Link remained silent.
Certainty?
Facing a direct challenge from a Level Nine Great Sage, what could guarantee a sure escape?
All he could do was take it one step at a time and respond to events as they occurred.
Link's silence made it clear to Sage Palo, Sage Serene, Sage Cody, and Jasmine that when it came to dealing with the imminent trouble, Link really had no good solutions.
The Four Sects Legions, and even the Revosorath Vanguard, had only one way out, which was to directly withstand the pressure and attacks from Great Sage Mitchell and the Tower of the Great Sage Mitchell.
It was the same for Link.
If he could hold out, then he would consider it a victory and reap the fruits of success.
If he could not hold out, then that was it, and he could only accept the consequences of failure.
And this failure meant many people would die.
The atmosphere suddenly changed, making even the air feel much heavier.
