The Hell Tortoise bit his lower lip and tried his best to keep up with them. However, he was still quite a distance away from them. He had thought that after the harsh training his father had given him, he would be qualified to replace his father and fight side by side with his comrades. But now, he suddenly realized how ridiculous his thoughts were. Not to mention how powerful his father's comrades were, even the bookstore boy who looked much younger than him was also running as if he was flying, leading the way at the front of the team. Recalling his father's instructions, he couldn't help but ask himself," What exactly do you have to be proud of?
Although he was affected by his emotions and the distance between him and the team gradually widened, the Hell Tortoise did not slow down. Instead, he mobilized all his strength to speed up and follow the team. He did not want to give his father's comrades a bad impression on his first mission.
Just as he was trying his best to catch up with the team, he suddenly realized that everyone in front of him had stopped in their tracks. Were they waiting for him? The Nether Tortoise's face was ashen. Even so, he did not dare to slack off at all and quickly used this time gap to catch up. When he finally met up with the others, he realized that Captain Thunder Wolf and the others were not waiting for him. The Nether Tortoise heaved a sigh of relief and felt relieved.
Thunder Wolf and the rest of the group were all looking at the boy from the bookstore who was leading the way. He stopped by the city wall of the City of Qi, his eyes flickering slightly as he stared at the city wall that was missing a big mouth but was sealed with wooden planks and steel nails. The sealed wooden planks did not completely cover the gap. There was still a gap between the sealed wooden planks that could only allow one person to enter and exit.
"Why aren't you leaving?" The Horned Dolphin touched the long wooden box with the spear on its back. After confirming that it had not bumped into anything during the journey, it looked at the boy and asked in confusion. He was also very surprised by the boy's speed. Even in the group that hadn't formed yet, there were only a few people who had this kind of speed at this age.
The boy didn't answer. He just slowly pointed at the gap in the city wall and tilted his head to look at the Thunder Wolf behind him.
"We can go now." Thunder Wolf put away the black metal plate and slowly turned around to look at the boy who was leading the way. The boy nodded at the Thunder Wolf and leaped into the gap.
" That person just now…" While they were moving forward, the cricket bee deliberately approached Brahman Snake. While hinting with its eyes, it voiced its doubts.
"The secret guards are actually the people who create and issue missions. Many times, mercenaries are also monitored and managed by them.”The Horned Dolphin heard the cricket bee's question and answered.
"Save the questions for when we get back.”The Yin Fish passed by the three of them and directly surpassed them. Brahman Snake nodded at the cricket bee and quickened his pace. At the same time, he couldn't help but look at the bookstore boy who was moving agilely in the forest in front of him."Even he doesn't want to delay for even a breath. Could it be that he has really reached that stage?”Thinking of this, Fan Snake's eyes narrowed. Horned Dolphin and Cricket Bee behind him did not say anything more. They also closed their mouths tightly and hurried on. However, this also made the Hell Tortoise behind them a little embarrassed.
"So fast!" The Nether Tortoise clearly felt that the time it took to breathe was getting shorter and shorter. It felt as if it had been forgotten. He had already used all his strength to chase after them, but the distance between him and the team was still increasing. As time passed, his stamina and mental strength were slowly worn away. He couldn't help but ask himself if this was the source of his grandfather and father's pride. What use am I? Just as he was in a daze and his will was wavering, the team that was advancing at high speed stopped for some reason. This made him seem to see a glimmer of darkness. He knew that he must not let go of this opportunity. He used the last of his strength to chase after them. Just as he was about to reach them, he suddenly staggered, causing his body to lose balance and fall forward. The Hell Tortoise fell heavily to the ground. It slid two steps forward under the buffer of the sand and stones on the ground, and came to the side of everyone in an extremely sorry state. He gritted his teeth and quickly got up from the ground. He did not care about the dust on his body and looked at the Thunder Wolf who was leading the team indifferently.
The Thunder Wolf looked at him coldly, and then looked into the distance. The Nether Tortoise's heart tightened, and he lowered his gaze. However, when he followed everyone's gaze and looked into the distance, the unwillingness and frustration in his heart were swept away, replaced by absolute shock and surprise!
