of the prison. He had experienced the cautious struggle in the early days of the escape. Later he became Dean's assistant. He was more familiar with Dean than Mason and Barton.
Such a tenacious and unyielding person under torture was now using a pleading tone to ask for their help. How helpless was this!?
"I have helped you and you have helped me. We are equal. Let's not talk about the past. I would have died if it wasn't for you and Barton." Dean smiled and patted Neuss' shoulder.
Neuss and Barton bit their teeth but didn't reply.
Dean glanced at them: "What about Gwyneth?"
Aurora grunted and said, "She's already dead!"
"Dead?" Dean was startled. There was some regret in his heart.
Neuss explained: "Gwyneth insisted on returning to the magistrate after you left. She came from there and relied on her privileges to become the head of the magistrate. She was ready to rely on her authority to thoroughly investigate the rats in the dark corners of the inner and outer wall."
"In the end, the nobles, the Monster Research Institute and other major forces had done some despicable deeds in secret. She killed a large number of nobles in anger. She provoked the wrath of the gods and the people inside the giant wall. It didn't take long for the former head of the wall to come back. She was ready to hide her identity but no force could provide her shelter. Later an aristocrat pretended to protect her but secretly plotted against her. After her identity was exposed, she was beheaded by Aristotle and paraded through the streets for an entire week. It was only when her corpse started to stink that the parades were called off. "
Dean was startled as he didn't expect Gwyneth to end up in such a miserable state. However there wasn't much anger on the faces of Neuss, Aurora, Macon and others. After thinking about it for a while, he understood. After all, the biggest underworld forces should be counted as their heads. If Gwyneth wants to pursue these underworld forces, it will inevitably cause friction with them and they might even turn against each other.
So in the end Gwyneth could only seek refuge under the nobles instead of relying on their strength.
He sighed deeply. Gwyneth's appearance appeared in his mind. She had just come out of prison. She had followed him to battle. She had the courage to speak up … From a long time ago, Gwyneth had unabashedly expressed her disgust for some despicable acts. She had been learning in the magistrate since she was a child. Her views would not change even if she was wronged and imprisoned.
"She was a good person. It's a pity." Dean murmured.
The few of them remained silent.
Dean retracted his thoughts after a moment of silence. He didn't mention about Gwyneth anymore. "Is there a library here? Take me to see it."
"Are you going to read?" Neuss was surprised. Macon, Barton and others were surprised. Shouldn't they seize the time to escape?
Dean smiled: "There is a golden house in the books."
Neuss knew that Dean wouldn't do useless things so he didn't ask much: "Yes, I can take you there at any time if you recover."
"Then let's go now."
Three days later.
A golden-armored desolate guard brought a letter to the dark fortress and passed it to Neuss. After reading it, Neuss' face suddenly changed. He took the letter and hurriedly went to the library in the depths of the dark fortress and found a young man who was sitting cross-legged under a bookshelf and flipping through a book.
"Master, a letter from the palace!" Neuss quickly called out.
Dean lifted his eyes from the book and glanced at the letter in Neuss's hand. There was only one sentence in the letter. It was very simple: "Have you played enough? Do you need me to personally invite you over?"
Dean's eyes were calm. He looked at Neuss: "It seems that I don't need to escape to test whether she installed a tracking device on me or not."
Neuss smiled bitterly, "It seems that she has already grasped the Amili tribe in the palace. With the help of the positioning device on you, she knows about our secret base. Otherwise, she wouldn't have sent the letter directly to you. That golden armored Desolate Guard bluntly said that he would send it to you."
"Don't worry. She isn't interested in the power here. She will leave after the matter is settled." Dean stood up and patted the dust off his body. "After she leaves, the Desolate Race will be hit hard. You can wait for an opportunity to attack. Prepare well during this period of time. If I'm still alive, I'll help you destroy the Desolate Race."
"Master …" Neuss's eyes were full of worry. He didn't care about the secret base being exposed.
Dean patted his shoulder: "The messenger of the Kingdom of God died here. The Kingdom of God will send people to investigate. There are many strong people in the Kingdom of God. The road to the throne is unattainable and too difficult. If you can take them to another place and find a giant wall. Maybe they will be happier there."
Neuss's nose turned sour as he heard Dean's words: "Master, if something happens to you then I'll avenge you. I'll use the rest of my life!"
Dean shook his head: "It's not worth it. I don't want you to tie yourself to my prison after I rescue you from it. You have your own life. Find a village with few people and live a good life."
…
…
"Your Majesty Crimson Moon, the person you invited has arrived." A golden armor guard respectfully said.
Above the palace hall, a slender figure wearing a scarlet flame robe sat on the throne, looking down from above. On both sides of the hall were the leaders of many forces, including the Earls of the 12 cities, the deans of the Demonic Creature Research Institute, the patriarchs of the Demonic Hunter Families, and so on.
"Bring him in." An indifferent voice came from the throne, covering the entire hall and reverberating in everyone's ears.
Dean was standing outside the hall when he heard Daina's voice. He sighed in his heart and followed the golden armored Desolate Guard into the hall. Soon, he saw the patriarch of the Wing Demon Clan, the patriarch of the Rock Clan, the dean of the Monastery, several outstanding academicians of the Monster Research Institute, and several nobles who had flattered him.
On the two sides of the throne, Amelia and the great priest could be seen.
"Familiar faces …" Dean chuckled, somewhat self-deprecating.
"Your Majesty Crimson Moon, Dean has arrived." The golden armor guard respectfully bowed his head.
Dinah nodded slightly on the throne and said to Dean, "Did you have a good time these days?"
"How could I have a good time without you?" Dean chuckled.
Dinah raised her eyebrows and a cold light flashed in her eyes. She seemed to have thought of something and her lips curved. "Is that so? I'll play with you later!"
Dean heard her deliberately ambiguous tone and knew that she was angry. He shrugged and said, "I hope your skills haven't deteriorated in a few days!"
The smile on Dinah's face did not diminish. She suddenly realized that she had made a mistake. She was far from being his opponent when it came to flirting with a man.
Although the conversation between the two was short, the people on both sides of the hall were surprised.
In the past few days, they had heard the inside story of the replacement of the throne from their own intelligence channels. Naturally, they knew Dinah's strength. Dean was an old face to them. He was a legendary figure in the past. However, compared with Dinah, a powerhouse of the Abyss, Dean was obviously worse. They just did not expect that Dean would have a relationship with such a figure.
Thinking of this, many people looked at Dean with both envy and jealousy in their eyes, but there were also some sighs.
"Today, I called you here for no other reason than to tell you that you should continue to be my subordinates. Don't play tricks in the dark." Dinah no longer paid attention to Dean and said to the people in the hall.
Everyone already knew the purpose of Dinah calling them here was to formally inform them about the replacement of the throne. However, they did not expect that it would be so straightforward and simple. It seemed that there was no subtlety.
"Did no one hear what I said?" Dinah's indifferent face showed a trace of a smile when she saw that no one answered.
"Yes, the Zawu family will always be loyal to Her Majesty!"
"The Wings of the Hunter Clan is willing to be loyal to Her Majesty!"
Everyone immediately expressed their position and did not dare to stand out at this time.
Dinah waved to Amelie next to her and said a few words to her. Then she got up and said to Dean, "You come with me."
Dean was relieved. Previously, when he saw Amelie calling so many big bosses in the giant wall, he thought that she really wanted to manage the giant wall. Fortunately, she became impatient after a few words and did not want to think about it.
