Chapter 335: Chapter 80 Danger! _3

He knew Assad said this with good intentions.

If it worked out, Link would get some credit, and if it failed, the blame wouldn’t fall on Link.

On this journey deep into enemy territory, Link had already felt Assad’s care a lot.

If this continued, he would lose track of how many favours he owed Elise, making it even harder to repay in the future.

He couldn’t possibly sacrifice himself, could he?

If he’s such a loser, he’ll end up with a knife in him!

“Captain, I have a less than certain deduction…”

Having made his decision, Link stepped over to Boss Otis and spoke quietly.

However, before Link could finish speaking, Boss Otis didn’t respond.

Listening to Link’s words from the side and venting his emotions, Lokan suddenly interrupted, sneering, “If you’re not certain don’t blabber nonsense. Can you take responsibility if something goes wrong? I’ve put up with you for a long time on this journey. Who among these people isn’t of higher level and seniority than you, and more knowledgeable than you? Who gave you the right to do all the talking? It seems like you’re the only one who can study organisms and develop potions.”

“Lokan!”

Boss Otis stared at Lokan, his murderous gaze was intense, his tone coldly rebuking:

“Go stand over there and calm down. Don’t delay my work.

And from what I remember, more than one person has warned you not to ignore the impact of body refinement on your rationality, but you never listened, now what?

Can you still effectively control your emotions?

Don’t turn yourself into a wild beast!”

Lokan opened his mouth but eventually didn’t completely lose his sanity like the Deformed Fairy, and reluctantly suppressed his boiling emotions.

Grumpily, he turned around and went to a corner to beat the ground and vent his anger.

Body-refining wizards are very susceptible to emotional volatility during the process of refining and modifying the body, especially if they lack the nourishment of a special potion. It makes their moods unstable and often extreme.

Why does the Serene Wizard indulge Lokan so much?

Because she originally promised to help Lokan refine such a special potion, but eventually couldn’t develop it.

To a certain extent, Lokan’s personality and behaviour changes are the responsibility of the Serene Wizard.

Why does Sage Palo ignore Lokan’s “provocation”?

Because she does not indulge in petty squabbles.

“Go ahead.”

Seeing that Lokan could control himself, Boss Otis put away his murderous intent and intimidation, turned his head to look at Link, and signaled that Link should disregard Lokan’s interruption.

“Okay.”

Link nodded, paid no mind to the previous interruption, and proceeded to state his deduction.

After listening, Boss Otis didn’t comment, but went into deep thought.

Link lacks understanding of level 4 extraordinary life. He doesn’t know that after the second Life Essence Transition, the soul can exist independently of the body.

Physical aspects, such as the negative factors Link mentioned about incomplete biological transformation and enhancement, serious injuries, problematic evil rituals leading to life form changes, are not enough to cause the Fairy King’s soul to split.

Therefore, Link’s deduction is invalid!

There was an error, but Boss Otis didn’t undervalue Link because of this. Instead, he saw more clearly why Sage Palo and the Serene Wizard valued Link.

Not everyone has the courage to infer the unknown based on known facts.

And not everyone can risk stating their uncertain deductions in the current situation.

Courage, responsibility, fearlessness of authority, a willingness to explore the unknown, along with talent and mentality. As long as Link Grande doesn’t die halfway, he is certain to achieve something great in the not-too-distant future.

Moreover, although Link’s deduction is invalid, it served as a reminder to Boss Otis.

The Fairy King is seriously injured and on the brink of death, resorting to an evil ritual for recovery.

Now that the ritual was disrupted, not only has the injury not healed, but the Fairy King didn’t even dare to attack the special forces team and could only flee quickly after a bluff.

What does this mean?

It means the Fairy King has lost his combat power!

So, where can the Fairy King in this state run to?

“Let’s leave here first.”

Boss Otis, having made a plan in his mind, made up his mind.

The special forces immediately activated stealth mode, got into a search formation, and exited the lowest level.

The commotion in the underground maze had long alarmed the two groups of fairies fighting each other.

The Second Prince, severely injured, forced himself out of his sickbed, ignoring both his guilt-ridden Fairy King’s Guards and the “new generation” of fairies.

Taking his own guard, he entered the underground maze, checked the situation and searched for enemies.

The special forces team and the Fairy Guard led by the Second Prince passed by each other.

What the Second Prince was left to inspect were just a series of big holes, the nearly completely destroyed lowest level hall, and the ruins of the stone platform.

“Search, find them all!”

The Second Prince roared in anger, triggering his injured lungs, and started coughing violently.

The “demons” from a Different World dared to come and go freely under his nose, disrupting his father’s recovery.

This is simply too arrogant!

The special forces reached the surface and avoided the two fairy groups still at a standoff, returning to their previous high ground.

“Contact the front line command post, request a covering bombardment of the underground maze on the grounds of suspecting that the Fairy King hasn’t fled far and is still hiding in the vicinity.”

Boss Otis carelessly glanced in the direction of the underground maze and instructed Assad accordingly.

“Yes.”

Assad, too, didn’t consider the lives of the fairies on the ground and those in the underground maze.

These fairies, to the Wizard World, to the Palo Sage Army, are not good fairies; they belong to the cleanup targets.

Being killed by a covering bombardment isn’t considered collateral damage.

Assad contacted the front line command post, reported the situation, and submitted the application.

No one noticed, that under the transparency of his visor, Link’s face subtly distorted a bit.

An almost indiscernible black shadow slipped from Link’s shadow along his ankle, calf, thigh, and spine, swiftly entering Link’s brain.

The defense of the “Mind Closure Technique” was at its maximum, and yet it was still broken through.

The Fairy King’s soul subtly invaded Link’s Sea of Consciousness, rapidly hurtling toward the spherical Meditation Technique Rune Structure.

It wanted to “possess”!
