Chapter 246: Sneak Attack
“Alright, I’ll send you to the peak,” the dragon said, still looking at Audrey.
“Yes, thank you for saving me and sending us to the peak,” Audrey expressed her gratitude, looking into the dragon’s eyes sincerely with gratitude.
“Alright, there’s no need to be polite with me. I’ll be leaving first,” the dragon said and left without waiting for the others to react.
It disappeared without a trace, as though everything that had happened just now had been a dream.
“We’re at the top of the mountain now. Our priority now is to find Snow Lotus.” Audrey coughed lightly, pulling everyone’s thoughts back as she said that.
“Right! Our priority now is to find Snow Lotus. We can’t let others get ahead of us!” Kate added.
Klein and the others came back to their senses. They thought for a moment and nodded.
“Where is the Snow Lotus?” Klein felt a headache whenever he thought about the Snow Lotus.
Cole stood beside Klein. “I heard that the Snow Lotus has a lot of aura. That means it’s not easy to find.”
“Yes, I just observed the terrain of the entire mountaintop from the back of the dragon. It’s very large,” Audrey said the conclusion she had just seen.
“It’s not easy to find. We can only do a carpet search,” Audrey pointed her index finger at her chin and analyzed.
“It’s such a large mountaintop, yet we have to do a carpet search. We’ll definitely have to stay on the mountaintop today.” Hobart was a little dejected. He thought that they would be able to find the Snow Lotus quickly.
After all, they had reached the mountaintop the fastest through the dragon. If Snow Lotus was also found at this time, they would be worthy of first place. However, they did not expect the peak to be so big.
“It’s alright. There are many of us. Let’s hurry up and look for her while there aren’t many people on the peak,” Audrey nodded in agreement with Hobart’s point of view and continued.
Everyone was fully armed and ready to split up to look for the Snow Lotus when Audrey called for everyone.
“Especially if we look at some steep places. Perhaps the Snow Lotus is over there,” Audrey continued. “Before the sun sets, we’ll gather here and camp here for the night.”
Audrey did not have any hopes of finding the Snow Lotus today.
Cole and Klein were in a group, Audrey and Kate were in a group, and the rest were in a group. They went to different places, but when the sun was about to set, no one found a trace of Snow Lotus.
Before the sun set everyone gathered at the same place to explain the situation today.
“We went to the west, but we didn’t find Snow Lotus,” Klein said dejectedly as he crossed his hands and placed them on his knees.
“Even if we went to the south, there was no sign of her.” Audrey was similarly dejected.
“It’s the same for us.” Adrian nodded and said.
“Where is this Snow Lotus hiding? So many of us have searched, but there’s no sign of her at all. I thought that I could return earlier, but I didn’t expect that I would have to stay at the top of the mountain,” Hobart said indignantly.
The group soon set up camp here. After eating some dry food, everyone would rest in their tents and prepare for the fierce battle tomorrow.
In the middle of the night, a voice came from a little below the top of the mountain in the dead of night.
“How much longer?” Eve wiped the tiny beads of sweat on her forehead and complained.
Kaki pursed her red lips tightly.
“We’re almost there,” someone in the group suddenly said.
Fifteen minutes later, Eve, Kaki, and the others arrived at the top of the mountain.
Kaki’s gaze landed on the ground. Then, she narrowed her eyes and looked into the distance. She saw several tents.
“That seems to be Audrey’s tent.” Someone beside her recognized the owner of the tent.
Their voices were not soft. Furthermore, how could they really fall asleep in the wilderness?
Audrey lay on the bed. Her ears moved slightly, and she heard a faint sound. The next second, she opened her eyes. Her expression was clear, as though she had not slept at all.
“Hmph!” When Kaki heard the person beside her say that it was Audrey’s tent, she threw away the tree branch in her hand and quickly moved towards Audrey’s tent.
Audrey seemed to have sensed something and immediately came out of the tent, conveniently avoiding Kaki’s attack.
She stood behind Kaki with her arms crossed over her chest.
“What do you want to do?” Audrey regretted the moment she asked that question. Was she not asking the obvious!
The people in the other tents also felt the sounds coming from outside and came out one after another. As the group leader, the people behind Kaki also followed to attack the people in Audrey’s group.
Eve tried to use a battle technique to attack Klein, but it was shattered by Hobart who was beside Klein.
“Enough is enough!” Audrey said. She narrowed her eyes and looked at Kaki.
“This place has already been occupied by us. Don’t tell me that you guys still want to snatch it from us?” Cole yawned.
“Kaki, do you want to make a big deal out of this scandal? If you really want to, I’ll accompany you to the end.” Audrey looked at her calmly.
Kaki had lived under her shadow for too long.
“Hmph! Audrey! Just you wait!” Naturally, Kaki did not want to make a big deal out of this, because she could not beat so many people from the advanced class. Thus, after saying those harsh words, she turned around and left with her people.
