Chapter 48 – The Real Hero Protects (1/2)

God knows how Elena was taken away, there was no sign of resistance. Only her cry for help awakened Lin Xiao. If you thought about it, this situation was very strange.

But now was not the time to think about it!

Tap tap tap… Several people searched for the sound and quickly caught up. They were getting closer, and the cry for help was getting clearer. The group of Jackalweres was not far up ahead!

“There’s a total of 13 Jackalweres and a really big one…” Caesar ran up two steps, hid behind a giant tree, and peeked out. “That, that’s the leader!”

“The leader?” Rosie heard and moved closer.

Sure enough, the leader’s stature was almost twice as large as the others. Its huge body was covered with various armor pieces, reflecting the moonlight, and was holding a broken giant sword in the hand. The ground seemed to tremble with every step it took.

The leader had a sword in its right hand, and in its left, there was a gray bundle over its shoulder. Since their vision was limited at night, they could not see what it was, but Rosie noticed something ——

She noticed that there was a strange silvery white in that gray bundle, like the bright moon in the dark night sky. There was no doubt that it was Elena’s iconic silver hair! The person who was carried by the Jackalwere leader was her!

“That’s Elena!” Rosie’s eyes were sharp, and she could not help but exclaim.

As if she was trying to prove her identity, that “thing” once again let out her voice.

“Let me go, let me go you monsters, help… help…” The voice was clear and ethereal, if not Elena, who else could it be?

Lin Xiao pursed his lips and glanced at Caesar’s and Rosie’s reactions.

He didn’t know how they felt after hearing that cry for help, but for Lin Xiao, it was awkward as hell. Couldn’t Elena shout with more heart? Shouldn’t you have some emotion, even if you were reading a manuscript? She was clearly taken away, but what is she trying to pull with this monotone voice?

But fortunately, Rosie and Caesar didn’t notice, so let’s continue on.

“How could this happen…” after confirming the identity of the other party, Rosie lowered her head.

Like her, Caesar was also silent and depressed.

“What’s wrong? What’s with your expressions? Pull yourself together!” Lin Xiao frowned and put on a tough tone. “The Jackalweres like human females the most. I will never allow Elena to be ravaged by these monsters!!”

“But……”

“I’m going to save her!” said Lin Xiao as he rushed over.

“Wait a minute!” Caesar pulled him back. “Lin Xiao, calm down first!”

“Calm down? How can I calm down? Don’t say that, it’s not your maid who was taken away!” Lin Xiao said frantically.

“Just calm down first!” Rosie quickly came over to mediate, “Lin Xiao, I know that your relationship with Elena is very good, but we have to think of a plan first, it’s too dangerous to rush over.”

“Plan? What plan? Wait for the Jackalwere to bring her back?” Lin Xiao was completely out of character, the rational him began to speak extremely emotionally.

Caesar and Rosie sighed helplessly and did not argue with him.

“Lin Xiao, you should know that the Jackalweres have the advantage at night. We have limited vision, but they can move freely.” Caesar rationally analyzed, “And this place is the Black Lake, we don’t know what ambushes are laying in our surrounding, if we charge in directly, we’ll easily become the hunted!”

“Caesar is right! Lin Xiao, don’t be too anxious.” Rosie also helped him speak. “There are 13 normal Jackalweres, and there is also a very powerful leader. Regardless if we can beat them or not… What if there are ambushes in the vicinity? If we’re surrounded by a lot of Jackalweres like last time, we’ll die!”

Rosie did not speak without thinking! There were only three of them here, unlike before, when they could count on the teacher to save them. If they’re surrounded by enemies again, no one will come to save them!

After hearing them, Lin Xiao lowered his head deeply and his tone became a bit gloomy: “That is to say… you guys are afraid?”

“This isn’t a matter of being scared or not! We can’t throw our lives away meaninglessly just to try and save her, right?” Rosie sighed and retorted. “We should think of a plan! Why don’t we wait until tomorrow, as long as there’s sufficient lighting, then we can ……”

“Oh, wait until dawn?” Lin Xiao interrupted the other party with a cold smile. “Miss, have you forgotten how the Jackalwere treated you?”

“Eh?

“With the Jackalweres ***, catching a big beauty like Elena, do you still expect them to be able to endure until the next day?” Lin Xiao was speaking word by word, and sobbing between each one, “You actually said that I should wait until dawn. How ridiculous… Do you know what kind of torture she’ll suffer through this night? How pure and innocent she is, if she encounters that kind of thing, it’ll be worse than death! Do you understand!?”

“Lin Xiao…” Rosie could not refute.

What Lin Xiao said was no exaggeration, because that is what Rosie herself has actually experienced.

Being licked, humiliated, and violated… For these kindhearted girls, it was a nightmare worse than being hacked to a thousand pieces!

“But…” Caesar wanted to say a few words, but he was interrupted by Lin Xiao.
