Chapter 748
Kabreh’s guards were extremely smug.
The fact that the Wolf King was running meant that he was severely injured and no match for them. They were certain they would capture him by following the footprints.
Capturing the Wolf King would be an unimaginable achievement.
Thus, they shouted excitedly, their voices echoing through the spacious cave.
Luna heard the sounds behind them and was frightened, but before them lay another complex passage.
“This one…”
Her head was buzzing after running through several intersections, and she had completely lost her sense of direction.
However, Andrius was calm and confident, choosing paths and entering them without hesitation.
Luna panted as she ran while asking curiously, “Andrius, how do you determine which path to go?”
Andrius explained, “Follow… the wind. Wherever there is wind, there must be an exit.”
Luna suddenly understood.
There was a saying that ‘where there’s smoke, there’s fire.‘
Andrius was applying it in the real world.
They continued running, but no matter how far they ran, they could always hear the guards‘ shouts and cheers behind them, talking about footprints and not letting the Wolf King escape.
It was unavoidable.
The two were focused on fleeing, so they might get caught if they slowed down even slightly. They had no time to worry about covering their tracks.
However, as they ventured deeper into the cave, the light became dimmer.
Although Andrius was carrying a flashlight, the limited visibility made it challenging in the boundless darkness.
They could only see five meters in front of them.
Andrius could only rely on his keen senses to pick up the faint wind, which he used to find the exit.
However, this was not a sustainable plan.
Luna had not eaten for two days.
Andrius was heavily injured and affected by the μ–3 serum. He was rapidly losing strength.
Ten minutes later, their pace visibly slowed down to about a third of their initial speed.
Swoosh…
Clatter…
Suddenly, the noisy sound of footsteps approached, and dim lights were visible in the distance. It was the flashlights of Kabreh’s guards.
“Over here. There are footprints here.”
“The Wolf King and that woman must be close by. After them!”
“The Wolf King took the p–3 serum. He won’t get far. Keep going!”
“Over here. There’s another footprint in this direction.”
The shouts and footsteps grew louder.
“Andrius…” Luna was exhausted and was only still going due to her iron will. However, she was close to collapsing.
Andrius was not much better than her.
It seemed they had to come up with another plan.
After a moment of contemplation, he leaned close to her ear and whispered something.
“That’s…” A nervous expression flashed on Luna’s face, but she gritted her teeth and nodded.
Soon, Andrius disappeared into the darkness.
“This way!
“Look, there are footprints here. We’re on the right track.”
“That woman hasn’t eaten or drunk for two days. She can’t run far.”
“They won’t escape this time!”
The voices grew closer.
Then, a beam of light shone over.
Kabreh’s guards had arrived!
“Huh? It’s that woman!”
“Be careful. The Wolf King might be nearby!”
“Everyone, be cautious!”
The three guards were first surprised when they saw Luna, and then they were overjoyed.
However, their excitement was tinged with caution.
Click!
Clack!
Click, click!
They raised their rifles and aimed them at Luna.
Two men approached her while the third swept his flashlight around, hoping to catch sight of the Wolf King.
Unfortunately, the Wolf King seemed to have vanished completely and could not be found anywhere.
A few seconds later, the three guards reached Luna.
“Where did the Wolf King go?”
Two guns were pointed at Luna’s head, making her terrified
“I–I don’t know. I really don’t know!” Luna’s panicked expression seemed genuine, and her voice trembled on the verge of tears. “He brought me here and said he had no strength left, so he ran off on his own…
He ran off on his own?.
“Hahaha…”
