Aside from Chester, Dax and the others quickly changed into the divine soldiers' armor.
Darryl's plan was rather simple: Dax and the others would pretend to be divine soldiers. Then, Chester would escape, while Dax and the other fake divine soldiers would pretend to chase after him.
Seeing everyone had changed into the armor, Darryl inhaled deeply, and his face turned extremely solemn. While this seemed to be a straightforward plan, it was also extremely dangerous, especially in the following segment. It had to be flawless.
"Brother Chester." Darryl said to Chester, "It's almost time. Let's do it." As he spoke, he paid attention to the surroundings of the side hall.
It was already late at night, and the divine soldiers patrolling near the side hall were few.
Chester answered and, without any hesitation, activated his internal energy and rushed to the sky, creating a hole in the ceiling of the side hall and causing a loud noise.
The noise instantly attracted the attention of many divine soldiers.
"What happened?"
"Someone came out!"
"It's Chester Wilson!"
The divine soldiers, though furious at the sight of Chester mid-air, were pleased. After all, they had been digging deep all day, yet they failed to find the entrance of the secret tunnel, much to their exasperation. They were surprised to see Chester coming out on his own.
"Are you finally coming out?" As a dozen divine soldiers charged forward, Darryl, who was hiding in the side hall, shouted and pointed at Chester. "Let's see where else you can run to."
He shouted at Dax and the others who were in the side hall. "Catch him!"
'Heh…'
Facing Darryl's shout, Chester chuckled and shouted in return, "I'll leave, and none of you can stop me!"
With that, he turned around and flew far away.
At that moment, Dax and the others, still donning the divine soldiers' armor, rushed out and shouted at Chester as they chased after him.
"How dare you try and run?! Stop!"
