Chapter 194: Capturing the Giant Mosquito
In the living room of the villa, there was a moment of silence. Everyone remained quiet, as they found themselves in a desperate situation. If the giant mosquito was not handled properly, the problem in the Corpse Swamp could take an unknown amount of time to resolve.
Zhao Hai remained silent for a while before standing up and slowly walking out of the villa. Galen's expression changed, and he hurriedly followed closely behind Zhao Hai. When Merlin saw their expressions and recalled Zhao Hai's previous words, her face also changed slightly, and she quickly said, "Young master, let Galen go."
Zhao Hai shook his head and replied, "I'll go. If Grandpa Galen goes and that giant mosquito attacks, my reaction inside will always be a bit slow. Grandpa Galen could be in danger. I’ll go myself; if anything happens, I can return in a thought, faster than Grandpa Galen."
Galen turned to Zhao Hai and said, "Young master, take me with you. If anything dangerous happens, I can block for you."
Zhao Hai looked at Galen and said, "Grandpa Galen, you stay back. After all, I am the head of the Budah family, and I should face this. I can't always hide behind others. Don’t worry, I’ll be fine. If something really does happen to me, just find a place to hide for a few years and say I died, then look for a child and claim he is my son to inherit the position of clan leader."
Galen’s expression changed, and Meg’s eyes were filled with tears as she walked to Zhao Hai’s side and said, "Young master, I’ll go with you." Zhao Hai turned to Meg and shook his head.
However, Meg's expression was resolute as she held onto Zhao Hai's arm tightly, refusing to let go. This time, she did not mention going with Zhao Hai again; she simply held onto him.
Seeing Meg’s demeanor, Zhao Hai smiled helplessly. At that moment, Wood and Stone also came behind Zhao Hai. They did not say anything either but took their giant swords back into their hands and rested them on their shoulders.
Zhao Hai tapped his head and said to the two, "Here we go again! You guys can’t switch it up a bit? What are you following me for? If that giant mosquito really wants to attack us, what good would it do to stand in front of me?"
Galen chuckled lightly, "Young master, since things have come to this point, there’s no need to say anything else. Let’s go out together; if something happens, we’ll all die together."
Zhao Hai looked at Galen helplessly and said, "Grandpa Galen, why are you saying the same thing? Did you not understand what I just said? If something really happens to me, with you here, the Budah family won’t disappear. If we all disappear, the Budah family is finished."
Galen looked at Zhao Hai with slightly moist eyes, but he took a deep breath to suppress his emotions. He turned to Wood and Stone and said, "You two put down your swords. Don’t go with the young master. If something does happen, Zhao Hai will have to think about protecting you; it will affect his actions. Meg, just stay by the young master’s side."
Wood and Stone had to put their swords down. Zhao Hai nodded at them, and with a thought, the Evil Spirit Staff appeared in his hand. Then, he and Meg disappeared from outside the villa.
Zhao Hai’s reason for retrieving the Evil Spirit Staff first was that it was still in front of the giant mosquito, which was now flying in the sky. If they were to go directly out of the space, they would fall from the sky and die since they couldn’t fly.
The giant mosquito was also dazed, as a ninth-level expert, it was surprised that the staff disappeared from its hand. While it was in a daze, a man and a woman suddenly appeared below it, with the man holding the staff.
Looking up at the giant mosquito, Zhao Hai raised his voice, "I am Zhao Hai Budah, the head of the Budah family. Please meet, my lord." It was not an overstatement for the family head to address a ninth-level expert as "my lord." Even a king of a country would greet an unfamiliar ninth-level expert in kind.
