It was getting dark, and there was still half of the mountain left to be searched.
Jomaica couldn't stand the pain of being beaten all the way, so he sat down on the ground and didn't want to move anymore.
"Mr. Gambo, I can't walk anymore. Let's take a rest!"
To one side, Almore was panting as well. "Mr. Gambo, it's already dark. We can no longer continue searching. Why don't we continue tomorrow?"
Seeing the two of them neglecting their duties, Gambo frowned and reminded them, "This is a military order. Don't play any tricks."
"Mr. Gambo, I'm not playing any tricks. I really can't walk anymore," Jomaica started to complain. Almore, who was standing on one side, delivered water and food to Jomaica from the side, looking like a dedicated servant.
Gambo was a bit annoyed and wanted to berate Jomaica.
Jomaica was considered a big shot in the Flying Star Region, but he was nothing in the Sky Devil Region. If he failed to complete his mission, he would also be implicated.
Therefore, when Jomaica saw that Gambo and Almore were so dismissive, he was also dissatisfied.
However, just as Gambo was about to lose his temper, Jomaica took out a glittering jade stone from his chest pocket and handed it to him. "Mr. Gambo, this jade stone is a token of my appreciation. I hope you can take care of it."
When Gambo saw the stone, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he suppressed his anger. He skillfully took the jade stone, checked it, put it in his pocket, and then waved his hand.
"You can rest here for a while. I'll look for them alone over there. We'll meet up later!"
"Thank you, Mr. Gambo!"
The two of them hurriedly bowed to express their thanks. When Gambo's figure disappeared into the distance, the smile on their faces disappeared.
"D*mn it, that guy is too greedy. He almost took all the treasures my father gave me."
"Mr. Weu, we're also living in someone else's territory. There's no other way. We can only endure for a while. After this battle, we'll be fine when we go back."
While the two of them were cursing, suddenly, a patch of grass not far from them moved.
The two of them immediately became alert and got up to check it.
"There's something wrong with the grass. There are some traces. From the looks of it, it should be a large-scale animal. It might even be a human." Almore was rather capable.
Following that, the two proceeded along the trail. A hidden cave appeared in front of them. "There's a cave!"
Before they could approach and explore, a figure rushed out of the cave and into the nearby jungle.
"Chase after him!"
The two of them immediately chased after the figure.
The figure seemed to be injured. His movements were a little awkward, and his speed was affected, so the distance between them was gradually shortened.
Under the rising moonlight, the two of them finally saw the man's face clearly. Then, they became excited at the same time.
"Fade, that's Fade. Mr. Weu, that guy is Fade," Almore shouted.
Jomaica recognized him and his expression changed. He became excited. Of course, he was also filled with anger and killing intent.
After all, in his opinion, all the suffering he had suffered now was caused by Fade.
Now, the enemy was right in front of him. How could he not be excited?
"Fade, where are you going?" Jomaica was so excited that he tried his best to catch up with him.
For a moment, three figures shuttled back and forth in the forest.
Jomaica and Almore, who were chasing after Fade, were getting closer and closer to him, who was fleeing ahead. He was almost within their reach.
However, every time they felt that they were approaching him, Fade would suddenly exert force and distance himself from each other.
Jomaica and Almore had been chasing Fade for more than an hour and had run through several mountains, but they still failed to catch up with him.
