Chapter 976 The Travelers Besides Wynter
“Why are there two more people over there?” A voice shouted loudly amidst the sound of artillery.
“Stay hidden! I’ll go check it out!”
Wynter turned toward the voice and saw a male soldier, his face covered in ashes. He quickly dragged both Wynter and Whitley away.
“Quick! The enemy might launch another cover!”
und of bombardment at any moment. Come with me and take
The soldier pulled them forcefully. He was afraid that these two children might not make it out alive if he didn’t.
Wynter didn’t resist. In fact, she had managed to grab a sniper rifle from the ground as the soldier dragged her along.
This place clearly had just seen the end of a battle, and the distant sounds of gunfire indicated a possible second wave of attack.
Wynter had to quickly find the formation master or the object forming the Earthbound Formation. Those were the only ways to eliminate the remnant thoughts and break free from this formation.
The soil around the trenches was crumbling as fighter jets roared overhead. Just as they were about to be hit, the male soldier pushed them aside in the nick of time.
The explosion nearly left Wynter temporarily deafened. She patted her right ear and saw that Whitley’s
face was also covered in dirt.
As they walked further, they entered a place that seemed like a shelter. In reality, it was just a chicken
coop.
Whitley was still puzzled when the male soldier moved aside some haystacks, revealing a path down for them. It was similar to the experiences of escape rooms where the players would enter an underground
area via a ladder.
The further they went, the darker and more spacious it became.
Wynter was still observing. She hadn’t gotten a chance to speak when the male soldier lit a torch on the wall. More people in combat uniforms rushed out.
“Mr. Savidge, are you hurt?”
“No.” Presley Savidge wiped his face with a white cloth. “The enemy’s counterattacks are regular. Get the chief of staff. Also, make some arrangements for them.”
A very young soldier straightened up and saluted. He turned to Wynter and Whitley. “Comrades, come
with me.
Presley thought Wynter was afraid. “Go with him. It will be alright. We are all soldiers, Zayden here Is around your age.”
Chapter 976 The Travelers Besides Wynter
“I’m not as educated as they are.” Zayden Mullins scratched the back of his head shyly. “But young lady, your clothes are similar to theirs. Maybe one of the people inside is from your hometown!”
Wynter raised an eyebrow when she heard Zayden’s words. “Our clothes are similar?” Did that mean there were others besides her?
“Yes, but one of them is wearing a traditional Foplyanese outfit. We used to suspect she was an enemy spy, but she insisted she wasn’t and kept crying. The other three from your hometown wouldn’t eat or drink.
“The chief of staff heard they’re all highly educated students. It would be a great loss to our country if anything were to happen to them,” Zayden explained as they walked.
They had to duck while passing through underground thresholds. Wynter and Whitley listened to Zayden intently.
No matter how clever Whitley was, he couldn’t hide his innocence. He blurted out, “Boss, are there others who traveled here like us?”
“Traveled here? What do you mean by that” Zayden turned back when he heard Whitley.
Wynter handed Zayden the sniper rifle she had picked up from outside. “I’ll explain later. This suits you
better.”
Upon hearing this, Zayden’s dark eyes lit up. Which male soldier wouldn’t like to have a gun in hand? It helped them feel more safe and secure.
One of the chiefs had said he was too young and only allowed him to stay underground. He was only allowed to go on an ambush when absolutely necessary.
