Chapter 250 Concealmen (2/2)

But what about now?

The Druid sized up Rhode secretly because Rhode had his back exposed, which was a great opportunity. If the Druid could grab this chance, he should have a high chance in assassinating Rhode. However, even so, the Druid didn't act upon it. Rhode's odd movements had frightened him and he wasn't sure if striking at this distance would be lethal.

Just as he was contemplating to strike, another voice completely demolished this thoughts.

”Nice one, Master. Those useless trash who are only great fertilisers for nature after they die have indeed escaped far, far away as you expected.”

Gillian shook her tail playfully as she walked over. Looking at the appearance of this maiden, the Druid had to cancel his thoughts of striking and quietly observed further. At this moment, there were two enemies present and he had lost the opportunity to attack. If he chose to risk it, then it would mean death for him. Other than being patient, he had no other choices.

”Alright, cut the crap.”

Rhode gestured with his hand and whistled. Kavos led his men and arrived at the scene hurriedly with weapons clutched in their hands. Not far from them were the well-prepared Ophenian researchers. Although they weren't able to investigate the central control room, they still received many great loots in this historical remains. The researchers treasured these loots a lot and when some mercenaries tried to carry them on their behalf, the researchers rejected. After all, these were the most precious records in this historical remains and if these clumsy mercenaries were to break them, not even crying would help. Therefore, they would rather be tired and carry them and not pass them to the mercenaries.

”Move fast; I think those Druids have possibly gone to search for backup. We have to get out of here before they're back!”

Rhode commanded the mercenaries as he accelerated forward. From his actions, it seemed that he had totally missed the man hidden by the wall. The Druid, who had heard Rhode's words, was stunned. Why must I do it myself? I can just seal up the entrance of this historical remains and leave them to kill themselves. Isn't this way safer? Why didn't I think of this?

The Druid had already observed that the researchers were as weak as the mercenaries and their movements were even slower with poor alertness. From the behavior of the mercenaries, these Ophenians seemed to be of utmost importance to them…

The Druid worked out a scheme in his mind.

Although it seemed to take a long time, the mercenaries were actually moving really quickly. If it weren't for the injured Ophenian researchers, they would have already left this tunnel. And even now, most of the mercenaries had already repositioned to the front to prevent a possible attack. Rhode, on the other hand, was guarding the rear, and at the same time gazing at the entrance. The battle angel maiden who had given the Druids a major headache from before had already left the tunnel.

Hmph, these damn barbarians.

The Druid slowly inched his way along the walls toward the entrance.

At this moment, the Ophenians had also finally reached the end of the tunnel.

Now's my chance!
