Chapter 926 We Will Meet Again
"If you don't hand it over, I'm afraid you will have to take your last breath in this place." A sneer appeared on Adolf's face.
There was a silver-white sword in his hand. The sword was like an emerald. Gerald didn't know what it was made of, but he knew at a glance that it was definitely not an ordinary weapon. Gerald dared not let his guard down.
After all, even someone like Grant had Nether Needle in his hands, which caused him to suffer a big loss. It was hard to say what trump card the Eight Forces had in their hands.
Moreover, Adolf belonged to Soulreaper Sect. Based on Gerald's understanding of Soulreaper Sect, the methods of this force were already somewhat mysterious. According to what Gerald had read on history, Soulreaper Sect was the largest assassin organization in Havotune at the beginning.
Moreover, Gerald knew that the Eight Forces used to be affiliated with Nether Palace. This meant that Soulreaper Sect was most likely a group of assassins that used to work for Nether Palace. Later, they betrayed the sect.
Assassins, in a one-hit kill, only asked for the results; they didn't care about the process. Poisoning or using any dirty tricks was considered normal.
Therefore, most people in the Eight Forces were reluctant to mess with people from Soulreaper Sect.
"Everyone!" Gerald said calmly, "There's a beast attack outside now, so I advise you to leave this place first. You've won first place, so you must have a lot of points."
"Indeed!" Adolf said faintly, "But if we get these points from you, we will definitely get the first place."
"If you
don't know what's good for you, then you can only throw your life away!" Adolf let out a sinister laugh
and said, 'Do it."
As soon as his voice fell, he suddenly became elusive. At the same time, the black-clothed man behind Gerald disappeared into the darkness.
The other two men headed straight for Gerald.
A murderous glint flashed across Gerald's eyes when he saw them.
"Stop!" Just then, an angry roar rang out from a distance. "Adolf, how dare you lay a finger on my
friend?"
Gerald looked for the source of the sound and saw a dozen people approaching not far away. They were Benning and Kristian, running in front of them. Other than that, Sheryl and the others were also following closely behind.
"Huh?" Adolf frowned as he looked at the dozens of people. "Is this your friend?"
Benning put his saber on the ground and said, "What's wrong? Do you have a problem with that?"
Adolf said disdainfully, "Benning, do you think I don't know you? You see everyone as a friend. I'm telling you -
this kid has 19 cards in his hand. He is the second one to reach that number after recording. Now, he even has 92 points. Do you still consider him your friend?"
When Kristian and the others heard Adolf's words, they were stunned. They looked at Gerald in shock and said, "Holy shit, how did you get so many points?" Gerald was dumbfounded.
After a brief moment of astonishment, Kristian came to a realization.
It was true that it was much easier for Gerald and the others to get points than for them.
A glint flashed across Sheryl's eyes.
At this time, Adolf sneered, "Since you guys are here, then... Let's kill this guy, and then, we can share the cards in his hand equally."
Gerald's expression changed slightly, and fear crept onto his face.
Although he had saved Sheryl's life, it was a matter of points and the final ranking of the trial. He didn't know what Sheryl and the others would do.
If they made a move, there would be a total of 11 Flame Decayers here, not counting the trump cards in their hands. If they really started a fight, it would be enough for him to have a hard time. Just then, Benning cursed, "Fuck you, Adolf! Gerald saved my life. Do you want me to repay his kindness with
enmity?"
Kristian rolled his eyes and said, "Benning, Adolf is from Soulreaper Sect, and 80 percent of the people from Soulreaper Sect are cunning. Why don't we work together and strip Adolf's pants off?" Benning's eyes lit up. He looked at Sheryl and asked, "Do you want to do it?"
Sheryl's eyes flickered as if she was tempted.
Adolf was dumbfounded.
Gerald was just a nameless person. He remembered Gerald because Anabel's team was the weakest.
It was akin to a class, where students with the best grades and the ones with the worst grades were equally eye-catching.
He never thought that Gerald would ask Kristian and the others to join forces to deal with him.
Adolf's expression changed at that instant. He felt like he had messed with the wrong person this time.
He couldn't figure out how Gerald managed to get these people to gang up against him.
The 12 people slowly dispersed, and at this time, Benning said, "Where are those little girls? Ask them to
come out."
"Because of the beasts' attack, I told them to hide. I brought my card here to record everything, and then, I'll go back to them," Gerald said.
Sheryl was stunned. "You sure know how to protect women, don't you?"
"I know it, too!" Benning hurried over and said, "So marry me. I'll protect you for the rest of your life."
"Cut the crap. Adolf wants to escape!" Kristian hurriedly reminded.
In the distance, Adolf was indeed planning to escape. When he heard Kristian's words, his face darkened. He
glared at Kristian and said, "Kristian, are you sure you want to get on my bad side?"
"Tsk! You're making it sound like I'm afraid of you. Now, you want to fight me one-on-one? Anyone who doesn't show up is a dog." Kristian said disdainfully.
Perhaps those from the other branches of the family would be afraid of Adolf, but Kristian was also the direct
descendant of the Archaic Tribe, and he was not afraid of Adolf at all.
Just then, a low voice rang out, "Everyone, I suggest that we don't kill each other at this time."
At the same time, seven figures rushed over, and Gerald saw Skyler among them.
Skyler was slightly surprised when he saw Gerald.
"Shannon!" Kristian frowned.
Shannon and the others quickly rushed to the altar. He looked around and said, "It's not suitable to fight internally now. These beasts staged a riot and created a beast attack. They are constantly attacking us, who
are in the trial. If we fight among ourselves now, it will only weaken our strength, and we won't even be able to
get out of this area."
"Huh?" Sheryl and the others looked at him.
Shannon continued, "I heard your conversation. I suggest that each of you get as many points as you have
now. As for the final ranking, we can base it on our current points. Let's hurry up and record it. Then, we'll band together and break through while the beasts have not yet gathered. Otherwise, I'm afraid only a few of
us will be able to survive here."
Hearing Shannon's words, Kristian's eyelids twitched. "Really?"
"This is my judgment. As for whether you believe me or not... It's up to you," Shannon said.
The others were silent, and Sheryl was the first to speak. "Okay. Aldous Marshall, take the card, and record it! Once it's done, we'll leave immediately."
Hearing Sheryl's words, Kristian quickly took out his card and recorded it.
Sheryl looked at Gerald and said, "Gerald, hurry up and call Anabel and the others over. Let's break through
together."
Gerald shook his head and said, "They're quite far from here. You guys can break through by yourselves. I'll go find them and find a way out by myself."
Sheryl was stunned for a moment before nodding. "Okay, then. Be careful."
Upon hearing Sheryl's words, Kenneth and Kristian looked envious. Meanwhile, several other men looked at
Gerald strangely.
Sheryl was the dream girl of many younger members of the Eight Forces.
Gerald nodded and said, "Then, I'll be leaving first. You guys be careful too. We have to hurry up."
With that, he nodded at Skyler as a greeting and left quickly.
"Be careful," Sylvie whispered as she passed by.
Gerald smiled faintly, then turned around and ran outside.
Just as he was about to run out of the stone pillars, Gerald heard a voice in his head.
"We'll... meet again!"
Gerald froze for a moment before he turned around.
He noticed that Sheryl and the others were talking to each other, as if they didn't notice anything.
In the distant passage of the pyramid, there seemed to be a trace of black mist spreading out from inside.
