Initially, Chris had been quite happy thinking that Jack had not seen through his plans. However, he slowly felt like
something was off.
Jack seemed elated to let him waste time which caused Chris to be shocked.
Jack was not stupid. He naturally had his own goals in doing that, so what was he planning?
Just as Chris’ heart was beating frantically, Edward finally managed to suppress his injuries. He had one hand on the
ground, and his face was a little red.
He forced himself up. Even though his injuries were not completely recovered, he was no longer in danger of dying.
He had to stand up to face Jack even if he did not want to!
Edward was not as arrogant as Chris. He had just temporarily suppressed his injuries. If he did not get better
treatment quickly, his injuries would definitely flare again. If that happened, then everything was over.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAt that moment, Edward was very clear-minded. He knew of his injuries and knew what could end up killing him.
Even if they managed to kill Jack, there was still Chris waiting for him. The chances of him leaving the isolated
space were less than thirty percent.
He was already prepared to die, it was just that he was incredibly reluctant. If he did not die, then his future would
have been so bright!
Just thinking about that, Edward could not help but let out a bitter smile as he tossed those thoughts aside. Even if
he would not be able to leave the isolated space forever, he still wanted to drag Jack down with him!
If it were not for Jack, he would have fought a final battle against Chris, and stood a fifty percent chance of walking
out alive!
Yet, Jack had changed everything, pushing him into the deep end. Edward put all his hatred and anger onto Jack
and started to look at Jack like he was looking at his mortal enemy.
Jack suddenly let out a laugh as he looked up at Edward and said, “It looks like you’ve successfully suppressed your
injuries. You’re not bad. I thought that I would still have to talk to Chris for even longer…”
The moment that was said, Chris could not help but shudder as his eyes widened. His heart beat faster.
Jack really did see through their plans!
Then why did Jack play along with them?
Did he want to find out if Edward would be able to suppress Edward’s injuries?
Did he want Edward to work with Chris against him?
After those thoughts surfaced in Chris’ mind, fear started creeping in.
Chris had always been someone who did whatever he wanted thanks to his talent. He had never been afraid of
anyone and had never shrunk back from anyone. Yet, he was feeling fear toward Jack at that moment.
He looked at Jack like he was looking at a demon who had just crawled out of a deep hole!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmChris loudly said, “So you want to fight two against one?”
Jack nodded seriously, “There’s no meaning to fighting one on one. The two of you are quite decent. You can help
me train!”
The moment that was said, Chris’ and Edward’s expressions darkened.
If that had been said before they entered the isolated space, the two of them would have treated it as a joke. Yet,
they were forced to believe it this time.
During their earlier exchange, the two of them had not utilized their full potential, but they were uncertain as to
how much of Jack’s power he used.
Listening to Jack’s tone, it seemed like Jack felt even the two of them would not be difficult. Everything he said
showed how confident he was.
The two of them gulped at the same time, regretting taking part in the slaughter gambit immensely. The two of
them had been in the upper echelons of their respective clans in terms of talent and skill. As long as they survived,
they would have been even better after they left the Whirling World!
