Chapter 1810Chapter 1810
“Princess Anne, there is no King of Herbs here. If you want to save your father, you must heed my
words. Once you have the power, you will not only be able to save your father but even resurrect him, if
you so desire,” Alex said.
Anne was stumped. She cast a blank look at Andrew and asked, “What is going on, Andrew? There's no
King of Herbs here?”
She had only taken the risk to come here because Andrew told her so.
After all, Andrew was the guard whom she trusted the most. In fact, he was the only person she trusted.
However, right then, Andrew kept his head low and dared not look at her, nor did he dare to make a
peep.
At the sight of his demeanor, Anne finally had an inkling of what was going on.
Devastated by the betrayal, Anne bellowed, “Andrew, you lied to me, right? Why? Why did you lie? Say
something...”
She punched her trusted guard repeatedly in exasperation.
novelbinWith a plop, Andrew dropped to the ground on his knees. “Princess Anne, I am sorry. I had no other
choice. My wife and children are in Alex's hands. I can only listen to him...”
Anne's body shook from boiling fury. Her eyes were filled with despair. Not only was her brother after her,
but her most trusted warrior had also betrayed her. All of a sudden, she felt that her life was
meaningless.“Princess Anne, always remember that in this world, your own strength is the only thing you can truly rely
on. Therefore, you must focus on improving yourself. And now, I'm here to offer you an opportunity to do
just that...”
Then, Alex signaled two men in black aside to carry Anne to the altar.
After tying Anne to the stone pillar in the middle of the altar, the two men in black left.
Meanwhile, Alex slowly walked up to the altar, carrying a crystal in his hand.
There was an opening at the edge of the altar for the crystal.
The altar would be officially complete once the crystal was in place.
Alex carefully placed the crystal in the opening.
With a loud hum, the entire altar emitted a dazzling light, and then, like flashes of lightning, the light
began to flicker continuously above the ancient ruins.
The entire snow mountain started to rumble.
“Hahaha... I've finally done it... Come midnight, demons will finally grace the earth with their presence...”
Alex let out a raucous laughter like a madman.
Andrew was filled with guilt as he looked at Anne, who was tied to a pillar on the altar.
However, now that things had come to this, there was no turning back. He had no other choice left.
Boom!
The snow-capped mountain shook again, and the snow started collapsing.“What's happening? Is it an earthquake?” Danny asked anxiously when he felt the tremor.
None of them would be able to walk out of there alive if it was an earthquake.
“D*mn it! That traitor has completed the altar. We have to find the entrance to the ancient ruins before
midnight! Otherwise, we're all doomed when he succeeds in summoning demons,” Joel said with a grim
look.
However, before they could finish their words, a loud rumble suddenly erupted, and they saw avalanches
happening all over the snow mountain!
The snow that had been covering the mountain collapsed extensively, exposing the brown rocks
beneath.
After some time, the mountain finally stopped rumbling. However, the top of the mountain was no longer
covered in snow, and the large rocks underneath were revealed.
“Can we locate the entrance to the ancient ruins without the snow?” Jared asked Joel.
“Yes.”
Joel nodded. The bronze handbell in his hands suddenly shook violently, sending sound waves that
enveloped the entire mountaintop.
Sensing Joel's presence, Alex, who was in the ancient ruins, furrowed his brows. “Why is the blind
geezer here?”
“Omar!” Alex shouted.
