“Die for me!”

This time, the dagger pierced into the neck of the hungry wolf that was biting on his arm.

One stab after another, the neck of the hungry wolf was quickly turned into a bloody mess. When Su Chen attacked, the hungry wolf also went crazy from the pain and bit off a piece of meat on Su Chen’s arm with one bite.

However, it quickly died because of the large amount of blood lost from its neck. It fell from the tree.

Roar!

At this moment, the fresh blood that spilled from Su Chen’s wound also stimulated the surrounding wolves. It immediately caused a commotion.

The wolves on his left and right let out a low roar. Their ferocious eyes stared at him as they pounced on him.

He once again picked up the dagger. The pain in his arm caused him to feel a little dizzy but he still clenched his teeth and persevered.

The two hungry wolves pounced on him at the same time. They also brought along a fierce wind as they whistled beside his ears. Su Chen, who was holding the dagger, felt a little powerless. He used the last of his strength to hold the dagger, stabbing it into the body of the wolf beside him. Under the force of the wolf’s pounce, Su Chen was sent flying.

His foot missed and his body fell to the ground. However, Su Chen managed to escape the attack of the other wolf because of this.

Bang!

When he fell, he broke several thin branches in a row.

Although he had fallen from such a high tree, there was still the body of the wolf that he had killed earlier to cushion his fall. Therefore, it only hurt but did not kill him.

When he saw a wolf fall from the sky and land on his body, he immediately spat out another mouthful of blood.

He looked around at the surrounding wolves that had come up and the wolf leader who was leading them to jump down from the tree branches. They were getting closer and closer to him.

“Am I going to die?”

This time, he could not even move a finger. His arm was bleeding continuously, and his consciousness was becoming blurry bit by bit.

Seeing that the wolf’s mouth was already open, and its mouth was full of sharp teeth that were pressing against his neck, he also gave up. He thought to himself, ‘Looks like I’m going to die here today.’

The next moment, he lost consciousness and fainted.

The moment he fainted, he seemed to have seen the wolves scatter in all directions. They were all whimpering softly as if something had appeared that made them extremely afraid.

However, his consciousness soon disappeared.

When he regained consciousness, he was shocked when he opened his eyes and saw the scene in front of him clearly.

“Where am I?”

He suddenly sat up and looked at the scene. He was currently in a sealed room that was dozens of square meters in size. In the middle of the room, there was a luxurious crystal ball chandelier in the middle.

When he saw the chandelier, Su Chen hurriedly rubbed his eyes with both hands. The chandelier that was emitting light was not piercing to the eyes. Instead, it was very gentle. It was right in front of him. Su Chen wanted to reach out to touch it, but he could not reach it.

“Eh, my hand’s fine.”

At this moment, he realized that his arm which had been bitten by a hungry wolf had somehow recovered. Moreover, his body had also recovered to its best condition.

“It’s so magical.”

He touched his arm and muttered to himself, “After I fainted, what exactly happened? Did I return to the palace?”

Then, Yousi walked in with his food. When Su Chen saw him, he immediately asked, “Yousi! What happened?”

Yousi put the food aside with a heavy heart. He said slowly, “That day, you ran into the forest when you sensed something was wrong and didn’t inform us when you were in danger. If we didn’t look for you, you would’ve died there.”

“So you came to save me.”

“What else?”

Yousi rolled his eyes at Su Chen.

“So we’re back in Marhaz now?”

Yousi did not say anything but nodded. Su Chen felt his heart tighten when he saw Yousi’s expression.

“Did Marl give you the thing as promised? Can we go back to Haiping Village now?”

Su Chen asked anxiously because he had had enough of being afraid in this world. Now that he had a certain amount of BR coins, he could go back to the real world. However, Yousi was silent for a long time before he shook his head.

“Don’t you think that the most important thing was the few monsters we encountered on the way here compared to the bandits? Those creatures aren’t creatures that can survive in the environment near a town like Marhaz. Moreover, why were they coincidentally appearing around us?”

“You mean? All of this was planned? So Marl didn’t plan on giving you the crystal either?”

Yousi nodded and continued, “On the day he brought you back, he pretended to receive us and settled you down. When I mentioned the crystal, he said that the reward ceremony would only begin when you woke up.”

“But you think that this is his delaying tactic, right?”

Yousi did not say anything, but at this time, a servant knocked on the door and entered.

“Lord Marl would like to have a chat.”

Knowing so quickly that Su Chen had woken only made him feel a chill go down his spine. He felt that he had to quickly solve the problem and leave this place.

They were brought to a magnificent hall. Marl, who was standing on the high platform, was sitting upright and waiting for them. When they came closer, they saw Minida standing beside Marl with her head lowered.

Su Chen and Yousi knelt down to salute Marl according to etiquette. Before they raised their heads, Lotte also walked in and knelt down.

“Your humble servant greets you, monarch Marl.”

Marl narrowed his eyes and smiled, holding the walking stick in his hand slightly.

“Good! I didn’t misjudge you three warriors! You should receive the highest honor of our country!”

Su Chen did not want to play word games with him anymore, so he immediately said, “My lord, the three of us don’t need any fame and fortune. We only need you to give us the crystal as you promised.”

After saying that, Su Chen could clearly feel the atmosphere freeze. Although he knew that Marl definitely would not give them the crystal so easily, only by saying that would there be hope.

“I did say that… But you know, this reward isn’t just the crystal. There’s also a reward that must be given to me, Marl, to marry my daughter and become a warrior who only fights for our country. Can you do that? And who should I choose among you?” Su Chen could hear it. Marl had complicated a simple question and turned the statement into a question. He successfully avoided the topic and threw the question at him at the same time..
