Chapter 229



Most of what I’d said about Yuri was true. I knew his past wasn’t fake, but it wasn’t the royal family who investigated him for me.

Just as he was trying to stir up conflict, Dorothy had already seen through his past actions. That was why I knew so much dark stuff that no one knew about.

“How are your eyes?” I whispered concernedly, “You’ve already used the Eye of Insight twice today. Let us know if you can’t take it anymore.”

“I feel pretty good,” Dorothy said with a calm expression. “Or rather, I don’t feel anything at all.”

With the disappearance of the demonic shards, Frank’s condition gradually stabilized. At the very least, his high fever had steadily subsided. But he was still unconscious, and the situation we were most worried about still happened.

Master Kevin expressed his helplessness. “This is a classic case of a soul loss coma. There are too many soul fragments, and the soul cannot support a body’s movement. Unless we can find the remaining soul fragments and put them together, Captain Frank only has two to three months left.”

How could it turn out like this?

He had tried his best to save her, but he still couldn’t get a satisfactory result. It would be a lie to say that he wasn’t disappointed or anxious. However, facing a group of members without a leader, I had to pick up the spirit of a leader.

When Master Mary received the news from the palace, the plane rushed to the safe house at its fastest speed. Due to the situation’s urgency, the helicopter in charge of picking up captain Frank would arrive before six in the morning. The rest of the deported members had to wait for the plane that came in the morning.

This meant we had to leave immediately and get to the safe house before the helicopter arrived.

I called for the construction of the ward to be called off and immediately led a group of team members and Captain Frank down the mountain.

Dorothy and Master Mary needed to bring the captain’s exclusive supplies and equipment back to the ruins of the witch clan. Before leaving, Dorothy quietly told me, “Be careful of Yuri. He doesn’t look like an honest person.”

“What did you see?”

“I didn’t use the Eye of Insight this time. Perhaps I overused it unknowingly, so it didn’t respond to me. However, I feel that he won’t be tamed so easily. He’s an ambitious villain, and it’s hard to say if he won’t do something harmful to protect himself.”

Yuri was no longer a threat. I was more concerned about Dorothy’s eyes. “Overdrawn? Why didn’t you say so earlier? I shouldn’t have allowed you to use the Eye of Insight. It’s all my fault. I had a way to help, but I still put you in danger.”

Dorothy appeared rather cold toward this and did not want to talk much about her health. She only told me, “I’ll be fine after taking care of it. You, on the other hand, must not let your guard down. This is a strange snow mountain, and anything strange can happen.”

The night’s blizzard was as cold and hard as a knife. At this moment, I envied the members who could transform into wolves the most. Their thick fur and tough skin were the best protection.

Unknowingly, the eastern sky had turned white.

After recuperating for a short while at the first base, I was about to tell my team members to continue their journey when there was a sudden commotion.

A few seconds later, a team member hurriedly came to report, “Something happened, Captain! I don’t know what’s wrong with Yuri, but he suddenly attacked the team members guarding him and escaped into the mountains!”

“What?!”

I quickly sent people to look for him, but the snow-capped mountains were vast, and hiding a person was as easy as hiding a grain of rice in the sea. Yuri had used some unknown method to hide his scent, and even the wolves with the most sensitive sense of smell couldn’t tell where he went,

“An evil magic tool.” Master Kevin said, “I can feel the subtle residual magic fluctuations. This kind of trick is not very clever, but the open environment of snow mountains can better exert its effect.”

“Do you know what it is?”

“It’s probably some disposable item sealed with anti-tracking sorcery. The sorcery contained in this kind of thing is extremely easy to lose its effect. It’s usually a second-grade item used to cheat people on the black market. I didn’t expect to let Yuri escape by accident.”

Master Kevin took out a small glass bottle from his arms as he spoke. Inside it was a few strands of brown hair.

“Mary reminded me to prepare a backup plan. She always has foresight.” He handed the bottle to me. This is Yuri’s hair. I can track his location through it. Do you want to find him now?”

“No, we can’t take care of him now.” I returned the bottle to Master Kevin. “Let’s talk about it after we send Captain Frank back. We can wait, but he can’t.”

At 5:30, we arrived at the safe house, travel-worn. The morning in the countryside always started earlier than in the city, and smoke was already rising from the kitchen chimneys of many families. It was not easy to hide from people, especially a group of well-equipped men and women. It was hard to convince others that we were on vacation.

It was almost six o’clock. While we were anxiously waiting, the helicopter finally arrived. It was accompanied by excellent medical equipment and professional medical staff. I briefly explained Frank’s situation to them and watched as the helicopter rumbled away.
