Chapter 260: Chapter 181: Tense Situation!
"Ai Lin, be careful and pay attention to your surroundings. If something goes wrong later on, don’t scatter." Long Yi said.
"Yes! I got it!" Ai Lin also sensed an unprecedented excitement in Long Yi. She knows that Long Yi’s demeanor is so excited only when he is meeting a powerful enemy. Back when they were carrying out their task of exterminating monsters, Long Yi occasionally displayed this excitement, only when they were up against powerful opponents. Now Long Yi is displaying this kind of excitement once again, which proves how serious he is about this upcoming event.
From the moment the referee started reading the rules of the competition to both teams, an indescribable atmosphere began to spread from around the field. And on the spectator seats, full of Black Dragon Empire audience, shouting cheers were endless.
Rather than focusing on the battling teams, Long Yi was constantly looking at the spectator stands. He believed that the threat would not come from the opposite side of the competition, but definitely from the outside world.
He was cautiously scanning the stands row by row, trying to find any threats.
And then, he found them.
There were always some people in the stands, no matter how noisy and shouting around them, they managed to maintain a cold demeanor, expressionlessly watching the center of the field. Long Yi’s vision was limited, he couldn’t make out who they were looking at, but from their attitudes, they were definitely not ordinary spectators.
"Ah, at this time, if Wesley and the others were here, it would be great."
Long Yi spoke helplessly to himself, using Wesley’s Observation Technique, it would be easy to find a few people from the crowd, right?
"I am here! Brother Long!"
A voice came from Wesley.
"Really? Do I miss Wesley so much that I’m hallucinating?" Long Yi was confused.
"Brother Long, I am really here!" Wesley’s voice came again from behind. Long Yi quickly turned back, only to see Wesley grinning at him.
"How did you get here!" Long Yi asked with surprise and delight.
"Hahaha, not just me, there are others too!" Following that, Dean and Mosquito also came out respectively.
"You guys are here too!"
"Haha, Mina, that little mermaid wanted to come as well, but she was detained by her bodyguard at the academy!" Dean said gloatingly.
"How did you guys get here?"
"Isn’t that simple? We asked the Dean for leave, forged our identities as logistic personnel, rented a Thunder Eagle, and here we are." Mosquito said as if it was the most natural thing.
"Damn, you guys are courting death." Long Yi punched Mosquito.
"It’s okay, we have Brother Long, right? As the big brother, even if we have to die, it would be you standing in front of us little brothers. If the sky falls down, you, with your tall stature, would be there to hold it up, right?" Dean retorted with a sly grin on his face.
"Don’t worry, when it comes to dying, I will definitely throw you first as sacrifice, creating an opportunity for us to escape." Long Yi said very ’maliciously’.
"Let’s stop this talk, Brother Long, have you noticed? There are regular Dragon Knights in these stands." Wesley said in a hushed voice.
"Stop talking nonsense, draw!"
Long Yi slapped a bank note in front of Wesley. After Observation Dragon flew around for a bit, the upgraded Observation Technique immediately gave Wesley useful information.
"Here is the grandstand, this is the north, these Dragon Knights are located in these areas. Right now, I’ve found a total of 130 people."
Wesley marked the ones he saw one by one.
"Did you guys see our Dragon Knights when you came here?" Long Yi asked Wesley.
"Our Dragon Knights?" Dean and Mosquito looked at Long Yi in confusion.
"Yes, our Dragon Knights should be on guard outside." Long Yi said.
"No, we didn’t see them." Dean and Mosquito both answered simultaneously.
"Did you guys come in from the side door?" Ai Lin asked.
"In order to get in, we deliberately went around the arena and finally chose to forge our identities and get in. When we said we were logistics for the White Dragon Empire, they gladly let us in." Wesley explained.
"We’re screwed!" Long Yi urgently rushed to the team instructor, but, to his surprise, he was gone!
"Wesley! The team instructor, the one who was standing here just now! Do you remember which way he went?" Long Yi immediately asked Wesley, who quickly used the Observation Technique, and reviewed the situation that he saw, but did not pay attention to. From his memory, in the corner of his eye, Wesley saw the instructor get a little flustered as Wesley appeared, then rushed towards one of the exits, he even said something to one of the Black Dragon Empire’s guards, and pulled something from his pocket to show to the guard.
"You guys wait here!"
Long Yi tidied up his thoughts, put on a sincere face, and approached that exit.
"Stop! This area is off-limits!" A guard said with a cold face.
"Um, brother, I am going to find our instructor." An honest-looking Long Yi said sincerely.
"Your instructor is not here! Get back!" The guard had already set up his long sword.
The guard wasn’t a Dragon Knight, just an average strong person. Long Yi was very curious as to what gave him the courage to face him. But, Long Yi did not stick around, instead, he returned to his group with an embarrassed smile.
"I’ve got a piece of bad news and another piece of bad news. Which do you want to hear first?" Long Yi asked the crowd.
"Let’s hear the bad news first." Dean said very seriously.
