Chapter 1335: Chapter 731 Sky Man_2 Chapter 1335: Chapter 731 Sky Man_2 “As for those bottles of wine,” Logan said with a slight smile, glints of playfulness and teasing in his eyes as if he were discussing the most ordinary matter, “let them lie there quietly for now, enjoying some rare leisure time. Once we have successfully resolved the current trouble, I'll invite you all for a good drink. At that time, not only will we toast to our escape from crisis, but also to the deeper friendship that adversity has forged among us.”
Elder Talon Skyler and his companions exchanged smiles upon hearing this. Their smiles held both appreciation for Logan's humor and aspiration for a brighter future. Although they were still in a dangerous situation, surrounded by the unknown darkness and potential dangers, Logan's words were like a warm spring breeze, clearing the clouds in their hearts and filling them with hope and strength.
“Indeed, with Elder Logan here, what is there to worry about?” one of Elder Talon Skyler's companions said with a laugh. His voice still carried a hint of barely detectable tension, but it was overshadowed by a firm trust and boundless expectation in Logan, “As long as we are united, there is nothing we cannot overcome.”
————————
“That's right,” another companion added, his eyes shining with resolute light, “Although we are in the territory of the Demon Race, as long as we keep our hearts towards the light, we will definitely find a way out. Elder Logan, you tell us, what should we do?”
Logan looked at everyone, feeling moved. He knew that although his companions came from different backgrounds, each with their own stories, at this moment, they were all united and facing the difficulties together. This trust and unity was his most valuable treasure.
He pondered for a moment, then slowly said, “First, we need to act even more cautiously to avoid drawing the attention of the Demon Soldiers. Next, I need to seek help from some reliable friends who might provide us with useful information or assistance. Finally, we must devise a thorough plan to ensure that nothing goes wrong during the execution.”
At this point, Logan's gaze became exceptionally determined, as if he had already seen victory's first light. “Remember, no matter what difficulties we encounter, we must not give up hope. So long as we have love and belief in our hearts, nothing can stop our footsteps.”
Elder Talon Skyler and his companions nodded in agreement. They knew that the road ahead would be full of challenges and dangers, but as long as they joined hands and moved forward together, they would be able to emerge from this darkness and welcome a bright future. And the profound friendship they had formed in adversity would become the most valuable wealth of their lives.
Logan reflected for a moment, his brow furrowed as he weighed the potential risks and rewards. He took a deep breath, his eyes determined as he said, “You all wait here for a moment, stay alert, but try not to be overly tense. I will go and scout out the City Lord's Mansion, see if I can find any useful information, like the purpose of Lord Dragon's visit, or the deployment of the Demon Soldiers. This information is critical to formulating our next plan.”
He paused, sweeping his gaze over Elder Talon Skyler and the companions, his eyes flickering with determination and trust. “Meanwhile, I will also try to contact some friends within the Demon Race who are influential. They may provide us with shelter, or at least some useful advice. At this crucial juncture, every bit of help could be key to us breaking free from this predicament.”
——————–
Having said that, Logan turned to leave, his figure tall and resolute in the dim light, like an unshakeable mountain peak. However, just then, Elder Talon Skyler suddenly called out to him, “Elder Logan, please wait a moment.”
Logan stopped in his tracks, turned around, and looked at Elder Talon Skyler with puzzlement, as if awaiting further words.
Elder Talon Skyler stepped forward, his eyes full of concern and caution. “Elder Logan, please be very careful. We know you are powerful and wise, but Lord Dragon is not an ordinary opponent, his strength and background are unfathomable. Do not take any unnecessary risks, and should you encounter danger, immediately retreat. Safety comes first.”
His voice was low, but each word was filled with sincerity and earnestness. He stared intently into Logan's eyes, as if he wanted to imprint his concern and caution deep into his heart.
Upon hearing this, Logan smiled faintly. That smile contained both gratitude for Elder Talon Skyler's concern and confidence in his own abilities. “Don't worry, Elder Talon Skyler. Although I, Logan, am not a big shot, I'm not reckless either. I'll be cautious in my actions and won't treat my life as a joke. Moreover, I believe in my friends, and they will do their best to help me.”
Having said this, he gently patted Elder Talon Skyler on the shoulder, signaling that he understood the other's worries and would act with caution. Then, he turned around again and walked toward the City Lord's Mansion with firm steps.
Elder Talon Skyler and his companions watched Logan's figure gradually disappearing into the night, their hearts filled with both anticipation and hope, as well as a slight, almost imperceptible, concern. They knew the time ahead would be extremely tough, but they also believed that as long as Logan was there, they would surely overcome this crisis.
——————–
Logan looked back, his gaze exceptionally resolute in the night, like two brilliant stars, offering Elder Talon Skyler and his companions endless comfort and confidence. He slightly raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a reassuring smile, and said, “Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. The City Lord's Mansion may be a dragon's den, but I, Logan, am not a vegetarian. You all need to stay alert here, avoid any rash actions, and not attract unnecessary trouble. Once I return, I will take you all out of this predicament.”
His voice was not loud, but every word seemed to carry the weight of a thousand pounds, falling heavily into the hearts of everyone there. Elder Talon Skyler and his companions watched him with complex emotions in their eyes. They knew the dangers Logan was about to face were immense, yet he chose to go alone, just to ensure they could stay safer here.
“Elder Logan, please be careful!” Elder Talon Skyler couldn't help but admonish, his voice carrying a slight tremble that was hard to detect, which was a deep concern for Logan.
“Don't worry, Talon,” Logan patted Elder Talon Skyler's shoulder, as if transmitting an invisible strength, “I will return safely. We still have to drink together and celebrate.”
—————-
After speaking, Logan hesitated no longer, turned around, and strode towards the deeper night. His figure gradually blurred in the dim light, eventually turning into a faint afterimage, disappearing from everyone's sight.
Elder Talon Skyler and his companions stood quietly in place, watching Logan's departure. Their hearts were a mix of emotions, full of deep concern for Logan but also a firm belief that he would return successfully. They knew that whatever the outcome, they would face it together, shoulder it together. This profound friendship and shared belief would become their greatest strength in overcoming this difficult situation.
The night grew denser, and the surroundings became eerily quiet. Only the occasional sound of the wind seemed to whisper the endless secrets of the world. Elder Talon Skyler and his companions stood close together, their gazes firm and bright, like a lantern lit in the darkness, illuminating the path forward.
“We can't just wait here doing nothing,” Elder Talon Skyler broke the silence, his voice solid and powerful, “We need to make thorough preparations, so that once Elder Logan returns, we can act immediately.”
“Right!” his companions responded in unison, their eyes shining with fighting spirit and determination, “We will get through this challenge together and welcome the dawn of victory!”
So, they began to busy themselves–some checking their equipment, others planning the route, and some in charge of keeping watch. Though in a dangerous situation, their hearts were filled with hope and strength. Because they knew that as long as they were united, nothing could stop their advancing steps.
