Beneath Eastern City, in the crypt.
Placido had prepared a table full of dishes for Ranjeet. After that, he called Eurydice and Jacindo into his room.
Placido looked at his daughter and his disciple. He frowned and asked, "What happened today?"
"Dad." There was a tearful tone in Eurydice's voice. "Brother Zhang betrayed us..."
"Don't lie to me!" Placido interrupted his daughter's words directly. "Tell me what really happened. Ranjeet is not here, tell me!"
"Master, we had no choice."Jacindo took a deep breath and said, "Our granary has been discovered by those bounty hunters. They wanted to take us back to exchange for the bounty. We could only sacrifice Syl. Anyway, he is useless. There is no use in keeping him."
"Nonsense!" Placido was furious. He slapped his hand on the handle of his chair.
"Master! I just made the right choice!" Jacindo quickly said, "If I didn't sacrifice Syl, my junior sister and I wouldn't be able to come back."
Placido shook his head. "I'm not talking about your choice. You shouldn't say that Syl betrayed us in front of Ranjeet. You should find other excuses instead. If Ranjeet had a good relationship with Syl, how could we make this up? This time, it's all about our good fortune. Ranjeet is not a close friend of Syl. Otherwise, I'm afraid that we wouldn't be able to keep this talent."
"I understand, master." Jacindo nodded.
"Dad, what should we do next?" Eurydice looked at her father. "Syl is now betrayed by us. He will definitely tell where we are hiding. We can't stay here any longer."
"Then we won't stay here any longer!" A vicious look appeared in Placido's eyes. "We've been hiding for long enough. Now that the god doesn't want us to hide anymore, let's just walk out of here and swagger into Eastern City!"
"Enter Eastern City?" Jacindo was shocked. "Master, if we go out now, well be walking right into the trap! Those people from the Colver Family, they want us to show ourselves."
"Haha, this Recluse World does not belong to the Colver Family! In the end, we still need to thank Henry from the outside world!" Placido had a confident smile on his lips. "That Henry was the guardian of the European Bishop Morvyn. Some time ago, the governor of Grale City had contacted me and wanted to form an alliance with me. The previous bishop of Antarctica died in the hands of Henry. The new bishop was supported by Robbin. Now we also have an alliance. Although we are not yet the opponent of the Colver Family, we still want to enter the city. Even the Colver Family can't stop us! Inform them to get ready. We are going into the city today!"
Both Eurydice and Jacindo's faces were full of excitement. If they could live in the city and live under the sun, of course, they would not want to stay hidden like rats!
When Placido announced this order to enter the city, all the people living in the cave were cheering!
Everyone began to pack up their belongings. An hour later, everyone only brought some necessities. They did not walk out of the dog hole at the corner of the city wall, but they took another path.
A few thousand metres away from Eastern City, there was a pool. Surrounding the pool, there were many demonic beasts. In the pool, there were also many mutated demonic beasts living there. A five-metre-long giant crocodile was the overlord of this pool.
A wave suddenly appeared in the calm pool.
The giant crocodile lying quietly at the edge of the pool suddenly opened its eyes. Its pair of blood-
red eyes were full of bloodthirstiness.
The giant crocodile realized that it had prey in the pool. Its huge body rushed into the pool at a speed that was completely inconsistent with its size. Soon, a pool of blood coming up from the bottom of the pool would be seen.
Then, someone's head emerged from the pond. It was Placido.
Placido held the giant crocodile's tail in his hand and dragged the dead overlord of the pool.
Behind Placido, figures emerged from the pond one after another. In the blink of an eye, the surrounding demonic beasts fled in all directions in terror.
