The Legendary Man novel Chapter 587

Chapter 587 Bait

Meanwhile, inside the mist wall, Jonathan stared at the vine beneath his feet with a solemn look on his face.

A little over an hour ago, he was planning on using the white mist to hide his tracks and leave Summerbank Abyss to escape Joselle’s pursuit. After that, he would change directions and go back in.

However, he would end up back inside the mist wall every time he tried to step out of it.

On his third attempt at leaving, Jonathan came up with an idea to prevent himself from losing his way. He chopped down a thick tree trunk and made a javelin out of it. After that, he tied a long vine to the javelin and hurled it out of the mist wall.

Even so, he still found himself back inside Summerbank Abyss after following the vine until the end.

This is the third time I’ve failed to leave this place! Hmm… I should be at least a thousand meters away from where I chopped that tree down earlier. The vine isn’t broken anywhere, so its length should be about one to two hundred meters at most. How could it possibly show up a thousand meters away? Is this some kind of space-altering formation?

Jonathan frowned as he picked up a rock about the size of a basketball, made a mark on it, and tossed it at the mist wall.

If there really is a formation in this mist that can alter space, then the rock should be somewhere near this mist wall.

With that in mind, Jonathan activated his spiritual sense and began memorizing every single detail of his surroundings as he ran toward his right.

In about three thousand meters, Jonathan stopped running and quickly made his way toward the dense jungle.

Picking up a rock from beneath a huge tree, he turned it around. Sure enough, it had the mark that he made earlier.

So, I was right!

Jonathan crushed the rock in his hand as he glanced about.

While I may not have escaped the mist wall during my previous attempts, I have been traversing it for quite a while. Considering how I haven’t been attacked by Joselle so far, I’d say I’m pretty safe in here. Still, this place is really strange. Every time I find a means to exit, I always end up in a completely new and unfamiliar place. I came here to get the life-saving pill, but finding the pill won’t do me any good if I can’t get out of here and deliver it to Sophia!

Anxious, Jonathan gave it some thought before reaching into his pocket and pulling out the broken bronze mirror.

He then channeled his spiritual energy and began writing a message on the bronze mirror: Sofus, there’s a space-altering formation in the mist wall. I need a way out of here.

Jonathan was quite certain that Sofus was behind everything that happened after he entered the mist wall.

Despite how great Sofus made it all sound, he did keep its dangers a secret. He even said anyone could enter and exit the mist wall freely, but that was clearly not the case here.

That, combined with the creepy guy in black, made this whole thing seem like a trap.

Of course, those were simply Jonathan’s suspicions, as he had yet to obtain any evidence to back those theories up.
