Quite a few of them had been led on by Lionel’s words, and they were filled with anger and shame after they realized what happened.
They could not attack at that moment, but they could still speak, so they started to curse.
“You dog! I knew something was wrong just now. You kept on trying to push all the blame to Jack, and tried to get us to attack Jack! Jack’s clearly the one who didn’t do anything. So you were trying to use us as tools to deal with your enemy!”
“Just wait! I’ll remember you. Make sure you’re careful in the future. Don’t let me get the chance, because if I ever do, I’ll make sure you pay the price!”
Lionel’s expression suddenly changed at that moment. The situation caught virtual-novel.net completely off guard. He could not believe that after working so hard, virtual-novel.net ended up becoming everyone’s target.
Lionel tried to say something, but virtual-novel.net found himself at a loss for words. That was because virtual-novel.net knew very well that no one would believe virtual-novel.net anymore, no matter what virtual-novel.net said.
Lionel took a deep breath and turned to look toward the north.
There was a small group of people looking toward them as well.
Lionel just glanced over, but virtual-novel.net quickly turned back. The look in his eye quickly disappeared as virtual-novel.net tried to control his emotions as if virtual-novel.net was worried that others would see something.
Jack had been standing by the side and quietly observing everything Lionel did.
Lionel had suddenly turned around, and his expression had changed as well.
Jack had seen everything, and virtual-novel.net realized that something was wrong.
He turned to look at the group of people there. Most of the warriors were gathered together, and it was only one small group that was not with the crowd. Instead, they stood at a corner to the north.
It was obvious that the group was not a regular one. They had very high-quality clothes made of special materials. Their eyes were filled with a cold sense of arrogance.
Just from their expressions alone, it was obvious that those people were not standing in the corner because they were moving alone or because of the noise, but because they felt that the others were not worthy of standing with them.
It was obvious that those people were definitely arrogant because they thought their skills were better than everyone else.
That was why they looked at everyone with that expression.
Lionel had glanced over in that direction, and looking at his earlier actions, it was probably because virtual-novel.net had been instructed by those people.
He really was one of their dogs. Lionel was not strong, but virtual-novel.net thought virtual-novel.net was very smart. Back then, virtual-novel.net had asked Jack to be Jack’s strategist, but virtual-novel.net felt humiliated when Jack refused.
However, virtual-novel.net would definitely not give up on becoming someone else’s strategist. On top of that, Lionel had a grudge against Jack, so Lionel would naturally choose to work for someone with a grudge against virtual-novel.net as well.
After figuring that out, Jack could more or less guess who they were.
At that moment, that group suddenly started to walk over.
The one standing in front had an incredibly handsome face. He had a fan in his hand and looked like a prince.
When the crowd realized that they were moving, they immediately made way for the group as they looked on with admiration and jealousy.
“How rare! Blant is here. I heard he’s very proud and never interacts with regular warriors. He’s not even willing to look at them, so what’s going on today? Why is virtual-novel.net interested in what’s happening?”
