When a person has left his life and death behind, many things that should be threats will no longer be threats to him.

And fearless people can often show unprecedented toughness at critical moments when principles are touched.

"……What do you mean?"

Facing the tall black figure sitting steadily on the main seat, talking with an expression that was difficult for everyone to distinguish, John was fearless at this moment.

After all, despite the fact that he has only shown his unreliable side to others for a long time in the past, he is actually one of the most talented and capable members of the Stewart family in recent generations. At the same time, he is obviously also

He has a very strong sense of belonging to the family, otherwise he would not be included among the final executors of such an important task as this one.

Now, when he needs to stand alone at such a critical point, the attitude he shows exactly proves this point.

Unfortunately……

"I don't have any 'meaning', because I just want to objectively explain a fact to you." The Lord of the Living Corpses opposite looked at John, who rarely looked serious and cold, but still said calmly, "At most...

...Just because Bai Ye seems to have recognized you as a friend, I would like to give you a kind reminder first so that you can be more or less mentally prepared for the answer I will give you next."

After explaining it so lightly, the Lord of the Living Corpses put down the goblet he was still holding in his hand. As the bottom of the cup fell on the table with a crisp sound, John originally asked the question in person, but after thinking about it,

But the answer that he probably didn't necessarily want to know spread from his mouth to the ears of everyone present.

"That teammate of yours left this land a few days ago and went to the east... Let me think about it, what did you humans call that place in the past... Oh, 'Holland'?"

At this point, the Lord of Living Corpses did not say anything further. Whether it was explanation, discussion or explanation, he obviously did not intend to speak. Because judging from John Stewart's performance in the past few days, the other party was definitely not

A stupid person can even be said to be quite smart - someone who can live here as a human being who knew almost nothing about this place not long ago, and immediately grasp the right balance of advance and retreat, how can he be a fool?

?

And since he is a smart person, he should be able to realize what it means for his teammate who was lucky enough to survive to suddenly break away from the plan and go to the Netherlands today!

Yes, when he was thinking about why his uncle couldn't find a way to meet him, he immediately considered many possibilities. But now, if what the Lord of Living Corpses in front of him said is true, then all that

The possibility will almost cease to exist.

After that, uncle Jason immediately abandoned the original plan... No, considering that the location where their team was attacked at that time was actually not too far inland, it can even be said that the opponent may have started from the beginning.

I never planned to follow the plan properly from the beginning!

Why? Does the younger uncle have any dissatisfaction with the family? Or is there actually some secret mission assigned to him alone, so that not even the other members of the team, including himself, know about it?

No matter what the reason is, it is probably the worst thing for John at the moment.

"……I do not believe."

This time, John was silent for a long time, and what he chose in the end... was probably the only choice he could make, which was to express his doubts about the words of the Lord of the Living Corpses from the root.

Because if what the other party said is true, it means that John Stewart...maybe even all the team members on this trip except his uncle Jason are abandoned.

"Sir, I hope you can have a solid reason to convince me... No, I don't 'hope'... but you can still use solid reasons and evidence to prove what you said."

After saying this coldly, John probably finally realized that his tone was a bit too harsh, and after a slight pause, he couldn't help but add another sentence.

"Oh, of course...for the sake of me also hoping to become friends with Miss Bai Ye."

When things have reached this point, it is no longer a question of whether his teammates are still okay. Now that the other party has thrown out such a "fact", no matter how true or false it is, before he can figure out the truth for himself, he will have to fight with the living zombies.

Breaking up with the Lord of Living Corpses is undoubtedly the most unwise behavior.

What's more, does the other party have any reason to lie and deceive me about this matter?

At least for now, John has not found any decent reason for the other party to deceive him about such an insignificant and insignificant uninvited guest.

On the other side, when John heard what John said - especially the soft tone at the end, the first person to react was not the Lord of the Living Corpses who had closed his mouth, but the Living Corpse Lord sitting not far away.

Corpse Girl White Night.

As a "guest character" mentioned by the owner and John as an excuse, Bai Ye seemed quite innocent, but after looking back and forth at both sides, she still smiled and said:

"I don't seem to be that important anymore. I don't have the right to ask the master to give me any face... It's just that Mr. Stewart is indeed a pretty good human being. I see you as my friend! As for... hmm?"

Bai Ye couldn't continue because she was quickly blocked by the eldest sister next to her with a piece of yellow peach. Obviously, the latter was much smarter than her, and it was clear that now was not the time to talk about this.

However, the tall figure on the main seat chuckled lightly at this time. After nodding gently at Bai Ye who looked confused, he turned his head and looked at John who was still standing there again and said:

"If you insist on providing evidence, I don't have it. Although I have confirmed the whereabouts of your teammate, I have not actually seen him, and I have not intercepted anything that can be brought back to prove. But... you

He is from the Stewart family, so this...maybe able to give you some indirect inspiration."

While speaking, everyone present saw the Lord of the Living Corpses suddenly raise his right hand, and his index finger with sharp nails like claws gently moved in the air, using magic color to outline a shape out of thin air.

It was a symbol that seemed particularly familiar to some people. So much so that before he finished drawing it, someone had blurted it out subconsciously.

"This...this is!"
