Chapter 65: 56. The wise sleep less.
Translator: 549690339
In Mars Squad’s tent.
Noland Lee was placed on a chair by the guards.
About one minute after the guards left, a sharp whistle suddenly rang out in the camp.
“Twee! Twee! Twee!”
This was the whistle that scouts would blow when they encountered an emergency situation:
“Report, Chief Officer! There’s a big problem! The undead on the First
Underground Level and Underground Layer 2 have revived ahead of time! They’re assembling a huge army and surrounding our camp!”
Pim’s voice reached Noland Lee’s ears:
“Stay calm, soldiers! …Everyone, listen up! I command you to defend the camp at all costs! No retreat!”
“Chief Officer, what about Lieutenant Grett on the Third Underground Level?
We must go and save him!”
“No, soldiers, I will go save him! I will lead my strongest men and venture down to the Third Underground Level to rescue Lieutenant Grett. You all must stay here and hold the position! Understand? Don’t let Lieutenant Grett return to see a devastated camp!”
“Yes, Chief Officer!”
Pim’s speeches were impassioned and stirring, touching the hearts of the soldiers on the scene.
His Military Intelligence Second Division Soldiers and all of Alvin Army’s soldiers were left behind.
Only four guards followed him, leaving the camp to rescue Lieutenant Grett on the Third Underground Level
Noland Lee supported his head and sat on the chair, his grin gradually growing more pronounced.
He didn’t know how Pim had caused the undead to revive ahead of time.
He only knew that Pim was now rushing to the Third Underground Level and would definitely run into Murphy’s gun.
Noland Lee closed his eyes, intending to rest for a bit to let the side effects of the Soul Interrogation Potion dissipate, as his head felt like a spinning top was constantly turning…
The next second, he opened his eyes, and a self-critical light flickered in their depths.
What are you thinking about, Noland?
Pim is not dead yet, how can you sleep?
How can you be so sure that he will definitely die at Murphy’s hands?
If he doesn’t die, won’t he still be a never-ending trouble?
Only when he’s dead and turned to dust, you, Noland Lee, have the right to get a good night’s sleep!
And what about those skeleton warriors burned into ashes by the liquid flame?
Hadn’t they all turned to ashes? How could they still stand up?
Noland Lee touched his head full of question marks, unable to understand the magical principle of “Undead Revival.”
All he could say was that magic was undoubtedly magic, not quite the same as science.
No wonder there was a saying, “Only magic can defeat magic.”
Noland Lee suppressed the doubts in his heart and gripped his firearms tightly.
His gaze moved back and forth outside the campsite. He happened to see Pim’s figure running into the staircase but could never find Corporal Mars. Where did Mars go? Was he still on the third underground level?
…Oh, maybe.
Since he could summon Captain Murphy with the copper whistle, chances were he had some other tasks like helping Captain Murphy with lookout and vigilance…
Noland Lee pondered quietly.
He was not worried that Mars would block his plan to kill someone with a borrowed knife.
According to Pim’s character and principles, he would forcibly break through even if Mars stopped him.
Neither Mars’ rank nor strength was higher than Pim’s; it was impossible to keep Pim outside the third underground level.
Noland Lee’s heart had only one concern that he couldn’t be completely sure of.
That was how to guarantee a hundred percent that Pim would explode on the spot and leave no corpse.
Noland Lee reached into his pocket, gripping the icy bone cards, his eyes becoming deep.
He scanned the bustling battlefield, and once he saw that no one paid attention to him, the Sin Soldier, he decisively stepped into the unguarded staircase.
Unavoidably, after the army’s continuous combat, there was a reduction in personnel, resulting in defensive lapses.
This provided opportunities for Noland Lee’s actions.
He entered the staircase, descending along the stairwell, and the layout of the entire underground tomb emerged in his mind.
“Pim had just gone down from staircase 3, which was the shortest route to the third underground level. If he was defeated by Captain Murphy and escaped with heavy injuries, he should return to the first underground level through staircase 3 and then flee to the ground level…
“This is the shortest and quickest route. Unless Pim could burrow through the ground, he would have to pass through staircase 3. In that case, I’ll look for a suitable Cavern Stalker in staircase 3…”
Noland Lee stepped into the second underground level, and his breathing paused momentarily.
He saw groups of Stone Tomb Bound Spirits.
Fortunately, the “Mark of Resentment” on him was still effective.
Those Stone Tomb Bound Spirits only glanced at him and continued to hover and drift in the air.
Noland Lee jogged his way to staircase 3, searching for a suitable Cavern
