Love at the Wrong Table

Chapter 2142 The Poisonous Betrayal

“Heh, perfect timing!”

When Quintus saw Anna, he was beyond excited and exhilarated.

Magnus had already given his orders–ensure that Ann safely emerged with the antidote. Then, they were. to strike at the cultists of the Serpent Lair with everything they had, slaughtering them mercilessly until they were so terrified they would tremble at the mere sound of their name.

“Kill them! Kill them all! Make them beg for mercy on their knees!”

Quintus suddenly pivoted, aiming his weapon in a new direction.

The battle–hardened Wolf Warrior Unit, who had been feigning retreat, turned back with ruthless precision. There was no sign of weakness; instead, the air was filled with the deafening roar of gunfire, as the cultists of the Five Poison Sect were mowed down in an instant, their ranks crumbling under the onslaught,

Not only that, but the squad wore protective gas masks and had brought along military–grade blowers, specifically to defend against any poison gas the Five Poison Sect might release.

Dmn it! We’ve been tricked!”

The Azure Grand Protector seethed, his teeth clenched in fury. Watching his subordinates fall one after another, a sense of bitterness washed over him..

“Grand Protector, we can’t hold an much longer!”

“What weapons do we even have?“one of his subordinates cried out. “What are they using? We’re walking straight into our graves!”

“We’re idiots! We should have stayed inside, but instead, we chose to rush out and die!”

The complaints and cries of his men only fueled the Azure Grand Protector’s anger.

He knew they were doomed to fail, but the shame of not killing a single enemy–now that was something that would haunt him for the rest of his life. He would be ridiculed endlessly.

At that moment, out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Anna, who was racing toward the Wolf Warrior Unit, with Lydia by her side.

“D’mmit! It’s that woman! She infiltrated our ranks, caused internal strife, and stole the antidote. Kill her! I’ll take out my frustration on her!”

The Azure Grand Protector barked the order, and without hesitation, he charged toward Anna, determined to end her life.

Anna clutched the precious antidote to her chest, trying to pull Lydia away to safety.

But Lydia, a mere ordinary woman, had already been ravaged by exhaustion. She stumbled and fell to the ground with a cry as soon as Anna tried to drag her.

“D“mn it, I’ll kill you first! You’re the one colluding with them, aren’t you?”
