Chapter 421: The Escaping Bulanda

“What?”

Hearing this, Apollo quickly repeated it in his mind to make sure that he did not mishear.

Everyone was also stunned and speechless.

In fact, everyone had seen Bulanda’s determination to die. They therefore guessed that he would not run away at the last minute and put him in the tower.

This was actually not a qualified prison cell. As long as the people inside wanted to get out, even a Tier One god-king would be able to climb out from it.

Therefore, using the tower to lock up Bulanda was more of a symbolic meaning. It was not really to bind him in a certain place.

But now, Bulanda actually ran away on his own, this was something that Apollo had not expected.

“Did Bulanda actually go back on his word?”

Apollo muttered to himself. Perhaps it was nighttime, and Bulanda had calmed down and changed his mind. In order to survive, he had escaped from the Sky Dynasty.

Simmons gave them a look and led them out of the tent. He said, “I’ll go after him.”

The rest of the people in the tent looked at each other. Apollo’s mind was blank. He didn’t know how to deal with this situation.

To be honest, they had used their bodies to block the monster tide a while ago. At that time, Apollo thought that he was going to die. However, the pressure he had then was not as great as what he was having now.

The puppy that was summoned probably didn’t know what was going on. It only knew that it had completed its master’s task, so its master would reward it.

It was jumping and barking in the tent. It then returned to its master’s side and leaned on its master’s slender ankle.

The woman fed the puppy with divine power and put it into the tattoo. Suddenly, she said, “Maybe Bulanda ran away because he wanted to see if breaking up with us could be considered a team cancellation?”

After hearing that, Apollo looked up at the woman. The woman looked like she was only in her teens. Her face was young and familiar. She had probably been following the Sky Dynasty for a long time.

Apollo remembered that this woman should be called Sharena. She was a necromancer that His Majesty had recruited from the captives a long time ago.

“Impossible,” Apollo replied. “Bulanda has already handed over the Empire Era fragment to His Majesty. Therefore as long as Bulanda is still alive, he will be judged as a member of the Sky Dynasty.”

Apollo did not say the rest which was even if Bulanda did not move with everyone, he would still be judged as a member of a team. Therefore he was truly running away.

At this moment, Apollo could no longer sit by idly. He stood up and thought of calling a few people to go with Simmons to capture Bulanda. The few people that Simmons brought with him probably would not be able to capture Bulanda. After all, Brenda was a former monarch of a Holy Dynasty, and his strength was at the peak of Tier Three god-king.

However, just as Apollo wanted to go out, he saw Simons return.

Simons threw the person who was tied up in his hands into the center of the tent. It was obvious that the person who was beaten to a pulp was Bulanda himself

“He was captured so quickly?”

Even Apollo could not believe that the matter was resolved so quickly.

Apollo sat down again and faced Bulanda, who was tied up by the golden chains in front of him. He asked calmly, “Are you going to escape?”

Brenda exhaled. “Yes, I have thought about escaping.”

“Why?”

Apollo thought of how Bulanda had looked like when he was ready to die just now. Why did he suddenly plan to escape at night?

Maybe the act of looking at death calmly during the day was just a performance in front of everyone. It was just that Bulanda felt that he could not escape under the circumstances, so he did the opposite and used this method to gain sympathy.

Bulanda rolled his eyes. “Since you want to kill me! Of course I have to run away!”

Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air when they heard this. No one had expected that Bulanda, who was still the same during the day, would suddenly become so cowardly at this moment.

“Then there’s nothing more to say.”

Simmons said calmly. At the same time, Simmons picked up a long sword in his hand and slowly walked towards Bulanda.

“Thank you for your contribution to the Sky Dynasty. We will remember you.”

At this moment, Apollo reached out his hand again, “Hold on.”

Just like the plot during the day, Apollo once again stopped the others from killing Bulanda.

Everyone looked over at the same time, wanting to hear what Apollo had to say this time.

If he said that he would let Bulanda go during the day, it was because in consideration that everyone could not kill each other.

But now, since Bulanda had already made a move to escape from the crowd, this was a violation of the rules of the Sky Dynasty. Any army would take the most severe punishment for deserters, so at this moment, killing Bulanda no longer had any reasonable obstacle.

But Apollo still stopped this action.

At this moment, Apollo understood that Bulanda’s actions during the day were real, and the act of wanting to escape now was acting.

“The reason you deliberately ran away was to let us kill you without any psychological burden, right?”

Once these words were said, Bulanda fell silent.

Bulanda did not expect that these people would be able to see through his actions so quickly.

While he was in the tower, Bulanda had been thinking about how he could die.

At this moment, he did not have much divine power left. The battle from before had consumed too much of his energy. Even if he wanted to commit suicide in the tower, he would not be able to do so.

That was why he came up with this idea. He wanted to escape on purpose so that others would think that he had betrayed them.

That way, those people would be able to execute him without any qualms.

Bulanda knew that he had already conveyed all of his last words. If there was a chance, Apollo would definitely save his wife.

Therefore, at that moment, there was no more regret. Bulanda climbed out of the tower easily and jumped straight down.

It was also the first time Bulanda felt that a Tier Three god-king body was so annoying. He could not die from falling from such a high place and only ended up with a broken bone.

Bulanda limped away until he was caught by Simmons and thrown into the tent.

He thought that he would be able to die smoothly, but he did not expect Apollo, who was usually stupid, to suddenly understand his way of doing things.

The atmosphere in the tent became quiet again. They also understood Bulanda’s intention after being reminded by Apollo.
