Chapter 156: Something's Off

Staring at the blood-red moonlight in the sky, Matthew's expression was somewhat dazed.

He kept feeling that something was wrong, but he couldn't quite pinpoint what it was.

Matthew shook his head slightly, pushing aside distracting thoughts and transmitted the "coordinates" from his memory to Yaya.

Matthew hadn't shared this information openly at the camp, naturally to conceal the source of the intelligence.

Some things can't be made too obvious!

However, unexpected things can sometimes happen quickly.

Just as Yaya was about to descend, she seemed to sense something and suddenly said:

"Wait a moment, there's someone below."

Having been taught by Matthew himself, Yaya's way of handling things gradually became more like his.

She didn't like to rush in blindly; she preferred to plan carefully before acting.

Upon noticing the figures below, she quickly shared the information with Matthew.

More than ten people were gathered around a mud pit with a diameter of about three meters.

They were huddled together, not discussing anything, but rather stabbing each other, playing out a scene of frequent infighting.

If the people below knew that Adam Smith had offered a 5000-gold coin reward for finding the entrance to the ruins, they would probably fight even more fiercely.

The attackers had come prepared, striking with deadly intent, mostly aiming for vital points.

The four or five people on the other side, unprepared, were quickly cut down, leaving only one who was now running away at full speed.

Originally, Matthew had no interest in them. If not necessary, he didn't want to reveal that he knew the location and coordinates.

After all, in the future, when he knows a lot of information, it would be hard to explain without a reliable source, which could arouse suspicion.

But there are always exceptions.

The faint voice coming from the leader of the pursuing group caught Matthew's attention.

"Capture her, sacrifice her!"

Sacrifice!

Upon hearing these two words, Matthew's mind immediately conjured up images of many disgusting individuals.

An inexplicable fury surged through him.

He didn't hesitate for a moment, signaling Yaya to descend.

Matthew was eager to find out if these troublemakers had already extended their influence into Bay Territory!

Running for her life, Felicity was filled with regret. The sudden death and betrayal of her companions gnawed at her heart like a venomous snake.

The other party's unabashed intent to "sacrifice" only deepened Felicity's fear.

"Our bloodline is special; we must be careful to keep it secret and not let others know..."

She thought of her mother's careful reminders, never expecting that the ones to betray her would be childhood playmates!

Felicity remembered the savage expression on the face of the person who had pierced the captain's heart, filling her with an overwhelming sense of strangeness and panic.
