Chapter 4413
"Quickly!"
Darryl shoved the herbs at the two women when he reached them. He looked solemn as he said, "There's no time to make the pills; you'll just have to eat the herbs raw. This will counter the Bone Weakener's effects."
Celine and Queenie gulped the herbs.
Then, Queenie asked, "Brother-in-law, I thought you would keep racing that b*stard."
Darryl smiled and stroked Queenie's head. "Would I be so foolish? I only wanted to divert Sergio's attention. I have no intention of competing with him at all."
Indeed, Darryl's bet had been a ploy.
However, to avoid Sergio's suspicions, Darryl had used the plank as a surfboard to make it seem like he wanted to win. That had worked in successfully tricking Sergio.
Darryl only wanted to save Celine and Queenie.
Celine was a clever lady and understood his intentions at once. She smiled lightly and nodded as she said, "You sure are full of wonderful tricks."
Queenie piped up as well. "Let's get out of here before that b*stard returns."
Queenie pulled at Celine and Darryl with her hands as she spoke, moving to leave the place.
However, Darryl shook his head. "No, we can't."
"Why not?"
Queenie stood rooted to the ground, confusion all over her face. "Why not?
This is the best chance to leave."
Darryl took a deep breath, looking at his surroundings as he spoke slowly," All three of US are incredibly weak. We won't be able to run very far, no matter how hard we try. He's going to catch up. It's not a good idea to run now."
Celine fell silent, pondering briefly before nodding in agreement. "That's right. If we leave now, he'll find US in the end."
Queenie grew anxious at the words, looking close to tears. "Then what should we do?"
The mere thought of Sergio's disgusting gaze made Queenie's stomach turn. She would rather die than lose her purity to him. 1
Celine did not respond. She looked at Darryl.
She knew that Darryl would have a plan, or he would have never struck up that bet with Sergio.
Sensing Queenie's nerves, Darryl flashed a placating smile. "Don't worry."
Then, Darryl returned to the cave entrance. He put out the fire and began moving some stones. He had thought it through-he would cast the Five Delusions formation and then hide in it with the two women.
The Five Delusions Formation was incredibly complex, and Sergio would not be able to crack it. He would not be able to see what was going on inside the formation either.
Of course, Darryl understood the risks of what he was doing. However, he had no choice but to give it a shot. The safest hiding spots were always found in the most dangerous places. Sergio would never be able to guess that Darryl had not left and was still hiding in that cave.
