Chapter 3977
Jack pretended to still be heavily injured as he clutched his chest and adjusted his speed, slowlydescending to the ground.
Triton naturally slowed down as well, but he took the chance to get within fifteen meters of Jack.
At that distance, there was no way Jack would be able to run away. Even if Jack wanted to avoid hisattack, there was no way to do that at this distance.
Triton let out a sigh of relief as well after getting closer. He had a pleased smile and an amused look onhis face, looking like a cat that had just caught its prey.
Jack took a deep breath as he slowly turned around to look at Triton with complete calmness.
When Triton saw Jack's calm expression, his lips froze, and he frowned slightly. That was Triton's firsttime facing Jack.
He had heard a lot about Jack's exploits before this and knew that Jack never showed much emotion.He never expected Jack to remain so calm even at a moment like this. It was as if whatever washappening did not threaten Jack at all.
Triton wondered if Jack just had a naturally cold face or if there was something wrong with Jack's head.
Regardless, it did not matter. Jack would not be able to escape his grasp. Triton narrowed his eyesslightly as he started to measure Jack up as if he was thinking about what torture methods he wouldinflict upon Jack.
Triton's tone was very carefree. It was evident he was in a good mood.
"You don't seem nervous at all. Have you already accepted your inevitable fate?"
Jack shook his head slightly without answering Triton's question.
Triton did not mind. It did not matter if Jack was speaking or not since everything would be revealedsoon enough.
Triton held his head high and declared, "Brat, you humiliated Star Continent back then, and completelytrampled over the dignity of our warriors. You should have thought of the price you would be payingtoday."
Jack's expression suddenly changed after hearing what Triton had to say.
Jack's lips curled up as he sneered, "Are all the warriors of Star Continent really that good at twistingthe truth? You were clearly the ones who tried to cause me trouble in the first place, but you talk as if itwas the other way around."
Triton frowned as his expression stiffened.novelbin
Jack was telling the truth. Triton had already looked into it, and the source of the conflict was indeedcaused by those idiots trying to cause Jack trouble. However, the situation had been quite special.
No one expected that Jack would actually be a warrior at the peak!
However, there was no point in talking about that anymore.
Triton scoffed as he said coldly, "There's no need to bring that up. Back then, Percy had alreadyapologized to you, but you refused to let the matter go and killed two of our men. That was a clear signthat you were declaring war on us!"
Jack tilted his head away slightly, not even bothering to look at Triton.
He continued in a cold tone, "Don't you think it's funny for you to say that? They went on the stage tokill me, yet they expect everything to be resolved with just a simple apology. If they could aim for mylife, why couldn't I do the same? An eye for an eye, this is a rule that'll never change."
Triton's face started to redden indignantly at Jack's words. He suddenly realized that he was nowherenear as skilled as Jack when it came to words!
So, Triton decided to just avoid the topic. "Fine! There's no point in talking about this anymore. Jack, I'llgive you a chance to save yourself right now. If you answer all my questions obediently, I'll let you die aquick death. Otherwise, I'll make sure to savor every last bit of value you have before your death."
After Triton said his piece, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a cruel look flashed in his eyes.
The value he was referring to was pointing to the fact that he would use cruel methods to slowly tortureJack to death and get Jack's Heartblood if Jack did not listen to him.
