Chapter 1161: Everyone's inside

Meanwhile...

While the enemy base was in total chaos, with uninvited people roaming around it, Atlas's surroundings were peaceful. After sending Mark and Hugo inside the territory, he stayed at a distance just in case. In terms of fighting, he couldn't do any of that. He was also sure they would be running nonstop, and even though he jogged regularly, he knew they would be sprinting inside.

So, nope.

Besides, Hugo and Mark were already inside. If Mint and Penny were added to the list, Zoren, Benjamin, and Slater would be fine.

"I can hear a lot of gunfire and shouting," he whispered, although the sound was already muffled in this distance. "I'm sleepy."

Atlas resisted yawning, hoping they would finish soon so he could rest. When he managed to stop a yawn, he snapped his eyes toward the building several meters away. He blinked and blinked, his brows furrowing slightly when he saw some movement.

The remnants of sleepiness disappeared in an instant, hiding behind a tree. Peeking over the trunk, he narrowed his eyes to check who it was.

It could be Mark with everyone. After all, this was their rendezvous point. According to the gang member, this exit hadn't been used in a while, so Mark had to climb over it.

'I hope it's them,' Atlas thought.

Atlas waited in the darkness, and soon saw two figures came crawling out of the gates. However, they didn't go over it, but rather underneath, where thick, untrimmed bushes grew.

"Those are..." he trailed off, stepping out of the shadows as he approached the figures.
