Chapter 52 - 52 Feign Death to Escape
Although these Human spellcasters did not care much about Human lives, the king did!
If the king found out about this, even spellcasters like them would have to bear the consequences.
Although the king rarely interfered in their matters, as long as the other party is involved, it was not a small matter for them.
Although their status as Spellcasters might not be crippled because of this, they would definitely be punished.
Therefore, under such circumstances, the Human Spellcasters began to think of a countermeasure.
“Is there a need to explain? Just tell the truth!
Not to mention 600,000 troops, even if we had 6 million troops, we wouldn’t be able to charge in.
With so many Spellcasters guarding there, numbers were meaningless to those Spellcasters.
Moreover, we don’t have enough Spellcasters. We won’t be of much use.
If you really want us to attack, it’s just throwing an egg on a rock. We won’t be able to return!
On the other hand, what we’re doing now can be considered to have retained our strength. At the very least, it’s enough to intimidate these Dark Elves for a short period of time and let them live a little more peacefully.”
Massey had clearly seen many storms. The other two Beginner Spellcasters beside him were very anxious.
However, Massey was not anxious at all as he explained everything.
Hearing Massey’s words, the other two Beginner Spellcasters could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
After all, to them, everything they had done previously really made them a little afraid, hesitant, and hesitant.
Previously, these two even had the thought of rushing back to save him.
Fortunately, Massey managed to persuade the two childish Spellcasters to come back.
Massey, who had been struggling in the secular world, was clearly an old fox. This old fellow had always been the king’s special pet.
Sometimes, even the king was unwilling to offend him.
It was also because of this that Massey felt that they would not be punished when they returned.
Even if he was punished, it would only be a symbolic punishment. It would not be too heavy.
Obviously, even if Massey is not the king’s confidante, he had an inkling or two about the king’s thought process.
This old man could basically understand what the king was thinking under most circumstances.
It was precisely because of this that the other two Spellcasters finally calmed down after Massey spoke.
Seeing this, Massey shook his head and said again, “The most important thing now is how to deal with those hundred Dark Elf Spellcasters.
As for the rest, it was not a big deal. Even if they lost hundreds of thousands of troops, the King would not punish them severely.
After all, over a hundred Spellcasters is no laughing matter.
The power of a Spellcaster was incomparably huge. His Majesty should understand us.
However, understanding was one thing. The most important thing now was how to deal with those Dark Elves. Otherwise, it doesn’t matter how much we ask for the His Majesty to understand us and the situation.
He would probably still send us out to be enemies with those Dark Elves.
After all, only we can defeat those Dark Elves now.
But you also know that we’re not their match at all…
Currently, there were only eight Spellcasters in the palace, and most of them are Beginner Spellcasters like you.
Only one of them was an Intermediate Spellcaster like me.
And the other party’s strength is ten times stronger than ours. With all due respect, we are destined to lose this battle!”
“Then what should we do? We can’t just sit around and wait for death, right?”
At this moment, one of the younger Spellcasters spoke up.
He was considered a genius among Human Spellcasters. This guy had become a Spellcaster at the age of 20.
In a sense, he was like a genius on Earth who had entered university at the age of ten.
Such a person’s future was naturally limitless.
However, in terms of now, he could only be said to be an idiot!
Compared to Massey, Jack was still very young. There were many things he did not understand. He was young and impulsive.
There were too many shortcomings!
However, no matter how many flaws there were, in the current situation, they were all in the same boat.
Therefore, under such circumstances, although Massey was unwilling, he could only be forced to explain, “Are you stupid?
Who told you that we were going to wait for death?
Compared to waiting for death, we have a better way now. According to the situation, we can completely take drastic measures!”
“Take drastic measures? What do you mean?”
Jack was still stupid at this moment, which made Massey want to slap him.
However, in this situation, he really could not offend Jack. Otherwise, his plan might fail.
Therefore, he waved his hand impatiently and replied seriously, “You’re too naive!
You really don’t understand. What I mean is that we can fake our deaths and escape from this vortex.
There’s no need for us to fight to the death with those Dark Elves…”
He should understand now, right?
‘Why do I have to explain so much…’
“You really are. Forget it. I can’t be bothered with you. Just follow us later.
Do whatever I tell you to do. Don’t f*cking talk nonsense!”
Jack finally understood what Massey and the others meant.
Although Jack did not want to leave his hometown, after thinking about it, it seemed that this was the only way to save their lives.
Letting them fight those Dark Elves to the death was suicide. Jack didn’t want to die, so in this situation, the best way to survive was to fake his death.
Despite this, Jack and the others would lose the support of the royal family, and a lot more.
However, the outside world was huge. Massey believed that with their status as Spellcasters, it should not be very difficult to find a country that was willing to take them in.
However, at that time, they might be forced to sign a very harsh contract.
But under such circumstances, they had no choice, right?
Moreover, they did not have to find a country. It was not impossible for them to live a carefree and happy life.
In any case, capable people were are their own bosses everywhere!
No matter which country it was, spellcasters were always feared.
Thinking of this, Jack could not help but relax a little.
Although it was a little uncomfortable to be away from home, what was this compared to death?
Even an old fox like Massey did not want to die, let alone him, Jack.
He was still young and had great potential. He really did not want to die!
Therefore, his desire for life made Jack make the best choice in his life…
