Chapter 178: Dangerous Area 

Rufus' POV:

After getting some useful information from Flora, I headed out to the equipment room to check.The skylight was very high from the floor.My heart sank when I estimated the height.

If Sylvia jumped from here, she would have undoubtedly gotten injured.I could see footprints and dried bloodstains on the ground.I followed the trace, and it led me to the forbidden forest.

The place was eerily silent, and I didn't see anyone on the way.

My stomach began to churn with anxiety and unease.

The bloodstains disappeared before the forbidden forest.

Just then, the sun began to sink into the mountains, and the mist grew thicker, enveloping the trees and mountains.

"I didn't think Sylvia would have entered the forbidden forest.There are no footprints here," my wolf, Omar, said worriedly.

However, that was precisely why I grew suspicious.

The traces had disappeared all of a sudden, which seemed to worry me.

"The footprints tell that Sylvia has run all the way here in a mess." I squatted and inspected the soil.

"It means someone was chasing her."

"Then, why have the footprints disappeared here?" Omar asked in confusion.

"They didn't disappear." I dusted off the soil in my hands and stood up to look into the forbidden forest.

"Someone has deliberately erased the traces."

"Erased the traces?"

"Well, whoever it was wanted us to know that Sylvia had entered the forbidden forest. They wanted her to die here." I sneered.

"There have been a series of traps today; each one, trying to kill Sylvia."

"But Sylvia might not even be in the forbidden forest.Besides, there are many fierce beasts there. I'm not sure if I can safely get her out of there," Omar calmly explained.

"What if Sylvia is in the forbidden forest?" I asked.

"What if..." Omar was taken aback.

I knew he was helpless and didn't know what to do.I ran a hand through my hair and sighed.

"Well, I don't want to take any risks when it comes to Sylvia. Even if there is a slight possibility to save her, I will go in and find her."

"All right. Let's go then." Omar grew wild.

"It's our duty to protect our mate. I was indecisive now, and I apologize for that."

"Thank you for your understanding, Omar." Omar's support made me calm down a little.

I soon turned into my wolf form and bolted into the forbidden forest.

The forbidden forest was surrounded by giant trees with bizarre plate–like roots.Their dense branches formed a thick canopy, blocking out the sky.I ran around the forest, checking every nook and corner.

"Sylvia, where are you?"

However, I only heard my words reverberate across the silent forest.

The night birds began to howl, and the branches swayed with the blowing wind.

"Don't go any further, Rufus," Omar gasped slightly.

"There are swamps in front of us.It might be difficult to get out if we got trapped."

Just then, I heard a rustling noise.I stepped forward and parted the banana leaves.

A grey wild wolf darted out.

Then, more than a dozen wild wolves of varying colors and sizes rushed out from all directions and surrounded me.

They snarled at me as their saliva dripped down.

Seeing their wild eyes, I could tell they were ravenous.

The wolves were only half my size.

Anger coursed through my veins.

I lunged forward and knocked two wolves down. novelbin

The other wild wolves immediately scattered and howled as if they were frightened.

I glared at the wolves fleeing away from me in fear.

"Imbeciles!"

Just then, the grey wild wolf let out a fierce cry, and the other wild wolves who had run away miraculously came back.

It looked like they had an organized and disciplined siege.But I didn't have time to deal with these wild wolves.I broke the siege, not bothering to fight them, and left the wolves far behind.
