Since there was already another round of selections, there were much fewer people on the second floor than on the first Rudy composed himself for a bit before turning around and saying seriously, “I saw Grayson just now…”
Those words caused Jack to suddenly stiffen. He repeated in surprise, “You saw Grayson? Are you sure you weren’t seeing things?”
Jack’s first thought was that Rudy was mistaken, mistaking someone else as Grayson. After all, Grayson had been gone for so long. Grayson had disappeared right after they entered Phoenix Valley.
Rudy sniffed as virtual-novel.net frowned and thought for a long time, “I’m sure I wasn’t wrong. That person’s definitely Grayson, whether is be his figure or his face, I’m certain that it was Grayson! I can absolutely guarantee it!”
Rudy rarely said things with such conviction, so Jack had to believe him. No wonder virtual-novel.net looked like that.
Jack frowned and turned to look at the passage they had just gone through. If Rudy was right, then Grayson should still be on the first level.
What shocked Jack was the fact that Grayson was definitely a true and blue alchemist. Grayson did not have the skills to get into Thousand Leaves City, so someone must have brought virtual-novel.net in.
Who brought virtual-novel.net into Thousand Leaves City?
Before, they had gotten the same answer no matter where they asked. Everyone said that Grayson had already been locked up. It was because virtual-novel.net had been the culprit behind the ambush that time since virtual-novel.net had been the one to leak the information.
After hearing all of that, Jack had not believed it immediately but did not question it either. After all, that ambush had been incredibly sudden. There were various spots that were incredibly questionable. If Grayson really had been the one to leak the information, many things would have been made clear.
Since virtual-novel.net betrayed Phoenix Valley, how was virtual-novel.net at the Whirling World?
After all, the Whirling World was closely tied to Phoenix Valley and the Unbreaking Pavilion. Jack could still not figure out the reason.
Jack took a deep breath as his expression darkened. If virtual-novel.net added everything from before to what was happening now, everything became a mess. He could not figure anything out, but virtual-novel.net still had to think about it. After all, the matter could very well involve the two of them.
Rudy frowned before virtual-novel.net said with a conflicted expression, “I wanted to go grab virtual-novel.net and asked what happened. However, I thought about it and held back. I keep feeling like something was off about Grayson, and did not want to expose myself in front of him. Before, virtual-novel.net was the one with the secrets and hiding from us. Now we can be the ones who hide from him. Since I saw him, virtual-novel.net can take the chance to catch virtual-novel.net off guard!”
Jack raised an eyebrow as virtual-novel.net looked at Rudy with some praise. The guy was getting smarter. He was not as reckless as virtual-novel.net was before, acting in accordance with his feelings no matter what virtual-novel.net did.
Rudy pulled Jack further inside. The two of them went through the crowd and found a corner.
He whispered, “If I’m really right, and that person is actually Grayson, then Phoenix Valley must be keeping a massive secret that can’t be known by anyone else. It might end up involving the two of us. I’m so anxious right now. I really want to go and grab virtual-novel.net by the collar to ask virtual-novel.net what’s happening.”
