Nowhere to Run
The black-robed guards of Moon Lake Castle were all elite Highgods who had been carefully selected.
Crompton’s team of three Fiends, facing that single black-robed guard, had only won a narrow victory. But of course, the main reason was that Crompton himself was too weak, while the other two Fiends were only average for highgods.
“I just killed one, and now two more appear? If they catch me, I’ll definitely die!” Crompton was terrified senseless, and he wildly fled out from the corridor.
“What’s going on?” Crompton’s face changed.
The tunnel up ahead had been sealed!
“How is this possible? How could this tunnel have been sealed? It should have an exit!” How could Crompton have imagined that when Linley’s group of four fled, to prevent him from pursuing and attacking, they had moved the wall over and shut it?
Crompton was currently fleeing at high speed!
