Chapter 265

The woman was nothing but friendly, chatting merrily from the back. “My name’s Eileen Fall. What

should I call you two?”

“I’m Wilbur. This is Ryder,” Wilbur responded.

Eileen smiled. “It’s nice to meet you.”

“What brings you here alone?” Wilbur asked.

Eileen sighed. “Don’t start. I’ve been so bored.”

“Why did you walk instead of driving up? Are you from out of town?”

“I can’t drive.”

Wilbur raised his brows, Were there actually people who could not drive in this day and age?

Eileen smiled. “I really can’t drive. My hands and legs stop listening to me the second I get in the

driver’s seat.”

“Ah, I see. That’s fine,” Wilbur replied with a chuckle.

The two of them continued making small talk as the car drove on. Around noon, the driving road

stopped near the peak and Wilbur turned off the car’s engine. “There’s no driving from here. We can

only walk now.”

Eileen got out of the car. “Thank you so much! I hope to see you again.”

Wilbur waved back “Goodbye.”

Eileen smiled, turning and walking along a winding road leading further up the mountain.

Wilbur and Ryder got out of the car as well, watching as she disappeared from their sight.

Ryder gripped his briefcase. “There was spirit energy in her.”

“Do you have to scope out every single person you see? I didn’t even realize there was spirit energy in

her.”

“It’s suspicious enough for a woman appearing on the way up a mountain on her own,” Ryder said.

Wilbur nodded with a smile. “You’ve got a point, but not every person with spirit energy is our enemy.”

“Just being careful.”

Wilbur glanced at Ryder’s emotionless face and sighed. Working with people like this was so boring,

and a pain in the neck.

He took a few steps up to the edge of a cliff and looked down

The drop from there seemed about a hundred meters tall. Wilbur turned around to look at Ryder. “You

alright there?”

“Perfectly fine,” Ryder said.

Wilbur wasted no time, leaping right off the cliff. A little over fifty meters downward, he landed against a

rock protruding from the side of the cliff and pushed off harder, falling even further down.

Ryder leaped off too, but he was holding his Alloy Dagger. Once he was out of energy, he stabbed the

dagger into the cliff, took a breath, then continued falling

It was a good few minutes later when the two of them finally reached the very bottom, and they made

their way further into the mountain..

Around evening, both men came up to the edge of a canyon. Wilbur stopped in his tracks.

Ryder said from behind, “Deacon Penn, what’s the mission here?”

“You’re my backup,” Wilbur said.

Hyder’s gaze fell on a hill across from him.

The top of the hill overlooked the canyon perfectly.

Wilbur nodded. “That’s good enough. Go on, and don’t come down without my orders.”

“Yes, sir.”

Ryder turned and ran at top speed, disappearing into the thicket of trees.

Wilbur smirked at the sight of the canyon. “I’m here now. Are you ready?”

He slowly made his way in after that.

The canyon was surrounded by lush mountains, but the canyon itself was devoid of any life.

There was a small lake, but the water in it was black and reeking of decay.

It was only when Wilbur took a closer look that he realized the liquid in the lake was blood, a congealed

mass that had been sitting in there for years.
