Chapter 1127

"Not today, thanks," Flora said with a shake of her head.

"How about we check in on the experiment?" Kruiz suggested with a hint of persuasion in his voice. "The first results are already out, and they're being processed now." "Sure thing." Flora agreed, standing up while still clutching her iced coffee. "Let's go."

Selene had just reached the door and peeked through the glass. Seeing Kruiz's attentive demeanor towards Flora made her sigh inwardly-Flora was indeed lucky.

Getting into Kruiz's lab was no walk in the park. And Kruiz himself was someone everyone wanted to be on good terms with. Sticking with Flora definitely had its perks. Without Flora's help, it could've taken Selene years to even get a foot in the door. Feeling the sweet taste of success without the struggle, Selene happily headed back to the square. Unfortunately, she ran into someone she really didn't want to see.

Jenna had been showing up at the square every day, determined to challenge Flora. If she couldn't find Flora, she'd just wait around. It was exasperating.

With her expression turning icy again, Selene grabbed her rifle and went off to train.

"Are you deaf or something? I'm talking to you!"

Jenna swung a kick at her, but Selene swiftly dodged aside, her eyes cold and steady on Jenna.
