Winner Takes All novel Chapter 1020

The thundering roar of the beast resounded inside the castle.

Under everyone’s attention, Jack’s expression was serious as he stepped into the cage.

Bang!

The huge metal door was closed.

“Jack…”

A crying voice suddenly came from his back.

Jack slowly turned around and he saw Amanda’s pink face as she forced herself to suppress her sorrow under the bright light.

He smiled gently.

It was right after that.

Amanda shouted slowly, “Sir…you must get out alive!”

Jack nodded and then he gradually turned around.

His actions were slow under the spotlight. As he turned around, the gentle smile on his face disappeared but it was replaced by endless gloom and grimness.

Subconsciously, he put his right hand on his belt at his waist as Cynthia had just quietly handed a dagger to him.

At this moment…the only thing he could rely on was this dagger!

“Get out of there? What a joke!”

The Hun King stared at Jack’s back sternly after hearing Amanda’s words, “If you can defeat the Snow Lion alone, then I will have not lost so many beloved generals in the past!”

The Hun King murmured and only a few guards around him could hear it.

It was in the next second.

The Hun King flashed his eyes and shouted, “Greedy Wolf, I make another promise to you. If you can get out alive, I will not only forgive you and promote you to be the Hun General, but also erect a monument for you in the city to be worshipped by the future generation as the honour of the Hun!”

“Father, that is enough!”

Cynthia yelled as her pretty face was overwhelmed with seriousness.

The Hun King was indeed making a promise.

However, everybody was clear that it would be certain death in facing the Snow Lion alone!

Moreover, Jack did not have a spear or a horse in the cage. The only thing that could serve as a weapon was the dagger which she had just quietly handed to him!

She knew the details about her father’s capture of the Snow Lion. So, she was clear that the dagger would only cause little effect as well as making no difference!

In order to capture it alive, they were unable to fire it with bullets. The common bullets could not cause much damage to the Snow Lion. Eventually, the Snow Lion was captured successfully by sacrificing human lives to make it exhausted!

It could indeed demonstrate his courage and win people’s support by making a promise to the survivor.

However, making such a promise to the dead was a naked and sarcastic humiliation!

Jack was the man whom she had been admiring every day and wanted to marry!

He was chosen by her from among all the others to be “the sharpest weapon to attack southward”.

Due to this change and because the Hun King was her father, she was already finding room for manoeuvre for both parties. However, she really did not expect Jack to draw the Snow Lion directly from the fate sticks.

When the guard shouted out the words “Snow Lion”, Cynthia already felt dazed and gloomy as if the sky was spinning and darkness was descending.

But there was nothing she could do to stop it. Everything was up to fate.

She even had been mentally prepared for Jack’s death.

However, she would not allow her father to still humiliate and mock Jack at this moment.

A man’s dignity should be upheld even if he was dead!

The Hun King’s face immediately turned gloomy after hearing Cynthia’s rebuke.

He was the Hun King above all the others and it was a bit embarrassing to be reprimanded by his own daughter in the public.

But…Cynthia was his daughter.

This made him helpless!

It was also at this moment.

Jack who had already turned around in the cage suddenly sneered.

“The Hun King, this is what you have promised. A ruler has to be responsible for his order. If I can really get out of the cage alive today, I still hope that you won’t…break your promise!”

The words were resounding. He was very confident instead of being angry at the humiliation by the Hun King.

This confident level was looking down on the Hun King invisibly.
