Chapter 99 - 97: Wilderness Battle Royale (Part 2)
Luckily, Lu Hong made it to the edge of the waterfall at the last moment and took a leap, plunging into the pool below.
"Where is he?!" When Sa Re hurried over and looked down from above, aside from the deafening sound of water, there was no trace of Lu Hong to be seen.
"Everyone get down there and search, he can’t have gone far!" commanded Sa Re, and tens of thousands of people jumped down from above, rushing into the pool.
Yet, half an hour passed, and despite a carpet search by tens of thousands of people, they failed to find any trace of Lu Hong.
"Trash! Trash! A bunch of trash!" Sa Re roared in dissatisfaction.
"My Lord Earl, we have searched every nook and cranny here; surely the man must have escaped from this pool, but given his injuries, he surely can’t get far."
"Do I need you to tell me that?" Sa Re interrupted his aide with displeasure, "Someone, form teams of ten and spread out within a ten-mile radius to search. He must be captured and brought back to me!"
After issuing his orders, Sa Re personally led a team following the water’s flow and gradually moved away. Soon, the soldiers under the waterfall dispersed.
So where did Lu Hong actually hide? In fact, he was still under the pool. When Lu Hong plunged into the pool, he immediately saw a huge underwater statue, a bizarre serpent with three heads. Of course, it originally had three heads, but two had been destroyed by external forces, and half the serpent’s body was likewise ruined.
But it was this very statue that saved Lu Hong’s life, for he recognized it. This statue had appeared in a dungeon in the Sky game, and there was a secret space beneath it that could be entered with a spell muttered in silence.
