He turned around to look at Edward, who was still trying to completely suppress his injuries. Even if one of them had to die in the end, Chris was at least sixty to seventy percent confident that he would be able to win if the opponent was Edward.
However, if he faced Fane alone, his chances of winning were lower than ten percent. Chris clenched his teeth with that thought in mind as he started to feel a little anxious. Edward was trying his best to suppress his injuries, and Chris needed to buy Edward as much time as possible.
They would only stand a chance against Fane if both of them attacked together! Feeling Chris' gaze, Edward forced the pain down as he slowly opened his eyes to look back.
The two of them immediately conveyed their plans to each other in that brief moment. They knew that they needed to buy time. Edward was heavily injured at that moment, so the person who would have to do it was Chris.
Chris' lips twitched. He had always been an arrogant person. If he wanted to talk to someone, he would, if he did not want to, then his mouth would be completely shut. He had never engaged in any idle chit-chat before. It was much harder considering the fact that the target was Fane, who he had insulted before.
He was incredibly reluctant, but he could do nothing about it. He took a deep breath and looked at Fane, "I'll admit that I misjudged you earlier, but you have to admit that you deliberately hid who you were back then!"Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
Fane scoffed at those words and then looked at Chris like he was looking at an idiot. Fane had noticed Chris' look with Edward earlier. After all, the two of them were right in front of Fane.
Fane was no idiot. He naturally knew
that the two of them planned on stalling for time so Edward could suppress his internal injuries. Even if Edward could not completely recover, there was a chance that Edward could fight at seventy or eighty percent of his abilities. Then Fane would be faced with two opponents!
They wanted to work together to defeat him, so Fane decided to give them the chance. He could take opportunity to train himself. With that in mind, Fane took a dee breath and decided to play along with Chris.
"What are you saying? Why would I admit to something I haven't done? I've already said it before, you were the one who was blind, so why are you blaming me?"
Chris perked up when he saw that Fane had answered. He was worried that Fane would have seen through their plan. It seemed like Fane might be strong, but he was not intelligent.
Chris frowned as he said, "If one person couldn't tell, then that person was probably mistaken, but not a single one of the ten participants could tell. It means that you're a good actor!"
Fane raised an eyebrow, saying with not much emotion, "Absurd! You're just trying everything you can to drag my reputation down, right?!"
The two of them constantly argued
in the isolated space, but the warriors in the viewing area could tell what was happening. Quite a few of them could see what Chris and Edward were planning, and a warrior from White Marsh Continent started to frown.
