The Silent 588

588.Chapter 588

Just as Eliza and Nolan spotted the outline of Malone City, a tiny black speck suddenly shot out from the shadows on their flank, streaking straight toward Eliza.

"Smack!"

"Clang!"

Vexara and Nolan reacted almost simultaneously. Vexara's wing lashed out, sending the black speck flying, while Nolan's dagger followed in a flash, pinning the speck to the cave wall.

The entire sequence unfolded in the blink of an eye, leaving Eliza momentarily stunned. By the time she realized what had happened, the black speck was already dead, pinned to the wall. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a parasite no larger than a fingernail.

*Stay alert! There's more than one," Nolan warned, his voice sharp as he instinctively moved to shield Eliza behind him. Vexara let out a piercing screech, the sound cutting through the air like an angry roar.

Eliza's gaze sharpened as she fixed her eyes on the gates of Malone City. "Someone's corning," she said, her tone tense. Soon, chaotic footsteps echoed from the gates. A group of armed men stormed out, their faces dark with murderous intent, each wielding swords and sabers.

"Who dares trespass into Malone City!" The man at the front shouted, his gaze sharp and menacing as he stared at the exit of the tunnel.

He shouted, "Stop hiding and show yourself! Or don't blame us for cutting you down without mercy!"

Eliza shot Nolan a glance, her thoughts clear. 'The parasite that attacked us earlier must have delivered the message to its

master.'

Since that was the case, there was no need to stay hidden anymore. Nolan gave a slight nod and stepped forward, his presence commanding. Eliza and the others followed closely behind.

As they emerged, Eliza's gaze swept over the group led by the man, but the sorcerer was nowhere to be seen.
