Chapter 550: Rescuing a Partner
He reached out and grabbed Klein’s wrist. “No, we can’t let Gray down. Since he said so, let’s leave quickly. Let’s first place the Princess in a safe place before coming back to receive him!”
Klein frowned slightly. He hadn’t known Gray for long, but the two of them had developed a deep friendship.
Klein was still able to understand when it came to matters of great importance. In the end, when he saw Gray form a sturdy defensive circle, he could tell Gray’s determination.
Klein resolutely decided to leave with Princess Anna first!
Although there were some people blocking the way, they were nothing compared to Klein. They were easily dealt with.
The two of them fought their way out of the encirclement and brought Princess Anna out of Demon King Saxe’s territory.
It was desolate ahead, but Klein’s heart was churning like a wave of snow.
Everything that had happened today had indeed shocked him.
He could even foresee Gray’s end. In front of Demon King Saxe, no one could escape unscathed.
Gray was only using his body to stall for time.
After quickly running back to their own space, Klein and James felt relieved.
They had indeed relied on pure luck to escape unscathed.
James patted his chest. He had really thought that he and Klein would never be able to return.
At this moment, the bald uncle and the others also noticed Klein’s return and hurriedly went forward to ask about the situation.
Seeing Princess Anna return, the few of them heaved a sigh of relief, their faces filled with joy.
“I really didn’t expect the few of you to really be able to save this girl?!”
“That’s right. Wasn’t this little girl captured by Demon King Saxe? The two of you managed to escape unscathed even after entering the tiger’s den? It’s simply unbelievable!”
Klein sighed softly. “This isn’t our credit. There’s still one person who hasn’t returned…”
As he said that, he pushed Princess Anna in front of the bald uncle.
“No matter what, please ensure the little girl’s safety again. I’ll entrust her to you for the time being. I have to go back immediately to save my partner!”
The bald uncle’s eyes widened in disbelief.
The bald uncle sighed and said, “You’ve already saved her. Why are you still going back? There’s only a slim chance of survival in the tiger’s den!”
They didn’t quite understand why Klein was still going back.
At that moment, Princess Anna reached out and grabbed the corner of Klein’s clothes, then she shook her head gently.
“Don’t go back. Don’t go back. Promise me to stay, okay? Didn’t you promise that uncle to take care of me?”
Klein’s heart softened as he lowered his head and stroked the top of the little girl’s head. The soft hair made him sigh with emotion.
Klein sighed softly. “I did promise him and you, but our partner is in danger. There’s no way I can escape alone and watch!”
Since Princess Anna was already in a safe state, it was necessary to go back and save him. Not only Klein, but even James had the same plan.
Klein gave her a determined look.
“Don’t worry, we will definitely come back immediately. We will definitely do what we promised you. When I return, we will help you search for your memories!”
At that moment, Anna fell silent. She knew that these brave warriors had done so much for her.
As she watched the two of them leave, Princess Anna felt her vision gradually blur…
The two of them went back the way they came and realized that things didn’t seem to be going so smoothly.
Seeing them attempt to enter the Demon King’s territory again, they realized that the entire territory was enveloped by a huge barrier.
Klein frowned slightly and patted the huge barrier with his right hand. The outer shell was extremely hard, and it was probably impossible to open with human strength.
James reached out and touched his chin. “What’s going on? The two of us did escape from this place just now. Why can’t we enter now?”
Klein sniffled, guessing that this was a ploy by Demon King Saxe.
He thought for a moment before saying, “He must have been afraid that the few of us would escape, so he set up a protective barrier along the way. That way, we won’t be able to leave.”
Unfortunately, his barrier was set up too late, and they were too fast, so they weren’t able to make it in time.
Demon King Saxe’s tactic of closing the door and beating the dog wouldn’t work.
On the contrary, although they had successfully escaped, it was impossible for them to enter again.
At this moment, Demon King Saxe must have sent his men to search everywhere. The enchantment wouldn’t be opened for a short period of time.
Klein patted the enchantment anxiously. He realized that not only was the enchantment extremely hard, it would also rebound.
The more strength you exerted on it, the more obvious the rebound effect would be.
James took a few steps back, summoned his bow, and prepared to attempt an attack.
A bow shot out, and with a thud, the barrier wasn’t damaged at all.
The bow and arrow were bounced back, and it brushed past James’s ear with a whoosh!
It gave Klein and James quite a fright.
“Don’t try anymore. The two of us can’t open this barrier with our current strength!”
It was no wonder why Demon King Saxe was so famous. The magic power of his subordinates was indeed not to be underestimated!
James was a little anxious. What should he do? If this dragged on any longer, Gray’s side might not be able to hold on any longer.
“There’s no point for the two of us to enter anymore!”
Klein frowned slightly. He knew that Demon King Saxe had a strong desire for revenge, especially when facing his subordinates who had once betrayed him…
Gray’s actions would definitely incur Saxe’s wrath, and he definitely wouldn’t let him off!
Klein gritted his teeth and summoned the top-tier weapon in his hand. This was his greatest trump card at the moment.
If even a tier 10 weapon couldn’t crack the barrier in front of him, then they would really be helpless.
James was about to stop Klein’s crazy actions.
After all, Klein would suffer a significant backlash from the slash.
Putting aside the fact that the barrier had a powerful rebound function, just the tier 10 weapon wasn’t something a normal person could use.
But looking at Klein’s determined expression, it was unlikely that he could be persuaded. James could only take a few steps back and try to stay as far away from Klein as possible to avoid accidentally injuring him.
“We must be careful. If it really doesn’t work, we’ll think of another way. We mustn’t clash head-on!”
Before James could finish his sentence, Klein’s blade had already pressed forward.
In a flash, the top-tier weapon and the top-tier enchantment came into close contact.
With a bang, sparks flew in all directions. James couldn’t even see Klein’s figure anymore. The entire world was set aflame and filled with light! He felt as if his eyes were going blind!
