At this time, the Mushroom Kingdom has undergone earth-shaking changes in a short period of time.
The originally ordinary city walls turned into towering giant mushrooms, and there were still small holes on them, which were exactly the size of the mushroom man's half-length.
The guarding mushroom soldiers also put on more sophisticated armor, and inspections became more stringent.
When the two entered the city with difficulty, the mushroom residents in the city were busy carrying boxes of supplies towards the palace, and Adam saw a familiar figure among them.
"Village chief?" Hearing Adam's call, the village chief of the second-floor Mushroom Village turned around and saw Adam and Adam. His face was also happy: "You are back? The time is just right. If it is later, we will lock down the country. At that time, no outsiders can enter.”
"Suoguo? Are all the mushroom people from other levels also back?"
"Yes, His Majesty the King personally issued the order."
While they were talking, Adam also saw some giant insects from the fourth floor helping to move some large supplies.
At this time, the village chief continued to ask Adam: "Does your coming back mean that you have a way to cure old Jace?"
"Yes, village chief, we came back this time to rescue Grandpa Jace."
Hearing this, the village chief stopped chatting and quickly asked the two of them to go to the palace. After bidding farewell to the village chief, the two walked towards the palace. Although the mushroom people they met along the way were still so kind, Adam could see the look on their faces. A hint of worry.
The guard in front of the palace had seen Adam, and after confirming that there was no problem with the two of them, they were brought directly to the king.
At this time, the king, Princess Tina, and some ministers were constantly counting the supplies brought back from each floor. When they saw the two returning, the king and Princess Tina handed over the work to others and came to the two people.
"Where did Xia Lulu go?" Princess Tina asked Adam looking at the unfamiliar Cage in front of her.
After briefly introducing Cage, Adam held up the antidote to the Imperius Curse and said to the two of them: "Let's go to save Grandpa Jace together first. As for what happened to us, I will explain it on the way."
On the way to the dungeon, Adam told the two of them what happened in Innistrad. When he learned that Innistrad still had the existence of the Archangel, the king frowned and looked at Tina with concern, and Tina Na's focus is also on Xia Lulu's origin.
"If everything he said is true, then everything Luther said is a lie, but why did he lie to us?"
"I don't know this either. There are too many mysteries. Right now it is more important to prove Grandpa Jace's innocence."
The four of them came to the dungeon where Jace was. Cage was very heartbroken when he saw Jace. His father would not have suffered such a disaster. It was all because of Fox. Nothing good would ever happen if he was involved.
Adam handed the antidote to Cage and motioned for him to complete it, while he and Tina controlled Jace, who went crazy when he saw the king.
With the injection of the antidote, the madness in Jace's eyes slowly faded, and he gradually regained his senses.
"Cage and Adam? Why are you here, me, where are you? Where is Fox?" Although his voice was still a little weak, Jace did return to normal, and Satan did not tamper with the antidote.
Cage described what happened to Jace. Hearing that his old friend was hurt by him, Jace looked ashamed, but the Mushroom King didn't mind. Instead, he took the initiative to go over and hug Jace: "When you get back, Well, my old friend, let bygones be bygones."
"That's not okay!" Jess's emotions suddenly burst out: "That bastard Fox, I must destroy him with my own hands!"
Overly excited, Jace spit out a mouthful of blood and sat back on the bed weakly.
Tina checked and comforted Cage: "He is not seriously ill. He is just physically weak due to the previous curse, and at the same time, the attack on his heart caused him to vomit blood. He can recover as long as he takes a good rest."
After hearing Tina's diagnosis, everyone felt relieved. The king proposed to arrange for Jace to rest in the guest room of the palace first. It would not be too late to ask him what happened when he felt better. It happened that he also had something important to tell the two of them.
After Jace was arranged, the king took the two of them to a conference room. After letting the others leave, the king took out a letter with the college badge from his arms.
After handing the letter to the two people, the king looked at their increasingly surprised expressions and said: "Now you understand why we have to lock down the country. The Second World War has begun. We can only make this decision to protect the safety of our citizens. "
"Are the Moon Worshiping Empire crazy? How dare they attack the academy? That is a neutral area recognized by all ground countries. If anyone dares to get involved in the academy, they will be besieged by all countries. This is common sense known to the whole world."
Adam's focus was not on this common sense but that the academy was under attack, but on the situation of Avril and Coco who were in the academy.
"Sorry, everyone, I have to leave first." Adam immediately prepared to leave for the academy, but now that he had no drawing ability, he could only turn to the king and ask him to let him use their pipeline to return to the second floor.
"Sorry, Adam, we have destroyed the pipelines on the second and third floors. Now only the pipelines on the fourth floor are left for catching some insects."
It doesn't matter if it's the fourth floor, at least there's no need to go back to the terrifying fifth floor.
Adam told Cage that he would take Mary away to protect her safety, and that Cage, who had lost his power, would be better off waiting here for Jace to recover.
Just when he was about to leave, the king stopped him again: "Wait a moment, I don't want to stop you but I have something to tell you. Please take Tina with you."
"Father? You..." Tina asked the Mushroom King in surprise, but the King interrupted her: "Listen to my child, you need to go with him. Don't worry about the kingdom. There are those mushrooms you created. We will not be defeated easily, and I asked you to go to the academy because there is an important thing that you need to do."
After hearing that there was something important, Tina resisted the temptation to continue questioning, but waited for the king's order.
"There is also one of our compatriots in the academy, and they also have many mushroom varieties that our underground mushroom people have lost. The war is coming. If we can integrate their power, I think it will be more helpful to us, and your task is Let them return to the kingdom.”
Tina opened her mouth but finally agreed to the king's request.
Adam also accepted it readily. After all, the other party was as powerful a partner as Xia Lulu, so the two set off immediately.
Cage, who stayed behind, looked at the reluctance in the king's eyes and said to him: "This is not your main purpose."
"Yes, Tina will only encounter danger here. I know from the last attack that someone has thoughts about Tina."
"Wouldn't it be more dangerous to let her out?"
"At least it allows her to see the wider world."
