Chapter 5 Proceed On Foot
Note: Hi guys, thank you for the patience in waiting for the update Chapter 5 finally up! And as I have anisation” The author said that there isn’t any special anisation’s name itself, so she said I can just translate it to the direct“Wave” But I find that a little… cheesy? So I used another word for “Wave” which is “Tides” So, we’ll go with “The Tides Organisation” then!_Enjoy!
”The engine's daed the power system of the aircraft, so it has to land”
Xiao Yan answered plainly He reh the structural plan of a military use aircraft power system out of interest
”Are you really a Rank B student?” Reeve stared at him in disbelief
”Being a jack of all trades butresearcher”
Xiao Yan was once told by his tutor that he has endless curiosity, but does not have the patience for extensive research This was a fatal flaw for a researcher
Meanwhile, the aircraft has landed sround within a deep forest
Once again, an anxious atmosphere spreaded across the cabin
Mark came out from the cockpit with a deep frown on his face and said: ”Hey researchers! Get ready to leave the aircraft, we're walking over to Base 14”
”What did you say? Leave the aircraft!?” Captain White has yet to recover froy to stand up
The apprentices gaped at Mark, waiting for him to tell them that it was all a joke
Mark shrugged, ”All of you can stay here, after all, it'll be a twelve hours walk from here to Base 14”
”Twelve hours——”
The atmosphere within the cabin was like popcorn in oven
”Twelve hours! Not twelvein less than an hour! And there will definitely be zo in the forest!”
Then, Heine stepped out froh a knife edge that tipped up everyone’s heart
”Let's go”
With that said, he lifted a box with raw uranium, opened the cabin door and headed into the forest without turning back
Mark sniggered while hauling up a box in one hand and said: ”All of you stay here then! I bet the Tides Organisation would love to offer you some tea!”
”Wha-What do you mean?”
The apprentices' face turned ashen
Reece glanced at Xiao Yan and handed a box towards him, and said solemnly: ”Come with us”
Without a second thought, Xiao Yan was about to follow Reeve out of the cabin but was held back by the senior who peed in his pants out of fear
”Don’t go! They may not be able to protect you! It’s best to wait for the rescue from Base 14!”
Xiao Yan took a deep breathe, ”Do all of you really not understand what’s happening now? The platforinally our supply station has now been taken over by the Tides Organisation and their sche the raw uranium back to Charles With the Tides' ability, they'd probably be able to track the location of this aircraft faster than Base 14 and for sure, they'll coanisation will honestly serve us a cup of nice black tea?”
”This……”
They were dubious
Only Captain White cao with you as well”
Once Captain White and Xiao Yan left the aircraft, those staying behind shut the cabin door heavily
Captain White let out a sigh
”Don't worry, their choice is not necessarily a mistake”
Captain White and Xiao Yan had seen the capabilities of Mark and Heine If the Tides Organisation planned to destroy this aircraft at any cost, both of theher by following Heine and his tea in the aircraft
The sun was setting, and a war a wide shadow on the ground The sky turned gradually into a dark shade of orange
Xiao Yan raised his head and listened to the chirping sound fro to their nests As darkness falls, the world sunk into an eerie silence Only a faint sound of Xiao Yan's ravel and fallen leaves can be heard
Walking in front of him was Mark, and the one behind hi Mark's footsteps for he could barely see the path before him
Suddenly, Mark stopped walking
”What is it?”
”Shh……” Mark placed down the box in his hands and drew out his knives from behind
Within the reen eyes stared at thely
Xiao Yan held his breathe He may not have seen them with his own eyes, but he had read about them in books
They are a kind beast called wolf They do not have ile They have powerful bites with a ferocious and cunning nature
Reeve turned her back towards Mark, siers in both of her hands
Xiao Yan did not knohich orst, zo towards wolves, a faint trace of fear started to rose in his heart The sound of Captain White's gulp was exceptionally loud in this tensed situation
The wolf pack gradually closed in and Xiao Yan stared at the in the wild
They did not howl, rather, they let out a threatening growl
Heine sloalked over to where Xiao Yan and the others were and stood before thee of deterrent force e from his body
He went down on one knee with one hand supporting on the ground and gazed at the wolf pack The silhouette of his back exuded an air of inbred arrogance, like a e of a blade and descent into darkness
Shortly, the wolves backed off bit by bit and disappeared into the shadows
How on earth did Heine Burton did it?
As Xiao Yan sighed out in relief, a noise of an aircraft engine sounded from the sky
Captain White looked up and exclaimed: ”Thank God! It's-”
Reeve ca him to a tree and hid in the shadows
Xiao Yan did the salimpse of the person beside him, he froze
