Slumdog Billionaire Husband

Chapter 922 Die or Surrender
Anabel’s face turned slightly red upon hearing their conversation as she stood nearby them but quickly composed herself and
joined Valery and Spencer in helping to treat the injured people.
While Anabel possessed a water attribute that had some healing properties, its effect was not particularly noticeable.
Sheryl appeared to be in better condition after a brief treatment and some rest. Her flawless cheek now had a hint of redness.
The injuries she sustained were internal, and Valery only provided her with a brief treatment. The rest of her recovery would
depend on her own abilities.
With a complex expression, Sheryl rose to her feet and gazed at Anabel, Gerald, and the others. She said, “When I arrived on
this island, I fought against all of you. But in the end, you all saved me, and this was out of my expectation. I’m indebted to you
and don’t know how to repay your kindness. If you ever need any assistance in the future, you can come to Infinito and find me. I
will do my best to help!”
Upon hearing this, Gerald remained unfazed. He felt that his involvement with this world was limited to the Four Ancient Families
and that everything he had experienced so far, such as his journey with the Pierce family of Rime City and the current training,
were merely incidents that occurred along the way.
After dealing with the Four Ancient Families and investigating the truth regarding Nether Palace, he planned to return to Earth.
After all, he really didn’t like the system in this world.
However, there was a look of joy on Anabel’s face when she heard Sheryl’s words.
She had hoped for this outcome. Anabel had assisted Sheryl, Benning, and Kristian with the intention of having them be
indebted to her.
Anabel’s intention was to befriend Sheryl, Benning, and Kristian, as they were likely to become influential leaders in their
respective forces in the future.
Despite the joy she felt, Anabel downplayed the favor, saying, “It’s nothing too serious. Besides... We also sense that something
is amiss with the training grounds. The beasts’ behavior has become quite unusual.”

Sheryl nodded in agreement and added, “I’ve noticed that too. The beasts seem to be congregating towards the center of the
island. The fact that it’s happening during the time when the Eight Forces are undergoing their training makes it feels unusual.”
Benning cursed and exclaimed, “This is incredibly suspicious. Do you think someone is controlling these beasts to lure us, the
Eight Forces’ geniuses, to the center of the island, only to ambush and kill us?”
Kristian glanced at him speechlessly and said, “Are you out of your mind? Where did you get the idea of someone controlling the
beasts? Besides, I doubt anyone dares to offend us, the Eight Forces.”
After saying that, his eyes glimmered with excitement. He suggested, “Do you think there could be a treasure in the center of the
island? Perhaps something that could be used to craft a Divine Weapon?”
The moment he mentioned it, the rest of the group’s eyes brightened with excitement.
Upon seeing this, Gerald let out a sigh as he knew he couldn’t say anything about Brigid.
He was fully aware that there was someone who could manipulate the beasts, and that person was currently outside the island.
Anabel shook her head and said, “What you guys are suggesting is not very feasible. Even if there are such materials, it’s better
not to get involved with them. We should focus on our training, and once we’re done, we can inform our elders and let them
decide what to do.”
Sheryl nodded in agreement and said, “I agree. The cards I have now are almost used up. Initially, I wanted to compete for first
place, but given the current situation, I would be content with making it to the top ten. My plan is to go to the altar first and leave
this place once my injuries have healed.”
“Why don’t... we go together?” asked Kristian as his eyes lit up slightly.
Anabel glanced over at Gerald and shook her head, then explained, “I won’t be joining. We don’t have enough points yet. I think
it’s better for us to leave this place and try to obtain some cards outside.”
Benning and Kristian, both interested in getting closer to Sheryl, readily agreed to Anabel’s suggestion about leaving. They
hoped that more people would join them as it would increase their chances of spending more time with Sheryl.
Sheryl did not say much after seeing their reactions.
They conversed for a while regarding the beasts’ peculiar behavior, but they were unable to determine the cause.

Afterward, Gerald and the other three said their goodbyes to the other three teams and ventured deeper into the jungle after
exiting the cave.
Having spoken with the three teams, they realized that something was amiss. They decided to continue their journey now that
they had enough points to secure a spot in the top ten and hoped that they could get lucky in finding more cards.
They also intended to head to the altar and then leave the island.
As for their rank, they planned to leave it to their luck.
The four of them hurriedly made their way toward the altar located in the center of the island.
As they progressed past the fifth level, the number of beasts around them noticeably increased, slowing their pace. When they
had no other option, they had to engage in battles with the beasts.
Thus, the four of them steadily made their way toward the altar.
At the same time, someone was on Mount Moores, the main star of Havotune.
Moores meant bad luck in this world.
Hence, Mount Moores was a mountain of bad luck. It was huge and located at the border of three countries, Solein Kingdom,
Herren Kingdom, and Ghosn Kingdom.
ter 922 D. or Surrender
The mountain range had prevented any chance of war between the three countries as their ground troops could not pass
through
As for the sky, it was also the same. The sky above Mount Moores was forbidden.
This mountain range was infamous as a forbidden area for humans, with less than one in ten people able to enter and exit alive.
Even so, there were still countless Treasure Hunters and Pioneers that kept entering this mountain range.
Gurr was a Flame Decayer, but he was not the kind of Flame Decayer who rose from a big family. He had no background and
grew up in an ordinary family. He reached the level of Flame Decay by himself.

In this world, Flame Decayer could live a good life in Havotune.
However, Gurr was a Treasure Hunter, and his path to success was paved with encountering crisis after crisis during the process
of treasure hunting, and then breaking through each one.
Knowing that this mountain was considered a forbidden land for humans, Gurr felt that he should take on the challenge.
He had been exploring Mount Moores for over a month and had already reaped a significant amount of treasures. He stepped on
a valuable herb on the ground and carefully collected it, placing it in a box and then storing it in a large pocket on his back.
“I should have enough now,” he said to himself, patting the two bags on the ground contentedly. With that, he made the decision
to head back home.
“I’m pleading with you, Aarav! Please, let me go back to Earth! I hate this world and want to return to Earth. I’m begging you!”
Suddenly, he heard someone wailing from a distance.
Gurr possessed an attribute-related ability that enhanced his hearing. His sense of hearing was exceptional, and he could
perceive even the slightest sounds.
With this attribute, he was able to avoid the wild beasts easily.
However, when he heard the wailing just now, he couldn’t identify what language that was. It wasn’t the universal language of
Havotune, and he couldn’t quite understand it.
“There’s someone else here? I’ll go over and have a look.” He swallowed his saliva nervously. Gurr carefully made his way
toward the direction of the voice with two large sacks on his back.
Shortly thereafter, he came across a tired-looking woman on her knees, pleading with a man in his thirties.
Gurr was taken aback when he sensed the young man’s power. He seemed to be incredibly strong, even more so than the
supreme Flame Decayer he had ever encountered.
“I’d rather not get involved in this.” Feeling a tinge of fear, he swallowed his saliva. He considered turning around and slipping
away.
As soon as he turned around to leave, he suddenly plopped down on the ground. Without his knowledge, the young man
dressed in white appeared behind him with a grin on his face.

Then, the young man said, “Die... or surrender!”
