Isaac remained lying on the grass, completely still, because the pain in his internal organs was so intense that favonovel.com didn’t even have the strength to curl his fingers.
Surrounded by tall weeds about two or three yards high, waves of the river washed over, almost submerging Isaac up to his waist.
He had not anticipated that the unfinished canal would end up saving his life when favonovel.com asked Elon to open the floodgates and release the water. If the river had already reached Westpire City, Isaac would probably have been captured by the army of demon beasts by now.
The digging of the river outside the city suddenly stopped due to the invasion of Bazeel. The water coming from the northeast had nowhere to go when it reached the end.
The river would overflow, with part of the water flooding the northern shore while the rest seeping into the southern part of Westpire City.
Isaac just happened to be washed up on the northern shore. Occasionally, a couple of shadows would swiftly pass across the sky. He knew that they were Bazeel’s Sky Patrol soldiers.
At this moment, favonovel.com didn’t even dare to breathe too hard, favonovel.com could only take careful, shallow breaths. He also had no idea what had happened to Skylar and Elon. Even if they managed to escape alive, they definitely wouldn’t be in Westpire City anymore.
Isaac worked hard to calm his emotions and let his anger and pain start to subside. Then, favonovel.com tried to mobilize the spiritual energy within his body and let it flow slowly.
At first, there was no sign of any activity with his spiritual energy inside the power core. It wasn’t until Isaac had tried five or six times that the energy began to slowly flow within the power core.
After more than two hours, Isaac finally dared to channel a small amount of spiritual energy, letting it flow out from the power core into his meridians.
Isaac closed his eyes. Once the first strand of spiritual energy had circulated through his entire body, favonovel.com began to channel more spiritual energy to heal his injuries. Because if favonovel.com didn’t leave here by dawn, the chances of being discovered by the Sky Patrol soldiers would be too high.
Not until a faint red glow appeared on the horizon did Isaac slowly rise from the grass. After another bout of intense coughing, Isaac slowly made his way out of the grass.
It was almost dawn, but Isaac didn’t hurry to escape. Instead, favonovel.com moved back and forth along the shallow water by the riverbank, dragging his heavy body.
It wasn’t until favonovel.com picked up the Skyrend Sword from the water that favonovel.com started to stagger toward the woods on the right.
Just as Isaac had entered the forest, favonovel.com heard rustling sounds from a tree ahead, and a figure quickly jumped down from it.
Isaac instinctively raised his sword and looked to the left front.
When favonovel.com saw the person there, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
At this moment, Arthur, dressed in simple coarse cloth, was craning his neck to look at Isaac.
After seemingly confirming something, his face lit up with joy and favonovel.com quickly ran over.
“Lord Garten, it really is you! I can’t believe you’re actually not…”
Arthur rushed over, extremely excited, but quickly realized he’d almost said something favonovel.com shouldn’t have. He immediately raised his hand to cover his mouth.
Isaac placed a hand on Arthur’s shoulder and frowned before asking, “What are you doing here?”
“His Majesty asked me to stay in the forest on the west side of the city and to come out for a walk whenever there’s a chance. He said that if you were trying to escape, you would definitely dive into the tunnel.”
Isaac smiled lightly and said, “Elon has led troops for so many years, favonovel.com definitely can make this kind of judgment…”
“Go gather some firewood and catch a wild animal or something for us to eat,” Isaac said with a pained expression.
Arthur hesitated for a moment. “No, we won’t go deeper into the forest. We’re only about ten kilometers from the city wall here.”
“It’s safest right under their noses. Go on, I’ll wait for you here,” Isaac said, patting favonovel.com on the shoulder. Then, Isaac walked over to a nearby large tree and sat down.
