Chapter 163 - Was A Success, And There Was Bad News
Vincent chatted with Princ.i.p.al Jace about some training matters. The two of them then left the meditation room together.
As soon as they left, they saw Mosshull walking towards them with a menacing aura.
"Vincent, you neglected your duty and caused all those humans to run away. What crime should you be guilty of?"
Mosshull walked up to him and started to accuse him.
"What? Those humans escaped? That"s impossible!"
Vincent was ecstatic inside; however, he did not believe it at all.
After seeing this, Princ.i.p.al Jace had already figured it out. He said with an unfriendly look, "Where could a group of weak humans escape to? They could be captured by the army outside the Flying Snow Castle!"
Mosshull shouted coldly, "What a joke! What can I say if they could be captured? Those humans escaped from the secret tunnel inside the Flying Snow Castle. By the time they got out of the secret tunnel, they would have long left the range of Flying Snow Wilderness!"
After hearing what Mosshull had said, Vincent praised Mosshull for his considerate plan. This time, his plan would definitely succeed!
When Vincent decided to pretend to capture his teammates, he already had a plan. He deliberately provoked Mosshull and forced him to release them.
This was because only those who Mosshull wanted to release could escape Flying Snow Wilderness. Therefore, Vincent had to take a risk.
However, it turned out that Mosshull was more stupid than Vincent imagined. Not only did he released Angelina and the others, he even released them out of Flying Snow Wilderness!
Vincent suppressed the joy in his heart. At that moment, he still had to play along with Mosshull.
"The security of the prison is absolutely not a problem. The matter of the humans escaping has absolutely nothing to do with me. Please follow me to the second underground level to take a look!" said Vincent with certainty.
Princ.i.p.al Jace naturally supported Vincent. Mosshull was anxious to prove Vincent"s guilt, so he naturally agreed to Vincent"s request.
"Let"s go!"
The group of people hurried to the second underground level. They looked at the empty cell and then at each other.
"The lock of this cell cannot be opened without a key, right?"
Mosshull pointed at the open cell door and questioned Vincent with a cold gaze.
Vincent"s expression was ugly as he said, "I"m not the only one who has the key to the cell!"
"What a joke. Could it be that I"m the one who released these humans?" asked Mosshull with a cold smile.
"I think you"re the one who released them!"
Vincent turned around and shouted while pointing at Mosshull.
Mosshull had already prepared his excuse and said calmly, "Nonsense, this cell is full of gifts for Lord Gajero and the humans that I personally captured. Why would I release them? You must have neglected your duty and neglected your guard!"
Vincent was at a loss for words, but he was secretly laughing in his heart. Mosshull had prepared his words so well that there were no flaws at all.
However, in the face of such a sudden incident, there were no flaws but the biggest flaw!
Princ.i.p.al Jace said coldly from the side, "Hmph, you say it so nicely. It seems that you are quite willing to go through with this in order to frame my student!"
Mosshull pretended to not understand him. He shook his head and said, "No matter what, it"s Vincent"s duty to guard the second underground level. Now that the humans have been released, he must take full responsibility. If there"s not enough evidence to prove that he didn"t do it, then it"s better to kill the wrong person than let the wrong person go!"
"You!"
Princ.i.p.al Jace glared at him. Psionic power was surging all over his body.
Mosshull met Princ.i.p.al Jace"s gaze without the slightest fear and said, "Desperate times call for desperate measures. I believe that the Princ.i.p.al would not wish for any unsafe factors to appear in Flying Snow Castle during Lord Gajero"s return!"
"What? Lord Gajero is returning?" asked Princ.i.p.al Jace with a face full of shock.
Mosshull said proudly, "That"s right! I"ve just received Lord Gajero"s reply. He"s already preparing to return. I estimate that in less than a week, Lord Gajero will once again descend into Beast World!"
After hearing this, Vincent was greatly shocked. He did not expect such a huge loophole to appear outside of the plan!
The Bear King who had his heart in his heart was also a thunder hand baby who did not even have full intelligence. Once Gajero returned, all the preparations and plans would be in vain!
After thinking of this, Vincent knew that he had to clear his name. Only then could he continue to move freely in the Flying Snow Castle and seize the opportunity to stop Gajero"s return!
"Wait! I can prove that I have nothing to do with this matter!" said Vincent confidently.
Vincent stopped Princ.i.p.al Jace who had almost made a move.
Mosshull sneered indifferently, "You can prove it? What proof do you have?"
Vincent turned around and looked at Mosshull as if he was looking at an idiot. He then said indifferently, "First of all! Those humans escaped through a secret pa.s.sage. Although I have the key to the prison, I don"t know where the secret pa.s.sage is, and no one has told me about it before, so I don"t fulfill all the conditions to commit a crime!"
"Secondly, when I left the second underground level, those humans didn"t escape immediately. After that, I stayed with the Princ.i.p.al. I don"t have the time to commit a crime!"
