Chapter 320: Head to the Labyrinth Hall
“No, no! I did not have such thoughts. Furthermore, I had never been on good terms with Buck. I believed that Buck was pretty strong, if Your Majesty could subdue him, the strength of the Sky Dynasty would rise by another level!”
Upon hearing Jerry’s question, Simmons was so scared that he broke out in cold sweat and hurriedly explained.
Looking at Simmons’ serious explanation, everyone in the hall immediately laughed, leaving the confused Simmons at a loss.
“Get up! If it weren’t for you, we wouldn’t have been able to proceed so smoothly this time!”
This wasn’t Jerry’s intentional comforting words to win Simmons over, but because no one in the Sky Dynasty knew the rules of the second level of the Endless Tower. At that time, Jerry did not even understand the space where Sky Dynasty was located. He did not know that after Lu Zian’s death, the space controlled by the Divine Spear Dynasty would become ownerless.
Perhaps by the time Jerry reacted, Divine Spear Dynasty’s assets would have been completely snagged by the others. Even if it was not to that extent, by the time Sky Dynasty reacted, it would have wasted a lot of time.
Do not underestimate the short span of a few minutes. Every single step adds up.
If they were a few minutes slower, the other trial-takers would have found out what happened to the Divine Spear Dynasty. By the time the other trial-takers had a piece of the pie, the harvest of the Sky Dynasty would greatly reduce. The most important thing was that the survivors of the Divine Spear Dynasty were probably long gone.
The others did not matter, but Commander Buck was not an ordinary person. If Buck managed to escape, the Sky Dynasty would face an unimaginable disaster.
After all, if a tier four god king was lurking in the shadows, if he wanted to target Jerry, it would be hard to guard against him.
Thinking of this, Jerry’s gaze swept over Ares, Odin, and Apollo. Their performance was a little disappointing. If he had not been watching the battle closely, Buck would have successfully escaped from their encirclement.
This would have directly exposed the Sky Dynasty’s greatest weakness. In the past, during the Empire Era, due to the existence of the Eternal Flower Register, he could directly summon powerful existences from within. Moreover, he could directly raise the strength of his subordinates, which allowed the Sky Dynasty’s strength to outperform the others.
This also caused the Sky Dynasty to use its absolute strength to forcefully suppress the other dynasties. But now, in the training grounds, they were facing people who were almost as strong or even stronger than them.
This also caused the battles to be of the same level or even higher. This was undoubtedly a very disadvantageous situation for the Sky Dynasty’s people, at least in terms of mentality and personal strength, these people had not adjusted themselves.
Even Jerry himself had to admit that he was a little inflated. Otherwise, he would not have fallen for Buck’s trick so carelessly. Although in the end, the outcome was still good. However, the mistakes of these people might not be unaffected by his injury.
Of course, Jerry would never admit to this matter. Moreover, any carelessness after entering the maze might cause irreparable losses. He had to take the opportunity to teach these people a lesson, otherwise, when it really happened, it would be too late.
“This time, the Sky Dynasty was able to reap such a huge harvest was due to your scheme. There was no doubt about this. Unfortunately, time does not allow it. Otherwise, you would have a share of the reward.” Jerry naturally knew what Simmons was worried about. As someone who had just joined, he had not integrated into the Sky Dynasty. Furthermore, such a thing had happened.
It was inevitable that others would blame him for Jerry’s injuries. After he brought it up, no one else would have such thoughts.
“Yes! Your subordinate would not seek any rewards. If Your Majesty is fine, it would be the best reward for your subordinate!” Simmons said in a deep voice, he also understood that Jerry had announced this matter in front of so many people was to conclude the expedition to the Divine Spear Dynasty, made him feel at ease, and also to shut the others up.
“As a newcomer who had just join the Sky Dynasty, Simmons’ performance was very good. However this time, some elders’ performance was somewhat unsatisfactory. Not only did they almost let the biggest threat escape, but they also nearly lost themselves in the end, didn’t they?”
Hearing Jerry’s words, Apollo and the others immediately stood up. They naturally knew that they had made a mistake during that battle. This was undoubtedly a great lesson for them as they had always been arrogant. After all, the trio was considered to be the strongest people in the current Sky Dynasty apart from Jerry.
“Your Majesty, I admit my mistake. Please punish me!”
Apollo and Odin stepped out from both sides of the hall and knelt down on one knee in the middle of the hall. In fact, they knew very well that if Simmons had not pulled them out in the end, they would not be able to stand here safely.
“Get up! Remember, there would always be someone better than you. Every trial-taker in this trial-ground is not ordinary. Each and every one of them should not be underestimated. Do not make such mistakes again in the future.” This time, it was mainly to remind them, it was impossible to really punish them.
After saying that, Jerry turned his gaze to Ares, who was standing at the side as though everything had nothing to do with him.
Ares blinked his eyes, looking confused. It was not an act, but he felt that he had done nothing wrong. Seeing Ares like that, Jerry felt a headache coming on and massaged his temples, after thinking about it, he still did not say anything.
There was nothing he could do. As the God of War, Ares had an extraordinary passion for battle. If he could change his personality with just a few words, he would not be like this today. Furthermore, Jerry was not sure if it would be good or bad if he changed Ares’ fighting style, so he simply could not be bothered to say anything more.
In the future, he would have Simmons paying close attention to Ares. Ever since they fought in the arena, Ares and Simmons had a pretty good relationship. After all, from a certain point of view, Ares treated powerful people pretty well, this was completely different from the others.
“Let’s go, we’ve already dragged this out for a long time today. It’s time to set off and see what the labyrinth on the second floor of the Endless Tower looked like. Ares, Apollo, Odin, and Simmons, the few of you shall follow me!”
