Chapter 64: The Theater (8)
Everly lowered her voice and shared with Old John and Misha her plan to destroy the sacrificial formation.
“Too dangerous. I should go,” Old John was the first to object.
Everly shook her head. “No. That duct is suspended in midair. Grandpa, you’re too heavy, you might crush it.”
“What about me?” Misha raised her hand to volunteer.
The sweat on her forehead and her tightly pressed lips showed that Misha was actually a little scared. Even so, when someone needed to step up, she didn’t hesitate to stand forward. This gave Everly a new appreciation for this old classmate.
No wonder she was a citizen of Lemot Town—even a little girl had remarkable courage and daring.
Unfortunately, this task could only be done by her…
Everly shook her head again, speaking vaguely, “I’m the only one who can destroy the formation. I also know the route better than anyone else. It’s best if I go.”
Seeing Misha opening her mouth in protest, as if wanting to argue further, Everly waved her hand. “Enough. Time is critical. It’s settled. Misha, you and Grandpa will guard the sewer cover. I’ll leave my phone here. Once we get the password, you can unlock it for the police immediately. I’ll head straight to the stage to destroy the formation.”
