Chapter 102: Mr. Clown

When they saw the figure walking out from behind the collapsed tower, the members of the City of Silver’s exploration team immediately adopted guarded postures, ready at any moment to launch an attack or provide defense.

In their eyes, the man in strange clothes and a strange hat was no different from a monster—and an extremely terrifying one at that!

Even an ordinary Beyonder, once their body had undergone such a degree of mutation, could already be considered a monster!

Seeing the reaction of those half-giants, Klein split his mouth into a grin and said, all smiles, “Hello, everyone. I am Gehrman Sparrow.

“You should count yourselves lucky that I can still control myself. Otherwise, you would already have lost your sanity for looking directly at me.”

As he spoke, the transparent worms on the left side of his face and neck continued crawling slowly. Beneath the clothes on his left side, raised traces surfaced one after another, squirming gently.

Monster! The members of the City of Silver’s exploration team who were not demigods became even more certain of their judgment.

“You are… you are Mr. Wo—no, Mr. Sparrow?” Derrick Berg finally managed to recognize Mr. World, whom he had once met.

Klein raised his left palm and covered the left side of his face. With a smile, he said, “Life is always full of unexpected things.”

Without waiting for Little Sun to respond, Klein paused and continued, “I’ve already opened the door to the Giant King’s residence. That brought about some accidents, causing changes in the divine kingdom.”

Already opened the door to the Giant King’s residence? Colin Iliad, whose hair was graying and whose face bore old scars, felt his gaze sharpen. Almost instinctively, he raised his head and looked toward the magnificent complex bathed in golden sunlight.

But because the distance was too great, he couldn’t make out the situation at the highest point.

However, the fact that the frozen twilight had been replaced by the blazing sun of noon already said much.

Klein’s gaze swept across the Chief of the City of Silver and Lovia, the elder of the six-member council dressed in black armor, before returning to The Sun Derrick’s face. His smile was obvious as he went on.

“This has also brought me some negative effects, as you can see.”

At this point, he clapped his hands and said in a tone as though instructing children, “All right. Any Beyonder below the demigod level should leave this place. The Giant King’s Court after its mutation is not somewhere you can explore deeply.”

The exploration team members apart from Colin, Derrick, and Lovia inexplicably felt a certain fear. One after another, they looked toward the Chief.

Colin Iliad remained silent for a few seconds. Then he turned his head and said to them, “Leave the Giant King’s Court first. Wait at the edge. If you see the signal, immediately act according to the predetermined plan.”

The carefully selected exploration team members were not only fairly powerful, close to demigods themselves, but also carried different powerful Sealed Artifacts that complemented one another. Even against a Saint, they would not necessarily be without a chance. But in the City of Silver’s original plan, they had never been intended to serve as the main force. Colin Iliad had brought them because, if he and the other demigods were to fight potential enemies until they had no strength left, these team members could play their corresponding roles. They could also rely on different Sealed Artifacts to handle different accidents, ensuring that the team had no obvious weak point.

Now, however, with a powerful external helper joining them, and with the Giant King’s Court indeed having changed, no one knew what they might encounter deeper inside. Out of caution, Colin Iliad believed there was nothing wrong with Gehrman Sparrow’s suggestion. In his private heart, he also felt that members below the demigod level should not bear unnecessary risks or…
