The Strongest Man in the Universe

The Strongest Man in the Universe
Chapter 708



The group continued towards Nightingale City. There were eight people in David's carriage before, but now there were only five people left.


In other words, three people were killed in the battle earlier.


This is just one carriage and there are many other deaths, adding to the number of deaths. If David acts early, he can save everyone. But he didn't do it.


David felt absolutely no guilt about this.


The law of nature is survival of the fittest. He could save them once, but what about the second time?


Moreover, not all of these adventurers were good people. Many of them had a lot of bad records and blood on their hands.


A carriage with three missing persons does not affect others. Clearly, they were already used to things like this.


In accordance with the name of the 'adventurers' who became their nickname, they would risk their lives to adventure.


Whether it was looking for opportunities in the Endless Forest or escorting cargo, they could die at any time.


Of course, in comparison, it would be much safer to escort the cargo.


The reason why everyone was willing to come to the Spirit Cage despite being in such a dangerous situation was, first, the scope of activities here was smaller, though, unlike in the real world where Leila was very big, and many people could only live in a small place.


Moreover, almost all of Leila's forces had invested a lot of manpower, materials, and financial resources into the Spirit Cage. As a result, it is easier to make money here than in the real world.


Hence, some people in a remote place wanted to enter the Spirit Cage. At the same time, they can also increase their mind power, so why not?


After a short distance, David started another conversation. Everyone suspected that David was the son of a certain wealthy family and he had come to the Spirit Cage in secret, so they flattered him and would tell David whatever they knew.


From the gang, David learns other information, which also dispels the doubts in his heart. When he first came to the Spirit Cage and walked out of the Endless Forest, he found several corpses along the way. He wanted to know why they had not forcibly left the Spirit Cage when they were in danger and dying. Not because I don't want to, but because I can't.


When people in the real world entered the Spirit Cage, they would descend to a fixed place, called a descending point. When they had to leave the Spirit Cage, they had to be within range of the descending point.


The cities above level three in Spirit Cage were all built around these descending points. The larger the city, the greater the point of decline. Countless people would come and go every day through this channel.


The place where the descending point was located was officially protected and did not belong to any power. Anyone who dared to take revenge and kill people here would be completely obliterated by the Spirit Cage once they were known to break the rules. This was the hard and precise rule of Spirit Cage.


Therefore, when one was being hunted, he would be safe as long as he ran to around the drop point. Those who pursue will also give up on chasing. The closest descending point to Crow City was Nightingale City. Except for the drop point, there was no other way to leave Spirit Cage.


When David learned of this information, he immediately remembered that after he left the Endless Forest and saw the corpses, he had once left Spirit Cage once. However, he immediately opened the system again and found an option to exit the Spirit Cage.


He wanted to make sure he could leave the Spirit Cage anytime, anywhere. David did not seem too surprised by this.


Along the way, the system too surprised David. At first he was a little surprised, but slowly, he became used to it. His insights had expanded because something from the God Level Civilization was on him, so he didn't seem to care much about other civilizations.


Inside another carriage, Beanie sat cross-legged with her eyes closed, recovering from her injuries. When he was suddenly attacked by a black masked man, he suffered serious injuries. The strength of the opponent was not weaker than him. Fortunately, there was an expert master who acted silently and let him escape the calamity. Otherwise, he'll get in trouble.


Nas and Nivia are resting in another carriage for fear of disturbing Beanie. Not long after, Beanie opened her eyes and exhaled. Thankfully, his injuries were not too serious. He was fine after taking the medicine.


An analysis formed in his mind. The expert master who took action secretly possessed an unfathomable power. No one could find him even after he injured the others, which was enough to show his strength. Such a strong person would never appear here for no reason, let alone save others for no reason. There must be a certain reason why he acted.


According to Beanie's guess, it may have something to do with an extraordinary young man named David.


Judging from Beanie's years of experience reading people, David is not a simple person. Some things cannot be faked. It will not work just by changing clothes.


To put it simply, no matter how pretty the clothes a beggar wore, he was still a beggar, and he would never become a noble. It would be reflected in his eyes, temperament, attitude, and tone of voice. David's eyes were firm, his temperament was outstanding, his demeanor was calm, and his tone was neither humble nor arrogant no matter when David spoke to Nas or him. These were not things that an ordinary adventurer possessed.


Even when Nas said he would not give him money and asked him to leave, David did not show his emotional turmoil or change the look in his eyes. He's still as calm as water.


Some details often explain the situation very well. Beanie could feel from David's eyes that he was looking down on all living things. Only by staying in a high position for a long time could one develop a gaze like this. Because of this, Beanie judged that the expert master who took action in secret might be here to protect David.


This could also explain why there was no one around David when everyone was fighting and he did not have a single frown on his clothes. That was because no one could get close to him at all. Not only that, when questioned by Nas, David also said that he had contributed, only that no one had seen him.


He indirectly said that he should get praise for saving everyone. That's why Beanie snapped at Nas when he disrespected David. If the strength of his guard was so terrifying, one could only imagine how powerful the power behind David was. Are they the ones the Nacht family can allude to?


One bodyguard alone could exterminate the Nacht family.


After they return, it may be time to have a meeting to learn about their family heir issues.


Judging from Nas' recent appearance, he simply did not have the vision and heart that a family head needed. It was not a wise decision to hand over the family to him.


It's a pity that Nivia is a princess. No matter how good he was, he was destined not to become the head of the Nacht family, and at most, he could only be like Beanie. However, what Beanie could not understand was why noble men like David joined the adventurer team recruited by the Nacht family.


'Is this training for him?


Or is there another purpose?'


Beanie thought for a long time, but could not figure out why. Therefore, he decided to forget about it.


'Who cares! Judging from how the other party saved me, they shouldn't be hostile towards the Nacht family. That's enough for me.'
