Chapter 2533 Alliance

They couldn't help but be wary when Hefe tried to get close to them by revealing such information.

Sensing the growing hostility among Jared and his companions, Hefe frantically explained, “I couldn't afford to buy

medicine. I overheard everything when I was trying to steal them from Vibrant Health Clinic. I'm sharing this

because I'm looking to form an alliance with you guys. The mystical herb grows deep in the mountains and is likely

protected by spirit beasts. Without a doubt, obtaining it is going to be extremely risky. I'm alone in the group. I don't

have anyone to help me if I'm in danger.”

Although Hefe's explanation made sense, Jared remained unconvinced and probed further, “Why did you choose to

ally with us? We're not the strongest ones here.”

Within the traveling party, Jared and his companions were the least conspicuous. Two men and a woman alongside

a child didn't exactly inspire confidence. If one were looking to form an alliance, one would naturally do so with the

strongest in the party.

Hefe let out a wry chuckle. “That's because you're the safest choice. I know that you come from Rock Village and

hold a grudge against Cyan Village. I don't deny wanting to form an alliance with the strongest group, but would

they even accept me? In fact, they might even sell me out to Cyan Village. Unlike them, you won't betray me even

if you don't take me in.”

His words caused the hostile aura Jared exuded to gradually dissipate. The latter no longer harbored any doubt that

Hefe was telling the truth.

It was obvious that the circumstances had left Hefe no choice. The information he shared about Brutus was

evidently not a lie.

Jared's concerns about Hefe might have eased, but his worries for what lay ahead of them began to swell.

He had no idea what sort of mystical herb Francois and the others were looking for. Nevertheless, it was a certainty

that a spirit beast was guarding something as precious as that.

Even if there were none, the powerful demon beasts that roamed the mountains were enough to turn their journey

into a one-way trip.

“I knew it. There's more to the matter than meets the eye. I didn't expect Dr. Weiss to be searching for a mystical

herb. We're in for a whole lot of trouble,” Ali said, his brows tightly furrowed.

“Ali, why don't we slip away instead of following them?”

Talk of hunting for the mystical herb deep in the mountains filled Percy with fear. The mountain range was a

forbidden area for his people after all.

“There's no escaping. We're no match for Dr. Weiss. If we were to attempt it, we would be killed before getting far.”

Hefe got Percy to drop the idea immediately.

Percy's face turned pale. “What should we do? Once we go deeper into the forest, we'll end up being eaten by the

demon beasts!”

Silence was the only response Ali could offer.

Emily was overwhelmed with guilt. “Ali, Jared, I'm really sorry. Your lives wouldn't be at risk if not for me.”

“Emily, this isn't your fault. We may be searching for the mystical herb, but it's not necessarily dangerous at all. You

should be more optimistic. I'm sure we'll all be fine,” Jared comforted her with a smile.

Contrary to his relaxed demeanor, Jared wasn't as upbeat inside. Deep down, he knew that Francois was really

powerful and Brutus was stronger than all of them. He couldn't figure out why those two wanted weaker warriors

like them to tag along.

The villagers who live nearby are clearly no match against high-level demon beasts due to their low cultivation

levels. Yet Francois still took them with him. It is clear that his real goal goes beyond just needing them as security

escorts.
