Chapter 120: Teleported to Another Place
With a calm demeanor, Bonnie simply remarked to Jeremy.
"I hope you will consider your own safety more. It is not always necessary for you to put yourself at risk to save others."
Jeremy nodded in acknowledgment as he gazed at Bonnie.
In the blink of an eye, he vanished amidst a flash of white light.
Master Bard then coughed twice and, with a hint of profundity, remarked, "Such persuasion is bound to fail.
Jeremy is an exceptionally capable man.
Once such a man has resolved to pursue a goal, he will do so with unwavering determination. Your words will only serve to solidify his resolve further. He will become even less mindful of his own safety."
As Master Bard uttered these words, his gaze was directed toward the city walls of Nocturne City. Nevertheless, everyone could discern that his remarks were intended for Bonnie.
Nina approached and sat beside Bonnie
Gently hugging her arm and whispering, "Bonnie, I believe you don\'t need to worry. Jeremy is more than capable of ensuring his own safety. All we need to do is wait for his return."
Bonnie slowly nodded, seemingly acknowledging Nina\'s reassurance.
However, the concern etched on Bonnie\'s face betrayed her true feelings.
Deep down, she remained profoundly worried about Jeremy.
Yet, no matter how much she fretted, all Bonnie could do now was await Jeremy\'s return.
Jeremy\'s objective was to ascertain whether it was indeed the intervention of the class change goddess Janna that had enabled him to escape his predicament.
When Jeremy finally encountered Janna, her condition had significantly improved compared to before.
She appeared to have regained the strength of her deity.
Upon seeing Jeremy, a faint smile graced Janna\'s lips. "No need to thank me, it was my duty. After all, with your own power alone, it would have been impossible to defeat the Sun Knights."
Before Jeremy could even voice his questions, Janna candidly admitted that it was she who had provided the necessary assistance.
"Why didn\'t you just let Bonnie and me leave the instance and return to the real world? Since you were able to teleport us out of Nocturne City, you should be capable of sending us back to reality, right?"
Jeremy\'s voice carried a hint of discontent.
From his perspective, the class change goddess Janna\'s actions were merely wasting his time.
If there was a way to avoid a direct confrontation with the Sun, Jeremy would prefer to take it. After all, the Sun was on the same level as the Fool, making it a formidable adversary.
Janna hadn\'t anticipated that her assistance would not only fail to elicit gratitude from Jeremy but would actually provoke his irritation.
"My powers have indeed recovered to some extent, but they have not yet reached the level required to send you back to the real world. You must provide me with more energy crystals as soon as possible."
"I can\'t do that! The only place to find that many energy crystals is within Nocturne City, but the city is far too dangerous for me.
It\'s teeming with Sun Knights and Eternal Light, all of whom serve the Sun and are undoubtedly intent on annihilating me. Are you not aware of these circumstances at all?!"
Jeremy increasingly felt that the class change goddess Janna was feigning ignorance.
It seemed that only now did Janna finally understand why Jeremy was upset.
She could only respond in a slightly apologetic tone, "The reason I was able to teleport you out of Nocturne City wasn\'t solely due to the recovery of my powers. More importantly, it\'s because the Sun has taken notice of you.
When the Sun\'s attention was on you, I could leverage his power to successfully rescue you. However, this also means that the Sun can now track your location at any time.
You must find a way to hide yourselves. If you truly can\'t find more energy crystals, I will need approximately seven days to regain enough power to send you back to the real world."
Janna\'s words only served to heighten Jeremy\'s anxiety.
The reason he was so agitated upon meeting Janna was that he realized he stood no chance of quickly defeating the powerful Sun Knights.
If they could indeed be tracked by the Sun at any moment, how could they ever ensure their safety?
"Hiding for seven days is an impossibility. As you said, the Sun could locate us at any moment! How can we possibly stand a chance against the Sun?!"
Jeremy\'s tone was now tinged with desperation.
In the instance, Jeremy not only saved Bonnie but also befriended Nina, Heber, and Master Bard. He certainly did not wish for his mistakes to result in the deaths of these individuals at the hands of the Sun.
"Here\'s the plan. I can teleport you to a map located far from Nocturne City. You will have three days to search for enough energy crystals on this map.
After those three days, the Sun will inevitably locate you. By then, my powers will have further recovered, and with our combined efforts, there might be a chance to defeat the Sun." Janna proposed.
Although Jeremy harbored slight reservations about the class change goddess Janna\'s plan, he was also acutely aware that there were no viable alternatives to address the predicament at hand.
"Alright, that\'s settled. I\'ll head back to the desert outside Nocturne City immediately. Once I give you the signal, teleport us to the map you mentioned."
Jeremy instructed. With that, he vanished in a flash of white light.
The class change goddess Janna sighed slightly, "Humans are so emotional, it\'s really quite troubling."
Janna had initially hoped that Jeremy would quickly ascend to deity status, especially since she was aware that he had acquired Divine Consciousness. However, seeing him today made her realize that Jeremy was still a long way from becoming a deity.
At the very least, a deity should not be prone to such intense emotional fluctuations.
As another burst of white light illuminated the area, Jeremy reappeared before his friends.
Bonnie and Nina hurriedly approached Jeremy, their eyes filled with concern.
"The reason we were able to teleport out of Nocturne City is because I received help from a deity. We can\'t stay here any longer, the Sun Knights will soon track us down.
Therefore, I\'ve asked that deity to transport us to a safer location. If you\'re all ready, I\'ll signal her to teleport us immediately." Jeremy explained.
Naturally, no one opposed Jeremy\'s plan.
No one wished to remain anywhere near Nocturne City any longer.
They had already experienced the ferocity of the Sun Knights and had no desire to face them again.
Upon receiving affirmations from everyone, the class change goddess Janna promptly teleported the group to an unknown map.
Minutes later, Vice-Captain Betak arrived at the location where Jeremy and his companions had just been, leading a group of Sun Knights.
"There are still traces of them here, which means they left only a short while ago."
One of the Sun Knights concluded after carefully examining the area.
"If we pursue them quickly, we should be able to catch up. Sir, please give the order! We have enough Sun Knights to split up and search for Jeremy and his group."
Facing the persistent urging of his subordinates, Vice-Captain Betak let out a heavy sigh.
"Your approach is bound to fail. They must have allied with another deity. Without divine assistance, there is no conceivable way they could have escaped the trap we meticulously set for them."
Vice-Captain Betak\'s words left the Sun Knights utterly speechless.
They were all acutely aware that their plan had been directly empowered by the divine blessings of the Sun.
Without the intervention of another deity, there was no conceivable way Jeremy and his companions could have successfully evaded their meticulously laid trap.
"So what should we do next? Are we just going to let this go? The Holy One has expressly commanded us to hunt down the enemies of the deity!" one of the knights exclaimed in frustration.
"Absolutely not!"
Vice-Captain Betak\'s expression turned grim, almost menacing.
"I have just received a revelation from the Sun. For the next three days, we will be unable to find any trace of Jeremy. However, after these three days, the Sun will directly reveal Jeremy\'s location to us.
At that point, we will launch a full-scale assault and exterminate Jeremy and his companions! During these three days, you must prepare for all eventualities.
I do not wish for any unforeseen complications in our next operation!"
Vice-Captain Betak had indeed received a revelation from the Sun, and this time, the revelation was strikingly clear.
The Sun had not only taken notice of Jeremy\'s existence but also harbored an intense and profound loathing for him.
The Sun would never allow Jeremy the slightest chance to slip from its grasp!
