An hour ago, after killing Xuda, Steel Centipede took the lead and was about to rush into Terminal T2 like Dragon Feather and the others, but Guhan grabbed his collar.
He even asked, "Steel Centipede, what are you going to do?"
"Save Artoria, of course!
We have to be quick. We can't let the Great Waves of Storm get ahead of us! "Steel Centipede said loudly. His whole body was filled with the desire to defeat the Great Waves of Storm Sword Sect.
"Don't worry. Going in first may not necessarily get any benefits!"
Guhan smiled slightly. "Actually, the key to our victory is now. I have another thing for you to do."
"Another thing?"
Steel Centipede scratched his head and looked at his other teammates. Hongyu and the You siblings spread their hands, indicating that they did not know what Guhan was up to.
Only Clever Pen froze for a few seconds. He showed an admiring expression to Guhan, but he did not say anything. Instead, he chose to keep his mouth shut and quietly waited for Guhan to say it himself.
"Steel Centipede, do you remember the place where Aardwolf took you to get the decontamination equipment last time?" Guhan asked as he patted Steel Centipede on the shoulder.
"Yes!"
Steel Centipede nodded. As an experienced driver, as long as he had been there once, he could easily find it again. He did not have to worry about driving the wrong way or finding the wrong place.
"Very good. Steel Centipede and everyone go to Terminal T1 and find the Raider. Then, go to Aardwolf's base and bring me the decontamination equipment!"
Guhan looked at the time in the system. "I'll give you an hour. Is it enough for you to go back and forth?"
"Yes, it's enough!"
Steel Centipede scratched his head. "But isn't going to Aardwolf's base after we rescue Artoria?
Why are we going now? "
"You still don't understand? What an idiot!"
Hongyu knocked Steel Centipede's head and explained proudly, "I failed last time because I wasted too much time on the way to the Coyotes' base. I didn't have enough time to rush back to the First Safety Point.
This time, we'll retrieve the device before we rescue Artoria. Then we won't have to take a detour. Won't we be able to avoid the Nazi king's pursuit? "
"I see!" Steel Centipede and the You siblings were suddenly enlightened.
In fact, the instance dungeon's time limit was 6: 05 PM. There were only 2 hours and 20 minutes left before the altar would open at 8: 23 PM.
As long as he could rescue Artoria within the next two hours, everything would be fine.
Based on previous experience, it would only take about an hour for them to enter Terminal T2 and rescue Artoria. This meant that they had an hour and 20 minutes to spare, which was more than enough for them to make a round trip to Aardwolf's base.
With the device in hand, they would be able to save a lot of time from the Nazi king's pursuit. This was a perfect plan. Guhan had completely abandoned the rigid concept of a normal person's dungeon steps. Very creatively and intelligently, he had brought forward a step that was very short of time to be completed in the early stages of the dungeon.
If it were an ordinary player, they would probably be racking their brains for a way to escape the clutches of the Nazi king after rescuing Artoria. But it was almost impossible.
"But Military Governor, if we do this, we'll probably be delayed a lot. After all, we'll have to take another detour!
This way, our total time will be pulled apart from the Great Waves of Storm. If they also clear the dungeon with an S rank, we'll lose to them even if we're also S rank, "he said worriedly.
"Don't worry. If they want to get an S rank, they'll have to be like us. If the Great Waves of Storm crashes into Terminal T2, we'll definitely win."
…
The Canglan Waves, who had crashed into Terminal T2, had successfully arrived at Lu Ban's college entrance examination venue. Then, after each member made a last-minute cramming for some subjects that they were responsible for, they successfully scored a passing score. It only took them a few minutes to kill the weak Quanzhen Seven Masters.
Repeating the previous steps, they used the Soul-manipulating Swords to control the members to break the Dimensional Magic Circle. Then, Merlin appeared and Aardwolf woke up. Once again, the two sides stood in a confrontation. But this time, Long Yu had to make some changes.
"You didn't expect this, did you, Merlin? I, Aardwolf, am not dead. I'm still alive. You didn't expect this, did you?!" Aardwolf stood up and glared at Merlin, repeating the conversation he had last time.
"I really didn't expect you to still be alive!"
"Aardwolf, I'm very happy that you're alive. Things are not what you think. I'm really helping Artoria."
"Help?
