Chapter 361: Chapter 279: The Final Battle Begins

"Ah... what am I even doing?"

The young man, having left Sheraya, kept sighing incessantly.

"Originally, there weren’t many Cores, only five, so why did I impulsively give him two Cores?"

The young man couldn’t stop sighing.

"I thought that if I couldn’t overcome him, I would just give him one Core and then flee, but why did I end up giving him two? Ah..."

To say he didn’t regret it would definitely be impossible, after all, one Core represented two whole days of safe and comfortable living in the Ruined City!

Originally, although it was not very likely, the young man indeed had the potential to possess ten Cores, but now, he only had three left.

"Ah... but there’s no leisure to regret it now." After saying this, the young man’s expression hardened, and his pace hastened, "I must... I must get to the safe zone as quickly as possible, otherwise..."

The young man was very clear that he had not killed Sheraya as agreed, but after failing, he had directly run away; he was essentially stealing five Cores from others!

Who could accept that?

Moreover, when the young man first encountered them, they found him right away, knew all about him, and proposed a deal under these premises.

Undoubtedly, those people had powerful intelligence gathering abilities; they must also be aware that he had lost to Sheraya and fled from there.

So, he had to... move even faster!

He had to escape to a safe zone before those people caught up!

Once he reached the safe zone, once he was there, he could be guaranteed absolute safety!

As for what would happen afterward, that could wait.

"Whew... whew... If I’m not mistaken, there are just a few hundred meters left to the safe zone, good! At least I can live a few more carefree days..."

However, before the young man could finish his sentence, his entire world turned upside down.

"...Huh?"

Not only that, his whole world kept spinning, making his head reel.

The young man was stunned, and his expression froze. He couldn’t understand what was happening, until... he saw his own body.

The young man finally realized that his head had separated from his body and, after rolling several times on the ground, had finally stopped.

"Ah..."

The young man blinked, seemingly wanting to say something more, then... he closed his eyes forever.

Then, three figures appeared beside the young man’s body.

"...This isn’t quite the same as what you initially said, Wen Huaxin." The North Korean soldier glared at Wen Huaxin and demanded in an accusatory tone, "You said you could guarantee that Sheraya would be killed, and that all ten Cores would be retrieved, yet..."

The North Korean soldier said this while searching through the body of the young man, extracting three Cores.

He then spoke to Wen Huaxin with a cold expression:

"Yet, not only did we not kill Sheraya, but we also lost a whole two Cores. Your plan... has failed for the first time."

While the words spoken by the North Korean soldier didn’t seem particularly offensive, there was no doubt that he was no longer as trusting of Wen Huaxin as before.

Their trust was originally built on mutual utilization of each other’s abilities, and now, this delicate balance had developed a crack.

"..." Wen Huaxin, too, was silent, his face ashen.

Clearly, this situation was completely unexpected for him.

After a moment of contemplation, Wen Huaxin looked at another teammate and asked:

"When Sheraya was fighting that person, can we confirm if Xiao Yi and Fei Ye were really asleep?"

"Well..." Their teammate also spread his hands helplessly, "It’s unconfirmable, as my ability can only monitor one person at a time. When we were observing Sheraya, we couldn’t know what was happening on Xiao Yi’s side. The only thing certain is that apart from the time we observed Sheraya, they were both lying in bed, sound asleep."

"Is that so?" Wen Huaxin fell into silence again.

"Why do you ask?" said the North Korean soldier, "Are you suspecting that during that time, Xiao Yi sensed Sheraya’s situation and stealthily went to help him with his ability? Indeed, since we saw Xiao Yi asleep, we didn’t use our ability to counteract his, making it a possible scenario."

"No, the likelihood is very low." Nevertheless, their teammate shook his head and said, "Xiao Yi’s ability has a ten-meter limit. To help Sheraya, he had to be within ten meters. I don’t think they could have detected Sheraya’s situation, rushed to his side to secretly aid him with their abilities, and then immediately go back to bed pretending to sleep."

"But, the possibility isn’t zero." The North Korean soldier said before turning toward Wen Huaxin, "What do you think, Wen Huaxin?"

"..." Wen Huaxin remained silent, seemingly deep in thought.

Afterward, Wen Huaxin finally looked at them and said:

"There indeed was a slight mishap this time, but it’s trivial; ultimately, victory will still be ours."
