Chapter 1172

Emerging from the forest were Crimson, Kruz, Adrian, and the others!

Ethan rushed over, "Why is it just you guys? Where's Flora and the rest?"

Why were they the only ones coming out?

Kruz stayed silent, not saying a word.

Ethan was getting pretty anxious, and just then, another group emerged from the woods. She quickly looked over to see Lance and Jason leading a group, carrying several stretchers.

On one of those stretchers, she recognized a familiar face - it was Selene, Flora's friend.

Word had it that Selene had gone into the forest with Flora for the initiation test. If Selene was out, then where was Flora?!

"Mike, take them down and get a doctor to check them out," Kruz instructed. During his time at Empire Base, he had definitely become more mature. So, with a softer tone, he added to Ethan, Amanda, and Karter's worried faces, "I'll fill you in about Flora's situation shortly."

With that, he shook his head slightly, clearly not wanting to discuss it in a crowded place. Everyone was smart enough to pick up on that, so despite their worry, they didn't press further.

Once Mike and the others left, Kruz spilled the beans about Flora and Connor's whereabouts.

Upon hearing this, Karter got even more anxious, "You mean Flora was taken?! And Connor went too?!"

Kruz nodded, "That's what Selene said. The mysterious person seems to know the truth about Flora's parents' deaths, which is why Flora went along."

When they found Selene, she hadn't passed out yet.

The young guy had kept his word, sparing their lives, giving them an antidote to the poison mist, and putting them to sleep before hiding them. Selene, being skilled in alternative medicine, had her silver needles with her and blocked her own meridians when he tried to put her to sleep. So, she didn't fall under the spell.

She even managed to stash some antidote, handed it to Connor when he arrived, and held on until Crimson and the others showed up. But eventually, she couldn't take it anymore and fainted.

Selene guessed the young guy set the forest on fire and released the poison to prevent people from going deeper into the forest. Maybe the heart of the forest was where his base was.
