Red narrowed his eyes.
'You know what? I think I should answer the question that everyone wants to ask.'
Sebastian waited while Abyssal Depths tried her best to stop herself from interfering. She had accepted Kyle as the leader, and she had to follow his orders.
However, if Kyle didn't accept the offer, they would be attacked by at least five Adept Immortals. She knew that Kyle was powerful, but he couldn't possibly win against three or more Adept Immortals with only two Avatars. She just hoped that Kyle wouldn't make a stupid choice.
The Leader of the Rock Turner Team narrowed his eyes as he noticed Blue moving towards the surface of the hole, a complex network of Formation Arrays in tow. Shortly behind Blue was a stream of violent Gravity Water. Naturally, since Blue could no longer stay at the bottom, he couldn't suppress the stream anymore.
"I think we're going to decline the nice offer," Red answered as he pulled out his hammer.
Sebastian smiled while Abyssal Depths became horrified.
Why?!
Why would he make such an idiotic choice?!
Abyssal Depths could see her Avatar dying. For what purpose? What was the point of refusing this offer?! They couldn't harvest all of the valuables here anyway! They simply weren't strong enough yet!
And now, this idiot had doomed them!
Abyssal Depths' hands shook as she tried to keep her reaction in check.
Should she abandon the team? Nobody would fault her if she refused such a stupid order. Sure, abandoning one's team was frowned upon, but nobody would judge her. After all, her leader had made an insane decision that would kill the entire team! She could still save her Avatar.
"Why?!" Abyssal Depths transmitted to Kyle with enraged urgency. "What can we possibly gain here?!"
Red just smirked with arrogance but didn't answer. For once, Kyle would allow himself to go wild, within reason. He still couldn't show his true power, but today, he would show a little bit.
'I'm going to answer everyone's question today,' Kyle thought.
Blue appeared behind Red, surrounded by several complex Formation Arrays.
'Why did the Protector talk to me? That's what you all want to know, right? Well, I'll give you an answer. That answer might not reflect the truth, but it will be believable enough.'
The Leader looked at Kyle with disgust. "For pride, you've doomed your team. Leaders like you are the curse of the Immortal Dimension. You promise safety and riches for your team, but when you have to take a step back to protect your team, your pride overshadows your mind."
The stream of Gravity Water shot out of the hole around the team.
Abyssal Depths gritted her teeth as she tried to make a decision of her own.
