Chapter 574 - Discovered A Spy
Klein sighed softly and reached out to grab Macbeth"s arm.
As for Gray, he grabbed Macbeth"s other arm. The two of them pushed Macbeth into the door!
Macbeth never expected to be ambushed by two people. Before he could react, one of his feet had already stepped in.
And by the time Macbeth reacted and wanted to retreat, it was already too late!
There was another loud rumble, as though some mechanism had been opened.
Immediately following that, countless bows and arrows were shot out!
Klein and Gray stood on both sides of the door and basically avoided the terrifying arrows.
Macbeth was different. With one foot in, his entire body was exposed at the door. He was in considerable danger.
Klein didn"t seem to have any intention of rescuing him. Instead, he stared at Macbeth as though he was watching a show.
Macbeth couldn"t continue acting when he saw this. He leaped into the air and grabbed the handrail on the door. Only by hovering in the air did he dodge the fatal attack.
A few seconds later, the swishing sound came to an abrupt halt. It looked like he had dodged the danger.
Seeing Macbeth hanging in mid-air, a cold smile appeared on Klein"s face.
As expected, his guess was right. This guy was a hidden person with ill intentions!
Gray patted his palm. "Not bad. Just now, you said that you were powerless and didn"t have any offensive or defensive abilities. I didn"t expect your technique to be so fast. Your dodging isn"t bad either?"
At that moment, an ugly expression appeared on Macbeth"s face. He flipped over and landed on the ground.
He tapped his toes on the ground without making a sound. His movement technique was indeed quite good. Even Klein couldn"t catch up to him.
Macbeth"s previously weak expression was swept away. He stood up with determination.
"I didn"t expect that I wouldn"t be able to hide it from you after hiding it for so long. Did you discover that there"s something wrong with me early on?"
Klein and James separated and maintained a certain distance from Macbeth.
They didn"t know Macbeth"s exact ident.i.ty, but they knew that this person was definitely not trustworthy and was extremely dangerous.
"That"s right. I felt that there was something wrong with you from the beginning. Do you remember when we first met and I asked you a few questions? You gave some ingenious answers, but they also revealed many flaws..."
Klein was certain that the river only flowed in one direction. It was absolutely impossible for it to flow backward from another direction.
In other words, if Macbeth had indeed fallen into the river, he could have rushed into the second dimension.
He and Klein were definitely on the same path!
However, Klein felt that the injuries on Macbeth"s body didn"t seem fake. Some of them were so deep that his bones could be seen.
Therefore, he didn"t expose him. He wanted to see what kind of background this young man had.
"Also, your injuries are very serious. I believe that your coma isn"t fake, but with such serious injuries, you wouldn"t be able to stand on your feet in front of an ordinary person who doesn"t even have the strength to truss a chicken. However, seeing that you"ve recovered so quickly, it proves that your physique is very good!"
"Of course, the most important thing was what you said. "I"m not the owner of this place, so why would I lie to you?" This is a statement that exposed yourself."
"How did you know that this place was controlled by someone? And how did you determine what I was thinking?"
Hearing Klein"s explanation, Macbeth"s face revealed a look of relief. Meeting such a smart person, even if he was exposed, he wouldn"t be wronged.
He sighed lightly and patted the dust off his clothes. His aura was completely different from before.
"That"s right. I did lie to you from the beginning, and I hid my true strength... but there"s one thing that I didn"t lie about. I have the same goal as you!"
Gray snorted coldly. "You"re lying to a ghost. The same goal as us? You used this method to trick us. Lying and hiding is nothing, but what you did just now was clearly to kill us both!"
As he said that, he pointed at the bows and arrows on the ground.
Macbeth sniffed. "I admit that I did hold back from the both of you, and I never really wanted to team up with the both of you. In the beginning, I just wanted to make use of you. I feel that the both of you are pretty good, so you can be my shield!"
It turned out that Macbeth was a scheming person. He did not trust anyone, but only trusted his own strength.
Therefore, he would coax and make use of the people around him. He was very cold and arrogant, and he was the cold-hearted person of legend.
"My path is indeed the same as yours, which is why I"ve suffered so many injuries. None of this is fake, but I"m not here to save anyone. I just want to find the treasure hidden here!"
Upon hearing the word "treasure", Klein"s pupils constricted violently.
As expected, some of the rumors he had heard were true.
This forbidden land was so dangerous, and there were so many people who risked their lives to interfere. There must be a motive behind it.
In the legends, this place not only had treasures that could rival a country, but it also had priceless treasures.
As long as they obtained these things, they could basically reign supreme in this s.p.a.ce.
Saxe was nothing to him. To him, he was just an ant. There was nothing in this world that money couldn"t solve.
"So, you risked your life to come to this place. You"re no different from the others. You didn"t come here to save people, but to find treasures."
"You"re afraid of your fellow travelers. They have the same goal as you, and they also want these treasures. You don"t trust anyone, and you even set these people as your targets to eliminate?"
Gray curled his lips. He had seen ruthless people before, but he had never seen someone so shrewd at such a young age.
He sighed lightly. "Since that"s the case, then we shouldn"t conspire against each other. We"re indeed here to save people, and we have no interest in those treasures at all. Let"s just go our separate ways!"
Hearing the other party"s words, Macbeth was suddenly stunned.
Perhaps it was because he had seen too much of mutual deception, and he didn"t trust anyone around him, but the two people in front of him had indeed changed his opinion of them.
Klein"s selfless behavior towards him had already made Macbeth feel a little relieved.
Hearing Gray say that, he began to have new ideas.
He sized up the two people in front of him. "Are you really not interested in the treasure at all? Are you here to save people?"
Gray was a little impatient. "We haven"t become angry yet, but you"re questioning us and refusing to answer! What our goal is has nothing to do with you. You go your own way, and we"ll go our own way!"
As he said this, Gray grabbed Klein"s shoulder, afraid that he would drag him in another direction.. No matter what, he had to stay away from this thoughtful fellow.
