The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 836 Jax’s Doubt



Daniel wasn't joking; he was dead serious.

Standing at the entrance of this cave, he could feel it - there were a lot of ghosts inside.

In a place filled with ghosts, all electronic devices would fail, and every battery would short-circuit. If the batteries short-circuited, how could a flashlight work?

The more complicated the environment, the more useful the simpler things.

So, when it came to lighting this cave, torches would work best.

Because, here's the thing: ghosts are scared of fire.

Jax, unsurprisingly, responded with his usual cold laugh.Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

"Ha!"

After his laugh, Jax scoffed and said, "Daniel, even though we haven't gone into the cave yet, we stood at the entrance for a while. Just standing there, I could feel how damp it is inside, with a lot of moisture in the air.

In such a humid cave, even if you light your torch, the wood will get drenched once we enter and the flame will go out. Plus, there's wind in the cave. Do you think your torch can stay lit in the wind?

So, when we go inside, only my high-powered flashlight will work. Let me tell you, my flashlight is custom-made, waterproof, moisture-proof. It works even 300 feet underwater.

Your torch is just a waste of time. No way will it stay lit! My time is precious. I'm not going to waste it. So, don't expect me to help Nathan."

While Jax was talking, Nathan had already tied the branches into small bundles.

Daniel started a fire and lit the torches, handing them to everyone.

Everyone grabbed one, even Chloe, except for Jax.

"Jax, you sure you don't want a torch?" Daniel asked, smiling.

"Nope! I have my high-powered flashlight. It'll work way better," Jax said confidently. "Once we're inside, yourtorches will all go out. Only my flashlight will work!" Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

Jax took out his high-powered flashlight, turned it on, and shined it across the valley.

The opposite side of the valley was at least 500-600 meters away, but his flashlight lit it up with ease.

"Daniel, look and see how powerful this flashlight is. I can light up the opposite side of the valley from 600 meters away! Can your torches do that? No, they can't!"

Jax was proud, gleaming his flashlight across the valley.

"Jax, sure, your flashlight works great outside. But, once we're inside the cave, it'll become useless. And remember, we agreed you'd be the last to go in, to watch our backs. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

So, I suggest you take a torch just in case. If your flashlight fails inside you'll be lost in the dark. Worst case, you might bump into a ghost and wet your pants. That wouldn't be good, would it?" Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
