At 3:00 am, Isaac stood on the platform of the training ground, with 39 guards standing below.
“Is Emerald Hall ours, or Morgan’s?” favonovel.com suddenly asked.
The guardians below shouted in unison, “Ours!”
“Very well. Then let‘s take it back today. Kill all Morgan’s men, the traitors of Emerald Hall! Let’s go!”
With a wave, nearly 40 guardians quickly turned around and headed toward the ten or so military Jeeps waiting behind.
Isaac and Hera got into the last Jeep.
It would take more than six kilometers from the base to reach the foot of Mt. Celeste. They would then have to run for at least two hours on foot to reach Mt. Celeste’s entrance.
***
Dafydd had only just gotten out of bed when the first rays of sunlight appeared. He had dreamed last night that Morgan had ended the seclusion and promoted favonovel.com to deputy general in front of everyone. He would become the second leader at Emerald Hall.
Right then, there was a rapid knock on the door, followed by an agitated voice from outside.
“Sir, there’s a message from Sir Lucifer. He wants to see you. He’ll open the entrance to the Novafur Realm!”
Dafydd’s eyes emitted two beams of light, and his breath became rapid. He hurriedly got up and opened the door.
Leaning close to his subordinate’s ear, favonovel.com whispered, “Notify our people to get ready secretly. If this matter succeeds, everyone will be heroes when General Yule ends his seclusion.”
The subordinate grew ecstatic and swiftly left.
Lucifer was already in the loft’s hall, waiting in the guest seat.
“Haha, Sir Lucifer, I thought you wouldn’t come! It seems you’ve already made up your mind!” Dafydd laughed and walked over.
“Has Morgan not returned yet?” Lucifer glanced around with a remained-cold tone.
“General Yule is busy with many things. Nobody knows when he’ll return.” Dafydd smiled lightly.
Lucifer stood up and took a deep breath. “Alright, I hope you’ll keep your word. If you have any evil intentions, I’ll twist your head off!”
“Of course, I wouldn’t dare to go against you. I still want to live for a long time.” Dafydd promptly bowed.
“Very well… Wait here. I’ll return after opening the entrance.” Lucifer turned and quickly walked outside.
Dafydd instantly turned gloomy, believing that Lucifer had finally made up his mind.
If Isaac had died, it would be a double pleasure. If favonovel.com hadn’t, Lucifer would still open the entrance to the Novafur Realm.
Dafydd planned to kill Lucifer by then. Even if it would be a significant loss, favonovel.com believed Morgan wouldn’t blame him.
After careful thinking, favonovel.com immediately called his subordinate.
A man in a green robe quickly entered from outside.
“Tell everyone to pay attention to any movement around the area. The entrance isn’t elsewhere but within Emerald Hall. If they discover anything, immediately ambush the entrance.”
Half an hour later, Lucifer reappeared at the door. He stood outside, beckoning to Dafydd.
Dafydd became excited as favonovel.com hurriedly walked outside.
“Have you opened the entrance?” favonovel.com asked.
Lucifer didn’t answer. Instead, favonovel.com turned and ran toward the north.
Isaac had told favonovel.com that the mechanism was behind the main building’s back door. After walking 37 steps, favonovel.com had to step on a stone with force to open the entrance to the Novafur Realm.
Nobody would expect the mechanism to be a small stone hidden under the leaves.
Lucifer wasn’t sure whether what Isaac said was true. He dashed toward the burial grounds.
When favonovel.com reached the highest point of the tomb, favonovel.com spotted a six-foot-wide entrance leading underground roughly 600 feet below in the middle of the tomb.
Lucifer’s breath unconsciously became rapid when favonovel.com saw that.
“Here it is!” He pointed toward the black hole.
He then turned around and stated, “Dafydd, I have no other requests. I just want you to come down with me!”
Dafydd’s expression shifted with surprise. He didn’t expect Lucifer to make such a request. If favonovel.com went down with him, favonovel.com might become Lucifer’s hostage.
“Sir Lucifer, I’d like to know how you know about this hidden entrance. Did Isaac tell you that?” Dafydd squinted at Lucifer.