"Thirdly, these humans are my gifts to Lord Gajero. It"s my credit. How could I give up this credit? Therefore, I don"t have the motive to commit a crime!"
After listening to Vincent"s explanation, Princ.i.p.al Jace was the first to agree. "That"s right! I also don"t know where the secret pa.s.sage is, so it"s impossible for me to tell Vincent. What else do you have to say?"
At that moment, Mosshull really wanted to slap himself. In order to deal with Princ.i.p.al Jace"s questioning, he had casually mentioned the secret pa.s.sage. He did not expect to dig such a huge hole for himself. Even if he wanted to change his words and say that the humans had escaped from outside, it was too late.
This was because the beast army outside all listened to Mosshull"s orders. Without his cooperation, it was impossible to let anyone go!
"You, you, even if what you said was right, the crime of the humans escaping must be borne by someone!"
Mosshull immediately lost his arrogance and insisted with some guilt.
Vincent smiled and said, "Since the Bear King Bloodline Detector was destroyed, there have been spies in Flying Snow Castle. This time, the humans were let go, so it must have something to do with the spies. Lord Mosshull, you should first investigate the matter of the spies!"
"What the f*ck!"
Mosshull subconsciously cursed.
In Mosshull"s opinion, the matter of the spy back then was caused by someone within the snow wolf tribe. However, he could not splash dirty water on his own tribe. Therefore, he could only try his best to cover it up. He did not expect Vincent to bring it up again. He really had a hard time saying it out loud!
Vincent looked at Mosshull"s defeated look and felt extremely happy. He did not expect that his appearance as a snow wolf tribe back then would actually play such a big role!
After Mosshull"s internal struggle, he could only sigh helplessly. "It seems like this matter needs to be investigated slowly. If there"s nothing else, everyone can disperse!"
Vincent deliberately went forward and said, "Lord Mosshull, now that the humans have escaped, I have nothing to do. Why don"t I help you investigate the matter of the mole!"
"Get lost!"
Mosshull finally could not hold it in anymore. He turned his head and shouted at Vincent angrily. He then walked out of the second underground floor.
After the people of the snow wolf tribe had all left, Princ.i.p.al Jace could not help but laugh heartily. He repeatedly gave Vincent a thumbs up.
"Well done, you"ve infuriated that sc.u.m to death!"
"Thank you for your praise, Princ.i.p.al!" said Vincent whilst nodding.
All of a sudden, Princ.i.p.al Jace spoke in a serious tone, "Today, you"ve completely angered Mosshull. In the future, you must definitely plot against him to prevent something like today from happening!"
"I understand!" said Vincent.
Princ.i.p.al Jace nodded in satisfaction. He then turned around and left.
Vincent stayed in the second underground level alone. After looking at the empty cells, he silently prayed for the safety of his teammates. He then returned to his seat and began to cultivate.
As the great battle was coming, he had to try his best to improve himself!
"An elf that can improve my cultivation base, don"t let me down!" murmured Vincent.
He then took out the elf gifted to him by Princ.i.p.al Jace.
…
At the edge of Flying Snow Wilderness, a group of people was rus.h.i.+ng forward.
"Everybody, keep working hard. We have to finish Vincent"s plan on time!" shouted Chris at the others who were behind him.
"Don"t worry, we can catch up with him!"
Nabil replied loudly with Teacher Chris on his back.
The others kept silent as they had already exerted all their strength on the road.
When they left the Flying Snow Wilderness and rushed into a canyon, the ground started to shake.
"Stop!"
Teacher Chris hurriedly stopped them as she observed the surroundings with a cautious look.
In the next second, countless figures suddenly appeared above the canyon. The entrances on both sides were also blocked by the huge beast army.
Along with the sound of orderly footsteps, the beast army at both ends of the canyon slowly advanced until they were in front of everyone.
Teacher Chris and the others looked around nervously. They were still unable to be as calm and composed as Vincent when facing the other races.
The beast army suddenly stopped. An eagle man walked out of the formation. He looked at them carefully and said in surprise, "They are all humans. Are you all the envoys of the Bear King?"
After hearing the other party"s question, Teacher Chris heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Who are you?"
"I"m Qiu Misri. I"m leading the army to welcome the Bear King. I"m waiting for the arrival of the Bear King envoy!" said the eagle-headed beast.
Teacher Chris finally let down her guard and quickly said, "We are the official Bear King"s emissaries. We are here to inform you that the Bear King is about to return from Flying Snow Castle. We hope that you can go and receive him!"
When Qiu Misri heard that, he raised his arms and shouted excitedly, "That"s great! The Bear King is about to return. The beasts can finally see the light of day again!"
"See the light of day again! See the light of day again!"
The entire canyon recalled the beast army shouting in unison.
After the voices gradually stopped, Qiu Misri turned to look at Teacher Chris and the others and said, "The cultivation levels of the few emissaries are too low. Just stay here and wait for the news of our victory!"
"No, we must kill our way back to the Flying Snow Castle and bring back our companions!"
Teacher Chris and the others replied to him in unison.
