The Lycan King's Fate Calling novel Chapter 1173

Crystal's POV:

Blood sprayed across the stage, and the atmosphere instantly turned murky. The accident made everyone fall into stunned silence for a moment, followed by an eruption of screams.

The stage curtains instantly fell, blocking the gory scene from view.

The host quickly rushed up to maintain order. "We apologize for this unexpected incident. We conclude today's show here. Please exit the auditorium in an orderly fashion. You can use today's admission ticket to enjoy a free viewing next time, and we will also send gifts to all who are present here today as compensation for any mental agony."

Rufus and I exchanged a glance, knowing that our opportunity had arrived. If we could find a way to sneak into the backstage area, we could discover some clues.

The scene was frenzied, and few people followed the host's instructions. Most of them just rushed toward the exit.

Soon, staff with blue masks hurriedly came to guide the guests to leave. Rufus and I took advantage of the confusion and followed behind them, blending in with the crowd.

The host had already left the stage, presumably to deal with the unexpected incident that had just occurred.

Rufus grabbed my hand and quickly pulled me into the nearby curtains.

The curtains were thick and opaque. As long as we moved carefully, the staff wouldn't discover us here.

The audience was noisy and thronging to the exit.

Various murky smells mixed with the pungent smell of blood filled the air.

I uneasily inhaled deeply. An entire day and night without rest, combined with my constant state of anxiety, made my head spin a little at this point.

Fortunately, Rufus steadied my shoulder and asked with concern, "You look pale. Are you okay?"

I shook my head, straightened my spine, and replied in a weak voice, "Maybe I'm just exhausted and my blood sugar has dropped."
