Chapter 105 Overlapping Dangers

In no time, someone brought the rope previously used to bind Calista, still marked with her blood.

"Find this woman and tear her apart!" Uriah commanded as he released the leash, unleashing the wolfdogs in the direction he suspected Calista had taken. Calista braced herself, familiar with the imminent danger, yet the intensity of this moment brought a sharp clarity that she was perilously close to death. This man has no regard for life. I want neither to die nor to be sold. What should I do?

Just then, a gunshot rang out in the distance, bringing a momentary sense of relief to Calistia, while Uriah's previously amused expression instantly darkened, his features twisting into a stormy glare. "Who's there!" Amidst intermittent static, voices crackled through the intercom.

"Boss, we've encountered a breach at Mount Goldfall... currently, it's unclear who... but there's a sizable group-" The report was cut short by screams, leaving Uriah's expression even grimmer.

Among the many who sought my downfall, who could this new threat be? Kallum? Impossible... He has already gone to the military district; surely, he couldn't have mustered such a force. Who then possesses such capabilities? Regardless, I can't just sit back and do nothing!

Though Uriah was momentarily distracted from Calista, his nature wouldn't allow him to overlook any affront. He swiftly delegated the task to his henchmen with a grave voice. "If you find that woman, there's no need to report back. Just kill her on the spot!" "Understood!"

"Prepare the plane. If we cannot hold them back, we need to retreat swiftly." "Roger that!"

As Uriah's men followed the wolfdogs toward a potential hiding spot, Uriah, surrounded by his loyalists, hastily departed the scene.

While Uriah was coordinating his retreat, Calista seized the moment to act. She tore off her blood-soiled bandage, skewered it onto a branch, and flung it beneath another tree to mislead the wolfdogs. She then quickly wrapped her wound with her outer garment to stem any further bleeding.

Soon after, the pursuers and the wolfdogs converged at the base of the tree, where the beasts ferociously tugged at the blood-soaked cloth.
