Chapter 333 - A Non-solution (1/2)
There was not a trace of fear on Szlareat King of the Huns is onyou Kill me if you want!”
Attila the Hun had been dead for over a thousand years so Szla to the sword of Attila
Dayetia hesitated The sacred relic was right next to theainst her beliefs if she killed Szla when Xia co at Xia Lei’s bathing spot as she spoke However, she saw only a blurry view of the water and the trees Sniping Xia Lei in this environment seemed impossible
“Can you not kill Xia, Chieftain?” Szlaly at Dayetia
“Who said I wanted to kill him?”
“Then, just now…?”
“I wanted to injure him, then make him… Never mind You won’t understand if I tell you anyway Just shut up about this Don’t poke your nose into it” Dayetia put the sniper rifle back in Xia Lei’s luggage
“Not killing him? What do you want to do then?”
“Silence, you idiot! He’ll be back any tier flashed in Szlamy’s eyes, accompanied by a trace ofof it She was the marks-woman of the White Hun Tribe and was the fiercest in every battle She had killed at least 80 if not 100 of their eneerous to threaten her, no ht did not escape Xia Lei’s eye It was a struggle to lip-read their conversation in Pashto but his brain had uni power and he was able to decipher their conversation It was not a hundred percent accurate but thethe sniper rifle away signalled that he was out of danger for now He climbed out of the water and put his clothes on, then walked to the camp As he neared the caround It would be quicker for him to brain Dayetia with a rock at close distance than for her to reach for her gun and shoot him, purely because he could be much faster
Dayetia did not shoot She put a smile on her face when she saw Xia Lei return “Hoas it, Xia?”
Xia Lei s To have a place like this to bathe in is a gift froain in four hours Let’s try to get to the Ika Tribe by noon too to sleep first I just bathed so I’uard” Xia Lei went back to his blankets and took out his sniper rifle to inspect it
With gun in hand, he was not worried about Dayetia ainst him
Dayetia made no suspicious moves She slept in her clothes under her blankets
Szlamy looked at Dayetia, then at Xia Lei, and see but didn’t say a word after much hesitation
Xia Lei had seen Szlamy’s reaction out of the corner of his eye She had kept silent but he did not blareater danger of standing up to Dayetia and stopping her froh for her to have done so much for him since she was a White Hun too He could not hope for her to betray her chieftain and her tribe
Tihts roiled
‘All signs point to Dayetia not cooperating with , and maybe won’t let ht even betray e for benefits and the safety of the tribe It’ll be easy for? Will Szlaht me? Will I still be able to enter the ruins to excavate artifacts?’ Thoughts popped up in Xia Lei’s head one by one, churning, turning, twisting; he could not settle down
He should kill her, but he shouldn’t If he walked on with Dayetia he would fall into a dangerous situation and when that tiuarantee his own safety, much less rescue others He’d never encountered a situation like this before and it was giving him a serious headache
Dayetia’s eyes opened, just a crack, and she watched Xia Lei’s movements
Her movements were imperceptibly small but Xia Lei still spotted it He stood cal to survey his surroundings
Dayetia seemed to be assured and a small, cold smile appeared discreetly on her lips
After a while, Szlamy crawled out of her blankets and walked over to Xia Lei “Go rest, Xia I’ll stand guard”
“I wasn’t on guard for long Why don’t you sleep soo” Szlaloomy
Xia Lei pretended to be unaware of the situation and asked probingly, “Szlamy, what’s made you so unhappy?”
Szlamy sneaked a look at Dayetia and let out a huff or air “It’s…”
Dayetia awoke abruptly and interrupted Szla!” said Szlarumpily
Xia Lei s et it Looks like we’re all not sleepy Let’s be on our way We’ll arrive at the tribe even earlier like this,” said Dayetia
“Chieftain…” Szla bad would happen
Dayetia gave Szlah nonsense Mount your horse We’re leaving!”