From the moment Xuda appeared, I knew you were the mastermind behind the scenes.
Merlin, Artoria and I trusted you so much. Why did you betray us?
Why? "
"…"
We won't write the repetitive and boring conversation. After Aardwolf and Merlin finished their argument, Merlin had no choice but to disappear. When Aardwolf was about to let Long Yu go to a higher place to remove the scabbard, Long Yu suddenly sneered. "Mr. Aardwolf, is this scroll really poisonous?"
"Long Yu, what do you mean?" Hearing Long Yu's words, Aardwolf looked at Long Yu, dumbfounded. "You don't believe me?
Of course, it's the truth. That Merlin has been controlled by filth! "
"Mr. Aardwolf, we've already come to this point. Can't you be more honest with me?"
"Honest?
Honest about what? "
Due to Long Yu's aura, Aardwolf unconsciously took two steps back. Xue Leixing, who was standing behind him, grabbed Aardwolf's shoulder blade. At the same time, the other four surrounded Aardwolf from all directions.
"Of course I'm honest. Have you been controlled by filth?!" Long Yu patted his head and said in annoyance.
"In the past few hours, I've been thinking about why the system gave me an F rating.
Although my steps weren't flawless, they were perfect. Even if I missed some key steps and couldn't get an S rating, getting an A or B rating should be a matter of course. "
"What are you talking about? I don't understand what you're saying." Sweat began to appear on Aardwolf's forehead.
"It's okay. You don't need to understand what I'm saying. Just listen."
A strange expression appeared on Long Yu's face. "That's exactly what I want. If I can get a grade F, then I, Long Yu, am wrong. I'm very, very, very wrong. I'm wrong from the most fundamental point of view."
"Then, what is the fundamental point of this dungeon?
Of course, it's to rescue Artoria and bring her back to Swallow Capital City … "Long Yu paused." To bring Yuan Kou Artoria, who has been controlled by filth, back to Swallow Capital City.
But if I don't bring back Artoria who has broken free from the control of filth and is completely controlled by it, wouldn't I be fundamentally wrong? "
Long Yu suddenly turned around, grabbed Aardwolf's head, and pulled him in front of him. He stared into Aardwolf's eyes. "In other words, since I got an F rating, it's because I brought back Artoria, who is still controlled by filth. Am I right?
Mr. Aardwolf, who is also controlled by filth! "
"No, you're crazy, Dragon Feather. I'm not controlled by the filth. You promised me that we would save Artoria together, Dragon Feather." Aardwolf still clenched his teeth, refusing to admit that he was controlled by the filth.
"If I'm really controlled by filth, this is my territory. Why would I drag you guys into it and cause more trouble?"
"Well, then, Mr. Aardwolf, do you dare to do one thing?!"
Long Yu grabbed Aardwolf's head and pointed to the hilt of the sword that Aardwolf had ordered him to remove. "Mr. Aardwolf, I'm afraid the reason you spent so much effort to trick us into coming here was to find a normal person to remove the scabbard, right?
That scabbard, I'm afraid you guys who are controlled by filth can't even touch it!
At the very least, it's a taboo for those below the level of Flood, Yuan Kou. Am I right? "
"If Mr. Aardwolf has been freed from filth's control, then why don't you touch the scabbard yourself?
Do you dare to touch it? "
"Sigh … Even this point has been exposed. Mr. Long Yu, I'm afraid it was my biggest mistake to ask you to come here!"
Aardwolf smiled bitterly, and finally gave up on the meaningless pretense. "Yes, you're right.
I deliberately tricked you guys into coming here … I wanted to find a fool, but I didn't expect to find a smart guy like you! "
"I worked so hard to pretend to be unconscious for dozens of minutes … I even lost Xuda's life. What a bad deal."
…
At the same time, in the parking lot of P2, the rest of the team got into Steel Centipede's Raiders and went to Aardwolf's base to look for the removal equipment. Guhan sat silently on the spot, guarding against the filth of Aardwolf.
"Mr. Military Governor, why are you still here?" Aardwolf slowly woke up.
"Why aren't we going to save Artoria?
Mr. Military Governor, we don't have much time! "
"It's okay. My teammates have already gone to save Artoria. They entrusted me to protect you here. Mr. Aardwolf, without your secret base, even if we rescue Artoria, we can't remove the filth from her body, can we?"
