Life After Prison by Silencieux novel Chapter 1764

Elsa lamented, "We might not have any other option in that scenario. Killing them is inevitable. We're going to reach the miniature black tower soon anyway, so let's assess the situation again once we get there. We might even be able to negotiate with them."

Severin agreed. "That will do too. Let's have a look first and decide once we have some idea of the situation."

A few more minutes passed. Severin and Elsa's both had a sudden change in expression.

"Run! Hurry up! We're going to get killed!" A group of disciples were fleeing in a panic as a gigantic python hunted them.

"We're doomed! That spirit beast is at least as powerful as a level one royal saint!" A level eight saint went pale with fright as he glanced back at the creature.

Although the giant python was still some distance away, it was only a matter of minutes before they chased up to them.

"You guys go ahead. I'll hold it off." One of the female disciples tightened her grip on her sword. She stopped and turned to the others before making a brave decision to stay behind. They were all individuals from a second-tier sect known as the Airblack Sect. The woman who chose to stay behind was Phyllia, a young prodigy and the leader of the Airblack Sect's disciples.

"I'll stay and help you, Phyllia! The rest of you should escape while you can!" said Danny, a level eight saint who was part of Phyllia's team. He had resolved to remain by Phyllia's side.

Severin agreed. "You're right. There's a chance they might not even realize the usefulness of the miniature black tower."

Elsa then suggested, "Or we could wait for that python to kill them, and then eliminate the python after that. Once the python is dead, we can easily claim the black tower without raising any suspicion. It might be the safer course of action."

Severin pondered over her suggestion but eventually shook his head. "Their willingness to sacrifice themselves so their juniors can escape is worthy of praise. I cannot bring myself to watch them meet their end just like that."

Having made up his mind, Severin dashed straight for the giant python.
