Chapter 24: Chapter 24

With only two minutes remaining, four carriages awaited at the town’s gathering point.

A large group of frenzied townspeople arrived, with some noticing Yi Chen approaching from the lakeside, turning to chase him.

At that moment, one of the carriage’s rear compartments suddenly opened, and a muscular arm extended—Dagobert from the Northern Territory, who had previously worked with them.

Beside him sat the blond-haired Edmund, who waved to Yi Chen.

"Isn’t that William? Come on, we’re just one person short."

At this critical moment when the test was about to end, there was no need to refuse.

He quickly stepped forward. When Yi Chen extended his hand to clasp Dagobert’s, an immense force pulled him into the carriage without even needing to jump.

Edmund, seated next to him, closed the door.

Now that the carriage was full, the driver didn’t wait.

Yi Chen quickly looked away and blinked.

The [Lock-On] was immediately released.

Edmund seemed to sense Yi Chen’s glance but didn’t care at all.
