Chapter 409 Watch Out

From the depths of the pit, the splashing of water and the flapping of fish created a cacophony of sounds, oddly lively amid the chaos.

As the dust began to settle, darkness descended rapidly with the setting sun, cloaking the area in shadows. Calista had thought about approaching the edge of the pit to see the plight of those below, but the encroaching night obscured her view, making it impossible to see clearly.

The urgency to rid herself of the virus consuming her body grew; she was half–blind and uncertain of how much longer she could endure the affliction.

Touching her shoulder, she winced; the explosion had hurled debris at her, and she suspected a severe bruise was forming.

Quintus, snapping back to reality, dodged the hazards and sprinted toward Calista, admiration shining in his eyes. “Ms. Calista you’re truly incredible!” he exclaimed, his gaze filled with reverence. From that moment, he decided she would be his idol.

Seated and slightly amused, Calista could only make out a blurry figure approaching her when suddenly Quintus shouted, “Watch out!”

His voice cracked with fear, causing Calista’s muscles to tense as she instinctively rolled to the side. But it was too late–a bullet had already pierced her shoulder, sending waves of pain radiating across her back.

As she was struck, a barrage of gunfire erupted, targeting the assailant who had ambushed her.

It turned out Kurt had landed on a relatively shallow bank when he fell into the pit. Unlike others who might have suffered serious injuries, he emerged unscathed. Seizing a moment when attention was diverted, he used a subordinate’s back as a stepping stone to vault upwards, reaching a height of three meters thanks to his exceptional night vision and precise aim.
